Divine TELLS OF
near EAST CRISIS
FEARS ANOTHER GREAT WAR
MKINLEY MAKES PROPOSITION
TO CHAMBER COMMERCE..

The feature of Wednesdays chamber
sOf commerce luncheon was the 15-
minute address by Dr. Sherman l..
Divine, well-known Spokane minister,
on ''The Crisis of the Cross Roads, y
dealing with conditions in the Near
East which DR.. Divine has visited
twice in the past year in connection
with relief work. The story was told
in his inimitable style and held the
closest attention of the men present.
DR.. Divine contends that American
people may well post themselves on
conditions in the Near East, as, in
his opinion the peace of the world
hangs in the balance Of the Near East.
He said that there is almost certain
to be an explosion sooner or later
at the junction of the three contfn-
ents, Europe, Asia, and Africa, and
that when it comes, the late world
war will pale into insignificance in
comparison. He prophesied that it
will be the beginning of the last great
Armageddon. There will never, he
said. be peace between the crescent
and the cross.
Dr. Divine said that a combination
of the "red . soviet and the "red
Turk, with their millions of man
power, would almost be irresistible,
and might become all powerful, sweep
ing the three continents and endan-
gering the peace of the entire world.
He told of the prolonged fight OF the
Greek against the Turk, and SAID tnat
the world owes much to the Greeks,
and that the Turk has no right to
exist as nation.
Glenn Mckinley, an attorney of San
Francisco, formerly a well-known
Idaho man, was present and made
proposition to the chamber OF COM
merce to manufacture a wind motor,
for which he holds the patent, IN the
Idaho Harvester Company plant at
this place. President Hagan an
nounced that he would appoint COM
mittee to investigate the merits and
feasibility of the proposition.
Howard Blodgett, representing the
Associated Students of the University
of Idaho, spoke regarding the special
train to Boise, for the Armistice Day
game, and said that the cooperation
of the people of the city was desired
and that the university would be
found doing everything possible to
make the train success.
Secretary B. G. Rowe reported on
the recent meeting Of the pubilclty
of the North Idaho cham
Der of commerce held at Spokane,
last Friday, explaining the proposition
for the publication OF an advertising
pamphlet for the ten torthern counc
ties, which is now under way. He
said that it had been agreed by the
that a cut of the admins
tration building of the University Of
Idaho was to have the place Of honor
in the book.
Professor H. C. Dale moved that
committee of three be appointed to
cooperate with Mr.. Rowe in securing
data for the Latah county section OF
the book.
The excellent luncheon was served
by Lawrence HUFF, of Huff's cafe, and
it is understood that Mr. Huff will fur
nish the luncheons in the future.

LETTUCE HARVEST
ON AT LEWISTON
CROP WELL DEVELOPED-MAR
PROSPECTS GOOD-TO SHIP
so CARS WEEKLY.

Lewiston-The head lettuce har-
vest in Lewiston orchards is now at
it's height, and will continue so for
another week or more.
The head lettuce crop as whole
is excellent. Despite UNUSUAL diff
culties incident to the season, a con-
siderable portion of the crop will be
well developed and will be marketed
at very good prices. The cutting
crews are now all busy in the fields
and the forces in the packing house
are fully occupied in preparing the
product for shipment. Probably from
20 to 80 carloads in all are this week
being sent out to eastern markets.
AS each carload contains about 300
crates of not less than 48 heads
each, it can be seen that not far from
100000 heads have been sent out this
week.
The price in Lewiston f. O. b. has
lately not been more than $3.50. An
offer of 81 was turned down by one
of the growers. In the central east
ern cities, the wholesale price has
gone as high as $3.50, this probably
meaning a retail price of about 25c
a head in these localities, but as the
heads weigh from one to two pounds
each the consumers probably feel
that they get good value, as the sup
erior quality of the head lettuce that
is grown there is generally recog-
niZed.
Many Cars Shipped
The Cherrylanes company, which
shipped two cars last week, has sent
10 cars this week, with perhaps sew
eral more today. In the packing
house on Snake River avenue 81 per-
sons are working and there are 18
members in the cutting crews. This
company, in the south Idaho fields,
had shipped 21 cars up to Monday
last and expects to ship 20 cars this
week.
The Lewiston Valley Head Lettuce
association has sent up today, 29
cars, and anticipate a heavier output
next week, owing to the great i'm
provement in both quality and vol
ume, following the rain.
George H.. Banaka, who has lately
built new packing house on Dryden
avenue and Fifth street, where his
lettuce field is located, began cutting
this week, and does his own market
ing, as also do Messrs G. L. and Or
vile Fallwell, who both have con-
siderable acreage of their own.
Tt is probable that during the past
two weeks, as many carload ship
ments have been made as during the
entire season last year. The present
season is likely to continue for from
three to four weeks more, with prob
ably shipments of from 80 to SO
carloads each week for the next three
weeks.

