AT LAST A TARIFF
After long months of so-called de
liberation,, the tariff, bill has finally
been passed by the Senate and
House and signed by the President.
It is generally agreed that the bill
is far from a masterpiece, but is
the best that could be hoped for in
view of the present tangled political
situation.
"Meritorious demands for further
protection to agriculture and labor
which have developed since the tar
iff of 1922 would not end if this
bill fails of enactment," said Presi
dent Hoover, in signifying he would
ign it. . "Agitation for legislative
tariff revision would necessarily con
tinue before the ' country. Nothing
would contribute to retard business
recovery more than this contiuued
agitation."
The bill will act as a stabilising in
fluence. It at least does away with
uncertainty. Whether or not the
new tariff will protect American
industries without adding appreci
ably to the cost of living .remains
to be een. ' ,
THE PRESS IS THE REMEDY.
' ' - "
Optimism among the 'smaller
newspapers is a 'good business
remedy for depression,-in our. coun;
try. . ' - '
Unemployment is not confined to
this nation of 'to any . one nation,
but is more or 'less world-wide.
A late statement ' from' the New
Orleans Chamber of Commerce de
clares that industrial and business
condition have "reached almost
complete normalcy.
The number of jobs is said to be
increasing in most of the regions
called civilized and wages are still
above the ten-year average."
The American press can. do much
to ' maintain progress and prosperity
Pefsimism in a time of depression
is an admission of defeat. Ameri
ca has the resources, both tangible
and intangible, with which to meet
and solve all problems.
Found Lost Sheep
, While collecting their bands and
making them ready for the moun
tains on Monday the Farghers miss
ed a band of over 600 woollies. The
others were headed to the grazing
grounds and then a search was in
stituted for the lost sheep. They
were found on the'ir own range,
rounded up and will be taken to
Swim in trucks.
Home From Coatt
The two Crabtree boys, Jesse and
Andrew, with the former's wife, re
turned last evening from a trip to
the coast. While away the party
visited at their old home, Astoria,
and at several other places, spend
'ippr the greater part of their time at
Newport on the coast. The trip
seems to have benefited each of
them.
Cot Hand Jammed
. Yesterday Clifford Allen got his
left hand caught in the mechanism
of his combine, sustaining a badly
cut little finger and swollen mem
ber. That was the second time Clif
ford was injured by the same ma
chine part.
'. Ut Maupin Flour
People of the ' Hay Creek section
seem to be partial to flour made by
the Woodcock brothers at Maupin.
, Each month several tons of the
Maupin staff of life is taken to
Hay Creek. This morning James
Woodcock loaded the company truck
with two tons of "Perfection" flour
and took it to the alfalfa section.

It hns always hr.cn a miention who
was the real head of the- family.
That matter Will be uettlcd for good
and all next Sunday night when
Manager Miles Michael will i-how
a story under the caption ''Tho
Head of the Family" ut Legion hull.
The showing is a frothy nivlunge
of laughs, love interest and wit. Tho
leading? chnrnrtcrs nto Virginia Lcc
Corbin, William Russell, Mickey
Dennett,' Richard Wallinjr, Alma
liennett, William J. Wnlsh and Aggie
Herring. The story has to do with
an ex-plumber making a lead pipe
singe and making tho rest of the
i'aniily dance to his tunes. The do
mestic difficulties of the family are
aired in a manner laughable- in the
extreme. The plumber hires one of
his laborers to put his family foun
dry in bhapo with the result tho
aired man makes love to end mar
r,ta the daughter of tho house. The
vife and metier takes issue wilh
her husband, who finally wins bis
way and makes the rest of those
concerned do as he wishes. His
way of accomplishing this b mirth-
, provoking and shows how some hus
bands meet the demands of exacting
wives and children.
Manager Michcal intends t0 have
shows each Sunday night hereafter
and for them has booked a line of
most - attractive stories.

place' where. they first met and where
they decided to join ipsucs for life.
"Bill" has been a hard worker and
has decided that "worn and no play
makes Bill a dull boy," therefore

by a visit with old friends down the
valley.
In From Hills

Government Camp Tuesday evening
and will spend a few days in town.
Monday he will go to work with tht
government road builders, who arc

straightening bad curves ana nxmg
up the roadway generally.
Mr. Shattuck Home
Mrs. Bates Shattuck has returned
from The Dalits, where she under
went an operation for appendicitis,
having about fully recovered. On
Tuesday she and Bates spent the
day in the mountains, going there
to enjoy an outing and as a sort of
tonic to the recuperating hidy.
Had Septic Poisoning
Mrs. R. C. Davidson was taken to
The Dalles last Thursday suffering
from an attack of sceptic poisoning.
The lady had had some teeth ex
tracted with the result that suppera
tion ensued, her system becoming
filled with the poison tharefrom. She
returned to her Maupin home Mon
day being much improved.
Gettln; Ready for Wheat
Both Maupin warehouses are get
ting ready for the wheat crop of
this season. George Morris at the
Maupin warehouse and Ernest Doty
nf wheat that will soon be coming to
at the Hunts Ferry elevator have
straightened up their storage rooms
and are now in a position to take

