OLD FARM LOANS BEING PAID;
FEW NEW ONES BEING MADE
Washington, Dec. 12. During the
first two weeks in November, the
War Finance Corporation made ten
new loans airgregating only $141,000
for agricultural and livestock pur
poses. During the same period they
received in payment of loans pre
viously made for agricultural and
livestock purposes $8,0("0.O0O. Since
the first of the year the War Finance
Corporation has been repaid over
$159,000,000 on loans previously ad
vanced. According to advices from
the Northwest the farmers of Minne
sota, North Dakota and South Da
kota have repaid a toul of $10,000,
000 out of $46,000,000 loaned by the
War Finance Corporation in those
three states. Inasmuch as the first
loans were made in October, 1921,
this clearly shows the agricultural
interests are getting in better shape.
In addition to the loans which have
been completely liquidated, many
others have been partially paid.

Dated at Keppner, Dec. 11, 1922.
W. W. SMEAD. Postmaster.
In virw of the fact that money put
irto Chrl-tma Seals is spent largely
in a hea'.th educational jwirram with
-fecial reference to raising the health
standard of the children of the state,
endorsements of the work of the Ore
con Tuhrrcu'osis Association from
the various educational leaders of the
state, have strong and special signi
ficarc. Money spent in interesting chil
dren in the formation of health habits
in playing the game of health and in
the valuation of health and life it
self, is an investment with a high
rate of interest. Never has Oregon
been challenged to do more along
lines of disease prevention and public
health than at the present time and
with the sympathy and financial sup
port of the citiiens of the state, this
challenge will be met
Following are some of the endorse
ments from leading educators:
W. J. Kerr, president of Oregon
Agricultural College: "The work of
the Oregon Tuberculosis Association
is of very great importance. Much
good has already been accomplished.
It undoubtedly merits, and I trust
will receive the financial support re
quired in continuing the work in a
most effective and successful way."
P. L. Campbell, president of Univer
sity of Oregon: "The activities of the
Oregon Tuberculosis Association have
my heartiest support and I have full
confidence in the organization which
is in charge of them. In my judg
ment no more important piece of
work is being done for the health of
Oregon than that which lies within
the activities of the Association. I
know that already a material reduc
tion has been made in the death rate
from tuberculosis in Oregon through
the work which the Association has
been doing for tha past few years.
I appeal to every citizen of Oregon
to give the heartiest support both by
encouragement and by purchase of the
Seals which are sold as the principal
means of keeping up the Association's
budget
J. S. Landers, president Oregon
Normal school: "There is no simpler
or easier way that any citizen of Ore
gon can aid a suffering fellowman
than by liberal purchase of Christ'
mas Seals during the coming holiday
season. The Oregon Tuberculosis
Association in the effective work it is
doing, deserves the support of every
generous hearted person in the state."
J. A. Churchill, state superinten
dent of public instruction: "It af
fords me much pleasure to again en
dorse the Christmas Seal Sale of
the Oregon Tuberculosis Association
for December, 1922. I trsst that our
teachers will make a splendid contri
bution in the way of assisting in the
sale of the seals for it is the best
way to support health educational
work in Oregon."
The sale of Seals has started off
with a bang throughout the state.
Never before have such large re-orders
been received so early in the
campaign. Coos County has ordered
an additional $100 worth of Seals;
other re-orders include: Salem, $800;
Klamath County, $500; Yamhill
County, $200; Umatilla, $200; Wash
ington, $300; Columbia, $50. Let
ters of encouragement and of plans
for record sales are reaching the
headquarters in Portland from all
sections of the state. The Portland
mail sale is the largest in the history
of the Association.

