New Apple Washer
To Be Exhibited
At State College

An effective apple washing machine
will be demonstrated at Washington
State College Friday, April 81. The
demonstration will be, staged at 1880
pm. and will include descriptions of
the machine as well as practical wash
ing tests Of apples that have just been
taken out of storage.
Invitations have been sent to leaders
in the fruit industry and to manu.
facturers Of apple washing machinery
announces Edward @. Johnson, dean
of agriculture and director Of the ag-
ric,ltural experiment station at the
State College Of Washington.
The experimental washer has been
effective in removing spray residues,
below the domestic tolerance both for
arsenic and for lead, from apples which
were sprayed last season with the moss
difficult spray combinations. These
apples were stored without washing,
and taken out of storage and washed
in March of this year.
The washer was designed and con-
structed by representatives of the ag-
ricultural and engineering experiment
stations Of the state college, the Wash
ington committee on the relation Of
electricity to agriculture, and the Wen
atchee Valley Traffic association. Re-
Gently it has been rebuilt so as to in
corporate the new ideas developed
within the last years experimental
work and the more recent experiments
in the laboratories at Washington
State College.
According to Dean Johnson, so far
as it is known it is more effective than
any apple washing machine on the
market. It is believed that certain of
the principles embodied in this ma
chine will be adopted by manufacturers
and also will be used in the remod-
cling and reconstruction of many apple
washing machines now owned by indi-
vidual growers and marketing organi-

The English I class turned humor-
Gus during it's business meeting this
week. The subject, IF Had A Million
Dollars" seemed to possess endless pos
sibilities Most of the members had
the desire to fly to remote regions of
the universe in airplanes and rocket
planes. Travelling around the world in
yachts and airplanes was favorlte
idea. One member desired to become a
bicycle philanthropist, endowing every
child with bicycle.
There were more serious ambitions
also, such as obtaining extern
sive educations, carrying on scientific
research, designing costumes in Paris,
and organizing aviation schools.

GETTING BACK FOREIGN MARKETS

Not the least Of the problems faced by the new
administration is that of foreign trade and it's al
lied problems-war debts world cooperation in
economic Matters monetary revision, and good
foreign relations of all kinds.
It is probable that but small proportion of
the citizens of the United States realize how much
foreign trade used to mean to us. Three or four
years ago it amounted to about ten per cent of
the total national business-and ten per cent often
marked the difference between profit and loss in
the average business. It employed directly and
Indirectly, between three and four million people,
It kept gigantic factories humming to provide the
products and commodities the nations abroad
wanted.
The problem of war debts has been and is bar
rier to the interchange of goods large scale.
Ruinous silver prices have deprived much of the
world of it's buying power Tariff wars and en-
bargoes have worked against imports and exports.
The last administration grappled with the prob
lem, and the new will do the same. Secretary
of State Hull has long been friend Of foreign
trade and it is to be hoped his efforts may pro-
duce results. If some measure of success in slim
ulating international commerce is attained it will
go long way toward solving the problems of I'M
employment and industrial recession in this coun-
try, and will give strong helping hand in the
work of recovery.

Strange as it seems, we aren't going
to grrmble. We have something nice
to say. Did you see the dual track
meet last Friday? It was our idea OF
clean craftsmanship everyone seemed
cheerful, whether they won or lost. We
liked that! It rather takes the joy out
of athletic competition when one is not
fair and square. It was a grand day
too, weatherly speaking, so perhaps
that partly accounts for the good spir-
its of everyone.

AMERICA DESERTS GOLD STANDARD

Withdrawal Wednesday of gold support for the
American dollar in foreign exchanges by the
President was interpreted by financial authorities
to mean the temporary suspension of the tradi-
tional gold standard basis Of currency.
For the past three or four years fnancers have
told us that only hope for stabilized govern
ment the retention of the gold standard
When England, preceded by other nations, desert
ed the gold standard in 1881, grave doubt was ex-
pressed that the United States would be able to
remain firm The United States did maintain it's
traditional gold standard however, and apparently
we were in far better position than other ma
lions.
Doubt soon began to be expressed, though, that
we were so well off, Other nations couldn't buy
products due to the difference in the value of
their money and ours. England for instance, could
sell goods to the Oriental countries for about half
what could, thus robbing us of our foreign mar
kets. Other nations could sell materials to us
nearly as cheaply as we could produce them, even
with our high tariffs.
From the domestic standpoint the Presidents
move increased stock and commodity prices and
brought further rays of sunshine to those who
have produce and other commodities to SELL
When, during the presidential campaign, Candi-
date Roosevelt talked of calling an international
monetary conference, he spoke of the well-known
Yankee trading sense, in promising that
would not give more than we took This, of course
brought to mind the experience of Wilson at
Versailles, and few people put much faith in Am
erica's ability to trade with foreign countries and
come out as well off as they went in.
With the suspension of the gold standard, Pres
ident Roosevelt has another weapon to use in his
trading at the international conferences, soon to
be held in Washington. Our monetary basis is
now the same as that of foreign nations, and we
can barter even basis The President has
now put himself in position to negotiate for a
support of the American dollar in foreign ex-
changes to combat the deprecated currencies of
the foreign nations now off the gold standard. It
would seem that he is as good Yankee horse
trader as he promised he would be-.
The latter part of the quip "We've never lost
a war and never a conference, may not con-
tain so much truth in the future.

Flower. Accommodate Insect.

Many flowers that have their pollen
carried from one plant to another by
special insects that work only in the
daytime, keep their blossoms open only
during the hours when the insects are
at work. Others, such as the honey
suckle, that make use Of the night
flying moths as well as Of bees and
butterflies for their polarization, re-
main open day and night.

Bill was born near Othello, Wash

thusiast. Perhaps we should be more
explicit. It's Ford now, but Ford or
Cadillac, he generally has some sort
of vehicle to "get him there. Bill
spends a great deal Of time on the
tennis court and for further exercise
he is learning to master ballroom

ting away the books that the librarian
before him should have put away
tie that! We don't blame you, we
couldn't make head or tail of that last
