Ending Speculation m the
Grain Trade
WHEAT la not the richest
crop in the Klamath coun
try, but the action ot the govern
ment n controlling the produc
tion and market indicates pos
sible action In all manner ot
agriculture. Gambling in wheat

try felt better last week when the
government announced there
Bust be a halt to specalatlon.
We hire Just seen the wheat
market rise rapidly with specula
tion and we hare seen H drop
back again In a spectacular crash.
These fluctuations, dangerous in
their affect npon the recovery
program, hare been partly cur
tailed by the administration and
anless there la a general reform

ment will go further. This la not
Just a warning from Washington:
tt is a demand.
The news ot a day or two ago
quoted George N. Psak, adminis
trator of the farm act, as follows:
"Abuses exist la the grain
trades and they, acting aa the
marketing medium for the farm
ers, should correct them. If they
do not succeed, then the govern
ment will act. I know ot no In
dustry other than farming which
has so Httle to say about the price
received for Its product."
No one can criticise the Chi
cago Board of Trade and general
train exchanges as useless, for
they have specific functions tor
producers, processors and con
aamera. It Is the uncontrolled
speculation and the violent fluctu
ations preventing the fall opera
tion ot these functions.
Agriculture, like all industry,
must have an orderly market
based upon supply and demand.
Prices must not be Inflated or de
flated merely for the sake ot
profit among manipulators. The
government cannot afford to per
mit ha hundred-million dollar
production control program be
menaced.
Peek has been given extraor
dinary power under the farm act.

there la nothing to do bnt accept

The market has generally been
willing to accept without com
plaint, and now lasting remedies

It doesn't prove much, but it la

Klamath Falla Gets Horn
Loan Branch
KLAMATH FALLS has been
designated aa the location of
a branch office In the Home Own
ers Loan corportioa program. It
will bring a medium ot direct re
lief to mortgage-burdened tax
payers. Prospective borrowers from this
federal agsncy may go directly to
the corporation's branch for ne
gotiations. Preliminary apprais
als ot property will be made with
out cost and it the loan la granted
the subsequent appraisal and ex
amination ot title will be made
at a nominal tee.
The gorernment stern in the
enforcement of ita provisions, has
ordered heavy tines and imprison
msnt for violations ot this emer
gency horn loan act.
All prisoners who have escaped
the state penitentiary In the last
seven years have been re-captured.
That ahould be convincing

Telling the
Editor
KLAMATH FALLS. Ore. (To
the Editor) The undersigned,
as president ot the Mill and Tim
ber Workers Union No. 1SJS9 of
Klamath Falls, Oregon, organised
under the American Federation
of Labor, would like to present
to the readers ot your papers
our side of the issue under dis
cussion. First:
We hare the whole-hearted
support ot the district attorney's
office; also the local city police,
who have both thanked us for
the peaceful procedure of our
strike. Now, If we were the group
oi raaicais we nave Deen called,
would those two law enforce
ment bodies hare complimented
us on our past actions?
Second:
Each person, or groups ot per
sons, are instructed to use no
thing but peaceful and fair means
to accomplish any and all tasks
assigned to mem by the anion
Now, dear readers, if some mem
ber should not control his temper,
do not condemn this body. Some
of our delegates have been sub
jected to almost more than a sane
person can or should endure, but
our delegates, to the best ot mr
knowledge and belief, have acted
as ladies and gentlemen at that
crisis. If each and every one of
you readers will agree to let the
might of right govern yonr own
decision, this organiration will be
solid in every branch ot the lum
ber industry of the United States,
and strikes will not be necessary
in the future, as all of the trou
ble can be settled by arbitration.
This writer Is a firm believer
in the following items: That ev
erything be done peacefully.
Tnai everytning be done lawfully.
That everything be done legal-i
ly-
There Is always some one pre
sent at this meeting place, the
Pond's hall, located at Ninth
and Walnut streets. If sny per
son, or persons, whether a mem
ber of any organization or not,
has any questions to ak. they
are welcome to come and ask
them, whether they be scrub-women,
or the Tutted States' presi
dents wife. Trusting this will
clear up for once and all the fact
that we are not raaicaie or wnai
nots, I beg to remain. Tours
very truly.

Serious Election Can
Produce Oddities
AN ELECTION la a serious
thing, ot course, but no
lection passes without Its dis
play ot oddities. In Oregon
where there are miles of Isolated
territory and scattered precincts,
an election can product Incidents
fit for the records.
In Curry counly, we havo been
told, there was one precinct In
which the only votoa cast were
by the members of the election
board. And then out at the Mc
Gregor precinct in Clatsop coun
ty there were only eight votes
cast, representing quite an outlay
of taxpayera' money. The cost
of conducting the election la that
particular precinct was 131 for
an average ot $4 per vote. The
ballot boxes were transported to
tbe county clerk's office at a cost
of 116. A few cents for stamps
would hare done the trick equal
ly well, but the state law requir
ed personal delivery by an accre
dited official.
Down In Dento ths votes were
brought Into Burns by tbe elec
tion official. He covered 120
miles round trip and every Inch
of It was In Harney county, the
largest In the state,
Happy Valley, also In Harney
county, took swift action on all
nine measures. The six residents
went to the polls In a group, vot
ed unanimously to accept seven
measures and then unanimously

