Osservatore Romano, semi-official Vatican organ, yesterday broke Its decision to refrain from editorial comment on the controversy by print ing an account of what It called the sacking on the Episcopal library and chancellery at Prlverno, sixty miles from Rome, on June 1. Rioters broke down the doors, and, the article Bald, tossed valuable books and papers out the windows, defaced a picture of Pope Plus X and scat tered through the streets of the town posters bearing the picture of the present pope.

Juno 10 UFl Chancellor Helnrlch Bruening and Foreign Minister Julius Curtlus of Germany started for home yesterday, closing a visit which they hope will mark a new beginning of Interna tional cooperation. While they talked with the heads of the present British government at Chequers over the weekend they invited Prime Minister Ramsay Mac Donald and Foreign Secretary Arthur Henderson to come to Berlin soon and renew discussion of the economlo problems of the two nations. The British statesmen accepted, but they have not decided when they will make the trip. ThtJ, chancellor and his foreign minister went aboard the British de stroyer Winchester a little after noon and put out to meet the liner Europa In which they will complete the Journey to Hamburg. Beforo he left London the chan cellor said: , "We are gratified and encouraged. The conversations which we had with Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Henderson wll) do much to forward international cooperation In these difficult times. We hope your prime minister will pay us a return visit soon." The Informal conferences at Che quers have created speculation re garding the possibilty of a new deal on lnter-allled debts and German reparations. London's newspapers de voted considerable space to discussion of that possibility. BERLIN, June 10 OP) One of Chancellor Bruentng's first ' tasks when he gets back to his office today after the weekend visit to Chequers will be to subdue the clamor of vari ous political parties for alteration of tho new emergency tax decreet pro mulgated by President Von Hind en burg last Saturday. It Is regarded as certain that he will resist all efforts to change the decrees, despite the heavy burdens they place upon the people, and de mand that they remain ln force without alteration until the repara tions problem can be considered for mally. The chancellor will report first to the president, and members of the cabinet on the visit to England, then he will confer with party leaders on the situation at home. The govern ment 1b represented as being fully aware that the next step ln consider ation of reparations must be the sub mission of definite proposals and de mands. It Is said unofficially that some action of that nature may be expected at the end of this month o: early In July. Appoint Assistant To Carl Jackson WASHINGTON, June 10 (fl1) Ap pointment of John B.

As far as the young people are concerned, their liberal uso of the library In school work and for pleasure Is more or less constant year In and year out. ( u seems, however, tnat wnen peo ple have plenty of money to spend, they indulge ln their favorite lux-1 urles, and come back to their library for entertainment and profit when the pocketbook Is not bulging, "In other words, It Is often tho , ease that the library Is compelled to I rentier its most extensive and valu j able service during those years when i Its sponsors are most inclined to re- i j duce expenditures.

Ti GENERAL Eastern Oregon Light & Power Company Always at Your Service Urges Union for 1932 Campaign The logic of the proposal, in the oplnlno of some observers, is found In the fact that Floyd B. Olson, gov ernor of Minnesota and the first farmer-1 abort te to hold that office, formerly was a democrat, as wero others now In the front ranks of the farmer-labor party. Governor Olson has expressed the view that the third-party movement represented a revolt against contin ued republican domination of state affairs, as well as a demand for a new legislative program. Minnesota has presented a major ity of its popular vote for president to the republicans every four years since 1860 when Its voters first took part In the election, excepting 1912, when Wilson led. In 1016, Charles Evans Hughes, republican, led Wil son with 302 votes, - A combination ot the Btrong farmer-labor vote with the : minority but steadfastly regular democratic vote, would ' easily equal the republican total shown ln the lost elections, some observers contend. In 1038. farmer-labor leaders, in cluding Olson and Senator Henrik Shlpstead, advised members of the party not to entangle the party in the conflctl of the two major na tional parties for president. - In 1924, LoFolIette running as an Independent, received the active support of farmor-labor leaders, re ceiving 339,102 votes to 420,760 for Coolldge, with John W.
