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. Edison, Denver woman
attorney, waa given a one-year sus
pended federal sentence today on a
nolo contendere plea to a charge or
giving perjured testimony in the trtil
of Ben B. Laska, convicted conspira
tor in the $200,000 Charles E. Urschel
kidnaping.
Mrs. Edison was accused of testify
lng falsely that she was in Laska'a
Denver law ofrice when $3000 was
paid to him as a legal fee by Edward
Feldman .stepson of Albert Bates,
convicted Urschel kidnaper.
(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.

By FRANK JENKINS
AS these words are put on paper.
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. The days when your camp

fire starts soggtly are humid daya,
wh'le those on which it flames up
readily are daya when the' humidity

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