They should be more eo because these two great producios agencie»—-darm and facory— produce virtually all the real wealth of the country. . .more than thirty million peopl« ara dlractly dependent upon return» from the farm— a vaat see* tor of the manufacturers' market . . although detractors of the Ame rican System have defamed bus! ness for being otherwise, the Indus trialist has been, and will continue to be, substantially concerned over the general welfare of this nation.' So states Lewis H. Brown, chair man o f the National Association of Manufacturers' Committee on Agrl cultural Cooperation. The Commit tee is at work. Tt does not have a farm plan; It does not seek to tell the farmers how to run his business. It does seek to learn all it can about the farm problem and transmit that Information to manufacturers as means or developing a more sympa thetic understanding. As its first steps, the committee has agreed to study I f phases of the problem. Including per capita con aumption, imports, export», farm buying power vs. urban buying pow er, farm mortgage and interest pro blems, new industrial uses for agri cultural products, snd farm tases In relation to cash income and coats of farmers. That is a pretty big slate. It includes things which many have studied. But It shows clearly that the manufacturer la interested in and desirous of, understanding the farmers' problems. If tbe farmer, in turn, can interest himself in Industry's problem a great new« day will dawn Washington Snap Shots Spring has definitely arrived In Washington. The sign; A lot of Congresmen who dislike the sulphur and molasses treatment are having to swallow another bitter pill just the same. Publicly, they say they like the medicine. But privately, they storm and fuss because politics is forcing them to take their medicine and vote to appropriate another $1.500,000.- 000 for "work-relief" and boondog gling. Until three years ago, when the depression was at its worst, Congress had zealously guarded its right to stimulate where virtually every dol lar of federal money was spent. But under pressure, it finally got into the habit of appropriating lump sums without any strings and letting some body else say where it should be spent. The legislators saw the error of their ways, they say, when they dis covered that money was being used for things Congress had refused to I'OIJTICH A M » JU STICE approve, such as the Florida ship Critics of the Supreme Court, canal and Passamaquoddy tldes- most of whom would usurp for harneasing and hundreds of other themselves the powers giveu to tbe projects Court by the Constitiou, are Indulg They want now to tighten up; to ing In a breathing speel.

What most Congressmen, includ ing Democratic leaders, really want to do is this; Disband the present relief set-up, stop all boondoggling projects, turn direct relief over to the Red Cross, leave "w ork” relief to private initiative, and reduce the appropriation to about $500.000,000. But they can't do that. This hap pens to be an election year, and they can’t admit hey have been wrong in a policy which already has coat $8,- 100,000,000 and which will event ually cost nearly $10,000,000,000.

The warm weather and melting snow has maintained a general high level of water in all streams during the past week. Some fish have been caught, but in general fishing has been only fair. In the middle fork of the Applegate below Elliott Creek and the Little Applegate, the water is muddy. However, tributaries, par ticularly Carberry Creek, are clear and should be fair. In Evans, Trail, and Elk Creek steelhead are report ed to be running. Those streams are fairly clear. The main Rogue River is high and cloudy. Two sal mon were caught below the Savage Rapids dam Wednesday. The run is expected to increase considerably by Sunday. Conditions remains abont the same in the upper branches of the Rogue River with the water high but fairly clear. In Big Butte the water is still cloudy but clearing The smaller branches of Big Butte are clear. Little Butte Creek has continued high during the week, but has dropped some during the past few days. Lake conditions remain about the same. Squaw Lakes are open, but the other lakes are frozen over ex cept Fish Lake in which a small area of open water was reported near the outlet. The snow has been melting very rapidly at Fish Lake and according to last reports there was only an average of two feet of snow remaining. No catches have been reported as taken on flies. Night crawlers and eggs will prob ably be essential during the week end. Road conditions have improved somewhat, but no new territory has been open up by the melting snows. In the Applegate territory all roads, with the exception of those at the higher elevations which are closed by snow, are in good condition. Last week the Evans Creek road was re ported open to the mouth of Salt Creek. It has been learned since that the State has closed this road at the COC Camp at the mouth of the west fork of Evans Creek, and no travel by cars is possible above that point. The Butte Falls-Lake of the Woods road is closed by snow 7 miles this side of Fish Lake. The several parties who have hiked into Water E. R.
