Every Day Everybody Welcome BAR PAYS TRIBUTE 10 JOHN A. CARSON Judges and Attorneys of Salem Eulogize Departed Member Today Tribute to the memory of the late Attorney John A Carson, who died in this city recently after a brief illness, was paid th's morning by the Marion County Bar association in the circuit court room in the court house from ten until eleven o'clock. The court room was draed in mourning and the ehair in which Attorney Carson sat during the i ran I of his last case was draped with black. Judge Callow nv, of departenint Xum ber Two, presided. On his left was Judge Kelly, of department Number One, and on his right was Judge-Elect I Bingham. Attorney John McNary presented the resolution as prepared by the committee in c un ite anil,""" "''w mane then spoke briefly concerning his associatiou with the late attorney and state senator. Ho said that al though Attorney (.'arson had never been blessed with robust health lie was gitt ed with a vigorous mind and a keen intellect. In the years that he was county bar he said the deceased hadthn hree points lower and the other been his opponent in a majority of the 8te.e' ahares. B f the copper group, eases he tried and always found him a gentleman. He had only the highest praise for his quality as a lawyer and thinker. He declared the late attorney- was a man of integrity, and loyalty, and was noted for the clarity ot Ins thought and the correctness of his pleadings. Judge Galloway soul that Attorney Carson was one of the oldest, practi tioners of the Marion county bar and called on Judge Bingham to speak as he was here when Attorney Carson ar rived in Salem. Judge-elect Bingham said he nrrivfcd in Salem in August 1885, and that four years later Carson J came. HO Decame acquamieu wnu , young Carson shortly afterward and the friendshin remained until the day of his death. He declared the Marion i county bar owed much to him on ac count of the thoroughness of his legal training, which was much mare careful than the average American gets. He said his habit of thoroughness and criticism impressed the lawyers of the city so that Portland, with all its learned men, does not average so high as the Marion Onmty Bar in its fqrni nlitv of court nroceedurc. He said be cause of the influence of John Carson the Marion county bar ranks with the highest in the state. iaY- f ne Peut.on Wr Vl Judge Kelly said it was a hopeless ie"f " of , , xs T! . . 1 system of legal training, and became task to express the poignant sorrow of j thoroughly grounded in the fundament the fact that John Carson is gone.

To the President and Members of the This Week 18 k Market Factor -New York, Dee. 2 The New York E wiling Bun f manual review today says: With the approach of the elose of the weekw a day earlier because of the Saturday reeeea, the bulk of the busi ness in today 's stock market was in the form of liquidation in an effort to re duce commitments .luring the leugthy closures of the stock eichange from Friday afternoon to Tuesday morning. Aside from this logical proceeding, there were new developments which had a tendency to depre-s prices. The relations of this country with the CnrraTna regime in Mexiea would seem to be rapidly drifting toward a crisis. The report from abroad, later discov ered to be without foundation, that Ger many had dispatched a supplementary noto to the I'mted Mates government jsrrporting to meet desire, of Washing- ton with respect to the statement of peace terms, was not exactly a bullish influence, but the marker lucked the re sistance to respond when the correc Trading was in a greater volume than in the two preceding days and transac tions approximated the million share mark for the first time this week. Market transactions were orderly throughout, although losses were quite! extensive in the industrial lit.

His points, he made clear. Although his diction was singu larly pure he demonstrated his ability to show that any other conclusion than his would be wrong rather bv clarity of statement than by attempted eloquence or vain rhetoric. He freely ae corded honesty of purpose to those who dif- I fered with him and cotubatted his opin- i ions. It was the good fortune of the members of your committee to know jMr. Carson somewhat intimately for I more than a score of years, and they feel enriched by such association. Our friend is gone, but we will ever jhold him in loving remembraii'e. I Entertaining the feeling which we do, i and conscious of the loss which the ! Bar has sustained, we submit the fol I lowing resolution; and move that it. with these observations, tie spread upon the records of the Circuit Court in Departments one and two: RESOLVED: That the Marion Coun ty Bar Association has sustained a loss in the death of John A.

Washington, Dee. 28. The world 's wheat production of the past season was approximately 75 per cent of that of last year, according to estimates re ceived hero today by the department nf agriculture from the International Insti tute of Agriculture of Rome. The allied countries with the single exception of Australia, where the crop was four per cent greater than in 1915, now face a shortage of a quarter of their normal supply, at a time when their neetl is abnormal. The total production of Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, France, European Rus sia, Rumania. Canada, Switzerland, Nor way, Denmark, Spain, The Netherlands. British lndiu, Japan, Egypt, Tunis and the 1'nited States is placed at 75 per rent of last year's output mid 90 per' cent 6f a five year average. No estimates are given for the central' powers but from the shortage in all ! surrounding countries without exception it is believed the Teutonic allies nie; else hard pressed. The Argentine wheat crop counted on to somewhat relieve the shortage elsewhere lias proven a lamentable fail ure, falling off to but, 44 per cent of 1915, the report states. France produced 90.3 per cenl of her last year 's output. The world oats crop, exclusive of the I central pokers, is estimated at Sii.li per cent of that of 1915 while barley is! quoted in the samp-countries at 101.1 per cent or last year's crop.
