Trading.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 19. The new
dealers amlle and look th. other
way when you ask why Greece sud
denly changed her mind about pro
tecting Samuel Insult. They have
a reason to.
They tried every open diplomatic
means of making the Greeks release
the dethroned utility king, with no
success whatever. They sent special
4 representatives to plead with ttie
Greek courts. They denounced the
extradition treaty with Greece In one
of the sharpest notes that ever went
out of the state department. All
. Greece did was to shrug Its shoulders
and pat Insult on the back.
Th. tactlca that later brought re
sults were more subtle. It la clesr
that you can chalk the matter up
as another victory for our new gen
eral International policy of Yankee
trading.
Sllbletlei.
It seems that American Minister
Mac Veagh at Athens was Instructed
from Washington to bring a little
informal economic pressure to bear.
He did nothing official. But he let
the Greek government know In devl-
ous ways that If It wanted Insult It
would have to peddle its onves ana
olive oil somewhere else than the
United States.
That Is a language the Greeks un
derstand. Their exports to US
amount to lees insa ten numvn uvi-
lara annually In current bad ex
change times, but ten million Is Im
portant to them.
Simultaneously the Greek minis
ter here was seen In state depart
ment corridors seeking a good quo
ta for Greek wines. He noted that
he was unable to get any consider
ation. If he was not told outright,
he was at least led to to believe
j that the Insult case had a bearing
' on wines.
Within three days after the tem
" " porary wine quota list was given out
Greece announced its decision to re
linquish Insult.
Skipper,
Just call Mr. Roosevelt "skipper".
All the Inner circles do In private.
They hit on that accurate person
al title because of Mr. Roosevelt's
manner of Issuing codes. He acts
aa If his governmental associates
were the friendly members of the
erew of his yacht, and they gener
ally respect him In the ssme way.
Tou may recall that Mr. Hoover's
Inner associates formerly called him
"The Chief."
Quletutde.
There will be fewer public speech
es from General Johnson .hereafter,
and fewer national radio appear
ances. That much seems to have been
decided between Johnson and ths
White House, but the resson la not
clear. Probably the time for speech
making has passed. The general has
plenty else to do.
It Is generally understood Inside
that anyone who wants ths general
to make a speee.'fc. now should first
get approval from the White House.
Verbiage.
Johnson's literary secrets were ex
posed In that consumers council
meeting recently at the White House.
The exposing done by his consumer
aide, Mary Ramsey.
She told the assemblsge that
when the general was at West Point
he wrote short stories. He turned
out a lot of them and they were
good enough to make him believe
he might have a future In the short
story field.
But the point she msde was that
the picturesque lsnguage used by
the general In the NRA campaign
Is taken from these old stories. They
reeked with "neanderthalers," "chls
elers" and crack downs."
Fain Pas.
Agriculture Secretary Wallace step
ped on the toes of consumer work
era at that White House conference.
He thought the offorts of the gov
ernment so far In that respect had
not been effective and said so. He
described the work as mostly o( the
club-study-group type.
Wallace must have seen the looks
on the faces of the club women there
assembled, because .he hsstened to
add: 'But that la all to the good.
It's all to the good."
Nonpnrtlsanshlp.
Director Douglas of the consumer
council movement said he would
soon have 3100 local councils creat
ed on a atrlctly non-political, non
partisan basis.
One of the local council women
nudged her neighbor and whispered:
"It lnt true; they only appoint
Democrats."
If Dr. Douglas had hesrd her ths
meeting mifcht have become more
lively. He Is sincerely trying to keep
politics out of his outfit. You will
know the answer shortly when names
of your local councilors are announced.

