I Predicting that the plan evolv
ed will carry into effect President1
Harding's proposal as resubmit
ted and enlarged by President
Coolidge, the senator asserted it
would be nnwlse to annex;: con
ditions to adherence requiring dip
lomatic protest which the presi
dent might be unwilling to - initi
ate. 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. " V K ' h j ;;":
Senator Pepper had little to say
regarding the anthracite situation
o'her than to make it clear that
he had not been approached by
either the operators or miners
with a proposal, that; he. seek to
bring about an agreement on a

Hottest Day Is Only 04 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.
Gilbert contained in a report to
the state board "of control yester
day. - Samples of the water tested
after the three .boys. had .become
ill showed, the, water to be Impure
and the well has since been con
demned. A slight taint of con
tamination was found in a new
well nearby
The new school : building now
under construction will be .ready
for occupancy by this coming fall
or winter, Gilbert told the board.

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.