With U. S. Engineer
Tom Baird, the man who super
intended the building of Maupin's
new reservoir, is now employed with
the U. S. Geological Engineers who
are building a guaging station, at
the mouth of the Deschutes river.
Tom writes The Times to the effect
that he hopes the new reservoir is
proving to be the real thing, also
that he hopes to be able to make
Maupin a visit in the near future.
TRUCK
pick Ups flff
There Is one man in Maupin who
clulms he catches the limit of trout
each time he gon fishln.' He says
his catch always is big ones. Tues
day he received a statement from
tho Pnrtlanl Fish company for fifth
purchased. This has aroused a
question regarding his catches. No
doubt he pulls in some large fish,
but in the light of the statement
some of his friends are In doubt
whether or not to credit him with
making hauls claimed by him.
Bob Wilson is stewing and sweat
ing these days, and not account of
the hot weather, either. Hi posi
tion at Shattuck' keeps him keyed
up nt all times. Aside from serv
ing customers he attends to the
buying, checking tin goods, Inytyig
them away on th0 shelves, marking
them and keeping an eye on the
business generally. At that Bob is
not losing flesh.
Some of our people have been
worrying about the whereabouts of
Miles Michael, the picture show
man. His house has been dark for
several Sundays and the report was
circulated that he had left the
country. Not so, Pauline. Mr.
Michael will be in Maupin the com
ing Sunday night with a new comedy
showing, and after that w !1 make
regular showings in our fair; city.

iles cf Conveyors in Ford Plant '
Thi picture how two type of conveyor tn use In th Rouge Plant of th
. Ford Motor. Company. ,
AN ENDLESS chain conveyor,
three and a half to four miles
k long, said to be the longest In
the world, has Just been completed at
the Rouge Plant of the Ford Motor
Company at Dearborn, Michigan. On
It parts of Ford cars in the proceis
of manufacture are transported from
one building to another and completed
parts are carried direct to railroad
cars for shipment to branch assembly
plants.
The conveyor, which carries Its
cargo on suspended hooks, has a dally
capacity for 300,000 parts weighing
over 2,000,000 pounds. It supplants
freight car and truck which have
been used for the transfer of many
parts from one point to another in the
Ford plant.
This longest conveyor of them all 1
a development of the Ford policy that
nothing should be done by manual
labor that could better be done by
machine.
In the early days of his manufactur
ing carr, Mr. Ford devised the as
each week, working at Maupin on
Sunday owning.
x
Motorics should be moro careful
thun ever at this time of the year.
Many such smoko and it Is a usual
custom to throw a match away after
lighting up. Oftlmes tho match is
burning when it strikes the ground,
and when It alights In dry grass fires
are 0ftcn started. The firs on the
Maupin grade Inst Monday no doubt
was slatted in that manner. It
might have resulted in serious loss,
if help had not responded to the
rail and put the fire out.
Bill Williams say he has been
married 63 years; his wife says it
was C2 years ago that ho took Bill
for better or worse. We are won
dering how Bill got tn that extra
year. Maybe ho counted the year
bp spent courting his wife Bs one
of the stretches of time he counts
was 62 years ago that she took Bill
and his estimable wife are as happy
and contented as they were when
they set out to conquer tho world to
gether. Maupin people appreciate the fact
wo have a mtlk producer that keeps
up to modern times The Wray dairy
is equipped with all modern con
veniences, with the exception of
milking machines and they will be
installed in the near future. A
cooling device. and sterilising ppart
us is in constant me and the pro
duct ia delivered in as pure a con
dition as possible each day.
Now's the time to pay for The Times
sembly line a moving track on which
cars in the process of assembly vent
to the workmen Instead of the work
men carrying part to the car. The
assembly line, perfected In many ways,
Is now used by automohile manufac
turers generally.
The value of the conveyor In reduc
lng physical labor, in savlug time, In
preserving system and la cutting uusis
soon became, apparent and Its u3e v.o
extended to other purposes about the
plant. Now there are literally miles of
conveyors of various types In the Ford
plant Some of them csrry parts from
one building to another and are care
fully synchronized so that the parts
arrive at precisely the right moment
and In the exact spot where they are
needed. Others transport red hot In
got of steel weighing nearly a ton
each. Still others move outgoing ship
ments. If It were not for the conveyors, ac
cording to officials of the Ford Com
pany, mass production would not be
possible on It present icale.
