Committee's Pamphlet
WASHINGTON, Dec. . AV-The
administration U attempting to cre
ate a "dictatorship" In time of "pro
found peace," the republican national
committee In lte second pamphlet In
a month today said the President and
Jils cohorts are replying to critics
within their own party with nothing
but "epithets."
"It is the "forgotten man' of 1332
Rooseveltlan oratory who complains
that he atlU Is In that category." it
said.
The pamphlet's cover bore no title,
but carried In bold black type the
following "epithets" from recent ut
terances of the President, Hugh 8.
Johnson, Speaker Balney, and Donald
B. Blchberg, NBA counsel: "Tories,"
"chlselers," "dead cats." "witch doc
tors," "bank wreckers," "traitors."
Says Support Given
After quoting Andrew Jackson and
Theodore Boosevelt on the right to
criticise official acts, the publication
said: "No administration In the his
tory of the United States, having a
task to perform, has been given as
unanimous support by the American
people as the Boosevelt administra
tion." Declaring the administration's re
quests had been granted by congress
fully and without complaint, the
pamphlet asserted Mr. Roosevelt had
been entrusted with more power
'than was given Lincoln to save the
union or Wilson to wage the World
war."
"A month or six weeks ?go." It
said, "there began to be criticism of
the policies of the administration. It
was pointed out the columns of the
public press that the President's re
covery program was not working, be
cause It was not workable: that many
of the policies ran contrary to funda
mental economic laws, sound business
practices, plain common sense and
particularly to the spirit of Ameri
can institutions and the convictions
and traditions of the American peo
ple. Criticism From Own Party
"That criticism did not originate
with partisan opponents of the Presi
dent. It came from outstanding mem
bers of the democratic party. It found
virile expression in the editorial col
umns of staunch democratic news
papers.' The republican committee contend
ing the public objects to receiving
orders from "some bureaucratic top
sergeant" for "all private enterprise"
to do "squad right" and "squad left."
Simultaneous with this second com
mittee attack upon the administra
tion. Senator Pess of Ohio, assistant
republican leader of the senate, told
newspapermen the Boosevelt program
could not succeed because It was
based entirely on relief "at the ex
pense of permanent recovery."
He complained that the securities
act, the NBA and other administra
tion measures were holding up devel
opment an8 reemployment In durable
or "key" industries whew the Jobless
number nearly 6.000.000 compared
with only about 540.000 in the con
sumptive goods trades.
At the close of this year's En
deavor convention at phoenix, reso
lutions were adopted thanking all
who helped to make the conference
a success, as follows:
"Be It resolved, that we, the Chris
tian Endeavorers of Crater Lake Un

FOR 23 YEARS ON
Meteorological notes for ' November,
compiled by W. J. Hutchison, local
meteorologist, show the month was
one of the driest Novembers to be
experienced In the Medford area dur
ing the past 23 years. Only on one
occasion In that period has the short
age of moisture been more pronounc
ed. In November, 1929, the total
monthly precipitation was 0.02 inches;
this year a total of 0.03 Inches fell.
Measurable amounts of rainfall
were recorded only on the 1st' and
3rd. thereafter the balance of the
month was practically without mois
ture except for a few very light show
era which were recorded as traces. A
trace of snow fell on the 28th. Sea
sonal rainfall at the close of Novem
ber totaled 1 47 inches, showing a
deficiency of 2.87 Inches.
Settled fall weather following the
light rains on the first three days
continued, with clear or partly cloudy
skies, occasional morning valley toga
and below freezing minimum temper
atures to the 18th. Unsettled cloudy
conditions with a few extremely light
rains prevailed throughout the re
maining portion of November. Morn
ing fogs were frequent during this
closing period.
Temperatures for the most part
were seasonable, averaging close to
normal except on the 29th and 30th
when the lowest minimum of the
month was recorded at. 18 degrees.
The highest maximum registered 65
degrees on the 5th. In comparing
these extremes of temperature for No
vember with the past 23-year record,
absolute temperatures for the period
show a maximum of 80 degrees and
a minimum of -18 degrees.
Exceptionally dry weather prevail
ing during the month resulted in
considerable delay to seasonal farm
ing and orchard field activities. Plow
ing seeding, due to the lack of soil
moisture. Is reported as having pro
gressed most unsatisfactorily. Dense
morning valley fogs disrupted much
air traffic. However, In the majority
of cases, these fogs rapidly dissipated
shortly after the noon hour and air
craft schedules could be resumed
without serious delays.

