The calling of a special election
to pat before the taxpayers of Sa
lem the question of a general sal
ary increase for the Salem school
, teachers was authorized by the
""Reboot board at its regular meet
ins last night. The move to call
-the special meeting was t made by
Director Frank Neer, seconded by
P. M. Gregory and passed unani
mously by ' th'e .board. ' Another
motion was made and carried to
t instruct the chairman of ) the
f; - school board and the school clerk
to give notice of and call the elec
t tion, which will probably be! held
December 3,
I The question of calling the elec-
V tion excited considerable dlscus
k slott before the motion was finally
made, , the main objections being
v that on such a short notice the
j teachers and board would hardly
have time to put the matter to the
public sufficiently to win the ne-
, , cessary number of. votes to put
the salary- raise across, and that
Tailure of the election might seri
ously Involve the regular budget
. r As for the latter, it was brought
out that the advertisement of the
budget would not be made until
after the election, and the results
of the vote would in no way In
fluence the regular budget as al
ready drawn up,
The readjustment of the salary
schedule as recommended by Sup
erintendent George Hug will ne
cessitate ihe'Ievyiog? of $30,000
While such a schedule will not be
"as high as was anticipated. It will
be sufficient to give the teachers
fa reasonable raise to start with,
x' and the enticement of a "$5 f "raise
v each year for five years if they
stay with Salem.
Mr. Hug submitted to the board
two schedules that he had drawn
up, and when asked by one of the
directors which he would recoin
mend, be stated that he would
- recommend a compromise schedule
that would be half way between
tj the' two he had submitted.
This would make a minimum
Vy tor grade school teachers, normal
school graduates -having nd ex
perience, $1050, and for normal
; school graduates with two years or
' more -outside! experience, $1150.
From there the salaries would be
Increased at the rate of SSO a: year
for five years, making a maximum
for grade school teachers of $1350.
Junior ' high school teachers,
normal school graduates, would
receive $1100. College graduates
with no experience would receive
$1200, and would' increase at the
rate of $50 a year for five years
reaching a maximum for junior
high school teachers of $1500.
The high school teachers would
start at $1250 and receiving
yearly raise of $50 for five years
would attain a maximum of $1550
Grade school teachers not normal
graduates would receive $100 less
than the schedule, and the high
school teachers not college gradu
ates would receive $100 less than
the schednle.

