mand instead of. glutting the mar
kets with goodB, and on the con
trary, farmers have continued to pro
duce In excess ol effective demand
for same, thereby being forced to sell
at a loss and inevitably being forced
Into bankruptcy, we believe that a
carefully planned adjustment of farm
production is the only system that
will give to agriculture on equality
with Industry, and
See Foes or AAA.
"Whereas, powerful organized
groups are attempting to destroy the
agricultural adjustment administra
tion, and
"Whereas, Mr. Wallace, the secre
tary of agriculture, and his advisors
have demonstrated their clear think
ing and courageous Interest In be
half of general agriculture, and
"Whereas, the agricultural adjust
ment administration has lifted the
producers from a state of bankruptcy
into one of hope, and
"Whereas, the processing tax and
benefit payment are the first ef
fective semblance of a protective
tariff for the growers, and
"Therefore, be it resolved by the
delegates assembled that we respect
fully request our congressmen and
senators to give their unqualified
support to the continuation of the
agricultural adjustment act, includ
ing the processing tax and the
amendments to the act now pending
before congress, and '
"Be It further resolved, that we
endorse the legislation enacted by
the national congress and the sym
pathetic administration thereof in
restoring the agricultural credit of
the nation."
There were grins of satisfaction
and much back-slapping among the
farm "marchers" as they reviewed
yesterday's program. They said their
demonstration in favor of the agri
cultural program and against the
critics who are seeking to alter it
was a success.
Enthused by F. R.
The program drove to a climax in
the later afternoon when the 4000
men stood before the south portico
of the White House, looked up at
the president and whooped their -enthusiasm
as he told them the farm
policies would continue.
The attire of the crowd below him
was a study in contrasts. Some
bronzed, lean men hitched the sus
penders to their overalls and chewed
tobacco; some wore their Sunday
best, looking as if It Just came out
of the mail order bundle; others
wore well-cut business suits. The
applause ranged from handclaps to
sounds reminiscent of hog-calllng.
Introduced by Secretary Wallace
as the "Heart of America,' the presi
dent lost no time In lashing at
critics.
"The crocodile tears shed by the
professional mourners of an old and
obsolete order over the slaughter of
little pigs and other measures to
reduce surplus agricultural Inven
tories deceive very few thinking
people and least of all the farmers
themselves." he said.
"It is high time for us to repeat
on every occasion," he said, "that
we have not wastefully destroyed food
in any form.'
At one point a farmer injected
Into the proceedings a reference to
one of the administration's bitterest
foes Gov. Talmadge of Georgia.
- President Roosevelt was saying
that among the AAA critics were a
"few leading citizens," who have
gone astray ."
A farmer broke in to shout:
"We have one down our way,
south Georgia."
"I was about to say from igno
ranee," the president resumed.
Later, in Atlanta, Governor Tal
madge commented tersely after hear
ing that the president had struck at
the high and mighty with special
axe to grind."
"He must have been talking about
Tug well and Wallace," Talmadge
said.
Say "March" Inspired.
While the farmers declared their
"march on Washington" was spon'
taneous and AAA officials asserted
they had nothing to do with the
movement. Senator Dickinson (R,
Iowa said it was "inspired" from
the capital.
"In my Judgment." he said, "the
march on the capital was inspired
from Washington. They are trying to
crest the impression that the ad
ministration farm program Is popu
lar, when every lota of evidence 1
have is to the contrary."
PORTLAND, Ore., May 15. (AP)
Butter torage operations were in
creasing rapidly within the local ter
ritory and even In California the In
put remained of liberal volume.
Rather high prices now quoted for
butter in comparison with the nor
mal for storage operations has turned
many operators from the buying field,
but there was suggestion of general
participation in the market for this
purpose within the next few days.
There was suggestion that buying
for storage will reach Its maximum
for the season within a short time.
Trading In the egg market was firm
but prices were continued at a lower
level than shown In any of the lead
ing markets along the Pacific slope.
There was no change for the day.
Strong prices were showing for live
chickens in the local trade. They
were being maintained at the recent
high mark for all offerings with ev
erything In the line rather eagerly
sought.

