Clark Conducts
Active Campaign
For Nomination
PORTLAND (Special) During
the post week. Colonel A. E. Clark,
candidate for the Republican nomin-;
atton for United States senator, has :
elaborated on his preliminary state
ment regarding the Issues In the i
present campaign, in his talks before
grange and taxpayers organizations.
Numerous Invitations to address
farmers of the state have been re
ceived by Colonel Clark and the Yam
hill County Taxpayers league ' has
endorsed his candidacy. The Invi
tations have been accepted and an
itinerary is being prepared that will
send him Into every section of Ore
gon. Colonel Clark's attitude toward
agriculture Is indicated in a state
ment he has just issued and in which
he says:
"Wo must have economic policies
that will place agriculture on an
equality with other industries and
give freer access to the markets of
tho world. There must be more flex
ible credit facilities giving extension
of time for payment of existing fed
eral farm loan bank mortgages,
spreading payments over longer per
iods and a reduction of amount of
periodic payments In proportion as
the principle sum of the mortgage
Is reduced. There should be substi
tuted for the farm board a more effi
cient and economical agency or a
complete reorganization of the board
so as to eliminate excessive salaries,
extravagance and unbusinesslike
practices."
Taxes must be reduced, declared
Col. Clark and he promises to support
every rational move to accomplish
this result.
As to the unemployment situation,
Col. Clark said that a revival of the
lumber industry would greatly relieve
this condition.
'A majority of the workers of this
state must look to the lumber Indus
try for employment. For a number
cf years this great industry has been
fighting for existence and now Is fac
ing bankruptcy. It Is confronted
with high tariffs In foreign markets
and In the meantime Russian lumber
from confiscated forests and pro
duced by forced labor comes Into our
markets. Our lumber has practically
no protection from foreign competi
tion. For years Intelligent leaders
in the lumber industry have sought
laws that would permit of greater
co-operation in controlling produc
tion, stabilizing markets and main
taining standards. They have been
unable to get relief."
Col. Clark was emphatic In de
claring that lands in this state and
all natural resources therof, now held
by the federal government, belong
to the people of Oregon and should
be converted and administered for
their sole benefit. And that so long
as the federal government continues
to hold more than one-half the area
of tho state off the tax rolls as ab
sentee landlord, it should bear Its
Just proportion of the burden of
state taxation.
Col. Clark advised that the people
of the state fight aggressively for
the development of the Columbia
river, the greatest potential source
of hydro-electric water power in the
country. He said we are entitled to
this development as a matter of
right and equity as a federal project.
Health
LONGEVITY
Tho problem of longevity has oc
cupied the minds of men since they
first realized the Inevitability of
death.
Why men die Is a question asked
ttmfi nnrt timn neain. and keenest
minds have striven to find the an
swer. The question does not deal with
rtf.flt.ii riiio tn disease. On that score
much progress has been made and
many an answer found.
The problem centers about death
due to old age. Disease may in a
measure be evaded, but not old age.
The Bible gives man's span of life
as three score .and ten. But It does
not tell us why Just 70 years, and
not twice that number, make up the
sum of man's time on earth.
Scientists have devoted much time
and energy to the study of this mat
ter, with startling results.
The average life of most breeds of
domestic poultry, according to Dr.
Raymond Pearl, of Johns Hopkins, Is
not substantially more than two
years.
Anri vet. n few davs aco was cele
brated the twentieth birthday of a
mass of connective tissue taken from
nhifr hpnrf. nnri artlficiallV CUltl-
-vnted by Dr. Carrel, of the Rocke
feller foundation.
Had that mass of connective tissue
nuin ift. In the chirk it would have
died, with the rest of the organism,
18 years ago.
Removed from the chick and
niareri in ft culture medium from
which the cells can draw food, they
have not only remained living xor
18 years longer than their "normal"
span of life, but they have multi
plied In numbers ana grown in mass.
One must realize that the environ
ment In which these cultured cells
aro growing Is "ideal," In comparison
to that in the living bird. -How
much these observations fend
rfiRrnveries can be aDDlled to tne nv
ing human organism remains to be
determined.
Legend of Starved Rock
Stnrved Rock, which is a pinnacle
on the south side of the valley be
tween LHfea and Ottawa. La Salle
county, Illinois, derived Its name
from the fact that the lust stand
of the Illinl Indians was ronde at
this place. They were besieged by
Inv.nllnf? Irruinnls Imlhinn and held
the rock until their supplies gave
i out, when they were exterminated
Early Date For.
Derby Favorable
To Top Flight
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (ff) There was
loud outcry this year when It was
announced the Kentucky derby would
be run on May 7, one or two weeks
earlier than usual. Some owners
claimed their ellglbles would be de
prived of Just that much time to
train.
But if last year's queen of the
Juveniles, C. V, Whitney's Tip
Flight, is "another Regret," as many
have dubbed her. she need have no
qualms about the early derby date.
Regret, the only filly to capture
derby honors In 67 years of the
race's history, won the 1815 derby on
May 8.
Regret was owned bjr. Harry
Payne Whitney, father of C. V.
Whitney, who Inherited his stables.
It Is young Whitney's hope that his
father's colors will be the first to
deck three derby winners. Harry
Payne Whitneyt won the 1927 derby
with Whiskery, in addition to the
1915 race with Regret.
Back when Regret won the derby,
weights were assigned on the basis
of past records as well as for sex.
New derby weights are fixed at 126
pounds for colts and geldings, with
fillies getting in for five pounds less,
121. Hence Top Flight will have a
five-pound advantage over the re
mainder of the derby field, provid
ing no other filly starts.
Weight Advantages Same
This five-pound advantage Is Iden
tical with the edge Regret had over
the horse which ran second the year
she won. Regret packed 112 pounds.
and the second horse, Pebbles, car
ried 117. Sharpshooter, which ran
third, bore 114, conceding only two
pounds to Regret.
An account of the 1915 derby on
file at Churchill Downs reads: "The
start was good and slow. Regret
quickly took the lead, held It around
the back stretch, and drew away at
tho finish." This Is the way Top
Flight won most of her seven races
last season, finishing her two-year-old
career unbeaten.
It was by no means a mediocre
field that Regret beat. Royal II,
which was among the also rans,
later won the Latonia Derby. Top
Flight also will have an excellent
field with which to compete. Tick
On and Burning Blaze, among last
year's leading juveniles, are listed
as almost certain starters.
Regret Also Favorite
Regret was a favorite in 1915,
paying $7.30to win, $4 to place and
$3.60 to show in the $2 mutuels.
These are the approximate prices
predicted on Top Flight If she wins
this year a favorite but not odds
on. as was Twenty Grand last year.
Regret rah the mile and a quar
ter derby distance In 2:05 2-5, about
average for the derby route. The
track was resurfaced last year before
Twenty Grand raced to his 2:01 -u
record. Prior to that the record was
2:03 3-6, set by Old Rosebud In 1914.
The principal argument against
Top Flight's chances this year are
that fillies cannot hold their own in
distance races with colts. Whether
Top Flight can win races at more
than a mile Is yet to be determined,
but It might be pointed out that the
American record for a mile and a
half. 2:28 3-6, was set by Handy
Andy, a filly, at Latonia In 1027.

