A Rank
The Capital Journal is in receipt of a letter from a prom
inent citizen of Dallas setting forth the effect of the lumber
code upon his community so much dependent upon its lum
ber mill. The letter reads as follows:
The Willamette Valley Lumber
uanas ana tne 300 men employed by the company have to depend upon
the same. By exercising unusual enterprise and initiative, the company
has continued throughout the depression to work the past three years day
and night shifts, the only mill In this section that has so functioned.
The lumber code, a code backed by Washington lumbermen (West
coast Lumber Ass n.) whose plants
tag for three years to sell their lumber
wnen 10 work ana now to work, lorcing tne discharge. Instead of the em
ployment of men.
Companies such as the Willamette Valley Lumber company, which
managed to sell their product in hard times, are asked to shut down al
though filled with orders. By shutting them down to one shift these
Washington lumbermen might get some of their orders, make a shortage
of lumber, so prices can be raised, despite the fact that hundreds of work
men are thrown out of employment.
The Dallas workmen have been paying for small homes for years,
they have been paying taxes, sending their children to school, and in
other ways upbuilding the community. If they lose their work, there Is
no other employment for them, they must go into the bread lines. What
Is to become of them?
What Is wrong with the NRA? or
It be the West Coast Lumber association? What I do know, it is not
President Roosevelt's Idea or wish, which is to put men at work and not
take away their jobs.
Men must work, families must eat. Down with a system that won't let
us work, won't let us eat. These are strong words, but things are desper
ate in Dallas. ,
Certainly prosperity cannot be created by further in
crease in unemployment or by a shifting to remote sections
the manufacture of products consumed locally. This is
certainly a strange way to stabilize an industry. It is a pen
alizing of efficiency to award the inefficient, the punish
ment of those who have kept the wheels turning during de
pression to award those who have been idle.
If the appeal to General Johnson and the NRA fails, the
city of Dallas as well as the lumber company and its em
ployes should appeal to the president.
Recognizing Russia
President Roosevelt has taken initial steps towards dip
lomatic recognition of the Russian government by inviting a
conference to discuss issues between the two countries: The
move is to be commended and probably would have been
taken months ago save for the press of emergency matters.
American attitude towards Russia has been one of folly
that has reacted detrimentally to the United States through
loss of commerce and markets. Russia has a stabilized gov
ernment that has been in power for 16 years, and the form of
government is none of our business as long as it docs not
interfere with our own government.
We may be opposed to bolshcvism, to- sovietism, to com
munism, but our prejudices should not permit us to spite our
selves. The Russians are equally opposed to capitalism, but
that does not prevent them from dealing with capitalistic
countries or the latter from recognizing Russia.
We do not approve of the feudal absolutism of Japan, the
anarchy of China, or of the fascism that has produced the
dictatorships of Mussolini, Hitler, Horthy and Pilsudski, but
that has not prevented our recognition of their governments.
And we do not wait 48 hours to recognize the revolutionary
governments that come and go in Latin America. Recogni
tion does not mean endorsement. It means protection for
nationals and for commerce.
Russia long ago dropped the obnoxious policy of inter
ference abroad by propaganda to spread the proletariat revo
lution; and confined its energies to trying to make a success
of the soviet experiment in Russia, thereby removing the
chief obstacle to recognition, a fact realized by every nation
except America.
Continuation of
Farmers Strike

He urged state association presi.

Immediately available as to the de

refuse to accept, Reno said, what he
termed the "many nostrums the

(Copyright, 1833. 07 Paul Utlloni
Washington, Oct. 21 These cur.
rent stock market hearings have not
been very sensational because the
wall Strceters have found out the
secret of how to act before senate
committees.
The Mitchells and the Morgans
came down here last spring and
tried to talk their way through
alone. It did not work very well.
The new . troop of witnesses Is
working an Inside system which very
effectively eases the spanking they
are getting.
The private banker, Clarence Dil
lon, worked it so well that the com
mittee patted him on the back when
he left and told him what a good
retiow ne was.
Flowers The secret of Dillon's
success was his disarming approval
of what the committee was doing,
Prosecutor Pecora could pick n
fights with him. -
Mr. Dillon believed that all cor
porations should be made to publish
truthful statistics concerning their
financial condition instead of the
crudely evasive statements they
publish now. That happens to be one
of the outstanding things the com
mittee is working for. Other things
iouna mm similarly sympathetic.
some of his wall Street friends
may pass him by back In New York
for his heresy, but outside of that
the recommendation will cost him
nothing.
It brought smiles or words of ap
proval frcm all the committee mem.
bers save one. That one was Senator
Couzcns who growled about "Flow
ers being distributed around here,"
and left.
Murder The technique of Albert
H. Wiggin was even more cooper
ative.
As one wag remarked to Pecora,
his questions were generally some
thing like this:
"Now, Mr. Wiggin, before you com
mitted this murder, if you did com
mit murder, you probably disembow
eled the victim, "eh?"
And Mr. WiRgin would generally
nod his head and answer meekly:
"Yes, I probably did."
"That's fine," Mr. Pecora would
say, starting the question all over
again.
It left no room for quarreling or
fighting, but only for a little by
play about whether you could really
call it murder or manslaughter.
Just where the Wall Streeters
found out about this way of doing it
Is hard to say. Mathew Brush was
the only witness to act that way last
spring and he escaped unscathed. It
is probable that his experience fur
nished the background for the new
deal in Wall Stret witnesses.
But what is probably more im
portant Is the fact that the new wit
nesses had the shrewdness to em
ploy skilled publicity men to advise
tnein.
In that they were following a ten,
dency of the new deal itself, where
H10 department Is without good pub
licity arvice.
Arrangement Pals of Ferdinand
Pecora say he will get Mr. Roose
velt's appointment as federal dis
trict attorney in New York If he
loses out in the city election fight.
A little understanding to that ef
fect is supposed to have been made
on the inside before Pecora got into
tne MrKee fight.
At least, some of the Pecora peo
ple look on It as an understanding.
Perhaps you could not call it a deal.
but just a little half vague promise.
That is the way those things are
usually worked.
It means Pecora has nothing to
worry about no matter how the elec.
tion goes.
Drama? Some people have doubt.
cd the authenticity of a recent yarn
about Mr. Roosevelt s publicity ad
visers manufacturing the drama in
his American Legion convention ap
pearance at Chicago.
Mr. Roosevelt s decision to go to
Chicago was made fully a month
before tho convention opened. He
made a promise to National Com
mander Johnson at that early date.
and did not make up his mind to go
on the spur of the moment as ad
vertised. What happened on the Inside was
this:
Johnson was taking a little vaca
tion In the Canadian wilds fully five
weeks before the convention. He
heard that Mr. Roosevelt might not
go and thereupon hit the trail for
Washington. He found the President
ill in bed, but managed to get an
audience in the sick-room.
The President told him flatly that
he would go no matter what happen
ed. It was agreed the decision should
not be announced.
From that time until the day the
President left Hyde park for Chi
cago, the White House continuously
denied that the President would
make the trip. Some of his associates
were afraid that he might encounter
difficulties because of his economy
stand, but their advice was never
seriously considered.

