PETERS FX ELD. England, Aug. 28.
I think America Is wis in de
termining on neutrality. II I were an
American I would support the meas
ure which have been before congreaa
with a view toward securing noupar
titanshlp ol America In European
quarrels.
I should. In fact, wish to ace Eng
land adopting a similar policy. I
think It will be possible for America
to remain neutral providing no muni
tions are supplied to either side and
other provisions of the recent neu
trality resolution are rigidly enforced.
Neutrality Imperative
At this stage of the world's hlatory.
when war Is likely to destroy civiliza
tion and all the European powers
that engage In It, neutrality appears
to me imperative to the Interests of
civilization.
I have hoped that the campaign
In Ethiopia may prove so burdensome
and unpopular as to cause the down
fall of Mussolini which would prove
the beginning of a better stage of af
fairs In Europe whereaa the probable
effect of a war against fascism Will
spread fascism to countries now free
from It or alternately collapse all or
derly government.
On these grounds I hold that the
British government Is wise n moving
slowly, since to my mind yie most
Important thing Is to avoid a general
war.
Italy Has No Case
On one hand, I feel, of course, that
Italy's behavior Is totally Indefensible.
The Italian cause has only demerits.
A esse doesn't exist.
On the othere, I don't think it will
be possible to atop Italy except
through threat, perhaps even the ac
tuahty of war.
If there were war on this issue It
would very likely become a general
war. I do not think Ethiopia la suf
ficiently Important to Justify the
risk of such an appalling catastrophe.
It is said we should at all costs up
hold the covenants of the league, but
since Germany and Japan left the
league, it has become merely one
group of powers In the balance of
power.
War in behalf of the league, there
fore. Is hardly distinguishable from
the old balance of power war.

PORT ORFORD, Aug. 28. (SpL)
"The recovery from economic doldrums
and the return of prosperous condi
tions must depend in large part on
Initiative of private Industries."
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
This is part of the text of a con
gratulatory message from the presi
dent to Gilbert E. Gable of the Port
Orford Dock and Terminal corpora
tion here. In connection with the
opening of the new lakwater dock
and the only natural deep water har
bor In a thousand, miles of the west
coast.
The combined projects of six cor.
poratlons. opening at Port Oxford un
der Mr. Gable, are said to constitute
the largest private projects of new
development in the United States at
the present time. "In fact." said Mr.
Gable, "It Is probbably the only one,
as moat of the money now being
spent privately in America Is being
spent for rehabilitation, repairs or
extensions to existing plants."
An elaborate program on Septem
ber 2 will mark Inauguration of the
new harbor, beginning with the for
mal address of Governor Charles H.
Martin and the ceremonies of offi
cially opening the harbor at 10 a. m.
through a program of contests and
races in the early afternoon, and a
formal reception to the governor at
the administration building at 4 p. m.
which will be open to the public.
At 8 p. m., under the direction of
Mrs. Gilbert E. Gable, who has had
wide experience in directing pageants.
a wedding will be celebrated at the
base of the new dock as a means of
solemnlng the union of the sea and
the land, under the title "The Wed
ding of Neptune and Daphne."
Neptune will approach from the sea
on an elaborately decorated fishing
ship, "The Sunset," while on shore
Daphne repulses the advances of
Apollo and is changed by Zeus Into a
i laurel tree the laurel, of course. Is
I first cousin to the Oregon myrtle;
and as Daphne becomes the Goddess
of Earth, Neptune approaches by way
of the new dock and pays ardent
court, whereupon, a wedding cere
mony Is held, with a portentious ell
max. and with the final words, "What
man hath thust Joined together, we
pray that God may not put asunder."
There will be 2000 guests present,
acceptances of Invitations having
been received from Rufus C. Holman,
state treasurer; Ernest Bnell, secre
tary of state; Corporation Commis
sioner Charles H. Carey: Brigadier

Property Sales Increasing,

Mortgage Money Waiting
Change In the whole real estate
situation has begun to translate Itself
over the country generally. Into high
er prices, according to the twenty
fifth semi-annual survey of the real
estate market made by the National
Association of Real Estate Boards and
read and discussed at the last meet
ing of the Medford Realty Board. Lo
cal realtors attending the meeting
were reported as much encouraged
over the betterment In conditions
here.
The national survey, drawn from
confidential statements of member
real estate boards In 251 cities gave
the following information:
Market activity Increased In 18 per
cent of all cities reporting and prices
received now higher than a year ago
in 81 per cent of cities. Not at any
time since activity-trend and price
trend tables have been compiled by
the association has so high a propor- j
tlon of cities shown an up trend.
Rents for single-family dwellings
are going up In 71 per cent of cities. i
They have reached In metropolitan
centers approximately 75.9 per cent of j
the 1928 level.
Apartment rent movement la up
ward in 85 per cent of cities. These
rates are still at 52 5 per cent of the
1926 level.
There is a striking change in de
gree to which mortgage loan are
available for new home building. Real
estate boards In 81 per cent of the
cities state It Is now actually pos
sible to obtain such loans In their
communities.
Substantial advance Is shown in

The most striking chnn hr., r
the survev is in th Hmm hiu
mortgage loans are now obtainable
iw mw nome omiaing. of the cities
reporting through thir ri
boards. 81 per cent state that It Is
now possible, in actual practice, to
ooiAin such loans In their com
munity. This la against only 51 per
cent so reporting six months ago.
Of the nine sections In the United
States reporting, the Pacific section
ranked second high with 39 per cent
of the replies stating home construc
tion loans now available.
Larger Cities Improving
Larger cities show great advance
ment. Not a single city over 200,000
population reports any remaining
over supply of single family dwell
ings. More than 70 per cent of these
Cities show shortiLB- iPvn w
200.000 population reports mortgage
loan now actually obtainable for
new home building. Every city of over
500,000 population reports capital
seeking real estate investment, and
86 per cent report falling Interest
rates.
For the first time In years, real es
tate boards in considerable number
are reporting a more active sub-division
market.

. . . and the best way to get a more
pleasing flavor and a better taste in
a cigarette is by welding together the
different types of tobacco . . .
That is just what wc do In making
Chesterfield Cigarettes the three
types of mild ripe home-grown to
baccos, that is tobaccos grown in this
country, arc welded together. Then
they are welded with aromaticTurkish.
When these tobaccos arc welded
together you get a combined flavor
which is entirely different from any
one type of tobacco.
It is this welding of the right
amounts of the right kind of tobac
cos that makes Chesterfield a milder
and better-tasting cigarette.
