Page Two [ A S tate P araiyzei In an address before the Ore gon State Bankers’ Association, C. S. Hudson, president, brought out new points in regard to the interest bill to be voted on Nov. 2nd, which have a direct bearing on every citizen and ever/ sec tion of the state. He said, “ If the amendment should pass the State of Oregon could not sell 5% road bunds and road work would stop.” “ Farm values would be de stroyed as few sales are made with entry cash consideration and mortgages could not be made at C 11/ OTu. > f “ Live stock and wool business would suffer in same way, noon« would loan to growers at 5%'.“ “ City and county finances for bond issues would be paralyzed % no 5% money.” “ Timber purchases would meet same fate as none are financed on a 5% basis.” “ Interest on savings bank ac counts would be knocked out en tirely.” “ Loans by building and loan associations would have to stop. ” “ Sales <rn installment plan would be discontinued as accounts would not be carried at 5 V ” % “ Local banks would be vir tually put out of business.” And so it would be right down the line with every business and every individual. Concluding, Mr. Hudson said, “The passage of this measure would serve notice on the world that we not only did not want outside capital, but that we de sired the withdrawal of invest ments from our State and that financial pestilence prevailed in Oregon. ” A ro u n d the S tate Forty thousand acres of pine timber, estimated t o contain 1,000,000,000 feet, near Klamath Falls, are reported to have been sold by the Hopkin’s estate to the Weyerhauser Company.
