POPULARIZING SOUND
INVESTNENTS
Current Magazine Editors tell us that the
Country Banks are not doing their full duty
tow ard popularizing sound investments,
They say that we leave the field too largely
open to skillful stoek salesmen who find
easy prey among our customers who are
unfamiliar with the risks of new business
enterprises.
They insist that what is needed is more
imagination and aggressiveness on our part
in selling standard securities.
The object of this advertlsment, therefor',
is to say again that it Is an important part of
our business to be well Informed on matters
of this kind and that we carry in stock an
excellent line of Securities including muni
cipal and government bonds and that we
welcome the opportunity of serving the
public, whether hy furnishing Information
or assisting In the selection of high grade
investments.

Held Sunday Afternnnrt I'trrfer
MMicao Legion Auspices
Although nearly two years have
; claused since the armistice was signtd,
,the great war was I irt'iitrht close to tlio
hearts of Hood River folk Sunday
wfieh they assembled at Riverside
j church to nay their last rasp4ctl to
Earl M. Robertson, who died in France
June, 1918, l'ull military rites were
j paid their comrade by niemltcrs of the
I Hood River Post, American Legion.
Following funeral services Ibe" bodv,
Willi an escort of uniformed Legirtn
members, was borne on a motor truck
to the fine Orove cemetery, where it
will n st lh (he "Valley of IVace." as
i-itors here during apple harvest days
have termed Ho.id Rivei. The Kniehts
of Pythias band preceded the funeral
cortege, playing a funeinl march.
The big church was tilled with city
anil valley tolk. Kev. lioddy delivered
the funeral oration. Other valley and
city ministers occupied the pulpit.
Scriptural passage was read by Dr.
liavden Kev. Kayo offered pi aer and
the benediction was pronounced by
Rev. Sykes.
Mr. Robertson, a native of the val
ley, was a son of Robert Kobeitson,
Fine Grove rancher. He was callel to
the colors with 12th Go , Coast Artil
lery, in July. WlT. He was fatally
stricken while serving in France with
the 65th Artillery. The service Sunday
was the only military funeral ever" held
here. Only three other Hood River men
fell In Fiance. Marshall Pineo and
!ity Eastman were killed in action.
The former was serving with the Can
adian army. Flood Grains was killed
accidentally.
Youmr Robertson is the ncphpw of
Mark V. ItoKrtson, a hero of the
Spanish-American war ami also of the
cieat war. He has won two congres
sional recards. One for heroism in res
cuing i i mrades from a native attack
in the Philippines, and I he second for
valor In rescue work In Fiance. The
young Irero buried Sunday is survived
by his falher, Robert Robertson, and a
brother, Harold Robertson. His mother
and two sisters met tragic death in
1911 when their Fust Side ranch home
burned.

THREE-FOURTHS OF
APPLES ARE PICK ED
A record tonnage of apples for the
.-esson, it is believed by grnv O'S, was
picked Tuesday. Indeed, it is likely
that never in the history of the valley
w as the harvest rushed so fast. The
day was the lirst entirely within. t
clouds since October 1. Many owners
of smaller orchards and some with
larger uncage have completed their
picking, tirowers owning large places
in numerous instances, however, still
have a large portion of their eroo on
the t res. Despite the fact that orch
ardists with frnit all under cover are
releasing Home of their harvest help,
sorters, pickers and packt rs are still
badly needed in Fume loealities. A
represent itive of Dee Flat growers
left Tuesday for Portland to secure 4U
harvest bands.
According to records of the Hxperi
ment Station, the Septeinb. r of 1920
has been the wettest wince 1911, when
the prte epilation reached HM. The

