THIIAV "I'.Mtls IllllMl" .Ml THlkhiK d arovsk has daily broadcast news 1 and propoganda about the Chinese Kastern railway situation. Mukden has taken the hint and is using1 its radio station for simil ar purposes. Adherence to the facts of the dispute does not appear to be the guiding principle of these rival sta tions. H was tin officially broadcast an nouncement from Mukden which reported the mythical invasion of Manchuria by 10,000 Russian troops August 17, while Khabaro vsk's latest effort is a denunciation of the American department of state for "plotting with the l-'rench government to set up an interna tlonal control commission for the Chines Kastern railway In order to have, a finger" in the pie." The Hussian station added that "the stubborn and crafty Japan ia standing by to protect and improve her Manchurian interests." ADDITION TO BE ERECTED AT HOSPITAL (Continued from Page 1) present structure is no longer ade quate to take euro of tho demand which is expected within tho near future.

Oilier liiiproeuicnts Oilier improvements in the pro gram include a lL'0-ton ice house, located behind tlie hospital, which has jijst been completed; installa tion of an automatic oil burner to heat the entire institution (this is now In progress); and the instal lation of an automatic Otis eleva tor, to replace tho present system of stairways in tho four story .structure. . Also work of redecorating t he interior, costing about $-',50t), hah been under way for the last few months. Tho entire program, when com pleted, will modernize the hospital in every respect, giving La Grande an Institution that will compare favorably with any of Its typo in tho country. $3 0,000 TO BE EXPENDED BYJJOMPANY (Continued from Pago 1) In on the lot and to the electric light company for electricity.
