GWIN WITH new
SHIPPING CONCERN

w. f. Gwin, formerly with the North
west Fruit Exchange but now represent
ing a new fruit marketing agency, and
j. S. Crutchfeld representing the
! Northwestern Fruit Exchange and Am.
erican Fruit Growers, are appearing be-
! fore special meetings If all the units OF
! the Skookum Packers Association in
| this district presenting the merits of
their respective plans for handling the
SkOOkum output in the future. Pres. j.
A. Warman, of the SkOOkum Packers
Association. also appers and gives his
ideas as to the future policy. Every
one of the ten units will hear the argu-
ments of both Crutchfield and GWin
and will vote later as to whether they
prefer to remain with the Northwestern
or 90 with the new agency. 1t is the
plan to confine the Skookum brand ex-
clusively TO apples and other fruit grown
IN the Wenatchee district.
The debates are not Of joint nature,
but each speaker appears separately be-
fore the meetings, answering all quest
ions at the conclusion Of his argument.
1t is a novel plan, and was first tried
out at Peshastin, followed by OkanOgan,
Omak, Malott Brewster, Pateros, Chelan
Entiat, Wenatchee and Cashmere.
While the proposal TO consolidate the
Skookum and the Wenatchee District
Cooperative Association is a subject Of
discussion, no definite steps have been
taken by either side The Cooperative
officials and members deny any disposi-
tion or desire for such a move, prefer
ing to continue under the present plan.
If any overtures are made towards such
a move, they must come from Skookum,
according to the Cooperative officials.

SCHOOL BONDS
MEET OPPOSITION

Considerable opposition is manifest
against the proposed $685. 600 bond issue
to be passed on by patrons of the Pine
Grove School District tomorrow. While
the proponents of the bond issue are
advancing the argument that an emer-
gency has been reached, those who
voice an opposition state that the
school building is not Overcrowded to
the point claimed in statements made
by proponents of the issue.
Mrs. Edw. Hawkes., who has made a
thorough investigation of the school
conditions says:
e-"I think it true that some of those
who are favoring the bonds have been
led to such decision by misleading in
formation. We have been told that
the district has 28l pupils. In fact the
largest average monthly attendance
has never exceeded l61. This occurred
when we had a host of apple pickers'
families among us. The average at
tendance now is 13l. We have five
teachers, giving each an average of
26a pupils. These teachers handle only
eight grades. | think they are not
overcrowded or overburdened.
1--WE should not proceed to vote
heavy bonded Indebtedness Just be-
cause some of the other districts of the
Hood River valley have more modern
school buildings. Let us proceed in
moderation and acquire only what we
can pay for. At a meeting recently of
commission engaged in a study of
tax conditions of the state it was an
nounced 80 per cent of our orchards
carried first mortgages and that so per
cent of these had second mortgages.
only ask that some of those who are so
ardently in favor of the school bonds
study the taxes that already exist
against our orchards, the income of
which is uncertain, IN the way of
school, general county and state, high
way, market road and irrigation lev
les. Do you know that some of our
land, with full bearing orchards on il, |
is selling for less today than it brought |
10 years ago, when covered with virgin |
forest? Is it not time to call halt?
The number 28l is correct If modi- |
fed by the explanation that it includes /
all children of the district between the /
ages of four and q. 1t includes a
number of boys and girls who are away /
at institutions Of higher education.
81 am an old teacher. and | do not
want to be taken as opposed to educa-
ton. but | am desirous Of going on
record as opposed to what | consider
needless extravaganza.
A meeting Of taxpayers of the dis
.rict who oppose the bond issue was
leld at the apple house Of A. /. Mason
Monday.

PROSPECTS BRIGHT
FOR NEW HOMES
(By Nelson Emry)

There has never been a February in
the last 10 years which developed so
many live prospects for home building
as this year Very little large con-
struction is in sight but the number of
| homes to be built this year and the
amount of remodeling which will be
done will he a revelation to many peo-
| pie.
Several reasons account for this
home building boom. The general
public is now finally convinced that
lumber and building material prices
have reached the bottom. The fact is
that the low point in lumber products
was reached last fall and some ad
vances in different items have become
effective since that time. Hardware,
plumbing, paint, wiring, every kind
of material used in home construction,
are reduced from Is to so per cent
from war prices. Labor also has done
its share and first class mechanics are
available for the coming season at
reasonable rates.
The shortage of homes in Hood
River is everywhere apparent and the
time has come when this accumulated
shortage must be remedied. Building
WHICH has Deen nelu up IOT years il
pressing for attention and the pros
poets are that much Of it will be at
tended to this year.
The number of people in the valley
who are able to build is much greater
this year than it has been in many
years. Banks report that the general
financial condition OF the community is
excellent with some money left over
from last years crop which can he di-
verted to improvements. The soldier
bonus is also an important feature
which will have an important bearing
on home construction during the COM
ing year. Funds from this source will
be available in time for spring build
ing and inquiries from ex-service men
regarding costs are coming in every
day.
The Importance to Hood River of
such activity in home building cannot
be oveIestimated. Not only will our
taxable valuation be increased but our
community spirit will be strengthened. /
The man who owns his own home is /
rarely a bolshevik; his real property /
will not permit him to be. /
He becomes real, vital part of the /
interests himself in civic /
affairs, is a more efficient employe and .
q better citizen.
