LOCAL HOP MEN IGNORANT OF LOAN From what can be learned local hop men have no knowledge of who or what is behind an inquiry made by Attorney William Bristol of Portland in regard to securing loans Washington under the federal marketing act for hop growers and dealers. The attorney general advised Bristol that it would be necessary for hop growers to organize under a cooperative association before such loans could be forthcoming and it was indicated if such an rganization were perfected there would be no difficulty about securing federal ald. The advices from Washington did not state what hop growers or dealers were behind the Bristol inquiry.

Local hop dealers say they know nothing of it. "However," stated T. A. Livesley, prominent dealer, "I have often thought that some such move would be a good thing for a group of growers to band together and get some of this cheap money to tide them over. Perhaps some such step may be worked out." Fishermen Battle Seas in Open Boat Marshfield, Ore.

FLIER ASSERTS WIRES MENACE AT AIR FIELD High praise of the Salem municipal airport on the one hand, coupled with severe criticism of the hazards, north which of it, exist on characterized the road the remarks of Walter Hinton, roundthe- world flier in the naval plane NC-4, who visited the local airport Sunday.

He was enroute by airplane to Portland for a lecture engagement. The particular hazards referred to are the power lines and telephone lines carried on high poles along the Turner road past the northern boundary of the airport. Officials of the public utilities have promised several times to have the obstructions removed. either by placing the poles farther east on state property, if that could be arranged, or by carrying the wires through underground cables for the distance they adjoin the landing field, Lee Eyerly, superintendent of the airport stated. The lines at present are particularly menacing to ships landing from the north at night, as there are no red obstacle warning lights on them and a pilot unfamiliar into them without slightest with the could easily, crash warning.

If warning lights were to be installed, each pole would have to carry its signal, and the city no doubt would be compelled to bear the expense, Eyerly said. Eyerly believes, however, that the utilities have not forgotten promises, made companies. nearly two years ago, and still hopes to see them take some action looking to the elimination of these particular hazards. 2000 GATHER AT CHAMPOEG PARK Nearly 2000 people attended the 88th annual Oregon Founders' day celebration at Champoeg memorial park Saturday with Judge Peter H.

C. Davis, and Elsworth Ricketts a bridge engineer decided that the least that would be done at the camp this year would be the clearing of two or three acres of land, the erection of a cook house and the piping in of the water.
