CITY LEADERS
PRAISE c. Of c.

At the luncheon today noon at
the Marion hotel of the Rotary
club the program was given over
to the Chamber of Commerce with
the president of the organization,
]. G. Perry, in charge. Mr.. Perry
called for short talks. Henry Nor
ris and r. o. Smelling, the two
colonels in the drive for member

lem would appreciate the Chamber
of Commerce more if it could be
disbanded. He also said that the
very ones who are indifferent
would be among those clamoring
for the reinstatement and offering
aid.
Mr.. Knowland complimented
the work of the club and among
other things said that many OF

rect result of its work.

PROTEST
SEIZURE OF SHIPS
OUTSIDE LIMIT

Washington, Oct. 18.-(By As
sociated Press. - A protest
against continued seizure of Brit
ish vessels by prohibition agents
operating outside the three mile
limit was presented to the state
department today on behalf of
the British government.
The British complaint is under
stood to have been based princi-
pally on the case of the schooner
Emerald, of Canadian registry
which is said in adyices reaching
British officials to have been
searched on Monday by the Amer
lean prohibition navy off the New
Jersey coast, more than miles
from land.
When President Harding IS
cabinet recently decided that pro-
hibition enforcement against
ships should stop at the three
mile limit except in the case of
vessels in communication with the
shore by use of their small boats,
their embassy officials are said to
have gained the impression that
no more foreign ships outside this
limit were to be molested until
the whole question had been set
tied in the courts.
In the case Of the Emerald, it
is held by the. British that there
was clear violation of the new
enforcement policy.

GRANGE ORATORS
FOR SCHOOL Bill

About 125 Salem people met
last night in the /. o. o. F. hall
under the auspices of the Ku Klux
Klan and listened to D. G. Lewis,
candidate to the legislature from
Multnomah county with the sup
port of the Federated Patriotic
societies, argue in favor of the
Compulsory school bill.
Mr.. Lewis, who while a legis-
lator, fathered bill to move the
state capital to Portland, said
that to be invited to the Capital
City and to speak on topic Of
such import while within the
shadow Of the dome, "and that's
about as close as / want to be
right now,'' was a great pleasure.
He declared that taxes would be
reduced instead of increased by
the passing of the bill. He said
that in Portland alone there was
over a million dollars worth of
Parochial school property which
was not being taxed and should
the school bill pass the property
would become taxable and the
state would be richer by that
amount. His talk was confined
to the evils Of the parochial
schools. Only once were other
private schools attacked.
Following Mr.. Lewis talk the
chairman of the evening an
nounced that the Orange lodge
which was responsible for the
speakers presence, had gone to
considerable expense and several
men would pass the hat, altho
most Of the audience were present
through printed invitations.
DR.. James Lisle spoke briefly
declared that in the public schools
the foundation of any religion,
to love man and respect authority,
is taught.
DR.. w. T. Millikin, pastor of
the First Baptist church, gave
che closing talk Of the evening
and after advancing his argu-
ments in favor of the bill read
the standards of the Orange lodge.

Premier to Resign
One anti-coaIition newspaper,
the Daily Mail, today attributes
to Prime Minister Lloyd George
the definite statement that he
will resign from office if the
unionist meeting declares against
Austen Chamberlain, whose out
spoken adhesion to the premier
has aroused strong opposition in
the party ranks.
Mr.. Lloyd Georges stateme It
is said to have been made at a
private meeting last night of the
liberal ministers and under secre-
tariee. None of the other papers
processes to know exactly what
passed at the meeting, although
all agree that Lloyd George re-
ceived cordial support.
Allied closely to the ministerial
crisis here and that impending in
Paris is the question of the gen
eral Near Eastern peace confer
ence, which it is felt must be
postponed until the situation in
London and Rome are settled.
Remarking upon this conting-
ency, the diplomatic expert of the
Daily Telegraph writes:
"The disadvantages of post
ponement might, however, be COM
pensated in some measure If
postponement which will carry the
we'll beyond the COM
ing American elections should
enable the Washington admins

!. OPTIMISTIC
FOR future:
Harding Declares Farmer
Will be Among the First
to Profit Under New
Era of Prosperity.

Washington. Oct. 1S.-Belief
that the farmer will be among the
first to get substantial recogni-
tion in new era activity and
prosperity" now on the way was
expressed by President Harding in
letter written to Secretary Wal
lace and made public today at
the White House. 1t was for
warded to the secretary to be
read today at meeting of re-
publicans at Washington court
house, Ohio.
Agriculture production is very
nearly restored, taking the world
as a whole but agricultural prices
are so low that it is apparent to
all of us that the farmer is not
being compensated, +" the presi-
dent said. ''The Washington ad-
ministration has recognized this
condition and has done every
thing in it's power to restore a
normal balance between prices
and costs of production.
Trend Is For Betterment
The executive further declared
great deal already had been ac-
complished toward that end and
added that the trend was strong
ly toward better conditions for
the farmer"
The farmer was described by
the president as ''captain OF in
dustry," the letter adding that
of competition among
farmers would be impossible
without sacrifice of that individ-
that still keeps the farm
the real reservoir from which the
nation draws SO many of the fin
est elements of it's citizenship.
The president took occasion
also to deplore any movement by
the farmers looking toward de-
crease Of production and said the
result of such a move
ment would be famine prices. He

administration of the department
Of agriculture and said the de-

proximate to them. The world

diamonds, declaring they had fol-
lowed him from st. Louis to obtain
the stones. The robbers then cut
the ignition wires on Morris car,
locked it, took the key and drove
away in the other car, according
to Moser.
After dinner with Morris and
several other diamond statesmen,
