Comment
on the
Day 's News
By FRANK JENKINS
IK THESE days of business uncer
tainty, here ifi a figure you should
find Interesting:
Of all the farms In toe United
States, only 43 per cent are mort
gaged. Putting It the other way
around, fi8' per cent of all the farms
of this country are unincumbered In
iny way. "
HEBE Is another Interesting figure:
The federal land bank of Wich
ita, covering Colorado, Kansas, New
Mexico and Oklahoma, reports that
at tile end of January, 1933, B7'i per
'cent of the 30,700 farm loans held
by It In those four states were In
good standing with all sums due on
them paid In full.
Again putung It the other way
around, only 4214 per cent of the
loans held by Vila federal land bank
were In default In ay way.
IP THS ratio holds good for the
country as a whole. It means that
only 434 per ceit of 42 per cent
or about 18 per cent of all the
forms of the country are behind with
their mortgages.
FARMING, aa everybody knows, has
been about as hard hit as any
business In this country. If It Is
true that only 18 per cent of the
farms have mortgages that are In
default. It Is a pretty fair showing
for the business capacity of the farm
ers of the United States as a whole.
HEME Is another' Interesting state
ment, which won't be news to
anybody who. is reasonably Informed:
Nine-tenths of all the business
transacted in this country is done
by means of checks that Is- to say,
by bank credit.
That statement, you see, has quite
a bearing on the subjoct of Inflation
of the currency...
HTHV HrtM it?
W Well, It's like this: If nine
tenths of our business is done by
bank check, why do we need more
money in circulation?
The answer Is that we DONT. What
we need is more bank credit and
bank credit, as - you know. Is based
upon bank deposit"- About ten dol
lars In bank credit, In normal times,
Is based upon each dollar of bank
deposits.
In order to have more bank de
posits, we need more CONFIDENCE.
HOW are we going to get more
confidence?
To this write, It has seemed for
tome time that the answer to that
question Is this: By government
guarantee of bank deposits.
It might cost something to do that,
but If it resulted In Increased bank
deposits, with corresponding In
creases in the amount of bank credit
y available. It would be worth a LOT.
W
HILE we are on the subject of
figures, here are some more
that are Interesting:
Prom 1023 to 1025, deposits In fed
eral reserve member banks turned
over 32 times pe' vear' From the
fall of 1925 to 1829, when the the
tor market crash came, turnover
of deposits In these banks Increased
to 45 times per year.
In the last quarter of 1932, turn
over of deposit in federal reserve
member banks dropped to 16 times
per year.
WHEN
business Is going good
IT
money turns over rapidly. When
business 1SNT so'good, money turns
over more slowly. That Is to say, we
actually need less money In bad
times than In good.
Most people think of It at the
l other way around. That Is because
In bad times money 1 dearer and
harder to get In other words. It
takes more of what we have in order
to get a given amount of money.
AS YOU have read often in inis
column, the wheat farmer who
borrowed a thousand dollars say five
years ago really borrowed a thousand
bushels of wheat because back In
those good days wheat wss selling
on the farm at around a dollar a
bushel.
If he has to pay back his loan
NOW, with wheat In t,he interior sell
ing on the farm at around 15 cents
a bushel, he has to pay back some
thing like SEVEN THOUSAND bush-
That comes hard.
WE HAVE good brains in this coun
try. Some day, perhaps, these
brains may be able tto figure out a

this afternoon from Salem ny tne
county clerk.
In accordance with the governors
orders. Olmscheid will assume the
office Monday, after taking the oath
of office and qualifying.
The order of suspension Is based
upon three points in the findings of
Judge W. M. Duncan:
That Schermerhorn was aligned
with a faction under strong suspicion
of ballot thefts;
That he was under the Influence
of the leaders;
And that, because of this, he failed
to. act with firmness and clerlty In
the maintenance of law and order,
particularly In reference to the bal
lot thefts
..Steps are under way for the turn
over of the cash In t.he sheriff's of
fice, up to the close of business to
morrow night, under the direction of
C. T. Haines, auditor of the county
books.
Attorney Frank J. Newman, repre
senting Schermerhorn. said this
morning that he had no announce
ment to make as to future plans or
legal action, if any. but that a de
cision would be reached later.
Olmrteld said today that his ap
pointment was a surprise, and that
he would make no plans or appoint
ments until after inducted Into of
fice. The naming of Olmscheid met with
general public approval, though a
few thought it should be somebody
else.'"" Ofmccd, who has taken no
active part in local politics, is
thoroughgoing, conservative and quiet
type. He has been adjutant of Med
ford post of the American Legion for
two years and Is associsted with C.
T. Tengwald In the Insurance and
realty business. Oetmsceld has lived
here four years.
Before naming Olmscheid. Governor
Meier made a quiet investigation of
his qualifications, temperament and
experience, and endeavored to name
a neutral man, as far as possible in
the turmoil.
Ousting F.xpecred.
The ousting of Schermerhorn was
not unexpected, and was forecast by
the evidence submitted at the hear

Chamber Plans Monster Pa
rade to View Scenic Won

Winter Sports Promised
Definite plans are being perfected
today by the Chamber of Commerce
for the staging of a monstrous cara
van to Crater Lake on Sunday, April
23. it was announced by President
W. 8. Bolger this morning. For the
past several weeks the Chamber of
Commerce has been bending Its ef
forts toward the early opening of
Crater Lake from this side and by
arrangements made with the state
commission a snow plow has been
working for practically a week open
ing up the highway from Union
Creek toward the park entrance. Latest
reports are that wo in had progressed
five miles by last Wednesday night
and It is confidently expected that
the complete road to the park en
trance will be opened some time next
week.
Earlier Opening
Chamber of Commerce officials are
happy over the outcome of these ef
forts, as It means that the entrance
on this side will be opened very
much earlier than has been Uhe ex
perience of the past few years. It Is
reported that the caravan would have
been arranged for Sunday, April 10.
but on account of the fact that lt
will be Easter Sunday the Chamber
of Commerce has decided to postpone !
the trip In order not to Interfere
with the religious services which
will be held In the city on that day.
While the only arrangements when
have so far been made have been to
officially name the date and -decide
to promote a caravan, it Is expected
that the vertous clubs of; the city
will be organized in order to promote
competitive winter sports, and many
ether novel and . entertaining ideas
will In all probability be Injected
into the program.
To Be Largest Caravan
No guess can be made as to the
number of cars w.hlch will partici
pate In the event, but the Chamber
of Commerce is determined to make
the caravan the largest which has
ever left Medford at any time. Many
splendid publicity features will be
worked out within a day or two and,
together with other phases of the car
avan, will be announced as soon as
arrangements are completed.
The opening of the road at this
early date will be of tremendous ben
efit to local merchants as the sum
mer resorts will be able to open up
earlier and business wlt.h Medford
merchants will naturally result. The
early opening of the road will also
have a tendency to promote earlier
tourist travel and agencies and oth
ers interested In the tourist Industry
will be advised that here will be no
need to delay a trip to Crater Lake
this year.
