Civic Consciousness sis
Aroused By the Co-Opera
alive Efforts of People :
James Lynch, former president
of the San Francisco Rotary club
addressed the Salem Rotary club
on "Civic Consciousness," at their
regular meeting Wednesday noon
at the Marion hotel.
"Cities are individualistic," he
said. "Some have just grown up
like Topsy and others have been
deliberately planned. New York
is a city: that grew up without
planning, while Washington. D. C
was a city designed by the father
of our country.
"Our buildings, streets, and
other civic improvements are the
expressions of our ideals. : It is
the very concepts of our thinking.
You know, I am Inclined to use
as text. Just as though I were go
ing to preach a sermon. If I were
to choose a text it would be this:
'As a man thinketh in h'.s heart
so he."
Just so cities are an expression
of the collective thinking of the
individuals. This in turn is re
placed by a collective thinking.
"A man will only take out of
the community, just what he puts
In. Consequently, what we need
is more collective, community
thinking and less individualistic
tiilnking of the selfish type. -The
success of the community depends
upon the cooperative eiforts that
are made by the citizens. It is
not that a few must gain, but that
the greatest good for the greatest
number must be followed.
"A Chamber of Commerce sup
Plies that unit by which the cen
tralized efforts of the citizens of
Salem can be made effective. It
will be by these means that the
success of the city . is brought
about." - i '
The Salem Rotary club voted
this noon to adopt a blue felt
crush hat bearing the Rotary in
signa, as the official hat of the
club. The hats are to be worn at
the Rotary conference and conven
tions.

: fusion and Fraud
CHEYENNE. Wyo.. March 1 1.
(By the Associated Press).
De positional testimony showing
there were numerous applicants
besides Harry F. Sinclair for the
lease of Teapot Dome naval oil
reserve was given today in the
trial of the government's suit in i
equity fo.r annulment of the lease'
obtained ,by .the Mammoth Oil
company, a Sinclair concern.' "
The government alleges the
lease was obtained through collu
sion and fraud between Sinclair
and Albert B. Fall, former secre
tary of the interior. The testi
mony showed that several appli
cants for the lease, while believ
ing their proposals still were un
der consideration by the interior
department, received information
from unofficial, but not official
sources, that the reserve had been
leased to Sinclair's corporation, t
The introduction of depositions!
testimony will continue tomorrow
according to "plans of the govern
ment's special oil conncil. Owen J.
Roberts and Atlee Pomerene.
Testimony given by Beatty
Shafer and Helms referred to the
expressed desire of Secretary Fall
to lease the naval reserve to an
independent oil producer and the
letter's alleged attitude that Sin

pendent. Webf ooters Defeat Juniors

Search for Mate to Black
Squirrel Ends m Failure
i E. BFUike local animal train
er (and conductor of the famons
"Petland" declares he has the only
unique pet sanlfl ln the world.
Mel has , two male Jet black squir
rels,' and from all inquiries there
.rinn others Host like these two.
Attempts hate been made In rar-
ions parts ,ot tne wniwo oiv
to secure a mate for the animals
here, but the efforts hare been in
vain. ' - ' '
Some time ago Mr. Flake had
three jet black squirrels, but by
inadvertence the female of the
species escaped and he was unable
to capture her. In an attempt to
secure another female, inquiries
were sent to toos of large cities
such as New York. Cincinnati and
toj different sections of , Canada,
where It was reported the animals
could be found. Nowhere In the
east was it possible to get In touch
with anyone who knew about the
squirrels or where they could be
procured.
As a result of his efforts Mr.
Flake has come to the conclusion
that he has the last two animals of
a species of the squirrels that are
nearly extinct. The animals are
of the same size and form as the
silver grey squirrels, and are of
remarkable beauty. Instead of
having the beautiful grey coat,
the animals have jet black, shin
ing fur. ,