There was also the Inner trou
ble about Moley's proposed cur
rency sgreement. Hull declined
to sign It until he hesrd from Mr.
Roosevelt. It is well he did. Mr.
Roosevelt sided with Hull.
These things led to mutual em
barrassments which all partiei
now agree are just as well for
gotten. Actually they were not much
more Important than other squsb
bles bsckstage in the Americas
delegation.
Leak
The hottest one wss between
Ex-Governor Cox snd Senator
Couzens. It seems Cox accused
Couiens of whisperlna the newi
thst a temporary stabilisation
agreement was near. Couzens
laughed at him at first, but Cox
was serious. Couzens investigat
ed and found Cox himself had
been the leak inadvertantly of
course.
A certain newspaperman drew
the news out of Cox by a series of
trick questions. To thl, dsy
Cox does not realize that he was
duped by a smart reporter. He
and Couzens fought over the mat
ter continuously.
They would have put on boilnr
gloves if both had not passed the
age when retirement from the
ring Is obligatory.
Unanimity
The whole conference appears
to have been on a similar unele
ratlng plane.
Most of the returning delegate
and near-delegates confess prl
vstely thst they wish they had
remained in Washington.
That makes It unanimous.
Some near-insiders have the
Idea that the state department la
not big enough to hold both Mo
ley and Hull hereafter.
Those who should know the
President's mind do not agree
They whisper that Mr. Roosevelt
did not expert the two to work
together. Hull is an internation
alist; Moley a Nationalist. What
Mr. Roosevelt wanted from them
Is a balance between these two
views, and not personal harmony.
He will maintain the team If
possible.
Recognition
A trade mission may be Hatt
ed shortly toward Moscow.
WASHINGTON, July II. President Roosevelt Is saying it
with flowers to all discouraged members of his official family
who want to quit. .
The latest poser waa tossed via wlrelesa to State Secretary
Hull aboard ship. It expressed the "affectionate regard and con
fidence" of Mr. Roosevelt in bis No. 1 cabinet man.
By the end of the week, the President hopee to have all the
quarreling boys wearing gardenias. He probably will.
Tbe Hull message came after .
Mr. Roosevelt received a private
fill-in on what went on backstage
at London. He called each of
the returning delegates to the
White House before he left for
Hyde Park. He buzzed them
closely. One was kept on the
carpet until 1:30 a. m., relating
every detail he could recall.
The delegates all sang praises
of Secretary Hull. They admit
ted his imperturbable disposition
probably saved the American dele
gates from tweeking each other's
noses before they got through.
Blood
But what hurt most wss their
warning that Hull was returning
with blood in his eye. They
hinted he would demsnd that
Moley resign or be transferred or
that he himself be permitted to
resign. That was astounding be
cause Hull is such a mild-mannered
man it would be almost im
possible to conceive of htm with
bloodshot orbs.
Apparently the conference was
nothing but a collection of misun
derstandings. Most of them cen
tered about Hull.
The London newspapers treat
ed him as a fifth-rate actor In the
Internationa; drama. They gave
all the limelight to Moley. In
addition Moley appears to hare
sent a wireless message to the
American embassy at London
which was subject to misinterpre
tations. Some interpreted the message
as suggesting that the embassy
keep sn eye on ths American delegates.
"LOVE" waa the subject of the
Lesson-sermon' In all Churchee of
Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, July
30.
The Golden Text was, "8lng. 0
heavens; and be joyful, O earth!
and break forth into singing, o
mountains: for the Lord hath
comtorted his people, and will
have merry upon bis afflicted"
(lsa. 4:I3).
Among the citations which com
prised the Lesson-Sermon was the
following from the BIMo: "God Is
love: and be that dwelleth In lore
dwelleth In God, and God in him'
(I John 4:1).
The Lesson-Sermon also ln
eluded the following correlative
passages from the Christian Sci
ence textbook. "Science and
Health with Key to ths Scrip
tures," by. Mary Baker Eddy:
"People go Into ecstasies over the
sense of a corporal Jchovnh.
though with arareely a spark of
love In their hearts; yet Ood is
Love, and without Love, Uod,
Immortality cannot appear. . . .
Mortals believe in a finite per
sonal God; while God Is Infinite

Mr. Roosevelt has recently
turned bis mind to that topic.
Prof. Moley is handling tt for
him. Moley also will handle the
ticklish war debt question later.
The question ot personnel tor
such a mission was up before Mr.
Roosevelt left lsst Friday. Sev
eral men were consulted. An an
nouncement may be made short
ly. e e
Ton can drop Senator Consens
off your list of possible treasury
secretaries.
Those close to him say he will
resist the temptation if It is of
fered. He would like to get into
the treasury and manhandle the
internal revenue bureau. He has
been trying to do it from the out
side for years. He would retire
happy if he could make the big
fellows pay more taxes.
However. It would mean aban
donment of his Republican affili
ations. That la too high a price
to pay, considering the things he
has In mind tor ths Republican
Party.
Notes
There Is plenty of work In the
state depsrtment for both Hull
snd Moley. with Hull handling
the coming tariff negotiations and
Moley handling debts and Rus
sia. They are both too valuable
to lose, from Mr. Roosevelt's
standpoint,

trace was actually agreed on at
