arovsk has daily broadcast news

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."

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
