Fruit Shippers
of Idaho May
Not Get Rates

Little encouragement that south
ern Idaho shippers of deciduou
fruits would be granted rates whic
would make it possible for them t
successfully compete in eastern mar
kets with north Idaho and eastern
Washington fruit growers was giyel
by F. w. Robinson, general freigh
agent of the Union Pacific, in answe
to letter from the Boise Chambe
of Commerce traffic bureau. accord
ing to information given out Wednes
day by George B. Graft, secretary.
A reduction was recently granted
for deciduous fruits from Yakima
and nearby points and the traffic
bureau asked that a similar rate be
granted south Idaho.
In replying to Mr.. Robinson Mr.
Graft says:
"Will say in this connection we
fully anticipated favorable considera-
tion on your part regarding east
bound rates on western products, be-
lieving you fully realized the hard
ship experienced on western products
thru the arbitrary advance recently
made.
AS it has been the policy of the
carriers for many years to establish
rate from southern Idaho on a
somewhat lower basis than the rate
concurrently made from the Yakima
territory, it is our right to seek the
same reduction in these rates as
granted to the Yakima territory.
Southern Idaho has always opposed
the principle of being assessed rates
found reasonable from eastern Wash
ington and western Oregon points,
believing the advantage we have in
distance should be recognized in the
rate structure.
1T is known to us that the car
riers' policy is the place the inter-
mediate territory on a broad blanket
basis, establishing from the Pacific
coast 1000 miles east. Such a prin-
ciple in rate making is vigorously
protested as being unfair and unjust
to producters more favorably stu
ated in respect to market, than
points more distant from those
markets.
IF Idaho has any advantage in
the matter of market it is that ad-
vantage of being from 500 to 700
miles nearer to the consuming sec
lion than points on the Pa.itic coast,
and we feel that it is clearly the duty

mun1ty, and he was asked to cut II
down to ten minutes. He said he
could not do justice to such a big sub.
ject in so short time, so he was
asked to wait until some of the other
matters were disposed of, and at 1e
o'clock he was given the floor. He
told the old story of how commun-
ity blocks it's town development by
sending away to the catalog houses
for goods instead of keeping that
trade at home and giving employ
ment to home people and building up
home service. He said the goods
had to be packed and made ready for
the customers somewhere, and all of
this work that is done in Chicago or
Denver is lost to Blackfoot or what
ever community is under considera-
ton; the tax on the property where
the work is done goes into the
Chicago treasury instead of the
Blackfoot treasury, and so on down
the line; the pointed out what a short
sighted policy it is to trade away
from home and build up the other
fellows community at the expense
of your own.
When he had talked half of his
thirty minutes his audience began to
get restless and Indifferent, and they
began to shoot questions at him, and
remarks such as, "But what remedy
have you to offer?" Glow are we to
cure this disease or ailment among
people?" "We knew all of those
things were true before you came
here; what can we do to prevent
these losses to the county; we can't
prevent people from doing as they
please If they want to send all their
money away and kill the whole town.
What would you have us do about
it?"
Gimmell had some kind of a pro-
position he wanted to sell to the club.
but he did not seem to have it ironed
out smooth so he could tell them lust
how to work it. He wanted to get
about a dozen commercial clubs to
act in unison on some plan of educa-
ton, and let him furnish the ideas

expenses, the purse to be met by all

great deal of care to maintain tina
kind of grounds in rainy country
and under irrigation it might not bt
practical. He suggested a com
promise, seeding both ends of the
grounds and leaving the middle part
bare for base ball and foot ball.
Ted Enlow endorsed that plan and
said people going to ball game did
not go to enjoy the scenery, but to
see, some sport, and he was for the
unseeded ball grounds.
Professor Bloom said that for foot
ball it would not do to have any
dikes, however low or rounded, for
any variation in the ground was
pretty sure to result in sprained
ankles and broken legs, and one leg
was worth more than all the sod in
town.
H. F. Hoffman said he was for base
ball. He did not go out to the
grounds to sit and look at some green
grass. He went to see a game. He
had taken stock in the fair grounds
SO they might be preserved for
sports, not for city park to look at.
If they had solicited him for money
for park to be fenced in and kept
green he might not have taken stock.
1t was all right to decorate the front
with flowers as Trego suggested, and
to decorate the city park with every
thing beautiful in nature, but he,
wanted an arena for sports and for
any kind of sports which people
might desire.
w. H. Scott said he was on the
fair board when they decided to turn
it over to the county for fair
grounds and for sports and for stock
sales and everything of that kind,
and he did not want it put into such
condition that it would be unsuitable
or too nice for what it was designed
Tor and for what the county took it
over for. He did not want signs put

| dorsed the plan and were ready to
go in on it, as proven by letter
which he displayed. When he read
the letter, they merely said they were
ready to cooperate with him If he
could get the other commercial clubs
to unite for the project. Two or
three men in the audience said that
the letter had String attached to
it in the word "if," and that they
were safe in making that kind of a
promise, because there was no
danger of his getting anything
definite mapped out and agreed upon
by the other Commercial clubs. When
he had talked 35 minutes the watch
was drawn on him and the meeting
broke up, Chairman Kennedy an
nouncing that these meeting are held
weekly, and everybody is invited to
attend and be heard if they had any
thing to suggest, and they were at
all times welcome to the headquart-
ers and at the meetings.

