Mr. Pepper said that while he favored codification of Inter- Sational law as proposed by Chair-? ian Borah of the senate foreign relations committee,, he believed that adherence to the world court should not be to wait completion of this task but rather should be made 'the starting point for clari fication of international . legal practices.

M ' july is raincess; ; first Since 1922 NORMAL JU IX FALL SLIGHTLY UNDER HALF INCH Empires may come and empires may go, but the - merry-go-round and the monkey .will amuse j the cnildren ; ten thousand years hence. .V ;' 1 1 Hottest Day Is Only 04 Degrees; Greatest Daily Variation j Is 38 Degrees Xo rain fell here during the en tire, month of July, the first com pletely dry month since July, 1922, it is shown by the monthly report of Clarence Oliver, local weather observer. The record for this year was nearly equalled in July of 1924 when a slight rain fall on one day moistened the fed eral register just enough so that the-observer was able to report "traces' of rain. i The present dry spell has lasted since June 11, although on June 21 there was a slight precipitation recorded by the observer as "traces." Dry weather at that time closed a long period of rainy weather. j I Normal rainfall for July, as de termined . from official v. govern ment statistics, is .47 of an inch. July is. normally the driest month in the year with the exception of August, which has a rainfall nor-; mally of .41 of an inch. During the month which closed yesterday there were 25' clear days, two cloudy days and four days i that were part cloudy. The mean, temperature for the month was f 69.3 degrees above xero. which Is exactly two degrees above the mean during, the same month! last year and 1.2 degrees above the general , mean. J aly of this year, broke .no individual records so far as temperature is concerned. The hottest day. July 9. fell eight degrees short of the official July maximum, being only 94 degrees above 'zero. Minimum tempera ture, 49 degrees, was reached on Jnly 2 and July 7. The greatest range occurred on the Sth and 9th, with 38 degrees separating the maximum from tb minimum tem peratures on each of those days. The level of the Willamette river at Salem dropped exactly a foot and a half during Jnly, fall ing -from .2 of a foot below nor mal to 1.7 feet below normal.

M. Making Pumping Up Tires Unheccessary ! V., H. Hughes of 2514 Monroe; Chicago, 111., has perfected a new air-tight valve cap that enables auto owners to pump up their tires once and never touch them again until punctured or worn out. Leading tire manufacturers, after thorough tests, have approved Mr, Hughes' invention and banished the old theory that air escapes through rubber. One inflation lasts the life of a tire, and tire mileage is -doubled. These caps retail for $1.23 for set of five. The inventor . wants agents and will send proof and sample free. Write him today.
