FIRE FORCE NEEDED.
T AST week the Are alarm sounded
on four successive days. Each
time it sent chills through the
spines of residents of the city. Only
one of the flres, that which razed
a residence on south Court street,
resulted in property damage with
in the city. Two were grass fires
of little consequence. The fourth
consumed two stacks of hay on the
R. I. Thompson farm up Willow
creek. Aroused over the damage
done by the first fire, people re
sponded readily to the three suc
cessive alarms, and as the flres
were of such nature that expert
knowledge was not required to
fight them, efforts of the fighters
met with success.
Concensus of opinion, however,
is that a little expert knowledge by
men trained to respond more read
lly to the alarm would have re
sulted In saving much of the loss In
the first instance.
Who knows but what the next
alarm will summon our people to a
fire in one of the fire-trap districts
which, if uncontrolled, might result
in thousands of dollars loss in
property damage. Experience in
the past has taught that such cat
astrophes happen, and they do not
give warning ahead of time. It
might come any day. Is it going to
take another disastrous fire to re
freshen our minds to the fact that

PHILIP'S MISSIONARY LABORS
Acts 8:26-40
Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D.
It may be hard to be turned aside
from present activities to under
take some new work but very often
this change is a blessing In dis
guise. The changed field may pro
duce far larger results than the one
in which we are contentedly estab
lished. Philip was making great
progress in Samaria with his re
vival. It was just the situation
that most people would say needed
the attention of the evangelist from
Jerusalem who had already accom
plished so much. God has the whole
field in view and often needs an ac
tive worker for another location.
It works that way in business and
the system is not different in the
spiritual realm.
He traveled south about 100 miles
before any Indication was revealed
of the work for which he had left
the company in Samara. Then a
man was observed in a chariot who
was reading aloud. Again there is
a direction from the Holy Spirit
and Philip accosts the treasurer of
Candace, queen of the Ethiopians.
This man had been to Jerusalem
and while en route homeward was
reading from Isaiah "53:7. This re
ferred to the Messiah. Now this
treasurer was a master at finances
but poor in interpreting Scrpiture.
Philip asks a question which each
pastor and other teachers of the
Bible should propound: "Under
standest thou what thou readest?"
His offer to expound the Scriptures
is accepted and Philip now enters
upon an active ministry by the
roadside.
Again there was a call to proceed
northward and the convert is left
that a work of evangelizing may be
followed as far northward as Cae
sarea. The Golden Text sets forth
the activity that should be per
formed by ejery believer: "They
therefore that were scattered
abroad went about preaching the
word." Acts 8:4.

