FEDERAL COURT IS NOT CROWDED U, S. District Aitsmey Says No Extra Judge Needed, None of the "deplorable conditions” in Federal Courts due to congestion of prohibition cases complained of by Attorney General Daugherty when he appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee at Washington Wednesday, exist in Indiana, according to Frederick Van Nuys, United States district attorney. The attorney general told the committee Congress should enact legislation providing for eighteen district judges-at-large, to be aslgned to the more verowded districts and clear up the jam of litigation. Among the cities he named where such a ‘‘jam of litigation” existed ’ was Indianapolis. "There is no necessity for another i judge here to try liquor cases." Mr. Van Nuys said. “This court always has been able to handle all the litigation brought before It, and it never has been crowded beyond its capacity.”

The Pacific Northwest, he declared, had been affected severely. Six of eight months ago it looked dark and most depressing. Some businesses got into difficulties. There had been some failures. But about the middle of July there, were signs of improvement. With thiA improvement came

a better outlook as to The Northwest now looked to marketing from eighty to ninety million bushels of wheat for which the farmer would average 51 a bushel. Os the wool of the 1020 clip 90 per cent was unsold until spring. With the revival of the texP'.e industry a good part of this and of *'_>e 1021 clip was disposed of. The lumber business was improving. The s -re .spot was livestock. The banking situation today was healthy. General deposits were off from the high of 1920 but savings deposits held their own or increased. This /was particularly true of small deposits. Mr. Strauss announced that the last sixty days had brought such an improvement as surprised him. First came betterment in the crops, next better demand for goods generally and third an advance in cotton that put heart and confidence into tens upon tens of thousands of people.

WHOLESALE GROCERS GOT EARLY BUMPS. F. A. Spencer said the wholesale grocery business certainly had its bumps. In sugar alone its losses were $400,000,000. There had been great losses, too, in canned goods. Now there were definite Improvements. All this year s pack of salmon had been sold. It was so, too, of dry fruit. The grocery business had been off 25 to 30 per cent from normal. It began to improve in June and was coming back fast. Daylight was ahead, he declared, bqt with the deflation of prices, merchants generally had a Job ahead of them in reducing overhead, j A. H. Dever said the prospects of genI eral business were here today if Amerj lean merchants did the thing they would ' be forced sooner or later to do and toat was reduce the cost of doing business.

BUSINESS BETTER LAST THREE MONTHS. Mr. Long operates a wholesale establishment. From Oct. 1 t% July 1 his losses had been groat. Alter July 1 there was marked improvement. He was dubious at first as to the lasting qualities of the increased purchasing, but August was better than July and September was exceptionally good. Now it looked as if his 1921 volume would be the heaviest in his career and despite his heavy losses he would show some profit on the year. Mr. Polhemus said Portland’s commerce was broadening in fine style. Bigger ships and more chips wore the proof. The city was doing its part to keep abreast of the needs of commerce. ' Mr. Callan supplemented the statement of Mr. Polhemus by saying so much freight was offering for the Orient that booking will not be obtained earlier than I Jan. 1. Mr. Bishop, whose woolen mill is the

largest west of the Mississippi said that here, as in the East, great activity had come suddenly. He now was working to the maximum capacity night and day having two shifts in some departments and three shifts in others. The packing house people had their troubles, Mr. Durnell declared, and the last year has been a bad one for them, but they fared conditions, greatly increased their efficiency and he looked for a fair showing oh the fall months. Mr. Ainsworth said wonderful crops had done more to ease the very difficult situation of the country bank than most persons appreciated. Mr. Cookingham said Portland’s banks had the 'unique record of using the Federal Reserve less for dediseounts than banks of any other section. He said this was not due to any shirking by the Portland institutions. The proof of this was in the fact that their loans to interior banks were only $21,000,000 IeBS than those of the Federal Resjwve banks Itself. Two things stick out with compelling prominence in Portland. One is the admirable manner in which the port functions. The city authorities work hand in haifd with the railroads, the ship men and all concerned. They aid in every possible way to promote the expeditious handling of cars ana or freight. They assist in switching operations yid plan and hustle always with recognition thht

what helps the shipper or the consigneo helps the port. The other is the Columbia highway. A boulevard has been built along the cliffs on the southern shore of the great river for many miles and, in some cases, under real engineering difficulties, until today another scenic wonderland of unoomparable grandeur and charm is open to the world. For a city supposed to be staid, if not slow, this Philadelphia of the West is snowing, in the way it handles commerce and the way it handles the asset there is in the ecenic of the Columbia, enterprise that may stir some of Its sister cities to livelier action.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company. Turkish Prince Is Seeking Job in U. S. NEW YORK, Oet. 7.—Here is a chance for any employer, anywhere in the United Slates, to obtain a guaranteed title —provided he can find space on his pay roll for a genuine nobleman. Applying at the Knights of Columbus American service bureau in Constantinople for a job, an ex-member cf the sultan’s forces, claiming to be Prince Oshrah y Beni of Abyssinia, 31. unmarried (his harem was left behind in Abyssinia), sayß that he will make any Americana sheik, who, in his own dignified words,

“can honor me with a position in his con- j cern that will provide maintenance in ac- j cord with my status.” The prince’s present status consists of i three square meals per day, with the ; corners knocked off. The only recoin- j mendation that Fred W. Milan, K. of C. supervisor, with whom the prince filed his application, gives the candidate for an American Job is that he’s expert at rolling the “makin’s” for cigarettes. Still, If some American office boss yearns for the Asiatic distinction of sheik, entitling him to wear purple pants, a shovel beard and a turban, the, prince will oblige, ii room can be found on the pay roll.
