(United Pruaa Stun Correspondent) TOKIO, Oct. 14. While It is gen erally expected that 'Jupnn's busi ness, which is ''still very much de pressed, will revive considerably with the beginning of next year, it seems that It will bo necessary to tnko far moro drastic stops to bring this nbout, Following the grunt drop of prices which took place bo mo months ago, and the great Blump in tho export trade, a great congestion of goods has occurred. This is booh very strlkinglyln the largo ports, such as Yokohama and Kobe, whore ware houses are crowded to the roofs with goods, ordered during the boom, whan every Importer figured that morclinndlse he ordered would in crease materially In value while In transit. This had become so com mon that merchants had coma to look thoreupon almost as a fixed law of trade. Consequently, whon the slump In prices occurred, thousands and thousands ot tons of goods or dered mainly for speculation, ar rived, tholr prices on arrival being considerably lower than when the hnd been ordered. The consequonac was that Is many cases the consignees refusod to accept delivery, while In others they were unable to secure the nocessnry funds from the banks, as theso became extremely tight the moment the bottom dropped out of tho market. course, bo Impossible for the govern ment to advance fufids forover, nnd the only real effect will be to make FOUR YEARS A HUBDY ' -' 'I Poalna aa a man to erada partla ef thl tlnmi, Jaeqnellna Oay, an Indian irl. married bar lrl pal and worked in a nlailoB for (oar reara.

Re finer announced a drop today of $1 a hundred In tho price of sugar, mak- Ine a new retail nrlce of 14 cents a pound. lit take just so much longer for bust ncss to get bnck to a sound basis. In Some little relief has been obtained . In some coses by reshlpment of re cently imported goods to foreign countriec. and many a ton ot mer ! chmidlse made the trip back to Amer J lea after It had been landed on the docks of Yokohama or Kobe. The warehouses remain crowded, how ever, nnd tho existing glut becomes ! dully greater as the output of Japan' ess factories continues to add there to. To offset this the leaders of I mnny industries have restricted their ! production by operating only part j time or by closing altogether. Thus ' tho cotton mills run only 60 per cent capacity. The one step which seems obvious ly necessary, namely, to get rid of tho glut by selling the accumulated goods at lower prices, even at a loss, if necessary, Is the one step which the business community will not tnko. nnd in this attitude it is up hold by the government, which has advanced tremendous sums to this nnd that Industry for the purpose of koeping up the utterly abnormal sit uation. While this may postpone the day of reckoning, !t will, of tho meantime, coincern after concern Is going under, some of them large ones. The government, which ts run almost exclusively in the interest of big business, is doing whnt It can to encourage vnrlous combination for restraint of competition and uphold ing of prices, with the result that the general public sees little benefit from the Blump In prices. LEGION'S WORK IS IMPORTANT ERSKINE REPORTS CONVENTION ON fapuiii-Kn Policy Adopted At Cleve land Anil Attltilile In Itegard To IndiiHtilal Dinpute I're-Kniinent Among Act of Kx-H;rvlce Men Belief that the work accomplished by tho American Legion at its na tional convention in Cleveland will prove of great benefit not only to the legion posts throughout the country, but to the nation a a whole, was ex- preHsed today by Charles W. Ersklne, one of the Oregon delegation, just returned from attending the conven tion. Of chief importance to the coast states, Mr. Ersklne said, was the recommendation regarding Amer ica' Japanese policy. This suggests that the present "gentlemen's agree ment" between the two nations limit ing immigration, be abrogated, the exclusion of "picture brides," and a measure to prevent all future Immi gration from Japan. This report brought In by the committee on Americanization, of which Mr. Ers klne headed one of the sub-commit tees, met with determined resistance from the New York and the Hawaiian delegations. If the convention's recommenda tion is put Into effect, November 11 Armistice day, will be made a nation al holiday. On this day ex-service men are requested to wear the offi cial flower of the legion, the red poppy. The policy of Wie legion regarding industrial disputes Is clearly defined In a statement by the national com mander, which specifies absolute neutrality in all disputes between capital and labor, complete freedom of every member of the legion to act as an individual according to his opinions In such matters and express es the readiness ot the legion at all times and without partiality to any party to stand for the preservation of law and order. More vigorous action on the part of the government in dealing with enemy aliens and more rigid en forcement of the laws covering eva sion of the draft. The feeling that a large standing army would uneconomic and un American Is the keynote of the le gion's policy on military affairs. Uni versal military training, however, was endorsed. The bonus bill passed by the bouse was reported on by the committee on legislation and a determined cam paign will be made to push the bill through the senate. Mr. Erskine's report In full will be given at the next meeting ot Percy A. Stevens post. SCHOOL BOARD FILLS VACANCY GEOKGE I). GOVE NAMED AS SUCCESSOR TO J. 1.

CROWD BRAVES COLD TO SEE STONE PLACED MANY USE TROWEL AT SERVICES ' BISHOP IS SPEAKER Building IlHcliurxe Debt To Future, Ho Declare Hollow In Corner stone of M. K. Church Luilea With Varlrty of Mementoes. Ministers present at The Dalles district conference, which closed here last night, were among the crowd ot nearly 300 which attended the cor nerstone laying services at the site of Bend's new $40,000 Methodist church at the 'corner of Bond and Kansas yesterday afternoon.

Caylor of Bend, Bishop W. O. Shep ard of Portland laid the stone, deliv ering the address of the day preced ing the ceremony. Due to the chilly afternoon, the services were some what condensed and covered less than an hour Instead of the hour and half which had originally been al lotted for the program. That the construction of the new church is not to be considered pri marily as a perpetuation of Method Ism, but more properly as a step in Bend's civic and religious develop ment, was the declaration of Bishop Shepard in his address. The build ing of schools and churches is, in part, a discharge of the debt which the people of today owe to the gen erations ot the future, he empha- sized. Memento Box Filled. Following musical selections by a male quartet composed of Herbert Sess. Dr. L. W. Gatchell, O. A. Thor son and P. J. Chapman, prayer by Rev. Pemberton, and responsive reading, led by Rev. W. H. H. For syth, Bishop Shepard's address was given. E. D. Gilson then placed in the hollow chiseled In the stone an iron box, hermetically sealed, con taining mementoes ot the present tor the generation which will some day open the stone. Waterproofing and asbestos will protect the contents. In addition to copies of local and Portland newspapers, the box con tains a Bible, the Methodist Disci pline, a copy of the Bend Methodist, the annual church budgets ot 1919 and 1920, the Shevlin Equalizer, the story ot the Pilot Butte Inn, coins running in value from 1 cent to $2.50, the 1917 High School Pilot, photographs ot Bend buildings and Central Oregon farm and mountain scenery, a copy of the Bend cltr charter, financial statements by tho local banks and copies of the corner stone laying program.

Howarth, Mr. Fox, Mr. Jacobs, Mr. Nlswonger, Mr. Watklns, Mr. Hoover and Mr. Cayler. The stone, cut from rock quarried near Bend, is a rich brown and bears the simple inscription, "First Meth odist Episcopal Church. 1920." It is let into the brick wall, facing oa Bond.
