DAVIS FROWNS
ON NEW STRIKE
Portland, July 21 m United
States Senator James J. Davis of
Pennsylvania, a Portland visitor to
day, said "I am satisfied that the
government is doing all that is pos
sible to bring about an agreement
of the strike on the Pacific coast.
The senator, a former secretary
of labor, said he had made an ex
tensive study of strike history cov
ering the past zoo years.
"No general strike has ever been
won " he said, "and a sympathetic
strike abrogates the agreements of
unions not affected by unsatisfac
tory conditions. Those unions who
nave participated, in sympatnetic
strikes in the past have always
suffered because employers cannot
maintain confidence in their men."
He said "the government does not
always talk about what it is doing
nor about its investigations, but you
may rest assured that it is doing
all in its power to effect a settle
ment as soon as possible."
Davis was appointed secretary of
labor by President Harding and
continued in that position under
Presidents uoolidge and Hoover un
til Dec. 9, 1930.

thought, reports County Fruit In
spector Van Trump who suys recent
examinations ot orchards convince
htm that there is probably a 30 per
cent shed instead of a 20 per cent,
but at that he says the trees are so
loaded it will probably hot ma
terially reduce the crop. He says it
will be about like a fair shed lor
a heavy crop of Italian prunes.
Tlie blight he states is all on the
Franquettes and none on the ear
ner Diooming Mayeues. in iacc,
he says he notices that when there
is blight on one variety it is never
on the other. The Mayettes bloom
about 30 days earlier than the
Franquettes. For this reason, he
states, he believes that the blight
is due to something in the air at
blooming time which one or the
other happens to catch as it blooms.
While he says the blight doesn't
always injure the pollen it does
in most cases and he believes that
pollen activity is in some way as

EXTRA TO PAY
JUDGE'S WAGES
The secretary of state will nut
in an application for $38,000 to pay
the deficit in salaries and expenses
of the 28 circuit Judges for the re
mainder of the year when the state
emergency board meets at Salem,
tentatively set for next Wednesday.
Tlie greatest part of the deficit
is due to the failure of judges not
taking the full salary reduction
suggested by the state legislature
and upon which the appropriating
body based the allowances for the
biennium. While 15 judges are
taking some reductions, the remain
ing 13 are collecting their full sal
aries at the present time.
The emergency request Is based
upon the present late paid judges,
George Flagg, deputy secretary of
state, announced, and If some of
them now taking a cut decide to
take full payment, more funds will
be required, circuit and supreme
court members cannot.be forced to
take reductions under constitution
al provisions.
The state legislature appropriated
$227,700 for salaries and expenses.
This with litigants fees collected,
averaging about $1,800 a month,
brings their appropriation for sal
aries -and expenses to $273,082. or
this sum $221,594 has already been
expended, with six months remain
ing.
The amount paid the circuit judg
es during June was $12,531.
In addition to this request, the
emergency board will consider a
deficit of $6,000 for salaries of su
preme court justices for similar rea
sons as well as an appropriation ot
$30,000 tor the motor transportation
act, and emergency funds for the
national guard as a result ot the
recent mobilization orders in Fort
land. BRITISH PROFIT
London (LP) Profit-sharing ap
pears to be declining in Great
Britain.
Of the 655 such schemes known
to have been started at various
times in the united Kingdom, tne
Ministry of Labor reports that more
than half of them were extinct last
year. About one-quarter of those
abandoned disappeared either be
cause the business was wound up,
or because it passed into new hands
with different ideas; the others
were dropped, it Is stated, either
because they did not improve busi
ness, or for other reasons were un
satisfactory to the employers, or
because the employes received in
creased wages or shorter hours In
lieu of the annual share In the
company's profits.
In 1919 and 1920, when profit- '
sharing was popular, 96 different
schemes embracing 33,000 work pec
ple were started; last year not a
single new scheme was launched,
and five old ones were wound up.
British experience seems to show
that banks and public utilities make
the greatest success of profit-sharing,
apparently because theli In
come is less subject to violent fluc
tuations. The biggest single scheme in B. lt
ain consists of seven banks with
14,700 employes; the average share
of profit received by the employe in
1933 was $280, an increase of 16
per cent on the ordinary wages, or
salary received. Public utility com
panies gas, water and electricity
had 68 such schemes in euect
covering 49,900 employes; the aver
age share of profit amounts to over
$45, an increase of 4.9 per cent on
earnings.
