FRENCH FORTUNE is
PLEDGED TO BANK

The private fortunes of the French
families, estimated to be considerably
in excess of $500. 600 will be thrown in
tosthe breach to prevent loss by depos-
itors of the French 4 Co. bank of The
Dalles, the doors of which were closed
Thursday morning, according to a
o. b. Robertson, state bank examiner.
The statement follows:
"Under ordinary circumstances
would hesitate in my official capacity
to make a statement such as | shall
now make pertaining to the French &
Co., bankers, but | do not consider
this case an ordinary one. firmly
and sincerely believe that this institu-
ton will reopen for business within a
period of 10 to Is days and perhaps
sooner.
81 base my conclusions on the fact
that the stockholders of the bank rep
resent heavy financial interests in
other lines, and they have turned over
to me outside assets aggregating ap-
proximately one-half million dollars
with instructions that | negotiate a
loan against these assets in a sufficient
sum to liquidate all of the slow and
doubtful paper under criticism by the
state banking department. There is
nothing to prevent putting the institu-
tion in first-class shape provided loan
can be obtained on the securities to
which / have above referred, and
feel quite positive it can be done.
cit is really pleasure to me to
state that the French families are will
ing and anxious to sacrifice their pri-
vate fortunes for the purpose of pre-
venting a loss to their depositors. In
view of their attitude in the matter
feel that the depositors should refrain
from making permanent banking con-
nections in other quarters, for after
this bank reopens with the bad and
doubtful assets eliminated, it will be
an institution thoroughly worthy of the
support and patronage of its old eli
ents. o. b. Robertson,
Estate Bank Examiner.

GROWERS MAKE MOST
OF GOOD WEATHER

With cold. clear weather prevailing,
orchardists of the valley have never
been buster that at the present time.
Weather conditions since last Novem-
Der 10 have prevented any winter work
except pruning, and many growers be-
cause of the deep SHOWS and extreme
cold are behind with this department
Of orchard work.
Trucks and wagons are now daily
hauling out spray materials and grow
ers are overhauling power rigs, get
ting ready for the seasons first appli-
cations of spray. Owners of straw
berry tracts, as soon as the soil per-
mits, will begin hoeing plants.
Indications are that growers will
make heavy investments this season in
power spray rigs of newer types. Be
cause Of lack of power in applying
spray material. old machines last
season, il is said. resulted in heavy
losses in many orchards. High pow
cred pumps, experiment station ex-
perts declare, are needed in forcing
the spray materials into the tOpmos I
branches of the trees.

SCHOOL FIRE DRILLS

If you have poked fun at school fire
drills YOU felt ashamed of yourself on
reading ar account of the fire at the
Holladay school in Portland Monday.
Five hundred youngsters marched safe
ly from the structure, which burned
fercely over their heads. They reached
safety in some 50 seconds.
This incident should cause us to con-
gratulate ourselves on the recent local
fire prevention activities. Jay Stevens
the other day gave our adult popula-
tion fire talk that was revelation to
many, a revelation that may prevent
fire loss here. Reels of moving pic
lures were shown the kiddies Monday.
In each school junior fire department
is being organized. Let all Of us en-
ter into this new work with the SER
iousness that it merits.

DIR. KERR COMING
SUNDAY EVENING

President W. j. Kerr, of Oregon
Agricultural College, is to be the
speaker at the Sunday Evening club
which meets at Riverside church next
Sunday evening.
The club is doing Hood River very
substantial service in bringing the
notable men to the city who appear
from time to time upon its platform.
No one is held in higher esteem in this
community than President Kerr for all
the work he has done for all of the
agricultural interests of the state and
doubtless large congregation will be
out to greet him when he comes to the
city Sunday evening.
President Kerr has not yet announced
his subject but his address will have to
do with scientific education. This will
be a fine opportunity for the alumni
and former Students to meet the popu-
lar president of the institution.
1t is planned to have the Mems Cho-
rus of Riverside church furnish the
music. This group has been doing
some fine singing and is making a vital
contribution to the programs of the
Sunday Evening club.