Notes j
iL . !:
I
Conductor Bender of the local
branch train, returned home on
Sunday evening from Portland. He
had been in the city for a few days
looking after his residence property.
Very intemperate and exaprerated
is the characterisation made by dea
ry R. Wilbur of Hood River, depart
ment Commander of the American
Legion in Oregon, of the report cabl
ed from Paris quoting Dr. Edmund
L. Gross, delegate to the national
convention of the Legion at New Or
leans from continental Europe, as
saying that the conference waa ruled
by a mob and that drunkenness was
prevalent
"There was plenty of boisterous
ness and hilarity but not any more
than one observes at any convention
the size of that one in New Orleans,"
continued Commander Wilbur. "There
was no destruction of property. The
action of the convention and the reso
lutions adopted marked it as tem
perate and progressive. It occurs to
me that the delegate from Paris fail
ed to distinguish between the con
vention delegates and the very large
number of irresponsible young men
who swarmed in from neighboring
towns of Louisiana, Texas and Miss
issippi to take advantage of the oc
casion for a good time. Many of
these were not ex-service men and
many who were did not wear Legion
buttons.
Dr. Gross was disappointed because
tt e convention refused to grant a
subsidy to Paris post in the way of
financial aid. I wonder if he did not
go home with a grouch.
Support of the 112 American Le
gion posta in Oregon was pledged to
the annual Roll Call of The Ameri
can Red Cross, by the state executive
committee in recent session at Port
land. "The Red Cross has aided and
assisted the American Legion in many
ways and deserves the support of
every post, concluded the resolution
passed."
Harry N. Nelson, Department Ad
jutant of the American Legion in
Oregon, left Portland last week to
attend a meeting of state adjutants
in Indianapolis, Ind., seat of national
headquarters of the Legion. An am
bitious program for 1923 will be out
lined as well as vital problems af
fecting the legion internally. There
is held to be a great need for all vet
erans of the World War to get into
the American Legion and assist the
organization in the realization of its
momentous problems.
In a report just issued by the Ser
vice Department of The American
Legion, in Oregon it was disclosed
that an unusually heavy amount of
work has been done for members of
the legion and non-members, the de
partment serving all veterans alike
whether affiliated with any veteran
organization or not.
The report showed that since Feb
ruary, 1920 when the Service Depart
ment was organized that $1,500,000 of
insurance was reinstated for the
government; that 2619 compensation
cases were adjuciated; 1552 travel
pay claims; 600 allotments; 236 cloth
ing applications; effects of diseased
comrades, 24; naval retainer pay,
100; foreign service pay, 204; liberty
bonds paid for but not received, 865;
certificates in lieu of lost discharges,
.jjd; lost bj.ir&ce reclaimed, 56;
changes in service record, 10; adjust
vocational training awards, 111; ad
justment insurance status, 200; 696
miscellaneous items.
The Service Department has been
operated free of charge to veteranB
of the World War in assisting them
to get what is due from the govern
ment incidental to their service and
helping them overcome "red tape"
and other obstacles besetting their
path in obtaining claims.
t:..uii;h it does not equal the amount
expended annually by other states,
it marks a long step in the right
direction. Heretofore the state has
expended nothing.
Another fund for the advertising
o: the Northwest states will be made
aiu'able during 1923 for a threa-year
period. This refers to a million-dollar
appropriation made by the Bur-
ington. Great Northern and North
ern Pacific railroads, to -be devoted
to exploiting tha scenic and indus
trial resources of the Northwest
through adx-ertising in magazines of
r.Htional circulation. Assuming that
Oregon will benefit from this expen
diture oa an equal basis with other
Norhtwest states, an additional $200,
000 will be added to Oregon's adver
tising budget
Another important development
along this line is the growing num
ber of Oregon industries that are ad
vertising nationally. Each of these
individual advertising campaigns car
ry the message of Oregon throughout
the nation. The building up of strong
co-operative marketing organizations
capable of advertising nationally will
add to the total.
Oregon is learning the necessity of
advertising. Although immediate re
sults can not be expected, the records
of other states show that ultimate
returns may be pracically unlimited.

such a degree that his wife fancied he willfully neglected her
for them. Then came the breakdown from overwork and the
long voyage in the South Seas, on a vessel manned by rough
