When the Grower Suffers

The statistical division Of the
Northwest Wheat Growers associated
in an article this week tells how off,
cial estimates Of wheat production is
sued by European governments last
year greatly exaggerated the proba-
bic yields.
During the time the American far
mers were disposing of their pro-
ducts, reports from almost every Eu-
ropean government declared record
Yields were in view, and that the de-
mand for American grain would be
small at best But later, as the stat
lstical division of the cooperative or
ganization points out, every one of
these nations with the exception OF
Great Britain backed up from its for
mer statements and applied the
shears"
The evil effect Of these exaggerat-
cd eStlinateS upon tne american far-
mer clearly can be seen when we re-
call how such mismformation is re-
ceived by boards Of trade in this
country.
Responsive as the needle Of a COM
pass, fluctuating upward or downward
to every rumor Of increased or de-
creased demand, the wheat markets
in America were crowded down, by
these incorrect European reports
Millions OF dollars were lost to Amer
lean wheat producers last year by

The Gentle Art of Slick
ering"

Time and again Americas great
metropolis, New York, has laughed
at the country rube' who visiting
the big town, has fallen in with the
CITY slicker and returned to his home
town with block of stock in the
Brooklyn Bridge, which has been sold
to him, or brick of gold that has
stood actual test in an assay Office"
and is later found to have been plug
ged. Now, however, the laugh is on
the city man himself, 1t has remain
ed for Irving 7. Bush-guardian an
gel of struggling business humanity
and among the most advanced of free
publicity SeekerS-to turn the trick
on a number of the most astute bus
mess men in New York. The scheme
it appears has been pulled off in con-
nection with the Bush Terminal
Building that stands in the heart of
the worlds busiest business centre,
42nd Street and Broadway, 80 stories
| high and almost piercing the clouds.
The result is the preparation of a
law suit of no mean proportion, but
in the meantime the philantrophic
Mr.. Bush sits, smiles and awaits a
gold medal as the champion slicker
of America.
Big business men flocked into the
Bush Terminal Building, paying for
Office space as high as SIS or So a
square foot. The price was stagger-
| ing, but to offset it Mr.. Bush dedi-
Gated two floors of the building for
the use of his tenants. He provides
a wonderful restaurant on the ground
floor, luxurious lounging quarters
for the Buyers Club, consisting OF
the tenants arc their business visit
ors. Then there were rest rooms,
telephones, conference rooms and all
the other surroundings of New York
| luxury offered free to the rent pay
ers. The Bush Terminal was YER
table business paradise and the sc
Istories were soon filed. No comes
the second reel. Having hooked The
tenants up with lorg leases at rents
that would breaE the average busi-
ness man, Mr.. Bush rolled up his
philantrophic cloak and PUT it away
| in camphor. Without consulting the
/ tenants, h. closed the club, tore d"wn
the restaurant, abolished the magnif-
cent entrance, and turned the space
into rentable quarters, from which il
| is expected to rake in another $780,
600 a year.
Visitors from out Of town now look
in vain for the entrance to the great
Bush Terminal Building, but it is
only about 8 feet wide and can't be
found except by an explorer. The
only mark of Identification is little
revolving barber pole sign on the
building next door. The injury tc
the business of the tenants is sale
to run into the hundreds Of thousands
of dollars. Perhaps the city man will
now realize that the country rube'
is not the only fellow who suffer;
from inability to match wits with the
slicker.

oRRow COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
Don't Scuttle the Public
Schools

Some excellent things were said
here yesterday by members of the
state tax commission and others. The
tax problem is a big one and there
is urgent need OF relief particularly
for the man who owns farm land.
There are ways of securing relief if
the proper steps are taken but the
East Oregonian will say frankly it
looks aSkanee at some of the sug-
gestions made during the trip of the
commission.
Ever since the committee started
its hearings at Baker there have been
covert attempt at campaign of pre-
judice against the direct primary and
against public education, particularly
against the Oregon Agricultural col
lege and the state university. This
latter line of effort has shown UP es-
pecially in the articles BY John w.
Kelly in the Oregonian and in talks
BY Coe McKenna, a member of the
commission. The people of Oregon
do not need any advice from these
gentlemen upon this subject. If there
are any corrective steps to be taken
in connection with college finances
these men are not the ones to sug-
geSt what should be done.
1t is the function of a state to pro-
vide free public schools and the col
leges are a logical and necessary part
OF our public school system. 1t is
proper enough to charge tuition when
students come from outside the state
but ii would not be good policy to
charge tuition for Oregon students.
The state that cannot maintain free
public education for its young peo-
pie is not entitled to statehood.
In connection with the tax reduc-
ton crusade, what is the idea of con-
centratlng so strongly upon the
schools? There is not state school
in Oregon that is proportionately as
well provided for as are the inmates
OF the Eastern Oregon State Hos
pltal. Why not look the field over
and see if there are not other places
where the tax reducers can do good
work?
Are the timber lands of Oregon,
aggregating many millions in value,
bearing their just share of the taxes?
Are the public service corporations,
including the railroads, taxed as
deeply as are the farmers? Have
the paving corporations that have had
so much business under our S40,000,-
600 road program paid their just
share of taxes. The commission
might proftably look into these mat
tiers also.
Nor is there any sense in the the
oy expressed by some that the d.
rect primary has been the cause of
high taxes The tax situation is Just
as severe in boss ridden states as in
Oregon. The situation is nation wide,
in fact it is world wide. Taxes are
grevlous because business and indus
Try are depressed. As to what caused
the collapse opinions differ but it is
fact that it followed quickly on the
heels of the rejection Of the treaty OF
Versailles. In a critical hour the
world was left bewildered and lead
erless and economic chaos followed
We are now paying the price but we
are not going to escape by scuttling
the public school system. We car
do considerable to relieve taxation
and it should be done. But in a way
the really big problem is beyond oul
control.
There is no local remedy for Z
world wide disease.-EaSt Oregon
ian.

PUBLIC DOMAIN
QUESTION AGAIN
TO THE FRONT

The Public Domain question bob
bed up again at the Colorado Springs
New Mexico and Ari-
IONA seemed to favor what is known
as the Sinnott bill providing for
leasing of public ranges under the
Department of Interior. The details
of this bill were outlined in the Aug
ust issue of the Nevada Stockgrower
with reasons way it would not fit
Nevada conditions. (The article
mentioned above was also published
in the Record several months ago.
A resolution protesting it's passage
was adopted at the National Wood
Growers Convention at Salt Lake
City in January and also at our own
convention in Reno. After consid-
cradle discussion in the Resolutions
Committee at Colorado Springs, all
resolutions dealing with this iegisla-
son were withdrawn and no express
sion made
However, during the discussion,
no less a person than John b. Ken
drick, U. S. Senator from Wyoming,
made the proposal that the National
Association urge settlement of the
public land question by giving the
remaining public domain to our sol
diers and sailors in the nature of a
bonus, and without residence or sim
liar requirements. Such a move could
mean nothing but purchase of these
lands by stockmen. Understanding

United States Senator from Kansas
The loss of Senator Kenyon in

That program is going right op-
