Superintendent Leslie
Long Call Oregon As
Sociation to Task for
Statements

That the Gem State Poultry show,
held in Caldwell the past two years
and scheduled Tor this seasons show
in January. is the declaration OF Les
lie Long OF Boise. superintendent OF
the show. Mr.. Long takes exception to
the announcement OF the Oregon Pet
Stock and Poultry association that 1t
pays the highest premiums in the
northwest as announced on its pre-
MUM list Tor this year in these words.
The regular cash premiums and the
special cash premiums are larger than
are offered by Any other show in the
northwest"
This is not true, Mr.. Long says, II
Caldwell is considered to be in the
northwest MIR. Long continues this
statement with comparison OF pre-
miums offered locally and by the Ore
gon association.
a careful analysis OF the entry fees
and cash prizes offered show that the
Oregon association does not pay back
to the exhibitors" Mr. Long points
out. Entry fees in the Gem State
Poultry association nay back and adj
diiional sum OF nearly so per cent in
addition to the amount paid by the
exhibitors as entry fees. II seems
that this has provided an excellent
argument ind advertising features for
the Gem State Poultry association
whose annual show will be held at
Caldwell. January I'll. inclusive.
THE attendance nj the Caldwell
show as turned in by the official count
was 4.629 people in a period OF four
days and it consisted of people inter-
esied or engaged in the poultry BUSH
ness The show is conducted under
the rules of the American Poultry as
sociation. We do not have a poultry
press in this community TO herald the
wonderful success of the Caldwell
poultry show but such men as {. 5.
Brewster OF Portland. II. +. Dixon,
manager OF the Pacific Cooperative
Poultry Producers association, Park
hurst OF the University OF Idaho and
II. f. Cosby Of o. A. c. all were in
attendance and have signihed their
intension again this year. So if any
one is skeptical about the success OF
the poultry show 1T Caldwell, they
may write any OF the individuals |
have named and they will probably
learn that the show at Caldwell is not

Caldwell players looked like foot

Straight football was enough to win
from Ontario And the way the Cald-

been good enough to win from any
high school club that has played here
this year.
Only once, in the second quarter,
did the Caldwell team falter. That
quarter play was exactly like it had
been in many games this season, weak
and ineffective.
The parade started early. Receiv-
ing the ball on the initial kickoff, Cald-
well backs circled the ends or plunged
off tackle for substantial gains that
could not be stopped until the drive
had netted a touchdown. Ontario
linesmen blocked the attempt at goal.
That ended the scoring for the half

AMERICA MAY

Germany Faces Starva-
ton this Winter, Re-
port; Coolidge Cam
paign is Active

Observation-Disclosures or not Prize
mier Poincare will by his obduracy
save President Coolidge from that en-
tanglement in European affairs to
which Messrs. Coolidge and Hughes
have committed themselves is the
question everyone is asking in Wash
inton. Some of Mr. Coolidge's most
earnest supporters are praying he will
be saved by the obstinacy OF France
from what they regard as an ire
trievable blunder. Secretary Hughes
has let il be known that he expects to
see eloquent demands on American
charity during the coming winter to
save thousands OF Germans threatened
with starvation. This has led some
OF the most astute OF Mr. Coolidge
political advisers to point out to him
that his safest course is to back out
of the proposed economic investiga-
ton OF Germany's ability to pay. and
to lead a movement to raise funds to
relieve starving Germans and-inci-
dentally-to aid the American farm
ers. His attention is being called to
the fact that two years ago Congress
appropriated S20,0O0.O00 to feed starry
ing Russians; that, judiciously ex-
pended by Secretary Hoover. this sum
had the effect OF raising the price OF
wheat Is to 20 cents a bushel; and
that concrete aid could be afforded
the farmer and the hog raiser now by
a like appropriation and expenditure
for the benefit OF Germans who are
unquestionably suffering. and soon
will be starving.
That this administration cannot
carry out the Hughes plan without
mourning the condition OF the ire
concilables and the great following
they have among the American people
has been made plain by the recent
uttcrance OF Senator Johnson OF Cali
fornia. america will answer the cry
OF suffering humanity abroad with
money and food" sand Senator John
son. "but the nation should stand
solidly against the participation in
Europe's political affairs-The United
States. despite the Establishments OF
European statesmen or the mawk-
ish appeals OF any OF our own, will
be neither policeman nor collector
abroad" So responsive chord did
this statement OF the California Sena-
tor strike that commentator is heard
in many quarters, together with a
somewhat insistent demand that he
announce his candidacy for the presi-
dental nomination in opposition to
President Coolidge. No one in Wash
ington seems to know Mr.. Johnson's
plans in this regard. nor is it posi-
bic to find any basis for the predic-
ton that his hat will be in the ring

PARMA HIGHWAY
Idaho Department Can't
Rebuild Parma Road
at Present; Other Pro-
jects Talked

That the state highway Department
has no funds which it can use in re-
building the Old Oregon Trail high
way from Caldwell to Parma was the
discovery made last week by a group
of local and Parma business men who
conferred at Boise with Governor c.
c. Moore and William Hall. commits
sioner OF public works. Appeal was
made to the state for aid in maintain
ing this highway.
This road. il was pointed out. while
designed as state highway. had not
been constructed on state highway
specifications. Ignoring this handi-
cap for state funds. there are none
available from any source which can
be turned to the use sought. Mr.. Hall
said. That the state has no part in
building the new road through the
first Black Canyon unit and that no
funds will be devoted either to its
construction or its maintenance, was
pointed out to local representatives
at the hearing.
THE state of Idaho is not building
parallel roads when so many OF those
already constructed require mainten-
ance expenditures" was the emphatic
declaration of the highway depart
ment
Destruction of Caldwell highway
mileage signs on the Pacific highway
to New Plymouth was not ordered by
the highway department and those
signs will be replaced, local men were
informed. However, the signs be-
tween Nampa and Boise conflict in
some measure with highway signing
regulations and because the highway
department specifically reserves the
right to destroy any highway signs for
any reason whatever, these signs were
removed and will not be permitted
to be replaced.
As regulations for signing highways
now stand, Caldwell has an exclusive
franchise in certain competitive dist
riots, it was pointed out. In the alb
sence of protest these signs are per-
mitted to remain for a time with a
view of working out a satisfactory
highway signing program.
Steps were taken TO organize a
southwestern Idaho highway associ-
alton, one of whose duties will be to
map out complete signing program
for state highways and other roads Of
this territory. A meeting to effect this
organization will be called shortly,
probably at Caldwell.
Another project which will be sub
mitted to the proposed association IS

Trail from Apple Valley below Par
ma to Fruitland. This road is already
an issue. About Is miles OF constru.:

of 20 yards on every exchange OF

This game may conclude the Coy

the home schedule for Thanksgiving
but $l400 necessary to bring that team
here is looked upon as too heavy a
guarantee so far as the games drawing

been reached to cancel the game il

that the game was safely tucked away,
the program may be altered.