RADIO ADVERTISING.
(Autocaster Service)
WE WONDER if everybody is as
tired of advertising over the
radio as we are. We wonder if the
people who are paying for radio ad
vertising are getting their money's
worth out of it But at the same
time we wonder how we could get
many of the really wonderful pro
grams that we hear over our radio
if advertisers didn t pay for it.
Somebody has to pay for radio
broadcasting. That goes without
saying. Some broadcasting is paid
for by political and other propa-
andists, and most of that sort or
stuff we have listened to is pretty
dreary.
In Russia we understand people
cannot hear anything but propa
ganda through their radio sets. In
France the government owns all
the radio stations but leases time
on the air to advertisers who, we
understand, do not make any very
successful attempts at entertain
ment In England there is a fairly
liberal system of government con
trol of broadcasting. Only one
company is licensed to broadcast
and it operates all of the stations
in the British Isles. It gets its rev
enue from an annual tax of ten
shillings, or about $2.50 on each re
ceiving set. You cannot have a re
ceiving set in England without pay
ing this tax. The government col
lects the money and divides it with
the broadcasting company which
develops and puts on its own pro
grams of entertainment and educa
tion, but there is always a govern
ment censor listening in and there
is a decided limitation of free ex
pression of ideas and opinions over
the radio.
The last thing we want in Ameri
ca is any kind of government cen
sorship. Freedom of speech and of
the press is one of the fundamental
principles of our democracy. There
is always a bureaucratic clique in
Washington which would like to
control not only all radio broad
casting but the newspapers and all
public speakers as well. The worst
thing that could happen to Ameri
can liberty would be to let govern
ment or any part of the govern
ment prescribe what people may
think or say.
Probably, on the whole, our
American system of letting adver
tisers pay for our entertainment is
the best We certainly get better
entertainment over the radio than
they do anywhere else, from all re
ports, just as we have better news
papers in America because our
newspaper advertisers make them
possible. But we do wish these
broadcasting advertisers would use
a little more restraint and a great
many fewer words in telling us
about the merits of their wares.
THOSE EUROPEAN DEBTS.
(Autocaster Service)
THE principal impression which
the international financial con
ferences make upon us is that the
United States is for the first time
since the war taking the part in in
ternational affairs which our coun
try's position as the world's wealth
iest and most prosperous nation de
mands of us. It is announced from
Washington that in officially repre
senting the United States in the
Conference on International Debts
our Secretary of State, Mr. Stim
son, and our Secretary of the
Treasury, Mr. Mellon, will take no
part in the political aspects of ahe
European situation.
It is very difficult to see how they
can keep out of it. International
debts are necessarily involved in
politics. When a nation owes mon
ey the method whereby that debt
is to be paid has to be decided in
the long run by the politicians of
that nation, precisely as the meth
od of paying the interest on town
or school district bonds and amort
izing the principal has to be deter
mined in the long run by the poli
ticians of the town or the school
district.
International debts are just like
all public debts, in that the prom
ises of politicians to pay them are
not always based upon the ability
of the town, county, state or nation
to pay. That seems to be Germany's
case. She owes more than she can
pay, but she has, given very good
evidence of desire and willingness
to pay. All reports from Germany
are that the poeple there are work
ing harder and longer hours than
anywhere else In the world and are
living on next to nothing in the ef
fort to pay the heavy taxes which
the national debt requires. Even
doing the best they can the country
cannot meet its obligations. The
oldfashioned way of meeting a sit
uation like that was for the credit
or nations to send an army Into
the country and take possession of
it. The modern way is for all of
the nations to whom Germany owes
money to get together, as they are
DEANS HONORED
If Each Could Choose
doing in London, and try to figure
a way out, based upon Germany's
proved and actual ability to pay,
just as in private business a com
mittee of creditors might work out
a plan to enable a debtor to meet
his obligations gradually.

MARY A. NOTSON, Reporter.
British Columbia does not fur
nish much proof that the plan of
William Randolph Hearst to fi
nance a five-bililon-dollar bond is
sue out of taxes to be levied upon
liquors would be a success. The en
tire province has a population of
about 525,000, considerably less
than twice the population of Port
land, Oregon. In 1921, the govern
ment control plan was put into ef
fect. Spirits and wine are sold in
unlimited quantities in 75 stores.
Beer is sold by the glass in 307 beer
parlors. N There are 66 licensed
clubs. There are 396 places not
owned by the government where
liquors are sold. The first nine
months of the government plan
showed liquor sales of $6,300,000.
Last year the sales amounted to
the sum of $19,500,000, showing that
the sales have doubled in nine
years. The total liquor bill for the
nine years is nearly $122,000,000. In
1920 the public debt was $34,000,000
Within three years it had stepped
up to $69,000,000, and on Nov. 1
1930, it was over $102,000,000.
Under government control, in the
province of Quebec, all kinds of
liquors are sold in 204 cash and
carry stores. Wine and beer are
sold without limit in 708 hotels and
restaurants. Beer is sold by the
glass in 620 beer parlors. In 1,654
grocery stores and butcher shops
beer may be bought by the bottle.
There are 148 licensed clubs. Al
together there are 3,340 liquor sell
ing places, and the population of
the province is slightly more than
2,360,000. The drink bill for the
nine years amounted to $520,000,000.
The other provinces, except
Prince Edward Island, show a sim
ilar record. Prince Edward Island
has prohibition. The population is
88,615. Convictions for serious of
fences number less than one-tenth
the rate for Canada as a whole.
There has not been an execution in
forty years. Divorces are almost
unknown. There is no unemploy

