Eastern 5000 Veterans Are Moving On Capital Today By- the Associated Press Five thousand men, some footsore. some shabby and many hungry, moved on Washington today from all over the country. They hitch-hiked, commandeered freight trains as they could, rode In trucks and went oil foot - any way to get to Washington and join the 2,600 already bivouacked there to do-. mand payment of tho soldiers' bonus. At Pittsburgh police mobilized at dawn today to Insure order when the j 1,500 men approaching that city from j west and north arrived. Four units i of marchers were escorted quickly! through the city yesterday; Many had no time to eat, so quickly did they move on. At Wilkinsburg, Pa., however, merchants donated food. Two hundred and fifty marchers were given box car transportation by the Pennsylvania railroad from Old Robey, Ind., yesterday and were due in Washington today. At Kansas City 180 men outrnaneuvered police and boarded a freight for St. Louis, while 500 others mobilized at Wichita. A Brawley, Cal., unit of 30 or more men abandoned motor transportation at Yuma, Arts., and continued on by train. Opposition to this method of urg ing bonus payments appeared fre quently today among veterans them selves. The leader of 300 at Dallas resigned as their commander when they refused to leave the railway yards after being warned to do so. A New York ml n Inter who manned a machine gun In the war led the men in prayer for success on their Journey. In Boston a contemplated march was cancelled. At Lincoln, Neb., the executive committee of the Nebraska American Legion characterized the "bonus army" movements as "un American and revolutionary." Railroads were resorting to various plans to discourage efforts to "draft" freight trains. For the most part the railroads sought to avoid any display of force. At GreenBboro, N. C, the Journey of 200 marchers was in terrupted when the railroad company sidetracked a train on which they were riding. Other railroads were de laying movement of freight trains when It appeared the marchers would demand accommodations. The 400 men who were balked at Cleveland In their attempt to com mandeer a freight ride to Washington spent Sunday, m a suburb washing their clothes and laying plans for future action. Various delegations, riding In trucks from points In Michi gan, Illinois and other middle west ern states, continued toward the capital. Talk of communism was heard In several groups, but Invariably the marchers Jndicated thejr would have nothing to do with any "reds" who might be found among them. The delegations that left New York City Saturday split because one group complained the other was composed of communists. Thirty-five Chicago veterans de cided after reaching Ohio to turn back, and took a freight from Toledo, west bound, last night. A new unit- of "several hundred" men was being formed at Lancaster, Pa., and expected to start for Wash ington during the day. None of the marchers has Indi cated any definite plan for urging" 1 assage of the two billion dollar bonus measure other than the hope that the sight of several thousand veterans in the capital may concen trate attention on the bill. Abov the Atmosphere The stratosphere Is the upper por tion of the atmosphere above 11 kilometers, more or less, depending on latitude, season and weather, In which temperuture changes but lit tle with altitude and clouds of wa- I ter never form, and in which there j a practically no convection or dis tribution of the atmospheric equi librium causing winds. It Is often called the Isothermal region; that Is, region of equal temperature. Chinese Americans Under the treaty of 18S2, prohib iting naturalization of Chinese, Im migrants from China, on becoming naturalized, were permitted all the privileges of other citizens, and at the present time Chinese born In the United States have the right of cit izens. The treaty of 1882 was not retroactive and Chinese having the privilege of voting at that time con tinued to do so. Liquor', Effoct, Doctor Johnson had said to me yesterday that Adam Smith was a most disagreeable fellow after he had drunk some wine which he said bubbled In his mouth, lie made a most excellent remark. "Drinking," lie said, "does not Improve Conver sation. It niters the mind so that you are pleased with any conver sation." From James Boswell's Journal, Whale With T.oth Some species of whale. Including the sperm whale and members of the dolphin and porpoise fnmllj have teeth. The sperm whole has 20 to 20 teeth on each side of the lower Jaw, up to four pounds In weight; the upper Jaw has eight pairs of smaller teeth. "APm" Not "Monkey," The terms "ape" and "monkey" In popular language are more or less Interchangeable. Correctly speaking, however, ape refers to any of the large anthropoid primates which nre entirely tailless, and monkey to any of the smaller members of this or der with either short or long tails.