Berlin, Sept. 30-(The Associated Press)-American. England and Ger man banking interests have begun ne- gotiations looking toward cooperation in the rehabilitation Of Russia through the financing of industrial enterprises in the Soviet republic, according to information which has reached in terested commercial circles here.
 The proposed assistance would not be based upon recognition of the present government of Russia but tion that the Russian government would respect any contracts which might be made" one of the represen- tatives of London house, which is promoting the movement, declared. He added that negotiations were be- gun only *'after it was established that the Soviet government was no longer red but had swung to the right, and was aiming at Something g essentially the same as the goal of other republican nations."

Blocs draw no party lines. Both Republicans and Democrats belong to thcm, and all are welcome.
 Just now the biggest ard ID ost pow erful of the blocs is the Agricultural bloc, composed of some 30 senators and greater number of representa- lives who hail from agricultural states. Both Democrats and Repub- licans are in it. They sacrifice their political alignment at the necessary time tinn ffeotin for the vanesment of legisla- al projects. Theats of party leaders have so far been unavailinG. Mem oers of the bloc, Democrats and Re- pubHcans alike, have pursued their own sweet way whenever matters af- fecting agriculture are up, and party leaders have been in a quandary.
 SembIance of Soviet System
 F It has been pointed out that the formation of blocs along industrial and occupatio aal lines is closely akin +o legislative Sovietism. The Rus sian political system embraces repre- . sentation along these class lines, rather than along geographical lines.

JAP GEN ERAL FAVORS
 DISARMAM MENT

Copyright, 1921, by the Internation-

 Tokio, Sept. 3O.-Need of recog- nizing the particular position of par ticular nations in all disarmament discussion was emphasized by Lieut.. of War of Japan, in an exclusive dis armament interview granted Inter- national News Service.
 General Yamanahi prefaced his re- marks by calling attention to his be- lief that the American President and Secretary of State were most sincere in calling the Washington meeting. He expressed high hopes for the out come of the conference but set forth forward several points which he said would make difficult the settling of all disarmament questions in one meeting.
 "Defenses of nations must be rec ognized as having the right of con- sideration,'' said General Yabanashi. vidual problems and for this reason defense can be based on population, on coast line, on wealth or any of these abstract points.
 '"The disarmament conference at Washington will find it difficult to set tie all these points at one meeting. General points may be taken up at the November conference, but de- tails, subjects that affect particular nations and have to do with the act ua1 reduction of armies and the like, will be very difficult to settle at this first meeting It is quite possible a later meeting may be held and at this tions affected, in particular parts of the world, may be taken up.

IMMIGRATION LAW
 ENACTED BY MEXICO
Southern Republic Sets Price on Aliens to Offset Labor Scarcity and Check Thrush.

Mexico City, Sept. 30.-Because Mexico already has mu1titudes of poor people the, government wants no ad- dttions from foreign lands. For this reason a decision has been reached that immigrants from Europe must possess 1000 pesos, or $500. to be ad- mitted into Mexico.
 This is to prevent an thrush of pow erty-stricker families which, instead Of developing farm land and adding to the wealth of the nation, would immediately enter into competition with Mexican wage earners-
 A number of colonization schemes will be affected by this new require ment that newcomers must have $500. There are plans on foot to bring into Mexico great numbers of immigrants from Russia, Germany. Austria, Italy and other countries, in the manner in which hordeS were shipped to the United States in former years.
 But Mexico is not like the United States It does not need and couid not receive even a small part of what was once the annual inflow into the United States of men and women who good appetites and immediate need of work.
 Some hard experiences have guid ed the Mexican government to it's new policy. Arrivals who have come for the purpose of forming the "farming g more than groups of wage earners, with no thought of engaging in agri- culture. These have scattered to var iouS cities and have become competi- tors of Mexican workers at a time when work has been scarce in Mexi- co. One party of 500 German farm ing colonists did not proceed further than Mexico City. Numbers of the farmers came to Mexico with the intention of seeking work at Tampico having heard tales that enormous wages were paid there.
 It is said th:4t more recent arrivals from Germany are actually going up- on the land and that some prosperous colonies have been formed.

 France keeps an army on the bor- der of France and Spain. Suppose after the conference, France and powers represented at Washington decide on the reduction of these bor- der guards.

which would not only yield them profit, but would help to stabilize the uncertain economical situation there.
 Certain Russians here who have displayed lively interest in these ne- gotfations assent there is Q possibility they will succeed regardless of wheth- CT the present Russian government stands or falls, although it is admit ted that at this time the only result of the movement has been to secure the promise of a number of individu- al, but strong, banking houses in each of the three countries to support the plan if good evidence is offered that the Soviet government will give the foreign f1nancfers a free hand.
 "A number of foreign banks and particularly English concerns, already have placed large sums at the dis posal of the Russians and also have sold them much merchandise, in many instances extending credit for as long as five years" said 8 German industrialist, who is interested in nu- merous Russian movements.
 "Other fore2gn concerns have fiatly declined to have any commerce with the Russian Soviet and the actions of these concerns have been widely ad- vertised. The fact of the matter 1s and many financiers see it, that whether the present Russian govern ment prevails or not, vast fortunes are waiting in Russia for the men who ultim a;tely must develop the countrys latent resources, as well as rehabilitate the present rundown in duStrieS"
