URGE LIBRARY FUND
Court Asked to Provide
$500 to Open Library to
County Health Unit
Is Favored.
The annual meeting of the Doug
las County Taxpayers League was
held today at the court house with
an excellent attendance. Practic
ally every part of the county wa
well represented and much Inter
est was shown.
The county office committee was
the first to report recommending
that there be " no change made
from the amounts allowed the vari
ous offices and departments npon
the tentative budget. The commit
tee reported that they had careful
ly investigated the budget and be
lieved that the amounts fixed by
the commission to be in the
proper amounts. The report was
then thrown open to discussion,
each office being treated separ
ately. In the circuit court fund Judge
Hamilton objected to an item of
$900 for district attorney stenog
rapher. He made it plain that he
did not object to the amount but
that It should be charged against
the district attorney's office and
not the circuit court
James Sawyers, county treasurer,
"asked that his allowance for a dep
uty be continued. He has former
ly been granted $900 for a deputy,
and In the tentative budget the
amount was cut to $600. He point
ed out that his office has assumed
a great deal of work In accepting
money direct from the tax office to
be put out on a dally balance
basis, resulting In a large amount
of Interest being received which
otherwise would be lost. Upon his
showing of facts concerning the op
eration of his office the league
went on record as favoring the pay
ment of the full amount of $900 for
a deputy in the treasurer's office.
Sheriff Starmer requested the
reconimendation of the league for
the appointment of an extra deputy
In the sheriff's office. In his budget
he had included $2,000 for this pur
pose, but the amount was cut to
$1,000. He states that since the
state has added all the temporary
onto license work upon the sheriff's
office, and has also withdrawn
much of the money received from
fines in liquor violation cases, that
the work has been greatly Increas
ed In the office, while the receipts
are less.
During the past fifteen years
there has been no increase In the
budget for the sheriff's office, he
states', despite the fact that the
prohibition law has doubled the
work. It has grown to a point
where one man in the field cannot
do the work, demanded of him. He
read budgets from other counties,
where conditions are much less
difficult to meet than In Douglas
county, but where the sheriff's
force Is much larger and the budget
higher. Without any opposition be
ing expressed the league went on
record as favoring an' appropria
tion of $2,000 to pay an extra field
deputy.
The school committee reported
that they favored the adoption of
the amounts provided for school
purposes as outlined by the bud
get committee. Considerable dis
cussion, however, centered around
the office of school supervisor for
which no provision was made. It
was decided to approve the budget
without change and call for a refer
endum among the school district
directors on the matter of continu
ing the office.
Dr. C. H. Bailey presented a
recommendation that the county
court appropriate $500 for the Rose
burg public library. At the pres
ent time the library is open only
to residents of the city, and rural
residents are required to pay a
small fee for the use of books.
Vnon an appropriation of $500 for
library purposes the board has
agreed to allow the free use of the
library to all residents of the
county. After considerable argu
ment, some opposition being ex
nressed bv residents of distant
communities, the recommendation
was adopted.
Thes. Items of business carried
the session up to the noon hour.
The meeting convened again at
1:30 p. m.. with the attendance bet
ter than during the morning, some
Interesting discussions being ex
pected during the afternoon hours.
The proposition of continuing the
heallh nnlt, the action on the O. A

rAanriated Pros hM IRn.)
BERLIN. Nor. 28. President
Von Hindenburg today signed the
bill passed by the reichstag yes
terday, ratifying the security pact
and arbitration treaties negotiat
ed at Locarno.
BERLIN, Nov. 28. Germany
has written the peace treaties of
Locarno on her statute books and
now rests her hopes In anticipat
ing an era of good will so far as
her relations with ber western
and eastern neighbors .are con
cerned. Chancellor Luther and Foreign
Secretary Stresemann will depart
for London tomorrow to be pre
sent and with the representatives
of the other interested countries
officially sign the documents.
The adoption of the Locarno
hill 291 to 174, In the reicbstag
late yesterday, was due to the
widespread conviction that econo
mic expediency made ratification
indispensible.
This argument prevailed over
lack of evidence of readiness on
the part of allied governments to
ameliorate the conditions of the
occupation of the Rhineland.
The enactment of the Mil will
enable Germany to enter the Lea
gue of Nations,
Frank expression was given to
the hope that Germany's relations
with Soviet Russia would con
tinue on a basis of political amity
and cordial economic relations.
With political animosities elml
nated from her relations with
France and Belgium by virtue of
the security pact and arbitration
treaties with those nations, it is
believed in political and industrial
circles that Germany now Is in a
better position to give thought to
her economic Interests in Russia.
When they arrived In London
to sign the treaties, the German
delegates will give the allies no
tice that the German people are
Impatient over the measures of
concessions accorded Germany
by the allies and will seek to have
them enlarged.

