Much of it went at $16.50 a ton in the stack, regardless, in many instances, of quality. With these in ducements few farmers are holding. A large part of tho hay is being held at Stanfield and will be fed there. Be cause of the high price of hay many cattlemen are selling heavily and the possibility of a beef shortage this win ter looms large. - n MORROW II p u LI II 11 N ti the ArNCKIi ti it ti ii ti ii ii El II 11 11 11 M 11 11 11 II 11 fl II u 3 THINKS PRESIDENT IS SO" AGAINST PEACE Pops Will Not Abandon Move for PeaceMay Lead to Series of Notes By John H, Hearley, (United Press Staff Correspondent.) Rome, Sept. 3. Pope Benedict re gards President Wilson as more firmly set on continuance of the war than any other belligerent rulej according to authoritative Vatican reports today. No attempt was made in papal cir cles to conceal bitter disappointment at tho American reply. The charge was voiced that tho president had contra dicted himself and had begged the question. . , Emphasis was laid today on the fact that despite the unfavorable reply from America, Pope Benedict does not pro pose to abandon his attempts to restore peace. When all the belligerents shall have replied, the holy father proposes another attempt. A second note probably will set forth the points of unanimity in peace aims developed in all the reply notes and will discuss tho points of variance. A special effort, however, may be made before this section general note to the world to sway President Wilson and America. The Vatican may con centrate its peace persuasion on the president first, because of the view that he is now more determined on war to a decision than any other ruler; second, because of indications that his reply will- be accepted word for word as that of the allies; third, because America 's great moral forces are 'relief upon; and fourth, because the Vatican view that the pope's peace suggestions were merely a step further than the peace principles enunciated by the pres ident last December. Some circles predicted a long, series of notes between Washington and the Vatican. Indicating Italy 's acceptance of the American reply, the authoritative Gornale D 'Italia in applauding the note declared "it will be echoed in every allied country." Fruitland News Items (Capital Journal Special Service) Fruitland, Sept. 3 Saturday even ing Sept. 1, the Bethel auxiliary Eed Cross met a't the school house. A largo crowd assembled more than filling the house, a literary and musical program was rendered. Mrs. Arthur Schulz hav ing charge. Several of the Red Cross people from Salem very materially as sisted in making the meeting a suc cess. Seven young ladies of the capital city were present, viz: Misses Prances Hodge, Dorothy Patterson, Eva Miles, Maxine Buren, Gladys Moore, Josephine- Baumgartner and Ruth Barnes. Each of these had a ukelele by the aid of which two or three musical numbers wore rendered. They made a fine im pression. The Fruitland-Yeoman quar tette consisting of C. M. Robinson and Mrs. Robinson, Bert Brossler and Os wald Fliegol ontertained those present with instrumental selections. The Schindler brothers, Albert and Turfield from Polk county gave some humorous selections which were much enjoyed, calling for encores. Some of the chil dren had recitations and songs which were applauded and which called them the second time before the house. Young Mr. Huckestein of Salem enter tained with several tricks of legerde main which made us rurals stare with open eyed wonder- Ice cream and cake supplemented with water melon were served. Altogether the occasion was an enjoyable one. Monday and Tuesday will see several Fruitlanders start for the hop fields. Fern Runcorn and Mrs. Runcorn arc visiting here, Mrs. Runcorn's parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. D. MePeek. Why should those pacifists agitate themselves about stopping the war when Jesus our mighty oavior, through his proxy or vice regent, sitting in the Fisherman's chair at Romo cannot f This dry, hot weather is not an evil unmixed with good. The corn is now having a chance to mature- Wet weath er might just keep the stalks green. As it is now the ears aro like a starving man. living off and being nourished by his body. About all the nourishment they now have comes from the stalk, more or less green and sappy, as noth ing now conies from the ground to nour ish. As this sap is going to the forming ear there is these hot das a feeding and developing of the ear from the dying body of the stalk. About "meatless days. ' Why eat meat at all and have all our days meat less It has been demonstrated over and over again that a human being can get along without meat and work hard if other nourishing food is used. Vegetarianism or a non-meat diet is not a fad. In the beginning our far away forefathers and foremothers ate no flesh- Read tho last few verses of Gen. 1. This writer and family have for 30 years or more not used on an average 50 pounds of flesrffood each year. Tea Drinkers Will Have to Pay for Luxury Tea drinkers will either be obliged to drink less to keep down the high cost of living, or be willing to pay even higher prices than quotations of today. Even before the internal revenue tax duty has been placed, the trade has been facing an enormous ad vance in price. Salem gTocers had the foresight to buy against tho rapid ad vance and while the tea drinkers are not paving a big priee, they will ns soon a present stock's are exhausted. Tea from Japan has advanced only a few cents a pound, and this has been regulated to some extent by the Jap anese government that its teas may get a foothold in the market while that from China, including young hyson, gunpowder and English Breakfast are 300 per cent higher than a year or so ago. Lipton's teas are now eosting the merchant 15 cents a pound more than a year ago. SHORT FLAX CROP, DUE TO LONG DRY SUMMER Expert Hansett Says Irrigated; Section at West Slayton Will Be Tried E. J. Hansett, the flax expert, who is superintendent of the Oregon Flax company at Turner, is in the Gaston neighborhood looking over flax pros pects. He has been in the flax busi ness in this county for the past thir teen, years, and the crop this year has been the shortest he has ever known, due Tie says to the lack of rain as the crop had to be raised without a drop of water. The irrigated tracts raised fine crops this year and this inclines Mr. Hansett to strongly favor irrigation, as the flax crop must be well watered the latter part of June, either by a natural rain or by irrigation.! Next spring Mr. Hansett says special attention in flax raising will be given to the irrigated districts near West Stoyton, as .with water, there is no such thing as failure. The handling and threshing of the crop at Turner will be completed this week and all retting will be done by October 1. "Flax needs moisture tho lntter part of June when in blossom," Mr. Han sett said, ' 'and as there was no rain to any extent during blossoming time, the crop is naturally short. In Belgium and Ireland it is the rainy summers that make the flax crops. This can bo remedied here by irrigation." TODAY'S BASEBALL SCORES National. Morning games R. H. E.

