|Okanogan Man
Is Wreck Victim
Rex Cwinn Killed In Smash Near
Creston Tuesday
Evening

Believed to have fallen asleep at
the wheel or suffered a fainting
spell, william Rex Gwinn. Okano-
gan, was instantly killed when his
car plunged off the highway near
Creston, Washington, Tuesday night.
Gwinn was on his way to Spokane
when the crash occurred.
The body, thrown 40 feet from the
car was found Wednesday morning
by residents of the vicinity who
heard the crash. They searched for
the body in the dark, but were un-
successful until daylight. They said
the crash was heard about II p. m.
GWinn was a salesman for the
Standard Oil company at Okano-
gan and was on his way to attend a
saleSmen's meeting in Spokane. He
was the son of the late w. w.
GWinn, prominent Lincoln county
pioneer.
He was known to have been suf-
fering from appendicitis attacks,
which at times left him uncon-
scious, and friends at Okanogan be-
lieve that such an attack might
have been the cause of the wreck
The body was removed to Daven-
port where funeral services had not
yet been arranged.
He is survived by the widow and
a baby son, who had gone to Spo-
kane to meet him after visiting in
Oregon.

LAND BANK BORROWERS
MAKE PAYMENT RECORD

That Pacific Northwest farmers
are eager, to meet their obligations
to the very best of their ability is
borne out by the unseasonal volume
of mortgage loan payments which
borrowers are making this spring,
officials of the Federal Land bank
of Spokane pridefully declare.
Ordinarily, the peak Of loan pay
ments to the bank is reached In the
fall out of harvest returns. Through
the past year, however, payments
have held up well straight through.
During the past week they spurted
up to more than $5OOOG getting
borrowers this much closer to the
time when they will own their
farms free of indebtedness, which,

Conditions Right
For Late Gardens
Last of Early Vegetables Can Be
Seeded Even Though Frost 4
Danger Still Exists

Washington conditions are gener-
ally suitable for planting the last
of the early garden vegetables such
as leaf lettuce, parsnips, beets, car
rots, chard, early cauliflower, celery
and wrinkled peas, advises DR..
John G. Snyder, State College ex-
tension horticulturist. Although
danger from frosts still exists, these
vegetables will withstand low tenn
poiatures unless the soil is so cold
they will not terminate.
AS the last OF the early vegetables,
with the exception of Wrinkled peas,
have unusually small seeds, care
should be taken to avoid planting
them too deep. This is especially
true if rainy weather is likely to
follow planting. The average depth
for planting ranges from one-half
to three-quarterS of an inch or
slightly deeper in semi-arid regions.
Peas usually develop a better root
system if planted from two to three
inches deep and are better able to
Withstand dry conditions later.
Plant Seed Thick
Variations in depth of planting,
lumpy soil and other conditions Of
ten make 1t difficult to secure good
stand Of the small seeded vege-
tables. \ This can be remedied by
planting the seed thicker than
ordinarily required and thinning the
plants to the correct intervals after
they have come up. When heavy
seeding has been the rule, thinning
should never be neglected or the
plants will be seriously stunted and
the yield greatly reduced. Most of
the early vegetables should be
spaced about an inch apart.
Beets and carrots may be allowed
to reach lead-pencil size before
thinning so that those pulled out
can be used in salads or other
greens. Leaf lettuce can be thinned
as used.
AS soon as the last of the early
vegetables have been planted, the
soil can be prepared for planting Of
the warm temperature vegetables
such as beans and tomatoes about
the middle Of May.

