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.

1 LONDON, July ft (AP) The world
economlo conference will virtually be
wound up tomorrow, according to
highest authorities, barring some
eleventh hour development.
The steering committee of the con
ference meets tomorrow to consider a
proposal for adjournment, or recess,
made by Hendry Colljn. Dutch
prime minister, and leader of a gold
bloc country.
Even the American delegation to
night agreed that "recess" was de
sirable. While expectations for dispersion
of the great world conclave were be
coming more certain. Cordell Hull,
secretary of state, prepared a state
ment explaining the American posi
tion and showed It to Ramsay Mac
Donald, chairman of the conference.
It was understood In authoritative
American quarters that the state
ment Included a suggestion from
President Roosevelt for the Institu
tion of an International dollar as a
measurement for currency during the
period of fluctuations in foreign ex
changes. The plan which leaders are now
considering provides that some of
the committees now In operation
should continue their work while the
assembly as a whole takes an Indef
inite recess.

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. Ash
Isnd butcher, was found in . a pool
of blood at the Kaah-Does-H meat
market in Ashland this morning, fol
lowing his attempt to commit suicide
by cutting hla throat with a meat
cleaver. A report from Ashland this
afternoon states that McFerren will
probably recover.
The butcher was found In the shop
about 6:30 o'clock by Mrs. Goldie

The plea of Suspended Sheriff Gor
don p. Schermerhorn, now on trial j
for ballot theft, that the Jury list
to decide hia fate, be selected other
than by methods provided by Ore
gon law. was denied in a ruling
handed down Monday afternoon by
Circuit Judge Georae L. Sklpworth.
Schermerhorn, through his attor
ney, Frank J. Newman, in the motion
nlleged that Sheriff Olmscheld holds
tho office Illegally and without

ence of the "Committee of 100." and
proposea that the venire be selected
by taking the seventh and eleventh
names from the tax rolls, alphabeti
cally, or by picking two persons from
each of the 68 precinct of .the
county.
The court held there was no way
to select the Jurors, save in the man
ner prescribed by Oregon law.
A list of sixty names wn drawn by
Sheriff Olmscheld. and 33 of this
number were eliminated, either by
death, departure, age, sickness, or ex
emptions. The first name drawn was Mary E.

of what they are driving at.
Each nation has its own plan
and the minute it's turned
down by the others, why you
jot another anarchist on your
hands. Some nation suggested
they adjourn but the other
won't do it, for it wasn't orig
inally their proposal.
If they do adjourn till Janu
ary we ought to just leave our
troop over there. It would be
cheaper than bringing 'em
home and then sending 'em
back. Why not have s perma
nent commission appointed by
the year and then just go from
one to another of the confer
ences! Get men that love to
travel and don't take interna
tional affair too serious. Just
go for the trip and the laughs.
I'll consider heading that dele
gation. Youra,