HELPED RED CROSS San Francisco, Sept. 3 Working in a San Mateo department store as a salesgirl and devoting the money she earned to the Red Cross was the way Miss Helen Bimon, Portland Heiress, has been doing her bit. This became known today after ber departure for her home in Portland. Miss Simon came to San Mateo while her father, flustav Simon, was ill at a sanatorium and continued her work a a shopgirl after her father's death. All the time she occupied a t-5 hotel suite- JOURNAL WANT ADS PAY LABOR IS DISCUSSED AT MEETING IN PARK Several Speakers Present Views, Each From a Dif ferent Viewpoint V The mass meeting held last evening in Willson Park was well attended by friends of labor and others who were in terested in a general discussion of the tig problem. The Rev. F. T. Porter, pastor of the First Christian church, in speaking on "Tho Church and the Working Man", took the stand that the church was the best friend of labor and that the church had been from early times an advocate of the principles that are now endorsed by all laboring men. Arthur W. Lawrence, state printer, speaking on "The Attitude of the La bor Unions towards the t. VI. W. Move ment" claimed emphatically that or ganized labor was the bitter enemy of the I. W. W., and that the two organ izations had nothing in common. He told of the aims of the labor party and what it had done in tho way of reform among working men and in legislation for their benefit. Carl Gregg Doney, president of Wil lamette University, taking for the sub ject of his address, "Labor's Respon sibility in the Present Crisis," speaking for labor, proclaimed three great prop ositions: First, that the present war is just and necessary; second, declaring his intentions of doing his duty towards securing a righteous peace; third, that the teachings of Christ made the first litboT problem. Before the coming of Christ, Mr. Doney said, there was no labor problem as there was just two classes of men ihe overload and the slaves and the world accepted this con dition. But when Christ Baid God was no respector of men, new ideas were brought into the world and since that time, the struggle has been towards the equality of man. WILL ASK SECRETARY TO EXPLAIN MATTER Senator Chamberlain Wants to Know About Defective Munitions Washington, Sept. 3. Secretary of War Baker will be asked immediately to tell all the facts concerning ship ment of faulty cartridges to Porshing's troops in France, Chairman Chamber lain of the senate military affairs com mittee said to,day. Chamberlain will 'act for tho com mittee in calling Baker, not waiting for formal vote of the senate. This is tht first move in congress to probe the defective munitions situation. Chamberlain failed to reach Bakes by telephone today. He said a formal congressional investigation will not be considered until Baker's statement is at hand, as a basis for wtlon. It is probable a resolution will be presented to tho house Wednesday. Thtre was talk of such a resolution in the senate, but with Chamberlain's ac tion it is seemed unlikely at present. Before such congressional inquiry could get under way Brigadier General Crosier, chief of ordinance, will open an investigation of his own. In a let ter .to Adjutant General McCain today he recommended creation of a board of inquiry to investigate thn cause of do ftctive arms being shipped to France. ..HEFLTN SPEAKS UP (Boise, Idaho, Statesman) Congresional courtesy has apparently gone by the board, along with other cherisied (traditions that) have been lost since this 'country entered the war. Mr. Heflin, one of the Alabama congressmen, recently presented to the lower house the following indictment of some of his fellow members: "The other day one member in an other body by his objections held up for two days the nirplano bill. Would Germany have asked anything morel Another one praised the slackers and the traitors of Canada for resisting the selective draft- Would the kaiser have nsKed morcf Another has tried to dis credit Mr. Hoover before the country. And on yesterday another introduced a bill to have a referendum whether tho comander in chief should send men out upon the ocean to fight for the lib erty of this country. Would tho kaiser have had him change his tactics! "In the house a member from Illi nois introduced a bill, and it is now pending, and tho German spy system is having petitions sent to members asking that the selective draft be repealed- Another gentleman from Illi nois Mr. Britten introduced a bill to exempt all men of German blood from ! responsibility in this war and from ' fighting for the x.asr. What will that dot Why, the kaiser (says to them the people ot the I nited i States ara not with the president; Ger Imans won't fight against the father i lanil. Britten has a bill which speaks that fact. Mason is going to undo the selective draft, and they will have no army, and the senator from Georgia has introduced a bill to get every man's consent as to whether Ire will fight or not." This may be unparliamentary lan guage, but if the things Mr. Heflin charges are true it is time that the guilty men were charged with them, and it is well that the people of the country have been given such a blight ing summary of activities which, if not actually traitorous, are at the least un American. There will be a congressional elec tion next fall, and after it is over per haps we shall have a congress that will be truly representative of the Ameri can people, instead of being tainted by an alloy of members who, if they do nothing worse, are at any rate guilty of truckling to what they imagine to be the sentiments of some of their con-j stituents. 862nd WEDNESDAY SURPRISE Bleached Bath Towels 25c An excellent pure white Towel, size 22x45-inch.

Six men sleeping in the basement of tho building had a narrow escape, but were not even scratched. Tho police started an immediate in vestigation.
