Temperature: IilLJIFJillllHEHilIPlli Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS. THE FHENCH give out a atatement to the effect that the world eco nomic conference In London will be a failure unless currency stabilisation la accomplished. The United States doesn't want cur rency stabilization NOW. So. you see, If the conference falls, it will all be the fault of the wicked Americans. The blame Just has to be put on America. THE FRENCH want stabilization now. because they don't want the United States to obtain the advan tages In world trade that follow the cheaper dollar. So they are trying to force thia country Into doing what they want. IP THIS WRITER were running things, which he I8NX he would say to Prance and the other natlona assembled at the conference: . "In the past, we have played the Lady Bountiful at all these confer' ences, giving everything and recelv- Ing nothing. We're THROUGH. Thla time, we're going to get what we want or we're going home." How do you feel about ltf WHEAT breaks sharply on the Chi cago market last week, but RE COVERED, and is atlll above the dol lar mark. Why? Well, read this paragraph from an Associated Press dispatch In Wednesday's papers: "Relentless heat continuea to torture Central Statea farmera whose fields have been de teriorating steadily, due to the scorch ing sun and lack of rainfall." Drouth cuts the supply. With sup ply DOWN, prices go up. THE GOVERNMENT, through the farm relief bill, Is planning to limit production by law. Nature takes a hand and limits production by means of the weather. Limitation of production by law MAT work. Limitation by nature's method HAS to work. Everybody who has gone through a drouth knowa that. THE PITT of ltis that sectional drouths lay the burden on some areas and confer the benefits on others. Nature's methods are effec tive, but they are sometimes harsh. 4 HOW WILL the government limit production, say of wheat, by law? Well, here'a the way It works: As you have read In the panera, a "pro cessing" tax of 30 cents a bushel la to be levied on wheat the tsx to be paid by the processors; that la to say, the millera. It Is expected that this tax will raise something like 130 mil lion dollars the first year. The sum so raised will be used to pay benefits to wheat growers who sign contracts promising acreage ductlon In 1934 and 1835. These growers, you see. will be paid to keep their land OUT OP PRODUC TION. THIS is. the reasoning: i If farmera find It more profitable to keep their land out of production, they will do so, thus reducing the screage planted to crops. In this wsy, it Is hoped to head of! Ihe natural Inclination to produce more as the price goes up. WHETHER the plan works or not depends entirely on Mother Na ture. If weather conditions are normal, with production per acre average, the attempted reduction will materialize. If weather conditions are bad. with production per acre below normal, the reduclon will more than materialize. But If weather conditions are GOOD, with production per acre ABOVE average, the reduction won't materialize. You can't get around nature. BFiRriimiNniszr' liUI lyiilUUU II l REYKVAM. Iceland.

(Associated Press Photo) Arguments on the motion of Earl H. Fehl. county Judge, charged with ballot theft for a change of venue, will be made Thursday morning. They were postponed from this morn ing, in order to give the state time to prepare counter-affidavits to the J allegations of Fehl, that he cannot 1 secure a fair and Impartial trial here. Fehl In his plea contends that the southern Oregon press has created a prejudice against him, and have made personsl attacks upon his honor and integrity." He submits numerous articles, Including the edi torials In the two dallies demanding that Fehl and Schermerhorn resign, "In Justice to themselves," after they were linked with the ballot thefts, and charged with being the "bene ficiaries" of the crime. It la further argued that Fehl's signing last summer of the Judge Norton recall petition, has created a prejudice against him. among Nor ton's "friends and adherenta", and then declares he Is willing to be tried either before Judge Norton or Judge Sklpworth," but not In this county. The venue plea la based chieny upon the newspaper articles and edi torials dealing with the ballot theft, and Us aftermath the murder of Constable George B, Prescott. The Oregon state supreme court ruled that newspaper articles or edi torials are now grounds for granting a change of venue, laying down the rules in the Dr. R. M. Brumfleld murder case at Roseburg. Brumfleld In hla plea claimed that the Douglas county press had created a prejudice against him. Jamee MFerren, snout thirty.
