PAST TWO YEARS
SALEM. Oct. 8. (AP) Brery Ore
gon county reduced lta bonded ln
debtednew during the past two
yeara. State Treasurer Rufus O. Hol
man stated In his biennial report for
the legislature.
The total bonded debt of the 38
counties July 1 this year wa 121,365,
064 aa compared to t24.0Sl.453 two
yeara earlier. Road warranta of the
counties. Holman said, showed a
alight increase.
Most of the counties reduced their
outstanding general fund warrant in
' debtednesa, Holman said, showing
that the counties are "In excellent
financial condition with respect to
outstanding debts, considering past
tat delinquencies and the general
reduction In assessed valuations."
Only three counties, Jackson. Polk
and Umatilla, show an Increase In
ratio of Indebtedness to assessed
valuation, due to decline In assessed
valuations. Umatilla county likewise
reiumea to a casn oasis.
Nine counties, Clatsop. Columbia,
Douglas. Josephine, Linn, Marlon,
Polk. Umatilla and Washington had
no bonded Indebtedness, and Clatsop.
Unn and Marlon counties had nei
ther bonds or warrants outstanding.
Curry and Union counties, Holman
reported, made the best showings
with respect to lowering of ratios of
Indebtedness to assessed valuation.
(Continued troro page One.)
It Is Just aa technical and narrow
as the monetary agreement.
The cumnt treni seems to be
toward further U. 8. shrinkage Into
Its Independent International shell.
Senator "Silver Key" Plttman'a re
cant awing through the silver state
waa made aa a. member of the mi
gratory bird commission. Thla la not
the only Indication thijt the silver
pollr? la on the wing again.
Equally significant was the action
of Mexico restoring silver coins to
their pra-1936 fineness. This means
the Mexican government haa decided
the price of silver will not again
reach the high levels of April, 1935,
when her coins became too valuable
to keep and were thrown Into melt
ing pot for the purpose of recover
ing the silver from them. To any
Insider here. It Is Inconceivable that
Mexico acted without knowing what
Vie American treasury Intended to do.
The treasury has been diplomatically
close to Mexico -unos Its initial silver
policy upset Mexican money.
But why Mexico ahould undertake
such a costly itep at thla time la
harder to explain. Two good guessea
can be made. The action may reflect
pressure from the Ptttman group
(the senator atlll Is the silver pol
icy) to restore the social standing of
silver and save Its monetary face.
Or It may be a preliminary move
toward expanding the monetary mar
ket for silver In Latin America. In
connection with the forthcoming
Pan-American conference.
The last tribute of the navy to
lta world war leader. Admiral 81ms.
oould have been greater. The man
who criticizes and loved the service
with equal ardor was given all the
honors due his rank. But the usual
official invitations to other depart
ments were not issued. The war de
, pertment finally moved without an
k invitation and sent a staff officer
in full uniform, but the ethers did
BThle gave encouragement to a story
.v.. .h. srfmlrala stlU remember
aeme of the strictures which de
acended upon them from Sims caus
tic pen and tongue. There Is noth
lng in that. The navy Just does not
olten have charge of such arrange
menta and did Mot know what to do.
When Agriculture Secretary Wal
lace and his first assistant were out
of town during the Isst few weeks,
all questions of agriculture policy
were referred to a man who left the
department months ego the federal
reserve boarder. Chester Davis Quite
unobserved. Davis hss taken a very
active psrt In all the recent farm
policy development. He only uses the
federal reserve ooard s a more eon
genial place In which to hang his
hat, .

TO
Speaking Sunday night at the
Church of the Nasarene, Fred M.
Weatherford, pas tor-evangel 1st, gnve
the second message in a series per
taJnlng to the second coming of
Christ.
The topic Sunday was "What's Do
ing in the World After Christ Takes
the Saints at His Second Coming."
Rev. Weatherford :ead the following
Scriptures. Isa. 34-16:22. Rev. 6, 7
11. and Rev. 0, 1-33. His message
In brief follows:
"That which takes place Immedi
ately following the second coming of
Christ and the snatching away of
the resurrected and living saints will
be marked by the beginning of a
great tribulation.
"The social condition at that time
will be pathetically low. Let It be
remembered that Sodom was destroy
ed because God rould not find ten
righteous men In the city. The catch
ing away of the satnte portends a
time of trouble to those left remain
ing. Daniel 13-1 reads: "There shall
be a time of trouble such as never
was since there was a nation even
to that same time.
"The Saviour said with unmistak
able emphasis that the perfidious
Iniquities and nen&uMlUes fiat char
acterised the, days of Noah and Lot
would be repeated during the end
period. During that time murder will
be the commonest of crimes It Is
now, Leaders of public sentiment
pass It by with little. If any serious
thought. Infanticide, homicide, and
all forms of murder will characterize
society it does now."
