37 Cents to $35,000.
But Buy Cautiously
Thanks, Ex-Kaiser

(Copyright 1S28 ay Star Company)
SAN SIMEON, Calif. It
you get a good piece of Innd
and take care of it anywhere
in the march of American prog
ress that land will take care
' of you.
For instance: Yesterday Mrs.
CMcLeod paid . $35,000 for
. the Bender lot on Ventura
boulevard in Los Angeles
quite far out. She probably got
a bargain. Eight years ago the
lot sold for $6,500. Sixteen
years ago a syndicate, "taking
a chance of Los Angeles' fu
ture." bought a lot of land, in
chiding that lot, for $50 AN
ACRE. In 1867 the same land
sold for 37 cents an acre.
But remember that some
land now sold for $50 an acre
is not worth $10. SEE what
you buy. and know, for your
self, WHY you buy it before
you invest your money.
And remember that every
American community has its
great bargains and possibilities.
If you cannot make good real
' estate investments where you
are, you will probably make
worse investments elsewhere,
The former Kaiser, who
mu3t have' done some hard
thinking in the last few years,
tells Sylvester Viereck. "Today
the center of gravity which de
I ermines world power - has
rhifted to the United States.
America is master of ' the
k world."
America probably COULD
be master of the world, but to
desire that mastery would be
foolishness. To be masters of
ourselves, mind our business,
develop this country and in
crease the well-being of the av
erage man is a big enough task.
At present this nation is in a
dangerous condition, rich,
tempting, like a fat worm lying
in the path of stray birds.
Every day this nation needs the
warning that Solon gave Croe
sus, displaying proudly his
piles of gold: "Croesus, if any
one comes having better iron
than you have, he will be mas
ter of all that gold."
If any nation comes, having

least.
Nevertheless, Mr .Ex-Kaiser,
we thank you for the compli
ment, as the colored gentleman
said when asked to change a
fifty-dollar bill.
W. R. Hearst will build on
his 250,000-acre ranch here an
astronomical observatory on
a mountain top near the Pa
cific. It is strange how few of the
world's rich men think it worth
while to look out. away from
this earthly patch of real estate.
The termites, incorrectly
called "white ants," spend their
lives underground, driven be
low by fighting ants, and those
termites are content to live
down there, never looking out.
A majority of men are like
them.
Yet the things worth seeing
are all above and outside of
the ocean of air that covers us,
as water covers the fishes.
Dr. V. S. Adams, who di
rects the great observatory on
Mount Wilson, says modern
astronomy counts "billions of
stars" in the cosmic group or
galaxy, to which our sun be
longs. Many of those stars are
a million times as big as our
sun, which is a million times as
big as our earth.
Ptolemy could count only
1,022 stars no telescope,

Conveniences Afforded by
Clean and Sanitary Camps
Are Magnet.
GOOD ROADS HELP
Public Looking to Sections
With Paved Highways
and Good Camps
for Vacations.
A very Interesting report, out
lining activities in which the auto
camps of the state are cooperat
ing, was presented nt the conven-;
tion now in progress by Clinton
Ambrose of Portland, the secre
tary and treasurer of the organi
zation. In commenting upon the
camp ground situation Mr. Am
brose called attention to the re
markable growth of the auto camp
industry in the United States in
the past few years.
"The importance of the auto
campground to the American mo
toring tourist public cannot be
over-emphasized," ho said.
"However, it, like ail other new
enterprises, cau be overdone. Year
by year the traveling, public has
come more and more to rely upon
the automobile tourist camp as a
means of- the annual vacation. This
auto camp business has grown to
such proportions . that were all
auto camps suddenly to be elimi
nated at this time It would be
necessary to forego at least one
half of the contemplated summer
vacations for the coming summer.;
"Since the founding of the first
auto camp some years ago, this
type of accommodation as a factor
In luring the American public to
spend Its vacation In the open,
sleeping in the great outdoors, has
Increased tremendously. It is true
that good highways have been
perhaps the greatest factor in
spreading the desire to tour, but
safe and sanitary camps along the
way, and the assurunce that con
veniences wit) be found, have also
played their part and a very
large part at that in getting the
motorist to enjoy the pleasures of
the summer camping tour. That
auto camps and good roads are a
contributing factor In the encour
aging "of travel is apparent from
the figures obtained of foreign
automobiles registered in Oregon
in 1927, totaling 91.356. Of these,
some 50,000 carried California
license plates, 28,000 Washington
license plates, and the balance
wore from the surrounding states,
the Fast and the South. It is esti
mated .that these tourists left $12.
000.000 In our state. The excellent
character of our highways Is wide
ly known throughout the nation.
They are a lure to the tourist. Bet
ter highways lengthen the life of
the car, they cut the cost of opera
tion and lessen the cost of repairs,
they broaden life. Two weeks or a
month of vacation travel in tjie
summer months can he spent on
on our highway system, with new
beauty and changing scenes un
folded to the traveler every day.
"We are told that Oregon auto
camps are the finest to be found
In any state In the Union. We
have good reason to believe the
truth of these statements. Let us
by courteous treatment and by im
proving sanitary conditions main
tain this reputation. Many of our
camp owners have investments
totaling from $50,000 to $150,000.
Some are not members of this As
sociation, trusting merely to luck
that their investments will ride
the waves of fortune, that ruinous
legislation will not be endcted.
and that ruinous competition will
not be successful in its effort to
destroy them. Certainly, they
would not attempt to conduct their
business wihout fire protection,
anil yet they would attempt in a
sinple-handed manner to conduct
their business affairs, Inviting
ruinous competition and ruinous
legislation. The solution of our
problems lies In unity of purpose
and in co-operation with one an
other and by an organization pow
erful enough to cope with every
regulation that tends to stifle or
interfere with fair and reasonable
conduct of our business.
"However, might I transgress
and suggest to you. as camp own