SEMI-SCALD FOR

Several large turkey farms In Yakl-:

with an apparent advantage over the
"dry pick" method. R. D. Mitchell of
Sunnyslde, Wash., who was the first
to Install the equipment in 1931, has
used It for approximately 1800 tur
keys a year for the past two years, !
and Is using it again this year. I
The advantages claimed of a semi-1
scald method are that the pin feath
ers are more easily removed, the yel
low color la brought to the akin, and
the birds are plumped to give a more
finished appearance. In using the
semi-scald system of dressing turkeys.
the bird is first stuck and rough pick
ed In the usual manner. Each bird Is
then Immersed In the semi-scalder
with a water temperature of exactly
128 degrees Fahrenheit, for a period
ol 30 seconds. The temperature of the
water and time for Immersing each
bird Is very Important, as slight vari
ations In temperature or time will
result in loosening the skin of the
bird, with a resultant decrease In
market value.
After being Immersed for 30 sec
onds the bird Is ready to be pinned.
The pin feathers are more easily re
moved and the birds have a cleaner
appearance. It also Is noted that
the warmth of the water brings out
the yellow pigment of the skin and
the bird will have a light yellow color
that adds materially to Its appear
ance. After completing the pinning
the turkey Is again dipped in the
scalder two or three times to "plump"
it. The bird should be then cooled
Immediately, the feet washed, the
hesd wrapped, and hung up.
The equipment xiscd by Mr. Mitch
ell consists of a 50-gallon oil barrel,
partially filled with water. The water
ts heated by electric heating elements
placed near the bottom of the barrel,
and the water temperature controlled
to exactly 128 degrees by an accurate
electric thermostat. The equipment is
adapted for local metal shop con
struction and is inexpensive to con
struct. The power consumption Is
quite low. making it a practical op
erating Installation.
Although this equipment has been
used rather extensively in Washing
ton, there are no known farms in
Oregon using this method of dressing
turkeys. The Oregon State Agricul
ural college intends to investigate it
thoroughly and probably dress a por
tion of the turkeys at the Hermiston
branch experiment station this year
to determine the practicability and
economics of this equipment for Ore

Money Battles That Made History
No. 3 'Hard Money' Jackson Versus the U. S. Bank
Kni TOR'S NOTE: This la the
third or a series of four stories
describing epochal bat I les over
America's money.
By CARL C. CRANMER
WASHINGTON (AP) The de
mand for more currency had a great
deal to do with the money battles of
Andrew Jackson, whose contest with
Nicholas Blddle and the second Unit
ed States bank which he headed is
historic.
His fight would be comparable to
day to a battle royal with "Wall
Street." His "brain trust" then was
known as the "kitchen cabinet, '
composed mainly of Journalists and
personal advisers who originated
many of the tricks of the trade In
politics as practiced today.
A "Hard Money" Mun
Jackson prided himself upon being
a "hard money" man. and on hla
tours about the country made a show
of the silver, rather than paper, with
which he paid his accounts. However
the "conservatives" were allied
against him.
But Jackson was convinced the
bank was meddling in politics, and
moreover that It was unsound for
government deposits.
"I tell you. sir. she' broke . . . the
bank's broke and Blddle knows It," he
once exclaimed.
Seeds of the revolt against the bank
lay In credit expansion during the
war of 1812 and the inflationary
effect of the government's easy credit
policy toward selling public lands In
the rapidly growing west.
State Banks Issues Copious
State banks. Issuing bank notes

helped to supply the need for credit
and currency, Calhoun once charging
them with issuing tl70.000.000 in
bank notes based on only $15,000,000
In specie In their vaults.
The demand for paper money was
accelerated, too. because the Mint act
of 1792 undervalued gold at the ratio
of 15 to 1 and little of it was minted.
Silver disappeared aa fast as It was
minted because the new dollars were
In demand for trade with the Spanish
possessions.
One of the first results of the char
tering of the second bank In 1816 had
been to force the state banks to con
tract their njte issues and curtail
their loans to get on a specie basis.
The bank also attempted to control
the note issue of the state banks.
These policies nearly precipitated a.
crash In 1810.
Old Hostility Persisted
The second bank inherited some
hostility left by the first bank which
had been abolished in 1811.
But most of Jackson's cabinet was
against his plan of withdrawing gov,
eminent deposits to the "pet," or
state, banks. He changed his secre
tary of the treasury three time be

Tne gaunt old general, still suffer

and from general debility aa a result

The bank difficulties, and the
"specie circular" of 183G. coupled
with government financial transac
tions, led to the panic of 1837. The
"specie circular" represented Jack,
son's "hard money' 'policy, because
it required the payments for public
lands to be made in specie, and woe
therefore a drastic curtailment of
credit In the west.

HOP SEED GROWS
FASTER BENEATH
ARTIFICIAL LIGHT
WASHINGTON. Dec. 6. (AP) How
state and federal plant breeders of
corvams. Ore., sped up hop maturity
by the use of artificial light and
darkness was described today In an
agriculture department report. The
department said by the aid of newer
methods the breeders grew hops from
seed to fruiting maturity in three
years, whereas in the past it usually
has taken about five years.
In searching for defenses against
the mildew disease whloh In 1030 at
tacked hop vines In Washington and
Oregon, the breeders discovered that
seeds differ widely in behavior, tho
report said, some germinating imme
diately where temperature and mois
ture are favorable while other nat
urally He dormant for a period.
Some seeds that ripen In the fall
will not sprout until spring, the
breeders learned, but they also discov
ered -that an artificial winter may
overcome this dormancy.
Another discovery was that plants
rospond to Illumination and tho
length of day. Some plants can be
forced to flower early by supplement
ing the sun with artificial light, tho
report explained. hlle others will not
flower unless the day Is shortened.
Such plants can be kept growing
without flowering if tho natural
shortening of the day Is counteracted
by electric lighting.
The report said that no new varie
ties have been released yet for com
mercial planting, but predicted far
reaching results by use of the arti
ficial wintering and summering.
