No one can blame tin; farmers of Oregon mid tlie entire country for a feel hi of irrita tion at this continued delay, which is rapidly approaching indignation. Farm loans iif.'j,M-L'Kiitin; more than $."100,000,1 II 10 have been held up for nearly a year, as a result of the suit instituted by Charles K. Smith, a stockholder in thu Kansas City Title anil Trust company, to test the validity of this act. ' In Oregon the need for financial aitl is over whelming. "With the liijrji rates of interest, the low prices for livestock and produce, many farmers face ruin- if they are not soon supplied with financial assistance to weather the storm. Money is needed for investment in new equipment and stock, if normal production in this slate is to be maintained. The situation is truly critical, and from the standpoint of tlie public welfare, a prompt decision is imperative. It is certainly ironical, that the one time when the Federal Farm liOan Act is most urgently needed, il should be rendered impotent by I he law's delay. There are many explanations for this delay, but how ever valid, they can not mitigate the genuine suffering1 and sacrifice entailed. Although the Supreme Court is properly removed from the passing whims of public clamour, and coercion is not only impossible, but from the standpoint of public policy undesirable; there would seem lo be no impropriety in a public memorial calling attention to tlie farmer's predicament, and the losses involved in continued delay. The two main contentions of the plaintiffs are that the Farm Loan act is an exercise of power congress does not possess under the con stitution, and that tax exemption on farm loan securities is illegal. While no layman is competent to judge the intricacies of legal ques tions, it would seem that a year's deliberation for such eminent ju rists would be sufficient to decide any problem, the solution of which is so vital to the public welfare.

I DO NOT envy Warren (J., his task T would not share; I have no presidential bee, I want no White House chair, for all it brings, as lie will see, is plain and fancy care. He's full of high re solves, you know, our confidence lo earn; he'd make tlie wheels of commerce go, as all good wheels should turn, anil put the lid on every woe, and give us joy to burn. And if we all stood at his back, to help as best we might, to share the burden he must pack, mid cheer him day and night, he might enjoy that old white shack and think his work delight. But ere he's fairly wanned his seat n million hungry chaps will ask, why in the name of Pete, they don't get public snaps, and they will stop him in thu street and bore him with their yaps. And he will sit at night and sigh, and cuss the awkward fates that put him in a place so high, where only trouble waits; no nation has enough of pie to feed the hungry skates. And those who fail to get a slice will say he is a fake, and they will hand him chunks of ice when he's expecting cake, and once n day or maybe twice his weary heart will break. And he will walk with dragging step to meet his callers gay, and they will see he loses pep with every passing day; and soon he'll sum mon Old Hog Shep to chase the bores away. PERU ENTERTAINS ATLANTIC FLEET AT HOUSE RAGES JJMA, I'eru, Jan. 'CI. officers and sailors of the American Atlantic fleet today entered upon a four-day pro gram of entertainment arranged in their honor by the Peruvian jjovern inent and the people hero.

High teen destroyers and several supply ships reached Cal lao ahead of the main fleet. A fog delayed the fleet considerably during the last stages of its trip from Pan ama.

He demanded Its revision which, he declared, there seemed ,-little doubt was being se riously considered by the allies. The speaker denounced "the hor rors of ihe I'unjab refill of terror." and supported the non-co-operation movement in progress anions the na tives as a protest against Ilritish rule. "There is a divine injunction to Mussulmans to practice non-co-operation against the opponents of Islam," said Dr. Ansnr. "Then; appears to be a deadlock between the bureaucracy and tin; people of India, which is en tirely bec ause India lias awakened to a keen sense of self-respect and is de termined no Inncer to submit to a secondary position, whereas the bu reaucrat is still thinkin:; in obsolete terms of governing with the mailed fist. i "in order to win tho co-operation of the people of India, our alien friends must first of all disabuse their minds of the idea of race supremacy and do ample penance fur past wrongs."
