i. S. BUSINESS MEN
FEAR TRADE LOSS.
Call Canadian Shipping Reg
uIation Observation-Disclosures
| ton by Country Urged.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON. January 17,-American
business interests are aroused over
what is stated to be a discriminatory
Canadian shipping regulation, when
became effective January j. IT is
feared the regulation may aifect ma
terially the Eastern American ports
of New York, Boston, Portland, Baltl-
more and others by the loss of Valu-
able Canadian transit trade. The new
Canadian order is the outcome OF the
imperial preference scheme and stlpu-
lates that all freight to Canadian ports
must be shipped direct, instead or en-
loving the former transshipment prlvl-
leges through the United States.
L. s. Urged to Action.
It is understood that the United
States is being urged to take reprisal
measures against the great volume
of European freight which reaches the
NTidwestern States by way of Cana
dian norts unless the discriminatory
regulation is rescinded. Thus, cities
like Chicago. St. Louis and Kansas
City and much territory included in
the new American inland waterways
program would be affected
The whole situation, which involves
the question of arrangements for free
transit between the United States and
Canada, is the subject of negotiations
between Washington and Ottawa. It
is even reported that the Canadian
government has altered the offending
regulation, but the Canadian authori-
ties in London have not thus far been
advised.
Discrimination Not Involved.
American shipping representatives
4,of "a TI1eSfinT IF f1tCcrir1tnR-
Eion against either the American or
British flag is not involved in the dis.
pute, because American ships desiring
to handle cargo from Great Britain to
Canada can do SO, provided they touch
Canadian ports. 1t is not likely that
this will be done, however, because the
amount of traffic is not sufficient to
warrant social calls at Canadian ports
by American or other ships.

BREAD-AND-WATER LIMIT
OF 5DAYS TO BE ASKED
Nebraska Attorney Says Law Was
Intended to Keep Buns From
Wintering IN Jailas
by the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LINCOLN. Nebr., January 1Ts-An
amendment to the Nebraska bread.
and-water sentence law which would
limit diet sentences to five days has
been drawn up by Richard Hunter,
Omaha, attorney, for introduction in
the State Legislature.
Mr.. Hunter figured in the fight
against the diet sentence law last Fall,
being attorney for Roy Carson and
Thomas Nelson, convicted liquor law
vtolators, who made an unsuccessful
attempt to escape the sentences Inn
posed by County Judge Orville Chat
at Tekamah.
The bread-and-water law was orig
mated to discourage buns from win
tertng in Nebraska ja1ls, Hunter said.
It is now being used as an aid to
notoriety and publicity in liquor case
sentences. which is wrong. because
the law never was intended for such
offenders.

AS every good product gains recognition and in
creasing popular demand it's price naturally be-
comes lower When it reaches that point where its
success is unquestioned it establishes mark
for vaue-and sells for the lowest possible price
consistent with its unequaled quality.
Kelvinator is success. And, true this standard
for judging it's position, sells for the lowest
price in the history of electric refrigeration.
Startling price reductions take effect today!

TAKES LITTLE
INTEREST IN TAX SALE

D. S. Wilkinson, F. A. English,
w. L. Kincaid, M. F. O'Brien and
Mrs. Ethel Renlinger of White
Bluffs attended the tax foreclosure
sale in Prosser last Saturday. They
report that although there was in the
neiahborhood of $50 600 in tax liens
against property in various parts of
the county involved in the sale, there
was little interest taken by the pub
lie, and as result most of the pro-
peyty up for sale will: be decided to the
county. Nearly all of the property in
the vicinity of White Bluffs that was
listed in the published summons as
being over five years delinquent in
taxes, was redeemed by the owners
prior to the sale.
Quite little acreage and a large
number of lots in the town of Han
ford owned by the Agathan Land
company, were included in the list
up for sale Saturday and although
Charles M. Sanford of Portland, for
mer manager for the company, was
present he bid in only four or five
lots in Hanford. F. A. English pur-
SHdScu AOI III TIC NOItn part OF CuS
town of White Bluffs and M. F.
O'Brien bid in the Griffiths 100 acres
north Of town. This is a choice piece
of property, close in and good soil,
and could probably have been sold
at one time for $100 an acre. Thece
was a mortgage of $500 on the
land but neither the owner
of the land or the man who held the
mortgage showed up at the sale and
Mr.. O'Brien got the place for the
delinquent taxes, interest and cost of
sale, in all amounting to around
$4,000. Under the law, the owner bar
red from redemption after the sale and
such sale also wipes out any mort
gage liens.