as many cattle, and eight times as

THE EVIDENCE
My readers may possibly wonder
why I am so frequently denouncing
the six o'clock dinner; this, when
so many of our foremost citizens
indulge the feast as a sort of tri
umph of civilization; and, when so
many of our leading physicians and
dieticians patronize it without Bay
ing anything about it Here are
some of my reasons:
(1) From a long study of aged
men and women, I find the longest
lived to be those who are hearty
breakfast-eaters, and who do not
load the digestive tract at the eve
ning meal.
(2) From a study of vital statis
tics, I find that six o'clock dinner
devotees succumb to "heart dis
ease" or cerebral haemorrhage,
never later than the middle sixties.
These are city-dwellers, who are
too busy to eat necessary meals
until the day's business is done.
(3) If I were to Inject the ex
pressed juice of the average six
o'clock dinner into a patient's veins
I feel sure I would kill him instant
roads, more postoffices, more tele
graph lines, more churches, and
more money in the savings banks
per capita than any other Canad
ian province. The police force of
the entire province consists of thir
teen men.
O.S.C. Discovers! Another
Animal Disease Immunity
With the discovery of a new hyper-immune
serum which will pro
tect dogs from the dreaded salmon
poisoning disease which has long
been a serious problem to the live
stock industry of the coastal re
gions, Oregon State college experi
ment station has developed its
third Immunity a record believed
to be unequalled by any station In
the United States. The other two,
both of which are now In general
use, are immunities against chicken
pox and coccidiosis of chickens.

at the experiment station found
that the deadly disease caused in
dogs, foxes or coyotes from eating
salmon and sometimes trout, was
carried by a parasite in the fish,
The life cycle and habits of the
fluke were studied, and many ex
periments conducted in the search
for a means of controlling the dis
ease.
In announcing the discovery of
the new serum before a group of
100 veterinarians from Oregon,
Washington and British Columbia
gathered at the college for their an
nual convention last week, the ex
periment station veterinarians
pointed out that salmon poisoning
may also be transmitted by a blood
injection, a fact which was used as
the basis for the development of
the immunizing serum. This is said
to be the first time in the history of
medical science that a fluke has
been found to act as a carrier for
an infectious disease.
The effectiveness of the new ser-

disease has teen definitely estab

ferent sections of western Oregon,
according to Dr. B. T. Simms, head
of the veterinary department at the
college. No means of curing sal
mon poisoning after It has been
contracted has yet been found,
however, and the study will be con

RETURNS FROM CONVENTION.
Dr. A. D. McMurdo, who returned
home Sunday evening from the
convention or the Eastern Oregon
District Medical association, held
at Wallowa Lake on Saturday, re
ported a wonderful meeting. It was
one of the very best so far held,
and the treatment of guests, and
the surroundings were superlative,
he said. Dr. McMurdo was presi
dent of the association for the year
just closed.
Only one thing happened to mar
the smoothness and dispatch of the
proceedings, he said. Dr. C. J.
Bartlett cracked up his plane In
flying over from Baker, accompan
ied by Drs. Higgins and Gordon,
also of Baker. Luckily there were
no serious Injuries, all escaping un
hurt with the exception of Dr. Gor
don ,' who received slight bruises.
The plane landed in a clump of
willows which broke the fall.
Paul M. Gemmell returned home
last Thursday from Portland where
he received treatment for three
weeks for injuries to his spine, at
the veterans' hospital. His condi
tion was not improved and he has
been bedfast since, suffering much
pain.
