OCTOBER 2. 1933. pjjsjsjsssMBSMssjisasataMtMMamSM I V w si si jri i PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 3. (AP) A good, old -fashioned halr-pulllng contest which a good many persons till refuse to take too seriously ap pears to bo brewing In the two north west states of Oregon and Washing ton. ' It all hinges around the Columbia river In more ways than one. The name "Columbia" la the bone of contention. an fr thn arsument has drawn comments from the mayors of Port land and Seattle, an unestlmated number of chambers of commerce and several old sea-dogs to whom the river Is home. Ad Clubs Take lp Cry Mayor Joseph K. Carson recently suggested the Columbia should be called "The Oregon." The Portland and Salem advertising clubs took up the cry. And the newspapers have Joined In the chorus mostly with a spirit of approaching levity. Said Mayor Charles L. Smith of .Seattle: "Joe Carson and I have fun to gether, what with football games and Junior chamber of commerco events and so forth, so I'll criticize construc tively. The Columbia river rises In British Columbia and most of Its 1200-mile length runs In Washing ton. It's our river if Its anybody's. I'd much prefer that we call It the Washington river If the name must be changed." Said Mayor Carson of Portland: "The way Seattle has tried to dep recate the great river and Its value and worth, we did not think they would care or do anything about It. ' the good mayor of Seattle Is a mighty good friend of mine, but I don't want that river to empty Into Golden Gate or Into Puget Sound. If they are beginning to realize the importance of the river, I wonder If , they will Join us in gening from the national government to de- ; fend It." Idea "Goldflshy" . A Seattle newspaper said: "The Idea la goldflshy." A Portland newsaper said: "It Is doubtful whether the Canadians (In . whose country the river starts) would listen to Mayor Carson and the ad vertising club of Portland." Another Portland paper said: "It (Columbia) Is a name to cherish and exalt even If some of our folks don't think It appropriate as the designa tion of the. great stream." So far as Is known, only a few chambers of commerce In Oregon have taken action. Several In Washington, however, have gone on record oppos ing a change. Albert Correri, 22, who earned $3.13 a week plus tips at a mes senger In New York, found a for tune In bonds In the financial district. He returned them, and hit reward was a better Job, a pos sible 10 per cent reward, security for his family which Includes seven brothers and sisters and a chanc to achieve his ambition of a news paper career.

SEATTLE. Oct. 2. & The Seattle Dally Times increased 1U price for tuple copies from two to Ihre centa today. Only slight changes wre mie. however. In punier and rn mall sub scription prices. The Times haa been the only one of ths larser newspapers along the coast to maintain the 3c price the past year, the announcement said address war carried to the nation over a radio hook-up. He recalled that centuries ago a writer said that the two most men acing clouds that hang over human government and human society are "malice domestic and fierce foreign war." Must Face Two Fears "Never was there more genuine reason.", he Bald, "for Americans to face down these two causes of fear. 'Malice domestic' from time to time will come to you In the shape of those who would raise false Issues, pervert facts, preach the gospel of hate, and minimize the Importance of the pub lic action to secure human rights or spiritual Ideals. There are those to day who wotfld sow these seeds, but your answer to them Is In the pos session of the plain facts of our present condition. "The second cloud 'Foreign War' is more real a more potent danger at this moment to the future of civ ilization. "It Is not surprising that many of our citizens feel a deep sense of ap prehension lest? some of the nations of the world repeat the folly of twen ty years ago and drag civilization to a level from which world-wide recov ery may be all but Impossible." "In the face of this apprehension the American people can have but one concern and speak but one sentiment: Despite what happens In continents overseas, the United States of Amer ica shall and must remain, as, long ago the father of our country prayed that It might remain unentangled and free. "I Am a Good Neighbor" "At home we have preached and will continue to preach, the gospel of the good neighbor. I hope from the bottom of my heart that as the years go on, In every continent and every clime, nations will follow in proving by deed as well as by word their ad herence to the Ideal of the Ameri cans I am a good neighbor." In this most extensive review of na tional and International affairs prior to his Pacific cruise, Mr. Roosevelt reaffirmed belief of "unmistakable signs of the restoration of sound and genuine confidence." He reiterated his conviction In the principles of the dead NRA for fair trade practices and labor standards andeaid "these principles still live and means for their application I trust can be found." "As the burdens of the depression lift," he assured, "the federal govern ment can and will greatly divest It self of Its emergency responsibility but, at the same time, It can not ig nore the Imperfections of the old or der." Clles Recovery Facts Out lining the course he had pur sued to fight the depression the president asserted It was done "not through an Increase In the burden of taxation upon the average citizen, but by adding to the public debt, frankly and honestly." Speaking of recovery he recited these figures: "From March, 1933, through June, 193S, the following gains have been recorded In the Industrial and busi ness life of America. Industrial pro duction Increased 46 per cent; fac tory employment 35 per cent; rural general store sales 104 per cent; au tomobile sales 157 per cent; life In surance written 41 per cent; elec trical power production 18 per cent this last spring. Incidentally, a higher mark than in any other time In our history." Be correctly corseted In sn Artist Model by Ethelwyn B Hoffmnnn. Cse Mali Tribune want ads. E WRECKAGE ROGERS-POST PLANE! BARROW.
