Phone 1221 Free Delivery AS A LARGE BANK VIEWS THE WAR The viewpiont of one of the country'! largest financial institution as to the European war ii of interest Below are given eitractf from a recent financial letter issued by the National City Bank, of Chicago. Extraordinary complicatione attend ing the outbreak of war in Europe have caused a paralysis of business on all the great markets, and construct ive enterprises every where have teen checked. The American market has come to be the most important finan cial center of the world for the time being, because the London bill of ex change, hitherto accepted everywhere as the standard of payment, is no long er readily available for conversion into cash. The hold-up of business gener ally has been wholly unprecedented, and although ocean transportation is being gradually resumed, it is possible only with the aid of war risk protec tion. , Europe's credit machinery has broken down absolutely, so that a moratorium has had to be resorted to as the only means of preventing financial chaos. In spite cf the fact that w shipped $'0,u00,000 gold in the closing days of July, and about $16O,(HiO,0uO since the year opened, the foreign markets would unquestionably have taken 100,000.000 more gold had it not been for the combined efforts of the banks to prevent it. The real conllagrationn started with Germany's declaration of war against Russia on August 1. A few days be fore that Austria had declared war on Scrvia and developments were so sen sational as to indicate that all of the great powers of Europe would inevit ably be drawn into the conflict. The struggle now takes in nine or ten na tions, "whose residents comprise more than half the population of the world, and while it ia probable that the sphere of disturbance will not extend, the disruption is so extraordinary as to make it impossible for anyone to forecast the future. Professor Charles Hichet, of the University of Paris, has estimated the cost of sustaining the armies at virtually $50,000,000 a day, and this, of course, does not include the frightful waste represented by the withdrawal of several million men from the productive industries. Prob ably no economist could estimate with any accuracy the total cost to the civil ized world of such a war, but there is little doubt that the struggle will be altogether the most costly of the kind that the world has ever sten. Europe will be wrestling with the burdens for years to come and future generations will have to pay heavily for this great crime of the twentieth century. Hut the hope is that some way will be found lor ending the struggle witnin a few months. Admiral Mahan has expressed the view that it will be a long war, and some European experts have taken similar ground. But the sufferings of the people are so great and the commercial burdens assumed so heavy that some basis is afforded for the hope that the first terrinc bat tle on land or sea may open the way for quick recourse to a peace tribunal. One blessing likely to come, how ever, will be the utter disgust of civil ized nutions upon their realization or the bloodshed and the total waste in volved in this the greatest of all wars, and possibly a keen sense of humilia tion that such a thing could happen in this enlightened age. Then when the people start to pay the bills, and have to reckon with the destruction of so many useful lives, the sense of wrong and injustice should be so great as to give rise to the most extraordinary peace movement that the worm has ever seen. J hat in itself wouiu tie a great achievement ; but the pity of it is that the nations affected had to tol erate wholesale murder before discov ering the awful folly of it all.

Newton, of the Cloud-Newton Cannery Co.. says that the report to the effect that the eight hour mini mum wage law has been responsible for the closing of the cannery is incor rect. A statement to this effect was made by a bulletin issued from Port land. "It is news to us," said Mr. Newton Monday morning. "I had heard noth ing of the kind until you asked me about it. The law you ask about does not concern us ; for we have been al lowed to employ our help for 10 hours." With the pear season over, the can nery will probably close until next sea son's strawberry crop is ready. "We will probably not handle any apples," said Mr. Newton. "ROADS AN ASSET," SAYS MEDFORD MAN Hood River valley it a Gem.

Such is the comment of I inj. C.