COOLING SAYS WE ARE TO HAVE
AN ALL-AMERIcAN TARIFF.

"As chairman of a committee of
senators who desire an all-Americal
tariff bill passed by congress befor
adjournment this summer l desire t,
make the following statement on tn,
eve of the reporting of the Fordney-
McCumber bill" says Senator Good
ing, of Idaho:
The senate finance committee,
after months of most painstalxing
study and care, has about COM
pleted its work on the first all
American tariff bill in our history.
This measure will protect agricul-
ture and industry alike not only
in the west and south, but in the
east and north. ] am firmly con-
WINGED that the tariff bill, when
finally enacted will be one which
every section of the country will
gladly support As there has never
been such a need for a tariff which
recognized all sections alike. and
Go tiAtAt never has bttu SuCn a
unanimous demand for tariff legis-
lation, l think 1 can safely say that
this congress will never adjourn
until the bill is passed. This tariff
bill is going to be all-American in
every respect. 1t is going to put
the American people back to work
on the farm, ranch, mine and ia the
factory by restoring to them an
American market for their prod
ucts which is the greatest market
in the world. And. by adopting
some form of American valuation.
this bill will do away with fraud
and differentiation and bring
much needed revenue to the United
states treasury"
1t has taken time to perfect the bill
Conditions which prevailed when the
ouse passed it have changed radically
nd rapidly since then. necessitating
considerable overhauling of the SEIZED
les. But if the prediction of Senator
Iooding is fulfilled. the time spent on
he measure will have been amply JUS
fled.

measure at this time; quite the con-
trary. In fact, the feeling generally
prevails that the suspension of annual
assessment was carried too far imme
diately following the war, and that
nothing should be done now that will
tend to discourage development of the
mineral resources. The principle back
of the law requiring that 500 shall be
expended annually in labor and i'm
provements on a mining claim is iden-
tically the same as that which requires
the homesteader to clear and cultivate
a certain number of acres each year
II is not merely for the purpose Of
showing good faith in locating and
holding the land; it is primarily and
essentially for the purpose of promot-
ing the development of the resources
of the country. And certainly that is
what the mining sections need at this
time. Besides the direct benefit in the
way Of development to be derived in
that respect. the doing Of assessment
work will give employment to con-
siderable number of men, as we'll as
help local business establishments
the purchase of material and
supplies. 1t is not believed that there
is any possibility of this bill becoming
a law. This is the time to encourage
rather than discourage mining devel-
opment. and there are no conditions
that make necessary the suspension Of
work.

THE CASH BONUS.
tAiIning Congress Lonrnal-l

mining Congress Journal.)
With respect to the alleged dissat
faction on the part of ex-service men
generally over the delay in passing a
bonus measure. it is questionable
whether or not their dissatisfaction is
as widespread as political propaganda
would have the public believe. The
public will remember that $500, 600. 900
is being appropriated annually to care
for disabled veterans and that the
government will leave no stone m
turned in it's efforts TO alleviate the
distress Of those unfOrtunates who
have been handicapped by disabilities
resulting from service. Appropria-
tons will be increased. to whatever
extent necessary to properly care for
the disabled.
AS to the bonus. the viewpoint of
many ex-service men is expressed in
the following quotation from a veteran
who is not in any way interested in the

NO NECESSITY FOR SUSPENSION
OF ASSESSMENT WORK.

Senator Stanfield. of Oregon. has in
troduced a bill for the suspension Of
annual assessment work on mining
claims. He proposes to do away with
it not only for the years 1921 and 1929
but also for 1928 and 1924. It would be
interesting to know what influence
prompted the Oregon senator 20 intro
duce this bill. So far as this paper is
able to determine, there is no senti-
ment in the mining districts for such

political side of the issue:
Il served overseas from 1917 to 1919
in the advance zone of the armies as
an enlisted volunteer from the state Of
Kansas, and l venture the opinion that
able bodied men, like myself. are more
concerned about the men who were
disabled or contracted disease through
fighting and exposure in the trenches
than they are about a cash bonus to
those who came through unscathed
many of them better off physically
than when they went in. The admin
istratiOn has been entrusted by the
electorate with the job of putting
through constructive legislation that
will not disturb or retard the return of
business and industrial stability, ano
which will insure steady employment
for the former soldier a condition far
more vital to his welfare than the tenn
porary relief which a cash bonus might
afford"
The mining industry wishes to bear
its fair share of the tax needed to ad-
equately provide for the disabled. and
will look with disfavor upon any at
tempt to shirk the responsibility rest
ing upon the country to make such
provision; but without taking a posi-
ton one way or the other regarding the
feasibility of bonus. the mining in
dustry looks forward to the restoration
of conditions which will enable the
mines to operate at full capacity in
order to provide continuous employ
ment for men who want to work, and
an unnecessary increase in the tax
burden which would postpone the re-
turn of normal conditions and inten-
sify business and industrial depression
cannot be justified by any process of
reasoning.
