Insurance Man Says
Portland Prospers

when times tighten In other
lines OF business. tho insurance
man is more likely to find ears open
to his arguments and hands ready
TO sign policy applications than
when business is expanding" said
J. NJ. Day. manager of tho Ore
gon district for the New York Life
Insurance company. who has been
here visiting the LOCAL agents, d. W.
Gregory and r. L. Burke. Mr.. Day
left yesterday for Ashland.
Because OF this peculiar condi-
tion. Mr.. Day said that his business
had shown no decline In revenue.
Portland Is prospering. he said.
and is one OF the few cities that has
not seriously felt tho postwar
slump. The railways running into
the city have agreed to start i'm
mediately to spend $4,000. 900 on
terminal yards and the 100000
union depot will be built at once.
Besides releasing a lot OF money
for circulation In Portland. these
projects shew the confidence OF the
railway heads in the future Of the
city and state. said Mr.. Day. and
reflect the general feeling that
prosperity and progress have not
been retarded in the general read
justment.

OF the bug is made possible by the
fact that this species are strong

The second action taken is the
Telling Of the infested timber con-
tanning the beetles in the late spring

The next step taken is to have the

lie useless TO try to burn the tree

Big Appropriation Pending
United States Senator McNery on
June Is OF this year introduced sen-
ate bill 2os4. making appropriations
for tho prevention OF timber from
insect infestations on reserved and
unteserved public lands in Oregon
and California while a companion
bill was introduced In the house Of

CONGRESSMAN Sinnott. The bills
provide for an appropriation OF
100000 to be Immediately avail
able for the fiscal year ending June
80. 1922. to enable the secretary
of agriculture TO prevent further
loss Of timber from insect infesta-
tions within the national forests of
Oregon and California. Also tho
sum of 900 for the same fiscal
period to enable the secretary OF
interior to work either independ-
emily or In cooperation with the sec
retary OF agriculture to prevent
further losses from this bug pest,
on Indian reservations or United
States lands whose titles was re-
vested under the provisions OF the
act OF June 0. 1916. also on un-
reserved lands in Oregon and Cali
fornia.
This appropriation carries
clause whereby the owners OF pine

Will be abated, either in accordance

extent that the United States hold

HARD TIMES PSYCHOLOGY

After all, hard times is more
Imaginary than real, more OF men
tai than a physical condition. There
is more money in the country to-
day than ever before In the
worlds history for the mints each
year coin millions. and very little is
actuaaly lost or destroyed.
why should people hide their
money away and refuse to invest
it? The answer is fear, fear. Many
men who would risk their lives In
combat with an enemy. get scared
mt the rumor OF "hard times" or
panic" and sit on their boarded
treasure tighter than an old hen
on three eggs. n fear were re-
moved. they would make invest
ments and put their money into cir
oulation as In normal times. and
times would, in fact, be normal be-
cause Of IL. II all the money hoard
ed away In this country were In
vested in legitimate enterprises.
every concern from the bootblaek
stand TO the million dollar bank
would experience a veritable boom.
Suppose one of our embryotic oil
wells should develop a gusher TO-
morrow: how the money would
come out OF Kidding and be clam
oring for investment. even In Wild
cat securities! Times would, In
fact, be no better. but the mental
attitude would be changed, moth
ing more. II this psychology. this
mental condition would function
normally-in other words II the
human element OF fear were elimin-
ated--there would be no hard times
and no boom times. but the chan
nels OF commerce would flow Rs
evenly as the Japan current.

Judge C. D. Newell this morning to
spend the remainder of his days in the

When Eddins was asked if he had
any reason why the sentence of the
court should not be pronounced
against him, raised his head and de-
clared that he was innocent of willful
murder and that he was justified in
shooting to death Ben Schumacher. He
did not deny shooting the man, nor
has he ever denied committing the act
but he now and has always contended
that he was forced to pull the trigger.

LOCAL WAREHOUSES;
WILL RESUME SALES
ON next MONDAY
Growers Committee Petitions Local
WarehOusemen Releasing Them
From Their Pledge and Asking
Houses Be ReOpened.