county Judge, to evade garnishment.
Counsel for Fehl objected to this
line of questioning, but were orer
ruled by the court.
Fehl was a calm and evasive wlt
nesa. but frequently replied spirited
ly. To most of the pointed questions
he resorted to a general denial, or
qualified them with his own version.
Docximentary evidence, and letters
Fehl had written since Incarceration
In state prison, formed the basis of
the cross-examination for the moat
part. In one epistle to Edward C.
Kelly, Fehl wrote:
Kelly M Friend
'Your father Is tha best friend I
ever had' . . .
"You did not object to my fee
then?" queried Attorney Kelly.
"I was In the penitentiary and In
no position to object to anything,"
was the quick retort of Fehl.
At another Juncture, the witness
declared :
"I was Instrumental In the election
of your son to the legislature. He
appeared with me at many of my
meetings and ran on my platform.'
"There can be no doubt of that."
replied Attorney Kelly, a tinge of
sarcasm In his voice.
Fehl was indefinite regarding an
assignment of 150Q in rental money
to his counsel In the original Nled
ermeycr. Inc., suit, but admitted the
transaction when confronted with the
document Itself. He testified, "It was
to cover up and keep going."
Says Counsel Volunteered
"The Bar association appointed a
committee to defend me In the five
criminal libel suits," Fehl declared.
'I supported JudRe Norton In his
campaign and was responsible for his
election. After that there was a mut
ual agreement between me and the
lawyers and they were friendly to
me."
Fehl declared his counsel In the
criminal libel trials, "was volunteer
help," and added: "I must say they
did a good Job. They acquitted me
on two counts. The rest were dis
missed." Partners Forgotten
In response to allegations, that
Attorney Kelly owned shares In Fehl's
weekly paper, The Pacific Record
Herald, and which the attorney de
nied, Fehl answered, "I can't remem
ber. I wouldn't say yes, and I would
not say no." He did assert that At
torney Qeorge M. Roberts was a
shareholder. Attorney Roberts de
clared In court, "If I am, I don't
know It."
The witness declared the chief
shareholders In the Pacific Record
Herald were himself and Attorney F.
J. Newman, "but I can t recall all
of them,'
At the close of the morning ses
sion. Attorney Kelly was qxiestioning
Fehl on the "value" of property, he
had transferred to his mother-in-law.
The witness admitted the transfer to
her of the Pacific Record-Herald
building for a IftOOO Judgment, and
fixed its worth at aia.000. a letter
was Introduced, written by Fehl In
which he fixed the value at 115.000.
Admits Helm roth Loan
Fehl testified, under cross-examination,
that he and his wife had bor
rowed money from Ted Helmroth and
wife to purchase the Pacific Record
Herald building at a sheriff 'a tax
sate. The sum borrowed from Jesse
Thomas of Ashland, for the same
purpose, "was arranged by Tom
Brecheen. I had nothing to do with
it. All arrangements were made when
I went to see Mr. Thomas." (Breeh-.
een served a prison term for ballot
theft and was active In the Banks
Fehl turmoil).
The cross-examination of Fehl Is
expected to take the remainder of
today and may extend Into tomorrow.
Following the cross-examination by
Attorney Kelly, who claims 13000 for
attorney fees and legal services ren
dered in many court actions, Attor
neys Enright and Attorney Nellson,
will Interrogate the witness on be
half of Helmroth and Thomas, and
Jackson county claims.
The testimony In the case is high
ly Involved and devious, and covers
a long period of time.

Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn
If you are troubled with corns or
callouses, do not run the risk otf
blood poison by perliyt them. Statla-
J tics ehow that many infections haT
occurred irom mis eeminiy mno
cent practice of paring corns.
Simply g-Fo your druggist and get
a few cent worth of Ice-Mint, rub a
little on any painful corn or callous.
Immediately the pfltn will dlssppear
and in a short time the corn or cal
lous will loosen and lift off easily
with the fiaers root and all leav
ing the surrounding skin In a heal
thy normal condition.
This, together with the fact that
Ice-Mint overcomes suoh affections
as sore, tired, aching, puffed or
burning feet and makes them cool,
eiy and comforta-ble. Is probably re
sponsible for the hearty endorse
ment given It by drucglsts.
To rid one's feet of every hard
corn, soft corn, corn between the
toes or painful callouses in such ft
pleiuunt and safe way, makes It seem
the height of folly for anyone to pare
a corn and people are warned to stop
It.

base (123 inches between the springs)
it exceeds all standards for its size as
to roominess and riding comfort. With

it exceeds standards of performance
at its price yet its 85 horsepower
engine runs more thriftily than ever
It's a car that you ought to try. Not
just because it is setting sales records