New Storm Warnings.
New storm warnings were broken
out by the Seattle weather bureau In
gales of wind, rain and sleet that

Communication Cut.
Some coast cities and towns re

City Liquor Ordinances
Needed While State Is
Organizing New Set-Up
EUGENE, Deo. 19. (AP) Adoption
of a uniform liquor ordinance by all
cltiea of the state for the control of
liquor ealea during the Interim in
which the state machinery for dis
pensing liquor is being set up prob
ably will be recommended by the
state liquor control commission in
Portland Wednesday.
This was announced today by Geo.
H. McMorran, chairman of the com
mission, who left Eugene this after
noon for Portland.
Word from A. J. Tourtelotte, Port
land accountant who was commis
sioned to go to Vancouver to study
the Canadian system, indicated that
It would be Impossible for the com
mission to set up an adequate system
within the short period of 30 days as
was at first considered by the com
mission, McMorran said.
In order to give citizens of Oregon
an opportunity to buy liquor legally
during the Interim, the commission
expects to ask cities to pass an ordi
nance covering the situation.
"It is likely that city attorneys from
strategic sections of the state will be
asked to cooperate in framing a uni
form ordinance that can be adopted
by all cities of the etate," McMorran
said. He said he did not know whe

meet with the commission or to draw
up an ordinance and then submit It
to the commissioners.
McMorran believes It would be fool
ish to sacrifice thoroughness in build
ing the system to speed in presenting
state liquor to the public. Mean
while, he realizes, the people will de
mand liquor and that if they cannot
buy it legally they will patronize the
bootlegger, something the commis-
mission emphatically docs not want
to happen.
It Is believed that cities could
adopt a uniform ordinance covering
the sale of liquors till such time as
the state stores could be opened.
While Mr. McMorran made no sugges
tions for such an ordinance, he point
ed out that It must conform with the
Knox law and be subject to approval
of the commission.
At the commission meeting In Port
land tomorrow Mr. Tourtelotte will
report on his investigation In Canada
and the commission with its attorney
will make a thorough study of the
new liquor law.
Asked regarding the appointment of
a state administrator McMorran de
clared that so far the commission had
no one In mind for the post and he
doubted if the appointment would be
made for some time yet.

When Congress Convenes
Loan Power Near End
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19. (AP) An
extension of the lending powers of
the reconstruction finance corpora
tion for at least another year and
a bolstering of Its depleted coffers
with more millions will be asked of
this session of congress by the ad
ministration. Jesse Jones, chairman of the cor
poration, .held the view today that
as much aa an additional billion dol
lars In lending power should be given
his gigantic corporation.
The lending authority of the RFC
expires next month. The corpora
tion Is now engaged in carrying on
the gold purchases in the administra
tion's new monetary policy and for
this reason alone It was considered
virtually certain that President
President Roosevelt will ask its con
tinuation, Jones also estimates the corpora
tion could use about 500.000,000 In
Its Job of opening closed banks and
re-enforcing the capital structure of
other banking Institutions.
The RFC chairman satd the effort
to thaw frozen bank, deposits al
ready had accounted for loans of
around 1540,000,000 for the purpose
of making payments to depositors.
Only yesterday the Quardlan Nation
al Bank of Commerce of Detroit re
ceived a. $8,000,000 loan.
Meanwhile, the corpratlon today
continued Us study of the possibili
ties of making loans direct to In
dustry. The previously arranged NRA
loan plan, under which business men
needing money would form mort
gage companies In their own com
munities In order to circumvent the
present ban against direct loans, fcss
not proved successful. Jones indl
cated congress might be asked to
change the basic law to allow loans

18. You sure got to give it to
this administration for trying
to do Bomcthing for tho down
nnd out. Over in Phoenix, Ari
zona, the other day I run into
something that I had not read
about, but I understand there
is quite a few in Southwestern
Htntcs.
It's called a government
transient camp. I went out to
see 'cm. There was about 700
men and boya (lots of 'era very
young) and they kept 'cm thera
and fed 'cm and gave 'em
clothes. They receive no money,
but good food, good cots and
blankets. AU had to work. Lota
of 'cm were making wooden
toys for the children in Phoenix
for Christmas. A taxpayer

spent if it is for food
