THE most encouraging sign of the times we have seen, so far as the farmer is concerned, is the estimate of the U. S. Department of Agricul ture that the Winter wheat crop will be about 42 percent less than last year and 17 percent less than the average of the five-year period of 1924-28. In those years the aver age production of Winter wheat was 551 million bushels. Last year the farmers of the nation produced 787 million bushels. No wonder wheat prices stayed down. This year there will be only 458 million bushels of Winter wheat to supply the market's needs. That will inevitably result in a better price, probably a profitable price, for those who have it to sell. Near ly 14 percent of the lands which have been devoted to wheat grow ing were not sown for this year's crop. Drought in the Great Plains area is largely responsible for this fact, however, rather than intelli gent foresight on the part of wheat farmers. The importance of anything which will tend to give any con siderable part of the nation's farm ers a better price and a larger pro fit extends to everybody. Not every farmer is a wheat grower, by any means. But wheat is one of the five great agricultural staples the others are corn, cotton, tobacco and potatoes upon which the prosper ity, not only of the farmer but of the whole nation, depend. There has been overproduction in all of these for the past two or three years. Growers have not received enough to enable them to buy the commodities they need. That is true of almost everybody else, and the vicious circle will not be broken un til some large class or group finds itself with some surplus money to spend. If the Winter wheat growers get ' a fair price for their crop, as pre sent indications suggest they are likely to, that may be the one thing needed to start the public to spend ing money again instead of being afraid to let go of a penny. And that will start us back on the road to prosperity. racketeers and gangsters. I Under those old laws, any person known to be an habitual violator of the laws, whether convicted under the rules of evidence or not, could be declared an outlaw that is, without the protection of the law. It became the duty of every citizen, then, to kill such an outlaw on sight His property was forfeited and his family prohibited from car rying on his name. That was an effective means of dealing out summary justice. It has been used in the United States more than once in the past century and a half. The suggestion will make the tender-hearted shudder, but so did the kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby. We think the time is here for the tightening up of the criminal laws. As long as crooks can corrupt leg islative bodies and courts, they will continue to flourish and imperil the lives and prperty of honest men. We think the taxpayers are paying too much now for the board, and lodging of prisoners in Jails. We think it might be a good idea to consider the more effective and ec onomical way of ridding the nation of known criminals by declaring them outlaws. Doesn't It Make You Di By Albert T. Reid WHY NOT OUTLAW THE GANGSTERS? Autocaster Service. THE suggestion is made by the dean of Duke University Law School that legislators might well consider a revival of the old Eng lish statutes of outlawry, as a means of checking the activities of Sunday School Lesson n W.C.T.U. NOTES MARY A. NOTSON. Reporter. The Harrisburg, Pa., Patriot has this to say about the proposal of the wets to end hard times by le galizing beer: An illustration or the panicky state of mind which has inflicted some Americans is the advocacy by some bankers of 3 per cent beer as a cure for world economic distress. Nothing but muddled thinking would permit men in conspicuous financial position to harbor such an absurd idea. "In the first place the suggestion that President Hoover could pro vide intoxicating beer by official proclamation is so mnch prattle. The Constitution gives him no such power and even if he had a mind to do it, he would be conscious of its impossibility under the Constitution. "But if that is not enough to brand the beer idea childish, then conditions in England and Ger many do it In such countries economic distress is incomparably worse than in the United States, yet in both these foreign nations beer is plentiful and flowing, yet all its plentifulness and all its flowing have done nothing to end or amel iorate the industrial depression there. "The people of this country have sense enough to know that such foolish proposals will not get them out of the industrial ditch. They know if they think a minute that the world is going through the af termath of the .greatest and the most disastrous war in history, a war in which millions of men and billions of dollars' worth of prop erty were destroyed utterly. "For such cataclysms there is a price to be paid and the world is paying, must pay it nefore it can swing into the sunshine of better times. At heart this country is sound and promising. It faces an issue and cannot dodge it. It is tightening its belt in good spiri and is looking ahead. To have lot of wet propagandists cloud the sun with the ridiculous vapor that hard times can be ended by beer is only making industrial recovery more difficult. It is truth and courage, not heresy and hysteria, that the country needs today, The proponents of the initiative measure to repeal all the prohibi tion enforcement laws of the State are manifestly dishonest in their proposition. If they really believed that prohibition should be done away with, they should have asked for the repeal of the two amend ments to the constitution which prohibit the manufacture, sale and importation of intoxicating liquors. They have simply proposed to cripple law enforcement and make it more difficult for every officer of the State to live up to his oath "to International Sunday School Lesson for April 24. ABRAM'S GENEROSITY TO LOT. Genesis 13:5-15. Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. In ordinary times the old saying is true: "Money makes money, Certainly at all times it is a fact that sheep make sheep. It was so in the case of Abram and Lot his nephew. They had goodly herds when they left Haran in Mesopot amia and the animate kept on mul tiplying until both men were cattle owners of real consequence. The ever increasing animals brought the problem of sufficient water and grazing places. The herdsmen of each owner became Jealous for the charges under their respective care and began to contend over the open pasturage. Uncle Abram, like many uncles we know, was a truly big man. He loved his nephew and felt a keen responsibility for his care, and Lot often needed Just that help. It was noble of the older man to say "Let there be no strife." Harsh words must be faced after they are spok en and years are often required to overcome the scar that is made in a moment of lack of self control. Mindful of the great open country Abram proposed that there be a separation of the flocks. A good bit of fresh air will stop many from quarreling and even a brisk walk around the block is a seditive. Op portunity for first choice is gra ciously given by Uncle Abram to nephew Lot and the selfish younger man chooses the better portion. As they looked toward the Jordan val ley the fields seemed greener there. Yes, and so was Sodom, with all of its profligacy which evidently had become a place of recreation for Lot Certainy they were not Je- hovahmen there and Lot endanger ed his moral and spiritual life by heading in that direction. It may have been because Abram was disheartened at this evident selfishness on the part of Lot. Right then Jehovah gave a wonderful compensation In a renewal of the vision and promise which pledged a transcendent future. support the Constitution of the State." Every honest wet who rates himself a good citizen should vote against this subterfuge, this dishonest trick, which will appear on the ballot in November. As long as prohibition is in the Constitu tion, it is incumbent upon officers to try to enforce it, but without the statutory machinery provided by the laws which this initiative meas ure proposes to repeal the task would be exceedingly difficult. Bullish Price for Wheat Effect of Weather Report Weather markets definitely ruled wheat prices this week, creating nervous, uncertain situation, with prices working gradually toward higher levels, says Portland Grain exchange for week ending April 16 Thore is no doubt that there has been considerable damage to the crop resulting from severe winter killing which rain will not repal and the condition of winter wheat in Kansas, Texas and Nebraska Is slowly bringing a realization that a sensationally bullish situation has developed. The financial situation has Induced a pessimism that has overshadowed the prospects of higher wheat prices. The visible supply in North America is more than last year. but the increase Is accounted for mainly by larger stocks of farm board wheat held in Canadian ele vators. In spite of larger farm stocks and slow foreign demand, the prospects of foreign require ments and low yields at home are decidedly favorable to better prices, Growing conditions in the Pacific Northwest are ideal and prospect for a large crop is bright. There is no export business and no' d mand from California but the cash situation continues tight. Portland Futures made net gain for the week as follows: May up 4 3-4c.

WADi-ux, Boardman, Oregon, (Paid Advertisement) 7k FAMDILY roo(D)f JOHN JOSEPH 6AINES,M.D TO SMOKERS Men WILL smoke. As proof, see the sky-scrapers built by profits on short smokes." It is my purpose to talk sanely on the subject of the universal habit; it is the mighty small minority these days who don't consume in one way or another. The safest, best smoke, say what they may is with the properly- groomed tobacco-pipe. Bear in mind, I'm not a propagandist I m a family doctor today, employed by myself. To serve my people. It s like eating-T-smoking is; the slower you eat or smoke the less the danger of overdoing. It is the fast eater the rapid smoker that goes "hay-wire" from excess. One naturally smokes the pipe with more deliberation than he would a cigarette or cigar. The fellow who smokes three when a wise man would consume one, will go to pieces just three times as quickly as the deliberate smoker; I know, for I've seen them do it. The inhalation of imperfect-com bustion gases works havoc with the smoker's nervous system; not nico tine in one case out of a hundred, The fast smoker pulls carbon mon oxide, a deadly gas, into his respir atory tract the homeopathic dose gets results in time most surely, and nerves go to pieces from Its effects. Hence the advantage of the long- stemmed pipe, smoked with proper deliberation. Even a good cigar should last almost an hour and its wet end shouldn't be clung to as some would have it your nicotine if any is in that wet end. Throw it away. Smoking should be an act of lei sure. Always. Under its influence the mental processes flow more smoothly, and brain-fag fades away more quickly. I must say that it is better to smoke not at all, than to abuse the treat the privilege, by debauching it The evil or good of smoking depends on how it's done.
