Production of electric power hy public utility power plants in Oregon Is on a steady upward trend, accord ing to the most recent data prepared and Issued by the United States Geo logical Surrey. Figures covering the comparative operations for the months of June and ; July In this state show that the pro duction for June, 1925, was 10 per cent above that for the game month last year, and that July, 1925, was 11 per cent ahead of July, 1924. Another Interesting fact brought out In the same report 1* that the public utility plants of Oregon pro duce approximately two and one-half times as much energy by the use of wood ns fuel as do all the other states In the Union put together. The figures for May, June and July of this year show that Oregon plants produced a total of 15,647,000 kilo watt hours from this type of fuel, while all the other states In the United States combined produced only 6,562,000 kilowatt hours from wood fuel In the same period. The bulk of this production, with wood as fuel (refuse from sawmills). Is In the Portland district where the largest fuel-burning plants In the state are operated by the Portland Electric Power Company and the Northwestern Electric Company.

One significant and satisfactory con dition which has not yet sufficiently Impressed the American public Is the change In Uncle Sam's shipping status during the past two decades. Twenty years ngo when a citizen of the United States wanted to go abroad he had to travel under foreign flags. Today he Mn go under the American flag In great steamers of which every citizen of the United States should feel proud. The change, which Is little short of marvelous was, of course, brought about by the conditions arising dur ing the world war. A’cars ago Sen ator Mark Hanna sought to build up an American merchant marine through a subsidy, which would have co t the people about seven million dollars a ye nr. The sum looked big then and there was tremendous opp» * It ion, opposition to great that cv th" astute and far-seeing senator fi hi Oli'o was unable to overc me it. The subsidy proposal d>d an America went Its way si. ;>' s. tic pending on foreign digs. Then w w ip plunged Into Hie wo-ld war, sad !y lacking a merchant mirine. I: w : ureearoiy Immediately to build on and the prophecies of Mark H in.: ■ uttered almost a generation before suddenly became true. But this time It was not a task cost ing a paltry seven millions a year. Huge sums had to he expended, and our Inck of national foresight cost us between two and three billions of dol lars. ■at that is now all water over the wheel. We have a tine merchant m ■ l ine, i.o m liter what it cost, and \v ought to keep It. It enhances ou prosperity in days of peace and w., he our safeguard in case of war. F cry good American everywhere will resent any and all effort.;, usually in spired by foreign shipping Interests, which tend to tear down our merchant marine.

C., September---- 1 In a book just published written by Leon Trotsky, the Russian dictator (li’clsres that Great Britain Is on the brink of a revolution. The country, lie sr.ys, hag reached the stage of dis integration, and he blames the result on to America and not Russia, because America has now become the leading J capitalistic nation of the world. Trotsky's wish is probably to the I father to his thought, but It Is admit-1 ted that there is a great deal of so cial unrest among Britain’s workers, I and this was Increased rather than .dispelled by the results of the recent | labor conference at Scarborough. Trotsky's blaming this on to Am-1 erica is of course fanciful, as the Russian Reds have been doubly busy | in England since that country recog nized tl e soviet government of Russia I ■ Ml tha danger in Great Britain is ecnernlly recognized as having come | from communistic sources. Trotsky admits that the United I State: i* not leaning so much to com munis nt as the European nations, but | he has hopes. "In revolutionary development I America does not stand in the front rank, say3 Trotsky; the American | bourgeolse will still enjoy the privil ege of witnessing the destruction of I its older European sister. But the in evitable hour will strike for Ameri can capital also; the American oil and steel magnates, trust and export leaders, the multi-millionaires of New York, Chicago and San Francisco are performing—though unconsciously— their pre-destined revolutionary func tion. And the American proletariat | will ultimately discharge theirs.” Trotsky’s book, It is pointed out I here, will not create any favorable sentiment for the recognition of Red I Russia by the United States gov«m - ment. is A P E A C O C K ashamed of HIS L E G S ?
