SIGNS TO GUIDE TOURISTS IXMARKKD DETOURS CACSE . MICH COXFCSIOX. itate Higlmajr Commission to Be gins I'lacadlng Soon; Oregon Cities Asked to Co-operate. SALIiM. Or.. Sept. 6. (Special.) Systematic placarding of the ' detour roads, made necessary because of the improvement of the main trunk lines now In progress throughout Oregon, has been undertaken by the state high way department.. These cards, which will be two feet squaro. will be placed In the hands of resident and divlson engineers of the highway commission and will be in stalled at the intersection of detours and the state roads under improve ment for the guidanoj of tourists. I'nder the plan worked out by the com mission tourists ' who observe direc tions given by these signs will have no trouble in passing through the state over the t-ist roads available under present conditions. . To make the plan even more effec-J tive State Engineer Nunn has sug gested that county courts and com mercial clubs of Or-egon cities co-operate to install similar signs on roads not under the jurisdiction of the state. There has been considerable com plaint from, tourists, according to Mr. Nunn. but he believes much of "this will be .eliminated as soon as the new signs are installed. Many of the detour roads are now unmarked, and in sev eral instances tourists have become confused regarding directions and have traveled many miles from the main highways before discovering their mis take. . Mr. Nunn said he realized what the automobile tourist trade means to Ore gon and his department is willing to do anything in reason to aid travelers. The new road signs are now in making, according to Mr. Nunn. and will be ready for installation within the- next few days. . LEGION TO FfCHT SLACKERS DEPORTATION OF ALIENS BY CONGRESS TO BE DEMANDED. National Spokesman Promises Changes In Personnel in Wash ington, If Necessary." OUT GEOKOE A. THACHER AUTHOR OF NEW OREGON WORK. Xoiahlr Murder Cases in Slate Are Analysed and Expert Opinion Thereon Is Given. "Why Some Men Kill, or Murder Mysteries Revealed' is the title of a new volume dealing with criminology by George A. Thacher. president of the Oregon Prisoners' Aid society and wiily known Oregon criminologist. The book, which deals extensively with crime in Oregon and particularly with some murders which have not yet been solved, will be off the press shortly. The book tS-als extensively with the murders of Mrs. I'aisy Wehrman and con near Scappoose In September, 1911. and of the brutal killing of the Hill family at Ardenwald In June. 1911. It is the author' i contention that John Arthur reauer, ww serving a life sen tence for the Wehrman murder is entirely innocent, and that John Slerka. a mental defective, who confessed the murder several years later, but later repudiated his confession, should be punished. He contends Mr. Ponder should be pardoned... . Both murders, he points out. were committed by sexuel perverts and he delves at some h.nglh in. the history of criminology In an effort to prove his theories. He believes- for instance.' that Will iam Ttiggin. who confessed the .murder of William Booth near Willamina. and for whose murdor Mrs. Booth and Will lam Branson are now serving life sen tences, is guilty of the murder of the Hill f-aanil y. avt Ardenwald- ..Seven year after the Hill murder.

Much is the intention announced in the current number of the American Legion Weekly the official spokesman, of the national veterans' organization. "Congress does not appear to be espe cially enthusiastic or active, at this mo ment in the matter of providing a law to expel the alien slacker from Amer ict." says the Legion in an editorial an nouncement. "If we are correctly In formed the alien slacker is organizing for his own protection and is going to use every effort to hold on to the rich privileges of a country in which he is only a drawback. "But we will venture to predict that organization and propaganda will not save the alien slacker. The American !egion is determined that the alien slacker shall go. It believes his expul sion is In the best interests of America and is not going to forget or weaken for a moment in its fight on this men ace. l;arly action tnroupn congress is earnestly to he hoped for. But if . the struggle lengthens Into a necessity for providing some new personnel in con gress even that obstacle will not deter the united men who were in service in effecting this first step in the new order of things."

MONARCHISTS' ACTIVITY HUNGARY FRIGHTENS. IN Offers Said to Have Been Made to High Personage to Be Ring at Budapest. VIENNA. Aug. 29. (By the Associ ated Press.) Austria is watching the trend of events in Hungary with grow ing apprehension. The future of that former part of the dual monarchy, it is freely said, must have a grave bear ing on Austria's future, which itself is admittedly uncertain.. The present as cendancy of the reactionary elements is feared here to point the road to monarchical government, either by the re-establishment of Hungary as a king dom or the fruition of the reported Roumanian scheme for a' dual Roumanian-Hungarian empire under a Roumanian king. - The activity of the royalist elements of Europe., outside of the Immediate house of Hapsburg, is indicated by re;, ports from apparently good sources that approaches have recently been made to a certain high personage with the intimation that he would be accept able as either king or emperor of Hun gary. According to information here the forthcoming elections in Hungary point Itrongly toward a monarchical success. It is said openly that the Roumanians aie-diligently assisting this movement as appealing to their own ambition of union of the two countries.- DUTY PREVENTS STRIKE Grays Harbor Teachers Declare So ciety's Need Restrains.

One clause in the resolution reads: "That we are' not Insensible to the con dition that renders a school superin tendent's salary less than a mill super intendent's and a teacher's stipend less than a bricklayer's: that our failure to seek a remedy for this condition in the strike is not due to mere passivity or mental inertia, but to a deep con sciousness of an obligation to society in a time when some of its ancient foundations show 'siens of instability."
