SUGAR PRICE JUMPS
IS CENTS IN MONTH

With sugar advancing Is cents
a hundred pounds few days ago,
the total advance the past month
Wholesale is half a cent a pound.
Grocers who have been in close
touch with the sugar markets says
that an advance at this time of
year is something unusual. The
advance generally comes during
the canning season when sugar is
in the greatest demand, and then
declines in the fall. This time,
the powers that regulate the sugar
market reversed matters, kept a
steady market during the canning
season and then pushed the price
up half cent a pound during the
month of November.

REAL ESTATE law
TESTED IN EAST

The action of the supreme court
OF the United States in upholding
the constttutionality of the real
estate brokers law OF Tennessee,
should set at rest any question as
to the validity OF the Oregon
law, according to G. V. Johnson,
commissioner Of the real estate
department for Oregon.
The Tennessee law, passed in
1921, was modelled after the Ore
gon law, passed in 1919, Johnson
points out. Real estate brokers of
Tennessee taking objections to
the regulation attacked the con-
stitutionality of the law as vi
olation of the fourteenth amend
ment to the constitution of the
United States. The district court
of the United States held with
the complaining brokers' and de-
clared the law unconstitutional.
but the supreme court Of the Unit
ed States, to which the case was
appealed, has reversed the action
OF the lower court and held the
law to be constitutional.
Fourteen states of the union
now have laws regulating real es-
tate brokers similar to the Ore
gon law and many other states
are expected to swing into line at
the next legislative session. John
son declares.

RURAL DISTRICTS
. CONTRIBUTE BEST
TOREDCROSSFUN

Contributions for the American
Red Cross campaign are coming
in better from Polk county and
from districts outside OF Salem
than from the city itself, accord
ing TO Mrs. Arthur A. Wilson, who
has charge of the annual Red
Cross campaign for funds.
Silyerton reported Tuesday to-
tai contribution Of $214.50, while
stayton has already sent in $65 so.
From Mt. Angel there has been
received 500, Mrs Wilson said.
Independence has already raised
500 for the Red Cross and Is still
going strong, according to reports
received today. West Salem re-
ports encouraging results and this
morning called for additional
blanks with which to secure sub
scriptions.
In the city, solicitors have Of
fered their assistance to canvass
the state house, Willamette uni
yersity and the business district
in addition to three other districts
in the city.
But the great need just at pres
ent, Mrs. Wilson says, is to secure
workers to canvass in the resi-
dence districts. At least rs are at
present needed to cover the city
properly.
The Red Cross annual campaign
for funds is supposed to have
closed November 80, but the cam
paign has in reality hardly start
ed on account Of the lack OF So
licitors.
Mrs. Wilson states that the en-
tire work of the Red Cross is in
caring for not only veterans of
the great war, but of their fami-
lies. During the past year, the
Red Cross has expended about
$4,000. Every day appeals are
made to the Red Cross for not only
financial assistance, but for aid in
securing proper papers for ex-
service men.
In spending the $4,000 the past
year, the Red Cross has been
obliged to dig deep into its re-
serve fund, and unless there Is a
more generous response, within a
year or two the Red Cross which is
devoting all its time and money In
aiding ex-service men and their
families, will cease to exist, for
Marion and Polk counties, Mrs.
Wilson said.

For a moment Thorne Blaisdell

that he was going to see his wife.
But when John did make him undIr-

anger. For over three years Thorne
Blaisdell had been befriending the
prejudiced against John at first be-
cause of his slow, reticent ways. But
he had grown honestly fond of him
and delighted in his dependability
He had given him his first job merely
because John was married to the
daughter Of his dearest friend and
sorely needed the work. He had
rented them a little cottage on his
estate for about half what it was
worth because he was interested In
helping them. And in a thousand and
one ways both Mr.. and Mrs. Blaisdell

that she had never really learned to
adjust herself to Johns modest earn

struggling under the handicap of

small victories over self and laughed
indulgently over her mistakes.
He knew John was a plodder. but
realized that he was no stupid plodder
that he had a real future ahead OF
to come to be a genuine power in the
organization.