Early Ruling
Expected on
11-Cent Milk

Expected to issue ruling within
the next two or three days. the
State Milk Control Board today was
studying evidence taken yesterday
in five hours of testimony for and
against milk price increases to pro-
ducers, which would mean 11-cents-
a-quart retail milk in the Indianap-
oils area.
Producers have petitioned the
board to approve an increase from
$l.85 to 1920 hundredweight for
Glass l milk. Distributors contend
they can not afford to pay The in
crease without increasing the retail
price l cent to II cents quart and
that such an increase will result in
the farmer losing money.
Winfield Hunt, indianapolis Dis
tributors Council manager, declared
at meeting at the Statehouse at
tended by $50 distributors and pro-
ducers, that a price increase will be
reflected back on both the producer
and consumer.
The farmer, he said, would be in
jured by decreased consumption be-
cause there would be a resultant in
crease among consumers of The use
of lower classification milk. He as
serted the distributors can not af-
ford to absorb the increase because
there is no way of controlling the
bitter competitor for business.

Japan ReStateS Demands


LONDON, Dec. 13.-The naval
conference was thrown into confu-
sion today when Admiral Osami
Nagano was understood to have re-
vi5ed Japan'S proposal that fleet
equality be limited to the navies of
the United States, Great Britain
and Japan.
The head of the japanese delega-
ton was reported to have said today
that Japan would not object to
common upper level for the fleets
of other naval powers as we'll.
Animated discussion ensued dur
ing which the British dominions, ap-
parently in an attempt to discredit
the Japanese suggestion, asked
whether they also would be entitled
to fleets as strong as those of the
three leading sea powers.
The debate ended inconcluSivaly,
leaving some delegates with the i'm
preston that Nagano's intention had
been to extend the parity principle
only to France and Italy.
1t was learned that during yes
terday'S conversations among Nag
ano, Matsuzo Nagai, Davis, Admiral
William H. Standby and Under
Secretary of State William Phillips,
the United States delegates. gave the
Japanese strong assurances the
American Navy does not constitute
a menace to Japan. The Americans
expressed eagerness to disabuse Jap
anese opinion of any contrary i'm
preston.
Nagano is understood to have
replied that he personally was an
admirer of the United States. but
that the japanese people were un-
able to understand why the United
States requires such a large navy"

WASHINGTON, Dec. 49,
The Department of Commerce
reported today that 1885 was
drawing to a close with the
highest industrial production
for any period since the
second quarter of 1880 except
ing a short spasm of unbal-
anced output in the summer
of 1888.
Business profits during the last
three months of 1885 probably will
be higher than for any fourth quar-
ter since 1890, the department said.
A rise in employment and fac
tory pay rolls was indicated in the
departments monthly survey of
business and it was stated that the
factory employment index had adj
vanced four points since June, al
lowing for seasonal gains.
The survey said that while in
dustrial production as whole has
been relatively stable this year, the
balance has improved as the de-
pressed durable goods industries
have gradually assumed more i'm
portance. In the first 10 months
of the year the output of durable
goods increased about one-fourth in
comparison with the like period of
1884"
Auto Plants Take Lead
Although the most important fac
tor in the October employment gain
was the increase in automobile
workers. the Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics reported improvement in en-
ployment in three-fourths of the
manufacturing industries.
Expansion in industrial pay rolls
was accompanied by what is re-
ported as greater than seasonal
increase in farm income.
Freight-car loadings advanced in
an extra-seaSonal rise during the
fall months which eaSed the finan-
cial position of the railroads, al
though only to the extent of reduc-
ing the large deficit of the first
eight months.
Iron and steel production for No
vember was the highest for the
month since 1929

New York Stock Exchange appre-
ciated s12,O00O0O, to $4,000

Selassie's demand that the League

day, for the time being at least, by

of his territory to Italy.

Mr.. Benes said that inasmuch as
the League Council, composed of

would examine the proposals next
there was no need at
this time to summon the assembly.
Benes' decision, however, did not
eliminate the possibility that the

to bring their criticism of the
Franco-British plan into the open.

Italy so far are working out.
If the assembly met-with all

bot on the council could voice their
anger over the peace proposals.
More important, their votes are as
big as those Of the big powers and
it is believed the plan certainly
would be rejected.
In view of the emperor's attitude,
it is considered almost certain here
that Premier Benito Mussolini will
agree to discuss the plan. This
would further weaken the penalties
French newspapers have
reported that Premier Pierre Laval
might seek the repeal of penalties
now applied against Italy if Mus
