CAlNERE BUSY THIS
WEEK PACKING PEARS
FROM ALL OVER STATE

A visit to the Salem canneries this
morning shows the Bartlett pear as the
big idea for the time being, with several
hundred women hustling them into cans.
Probably there are from 80 to 40 ar
loads of the fruit now ripening in the
storage rooms and as many more are on
the way, some Is to 20 ears coming from
the Rogue River valley. OF necessity
the canning stock is Of medium size ana
to all appearances the quality is up to
the standard of other seasons. 1t be-
comes more and more evident that the
carly estimates on the crop were too
conservative. Along with the pears 60
thousands of crates of evergreen black
lberrics--the fruit which few years ago
was treated as a pest and joke. It is
now coming in by the ton and has gain
ed such prestige among Gamers and
shippers that it ranks close to the logan
berry. There is an outside demand for
every pound that can be picked and re-
ports from other points in the valley go
to show that it is proving a most valu-
able crop. One cannery has an order
for $4,000 worth of the fruit from one
company in the middle west. The rul-
ing price is about cents a pound,
which means larger margin of profit
to the growers than was realized ON To-
ganberries, since the evergreen requires
less culture.
Along with these two fruits, the can
neries are still handling string beans in
limited quantities. The hot, dry wealth
er has cut short the crop on the uplands,
but an immense tonnage viii come from
the Lake Labish district and other bot
tom and the local plants expects to work
on the different varieties until the first
Of October.

LONDON INTEREST IN
PEACE PACT REVIVED
President Wilson S Testimony
To Senate Committee Is
Cause.

London, Aug. 22.-(United Press. j.
Revived interest in the league Of ma
tions and in the proceedings at the
peace conference has resulted here from
President Wilson's testimony before
the senate foreign relations committee.
The allies conccalment of secret trea-
ties strengthened Wilson'S moral posi-
ton, says the Manchester Guardian,
which wonders why the president did
not use his position more fully. The pa
per supposes he was forced to make a
difficult choice between the acceptance
of some very unfavorable point or the
possible breaking up of the peace cor
ference. 1t hopes the price of ali these
concessions, paid in return for the
league Of nations, will not be lost.
The Daily Graphic, commenting on
Wilson IS conference with the senators,
declares there is one aspect with regard
TO the difficulty over Article K which
should weigh heavily on America. Had
it not been for the endurance and sac
rifice of the allies, the editor declares

NUMBERING
POPULACE OF UPPER
S|LESIA is CHARGE
BY Carl d. Groat
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

Berlin, Aug. 21.-Declaring that Ger
many had resorted to massacre in Upper
Silesia in order to establish her power
before the plebiscite was held, the Pol.
ish secretary of war, Yorfanti, pleaded
today that the allies send commission
to organize the country and preserve
order.
s'The Germans are killing peaceful
citizens in Upper Silesia,' Yorfanti ss-
serted. Travellers from that district
told me that sixteen persons were exc
cuted at Gleiwitz in one day without a
trial. The impression is that the Ger
mans are trying to shoot prominent
Poles so asto disorganize the country
and have an excuse to massacre the pop
ulation, thus improving Germany's
chances i'll the plebiscite.
Yorfanti declared that Hocrsing, Ger
man commander in Upper Silesia, was
we'll aware that Minister of War Noske
was responsible for introducing martial
law against the Poles in order to aid the
German movement for favorable pie
biscitc.
"At Myslowitz, /. Yorfanti said,
"seven workers. were killed while
awaiting their pay. Peaceful citizens
also were killed at Zalez and were or
dered to raise their hands and then
were shot. Near Rybnik woman was
shot in the back while searching for
her husband.
The miners strike, in which 200,-
900 men are participating, is q monster
protest Of all the inhabitants against
the German administration. There no
bolshevism in Silesia but we must de-
mand that the entente send military
commission Immediately to install q
Joint German-Polish administration.
The allies must exercise their authority
to withdraw the German troops, raise
the siege and halt the massacres.
"If the entente nations will not
send troops to pacify the district, let
them give a mandate to the Poles. T.
1t is believed likely that the Polish
delegation will leave for Warsaw TO-
morrow.