from the Mlnnewaska today.
The famous plane will be

(Orville Wright, on the de

failure of the Smithsonian

TELLS TEXANS
Missouri Senator Advises
Fellow Democrats to
Get Together.
REPUBLICANS FLAYED
Wants "Public Plunderers,"
"Corruptionists" and
"Bribe Givers" to '
Get the Ax. ".-. .'.
DALLAS, Texas, Feb. 21. In
the fight for "the united and mili
tant democracy" which he demand
ed here last night to bring about
"the return of honesty in govern
ment," Senator James A. Reed, of
Missouri, set out toriuy for Tulsa,
Okla., to continue to spread hisj
doctrine of harmony. i
Opening his western campaign,'
the Missouri democratic preslden-1
tial candidate told his party that
first of all it must be united. He
set out the platform on which he
believed the democratic party can
unit and win.
"The most Important question be
fore the American people," he said,
"Is to drive the republican party
from power; to take this govern
ment out of the hands of hoodlers,
grafters and lobbyists and to place
Its control once more In the hands
of the American people."
Evasive on Candidates.
Emphasizing the (necessity for
party harmony, the Mlssourlan de
clined to discuss presidential can
didacies, "including my own," as
he talked here with some of the
Texas democratic leaders yester
day. With the a ward of their 40
votes in the democratic convention
still In doubt and involved In fac
tional trife, most of the Texans
who streamed into the senator's
hotel room were easily steered by
him from political discussions.
The veteran silver-haired cam
paigner, who Is making his first
bid for the presidency, centered
his opening attack on what ho de
scribed as the "public plunderers"
and "corrupttonlsts" of the Hard
ing and Coolidge administrations.
He called for the "swift and sure
punishment of all public plunder
ers, bribe givers, election corrup
tionlsts and other malefactors."
He departed from his prepared ad
dress to declare for law observ
ance and to denounce racial and
religious prejudices.
Outlines Platform Base.
"Upon other problems we may
be In division," he said frankly,
"but here Is a field on which tho
democratic party can plant its ban
ners: "Return of honesty in govern
ment and re-estahllshmcnt of the
old democratic doctrine.
"The inalienable right of the citi
zen to liberty of conscience with
out coercion, criticism or obloquy.
"Preservation of the right of
freedom of the press, peaceable as
semblage, trial by jury and the re-
esiabllshment of local self-govern
ment and the sovereignty of the
states. ,
"Bringing the federal power
within the limits not only of the
letter but the spirit of the consti
tution. "Abolition of government by
boards and bureaus.
"Equalization of the burdens of
taxation: the repeal of all laws
creating special privileges and the
dismissal of a vist army of spies.
Mioopers, sneaks and Informers.
"Liberation of honest business
from oppressive Interferences by
governmental agents.
"Prosecution aid runirhment of
those who by criminal conspiracy

