SKiPWORTH 10 HEAR JOB INSURANCE TEST Word has been received from Cir cuit Judge Frank L. Sklpworth of Lane county that he will be here Thursday. October , to hear argu ments In the suit of the Pinnacle Packing company, and five other Rogue River valley packing plants, snd Leonard Carpenter, fruitgrower, against the Oregon State Unemploy ment Compensation commission. The suit attacks constitutionality of the Jobless Insurance law In this state, and the main Issue at Thurs day's session, will be upon the appli cation of the packing houses for a temporary injunction, restraining the state unemployment commission from collecting levies and payroll taxes from the plaintiffs, ponding final determination of the suit. Judge Sklpworth was assigned to hear the case, when an affidavit or prejudice was filed against Judge H. D. Norton, by a state commission field auditor, J. B. Krause. Validity of the Jobless Insurance is attacked upon the grounds that fruit puckers should be exempt under the agricultural clause of the law; that the workers are largely transitory, and that the law Insofar as It affects the packing pi nuts, is discriminatory. Judge Sklpworth Is well known here where In past years he has been assigned to hear cases. Woman Attorney Given Clemency OKLAHOMA CITY. Oct. 3, (AP Mrs. Mollle O.

(Continued trom page One ) be particularly desirous of paying for a guarantee, even If the rate (based on risk plus storage and handling charges) la low. There la a question of what effect the government storage would have on prices, the tremendous arithme tical problem Involved In working out fair actuarial basis, the prospect of government losses, etc. Some heckler will undoubtedly arise to ask why, if this Is such a perfect scheme, did no one think of It until six weeks before election. There are two or more answers to that. One Is, farm experts have been thinking of it since long before a senate committee held hearings on the subject In 1023. Another is that actuarial data was lacking until the AAA dug up everything there Is to know about every acre In the coun try. The thing to remember Is that all President Roosevelt has recommendea is a study, that congressmen, selfishly Interested in their respective districts, will have to pass on It, ana that there's many a slip between a study and a law. The house gave the Townsend In vestigating committee special author ity to make its report publio during the campaign, -but no one has seen hide nor hair of It. Just between you and the gate post, the roport was finished weeks ago by Chairman Jasper Bell, of the investigating committee. It was sent to Speaker Bankhead of the house, who knows something of the national aspect of the political campaign now In progress. Mr. Bankhead sent It back to Mr. Bell for revision. It may be made publlo before elec tion, but not In Its original form. Vice-President Garner la the only silent moo on either side In the campaign. He came through Wash ington the other day, but not a line was published because newsmen did not find about It until he had gone on his way to Texas. The V.-P. will return for confer ences of the strategy board which Includes Senators Robinson, Byrnes and other congressional figures who are haunting the capital again these days, now that their primary cam paigns are over. But the latest Inside word Is he will make one campaign speech In stead of two. and by next week ine one will probably be cut to one-half. The progressive national committee (La Follett?, Norrla et al) Is promot ing the re-election of Mr. Roosevelt but will not take any money from the Democratic national committee. The unannounced reason la this: Senator NorrlB,- who has frequently attacked Jim Farley, would not stand for it. "Pay Less Park Easier" RIVERSIDE MARKET OPEN SUNDAYS AND EVENINGS Phono 358 313 315 N.

It la bard to think of anything or write of anything but the disas trous fire on the Oregon coast. It la a real catastrophe. ODDLY enough, the Oregon coast country, with its abULdant rah'fall and Its heavy fogs, appears to lend Itself under certain circum stances to calamitous fires. If you have driven the beautflul coast highway, from Brookings to Astoria, you must have noticed the extent of bare hillsides from which the timber was swept by an ancient conflagration. So bot was thla great fire that it burned the very soil, de laying foT decadespossibly genera tloi.s the process of reforestation. The date of this tire la not well established, but Indian tradition la still fairly full of It. There are tales of wild animals scurrying In droves ahead of the flames to take efuge in the atreams or the waters of the ocean. It must have been little short of a nolocaust. THE great TlUamook fire la still fresh In memory for It recur red only a few years ago. This fire burned over a well timbered area, and the losses were tremendouu Be cause of destruction of standing tim ber, Tillamook county has been han dicapped In lta tax poilclea. IN the luah climate of the ' O'egoii coast country, with Its rlcb soli ana Its abundant moisture, vegeta tion growa emailngly. In plaoes. the country resembles a '-topical Jungle, normally, thla vegetat.on Is green and damp, and resists fire. But at certain times, usually In the fall, when the weeds and the grass and the brush are beginning to harden and dry out, periods of ab no mally low humidity occur, and there are DANOER perlode When fire get loose at these times, the heavy vegetation of the coas. country pro vUUt fuel for it to feed on. THERE la a definite relation be tween humidity and forest fires, it you are familiar with the out doors, you will understand thla rela tionship, for you know that on cer tain days It la hard to start a camp flM even though your wood appears to be dry, whereaa on other days your camp fire will flame up, hot and crackling, at the mere touoh of a match.

Humidity along the Oregon coast Is and has oeen abnormally low for some time. Hence the amazing speed and destruction of the fire.