ment tracts north of town which he
has now all under cultivation. They
will make their home on this tract,
and Mrs. Kern's former home in town
will be rented. The best wishes of the

COOPERATION PROGRESSING

Cooperative marketing is getting on
stable basis through slow, nat
ural growth, according to C. L. Chris
tensen of Washington, d. c., chief of
the division of cooperative market
ing in the Us1ited States department
of agriculture. Mr.. Christensen was in
Yakima last Friday making contact
with cooperative associations in Yaki-
ma.
Regarding developments in coop
erative marketing in general, there
are two significant trends" said Mr..
Chrrctensea Zone Of these is that
the existing ecooperatives are strength
en'ng their position by increasing their
efficiency and handling a larger vol
ume of products rather than organic
ing new ones. This is in line with the
trend of business.
another trend among cooperatives
is to select their members. They are
not driving them in, but are selecting
the farmers having the quality OF pro-
duct they can market to advantage.
1t is an effort toward good business,
rather than panacea. Cooperation is
not panacea but a form of business
particularly adapted to the handling
of agricultural products and will be
successful to the extent that it is sup
ported by good farmers and managed
efficiently.
"Only a few cooperatives have been
organized in the last few years. How
ever, in tie aggregate business trans
acted there has been an increase"
The work being done by the divi-
sion which Mr.. Christensen represents
was authorized by the cooperative
marketing law enacted by congress in
June 1926. On the present trip he
is engaged in research and service
work. He called Friday on the Yaki-
ma Fruit Growers association, the
Horticultural Union. the Yakima Fruit
Exchange and the Yakima Dairymen's
association. He is spending two weeks
in the northwest looking into the
cituaticn as regards the cooperative
marketing of apples, wool, dairy pro-
ducts, and prunes.
He has already visited the Wen
atchee. Spokane and certain districts
in western Washington. Friday night
he left for Seattle and Monday he
will 60 to Walla Walia.

Good people, hope you'll surely

Zaar,
Much bigger than ever, they say, by
far.

Boo'ees for babies, and fine hand
kerchiefs;
Vials of perfume-you are welcome
to whiffs;
Goth fer house dresses; swell pill
low cases
And something you use to doll up
your faces.
For swell Christmas gift neat lun-
cheon set,
In my honest opinion, would be your
best bet.
Jellies and jams and jars of chow
chow
In fact, I should say I hardly know
how
To mention all things that you'll find
at this, sale.
It's up to you now. Be there without
fail.
Lest forget, the finest of treats
Will be ready for those who want the
good eats;
Cookies, and cakes some fifteen or
twenty,
And Of fine apple pies there'll sure
be a-plenty.
Now let me say this, my wise Cka,ist-
mas shopper,
You'll find that this sale will sure be
"a whopper.
So keep your eyes peeled for the big
day and date,
And b. there on time, not one minute
late!

START RAILROAD WORK

The Wenatchee Southern has a
crew of men working north from
the main line of the Milwaukee on
the west. side. of the river. at Beverly.
according to wafd received from
Mrs. Grace Sinclair at Beverly. The
crew is not a large one and the act.vi-
ty at this time is probably to keep
alive the Wenatchee Southern fran
chise, the law requiring that GER
tain amount of work be done each
year. Unless some new arrangement
has been made, the proposed rail-
road is not financially able to under
take any great amount Of construc-
ton at this time. Its chances for SUBJ
stantial financial assistance is most
likely to come from the Milwaukee
railroad and the latter will very
probably not be able to give such
assistance until the final order in
the receivership is issued by the In
terstate Commerce Commission.
Railroad officials say that they are
hopeful that this order will be made
within the next month or two but
that it is possible the commission
will not take action until next spring.
