MOTHER IS QUEEN fTODAY WHEN i t ENTIRE: NATION PAYS TRIBUTE , Today is Mother's day, not only in Salem but throughout the -entire country. Perhaps a son or daughter, has been - busy and has postponed the letter tack '.home that means so much,. but no matter how long has been - the :: postponement. Mother forgives - today when she receives the .telegram bearing thoughts of love, the long-neglected letter, the bouquet of flowers or the box of candy. , , - Men, who. have wandered from home pause today and give need to thoughts of . the gray-haired woman, they have left. Somehow they t tjad time to send ' the few words, that, mean so much' tot her. Somehow, no matter how low their financial condition, they, find it possible to purchase and mail that little gift of love, that means more than - fortunes s or heaps of precious jewels.

Mann, held In the county- jail on a forgery charge, was severely grilled' Saturday - by Detectives--Phillips - and Thacka berry, of the Portland police de-J partment, he failed to divulge any information that might lead' the officers to believe he was the mur derer of Martha Gratke, 15-year-r old Portland girl, who was recent ly, killed In her, home. Unable, to place .' the . crime upon the man held here, the detectives returned to Portland, Though he talked readily, Mann evidently.- had something on t his mind, according to Deputy Sheriff Sam Burkhart, who made the ar rest. While he failed to. disclose what this was, the impression wag made upon the questioners that all was hot; as it should be during Mann's past. According; to the Portland of ficers, Mann working , under the guise of a Salvation Army . man, cashed a whole, flock of worthless checks in Portland. He was con victed and sentenced to two years in prison, but paroled from , the bench upon his promise to "go and sin no more." The fact that he had a ' wife and four dependent children was taken into consid eration.
