pany store at the noon luncheon of

ment to the Pacific northwest, where
lumbermen are waiting for a new
market for their product, which Is

the sheen of silk and rayon, which
U rapidly being decreased, Mr. Bolger

WOULD DESTROY
OF
(Continued trotn Page Cms)
on, "to destroy our hopes of a bal
anced budget and to deal a smashing
blow to national confidence. Is to me
simply Incomprehensible. The propo
nents of this measure fully recognise
that the cost cannot be borne by
legitimate mean. . . . they would
discharge what they state to be a
solemn obligation to the government
... by setting the printing presses
to work printing dishonest dollars.
"For a great, powerful nation . . .
deliberately to adopt this Insidious
and essentially dishonest device would
to my mind be worse than an act of
financial bankruptcy. It would con
stitute moral bankruptcy.
"Destroy confidence and you dry up
credit and paralyze enterprise. No
measure was ever drafted better cal
culated to destroy confidence than
the one now before you. Enact It
Into law and you will stifle all hope
of any early economic recovery and
write the mont lamentable chapter In
American history."

BUDGET BALANCE,
(Continued from Page One.)
"We cannot restore economic sta
bility in the nation by continuing to
siphon so large a part of private ef
fort into the coffers of the govern
ment," he said. "Its abstraction from
the people stifles the productivity,
the consumption and the recovery of
employment.
"Nor can we hide our heads in
the sand by borrowing to cover cur
rent government expenses, for thus
we drain the capital of the country
into public securities and draft it
away from Industry and commerce."
He urged study of the tax prob
lem with a view toward reorganiza
tion to distribute the burden more
evenly, and cutting down duplication
In taxation by the federal, state and
local governments. Especially he
spoke with disfavor of the general
property tax, relied on heavily by
states and local governments.

BERRY GROWERS
PLAN ENFORCING
CANNERY PLEDGE
PORTLAND, April 27. (AP) In
formation that fruit growers of Ore
gon are attempting to band together
to hold canners and packers to pres
ent contracts, has been sent over the
state, the Journsl said today.
The article remarks that In past
years some packers have broken their
agreements either directly or Indir
ectly, so that contracts written at
higher prices a year or so before the '
producing season avail the producer
nothing.
The paper said some buyers and
contractors of strawberries, raspber
ries and loganberries In Oregon this
year are advising growers they may
as well tear up their contracts be
cause they are not worth the paper
they are written on.
The article said that many grow
ers this year not only will Insist
upon acceptance of contracted ber
ries but will demand state inspection
on rejected stock.