Hammer, 107, former Oregon State
college grid star, essayed tho roll of
boxer for his home town fans last
night and before his battle with
Mickey McTimonds, 185, Longview,
had progressed beyond the third
round, seconds of the two gladiators,

calling the affair "no contest."
The referee warned McTimonds he
must keep off the floor and ropes,
where he had been spending time the
official thought should be given over
to opposing Hammer. McTimonds'

LONDON (fl1) Walter Runclman,
president of the board of trade, hoa
three golden rules for "house econ-

"Don't move; every move entails
an expenditure of a lump sum from

"Plumbing Is more important than!
beauty of design.
It Is better to live In a houso that
Is too small for one's purse than one

The ideal, adds Mr. Runciman, is

MASSIE NAMED
AS THE SLAYER
(Continued From Page One)
; With downcast eyes tho accused
naval officer took up his atory at
tho point whero he previously had
told of the criminal attack upon his
wife, Mrs. Thalia Masslo, and how the
affair had burned In his mind. Kaha-
hawal was one of five men accused
of the attack.
Massle proceeded slowly, haltingly,
and looked very small as he sat In
the high backed witness chair. He
clasped and unclasped his hands ner
vously and his mouth twisted as he
gazed at the floor.
Beforo him, with one foot resting
on a slightly raised platform, the
aged Darrow gently drew the story
from the witness.
In a front row scat Mrs. Granville
Fortcscue, Masslc's mother-in-law
, and co-defendant, resumed her weep
ing. Tho other defendants, Albert O.
Jones and E. J. Lord, saf with solemn
faces.
At tho outset Public Prosecutor
John C. Kellcy Interrupted to ask a
clearer statement as to whether
Masslo was to be declared insane
when he shot Kahahawal
"Yes," said Darrow, "We do not
cxpoct Lleutonant Massle to testify
he killed Kahahawal but wo expect
to show ho held the gun when the
shot was fired from it which killed
Kahahawal."
"Then" said Kelley, "we must insist
on knowing If the defense contends
he is suno now."
.Judge Charles S. Davis held it
would not bo necessary to rulo on
that question at bnce. Kelley then
wanted to know, what typo of insan
ity would be pleaded.
imrrow Objects
Darrow objected and said he had
mado quito a study of this question,
"All doctors disagree," said the de
fense attorney.
Barry S. Uhichr associate prose
cutor, arose and insisted upon know
ing "what type of psychosis Massle
labored under,"
"Havo you that Information?" the
judge asked Darrow. '
"Why, no," said Darrow. "There
aro so many names it is doubtful
'even if they would agree on a name."
Jutlgo Davis then asked darrow if
ho knew the name of tho kinds of
insanity.
Darrow said all ho knew was that
tho man was mentally deranged when
tho shooting occurred.
"Very well," said the Judge. "If
counsel for the defense does not
know, I cannot insist that he tell
It:" The Jurist then ordered the
testimony to proceed.
Thus Dorrow drew first blood in
tho fight over the prosecution's ob
jection as to Massle's sanity.
Darrow asked Massle what ho did
when ho learned that the Jury try
ing the five men accused of attack
ing Mrs. Massle had disagreed. Massle
was on duty at sea at the time.
Tho witness said he had received
n message from his wifo saying it
had been a mistrial.
"I couldn't understand It," Masslo
said. Ho stated he then went to see
Eugono Becbo, a lawyer, and retained
him as counsel.
Darrow asked MaBslo what his phy
sical condition was at that tlmo.
Masslo said he could not sleep and
had folt miserable.
"Next," said the naval offlcor, "I

began to hear the vilest rumors about
myself and my wlfo.' .
"What were they?" Darrow asked,
"One was that X was getting at

Was there any truth In them?' V
Certainly not. Another rumor. -
was that I went home the night ot

Massie was attacked) and found my

my own wife.

"Were there any other rumors?"L
Darrow asked. '
"Yes, a worse one."
Masslo stopped. The scratching of
twertty; pencils along the row of
newspaper reporters was the only 1
sound In the room.
Never mind," said Darrow. J
