HIGHWAY NEEDS
WORK SAYS HOWARD

Frank r. Howard, local superintend-
ent of the Pacific Telephone & Tele-
graph Co who uses the Highway in
this county more frequently perhaps
than any other individual in the state,
declares that the route between this
city and the terminus of the pavement
at Cascade Locks can be put in good
shape by the use of scraper at points,
the removal of debris brought down by
last winters storms and by the filling
of numerous chuckholes. Mr.. Howard
says that one of the worst points is on
the long grade between Wyeth and
Cascade Locks, but he says this can be
remedied by better bitches and scrap
ers
at will not take much work." says
Mr.. Howard, ''to make every tourist
over the road booster instead of a
knocker. We need to devote more
money in perfecting drainage along
the route"
Mr.. Howard is an exponent of the
roadmaster system.

Because of the car shortage that pre-
walls over the country, preventing the
receipt of stocks for the new mercan-
tile establishment the ]. c. Penny Co.,
which had planned on opening local
branch store on April /, has been
forced to postpone the opening of the
place of business until some time the

has come here from The Dalles to take
charge of the new store, land we are

JAPANESE MAKE OF.
FER OF ASSISTANCE

The japanese population of the val
ley, numbering approximately 200, ex-
presses its moral support Of the United
States lin the matter of the German
crisis, and an offer of whatever aid
they may be able to render as individu-
ais or collectively is made to the state
or federal government. A resolution,
embodying an endorsement of the ac-
tion of President Wilson in meeting the
aggression of Germany's unrestricted
submarine warfare and the offer of aid
consistent with their status as sympa-
thetic residents under the protection of
the American flag, has been adopted by
the Japanese Farmers Association of
the Hood River valley. The members
of the farmers association and M. va
sui have expressed a feeling of keen
resentment against the German gov
ernment because of the intrigues in
which Pacific coast states were offered
the Flowery Kingdom for participation
by Japan in war against the United
States as an ally of the Kaiser.
The Japanese Farmers" Association,
with a membership of about so land
owners and tenant farmers, has been
organized for the purpose of educating
its members to the needs of applying
local methods of horticulture. Officers
of the new organization, C. Hirasawa
and S. Ishikawa, will cooperate with
the experiment station and the man.
agements of cooperative sales agencies.
The society will not make any recon-
mendations to its members as to sales
organization affiliations, but its men,
bers are made up of shippers through
all of the local valley agencies. 1t is
stated that the Association will urge
its members to keep their money in
local banks instead of following former
customs of depositing it in San Fran
cisco and Seattle banks or sending it to
Japan.
