HOP GROWERS
DENY PACT ON
EMPLOYMENT
A dispatch from Portland and a
storv in a Portland paper to the
effect- that 17 hop men had agreed
to hire only Oregon citueus regis
tered with the employment service
of the various counties of the state,
seem to be greatly exaggerated from
what can be learned here, to story
states that this agreement wa
reached at a conference of the hop
growers with Superintendent Kells
of the Salem bureau; Manager Jones.
of the Portland bureau and mem
bers of the county court. The only
sich conference that Kells and
county court members know of was
the one held here early in tne wees
at a dinner at tlie Marion hotel
when the suggestion was put for
ward bv Jones and State Labor
Commissioner Gram that only Ore
gon citizens be employed in hop-
yards and through the reguiany es
tablished employment bureaus.
The hop men at that time did not
make any such agreement to the
knowledge of either Kells or court
members.
In fact some of them advanced
the contention that a great deal of
labor used in the liopyards is skilled
and experienced labor and that hop
growers could not afford to chance
confining their employment of labor
to such citizens as might register
with the employment bureaus.
There was in evidence a sentiment
that the hop growers would comply
as far as they could feasibly do so,
with a plan to assist In relief of un
employment of Oregon citizens by
giving them employment m ineir
yards when such employment was
available. But as to any definite
agreement being made by the 17 hop
growers present or any percent ol
them, there seems to be no definite
confirmation.

To the Editor: After reading the
report of the meeting held by the
Whiskey Women in tlie Issue of
Jan. 26 I wish to say a few words
to what I think of such feebln
attempts to cover up their desires
for alcohol or the making of money
by its sale, by attacking the only
law In the history of tlie world that
ever had any real control over Its
use.
Mrs. Weber's memory must be aw
ful short if she can't remember the
horrible crime and vice conditions
that were in full sway at the time of
the legal selling of liquor.
I am sure there are lots or people
today who can remember the time
when very few decent women would
dare go down town alone because of
the Insulting remarks the half drun
ken men would make.
Also there was more trouble with
bootleggers when every town had its
share of saloons than there la now
as has been proved by the reports
in newspapers of tnat time ana by
court records.
I will dare Mrs. Weber to name
five ministers who are publicly help
ing keep this country dry, wno are
not respected by the most of the
Christian people.
I would like to know what she has
ever done to help lnforce the dry
lews of this state and nation. Has
she ever reported any drunks to the
officers or reported any one she
knew was making or selling liquor,
has she ever refused to visit at
homes where liquor was served.
Those are the things that the peo
ple of this country would like to
know about the fakes who are try
ing to repeal our laws.
The government reports say there
were more hops raised in 1930 than
ever before in Oregon. It was print
ed In Capital Journal some time ago.

Of the major classes of livestock
in Oregon, cattle and swine show
annreciable increases tn the inven
tory number on xarins on January i
1. 1932. compared with the previous
year amounting to 103 per cent and
130 per cent respectively, according
to tlie regular annual report of the
division of crop and livestock es

conditions, which were unfavorable
In 11W0 continued unfavorable dur

of livestock.
In tlie case of sheepmen and
cattlemen the season Just past
brought no relief from the seeming
intolerable situation com routing
them a year ago. The early season
was generally favorable to a nor

containing a much larger portion
of old stuff. A prolonged and se

as well as feed and water supplies,
and a smaller portion was prime

been satisfactory.
Tlie vnfavorable market to
fleeted tn the decreased value this
year compared to a year ago, at
which time values were unusually
low. Ait cattle number Increased
in Oregon . from 772.000 head to
705,000 head during 1931, but tlie
average value per head dropped
from SM1.70 to $39.89. The value of
milk cows and heifers dropped dur
ing 1931 from $61 a head on Janu
ary 1, 1031 to $45 a head on Janu
ary 1, 1833. Similar decreases In
value occurred in every major ciass
of livestock, but the drop was most
drastic in the case of sheep, where
the total farm value at tlie present
time is only 41 per cent of the to
tal farm value two years ago on
January 1, 1929. in the face of an
increase in number during that
period of 4 per cent. Similar de
clines in values in the face of in
creasing numbers prevail in all sec
ilnn. nf tUm MnitAfl 3ttilM Hut nlilv

The numbers of cattle, hogs and
sheep on farms in the Uniiea ottv..J
increased during 1931 while the!
numbers of horses and mules de
creased. The number of milk cows
also increased, but there was a de
crease in the number ol yearling
heifers being kept for milk cows.

for differences In size and feed re

SMITH IN WAY
LEADERS FEAR
Tacoma, Wash., Feb. 8 (IPI Al
Smith's willingness to again accept
the crown was Interpreted today by
many state democratic leaders as
a serious obstacle In the road
their favorite presidential candtdati
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt
of New York.
The democratic state convention
here late Saturday instructed its
delegates to vote for Roosevelt for
president. Thus Washington be
came the first state to officially
llgn Its organization behind the
governor of New York.
George E. Starr, democratic state
chairman, dismissed Smith's state
DANA PLEADS
FOR 1000 MILES
FOREST AREA
Establishment of a permanent
primitive forest area of 1000 square
miles to perfect a perpetual play
ground unequaled In any other part
of tlie United States and located at
the. very doorstep of Salem and Al
bany is up to tne citizens oi ine
district and not the game commis
sion alone, Marshall Dana, associate
editor of tlie Oregon Journal ol
Portland and chairmen of the state
game commission, told the cham
ber of commerce Monday noon. He
suggested a council be formed by
tlie chambers of commerce of Al
bany and Salem with Interested
groups, such as service clubs and
spoitsmens' associations, to work
towards this end. Assurance was
given by Dana that game commis
sions of the present and future
would respond with resources at
command and that such play
ground would receive the coopera
tion of state and leaerai agencies.
la tlie district lying In what tt
known as tlie North SanUam sec
tion of the Cascades are 150 lakes,
at least 100 of which are capable of
the propagation of fish and suffi
cient miles of good fishing streams
to reach from Salem to San Fran
cisco, Dana said. Tlie area of th
proposed primitive forest preserve
is around 600,000 acres, ruauc
sentiment was back of the move
ment, the speaker said.
Dana devoted much of his ad
dress to the affairs of the atata
game commission and it It year
plan for the development of pro
motion ot wild life. There are In
Oregon more than 40,000,000 acres,
approximately two-thirds ol the
area of the state, that are uniiuea
for agriculture. The purpose of
the commission, under tills plan, la
to restore business management to
the commission. Dana said among
mistakes of tlie past was the re
lease of untold millions of eastern
brook trout In streams of the Wil
lamette valley without knowledge of
the adaptability of the fish to the
streams or the availability of food.
To correct this and other mistakes a
research department has been act
up. The same principle Is being
applied to the release of bids in the
state, with holding pens used to
keep the fowl until after the dost
of the hunting season. As a result
of this method he said that Marion
county had probably received mora
birds than the rest of the state al
together. Income of approximately
$500,000 a year is being utilized for
tlie furtherance of the 10 year pro
gram Dana said. He assured that
