IN THE PLEA to farmers to look out for their own interests con tained in the statement of Geo. N. Peck, local chairman of the grain rate fight fund, issued this week, Mr. Peck draws a contrast showing what can be done, when those affec ted wish to gain the benefits of leg islation. Speedy reduction of in come tax rates is practically assur ed, while five years have elapsed since the Hoch-Smith resolution was passed as an emergency measure for farming with no real relief yet received from it That farming interests should be stir themselves is true. There should be no let-up for lower freight rates as long as there is unjust discrim ination. But to accomplish this purpose there must be united action. Any reduction in freight rates means that much added to the price of the farmer's grain. Even on the Portland differential, cited by Mr. Peck, if the farmer were to get the benefits allowed, a substantial sum would be added to his yearly pay check. And should the expected 2.8 cents reduction be allowed by the Interstate Commerce commission, a saving to Morrow county farmers on their average yearly wheat out put of 1,500,000 bushels would amount to some $30,000. If $30,000 can be made by spend ing $300, Morrow county's quota to carry on the rate fight, it would appear to be good business to spend the $300 or several times that am ount if necessary. offered for call money. One great paper and power company had more than $25,000,000 in cash working in the call money market for two years up to the recent collapse of the speculative boom. The end of speculation sends call money back to its sources. Literally billions of dollars of capital have thus been released for productive use since October. The same cap ital that was earning an average of about 8 per cent while stocks were booming is now looking for Invest ment at 5 per cent or even lower. This Is not New York's money; it is the money of the entire niition. Every part of the United States has now more free capital available for building, for industrial expansion, for local loans on sound local busi ness enterprises, than it has had for two or three years. THE OUTLOOK FOB PROSPERITY. PRESIDENT HOOVER'S confer ences of big business heads have had a reassuring effect already. The railroads and the great industries have given their pledges not to re duce their production and develop ment programs but to increase them, to employ more men instead of laying off workers, in many in stances to increase wages. The governors of the states have been almost unanimous in their assur ances of increased activity in public works. The President himself has pledged the Federal Government, so far as Congress will authorize it, to building and development pro gram beyond what had been con templated. It seems to be true, then, that un like all previous slumps in the stock market, the one which occurred in October wsa not caused by anything in the general business situation. And it seems as certain as anything in the future can be, that if all the pledges given to the President are kept, or most of them, 1930 will turn out to be the most prosperous year in our national history. Uncle Si Tinklepaugh says the grindstone business ought to be looking up, now that so many folks that lost money in Wall Street are putting their noses to 'em again. The Post Office Department says the gum on the new stamps will taste better than the old ones. It won't be any more nourishing, however. NOTICE NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that there will be a meeting of the Levying Board of Morrow County, Oregon, at the Court House in Heppner, Oregon, on the 5th day of December, 1929, when and where the estimates arrived at by the Budget Committe of Morrow County, Oregon, hereinafter set forth, may be dis cussed with the Levying Board, and when and where any person who shall be subject to such tax levy, shall be heard in favor of or against said tax levy or any part thereof. "CALL MONEY." 1ITHEN the word goes out from Wall Street that "call money" is quoted at 10 per cent, many people wonder what has happened to the usury laws. Six per cent is the highest interest that can legally be charged in most states, 8 per cent in a few, still higher in one or two But 6 per cent is New York s legal rate except in the case of "call money." Loans in units of $5,000 or more, payable on demand, and secured by the deposit of securities listed on the Stock Exchange may be made in New York legally at any rate of interest the borrower is willing to pay. In practice, call loans of this kind are made only to brokers and only in units of $100,000. They are necessary because Stock Exchange transactions are all on a spot cash basis and the broker who buys shares for a customer who has not put up the full purchase price in cash, must borrow the rest of the money in order to pay for the shares. Of course, the customer