Committees of citizens are today
in the Rogue River and Gold Hill
districts lining up acreage for plant
ing to sugar beets. Committees have
already been at Wolf Creek, Leland,
Glendale and the Grave Creek dis
tricts, and the sentiment Is found to
be extremely favorable In each, with
the prospect of getting the largest
possible land planted this coming sea
son. The Wildervllle country Is es
pecially Interested in the project and
will supply a heavy tonnage to be
loaded on the cars of the new Twohy
road. The subject will bo a live one
at the Pomona grange meeting to be
held at Frultdale Saturday, when
farmers from all parts of the valley
will be present.
'I came from a sugar beet coun
try and I know that the growing of
beets spells prosperity for the entire
community, and I am going to stsy
right here In Grants Pass and either
buy or rent land and grow beets It
that factory Is built."
That was the remark of L. S. Lam
bert, who, with his family, arrived
n the city last week, and who this
morning was seen In a local bank
opening up a checking account and
arranging to stay hero during the
winter and "plug for that factory,")
as he eloquently put It. Mr. Lam-
bert used to rtow sugar 'beets down j
In Colorado, and be thinks thut the
Rogue valley should be an Ideal place
for their production. In Colorado.
he said, the Industry Increased till
from the hill tops the smoke from
eight factories could bo seen, and the
farmers were satisfied to Increase
acreage rather than to plant only
what had been originally contracted
for.
"The population of the valley will
double, and with a continuous stream
of money being paid out for labor in

PORTLAND OIIATOU HUH his address, Chairman Kdward Cook
A DISCORDANT Norn' Inabam good-naturedly remarked
'that it would never have been de-
Portland, Oct. 27. The manner In
which William D. Wheelwright,
prominent business man and orator
par excellence, "spilled the beans"
Hvtred had an advance copy of It
been submitted to him.
However, tho advocates of pre
paredness had their say. Dr. James,
for tbe farmer when his crop
grown, there will be a wonderful Im
provement In business conditions. A
sugar beet community Is a prosper
ous community."
Mr. Lambert is backing his words
up with work, and has already rented
a bouse In town and will not return
to his farm In Jefferson county If the
factory Is assured. He returned Tues
day night from a trip through the
Evans creek country, where he was
looking for land for sale or lease
that was suitable for beet culture.
Me said that he saw some beautiful
country In the Evans valley, Ideal for
beet culture.
"The farmers up there all realize
the value of the beet Industry," said
Mr. Lambert, "but some of thorn are
afraid of the transportation question.
I told thorn to go ahead and raise
boots and that the transportation
problem would solve Isolf. If they
get Into the business right somoono
will build a railroad up the valley,
as they will be built up evory valley
where beets arc grown. Grow beets
and the other good things will come."
at tho Security Leaguo banquet Inst B. Bullitt, field secretary of the Navy
night by advocating International league, declared that everything
disarmament when the function was; within renson should bo done to In
sure and organize national safety.
After characterizing the song
lion's lamentable unpreparedness for
war, was the talk of the town today.
Wheelwright eloquently opposed
the preparedness program of the ad
ministration been n bo "It Is unwlso
and Immoral to get tho people to
prepare for war as the only way of
preventing It when the theory has
been so absolutely disproved by
events In Europe."
When Wheelwright had concluded
I
Did Not Raiso My Boy to be a Sol
dier" as despicable, Governor WHhy
combo snld that preparedness was
tho nation's guarnntee for a continu
ance of peace.
One hundred prominent business
and professional men attended the
banquet.
