Mexican Island (Continued from page one) Roberts from moving to Mexico pronto, he said. He hesitates to leave Salem while his children are yet In the schools here. "The climate I found to be won derful, " he explained. "While 1 was there it ranged around 82 degrees. I am told that, in the summer time, It never passes the 4 mark."

They work an eight hour day. Reformers have not, apparently, yet reached the Island, for prohi bition, according to Mr. Roberts, is one thing of which the Palmito del Verde does not boast. Like Omar, the natives pick out a con venient bough, recline thereunder, and proceed to forget the harvest ing of cocoanuts and similar an noyances.

"The crops were mostly harvested when I arrived, but I saw stalks of corn, which had been planted In January which were nearly six feet tall In the latter part of February." There are at present but few f-'alem people on the Island. Mr. Roberts . said, but many are ex pecting to move down as soon as they can conveniently do so.

H II I II II HI Hill IHMlJ Freight Rate On Wool Held Just Washington, March 16. Exist ing rates on raw wool from the west destined to manufacturing points around Boston were held reasonable today by an Interstate commerce commission examiner who reported to the commission his recommendations after Investi gating the complaint of the Bos ton Wool Trade association. The rates attacked by the asso ciation were chiefly the charges for combination rail and water hauls on wool produced In the west and moved to the Pacific coast for trans-shipment via the Panama canal. Though holding the present charges reasonable, the examiner declared that the railroad prac tice of refusing to halt cars mov ing to the Pacific coast at various points along the line to pick up small wool shipments, which privilege is given to cars moving east with all rail haul of wool In view, constitutes a discrimination against the rail and water traffic. This, It was suggested, the rail roads should be required to move. The report will not be made effec tive until approved by the commis sion Itself.
