The nir mail brings t Presi
dent Hoover a petition signed
,by the )i'esi(lentH of seven Ilni
tian political organizations ask
ing li i tn to keep our murines in
Haiti and supervise the presi
dential election coming in
April.
This year little Haiti 1ms 100
candidates for the presidency.
They are all fighting men, and
their followers are fighting fol
lowers. They want the marines
to slay and keep them from
Tdoing to each other things that
they might do.
E. 0. Seiiter, running fr gov
ernor of Texas, says: "I am
as much opposed to the reduc
tion of Texas to a dependency
of New York City gamblers and
stock brokers as I would he to
its annexation by Turkey."
And Mr. Senter is afraid that
"the busy marts of commerce
which now exist in our Texas
cities will soon become but,
roosts, and our banks will be
converted into subsidiaries of
Wall Street plungers, and our
state become n mere appendage
of distant landlords, unless,
etc."
All this sounds strange to a
distant conservative Eastern
candidate. He wonders what
it, is all about.'iind -asks hliu
' self, "Does that man in Texas
. really believe that the people
arc supposed to have anything
to say about their govern
ment ?"
Britain tries to be conserva
tive, but occasionally in a mo
ment, of excitement, thinfrs fro
wrong even there.
A gentleman named Matry,
trying to teach his fellow citi
zens how to "get rich quick,"
is in court and his fellow citi
zens have lost $100,000,000.
Even in our get-rich-quick
methods that would be doing
fairly well.
W. B. Mayo, aviation engi
neer, says a genuine nir line
ought to be built with n right
of way one mile wide, landing
fields every 15 miles.
Willi such an arrangement,
' says he, flight would be pos
sible ami safe by night and by
day, and in almost any kind of
weather.
However, lon before such

President of Fruit Growers
League Cites Examples
of Successful Co-operation
Van Hoevenberg
and Wood Also Speakers
at Meeting of Valley Fruit
Men Today.
At the annual meeting of the
Kr ii it growers' league, held this
afternoon ut the Hotel ' Med ford,
achievements of the past season
were reviewed, ami plans and poll-1
cit-s of the future discussed. There
was a. large attendance, and much!
interest manifested hy growers and!
distributors.
Addresses were made by Albert;
Hurch, president of the orgnni'a-:
Won, II. Van Hoevenberg, Jr., and
David It. Wood, chairman of the
Winter lenr committee. All dis
cussed the problems of the Jiogue
11 Ivor grower.
President Burch In his remarks
said:
"The keynote In all that has
been said relative to past accom
plishments or future aims is co
operation, and what is there about
co-operation that onuses some peo
ple to rise up in great anger, and
froth at the mouth, whenever the
word is mentioned?"
He cited as an example of co
operation the handing together of
the 1,1 colonies, and In modern
lime, the co-operation of the cop
per industry. The Talent and Med
ford Irrigation districts, were given
as local examples of co-operation,"
without which our fruit Industry
cannot prosper."
Watch Ma Hi et Act. .
"I take it that practically nil of
us are ready for some degree of
co-operation,, und the question is
merely In what degree, and how
far we shall go. Thin brings us
to n question that all of ub must
face sooner or later, and that Is.
whether we wish to use the Fede
ral Farm Marketing Act, und I
take it the most of us are disposed
to wait and see how It works out
with other commodities. 1 believe
in our present situation, we can
well afford to wait. All of us are
too intelligent to he misled by
statements, thnt any grower will
he compelled to Join. It Is Invl
tntionnl and not compulsory."
President Burch listed nmong
the accomplishments of the year,
a reduction of packing charges to
the growers; establishment of
weights for pear varieties when
packed; securing of federol and
county co-operation. In having n
drainage survey of the valley start
ed: launching of a movement for
securing a tariff on bananas; en
listing support of the Oregon con
gressional delegation in securing
promises of a federol appropria
tion for enlargement of the frost
protection work; efforts to secure
federal and state protection against
any invasion by the Mediterranean
fruit fly. and, support of the
Winter Pear committee campaign
in Detroit.
President Burch nlso named the
formation of the Pacific flrowers'
council as a forward step, and
that advertising of pears was both
n growers' and n distributors'
problem, "and we must see to It
If we are to prosper.'

David H. Wood, chairman of
the Winter Pear committee filed
n progress report fin the Hose
enmpaign In Detroit. Ills report
showed that In the campaign, the
Detroit sales exceeded the New
York average by 0.97 cents ner
box. He said this was In spite of
unfavorable conditions surround

when Attorney Fvnn I tea men will
begin his rebuttal address for tho

At the end Lunergnn mentioned
all tho charges thnt had been
made against his client In the dis
barment action started by George
Joseph. The charge that Mannix
had attempted to corrupt n mem
ber of the supreme court. Ijoner
gan said had been abandoned.
The bad check charges he referred
to ns "only n smoke screen, nnd
designed to tear down Mannix'
reputation. Relative to Mannix'
connection with the Wemme coses
the attorney sold tho records were
replete with evidence of his hon
esty and energy for whnt ho
thought was right.
Lonergan said the charges
against Mannix had been filed by
"one prejudiced to . the nth de

to the present status of th Wem

nothing was being done. He em
phasised the White Shield homo
