wnere Ainore nau named his au
tomobile in a pine thicket near the
road. Moore had been killed by a
shot gun discharged directly into
his face. Mrs. Ihorntous body was
75 feet away. She had evidently
attempted to flee from the assail

of the head. .
Mrs. Thornton, the mother of a
S-year old daughter, had been liv
ing with her parents here during
the absence of her husband. J. C.

Senator Capper of Kansas re
cently gave part of the answer to
the common question: Where docB
the Income tux dollar go that
Uncle Sam collects every year?
Uncle Sam uses a large part of
it to pay the hired men and wo
men he employes.
There are 2,000,000 names oh
his payroll today. Before the war,
in 1013, the work was handled by
1,785,000 people. The increase in
federal workers Is significant. U.tora,

is equivalent to saying that one in
every 10 who work for wages in
the United States gets his pay
check from Uncle Sam.
If you are deluded by the idea
that their wages mean nothing to
you unless you happen to be one
of the 2,600,001) receiving federal
pay it may supprise you to know
that the total federal payroll re
presents a per family tax for the.
entire United States of $12D per
houeshold annually.
The growth of governmental
functions hus made increases im
perative and inevitable. Seuntor
Capper points out the growth of
federal commissions. The nation
al capitols Is (till of them and con
gress is to be asked to create 15
more.
Just 20 years ago there were
only 14 special governmental agen
cies in Washington. Today there
are nearly 100. They formerly
cost the country $1,000,000 a year.
Now the annual cost is $75,000,000,

CHICAGO, Jan. 21. The grow
ing list of nominations for the job
of President Ban Johnson, of the
American league, is a bit - prema
ture, the founder of the league and
its ruler for more than a quarter
or a century intimated today.
Asked whethe rhe had given
thought to resigning, President
Johnson declined to commit hlni-
selr, but did remark:
"1 have been in harness steadily
for thirty-four years."
Under his written contract and
later resolution of league direc-

An Oregon Movie
There is shown this week in
Portland theatre the fruit of those
mysterious activities which last
summer brought the Oregon vill
age of Culp Creek to sudden fume.
The imperturbable Buster Keatou
and his quaint locomotivo, the
tumoral, perform prodigious feats
of valor against a background of
Oregon woods and hills Hint of
fer a pleasant relief from the un
varying palm and r pepper trees
of the films.
No picture has better proved the
fuct that Oregon has a good film
face and that its settings may
greatly enrich the stage scenery of
the screen. We tire of the clean
cut outlines which betray (all-
u, runs until 1935 at $40,000 a
year.
The main issue at next Sunday's
session of the American league di
rectors, Mr. Johnson indicated, is
to decide what to toll Commission
er Landis the following day about
the dismissal of Ty Cobb and Tris
Speaker. There also is bound to
be discussion around the publica
tion of the Dutch Leonard letters,
given the commissioner by the
league directors last September.
All but Johnson signed a waiver
for the commissioner, authorizing
him to use the letters as he saw fit.
If the league directors sustain
their president in his handling of
the Cobb-Speaker case, as they did
last September, the possibilities of
fire works at the commissioner's
hearing the next day largely will
be eliminated.
If they vote to withdraw 'their
support from Johnson, because of
his remarks since the Leonard let
ters were made publlo by the com
missioner, it may mean the resig
nation of Johnson, with indica
tions that he may have something
more to say la that event.

In defense of their title with a
lineup virtually Intact, oxceut for
Manager Sogers Hornsby, traded
to the New York Giants.
Douthit, Southworth and Blades,
all heavy sluggers, probably will
make up tha outer defense.
Blades, who was out of the game
the latter part of last season be
oause of a knee injury, has just
left the hospital and is still on
crutches but expects to be able to
report at training camp.
Except for Frisch instead of
Hornsby at second, the inner cor
don probably will bo the same as
llast year. Sam Breadon considers
jFrlsch the equal of Hornsby as a
I defensive player. And the former
Giant batted .315 last season, or
one point higher than - Hornshv.
I Mho suffered a slump after lead
ing the league for six consecutive
seasons.'
Thevenow, considered by manv
critics as the best shortstop in the
major leagues, again will occupv
that position, with Bottomlev at
first and the slugging L. Bell at
third.
The Cardinal pitching staff will
have its "big four" Alexander the
Great, hero of the world series,
Haines, Sherdel and Kheni and In
addition, Creliihart. Keen. Herman
Bell and Jimmy Ring, the latter

Hod Olarroll, newly appointed