WHITE PLAINS. N. Y., Nov 28.
The Rhinelander trial neaiing Its
end finds young Leonard Kip
Rhinelander again under the strain
of the proceedings to annul his
marriage to his dusky wife, Alice
Beatrice Jones. Judge Isaac N.
Mills, counsel for Rhinelander. says
be Is eager to expedite the case
which is telling on bis client. The
ordeal also Is reported to have
brought Rhtnelander's wife to a
point of nervous breakdown.
The suit Is the main topic of
conversation here and gossip cred
its Isaac N. Mills with a plan to
Introduce witnesses when the trial
reopens Monday whose testimony
will be more sensational than any
yet Introduced. Mr. Mills refused
to comment on this beyond saying
that he did not plan a lengthy
cross-examination of the dusky
wife, Alice Jones Rhinelander, or
her father, George Jones, who are
expected to be the next witnesses.
It is predicted that Mrs. Rhine
lander's counsel will ask ber if she
still loves and is willing to effect
reconciliation with the husband
who deserted her a month after
their marriage last year, upon pub
lication of tht fact she had negro
blood. She Is expected to answer
In the affirmative.
Counsel for both sides declined
to comment on a rumor that the
father of Mrs. Jones' white daugh
ter, brought over from England 29
years ago, is now a prosperous bus
iness man living near Poughkeep
sle, N. Y.
Kip Far From Broke.
Mr. Mills laughed at the report
that Rhtnelander's fortune of
$300,000, a legacy from his grand
father, had nearly all been spent In
prosecution of the trial.
"I have no Idea that he spent
anvthing like $300,000," Mr. Mills
said, "and 1 certainly got very lit
tle of It."
Mr. Mills hopes for an early con
clusion of the case. "The strain
Is telling on my client and he Is
aclng rapidly." he said. "Ho Is
almost broken hearted over the
case, and feels deeply the humilia
tion he has undergone. If 1 did not
know that he Is only 22. I would
take him for a man of at least 35."
Counsel for Mrs. Rhinelander ex
pects the rase to reach the Jury
Tuesday afternoon, unless the
plaintiff Introduces surprise wit
nesses In rebuttal.

Attack By Religious Paper
Against American Legion
(Asorbtrt m Uurd Wirt.)
SALEM, Ore.. Nov. 28. Attacks
on the American Legion made in
the November 19 issue of the Chris
tian Century, Chicago publication,
and condemnatory resolutions of
the Omaha council of churches, are
unjustified and unfortunate, declar
ed Brigadier General George A.
White, one of the founders of the
American Legion in France, when
asked today for comment on the
attacks. He was asked if in his
opinion there was any basis for the
Christian Century's contention that
the American Legion has reached
"the parting of the ways" as the
result of alleged disorders at the
recent national convention.
"Denunciation of the American
Legion by the Christian Century,
based on resolutions of the coun
cil of churches at Omaha, "because
of allegations that some of the del
egates at the national Convention
were drunk, said General White,
"is just as narrow and unjustified
as would be a denunciation of
churches by the American Legion
based on charges that some pillars
of the church drink on the sly.

Legion as a whole In fostering and

Lone Exception Refuses to
Deny Co-Eds Privilege
Granted to Males
Over Eighteen.
ALBANY. Ore.. Nov. 28. With
but one exception, presidents of the
independent colleges of Oregon, In
session here Friday and Saturday,
stated that smoking among the
men and women students would
not be tolerated. -The
exception was Norman F.
Coleman, president of Heed Col
lege of Portlaml, who would not
agree that punishment should be
meted out tn the case of co-eds us
ing tobacco.
"Why shonld we distinguish be
tween men and women In the mat
ter of smoking?" asked I'rofessor
Coleman. "At Heed College the
students make their own rules, and
the usn of tobacco Is Included. The
only Interference Is where 'stu
dents under 1 year old wish to
arnoxe. These must have written
consent of parents or guardians."
President L. W. Itlley of Linn
field College, speaking for the col
lege, said that "we would freely
separate from our Institution any
students found using tobacco, and
mat applies to men as well as wo
men." ,
I'reslilent C. W. Greene of Al-
bany College was lust as outspok-:
en. "Cn-ed smokers in Albany are
licit a worry, for we have not one
girl who uses tobacco. If we did
have such a student, no time would
be Inst In getting her nam off the
class rolls. The men students are
affected by this ruling just the
same as the women."
Professor Perisho, of Pacific Col
lege, staled that "Pacific College
docs not allow smoking by either
boys or girls, ir a student is caught
smoking, he is severely reprimand
ed, and If he persists in the habit.
he ceases to be a student at the.
college. This rule, of course, was
made for the men students before
the problems of co-eds using tobac
co was ever thought of, but It
would apply tn women."
"We prohibit the use of tobacco
at PhlloniHth College," said Presi
dent II, Dixon Hoimher. "A girl
has never been kuown to smoke at
Philomath and we try our best to