RILL IS MISLEADING
Editor Glacier: In behalf of tho di
rectorate of the Public Health Associa
tion may 1 through your columns irive
the people of the county our point of
view concerning the so-called Anti
Compulsory Vaccination Amendment to
be voted on by the people of Oregon
November 'i.
First: The title is a misnomer. It
would lead the uninformed to believe
that there is now a compulsory vaccin
ation law in this state. Such is not the
case. A compulsory vaccination law
requires the vaccination of children be
fore they are admitted to public schools
as a condition of continued attendance,
Oregon never has had such a law. Our
present law giveH the local school boa.d
the authority in times of epidemic to
rouuiro vaccination or temporary ab
sence from school. Now that is all
there in In this law. It is pretty toler
ant. First it puts the authority in the
school board, a body of local citizens
who are in close touch with the nosda
of the community and (2) even In
times of epidemic, wluch happily, due
to preventative xe'ence, aie not fre
quant, the only requirement of those
who do not wish to ire vaccinated il
absence from school for a few days or
weeks. There is no compulsory vac
cination in Oregon. Our present law
is just and tolerant. The proposed
rneasuie is wilfully or iguorantly mis
named. Second; The proposed amendment
(TOM far beyond the merits or demerits
of vaccination as a means of preventa
tive therapeutics. Jt is in reality an
attack on public authority in the mat
ter of health roinilation?. It attacks
the principle that disease is a matter
nt social concern and control. II inaku
the individual the sole arbiter in all
matter! pertaining to comn unicabls
diseases. (Inride tally, too, in doing
away with the recognition of di.sea.-e as
a social mlsfortuna it strikes at th
roots of all gieat humane institutions
whose purpose is the prevention and
amelioration of disease. These are
founded on the tacit recognition of
sickness not as individual but as a
cial misfortune). 1 be passage of this
measure would mean that in Oregon
persons suffering with uiphlheri
smallpox, cholera, Muhonie plague or
any other communicable disease coul
come a. d go as thev please. Portland
iov has a law requiring that piiteyori
01 food be certified as having no vanei
Bal disease. The passu g of this amend
ment means tl at the cook, waiter or
other employe in any lestauiant or ho
lei n.ieht be a syphilitic. 'I he onioon
cits of (his bill take the position that
it is of no concern to anyone but hlm-
r-clf. The rnaaSUfe reads :
Section No form of varcinalioa,
inoculation or other medieation t-hall
be made a condition in this state far
adinis-ion to or attendance in, anv pub
lic School, college, university or educa
tional iii.-tilut ion ; or for the employ
ment of any person in any capacity, or
fcr the exercise of any right, the per
il rmanM of any duty, or the enjoy
ment of any privilege.
All provil ions of the constitution and
lavvs of the slate and of the charters
and ordinances of all cities, tuwns, mu
nicipalitie.i or eounttea therein, in con
diet w;th this, amendment are hereby
repealed.
Such a measure must be proposed
either by vicious men or thoughtless
men. I prefer the latter supposition
but 1 am not willing to be guided by
min Is that are s.i careleM in matters
vital tu public good.
Thrid: Though this measure dors
not deal with a ci nation per se and
though even Informed anti-vaccina
ti n sts will M te again.' t this amend
ment on the grounds of its other leac
tio mry and vicioUl piiases. yet wu do
not hesitate to defend vaccination It
self. Its value is beyond per adven
ture to any but minds I hot are imptr
viics to si ie itific data In the Franco
Prussian war 2.i ihii) soldiers who were
not vaccinated died from smallpox,
while only Stt f the German aoidieral
who were vacc Rated, sue. urnl ed to th
dieeaae. Out of 4,500,030 American
men in the worll war, eight died of
smallpox. All were vaccinated, and
yet we are told vai -cinati HI i more
dangerous than smalltwjx.
The attack on the meiiicHl profession,
which has been part of the propaganda
of tins bill is the result of surprising
iirnorHnce. No profession ha." ever done
more unselfi-h work for the public good.
All the great advance in sanitation and
preventive mcdi ine has been rnadi un
der the leailershn of the prod s- ion and
all for t he elimination of d sea- and
ii i eonncquent lessening of demand for
medivl attention. Have the e people
who have been attacking the pfavaieieai
in this narrow and intolerant mariner
n i r heard of Walter Reed. Trudeao
and Pa t'Ur. an! all those who gave
their lives for the previ ntior, of um
ease? One who knows the spirit of the
profesri n knows that, on the whole,
the spirit of these men M II dominates
it.

Highway Commission and forestry iffl
cials in Poi land last week, wherr a'
la ge cfelegptkin was present, to discuss'
plans for tiie Mount Hood Loop High

that the end of the Loop on this, sidi
of the mountain might be altogether'
postponed f,, a time. Subsequent''
events, however, proved ihat the Hood

K. A. Booth, speaking for liimr.elf, .
informed delegations from Multnomah,
Clackamas and Hood Rivi r i cuntles,1
that He never heard any talk of alian'-''
doning the loop until the delegations
begari speaking. Commissioner B09U1,
said he wants to ee the r. ad from
Sandy to Go'veriimeiit Carq tiiiilt next'
year and riot built hut coinftWttd that
lar. This road, which ho said was'vrr
tually a market Toad, will be usable.
As for the Hood River end of the pro
ject, Mr. Booth said he only wants to
Ml ay it next year while the (lovefn
11 out Camn Slim'., end is being jiushe 1.
Such a plan is constructive corrteruiea
1 he commissiotH r.
Mr. Hooth said he had heel over the'
reposed loop and asserted that the.
nest scenery; is at the ends and not in(
the middle. He expressed Fim'seTf as
disapp ilnted in the Idnp'l.s :t scenic as'
set. with its shaggy roi I t', patches of"

dozens of ri idl in Oregon more scenic,

"Oregon is blessed with a I1MI0 bit
too miii h scenery for the good of its
roada," contributed Mr. Kiddle, who
went on to say that Hie loop will cost
$2,0(10,0(111.
Chairman Henson said that the loop
willcairy mere trutlic when finished, .
1 ban any other crossing in the moun
tains. He fav-red having the govern
ment let the contract for six miles on
the Hood Itfvef county end, believing
that by letting the eontrael nnw il will

(Jeorge 11. Cecil, representing the gov-