Maysville looseleaf warehouses will
resume the sale of tobacco on next
Monday morning and official an
nouncement to this effect was made by
the Maysville Warehouse Association
this afternoon.
The local warehousemen have al
ways said they were willing to do
what the growers wanted them to do
in this matter and they have pledged
the growers that they would keep
their warehouses closed until such a
time as the growers thought they
should be reopened. In view Of the
developments at Lexington yesterday
and in vie wo fthe fact that all loose
leaf markets all around Maysville are
to reopen next Monday, the members
fthe Growers county committee who
have been seen are Of the opinion that
the Maysville warehousemen should
be released from the pledge and asked
to reopen. They point out that it
would not be fair to the warehouse
men and would not be fair to the
growers in this section to keep the
market closed.
The following petition from the
Growers Committee was this after
noon presented to the officers Of the
Maysville Warehouse Association and
Immediately upon receipt the officers
officially announced the re-opening on
next Monday.

GROWERS WILL
CONTINUE FIGHT
FOR n CUT.OUT
Temporary Organization Is Perfected
To Push CutOut Of 1921 Crop -
Local Man on Organization
Committee.

Lexington, KY, Jan. 14.-Sales will
be resumed Monday morning in al
looseleaf tobacco warehouses in the
hurley region, warehousemen of Ken
lucky, Indiana, Ohio and Tennessee
meeting here yesterday, decided. The
sales will continue for an indefinite
period, it was decided.
After admitting defeat in their pres.
ent attempt to hold the 1920 crop
county committeeman from practically
every county in the region chose
Frank McVey, Versailles. to head
their temporary organization, the pur,
pose of which will be to work for an
absolute cutout of the 1921 crop and
to hold, if possible, the 1920 crop.
The manufacturers will be able tc
use only three-fourths of the 1920
crop, according to the report of the
committee of twelve made to the
growers here. One-fourth of the crop
about 75,OOO,OOO pounds, will be de-
clined because of its being Of poor
grade, the growers were told.
Formation of the growers organi-
cation was placed in the hands Of a
committee composed of Stanley Reed
Maysville; w. R. Button, Bedford
John Crockett, Sharpsburg; Ben
Mylor, Sanders, and A. c. Bogie, Mt
Sterling, with members from Indiana
Ohio and Tennessee to be chosen
later.
County Committeeman of the lates,
growers body will begin a drive i'm
demiately to enlist every grower in a
cutout movement it was decided. A
resolution providing that the growers
be asked to pledge themselves not to
grow tobacco in 1921 or permit tobac-
CO to be grown on land under their
control, as we'll as to hold the 1920,
crop and refuse to sign anything that
bound them not to dispose of the pres
ent crop, was adopted.
This action followed adoption by
the convention of growers delegates
Immediately before their adjournment
of resolutions framed by subcom-
mittee of the Executive Committee.
David Prewitt, Fayette county ware
houseman, was permitted to explain
the position of the warehousemen in
the matter, stating that warehouse
men realized their interests and the
interests of the growers were identi-
cal and were ready to cooperate with
the farmers.
He closed by demanding to know
what the growers had accomplished
since their meeting last Friday and
recounted what Lexington warehouse
men had done toward getting all mar
kets to close.
J. N. Kehoe, Maysville banker
warehousemen and tobacco grower,
declared that the growers did not need
any backing if they had backbone and
urged them to continue in their work
for a cutout and to stick to their orig
inal plan with all the fight in them.
He reminded them that the high
prices paid for leaf in the last ten
years was not due to the three-year
pool, the plant-bed scraping or night
riding, but to the cutout.
Three of the members of the big
Four tobacco buying interests, the R.
]. Reynolds, Liggett G Myers, Ameri-
can and Lorillard companies, had rep
resentatives confer with the commit
tee of Twelve, 1t was stated, and the
fourth company is expected to get In
touch with the members Of the COM
mittee at once.
