TIE JAPANESE QUESTION

We are glad to note that the Forum,
as recently organizediby the Congrega.
tiOnal church, will give the japanese
question, as it pertains generally and
to our valley. close study this win
ter We are in harmony with the ad-
vice to members OF the anti-Japanese
Association, as we'll as all others, tC
indulge in no acts or expressions of ir-
responsibility that will create friction
between permanent japanese residents
and whites. Such friction is unneces.
sarv. They are here to stay and their
qualities outweigh any faults that may
be found with them. But We cannot
countenance a further increase from
the outside of race, however admir-
able may be their qualities, which can
not be assimilated into the American
body polite. We are at point where
the question must be met frankly by
all of US. We must cease to temporize.
We must understand and our existing
Japanese population must be made to
comprehend the situation - likewise
the government of Japan, if it be con-
cerned. And it has been indicated that
it is.
We have noted that some Of the
newspapers of Oregon. where a Japan
ese resident is a novelty, are prone,
apparently. to treat the Japanese ques-
ton without seriousness. We would
ask. that they inform themselves. 1t
is not alone our problem here in Hood
River. We quote the following from
the Oregon Voter of November /
1t is stated by the most representa-
tive commercial publication-of Seattle,
Business Chronicle, that Japan inter
fered with California's attempt to han
die this question by transferring its
commerce from the Port of San Fran.
cisco to the Port of Seattle. Much
evidence is adduced to sustain the state
ment. If it is true. that Japan is in
ACi III fhIiltiCld uOlHCcllt ftid-
tions problems by boycotting or reward
ing competing Pacific Coast ports, that
truth must give all Americans cause to
pause and think.
The Voter ventures no concrete sug-
gestion as to what course should be
pursued. But it insists that no other
consideration is so paramount as that
of protecting our America from the
introduction of another racial problem
akin to that now fastened upon the
South by the commercial introduction
of the negro two centuries ago. And it
insists that now the great war is over,
it is proper time to give serious atten.
tion to any legislation that may be
proposed on the subject. No hasty ac-
tion should be takeu. The best advices
that can be received should be OBJ
tanned. The problem is one great
enough to command the careful thought
Of our ablest statesmen. 1t is one
which no American on the Pacific coast
can permit hlmself to ignore.

Opium is the dried Juice Of the white
poppy, a flower that grows In many
parts of Asia. A few days after the
flowers have fallen off the plants men
go through the fields in the afternoon
and make little cuts in the poppy head.
Out of these cuts a milky Juice oozes'
which dries into brown, sticky paste.
Iaery morning the men go through the
Delds again and scrape Off this paste
which they nut into jars. Later on
It is made into half-pound balls and
then packed for shipment.

PACKARD BOUND
OVER FOR TRIAL
Preliminary Hearing Brings Out
Few Additional Facts on
Shooting

Elmer Packard, charged with. the
murder of J. P. Wells at the latter's
home three miles east of Caldwell "a
to the district court by D. D. Hargcr,
justice of the peace, Saturday morn
ing. Packard did not ask privilege OF
obtaining bail, expressing a wish to
remain in Jail until the case can be
heard before Judge Ed L. Bryan.
No further additions of consequence
were made to the story of the shoot
ing as it was originally recounted.
Belief that some evidence might. be i'll
troduced shedding light on the scalp
wounds inflicted on Wells and which
DR.. Farrar determined as not due to
bullets, was not realized. Speculation
is common in regard to the cause OF
those wounds and popular opinion
holds the thought that some alter
cation must have preceded the shoot
ing affray.
Causes Not Told.
Mrs. Wells, mother of Packard, was
asked by Curtis Hayden if she had
anything to say relating to the causes
leading up to the shooting affair
After consideration, she said that she
did not care to make statement at
that time. Since it was not essential
for such evidence to be introduced
at the preliminary hearing, she was
not pressed to answer questions re-
lating to that phase of the trouble.
Wells hat, taken from his head in
the yard after his death, was smeared
with blood with no exterior indica-
tons of having been upon his head
when the wounds we're inflicted. 1t
was not cut at any place. DR.. Farrar
testified at the coroner's inquest that
the wounds were probably not caused
by bullets.
Boy Testifies.
An eight year old son of Wells tes-
titled that upon returning from school
Tuesday evening he had heard two
shots. Upon arriving at home, he
found his father dead in the yard.
Mrs. Wells related that her son,
Packard, had come to the Wells home
Sunday for a visit and was upon the
point Of leaving when the shooting
took place. Mrs. Wells had returned
to the house to obtain some money
that Packard had forgotten and foi
that reason was not a witness to the
tragedy. Nothing additional that was
new was added to the story and the
causes relating to the shooting will
undoubtedly not come out before the
trial before the district court.

SUPPLY
CAUSES WORRY
LOCAL GROCER WARNS VIC
TINS THAT SWEETS
FAMINE LOOMS.

That Caldwell people should not
allow their sugar supply to become
low this winter is the warnino given
by Luther Mitchell, of local grocery
store.
People do not generally realize it, ,
said Mr.. Mitchell "but there exists an
acute shortage of sugar and it will
likely be felt locally at any time.
Recent information from Seattle in
dicates that the populace of that city
is on sugar ration more stringent
than ever prevailed during the war.
Retailers are doing out the precious
stuff in one two and three pound
patches. The larger grocery stores
are being delivered no more than
three sacks of sugar at an order to
accommodate their retail trade and
the smaller ones are getting one sack.
Conditions in Portland are just as
bad" continued Mr.. Mitchell. 81 un-
derstand that rs cents worth is the
maximum amount permitted one GUS
toner. In my mind, il will only be a
question of short time until we will
be facing the same situation here. |
have heard that in Nampa they are
already talking of the advisability of
establishing ration basis for the dis
tribution of sugar. That is getting
rather close to home. Only the fore
sight of some OF our local grocers
makes the present supply in Caldwell
sufficient to meet ordinary demands
though I have been assured that some
of the local stores are having diff
Guilty supplying all Of their orders"
Two Reasons.
Asked for the reason for the pres
ent shortage. Mr.. Mitchell stated that
at least two causes might be given for
the situation.
August statistics showed that
America had the smallest amount OF
sugar on hand since sugar statistics
have been compiled, and the entire
world is far short in its supply. In
addition to that, American people, uu-
accustomed to sugar shortages which
they voluntarily submitted to during
the course of the war, have taken ad-
vantage Of their privilege to use il to
their hearts content and are making
unusual inroads on the available sup
ply. In one sense, those people are
like children who have been denied