FOR AGGIDENTIHIS OLD ROUTE
Schwartz Is Absolved From
Responsibility in Auto
Wreck Case. . : ;
LIQUOR WAS ISSUE i
Inquest Given Over Largely
to Effort to Learn
Whether Members of .'
Party Drinking.
A verdict of accidental death,
with no bluino or responsibility at-
: tuched to any person, wua returned
flast night by the coroner's jury
'that inquired into the death of
! Mary Julia Robertson, who was
killed eurly Sunday morning in un
auto accident on the Coos iJay
highwuy. Uolund Schwartz, driver
of the cur In which Mrs. Robertson
met her death, was absolved of
blame in connection with the accl-;
dent. '
The inquest was one of the most
extensive ever held in the county,
thirty-one witnesses being called in
addition to deposition- secured from
two of the principals in the wreck.
The jury was composed of B. W.
Strong, H. C. Parslow, T. II. Ness.
Prank Clemens, H. S. French and
Kurl Vosburgh. The inquest was
conducted by Coroner M. E. Hit
ter, the witnesses being examined
by District Attorney Cordon. Attor
ney J. O. Watson, representing Mr.
Schwartz, was also present but
took no active part In the investi
gation, other than conferring with
the district attorney on one or two
pojntB in connection wUh the ca;f4-
The inquest was attended by a
crowd that packed the courtroom
to overflowing, many being unable
to gain admittance us even stand-1
ing room was taken. The crowd
was noisy, even bordering on j
rowdyism at times, and several !
times it was necessary to threaten j
to clear the courtroom to preserve j
order. , .
Drinking Denied
The principal issue In the Inquest
was whether or not there was any
liquor connected with the accident.
A very careful Investigation was
made to determine whether or not
any of tho members of the party
had been drinking, immediately
prior to tho accident, and while
there was some difference of opin
ion expressed by witnesses on tho
stand, there was nothing to show
conclusively the presence of liq
uor or to Indicate that any of tho
group had been drinking.
Mr. Schwartz testified, when
called as a. witness, that earlier In
the evening, beforo gathering up
tho group to leave Jtoseburg, ho
had had one drink of wine, but
that it was several hours before
tho accident and that he had taken
no other drink during the even
ing, nnd that there
In or about the car. Ho slated Hint
no iiiiu a miiaii uotuo containliiK
wine anil that while ho was Willi
Miss Golden, whom ho escorted to
tho dance, they consumed the
wine .after securing her costume
for the masquerade and (hat after
leaving her at tho Itnmlall home,
where she changed her costume,
ho went on to pick up tho rest of
the party and then, about 1(1
o'clock went out to the Ten Slile
dance. He did not take another
drink that night, ho Insisted.
Flask In Evidence
There was much evidence re
garding a silver flask found on llio
bank a short distance off the road
the flask being Identified as one
belonging to Schwartz. The young
man claimed the flask, but said
that It had had no liquor in it for
sovoral days, and that It was not
containing liquor on Saturday. Two
witnesses clnlmed that they saw
Schwartz throw the flask awav,
one claiming to have heard win
say "Get that d thing out of
here."
After the Jury had retired, how
ever, another witness, Kenneth
Martin, came forward ami vninn.
teered the Information that ho was
tho one who threw the flask bo tho
: Jury was called hack to hear his
j testimony. Mr. Martin was the one
.who discovered Mrs. Robertson's
i body beneath the ear and he said
that when the marhine was turned
back he tried to lift the woman's
body. The flask lay beside her and
In order to keep from dragging
her over It ho picked it up and
tossed it off to tho side of the road
where It was later found. The flask
was corked and was empty when

Complimenting the Oregon Auto
Camp association for Its efforts to

Dr. Frederick D. Strieker, secre
tary of the Oregon Stale Hoard of
Health, spoke this morning before
tho camp owners and managers
meeting at tho Knights of Pythias
hall in the annual state conven
tion. ,Dr. Strieker called attention to
tho importance of providing en
joyable camps In order to keep the
tourists within the state. If a tour

ness, conveniences and courtesy ho
Immediately receives an impres
sion that causes him to hasten nut

ho finds clean, beautiful camps
where his every want is satisfied,
he is tempted to remain longer In
the state and goes homo proclaim
ing to his friends the Joy of a tour
in Oregon, and the entire state

Dr. Strieker stated that ho has
no sympathy for the Individual who
sets up an auto camp without
first determining the laws govern
ing such camps.
"Oregon has a certain set of laws
and rules governing auto camps,"
Dr. Strieker sald,"these laws helium
practically Identical with those of
Washington nnd California. There
Is no reason why people starting
nuto camps should not first study
these rules and build their campsac

do not do so, and It Is hard for me
to be sympathetic with them when
they come complaining about the
cost of making the necessary
