The Congress of the United States,

DIES BILL IS NOT
VOTED BY SENATE
Doak Anti-Labor
Drive Goes On

. WASHINGTON, D. c.. July IL
Blocked by national protest move
ment in which thousands of workers
farmers and intellectuals took part
the Dies Bill for the exclusion and
deportation of militant foreignborr
workers, had not been passed when
the Senate adjourned mere last night
Doak Raids Continue.
The fact that the Dies bill has not
yet been passed by the Senate-and
cannot be considered until Congress
re-convenes in December-is not pre-
venting Secretary of Labor Doak
from continuing his frenzied deporta-
ton drive. The continued arrests of
workers is serving as a warning
against a false sense of victory re-
garding the Dies Bill
It is clear that while the passage
of the bill would make. easier the de-
portation drive against the workers,
Doak and his agents will continue
their campaign against militant labor,
at the same time pushing for the
passage of the bill at the first oppor-
tunity.

the report circU-ated by the Reuter-

Backed BY Fish.

The bill having been reported fa-
vorably by the judiciary committee,
it reached the Senate calendar on
June 81, but action was deferred by
the objection of Senator La Toilette,
who, conscious of the 5o-odd protest
meetings in his own state, Wisconsin,
alone, made a gesture against the bill.
The Dies Bill. sponsored by Con-
gresham Hamilton Fish as part of
the anti-labor program outlined fol-
lowing the investigation" which he
conducted, was introduced in the
House of Representatives by Martin
Dies, Texas congressman, on June
6 and rushed through.

pended in order to push the measure

New York, who for years has been
parading as a professional friend of

Immediately upon the passage Of
the bill the Communist Party, the
International Labor Defense and the
Council for the Protection of the For

campaign against the measure, or

Old Newspaper Files
Tell Early History Here

to the matter. In the first place there
is no good wagon road from White
Bluffs to Pend O'Reille Lake. Indeed
there is no road at all. In the next
place, the machinery for the lake boat
was not freighted over this route-not
taken to White Bluffs--but was freight
ed from Wallula.
In regard to the route to Pend
O'Reille Lake via White Bluffs the
first freight train that attempts it will
prove it's impractability. 1t is sixty
miles above this place, but is no nearer
the lake by any road over which freight
can be taken IN wagons. One, and per-
is that the road must cross a belt of
sand at least five miles in width where
no track is visible for quarter of an
hour after the passing Of a train. Aside
from this, the absence Of wood and
water on the proposed route renders
it impracticable.
But sufficient reason why White
Bluffs can never become the route to
Montana via Pend OReille, is that
goods can be taken from Wallula or
the mouth of the Snake river (ten
miles above here) as cheap and as
quick, and l believe quicker and cheap
er than from White Bluffs; saving
sixty miles of river transportation and
$2250 per ton, the present rate of
freight charged by the o. S. N. Co.
If the above are not sufficient, another
will be found in the fact that steamers
at present can not cross the Hamley
rapids five miles above this place, and

they been able in the spring before
the 9th of April; nor can they be
crossed in the fall later than the mid

I regard one thing as certain; that by
whatever route the freight and travel
goes to Montana, it will not be around

Use Silo to Keep
Hay from Spelling

Stages made from the grasses and
clovers are not usually as high in feed
ing value as that prepared from the
more common silage crops, but many
times a larger percentage of the feed
ing value may be saved by putting it
into the silo instead of letting it bleach
out in the rain, according to Joe G.
Knott, state college assistant professor
of dairy husbandry.
An increasing number Of dairymen
are using silos for the preservation of
feeds that might otherwise be total
loss In certain sections of Washington,
considerable difficulty is experienced at
times in curing hay In many cases
the hay crop is cut into the silo when
it appears that it will be impossible
to cure it properly

our trials and worries, of course, but
when we think of how much better

be a period of five seconds of dark

five minutes at time without any
darkness. The wind roared so we could
hardly hear the thunder The storm
did very little material damage here
in town as buildings and trees are so
thick, but out in the country it wrecked
buildings and blew down lots of trees.
Orchards, especially, suffered Where
there were from ten to fifteen trees in
a home orchard, there would be only
four or five left unchanged. One man
had just one tree left. However, no

Elizabeth Angle To Teach
In Kentucky School

Excerpts from a letter received this
week at the Spokesman office from the
w. S. Angle family at WOODBURY., Ken
lucky, are published in the knowledge
that the news contained in them will
be of much interest to the many
friends of this delightful family, who
left here about three years ago to make
their home In the sunny south Here
they are.
II had intended writing sooner, hop
ing to have good news to tell you but
we did not receive any assurance until
the day after your letter came. The
good news is that Elizabeth has been
offered position as English teacher
in the high school right here in Wood
burn She will get her degree CA. b. at
the end Of the summer term. She has
gone to school almost constantly since
we came here and during this last
year has been working for the English
department, grading papers, and has
earned her room rent that way. She
has made a good record in all of her
studies, nothing below B and very few
of them.
Everyone here seems very much
pleased that she got the position and
can assure you that we certainly are.
This big college right in the county
turning out SO many teachers makes it
very difficult to find place, especially
when one is not we'll known and has
no experience.
"Sadie has her application in, and
is being considered for grade school
position in small town near Wooa-
burn
"Allie still has her job as substitute
for me but she won't have chance
to teach this year. She will probably
go back to school this fall.
"Rena Belle is doing splendid work
as college freshman.
Lewis will be a senior in high school
this fall. He started to grow up, phys
ically, about a year ago and has got
to be quite husky lad, although he
is not yet able to handle his Dad.
He was thrown from the running
board of moving car year ago last
fall and-quite a coincidence he fell
on Wednesday again-broke his collar
bone. That is all of any seriousness
that has happened to any Of us.

