Siberian fur catch now controlled
by Japan, probably would find Its
way to the next Canadian fur auc

action, he said, would depend upon
his report. During 191 i. he said,
the value of furs taken by Japan
out of Siberia was $10,000,000 .

Hoover's Friends Would

NEW YORK. March 24. A na
tional conference of representatives
of state and local Hoover organi
zations will be held In Chicago with
in the next ten days, according to
announcement tonight by John F.
Lucy. temporary chairman of the
Hoover National Republican club.
The conference, he explained, was
for the purpose of co-ordinating ac
tivities for Herbert Hoover as the
Republican presidential nominee.
Dtlegates will be asked to name a
permanent national committee, a
permanent national chairman and to
outline policies and future work for
a Republican Hoover campaign, if
such action seems desirable.

Oregon commenced her paving program late

, Her paving program is only three years old.
Hut it will live a thousand years.
And even then it will be in the heydey of its youth.
Its foundations are sound.
They are imbedded in the solid rock and cement of indirect tax
ation.

. And he predicted that $75,000,000 of this sum would come from
the state and the counties and $2o,000,000 of it from the federal gov
eminent.
; The writer thinks he was conservative.
. After that $100,000,000 shall have been invested in paved high
ways in Oregon in Pacific and Columbia and Roosevelt and other
state highways, and in county market roads, the indirect state taxes
will very soon take up all the burden of renewing and repairing
ithe paved roads, and in extending them gradually

That is an encouraging outlook.
- Oregon will truly have been made over.
A new day of prosperity and happiness and enlightenment will
have been ushered m indeed.
'Instead of 200,000 automobiles in Oregon, as modestly predicted
in the Affirmative Argument for the new state bond extension,
there will then be a million buzz wagons, and then some.

unexpectedly returned?
"What Colossal Luck!"
"I don t know." I returned me-
ehanically. The conviction that
Grace Draper was responsible for the
sinister clippings seemed to have
dulled my faculties.
"Never take anything: for grant
ed." Katherine retorted briskly
"Call her up and we'll soon know for
certain."
I went to the telephone, a tlnv
hope begotten of Katherine's man
ner growing in my heart. And sure
enough. Lillian, herself answered the
telephone.
You blessed child!" she sail
"What colossal lock! Just got in.
not fifteen minutes ago!"
May Katherine and I come up
right away? Something has hap
pened about which I must ask your
advice."
"Don't waste time asking." Lillian
advised merrily. "Take the first
taxi."
We'll do Just that." I returned
and within a few minutes we were
being warmly welcomed by Lillian
in her wonderful brown-toned li
brary, where Detty had just laid
little fire.
"These first days of spring are
pretty raw." Lillian said In explant
tion. as she drew our chairs up De-
fore the hearth.
"Tell Me your Troubles.,t
Her appearance was almost en
ough to make me forget the trouble
which had brought me to her. door
Her face was glowing with exercise
and the crown of softly piled hat
above it with Us wonderful silver
tone made a regal frame. And I
looked In vain for traces of the bu
mttiation and anguish I knew to V
her portion on account of her bus
band's callously brutal treatment n
her. and because of the irony which
had brought Robert Savarin back
into her life too late.
For Lillian was masking whaleve
nnhappiness she might hold In her
heart behind a brilliant smllln;
countenance as In the old days when
in her own words, she was "playing
the game with Harry." and had
masked her graying hair, her slight
ly aging face behind an atrocious
mask of rouge and powder and hair
dye. because her husband. Harry Un
derwood wished her to do so.
Hut I knew also that Lillian could
never be truly unbappy as long as
her little daughter. Marion, from
whom she had been tragically sep
arated for so long and who had but
recently been restored, was with her.
Instinctively I looked around r
the little thing who was never far
from her mother's side. Lillian
took her with her on her trips when
ever possible, and employed a gov
erness instead of sending thv child
to school. Her maternal love for
Marlon was the one strong passion
of her life.
"Where". Marlon?" 1 asked.
Tpatairs asleep, poor little kid
die." her mother returned, and the
smile which the thought of the ehi'd
always brought Irradiated her fac.
"he was so tired from the Journey
that I had scarcely taken off her
wraps and shoes and covered her up
warmly, before she was sound
asleeep. I am afraid I shouldn't
take hr with me on thoe trip.
They're too fatiguing."
"Snd her to me whenever yon
away." I said promptly and sincerely.
"I d love to have her."
"I know It." Lillian Hashed an
arrectionale glance at me. "Rul om
didnt rome here to talk about Mar
Ion. Pit down and tell mo oir
