Warden Da'rymple has scarcely left his of fice since the prison delivery of Wednesday evening, but declares that his proper place Is at his desk where by telephone he can give such directions to the manhunters is are possible to give. The war den did not leave the office today to attend the funeral of J. M. Hoi man. slain guard, who was a broth er Jif the warden's wife. "It would be a pleasure to me." said the warden, "to take a gun snd go and he'.p scour the county. It wouldn't be as hard work and as nerve wracking as It Is to sit here, but there are men In the field who are Just as capable for that work ss I am, and I couldn't Improve the situation any. Beside, some one has to be here ail the time. There are 500 prisoners here and some of them are Just as bad as those who got away. We might have another breHk at any time." Telenhone calls that poured Into 'he office from the poesemen the first night and day after the break now come In only at very ling In terva's. The warden attributes this to tho fact that the hunters lose their "pep1 when the trail be cnm"s cold. Still he Insists that there has been no relaxing of vlg llence, that he believes all points where the convicts could possibly he In hiding are being combed and that all avenues of escape are be ing guarded. Watchful Waiting Policy. "The passes through the mottn tins pre being watched," the war den said, "but I am not Informed who Is doing It. As for roads en tering cities and towns In nil dlrec lons from Salem, 1 arn reiving on 'he local officers. They never have 'a'l n down in their vigilance and t Bm sure they are on the Job now. nrldges are being taken care of by the state traffic squad." Governor Pierce said today that h" hd not advised Dalrymple as to whether he should go into the field, but was allowing the warden to ue hi. own discretion. "The otiestinn Is too silly to talk about." said the governor. It has been the practice of many former wardens to nartlcipate per sonsllv In msnr manhunts. Former Wsrden Iwson Is ssld to have done this. Warden Harry Mlnot was kl'led bv Otto Hooker, an es caped convict, while chasing Hook er In Linn county. Wardens Stev ens.

In a series of article, appear ing In his "Impressions and Ole servutions" column In the Port land Journal, Kred Lockley la giving the life story of Judge Itlddle, commandant ot the Ore gon State Soldiers Home. Mr. Iyorkley's stories of the early pio neer life in this section of the state are very interesting and he has unearthed some fact, here tofore unknown concerning the settlement days In southern Ore gon. Judge Kiddle Is perhaps one of the best Informed pioneers of the state, being gifted with the faculty of relating happen ings of hla early life that have proved Instructive to those de siring to learn more of the times when the Indians roamed the pasture lands of this great slate. Appoint Gam Wardens Six new deputy state game war dens, each armed with a roving commission have been appointed by Warden Averlll nd these officers will travel In various parts of the stale to make arrests for game law violation, according to word receiv ed here from the state game com mission. Douglas county will prob ably be visited by some of this "fly ing squadron" and they will not re main In any one place long enough to become known to violators. Pack outfits will be provided for the deputies. Reports have come to Warden Averlll that In certain sec tions it Is extremely difficult to ap prehend persons hunting In closed season because the district wardens are known and the violators are tipped off by various means before the wardens have come close to them.

Scarlet West Demand IN the early tlays of the tele phone, when the 1 6-mile cir cuit from Boston to Salem was the longest in existence, an old lady yisited the Boston exchange and asked for a connection to Chicago so she could talk with her son. The need for voicing fliought to far-away places began with the nation's expanding activi ties. Long before the telephone art permitted it, long distance service was demanded. A na tional service was, from the beginning, the beacon of the telephone's founders, and the inspiration of the scientists and engineers whose achievements gradually overcame the obsta cles to the transmission of human speech. .These conquered, national expansion has more and morel been made possible, and the uncertainties of separation have, diminished. Today any com munity in America can talk with any other so promptly and satis factorily that men have difficulty in imagining a time when uni x versal service was an ideal yet tQ be reached.