Keep, Boundary "Straight" There is n permanent orgunlzntion called the United States und Mexico international boundary commission at HI Paso, Texas, whose duty Is to at tend to the occasional changes In the boundary line due to the changes In the course of the Rio Grande. Excellent Ufa Rule Let every iluwn of morning be to you us the beginning of life and every setting sun be to you us Its sure record of some kindly tiling done for others, some goodly strength or knowledge gained for yourself. John Rusk In. - Whale Long Hunted Tho beginnings of the whale nail ery nro obscure, but It appears that in the Nintli century the Norwegians sent out vessels In pursuit of whales, perhaps even to Greenland. When the Sea "Call," The culling of the sen Is nn old English term for a ground-swell. When this occurs on u still night the sound is sometimes hoard for miles Inland. Inhabitants or sea side towns looked on it us a sum mons by death. Tennyson refers H tills phenomenon In "Crossing til Bar" "And one clear call for me." Comet's Next Visit Remote Hnlley's comet has a period of 70 yenrs. The latest appearance was in 1010. On April 10 of that year It passed within 05,000,000 miles of the sun. The velocity of the comet at this, its nearest ap proach to the sun, was 54 miles per second. On May 18, 1010, the comet passed within 14,000,000 miles of the earth, at which time the tail had a length of about 20, 000,000 miles.. It is duo to return In 1080. Bitter Expression The expression "Solid pudding against empty praise" -is from Alexander Pope's "Duncind." In olden times kings protected poets, artists and musicians, and frequent ly gave them board and lodging, or a stipend on which to live. When aspiring poets received only praise and needed solid sustenance an empty stomach made the pruise empty. v Dances in Washington's Tim. The minuet and the waltz were among the popular dances of Wash ington's day. So also was the Jig. Among the unusual names of dunces were "The Successful Campaign," "Burgoyno's Defeat" and "Clinton's Retreat." Miss Peggy Chhmpluin Chose "The Successful Campaign" to open the ball when she danced In Newport with General Washing ton. STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION WILL FIGHT "MERGER" (Continued irom Page One) tlve measure. "Under the initiative measure," the board Bald, "petitions for which are now in circulation, the school would be operated next blennlum, not at a saving of 92,000,000 as now outlined, but would require increased appro priation for buildings of several mil lions," and would mean "repudia tion of bonded indebtedness totaling largo sums, and the abandonment of valuable physical plants and prop erties." The report mentioned that "the presidents of both institutions (Ore gon and Oregon State) indicated in their lost biennial reports the Im mediate need of additional buildings to care for their student bodies. "If the two student bodies, total ing 5907 for the falf term of 1031, 5050 for the winter term, and 6215 for the spring term of 1032. were both placed on the Cor vn 11 Is campus tho crowded conditions outlined In the biennial reports would be great ly aggravated and an extensive pro gram would be necessary Immedi ately." Under the proposed agreement, the report declared, less than one thou sand normal school students would have the vast university to them selves an institution comfortably ac commodating 2700 students at this time.

Platform WASHINGTON, Juno 0 VP) Repub lican congressional leaders were de clared today by Senator Wiitson to be In virtual agreement upon a pro hibition plank calling for prompt ac tion by congress for re -submission of prohibition to state conventions. The Indlanan, who leads his party strategy in the senate, said yester day's meeting of Republican legisla tors here and subsequent conversa tions had brought about a "unity of view" on a resubmission plank. The tentative platform declaration as backed by these men calls for enforcement and condemns the sa loon. It's submission provision reads: "Wo favor prompt action by the congress to bring about the resub mission of the eighteenth amend ment to tho people of the several states, acting through non-partisan conventions called for that sole pur poso In accordance with artlclo five to determine whether that amend ment shall bo retained, modified or repealed." As a result of this meeting by the congressional leaders on the con troversial point, Its adoption by the national convention is regarded as certain In Republican quarters at the capltol. dared the school bill has no part In the tax reform program and has been denounced by James Burdettc, of McMlnnvllle, president of the league. "Coming at this time." said Fisher, "the bill to reorganize the entire upper school syatm would place heavy burdens on property owners and It probably would raise taxes throughout the state because It would involve, not merely millions ot dol lars of losses on state private prop erty, but millions for new build ings to accommodate the shifts. Im pairment of millions of dollars In county, city and utility bonds would also be involved. Instead of an economy measure, it might add heav ily to the burdens of the state." "The state tax league Is not in terested In the school bill and will not have any part In It," Burdctte said. "The Marlon county league which has sponsored the school bill Is a purely local organization and the bill represents purely a local movement."

Tho Democrats aro pledged to support It. Meanwhile, tho ways and means! committee, approving the measure! for tho second time due to technical i changes, Bllced $39,060,000 from the total allocated to public buildings, j .Representative Raincy, tho Demo-1 cratte leader, said the changes were "made because of tho decreased build lng costs.'. i . Instead of allotting $83,000,000 for postof floes costing $70,000 the bill now will allow $52,200,000 for $50,000 buildings. '", The $66,000 class, for which the bill previously had allotted $22,440,000, was decreased to a maximum of $36, ooo with a total allocation of $14,- 280,000. . Tho voto by the rules committee waa strictly along party lines. No amendment or points of order onn lie presented and only ono motion to send tho bill back to tho ways and means committee Is to be allowed. Representative Bankhead (D., Ala.) in oresontlnir tho rule Bald "Frankly I It Is d rustle but tho Democratic cau j cub has Instructed me to submit this ' and as long as ho have tho respon jstblllty for this legislation wo aro I going to assume It." Meanwhile, Representative Snell, tho Republican leader, said his col leagues would meet late today to make plans to defeat the Garner pro gram and substitute that of Presi dent Hooer. Tho relief problem also will bo tackled again tomorrow by tho eonato banking committee. ' Chairman Norbeck, (R S. D.) said today tho commltteo, would talk it ovor in executive session in tho morning and might ask Secretary Mills to Join tho discussion later. Tho committee will havo before It both the senate Democratic relief bill and tho measure embodying the ad ministration's plan. Efforts will bo made to reconcile tho plans In tho hope of smoothing tho course of tho legislation when it reached tho senate. Tho principal difference Is that the measure sponsored by five Democratic senators Includes a $500,000,000 fed eral public worka program to bo fi nanced by a bond Ibsuo. To this the administration Is opposed. Both bills provide for using the reconstruction corporation In admin istering the relief contemplated. 73 SENIORS HEAR ADDRESS BY MINISTER (Continued From Page One) counselling them on their way to achievement, introduced the speaker.