THE WEATHER

l.. M. Baldwin played the part of
First robin of the season" in the local
motoring world. Mr.. Baldwin was ap-
pretended by Speed Officer Wood while
driving without his chauffeur's permit.
The thoughtlessness cost him SO when
he faced Justice of the Peace Onthank.
Mr.. Baldwin says he was caught un-
awares. He was working on the lawn,
garbed in an old suit, preparing for
spring gardening when neighbors and
relatives arrived and his wife suggest
ed a spin. The party hurried away in
the car and the drivers license was
left in the pocket Of coat hanging on
rack at home.
According to stories told by redskin-
here shopping last week, the Indian
colony to the east Of the city is divided
in two camps over claims of infallibil-
ity IN weather representation. Re
Gently when a snowfall was followed
by a warm chinook a squaw announced
to white friends that they might pre-
pare garden plots that spring was at
hand. Her statement was ad1udged rs
unwise and extremely rash by fellow
tribesmen, who gave out the statement
that the winter season of the mid
Columbia had been marked by the fall
of but 10 SHOWS. when all signs pointed
to y total of Is before the rock lilies
and dog tooth yiOlets would lift their
pretty heads from Columbia River
Highway cOpses.
White friends, who have been fol-
lowing the alteration Of the aborig-
ines, express the belief that the IS
snow prophets have the best Of the
argument. The Tooth day of continual
east wind and low temperature, except
for h short period Of an occasional day
when the temperature would soar
above freezing, prevailed Friday. The
total snowfall has reached II feet and
three inches.
81 have been here around 40 years. "
said Edgar Locke last week, "and
have never seen winter as severe as
this.
Although chill east wind continued

with a grizzly thin blanket Of snow,

the chatter Of robins. Scores Of red

MuItnomah county had one mighty
good reason for clearing the Columbia
River Highway. II seems queer that
none of the spellbinders thought to ad-
vance it. Portland has been the place
of residence this winter of many un-
employed men. 1t has been necessary
to care for many through charitable
organizations. Why whould it not have
been better to have allowed the men TO
maintain self respect and earn their
living clearing the ice drifts on the
Highway?

Peculiar Accident on Highway

Two motor trucks participated in a
peculiar accident on the Columbia
River Highway Tuesday when stretch
of pavement near Herman creek caved
in. The surfacing dropped about five
feet. An Investigation showed that
the fill had been placed on an old plank
culvert. The wood work had decayed,
allowing the entire roadbed to break
through. The cave-in is only few
feet across and the road was blocked
only temporarily.

ALLIES WANT TERMS
OF US. RHINE CLAIMS
Continued from First Page.

the upkeep Of the United States Army in
the Rhineland. appeared to-day. The
Daily Chronicle, under the caption.
"America's Bombshell," says: "Intrins-
ically the claim is not unreasonable, and
IL the practical effect is to make some
of our Continental friends less jealous
to prolong the occupation of German
soil this would be quite as much to the
taste of British public opinion as to
America" The paper thinks the fact
that America undertook the Rhine occu-
patton jointly with the Allies does give
her some moral claim for joint reim-
bursement." The Chronicle submits that
. more valid objection would be that, IL
America really wanted the money, she
should have asked earlier and not waited
until the Powers had elaborated their
plans on the. assumption that she did
not want it,
The Westminster Gazette, using the
same headline, says the claim is con-
tested. and that there is not much doubt
that every penny the United States takes
will have to come out of the Allies share
or the reparations. 1t continues: This
action by the United States compels the
Allies to, face the fact that the cost of
occupying German territory is altogether
out of proportion to the debt for which
the occupation is security. and that the
whole scheme of payments and sanctions
reeds to be substantially revised. The
lesson will be cheap at the cost OF a
milliard gold marks"
