CROSS FIRE HITS GRAIN INSPECTOR (Continued from First Paire) csn he shipped without a smutting process, they should not b docked for this work when it is no dona. An investigation of th actual smutting operations of the exporters attempted int summer by departments of Ore eon and Washington was stopped, it is reported, when it was found that every time a man was sent by In spector Church to check on the smut ting houses. Church rang a bell warn ing th ecperators who immediately doubled their crew and handled less wheat, to run up the estimate of operating cons. Local farmers con tend that the smutitng charge is too high on some grades of wheat. The investigation is now in the hands of the federal grain department. The hearing conducted by a repre sentative of the United States attor ney general, in Portland early this month has been held from the public but sufficient information has been secured, so that farmers of this sec tion, through the farm bureau, plan the removal of Church as inspector no matter what the government de cision is. Church testified at the hearing, it is reported, that while he was grading the grain which was given a clean bill on the Great City in opposition to federal grades, that he was acting in the capacity of a sort of helper for the Gray Rosenbaum company and tM in the capacity of inspector, de spite the fact that he is paid a big full time salary by the state. It was intimated at the hearing on more than one occasion that materia! coming into the inspection depart ment was graded more rigidly than was the sjime material being graded out for export for the exporting firms. From this exposure of questionable methods employed by some exporting firms to influence the judgment of grain inspectors, is likely to come more definite rulings from the public service commission of Oregon, the de partment of agriculture of the state of Washington, and from the federal grain inspection division on future procedure, and the discharge of Church as well as of any deputy in spector who is connected with any ex port firm, farmer or group of farm ers in a way detrimental to the im partiality of the state inspection department. ECONOMIC FORCES SWAY ELECTIONS (Continued from Page 1) progress of a negative kind can be said to have resulted from the latest conference. Hope has been expressed that France and Germany too are gradually developing such attitude toward the problem that an ventual "meeting of minds" is not to be dis paired of. The Unitd States will figure in the next parley, as the Al lied debt question is inextricably in volved with that of the reparations. Germany's floating debt at the end of October was 720 billion marks as against 628 billions a month earlier, and the preliminary budget for 1923 estimates a deficit of 1085 millions.

It congeals in the oil reservoir and is not responsive to the action of the pump. Therefore while your engine is warm ing up, it is running practically with jut any lubrication. The result : worn oearings, scored cylinder walls, and Irain on batteries. Zerolene for Winter Lubrication ' Zerolene No. 1, No. 3 and No. 5 flow freely at zero, so that the engine bearings get oil even when the motor is cold. The correct body of Zerolene will make starting much easier on your battery, eliminate the danger of burnt out bearings and noticeably increase the power and responsive nessof your engine. Consult the rec ommendations for winter lubrication as shown in the Zerolene Correct Lubrication Chart.

Two hundred and fifty tons of money, about $50,000,000, were moved through the congested streets of Chi cago's down town district a few days si:o. when the Chicago Federal Re serve Bank moved all its valuables from its old home to the new 1700, 000 building at LaSalle and Adams streets, where it is now installed. j The new treasury house, protected by 3..xH),000 tons of steel and enormous masses of reinforced concrete, has storatre room available in its vaults for all the gold of the Federal Re serve system, more than $3,000,000, 000, should an emergency ever arise to make its transfer advisable. California Claims Highest Motor Registratioa. California now is claiming the lead in motor ear registration for the tint ed States. The Los An (teles Chamber of Commerce has issued a statement saying that the present total for the state is 837.000. almost one-third of which is in Los Angeles County. On January 1, the registration of cars in New York State was reported as 812. 031. The increase of ears registered this year in California ia set at SO per cent over last year. Californians declare that this percentage is a greater ration than ever before achieved by any state in the Union. The extraordinary increase may be attributed to a combination of good roads and a climate which permits touring the year sround. Kansas Hearing Reopens Question. The whole question of agricultural freight rates will be reopened before the Interstate Commerce Commission I'ecemher 11, when hearings will be started on the application of the Kansas Railroad Commission for a second reduction in the rates on grains, grain products and hay. Min nesota, North and boutn uaxoia, Ne braska, Iowa and half a dozen other states joined with Kansas after the application was made. No specific reduction is sought by the applicants. A year ago they asked for a decrease equal to the increase of August, 1920. The commission granted approxi mately half that amount Clyde Reed, of Kansas, head of the joint commit tee appointed to present arguments for reductions, indicated that the states now hope to get the other half. It is the purpose of the applicants to show that present rates make prof itable farming impossible. Agitation of the agricultural rate question ia certain to bring forward the question of wages. The commission has no authority over wages, but the ques tion of wages must nevertheless be taken into consideration in rate mak ing for far more than half the cost of operation of the railroads is that of wages. President Harding is said to favor bringing the Railway Labor Board to Washington, or uniting the board and commission in one body so that the question of rates and wages can be dealt with simultaneously. LANDING! ) 1620 THRIFT FOUNDED THE NATION Three hundred and two years ago a band of Pilgrims cast anchor on a wild New England shore. Scarcely had these brave pioneers settled in their new colony when the terrible winter was upon them. Only half of the party survived the hardships and suffering of that winter. Nothing daunted, those who were spared stayed on, and planted their crops. By exercising the strictest economy they were able to live and prosper. These Pil grims learned the value of thrift. Their method left us a lesson that we would do well to follow. You and your family will prosper and be thankful for opening an account in this reliable institution. Practice thrift with your spare dollars that is the surest road to wealth.