FORMER RAIL HEAD DIES

ALBERT J. EAUMXO HAD
FAITH IX WESTERN ROADS
MILWAUKEE, Wis,., Ndv.'lO.
(By Associated Press.) -Albert J
Karling, former president of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
railroad, died here tonight at the
residence of his daughter, Mrs
Lawrence Fits. Death followed a
lingering illness. '
Mr. Karling, who served as pres
ident of the Milwaukee road'from
1S98 until 1 SI 7, worked up from
a humble position to the head of
the system he served. He began
his rail career as a telegraph oper
ator at Watertown, Wis.,ln 1866
From that humbte beginning he
ran the gauntlet of the usual step
ping stones of railroading until he
reached the' top. He was one of
three presidents of great railroads
that Milwaukee produced.
C It was during the regime of AI
7ert J. Earling as president ef the
'Milwaukee? road that the $77,000.
000' project to extena toe raaa to
the Pacific coast was formulated
He was largely responsible for the
success of that project. Mr.! Earl
ing was a firm believer fri the
northwest and held", the opinion
that the territory to. be served by
the new' extension 'would become
the granary of the world, i
Levy on Autos Also Reduced;
w Surtax Rates Are
- Given Approval
WASHIDNGTON, Nor. 10.
(By Associated Press.) The
bouse ways and means committee
today voted to slash about $11 4,-
000,000 more from the annual
federal tax burden by repealing
most of the excise and special
taxes now in effect ani cutting
substantially the levy on automo
biles. - h -
The committee completed the
revision of rates In preparation
for the drafting of a tax reduc
tion bill-to be presented to the
house next month and estimated
tonight that It had approved re
ductions totalling $308,372,709,
or slightly more than was pro
posed by the treasury.
The committee today also ap
proved the new surtax rates for
which a maximum of 20 per cent
on incomes in excess of $100,000
already had been fixed. The pres
ent maximum Is forty per cent
on Incomes in excess-of $200,000.
Under the new schedule, no
change in rates applying on in
comes under $44,000, would be
made the reductions being effect
ed by broadening to $10,000 each
income .bracket calling for rates
between 15 and 20 per cent.
Automobile levies received the
major part of the excise reduc
tions. ' " - -
The tax on pleasure cars and
motorcycles was trimmed from
five to three per cent, represent
ing a cut of about S40,000,00u
annually in revenue, while repeal
of the levies on automobile
trucks and tires and accessories
was approved accounting for
about $31,000,000 more.
No change was made on the
taxes on admission 'and dues, al
though the committee voted to
exempt legitimate theaters hous-
ng the spoken drama and "high
class musical entertainments,"
from the ten per cent admission
levy if a- provision; susceptible to
adequate administration could be
drawn. ,-. . , ctus .
DOLLAR WANTS VESSELS
NEGOTIATIONS UNDER W A Y
WITH SHIPPING BOARD
PORTLAND. Ore., Nov. 10.
(By Associated Press). "We in
tend to negotiate with the ship
ping board for purchase of the
five 535 steamers we are now
operating out of Seattle to the
Orient," declared R. Stanley Dol
lar, executive head of the Dollar
interests and the Admiral Orien
tal line, who arrived in Portland
today. "If the vessels can be ob
tained at a reasonable figure, we
will undoubtedly buy them."
Reports reached various coast
ports a few days ago via Seattle
to the effect that the Columbia
Pacific Shipping company of Port-1
land intended to buy the five ves
sels. .-'.' . :.- '
Members of the Columbia-Paci
fic company flatly denied this.
"The Pacific coast has done
more in buying vessels than any
other part of the United States,"
Dollar continued. "Los Angeles,
San Francisco, Portland and Seat
tle all have bought vessels.
"The principal bar toward suc
cessful private ownership' is that
the government has not yet sold
itself the idea of private owner
ship.. "For instance', both the army
arid navy are operating transports
in competition with private ton
nage. They lose tctween $700,-
000 and $800,000 a year iii opera
tion out of San Francisco' alone.'

Spirit of Kindliness and Es

. Evans Hughes
COURT ADHERENCE ASKED
Former Secretary of State Urges
Support to Permanent
Court of Internation
al Justice
NEW YORK, Nov. 10. (By As
sociated Press.) The chief con
tribution of the United States to
the peace of the world lies not in
"declarations calling for the out
lawry of war," former Secretary
of State Charles Evans Hughes
asserted at an armistice eve din
ner in his honor here tonight.
He ssid it lies rather in the ex
hibition of a temperate disposi
tion on questions affecting Inter
national justice, national self re
straint in controversies concerning
the United States and readiness to
assist the government in solving
difficult problems.
Responding to the tributes-of
Elihu Root also a former secre
tary of state and Irving T. Bush,
toastmaster, for his efforts "to
promote" world peace, and inter
national good will," Hughes de
clared that "our most important
service will be found not so much
in any specific act as In the spirit
In which we conduct our foreign
relations." j
"If any nation on earth can
conduct its foreign affairs In a
spirit of kindliness, of esteem, of
regard for the feelings Of others, '
he said, "It is the United Statesv
Our greatest interest is Interna
tional friendship."
Urging adherence to the perm
anent court of International jus
tice, Mr. Hughes said: ;
"We now have an opportunity
without sacrificing any' national
interest to support and buttress
the new Institution to maintain
the supremacy of law among na-
Jlgsj I trust that we shall not
miss tnat opportunity try railing to
support the permanent court ot
international justice."
Presidents Harding j and Cool
idge, Mr. Hughes praised for the
opportunity to reorganize the dip
lomatic service "without inter
ference through demands for
patronage," and to former Secre
tary "Root, he paid tribute for plac
ing the department on a merit
basis. x
The accomplishment of former
Secretary Hughes in eliminating
international discord should be
deemed "in the outstanding
achievement," of his long public
career, declared President Cool
idge in a letter read to the diners
by Mr. Bush.
The letter follows:
"I appreciate sincerely the in
vitation to join with the friends
of Charles Evans Hughes in pay
ing tribute to his work in the
cause of international peace.
"I am Bure that it must be a
cause of great gratification to him
that In a long career of service
marked by so many notable contri
butions to the public welfare, his

