' : Open Forum g vf vu i ui mil Salem, Oregon, July 6, 1918. An open letter to Bishop Mat thew Simpson Hughes: Dear Bishop: Four weeks ago a public letter addressed to you charged the Sunday newspaper with being an abom inable nuisance, and the republican partv with being " an hypocritical, un Godly old liquor barty, over forty years behind the times, ruled by li quor and tobacco." I boldly renew both charges. To me these seem to. be vital and irrepressible issues of vast and immediate importance. Aro you a doubter! Respectfully, Wm. N. Taft.

Thursday, Friday, Saturday LIBERTY THEATRE A "fanay" Jsb ? m PRUNE SITUATION AIL M THE AIR Senators Wire What The War Department .Wants But Nothing Definite A telegram from Senator Charles H. McNary and also one from Senator Chamberlain was received this morn ing relative to the unsettled prune situation in which it is stated that the government will take 2K,000,000 pounds of prunes and soon release the remain der for civilian trade. While) on the face of the two tele grams everything looks lovely, prune packers say this morning that every thing is still up in the air and that it seemed as if the food administration was doing its best to make the prune situation in the Willamette valley as hard on the growers and packers 'as possible. The wire from Senator McNary to the Drager Frnit Co. and the Salem Fruit Union is as follows: "Food ad ministration advises me that 10,000, 000 pounds of 40-50 's commandeered on agreed basis; of 814 cents in 25 pound lots. Instructions for shipping issues immediately. Rest of crop except 18, 000,000 pounds that go. to the allies, can go to civilian trade." The telegram from Senator Cham berlain received by August Hnckestein this morning reads: "War department and food administration have made allotments and given orders to take care of 28,000,000 pounds .. Oregon prunes and release balance of crop for commercial purposes, if those orders are not received promptly advise with Mr. Ayer, food administrator at Port land." Now the fact if, notwithstanding these two telegrams packers are up in the air worse than ever and are ab solutely doing nothing. No packer knows how much he will be called on as his proportion of the 28,000,000 pounds and until there is some defi nite anformation just what the govern ment will take, they are obliged to lay down and await some definite de cision by the federal food administra tion. On the strength of the two tele grams, there is not a box of prunes moving. To appreciate the situation of the packers, it mnst be remembered that since early in the season the food ad ministration has been issuing orders that have contused things in the val ley. The first order wa July 15 when the packers were told to purchase 50- 60 sizes from the farmers but sell all other sizes. Contracts were then made (for all sizes excepting the 50-60 run, I Then came orders' to hold the 40-50 sizos, and then a few weeks later came the order to hold everything. Later came the telegram permitting pack,ca to sell 30 s and larger end DO s and smaller, but a no car lot shipment ari) made in these sizes, the order was of no benefit whatever. Now. until the packers know what the food administration really wants and how much each must supply tof will be nothimr'doina to release the situation either for the packer grower. RICATION COMPANY LOSSES ON APPEAL Portland Concern Has No Prospect Securing Water For Paisley Project By an opinion of the supreme court, written by Justice Johns and handed down today, the Portland Irrigation company and Ncrtthwest . Townsito company loco all chance of obtaining water from the ('hewaiii'as river for the Paisley irrigation project, which in cludes 12,000 acres of land in Lake county. The decision adheres to a former op inion of tho supremo court dismi-sHing the appeal of the two companies on the ground that all tho parties in interest ' when the question of water rights in tho (hewauean river was before the circuit court fur Lake county were not served with notice of apcnl. The two companies had appealed from the decree of Judgo Bernard Daly of the circuit court which allot ted so much water to the t'hewaucan Land & Cattle comjiony and other claimants that none was left for the irrigation project.
