Complaining Is Waste.

IX)S AN'CKLES, Jan. 22.
j This Pacific Coast goes along
cheerfully, as well it may, with
so many states in the t'nion,
helping to build up population
and prosperity here.
It's against the unwritten
law in -this neighborhood tn
complain, carry an umbrella or
wear an overcoat. Besides this
is a land of "everything can be
done."
Mrs. Seuddcr, the potato chip
(pieen, says:
"If easterners that complain
about business would put into
their business Ithe energy used
1 in complaining, they would not
need to complain."
She fries 10(1 tons of pota
toes in a month.
M
Nature recognizes no depres
sion and this coast has gigantic
crops. The "Sunkist," co-operative
organization of orange
growers, will ship 70,000 cars
this year, compared with 50,000
cars last year. Thirty-three
years ago they shipped 1800
ears.
Tell yo;ir groeer he should
sell his oranges cheaper this
year. They ijost him less at
wholesale, and selling good
oranges is public service.

There is still gold to .be
found, if you know where to
look.
I At Alamos, in the state of
Sonora, where Governor Klias
tides, an American, L. S. Pat
terson, bought an old mine
from Felipe do Iza. After six
months, discouraged, he sold
the mine back to De Iza. The
latter went to see what work
Patterson had done, tapped a
rock with a small hammer, un
covering a vein of gold now
yielding $2000 a ton. But don't
let that persuade you to buy
stock in n gold mine. When it
runs $2000 a ton they don't
sell it.
President Hoover, as Mr. "R.
0. 11." of the San Bernardino
Sun observes, is now in com
mand and leader of prohibition
in the I'nited States-. .
' In a few words the President
said more about prohibition
than the AVickersham commis
sion said iu 100,000 lines, and
said it far more definitely,

I of .Multnomah county. It would!
exempt the city of Portland from 1

The Woodward bill applies to
cities of 3UO.0U0 population or more.
Senator Jennett of Multnomah
county today introduced a bill to
chnnge the dale of the Oregon pri

it would shift the primary from the
third Friday to the second Tuesday
in May. All primary elections
thereafter would be held on the
second Tuesday of September, be
ginning with the year 1934. Sena

of the measure was to get away

OF VALLEY
Annual Meeting of League
Well Attended Swett
Cites Stabilization As
Main Need in Industry
Quality, Size Paramount
Fruit men of the Rogue River
valley growers, shippers and pack
ers, gathered at the Kll;a temple
this afternoon at the annua! meet-
! ing of the FYulgroweiV lougue and
to hear an address by Frank T.
i Sweet, president of the California
l'ear C rowers' association, and
recognized as an eminent author
ity on Pacific coast conditions.
It was the largest attended meet
ing of the fruit interests in many
years and it was estimated that 90
per cent of the fruti industry of
the valley was present.
Edward W. "Carle ton, president
of the Fruitgrowers' league, pre
sided. Stabilization of the pear Indus
try was the main theme of Swett's
talk, and he discussed several ten
tative plans toward that end. He
said that none of the plnns dis
cussed had proven satisfactory to
both growers and shippers.
- Quality Paramount
However, he declared, it was
generally agreed that it was "in
sanity" lu u year of a big crop to
ship undersized or defective pears
east, and that it was also the con.
. census of conservative opinion, re
i gardless of any formal agreement,
: that quality and size of pears, both
I for eastern shipments and canner
J ies, must be improved,
j Swett gave figures to show the
financial state of the fruit indus
try in California. He has recently
1 spoken at 14 meetings of glowers
in California.
He described conditions in Cali
fornia last year and said 'that for
the first time in IB years orchards
there had as a whole failed to pay
expenses. He said that, although
the Hart let i crop of the Pacific
const was not greatly in excess of
lf2it, the loss of buying power by
the people of the I'nited Stntes
and Kurope caused the net prices
to growers to bo only $20 a ton, a
drop of $! per ton from the pre
vious year.
Slump Disastrous
Swett declared the growers could
break even at $:it per ton, but that
the slump was disastrous last year
as eastern prices sagged. Added to
this was the ravages of the blight
in many districts of California,
which brought xtru pxihmihuh.
Swett estimated that about 2000
acres of pears in the Sacramento:
valley are being removed. He fore
casted that the Hartlett production
In the early districts might show
a decrease In the future, but there
might also be un increase in late
llartletts which would bring an in
creasingly difficult surplus to han
dle from August 1 to September 1.
Relative to the canners, Swett
said they are having trouble dis
posing ol their output, and it Is
doubtful if they break even, lie es
timated the average per ton for
canning llartletts at 27. He said
! the canners may be still more con.
servalive in 1!;tl, in the event "f
,a big crop, and the continuation of
depressed conditions. He said that
canned pears can now be bought at
to 27 cents per can the lowest
price in years, and that low
prices may clean up the entire
pack before the HUH penrs ate
ready,

Optimistic Report On Sa

in Future.
The southern Oregon delegation
returned yesterday from Salem
well satisfied with the discussion
of the Rogue river fish loir bill
i lion participated
No definite results of the hear
ing, however, couM be realized.
members of the Rogue river com
mitlee stated this morning, ai
the legislature is at the present
"Just marking time." Much evl
dence wan Introduced by both
sides at the hearing and many
subjects left, unsettled because- of
lack of time for complete dis
cussion.
An inlercHtlnir feature of the
argument offered by tho (lold
Reach delegation, led tiy Macleay,
was the list of business houses
qttoted as protesting the closing
of the Rogue. For In the list,
members of the Rogue river com
mlttee state, were the names of
several men, who have contrib
uted funds tu the 'campaJm, Ion,
cloying the river. The committee
members believe that the names
wero secured through fear, rather
than a sincere desire to oppose
lnp measure.
Articles deallnir with isolated
cases Of fiHh lost in the upper
Rogue River valley through irri
gation ditches, which were pub
lished by the southern Oregon
press, were read by the opposi
tion. Members of the local dele
gation then explained that the ar
ticles wero of no consequonco in
relation to loss of fish life, in
Unit fish are seldom lost In this
way.
Tho number of salmon that
passed over the Savage Rapids
dam last spring wns dwelt upon
to great extent by Macleay, who
told the committee that one half
the fish passing over the dam
were females, who would replenish
tho stream with a tremendous
number of salmon.
Argument Fails.
This argument, the local dele
gation staled, was destroyed by
T. 12. Daniels, who cited authori
ties of the United States bureau
of fisheries to prove that in a
salmon run there is seldom more
than one female to lx fish.
Prof. Irving Vlning closed the
rebuttal for the Rogue River
committee and his talk was fol-j
lowed by great applause from
the 300 people, who attended
the hearing.
The veniito chambel was filled ,
to capacity for the hearing una
the crowd remained until tho close
of all arguments. At the close
of the meet I nir members of the
Oold Reach delegation shook
hands with the Rogue river com
mlttee and specially thanked Prof,

committee for the friendly way in
which the hearing was conducted.