STAYTON SEEKS
STREET GRADING
County Commissioners Smith and
Melson and County Engineer Swart
were at Stayton yesterday afternoon
looking over some work which the
city there desires done on the streets
including grading of some additional
block of city streets and the prob
lem of drainage was looked over.
Stayton lies in flat surroundings
which in some instances causes dif
ficulty in working out the drainage
problem for street improvements.
But another bigger problem facing
the county court right now Is to de
termine where Stayton will land un
der the new law doing away with
road districts and placing county
road districts all in one district.
Stayton had always remained as a
road district, the county handling
the work like In other road districts.
But the new setup, where there Is
only one road district in the county,
makes It problematical as to what
to do In the case of Stayton. Com- j
mlssloner Smith said it had not been
worked out as yet but the present 1
work will go ahead as In the past.
Some decision as to Stayton's sta
tus in this regard will probably be
reached before the first of the year
when it is expected the new law will
be put fully into effect and all road
districts and road district funds
wiped off the county's books.

refuse to believe it. In spite of all
that happens, and all that some
wise ones may say, we still believe
that a wise and loving God governs
the universe. Like the English
hymn writer we say:
"Blind unbelief is sure to err
And scan his work in vain;
God is his own interpreter,
And he will make it plain."
The apostle Paul has a saying
that sometimes sounds to us unbe
lievable. He says, "AH things work
together for good to them that love
God." It would seem to us that
some things work for anything but
good. But courage and fortitude
are not developed by sailing on a
summer sea. Faith, hope and pa
tience are the precious fruits of
trials nobly borne. Strength of
soul Is more valuable than strength
of body and adversity courageously
endured develops this strength, Aft

LESLIE BEATEN BY
OREGON CITY, 20-0
Oregon City Junior high's gridiron
squad, showing evidence of having
had much more experience than
their opponents, defeated Leslie Jun
ior high on Ollnger field Friday af
ternoon 20 to 0. The visitors scored
touchdowns in the first, second and
fourth periods. After being consist
ently fooled during the first half by
a reverse play of Oregon City, which
was directly responsible for the two
touchdowns, Leslie presented a
strong defense in the second half
and should have held the visitors''
scoreless during the final two per
iods. However, an Intercepted pass
enabled Oregon City to chalk up its
final score.
Leslie showed offensive power at
times, advancing on two or. three
occasions deep into Oregon City ter
ritory. The" scoring punch was lack
ing however. Team work improved
as the game progressed and It is ex
pected the squad will function well
before the end of the season.
The starting lineup for Leslie was

ROOKS SWAMPED BY
SOUTHERN OREGON
Corvallls, Oct. 21 VP) Smashing
the rooks with everything in the
book of football strategy, Southern
Oregon Normal of Ashland com
pletely over-ran the Oregon State
frosh here Friday to the tune of a
39-0 score.
The Sons from Ashland scored In
every period of the game. Only in
rare flashes of defensive power were
the rooks able to offer resistence.
Never did they offer a serious threat
to score. They came no closer to the
Sons' goal than the 20-yard line,
and there one of their passes was
intercepted.
At the kickoff opening the second
half, Rasmussen, Normal back, rac
ed 65 yards to a touchdown. McAn
ltch, sub halfback, scored on another
spectacular run for 55 yards on an
Intercepted pass in the last period.

ond raid within a week on an In
diana city police station, placed In
the hands of gunmen today most of
the armament of the Peru police
force.

tion Inst Saturday night, three gun
men obtained a machine gun, rifles
and a number of revolvers.
One of the men who confronted
Patrolmen Eldon Chittum and Ed

told them, "I haven't killed any one
for a week and I ought to shoot
you." No shots were fired.

with a companion, said they re
sembled Charles Mackley, one of 10
convicts who escaped from Indiana

Harry Copeland, on parole from the
prison. Mackley and Copeland face
murder warrants in connection with