who buys "on margin" pays the interest Every great speculative move ment of stocks sends up the price of call money. In the Northern Pacific corner of 1901 the price of call money went up to 100 per cent! The law of supply and demand op erates in the call money market as in all other markets. When the rate is high money flows into the mar ket from every source of capital in the world. Every bank in the Uni ted States sends all it can spare of its reserves to Wall Street Private capitalists send in their hundreds of thousands, great corporations sus pend programs to get the high rates TTX7 fU wm tor the 1 1 Mite bv Nancu hart When Cleaning Clothing A bath towel folded and placed underneath fabric from which spots are to be removed often prevents the formation of a ring when clean ing fluid is applied. Dip a cloth in the fluid, apply briskly to the spot, and rub until dry. Hint for Sewing When turning hems or basting seams, try paper clips to hold them. They will not fall out as readily as pins. When Frying Potatoes Remember If a little flour is sifted over pota toes before dropping them into pan this will keep the fat from sputter ing. Removes Ink from Linen Mellow tallow poured over an ink stain on linen will remove the spot When washed in warm water and soap both ink and the grease spot will disappear. Skimming Jelly One housewife finds a clean new vegetable brush the best agent for gathering the scum from jelly as it boils. The refuse clings easily to the brush and no jelly is lost. Of course the brush should be washed frequently during the process. Jutimg irijrtfll Season International Sunday School Lesion for December 8 HELPING NEIGHBORS Iff HEED Matthew 26:31-46 Rev. Samuel D. Price, D.D. The late Theodore Roosevelt fre quently quoted from James as a most practical writer In the New Testament. This author says "Pure religion and undefiled before God and Father is this, to visit the fa therless and widows in their af fliction, and to keep himself un spotted from the world." The first portion surely deals with the title for today: "Helping Neighbors in Need." Other selected references are Luke 10:25-37; James 1:27, just quoted, and James 2:14-17, While many will admit that they have obligations of this kind not a few will Reek to evade the issue by asking the question "And who is my neighbor?" which brought forth the wonderfully direct parable of the Good Samaritan, which is the passage from Luke. It is frequently the case that those who profess the most in formalists religion are like the priest and levite, who were care ful to continue on their Journey. Then there are those who are all but held In contempt who reveal the milk of human kindness, as did the Samaritan. All the while the com mand is resting on us which is found lu the Golden Text "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself," Leviticus 19:18. We evidence our religion by the way we put It into practice. Deeds are a fine index of our real purpose. The selection from Matthew takes us back to the last day of public teaching when addressed the people both within the city of Jerusalem, and later in the day on the Mount of Olives. Toward the close he turn ed their attention to the sublime fact that there will be an audit made of every life. No triumph of tiny earthly monarch can compare in grandeur with the setting of that Judgment Day. He had been the Good Shepherd and the imagery is of a shepherd separating the sheep from the goats. People are still ready to entertain a noted person and get their names on the first page of the newspaper. It is quite another matter to make an equally sumptuous affair (Dec, 8-2) and of fer hospitality graciously to the der elicts of society. Yet Jesus assert ed that such an act of helpfulness would be reckoned as done unto the King, whose people were thus cared for. Notice the variety of services that the Master suggested: food, drink, clothing, a bed, or just a visit to one who is in prison by reason of some hard circumstance. Such acts do not effect salvation, for that comes only through the sacrificial work on the cross. Kindness to others does count for those who are heirs of grace. Those deeds are not done with the reward in mind but rather in the name of and for the sake of Jesus Christ Paul's famil iar statement "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap," ap plies to good and bad deeds, and to those who neglect to be positive in either direction. The Teacher was very positive in denouncing the sins of omission. All waste hours rather than serve minutes in helping our neighbors. Open your eyes, reach out your hands and you will be in contact with some "neighbor" who needs what you are well able to do. Then we have a different attitude in kind ness toward the one we are really seeking to help. Dated at Heppner, Oregon, this 6th day of November, 1929. R. L. BENGE, Judge. G. A.
