Coolidge Kills
Farm Ai<l Bill
President Says Measure
Bureaueratie; Would
Cause Surplus
<Bv United Trpsa)
WASHINGTON, May 23—Presi
dent Coolidge today vetoed for the
second time within two years the
MoNary-Haugen “farm relief bill de
signed to aid stabilization of the
agricultural industry. No chance of
passing the bill over the veto is
seen now.
Action would have to come first
in the senate since that body passed
the bill first but the legislative ;jam
would offer a justifiable excuse to
lay the bill aside.
On passing originally the senate
showed sufficient strength to pass
the measure over a veto but the
votes are lacking in the house ac
cording to the roll call there on the
measure. The bill sets up a federal
farm board appointed by the presi
dent which is to supervise surplus
operations. For surplus operations
a $100,000,000 revolving fund is pro
vided, half allocated to a loan fund,
the other half to equalization fee
operations.
In his veto message accompanying
the bill to congress, the president
pointed out the following as his
objections to the measure:
Its attempted price fixing policy.
The tax characteristics of the
equalizing fee.
The widespread bureaucracy which
it would set up.
TIs encouragement to profiteering
and wasteful distribution by middle
man.
Its stimulation of over production.
Its aid to our foreign agriculture
competitors.
In referring to farm products sur
pluses, the president said:
“The recurring problem of sur
pluses in farm products has long
been a subject of deep concern to
the entire nation, and any economi
cally sound, workable solution of it
would command not only the np
proval but the profound gratitude
of our people. 'The present measure,
however, falls far short of that
most desirable objective; indeed, al
though it purports to provide farm
relief by lessening the cares of our
greatest industry, it not only fails
to accomplish that purpose but actu
ally heaps even higher its burdens
of political control, of distribution
costs, and of foreign competition.

Portland.
W. I'. Maddox of tho political
science department rates Mr. Libby
as one of the most prominent men
engaged in the peace movement, lie
says, “Libby has gained the distinc

1). A. II. blacklist which certainly
entitles him to be heard.”

Last Women s League
Tea Held; Florence

Tlie last Women’s League tea 01
(Tie year was given yesterday aft
(moon in the Woman’s building.
Musical numbers and dancing were
furnished between the hours of 3
and 5.
Florence McNerney is to act as
chairman of the teas for next year,
and will take the place of Glenna
Heacock who has made the plans
for the ones' of this year.
“We believe that the teas this
year have come one step closer to
the ideal of democracy which is
one of Women’s League ideals,”
said (Henna Heacock, chairman of
the teas. “They have given girls
n chance for a social time with
those of other houses and with the
independent women. It has promot
ed, we believe, a more democratic
spirit for it is one of the Lew
places where all girls fpel free to
go for a few minutes of sociality.”
Members of Kwama and Thespian
have served at these affairs, and
because they are representative or
ganizations they have helped girls
make friends with each other.

Geologists Get
C. Dunbar Adds Collection
Of Foraminifera to
Lab Equipment
A Collection of foraminifera from
the Gulf Coast states, Europe, ami
various lopalitics in tlie North At
lantip, has been added to tho equip
ment of the paleontology labora
toiy of the department of geology
by C. P. Dunbar, researeh assistant
of I)r. E. T. Hodge. The fossil speci
mens, 700 in number, represent
material from 28 different hori
zons, ranging in age from the
Creta peons to the recent,
and is a collection of special im
portance to the training of petro
leum geologists as well as having
much scientific interest, according
to E. L. Packard, professor of pale
ontology.
Foraminifera arc small, usually
microscopic, single-celled animals
which are found floating at or near
the surface of the sea, or crawling
along the bottom of the sea where in
certain sections they may be very
abundant.
These small specimens, in order to
be seen, must be mounted on slides.
When examined under a miscoscope
they show a. wide range of form,
each specie having its own charac
teristics. The suggestions of tech
nique in mounting and obtaining
these specimens were acquired by
the donor from association of stu
dents in laboratories and with the
helpful assistance of Professors II.
V. Howe and Ian Campbell of
Louisiana State University, from
where he was graduated.
In the past these shells accumulat
ed in such large quantities as to
form extensive chalk deposits which
occur in various parts of the world.
Foraminifera are of special interest
from the standpoint of geology says
Dunbar, since they are used in the
correlation of various geological
formations, each horizon being char
acterized by a different association
of species. Petroleum geologists are
using them extensively to determine
the geologic column of wells, as they
are so tiny that they are carried up
with the drill cutting and evidence
the depth of the well and its con
tents.

Hikers To Climb
Mountain Peak
Outdoor Club Sponsoring
Trip Next Sunday
The Eugene Outdoor Club will
ilimb Mary’s Peak, the highest
point in the Coast Range, next Sun
day, according to Ed Thurston, who
to lending the trip.
Private cars will take the mem
bers and friends to the base of tiie
mountain. Guests of the club have
been iyvited from "Albany and Cor
vallis. Thurston believes it will bo
possible to drive within five miles
of the summit. lie adds that the
panoramic view from there is worth
hiking that distance many times,
and that the Pacific Ocean may be
seen if the weather is clear enough.
The party will leave the Chamber
of Commerce at 7:00 a. m. Sunday,
May 27, and will return that eve
ning. Anyone interested, whether a
member of the club or not, is invited
h> sign for the trip at the Co-op with
Elmer Adams, or can notify Ed
Thurston at 425-M.
P.oots, preferably hob-nailed, will
be necessaryt as well as one lunch,!
cup and spoon apiece. A fee will
provide for coffee furnished by the
club. Each member of the, party!
will be expected to share the ex- j
pcnse of gas and oil for the trip if.
Ice does not take his own car.
A number of University students
have gone on the Outdoor Club trips
this season. Dr. John Bovard is
piesident of the group, which was j
organized last fall, and is planning:
its first extensive' oulting during
August. A two weeks camp will be
established at the base of the Three
Sisters, in the center of the country
described by Dr. Edwin T. Hodge
ii his “Mount Multnomah.” In fact,
the camp site will be only a short
distance from that of Dr. Hodge’s
group of geology students while
making a survey of the site of the
prehistoric mountain, of which the
Sisters and several smaller peaks
adjacent remain. All of them are
snow-covered almost the year round.
Further information regarding the
ccst and equipment necessary for the
cuting can be liad from Marion Mc
Clain at the Co-op, or from the club
headquarters at 44 West Tenth
street.
English A List Revised;
360 Fail To Take Work
Approximately .100 students who
flunked the English A examination
and are supposed to have taken the
course, have failed to do so, accord- |
ing to the revised list of names, |
made at the registrar’s office. The
list is posted upstairs at Yillard.
According to Ernest Erkilla, who
teaches one of the English A classes, i
seme of the list are seniors, and they
will not be allowed to graduate un
less worked off.
Next year, owing to the increas
ing number of students enrolled in
this course a $10 fee will be
charged, to defray expenses of a
teacher, said Dr. C. V. Boyer, head
of the department. One hour credit
will be given in the course.

The board of regents of the Uni

ANY way you figure it, P.A. is better tobacco.
Take fragrance, for instance. Your well-known
olfactory organ will tell you. And taste—who
can describe that? And mildness—you couldn’t
ask for anything milder.
Yes, Sir, P. A. is cool and comfortable and
mellow and mild. Long-burning, with a good
clean ash. You never tire of P. A. It’s always the
same old friendly smoke. Get yourself a tidy
red tin and check everything I’m telling you!
