BERRY GROWERS
WIN BIG. SUIT
PHEZ COMPANY CLAIMED A
CONTRACT FOR 120ff TONS OF
LOGANBERRIES WAS BROKEN
BY GROWERS.
Application of the Phez Company
for a temporary injunction restrain
ing the Salem Fruit Union from dis
posing of 1200 tons of loganberries
for which they claimed to have a con
tract, was denied this week by Judge
George G. Bingham of the Marion
county circuit court. Arguments in
the suit, which was filed last Thurs
day were heard Saturday and taken
under advisement until the first of
the week.
The Phez Company alleged that the
union had contracted to deliver to
the Phez Company the loganberries
this year at $61.50 a ton; that this en
tire amount will be needed for the
operation of the Phez Company's
plants in Salem, and that failure to
deliver the berries and, incidentally
failure of the Phez Company to pro
duce the juice would materially nu
lify the benefits they expect to re
ceive from their extensive advertis
ing campaign in which they have ex
pended including this year's appro
priation $373,270 in the past three
years.
It is further alleged that upon the
strength of this contract the Phez
Combany has erected and equipped its
ielly and jam plant at a cost of $5,
000. Failure on the part of the Salem
Fruit Union to deliver the 1200 tons
of loganberries this year, it is elleg
ed would entail a loss to th Phez
Company of $100,000 and render use
less its advertising and that thereby
the Company would suffer a loss in
prestige to the extent of $150,000..
This suit is a sequel to the one filed
by the fruit union against the Phez
Company a. short time ago,-in which
the union seeks to recover $4065 sT
legd to be due from the Phez Com
pany for loganberries delivered dur
ing 1918.

Some men feel that they worked
very hard for the war, as their wives
helped regularly at the Red Cross.
Labor can't come down, because
prices are so high and prices can't
come down because labor costs so
much.
An increase in the number of
tramps is reported. Probably escap
ing from places where they were in-
suited by offers' of work.
The war hasn't crippled any of the
women, but they are doing their best
by wearing high heels to acquire de
formities as a substitute.
Some people say they won't adver
tise, as everyone knows where their
Stores are. Also everybody knows
where the cemetery is, but they don't
feel inclined to go there.
When the people get tired or heavy
taxation, the government can always
borrow money; and when the people
get tired of paying debts, the govern
ment can increase the taxes.
