KAY AI.ITOTT IU1I) COl'KTNKY Formerly With Imperial Taxi The same night the Oregon state liquor store was entered, but after 'a complete invoice. Manager Walter Leisman reported today that only three pennies In the cash register were missing. No liquor was ston. Leisman took $390 Saturday night for safe-keeping to the police station, a practice he follows regularly, and left only three cents in the cash register. Whoever entered the liquor store first tried to get In through the case ment, drilling holes In the basement door with brace and bit until able to work th latch. But there were more doors to go through so finally they went out and broke the store window on Washington r venue, through which they gained entrance Leisman today, commenting on the robbery. ssJd he hopes that if it ever happened again. It wouldn't be on Saturday night. He lost his usual Sunday off by having to take In voice, to ascertain whether anything was missing from the stock. NEW REPORT TO BE GIVEN ON THE NRA (Continued man Pag Oo dation that the board be abolished at once. It submitted a partial report last night excoriating the NRA. Dsxrow, the chairman, and another member, advocated government ownership and control of Industry. Johnson. NRA administrator, issued a sizzling reply to the report, and de manded the Immediate abolition of the board. Meanwhile Senator Nye (R., N.D.) whose criticism was largely Instru mental in leading to the formation of the board, told reporters the report showed that "many of the codes are working destruction for small bust ness and entrenching monopoly." Senator Borah (R., Idaho) , another critic, withheld comment. The board, which had been asked by President Roosevelt to review the practices of the national recovery ad ministration, stabbed at the heart of NRA's principles of Industrial codes by saying: "Ail competition is savage, wolfish and relentless, and can be nothing else. One may as well dream of mak ing war lady-like as of making com petition fair." The socialistic alternatlve of gov ernment ownership was suggested In a supplementary report signed by Darrow and William O. Thompson of Chicago, former law partner of Dar row. "The choice is between monopoly sustained by government, which Is clearly the trend In the national re covery administration, and a planned ernnnmv u-hlrh ricmArwIii unc Lil 1 7A ownership and control. h,-.. f "The hope of the American people . . . Ilea In th planned use of Am erica's resources following socialization.- ' 'I One member of the board dissented from the Darrow findings In a min ority report. This member, John P. Sinclair, now resigned, denounced the conduct of the majority and la belled Its findings as "at times mis leading and unreliable." There had been no hint of a sup plemental statement such as given out by the Darrow board today. It read In part: "The monopolists and profiteers that were uncovered by the review board's report had their Innings to day and with their attorneys, paid and unpaid, filled the air with their clamors. , The board said here that by In vestigation it had concluded that monopolistic practices existed In cer tain industries and that small enter prises were oppressed. v La Grande Nine Wins And Loses in 2 Games (Continued From Page One) ters scoreless for the ensuing four frames. In Sunday's "affair" Posey went the entire nine Innings for the local squad and was given a comparative safe lead to work on by the La Orande bats men, who (with the assistance of 18 errors by the Elglneers and 12 base blnglest trotted 20 counters across the platter. Posey was master of the game at all times except In the sixth frame. Just after his team-mates had staged a ten-run rally In the fifth. when six Elgin counters were chalked up as a result of four hits, and three errors. Next Sunday the La Orande squad starts the second half of the Blue Mountain League season by playing Elgin a return game at Elgin. Box Score: (Saturday Game) La Orande AB R H PO A E Martin.

Prom eight to tsvelve Inches Is the rule for the widest hats, while even tailored sailors have taken on an additional half-Inch or so. The broad brims are not con fined to cocktail or garden party wear alone; many are designed to step out with a wool street en semble. Some of the brims are as straight, while others curl softly upward at the edge. With them go crowns so shallow they cannot grip the head and many a model must be anchored In place by a rubber band snapped above or below the cluster of curls at the nape of the neck. The curls themselves must be perfectly coifed, for despite the wide brims, the shal low crowns leave the hair much In evidence. Suzy makes som e of the most striking blg-brlmmed hats of the season. One black straw model, with a crown which curls up gently at the edge, has a red velvet crown h!ch Is little more than a hum mock and la held on the head by a black elastic band. A wide deep blue panama with a crown an Inch high has a spear of little field flow ers thrust under the brim on the left and a white panama Is wreathed in red and white popples. Hats with brims five to six Inches wide are shown by the same de signer to war with spring en sembles and tailored suits. One Jaunty brown straw turned down in front and up In back has a feather raking skyward in the front. A nat ural lacquered Japanese straw with a straight six-inch brim Is trimmed with brown grosgraln ribbon. Plat-crowned sailors with brims two Inches wide, worn tilted for ward and held' In place by an elastic band, are favorites. li y. n. i t r WiiH jill fir Li MARKET NEWS CHICAGO WHEAT Open Ulfn .SHH, J1H -W" ......
