There 'was a conviction that Pin- ohot was seriously "considering enter-. ing the presidential race but he de clined to discuss politics with news paper men. Among those he conferred with were ' Senators Borah,1 of Idaho, :and Johnson, of California, 'who have been prominently -mentibned , as possible opponents of President Hoover. Neither would discuss the conferences. As to the ' Pinchot conferences, It is believed neither Borah nor John- son 'of feVed - great encouragement 1 the anti-Hoover campaign, taking the view that it is almost an insurmount able obstacle to defeat-a president for renbmlnatlon.

The dispatch to the Tass agency from Pelping also said that the Japa nese Mnnchurian forces planned to attack Trans-Baikal province, tut eastern terminus of the Chinese East ern railway, at the same time that the "White" , Russian group was 10 invade Prlrnor province. Karakhan questioned Ambassador Hi rota on four points. First, he called attention to the request of the Japa- neso command at - Horbln for 17 troop trains to move soldiers irom Imienpo to Pogranichni. He said tin request was made "under the pretext of defending the lives of Japanese residents in the latter city," but that it was "not usual, because the troops were expected to be sent to the soviet border." "Such! a matter," he said, "is not within the authority of the board of the Chinese Eastern railway and the soviet government would like to know if the request was made with tno knowledge of the Japanese - govern ment. If it was, the soviet govern ment: wants an explanation." Secondly, Ambassador Hlrota was told the action of the Japanese mili tary command at Harbin in proposing the contract , for reduced rates and free transportation of troops was "of a political character and could not (Continued From Page One) Corey, c ;....;.........-......;..- 0 -l 3 1 Burnett, g 2 '1 4 6 Torrenccvg 0 3 0 3 Munsell, g 10 0 2 Score by quarters : Imbler .. 3 6 7 623 La 'Grande : ....r'4 lf5 "4 1023 Officials t'Fdlgote, referee; Crox- dalc, -umpire; rPeare, tlmjor; ;Sklfff scorer. ;AVallowa Outclassed Wallowa High- was outclassed in' the second' game of xne morning, large ly- because -of -nihe sharp-shooting 'Of Forsythe,' Savage forward, who scored 10 points in the -first half, but played none of the last two periods.

Unchecked, this disgusting, dangerous ailment of ten destroys smell, taste and' hearing, slowly undermines-the general health, Its neglect may make yoira wornout catarrhal -wreck. As catarrh is a disease of-the blood, the only real relief comes from. treat ing the blood itself. So go to Red Cross Drug ' Store 1 or ,;your ' druggist for -an ounce -of Parmlnt (double strength). Take this home and add to It yA pint of hot water and a littlo sugar. (Take a tableepoonful - four times a day. -Drlve the catarrhal poi sorts' from the system by' treating the blood, and 'the disease Itself 'must vanish. 'Parmlnt has proved success ful in so many cases because it acts directly on ' the blood and ' mucous membrane. Life will be much more worth-liv ing if you can breathe freely again, hear-plainly, smell, taste, - and arise In the morning refreshed and strong. with head and - throat free from phlegm.
