NEW YORK, Sept. 11.-Investiga-
tors who are looking for the guilty
party" responsible for the high cost
of living in the United States will new

Wall street financiers.
A correspondent of the United
Press interviewed several of the big
gest bankers in the country to ask
them for their ideas on the high cost
of living. Though the financial men
refused to allow their names used,
they were free in their opinions.
The general concensus is that the
man who started the war is response

''The present situation is the natur-
al one after five years of destruction
and non-production," explained one
prominent Wall street man. 'The
world is short of food and clothing
and supplies of all kinds. America
is short because it has shipped SO
much to Europe, and because it is not
producing enough
High prices are the result of a
shortage on the market. Legislation
and agitation will not lower prices
permanently or to any extent. As
soon as we begin to produce more, SO
that the surplus on the market causes
competition for sale, prices will come
down. Until we produce more. and |
until Europe produces more, prices |
will remain high.

10 YEAR OLD BOY KILLS
8 POINT BUCK; BRINGS
1T IN ON WHEELBARR0W

ROSEBC1tG, Sept. 11.-FIoyd EN-
mitt, 12-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
E. f. Emmitt, of Umpqua, succeeded
in landing a three-point buck which
would make many a local sportsman
sick with envy. Master Floyd was
hunting squirrels with his '22 speciaP'
when he saw the deer about 20 yards
from him. Never hesitating a minute
he pumped three shots into him,
which knocked him down. These were
not sufficient, however, and the ami
NAL was soon on its feet and able to
hold it's own with the dog. At this
critical moment the youthful hunters
gun failed to pull the empty shells
from the barrel. which made it ne
cessary for him to pry them out with
his jack knife. After firing three more
shots with the ilI-working gun, he
became too excited to finish his job
and, running about 200 yards where
he could call to the house for help. he
summoned his 16-year-old brother
and sister. formerly Ruby Emmitt, of
this city, to his rescue.
Bring the butcher knife, quick!"
he called.
SEEING tne ueSlreo Wedpohs ihS SlS-
ter and little brother ran to his res
cue. When they reached the scene
the deer was patiently waiting and
holding the dog at bay. Floyd's
nerves were too unsteady to shoot off
hand again, so resting his gun on his
sisters shoulder and firing his last |
TWO cartridges, he succeeded in land |
ing his big game.
The hunting party dressed the deer +.
and being unable TO load it on TO a
horse brought it in in wheel bar
row. The bucks hide was well rid
lied with shots. The animal dressed {
100 pounds and is one of the incest
seen n this part of the country for
some time. AS Floyd expresses him
self: 81 didn't have the buck ager' a
bit until after the third shot" 4