PRESIDENT TOUR
AGAIN FOREMOST IN
treaty DISCUSSION
Wilson Still Considering Dir
ect Appeal To People In
Fight For Ratification OF
Pact Urfamended.

Washington, Aug. 22-(United Press)
President Wilson'S proposed tour of
the county was again coming. to the
front in treaty discussions today, as a
result of developments since Tuesday,
when the president met the senate for
eign relations committee.
Reports coming mostly from the capi-
tol that the president trip had been
abandoned are denied at the White
House, although it is admitted that
plans are still indefinite.
Developments have not been such as
to encourage the belief that the presi-
dent would be able to get the treaty
and league covenant ratified without
an appeal direct to the people, it is
pointed out by the president s support
ers. Some of the developments cited
are.
The White House conference so far
apparently has changed no senator g at
titude toward the treaty, although ad-
ministration supporters are still conf
dent that results will be to the treaty IS
benefit.
The Pittsman resolution, embodying
reservations to be adopted separate
from the ratification act, which the
president has indicated is as far as he
is at present willing to 60, toward q
compromise, has been pigeonholed.
The senate foreign relations commit,
tee has decided to 60 ahead with hear.
ings that will delay the treaty, despite
the declaration by the president that
the country cannot get back to normal
before the pact is ratified.
This argument-that normal condi
tions and lower prices await peace--is
regarded as the one the president is
most likely to stress, if he goes on the
aproposed tour, s.ss.s...xs .,s,.s.;V ~

New York, Aug. l9-This country
is passing through one of the great, II
not the greatest, crises in its history
Though far distant from the seat Of
war, and much less injured than any
of tho combatants, we are feeling the
economic results almost as sharply. an
they. The very fact that we suffered
less means that we must help more;
hence in the work of reconstruction our
burdens are actually much heavier than
we had ever expected them to be. We
have not only been obliged to feed
Europe more freely than usual with
our spare grain and meat; but now
that peace is here we are also called
upon to suddenly furnish immense quan
titles of cotton, copper, petroleum and
steel products, in order to fill up the
void created by five years of intense
destruction. Europe's demands are not
easy to measure. In addition to those
Just mentioned we have been called
upon to provide ships. coal, credit and
many other things formerly obtained
from other sources. Such exceptional
demands forced high prices in every
direction, and the urgency Of these re-
quirements enables labor to insist upon
higher and higher wages Domestic ex-
travagance is also an important elc-
ment in high prices. Whether these
movements have reached their climax
or not depends upon how far the de
mand has been met. When buyers cease
striving for goods, because either sat.
isfied or exhausted, then the advance
will surely end and dullness ensue un.
til demand receives fresh stimulus
from new inquiries or lower prices. As
long as these conditions last, il is use.
less to expect industrial stability. Re
turn to the normal will require many
months of large product and hard work

1t was intimated that they had un-
der consideration the reply to the pro-
test of the Mexican government and
the request that troops of the Eighth
cavalry sent across the Mexican bor-
der in pursuit of the bandits be with
drawn Immediately.
Lansing was expected to forward the
reply to the Mexican government to-
day. The state department will ex-
plain the necessity for sending an ex-
nedition after the bandits who, this
country peiie,es, can be captured by
the troops on the scene.
Mexican press dispatches received in
Washington today indicate that the
general public is not alarmed over the
present situation. The war department
today was informed that army air
planes and border patrol cavalry are
searching for the two aviators, Second
Lieutenant Waterhouse and Pilot Con
nelly who disappeared Wednesday
near the southern California border.
The course of the aviators was prae-
ticaliy parallel to anu over the Mexi-

may have landed in Mexico and suf-