NO PROFIT IN G GRADES

If the growers at the state conference in Wen
atchec next month can arrive at some practical
method Of keeping the grades off the CONNER
cal apple markets it is believed they will be doing
a real service for the industry.
No one ever lost money raising Extra Fancies
and in most of the seasons there is some profit in
the Fancies. It is the grade that sinks the grow
er. Even in the good years they seldom return
than harvesting and packing charges and in the
other years the returns are generally in the red
AS it is now they go on the market in competi-
ton with the better grades, not only increasing the
available supply but creating bearish tendency
on the prices for the Extras and Fancies.

Stages composed of a combination
of legumes and grains are familiar to
the western Washington dairyman.
The usual combinations are peas or
vetch with either oats or wheat. Com
plants have been made of excessive
spoilage with this type of silage A
common fault is to allow the grains to
become too ripe. The stems are hollow
and unless water is added or the green
material is well packed the air pres
ent may cause considerable spoilage.
These silages are higher in digestible
crude protein than corn silage and
practically as high in total digestible
nutrients.
Russian thistles have been ensilaged
with varying success. Average results
of sunfower silage indicate that this
source has about 80 per cent the feed
ing value of good corn silage In marry
sections sunfloWers will yield about
twice as much as corn.
Mr.. Knott lists other possibilities for
silage, including Jerusalem artichokes,
pea vines and pods, apple pomace,
husks and stalks of corn, and sugar
beet tops. Many materials that are
not eaten readily by cattle when the
plants are mature and dry will make
fairly satisfactory silage. Frequently
during the process of maturing and
curing, plants become rather unpal-
atable, woody and indigestible. If en-
silaged at the proper stage, a palatable,
nutritious silage often results.

OH, MIR. GARNER, HOW COULD YOU?

We can't imagine what Texas Jack Garner was
thinking about when he failed to include White
Bluffs and Hanford in the list of towns in the state
of Washington in which he wants to construct
federal buildings-with the taxpayers money
using something like $4,000 100000 for them and
similar structures in the other States
We consider this not only a social error but
political blunder and if you are nominated for
president on the Democratic ticket, Mr. Garner,
you can just bet the folks here won't forget the
slight.

By William
Macleod Raine

A story of the cattle
range, a tale of feud and
romance. For years the Nc
Cams and the Starks have
openly carried on a bitter
feud. When Julia Stark
comes home from school in
Los Angeles and sees Will
lam Mccain, there is the
call Of youth to youth. Then
old Stark is found dead with
a bullet hole in his temple
and young Mccain stand
ing by. Almost simultane-
ously there is a shot and
Mccain falls. Enemies
though they are, Julia
nurses him back to life. De-
spising him for what she
believes ne did, yet loving
him for himself-she works
out her own romance.
William Macleod Raine
has given us a story of a
desert feud, of lives filled
with active living, with
great hates, great adven-
lures, great loves "a story
which holds the reader to
the interest of the rapidly
developing plot.

the pattern of the daring Missionaries
who built titanic Chicago out of
q mud-flat pioneer village.
In later years, Letter became in
terested in horse racing. His stable
was estimated to represent an in
ventment of $500,0O0
He was ruled off Arlington park
race track last year when he termed
disqualification of one of his horses
"a damned outrage" but soon was
reinstated.
Among the spectacular things
which gave him public notice was
the raiding of his $4,000 liquor
vaults in Washington. At one time
it was said he purchased Ill pairs
of hose at $l2 pair.
After graduation from Harvard
university Letter plunged into the
Chicago financial world dominated
chiefly by his father, Levi Letter;
Marshall Field and Philip D. Ar
mour.
Letter controlled $4,000 900 of the
Letter properties in 1897, when he
started to buy wheat at 70 cents
bushel. The following spring he
held 100000 bushels of cash wheat
and 100000 of futures, and had
forced the price to $1.85 for a new
high.
Philip D. Armour had sold Letter
100000 bushels of the grain, but
found himself without bushel as
the delivery date approached. He
offered to buy Letter out, but the
young speculator refused $4,000,000
profit, believing he could send prices
higher.
Armour countered by sending Ice
breaking tugs to open the water
routes to Duluth. There Armour
bought 100000 bushels of wheat,
which he dumped on the Chicago
mart. The Letter corner collapsed,
wiping out the paper profits and
$10,000,000 more.
