CONSERVATION NECESSARY

Flood control programs which mean much
to the Northwest, may receive serious setback
from lobbyists, recent reports indicate.
During the past year, more than ever before,
we have seen the opposition of eastern Industrial
lists to any program which would benefit the West.
This is due, perhaps to the fact that President
Roosevelt has taken an active interest in the prob
lens of the West and is attempting to aid us. Spe
cial interests, working quietly for years. have
had to come into the open in their efforts to fore
stall large developments in this section
To insure the welfare of our country for years
to come, conservation and orderly development
of our natural resources is necessary. Included in
this must be far-sghted program of flood con-
troll such the construction of dams and the pro-
lection of watersheds.
If the Northwest is to be saved from the type of
conditions now prevailing in the midwest, plan
of orderly development and adequate protection
must be followed. If the opposition to such pro-
gram is successful, the further development Of
the Northwest will be set back quarter of
century.

ARE TAXPAYERS INTERESTED?

Each year, towards the end of July, every school
district in the state holds public meeting at
which the proposed budget for the coming year
may be inspected by the taxpayers.
Each year at this time the directors of every
school district march up the stairs of their school
houses and wait patiently for the taxpayers to
arrive. Throughout the state the picture is the
same-but one or two of these taxpayers arrive.
Government of the people, by the people and
for the people is the basis of any democracy. And
yet, given the opportunity, citizens shirk their
responsibilities The carelessness of the taxpayer
is proverbial thing. He seldom becomes truly
aroused, ;nd when he does he finds that his OPP
portunities for expression are limited. And then,
when he does have chance to step forward, to
investigate for himself, to find out exactly and for
what his money is being spent, he just doesn't
show up.

To the Editor

LIZ UllC
If there was ever a time that re-
CURED straight thinking on the part
of the fruit grower, it is the present
If used properly, Government fnanc-
ing offers one of the greatest oppor-
tunities ever offered the fruit grower.
Not only does Government financing
make it possible to secure the needed
growing funds, but it offers the first
and only safe method whereby the
grower has the power to form a true
cooperative With these advantages, ]
have observed one grave danger. The
grower seems to be looking on this
Government financing as temporary
relief measure Decisions are being
made without careful thought given to
the future. RAAC and YVPCA at the
best were and are a temporary bene
fit. Codes or any other similar attempt
will result in the same temporary help
Immediate and true cooperatives are
the only lasting solution.
Soon our representative from the
National House of Representatives will
be visiting us and I suggest that in
stead of hashing over the postoff1ce
appointments, we as individuals in
quire and get from him the exact plan
of a fruit cooperative which the Ma
tional Secretary of Agriculture will
finance.

Paderewski continues to interpret to
the world the finest in music, while
the work of Mime. Curie came to an
end In her recent death at the early
age Of sixty-six.
Marie Curie was born at Warsaw In
Russian Poland in 1867. Although the
wife of Il celebrated French chemist
Pierre Curie, she won distinction in
her own name. Among the most no.
table honors conferred upon her was
the Nobel prize, which was given to
her on two occasions, the only person
who was ever thus favored After the
death of her distinguished husband
she continued her research work at
the Sorbonne in France.
1t is very frequently argued that
career for woman Is incompatible
with the responsibility of being a wife
and mother. Not so with Nine Curle
Between her husband and herself there
was bond Of great love and admira-
ton. She was her husbands helpmate
In his professional work as we'll as the
mistress Of his nome and mother of
his child, for Nine. Curie did have
child. daughter, who married scien
fist. Rumor has it that the daughter
and her husband will now continue the
work of her celebrated parents.
The disease which has baffled the
skill of physicians has been cancer.
With the discovery of radium an I'M
pOrtant advance has been made in ef
fecting cure. When this dreaded
disease is finally conquered humanity
will owe much to the name of Curie
Simplicity Is characteristic of genius.
The request of Nine. Curie was that
no display take place at her funeral.
Observing this request her frail body
was laid to rest In a little cemetery in
Paris. 1t Is beyond reason to think
that either France or Poland will
ever let the world forget its great debt
to the discoverer OF radium.

He was presented with loving cup
at the time of his retirement from
the faculty. having completed so years
of service to the institution. He was
known by thousands of students scat
tered all over the United States.
The knowledge Of chemistry pos

sion in 1918. He was also a member
of the Advisory Board of the Bureau
of Mines from 1917 to 1923.
His outstanding work brought him

Wine there Is in abundance. There

petition comes from France.
Experts believe that If the United

Silk Industry Hit.
The Italian silk industry has been
hard hit by Japanese competition
The Japanese have found means OF
reducing prices to an extent where
Italy cannot compete in many lines.
Undersecretary Alberto Asquini OF
the corporations department said that
the entire production for TIE present
season was held in home warehouses
because it was impossible to market
it abroad except at loss.
Some Italians are seeking union
with other nations to halt japanese
trade increases. Francesca Coppola
one of the leading Italian economists
published an article declaring that SC
long as the white" world lacks unison
against the japanese commercial Of
fensive, it is encouraging "ASiatic
physical aggression"
Premier Mussolini wants to stimu-
late the development of the Italian
motion picture industry, and foreign
films are restricted.
However, the Italian industry shows
little tendency to respond efficiently
to this protective measure and it is
felt that in the interest of other prac-
tical agreements. the government
might grant concessions to American
film companies.

U.S.-ITAL|AN TRADE
EXCHANGE SOUGHT
Rome Proposes Wine and
Silk for Cotton and
Films.

Copyright. 1884. by the Associated Press.
ROME, March 17.-An exchange of
italian wine ard silk for American
cotton and films has been proposed
by experts as a possible basis for an
increase in foreign trade between the
two countries.
There are few points of barter Italy,
however, will permit, because Premier
Benito Mussolini is vigorously pro-
tecting mechanical and farm indus
tries from foreign competition, and
little hope of a lowering of the bar
rlers is seen.
Chief Export Products.
Wine and silk are Italy's two chief
export products. Italy needs a larger
world market, and might be induced
to do something about a mutual ac-
cord which would include American
cotton and the showing of American
movie films it was reported.
On other products the experts
aren't so sure. Talk of barter has
largely been confined to a few items.
Italy is struggling nightly to keep
her automobile industry on a profit
able basis. Unless tariff walls are
kept up, that industry will collapse,
because Italian machines cannot
compete with American cars on a
straight price basis.
In similar fashion, the country is
in the middle of what the Fascists
call battle" which will continue
until most of the products also are on
such a basis.
Cotton is one product outside OF
this plan. Production is being stim-
ulated in the African colonies, but
this colonial fiber does not show any
signs of filling the demand here Cot