"We are building a J3 rr.ne scenic boulevard over the Siskiyou mountains with a maximum grade of si rt-rcent. connecting at the California line with that state a section of the nume high way. We havel three full crews ut work on a 17 mile section of that high way from Ashland to MedforJ and on to Central Point. It ia of practically the same construction aa city pave ment. "Southern California has been made by its 'tourist crop.' We are after our share and are .beginning to -n t them. It ia a travel that brings mor.iv into a community and leaves it thero. Hood Kiver should have its share. The open ing of your splendid Columbia highway to Portland is your opportunity. The plan of building a fine 'Im p' route through your unrivaled (except by Kogue River valley) orchiirils to the base of Mount Hood is spleiulul. Don't let anything side track that plan, (let it in shape for 11)15, the Iihiim r year for the Pacific coast. If the money left in Medford by the increased auto travel attracted there by our khoiI road work could be collected into one fund, it would more'than pay the ii.ti rest on our good road bond issue. "1 have covered about all the state on this trip. Politics have not warmed up yet, except in a few newspapers. The governorship, the U. S. senator ship and the wet and dry contests oc cupy the field to the exclusion of other issues. In southern .Oregon, from Koseburg over to Klamath Kails and Lakeview, the people are greatly in terested in the plan to reopen their southern Oregon State Normal school. They are a 'good schools' people and have learned, in many efforts to im prove school conditions, that the key to the situation is the trained teacher. Fully three-fourths of the teachers of the state are without normal school training. Over $5,300,000 is spent an nually in Oregon on common schools. How much farther this money would go in producing actual results if spent on thorough teachers who had been trained for their work. On grounds of economy alone, this school should be reopened. "Like Hood River, we are wondering what effect this war will have on fruit prices. We hope for the best. Our crop is below normal, both on account of a frost damage and an unprecedented dry spell. We have learned that the former can be overcome by proper equipment intelligently handled. We successfully combated a temperature of 22 last spring wheie orchards were amply equipped. We hope this season's dry spell will convince our skeptics of the value of irrigation. We have water to waste but have not heretofore in duced enough of the orcharding to use it to warrant an extension of the sys tem to cover the whole valley. If that development follows this season's drought we could well have afforded to lose our whole crop instead of about IT) per cent.

The party visited Rainier, Olympia, Shelton, the Satsop country. Gray's Harbor, Pacifie-Moclipsbeach and Cen tralia. The return was made by way of Winlock. While on the outing Mr. Knapp and family motored to the foot of Nisqually glacier. They left their machine there and walked up to Paradise. Valley. "I have never seen a more beautiful spot than that wonderful valley," says Mr. Knapp. "It is worth the while of anyjune to visit it. We made our entire trip without any trouble except for a single puncture. After we reached Chehalis, going north, we found the best of roads."

Leonard, who is operating the Oee hotel and who was in the city Monday on business. "The mill of the Oregon Lumber Co. is temporarily closed on account of a breakdown, and a great many of the employes are away in Portland." Mr. Leonard has instituted a plan of giving dances each Saturday night at the Dee hall. "I will continue the dances," says Mr. Leonard, "as they are not only a source of pleasure to the mill men, but to other residents of the adjoining country.

Baker Visits Tacoma (From Tacoma, Wash., News) "If the apple growers, instead of be coming discouraged and not marketing their apples because of the poor de mand and large supply, should put them on the market and take the'price they could get, the apples would sell rapidly and the growers might get some fair return," said Leonard A. Baker, of Hood Kivcr, secretary of the Hood River Apple Vinegar Company, who was in Tacoma recently. "In our country many carloads of apples will go to waste this year be cause the growers will not market them at the low price.

Burchard left our city to take charge of affairs in his line in your community 1 resolved that I would write a letter to the newspa pers in Hood River in behulf of this most worthy clergyman. I do not know what particular brand of religion you adhere to, and wish to tell you that, as 1 do not adhere to any, that Fr. Burchard was one of the best men for this community that we have ever known and that there was not a busi ness or professional man in the city who did not regret losing him. We found him a live one in every respect and always ready to do anything for anyone or anyone's ventures, if the same were worthy. In short, he ia a man whom you will always find right concerning everything and a genuine asset to your comunity.
