Comment on the Day's News By IBANK JENKINS UP IN THE Willamette valley, the biggest strawberry crop In his tory waa grown this spring. There was practically no market for tt. The canneries and barrelers were buying sparingly, and the fre&l fruit market couldn't begin to absorb the crop. MUCH the same situation exists regarding loganberries. There will be a big crop and very little market. No encouragement la being offered to growera of blackberries. The prune market Isn't encourag ing. Even the cherry, which Is nor mally In good demand, doesn't show a very good market prospect this year. Canneries generally, in the Willam ette valley, are buying very cautious ly Indeed. HEHE In the Rogue River valley this year, we are producing the largest tomato crop In our history. As a matter of fact, it Is the first tomato crop we have grown on a really large commercial scale. Practically the entire pack haa been sold, which means that the grower will get hta money when he delivers his tomatoes to the cannery. Considering conditions elsewhere, that Is something of an achievement. WHY Is this true? Well, here Is the answer: Here In the Rogue River valley, we have some exceedingly good marketing brains, and these good marketing brains have been appllJd to the to mato crop. The results speak for themselves. THE pear Is "the big commercial crop of the Rogue River valley. Statistically, the market outlook for Rogue river peara this year la good. The Southern peach crop, which Is a direct competitor of the Bartlett pear of thla district, has been heavily damaged. That takes a large quan tity of competing fruit out of the market. The Eastern, pear crop is exceed ingly light. The owner of a large .commercial Bartlett pear orchard In 'Missouri writes to a friend In Oregon: "There are so few peers on my trees this year that It will not pay me to pick them." WE DON't wish to gloat over oth ers' misfortunes, but we take the upa and downs as the markets as they come, profiting by the ups and losing by the downs. If supply elsewhere hsppens to be down this year, aa appears to be toe ease, it la our good fortune. Next year it may be otherwise, and we may be on the down end. So this year let us take whatever good for tune may be ours snd be thankful for It. AS TO dairying, the Rogue River valley Is at leaat aa well off as any other district. Its feed costs are low, and low feed costs are tremend ously Important in low price years such ss this. And so It Is with the poultry in. dustry such of it aa we have. Our feed costs are low, and as in the esse of dairying low feed costs In bad price years enable the producer to survive and carry on until price conditions Improve. WHY all this boasting about our selves st this particular mo ment? Here Is the snswer: We of the Rogue River valley are really better off than the average In thla year of general business grief, and It does us no harm to realize that fact. It NEVER does us sny harm to realize our blessings along with our trials. THE Rogue River valley la funda mentally sound. It will come out of this period of deflation and read Justment in good condition, which mesne that It will get off to a flying start In the Inevitable period of lm. proving business and Increasing de velopment that will follow toe pres. ent depression. Keep your eye on the Rogue River valley. It Is going to be worth wstch Ing. a ntj, incidentally, keep your eye on the men who are keeping up their courage In these trying times. They are going to be the big men of ths coming decades. (Continued on Page 8U) Garner Suffers Attack of Grippe WASHINGTON.

SERVANT'S SUICIDE LOSES PORTENT IN LATE REVELATIONS Violet Sharpe and Ex-Convict Friend Cleared of Suspicion in Lindbergh Kidnaping by Butler BEENHAM. Englsnd, June , 11- (AP) Scotland yard officials eald tonight they were convinced Emily Sharpe, alster of Violet Sharpe, who committed aulclde yesterday In New Jersey, had nothing to do with the slaying of the Lindbergh baby. STOURBRIDGE, Eng., June 11. (API Violet Sharpe, maid In the Morrow home at Englewood, N. J killed herself because the police "drove her crazy" with their constant questioning about the kidnaping of the Lindbergh baby, her hlster Emily Sharpe declared today. "It's sll so cruel." the sister stld. Violet would never have done any thing to that child or helep anyone who wanted to harm It." By ROBERT CAVAGNARO Associated Press Staff Writer ALPINE, N. J., June 11. (AP) The fabric of an outwardly promis ing inquiry fashioned from the sui cide of a Morrow aervant woman ap peared to be crumpling tonight In the hands of the Lindbergh murder investigators. Information supplied by a loyal friend, the Morrow butler, discred ited any link between Miaa Violet Sharpe, and waitress, who drank a deadly poison, and Ernest Brinkert, an ex-convlct, on the night of March 1 when the Lindbergh baby was kid naped. Further, police found an Ernest Miller and Miss Catherine Mtnners, who Identified themselves aa Miss Sharpe's companions on an automo bile ride that night. Their Joint statement, coupled with an alibi from Brinkert, tended to clear both him and Miss Bharpe of any suspicion. Find Ride Companion A chap named Miller." said In spector Harry Walsh of the police. "22 years old, of Closter, N. J., haa told us that he was the 'Ernie" who went riding with Miss Sharpe the night of March 1. He remembers the ride very well and everything that happened on it, and says he cannot understand why she kept it a secret from us. "Brinkert is remaining here. It is no fault of ours. We have not only Miller story but the story of Miss Minners, who was on the ride that night. She says Brinkert was not in the car." The suggestion that Miller was the "Ernie" Miss Sharpe knew came from Septimus Banks, Morrow butler, whom Walsh described as having an "affect lnate attachment for Miss Sharpe." Shortly after Miss Sharpe drank poison yesterday because she feared a fourth questioning by police, her em ployer, Mrs. Dwlght Morrow, reiter ated her faith In the aervant woman. Photo Identified However, police reiterated Miss Sharpe had identified a photograph of Brinkert as her companion on the night of the ride. "Has Brinkert given any Informa tion tending to link him with the kidnaping?" Inspector Walsh was asked. "No, not up to this time," he re plied, "but he will remain here for time being. This thing la pretty much of a puzzle. The inquiry isn't over. "Brinkert denies that h? has ever been In New Jersey. And he denied flatly that he knew Miss Sharpe or her sister. He said he had never seen them nor even heard of them up to yesterday." Walsh said a fourth member of the automobile party of March 1, an El mer Johnson of dostf- would be questioned. Subsequently, Colonel H. Norman Schwarzkopf, state police superin tendent, said: "Brinkert Is at Alpine and he has agreed to give us a complete written statement tomorrow." JUQUHl BY COURT PORTLAND.

FEHL IS GRANTED E The civil action of Ntedermeyer, Inc., against Earl H. Fehl, and the Pacific Record-Herald for collection of a mortgage alleged due on the weekly newspaper plant la scheduled to be heard the week or June 20, with Circuit Judge E. C.

VALLEY ORCHARDS BY 1800 to 2000 Acres Hit by Friday Evening Visitation Three-Inch Fall Re ported On Hall Ranch Accurate estimate of the damage to orchards by hall in the violent storm of Friday evening will not be avail able for a couple of week, according to County Agent Lyle P. Wilcox, who made a survey of the valley Saturday morning. The full fury of the storm was felt in the district east of Central Point, and the county agent reported that several orchards In that section were hard hit.

Large Area Hit It Is estimated by the county agent that between 1800 and 3000 acres of orchard land was beneath the hall storm, which was accompanied by a heavy rain. Some of the orchardlata estimate a 100 per oent loss and oth ers from 60 per cent down. The county agent expresses the opinion mat aome of the lose can be salvaged by thinning.
