THE BOARDMAN MIRROR VOMME IV BOARDMAN. MORROW COUNTY, OREGON FRIDAY OCTOBER 24, 1924 DAWES HAS SCHEME TO HELPJARMERS Impartial Commission Held the Chief Reliance for Soil Problems. Portland, Or. (Special). Common sonae will solve the problems of the American farmer, just as it has open ed the way for rehabilitation of Eur ope, according to Charles G.. Dawes, republican vice-presidential candidate, in a recent speech. General Dawes would apply the remedy of common-sense in much the same way it was administered in the European situation. He urged a com mission, non-political, competent and strictly non-partisan in its makeup. He said the situation in agriculture Is now comparable to the dilemma in which European industry found itself and with which the reparations com mission had to grapple, after five years of futile bickering and with Europe on the brink of chaos. John W. Davis, head of the demo cratic ticket, has sniffed at the Dawes agricultural scheme and referred slightingly to "moth balls" in con nection with it. But this was as noth ing compared to what critios said of an expert commission to untangle European affairs. One prominent man said the plan was like prescrib ing a pill to cure an earthquake. But General Dawes was equal to that sneer and said he had always held the opinion that common sense is a universal remedy, whether given in the form of a pill or taken as a steady diet. The commission the President is about to appoint, it was admitted, would meet with many difficult situ ations and in order to get results worth while, it would have to be divorced absolutely from politics, it was said. General Dawes held it an economic problem and not a political question at all. He pointed out the disparity in earn ing capacity of agricultural and in dustrial portions of the population and Uun'.ied specifically upon the situa tion not only of the beef, wheat, fruit and cotton growers but of the whole t ody of farmers throughout the nation. "The idea of an economic, non partisan and impartial commission, which the president has announced he will appoint to suggest a plan for legislative and other relief," he said, "is to have the subject impartially and competently considered from all standpoints. "There is at present no concensus of either economic, agricultural or political opinion behind any specific remedy. It has not been possible to secure, for any proposed plan of re lief, endorsement of all the leading agricultural organizations. "The commission plan is the only one, as I see it, by which this great agricultural problem of the nation can receive a common-sense consider ation, free from political poison. "The experts' plan in Europe was accepted because settled public opin ion demanded itj acceptance and any government which had opposed its acceptance would have been over thrown by public orJnion. "There come crises so great in na tional affairs that by common con sent there is a turning away from political quack doctors. It seems to me that such a crisis is confronted in the agricultural situation." Daniel F. Steele NUMBER 37 GREETINGS Plans Announced for Snake River Dan- Washington, D. C Plans for the construction by the government of an immense reservoir at American Falls, Idaho, to furnish additional water for irrigating 1,5'JO.OOO acres of land in the Snake river valley, were announc ed by Secretary of the Interior Work.

The question was raised by Charles M. Dickson, San Antonio, who brought suit in the 53d district court of Austin for a writ of injunction to enjoin Mrs. Ferguson's name from appearing on the official ballot on the ground that she was ineligible to hold the office of governor on account of her sex. The injunction was denied and the case was appealed to the supreme court, which took it under submission last Saturday.

GERMAN LOAN IN DEMAND Bonds Go at Premium Above Price Intended for Flotation. New York. Five-fold over-subscription of America's $110,000,000 portion of the $200,000,000 German loan a reception unprecedented in the history of foreign financing overshadowed all other developments in last week's bond market. Official estimate of subscriptions placed the total in excess of $500,000, 000, but bankers who participated in the offering estimated that on the basis of their individual orders more than a billion dollars' worth of the bonds could have been sold. Public demand for the new bonds was so great that they commanded a premium of so much as 8 points above the offering price of 92 in stock exchange trading.
