What a Noted Divine
Says Of Prohibition.

Rev. {. H. Parkhurst one OF the mos
noted divines in the United States. or for
that matter in the world, and who has
carried on crusade against vice in New
York and other eastern cities for the past
twenty years. the Pastor Of Madison
Square Presbyterian Church, New York
City, and the president Of the Association
for the Prevention Of Crime, wires {. 4.
Sbarboro, San Francisco under date Of
October 20, 1919, the following:
81 am amazed at the possible prohibi-
tory action of California touching
the matter of the manufacture, sale and
transportation of wine. Such acton would
be a short-sighted contribution to the
cause of sound and wholesome temper
ance. People are going to drink and they
are going to drink something that has
measure of stimulus in it and to let them
drink light wines is one of the surest
means of preventing their drinking heavy
whiskey. know that, from having lived
IN wine producing countries where wine
is freely used by old and young and in
toxication exceedingly rare. Tying man
up too strongly in sumptuary matters
means that in course of time he will break
his bonds and the last estate of that man
will be worse than the first. 1t is Un-
american and immoral to dictate to a man
what his conduct shall be in ma tiers that
are not intrinsically evil"
No one can successfully contend the.
DR.. Parkhurst does not know what he is
talking about, as his work among the
slums of New York and other cities has
brought him into contact with every class
and form of crime and the cause. No one
can contend that Dr. Parkhurst is in league
with the saloon men. or that he is an ad-
vocate of the saloons in any way. He be-
lieves that more harm may be done by the
unlicensed use of low grade alcoholic
drinks

NV. FRUIT EXCHANGE
TO MOVE TO SEATTLE

With the new year the Northwestern
Fruit Exchange will have headquarters
at Seattle. The general offices in Port,
land will he closed and the staff of 81
persons will go to the new headquar.
ters.
The reasons prompting the North.
western Fruit Exchange to change
headquarters are that its greatest ton.
mage of fruit shipped comes from We.
nstchee Valley and Yakima Valley,
and the assured rapid increase of pro.
duction of apples and peaches from
these Washington districts determined
the management to have headquarters
nearer these valleys Of large produc.
tion. Moreover. the Offices OF the chiei
executives have always been in Seat
tie.
"The prospects are that the fruit

leys will increase more rapidly thar

and Rogue River Valley. in Oregon,

but we expect considerable increase

Market conditions affecting Oregon
apples ought to improve in the Middle
West markets before long, "said vii.
mer Sieg. Producers of long keeping
varieties will fare better than those
who have grown only the kinds which
must be sold before the winter is hall
gone. The more fortunate grower will
not get the prices they should have re
ceived had il not been for the pool
demand from Europe and oversnpply il
the Atlantic states, but but they will
not suffer any losses. Another unfav
orable influence on the apple market
this season is the record.breaking or
ange crop. When apple growers learl
to provide for proper storage in thei
orchards and thereby aviod oversupply
ing the market, they will fare bette
in the way of prices.

DOCK APPROPRIATION
REPORT FAVORABLE

Secretary Ravlin. of the Commercial
club, has received a telegram from N.
j. Sinnott, representative in congress
for the second Oregon district, who
states that the house committee on riv-
ers and harbors has reported favorably
on an appropriation for surveyFof the
mouth of Hood river looking toward
the construction of public dock. The
Commercial club began the agitation
for government support the first of the
year, and Representative Sinnott made
every effort TO cooperate with them.
While Hood River can maintain a
very convenient dock at the foot of
First street during the high water per-
iod, conditions have been growing worse
each year during the low water period.
A bar seems forming at the mouth of
the Hood river and river boats have
had difficulty in landing at the present
location on the east side of the stream.
A public dock will not only be of the
greatest benefit to river shipping,
which bids fair to increase with the
opening of the Panama canal, but il
will be of inestimahle aid to the ferry
systems plying between Hood River
and points on the North Bank.

HOLIDAY CHEER IN HOOD RIVER
Days Required to Handle Heavy Parcel
Post Mail-Fruit Association Distrib-
utes Funds for Holiday Purchasing

Santa Claus has already been abroad
in Hood River. The Philanthropie COM
mittee of. the Woman's Club has visited
the homes Of the poor of the city and
community and have left useful gifts
of food and clothing.
And not a boy or girl in the entire
valley has failed.to be on the alert for
old Kris kringle athe past few days.
Baby lips have prattled about the be-
neticence of Sanity and the speed with
which his reindeer, Dancer and Pranc-
er, travel to reach the home Of good
boys and girls. Little boys have been
leading meritorious lives, the expec-
fancy of Santa's commendation of good
boys has been more effective in results
than New Years resolutions will be,
and kindling boxes have been filled and
the chores attended to with alacrity.
Trading has been good at the Hood
River stores during the past few
weeks. Because of the comparatively
short residence of a large number Of
people and their relatives in other
parts of the country, many gifts have
been received and. transmitted Through
the mails. For the spast week. lines
may have been seen almost any day at
the parcel post window of the local
postoffice. And the burdens .of pack
ages for city delivery men have been
so great that the transfer wagon of A.
r. Crump 4 Son had TO be called in.
The wagon made its first Santa Claus
trip Saturday morning. IL was loaded
with hundreds of packages for all parts
Of the city.
However, Postmaster Lucas says that
the parcel post business has not been
heavy this year as last holiday sea-
son. Still it has been necessary to call
for an appropriation for the purpose of
employing assistance for the rural car
riers. On Tuesday morning Ole Mel
son, carrier onfrural route No. !, en-
pioycd his brother-in-law, who with his
wagon assisted him in distributing
Christmas presents to the people ofsthe
East Side.
For the purpose of providing the
growers affiliated with them with
Christmas funds. the Fruit Growers
Exchange made a distribution of 10
cents per box on Spitzenburgs and
Newtowns. The Exchange mad previ-
ously distributed as much as 80 cents
per box on pools of early apples.
The Apple Growers Association has
also made distributions of funds to its
growers, composed of majority sof
the orchardists of the valley. Up to
the present time 20 cents per box has
been distributed on the apples deliv-
cred in time to enter the early pools.

PORT TRADE BETTER

However, tomorrow everything will
be quiet around the Association build