LITTLETON, Colo.. Nov. 10.
(By Associated Press.) Althoueh
the defense has rested its case in
the trial of Dr. Harold Elmer Bla
zer, who is charged with the mur
der of his 34-year-old imbecile
daughter Hazel, the presentation
of expert testimony on the ques
tioned insanity of the defendant
continued throughout the day with
the examination of alienists of
fered in rebuttal by the state.
It not only continued through
the day, but was carried over Into
a night session! ordered by Judge
Samuel Johnson in order to speed
up the trial.
"He was insane on the day of
the homicide."
"He was not Insane on the day
of the homicide."
These were the conflicting dif
ferences of opinion paraded before
the jury; as defense and prosecu
tion alienists took the sland.
Prominent in the defense of
the country doctor was Dr. Howell
T, Pershing of Denver, a cousin
of the famous American expe
ditionary force, commander, who
declared that the letters Dr. Bla
zer left to explain his act and di
rect the disposition of his prop
erty "were enough alone to Indi
cate to me that he was suffering
from severe mental disorder."
rne oerense a-ested its case
shortly before noon after Dr.
Pershing concluded his testimony
and Prosecutor Joel E. Stone

several Denver newspaper men and

following the discovery of the life
less body of the "child-woman" in

man. '
They were followed by Dr. Ed

nor melancholia."
Defense experts testified that
Blazer Buffered from one of the

"His spells probably resulted

somewhat over the death of his
wife, it was most unnatural."

the defendant as he returned for

Increased Business Necessitates
Expansion; Salem Men
: Are Queried
The owners of a big tannery, pr
rather a tannery that will grow
arge. under vigorous management,
are knocking at the Industrial door
of Salem for admittance.
They are the owners of the
West Coast Tanning company, of
Portland. Started in a small way
in.-. 1921, this business has increas
ed to the point where their pres
ent facilities are inadequate, end
its managers have made inquiries
of the .Salem Chamber of Com
merce as to a location here, Where
they may be assured of an ample
supply 1 of pure water and where
the city will support their growing
business.
Specialty Manufacturers
The West Coast Tanning com
pany has specialized in tanning
hides Jor supplying, leather to
glove manufacturers, shoe upper
ing manufacturers, shoe uPper
manufacturers and power belt
lacing dealers, and their finished
product has heretofore been ab
sorbed by the Portland market
largely, but on account of the mul
tiplying orders for their superior
grades of finished, leather products
and on account of the numerous
voluntary orders from all over the
coast territory, which cannot now
be accepted, due to lack of facil
ities, the West Coast Tanning
company is seeking a location
where the expansion of their fast
growing business may be taken
care of.
There are produced annually on
the Pacific coast 1,200,000 green
hides, 2,400,04)0 goat and sheep
pelts, and 480,000 calf skins, and
the Portland, market handles an
nually in excess of 200,000 green
hides and 300,000 goat and sheep
pelts, and when one realizes that
over 9 9. per cent of all these hides
are shipped east to be tanned and
returned to the Pacific coast as
finished . leather, - it becomes evl
dent that this is one of the in
dustries we as a community should
foster. N'
Hit? ftnm Antinallv
The Pacific coast consumes an
nually 9,500,000 of finished
leather In, the way of gloves, belt
Ing, automobile accessories, trunks
bags and .miscellaneous, leather
goods products and it Is remark
able that over 99 per cent of this
leather consumed Is now tanned
in the. east from hides which actu
ally originate right here at home,
and we have allowed the eastern
leather tanners to lake ths bus!
ness, which rightfully belongs in
this territory.
The new plant in contemplation
will employ upwards of 30 men
to sjart, and the steady demand
for their superior product seems to
warrant further expansion In
very short time.
