WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY jl2. 192 THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM; OREGON 7 ox- us ! raiiira Hard i Surfaced' Highways - Only .Eight -Years Old, . Beautificatiorf Urged " - ''If the . county officials had recommended beautlficatlon or 2the highways 15 years ago. they would hare been recalled and some people might hare wanted to have them. tested for. Banlty. declared Oscar Hayter, prominent Dallas r Attorney, who. addressed members of t the .Salem. Kiwania -elub at. their luncheon Tuesday noon on the matter of beautifi cation,.o the highway between here and Dallas. . He explained that at that time such a thing; as hard surfaced -roads was scarcely known, nl fact.- as he pointed out, the first legislation for hard ' surfaced roads came only, in 1917. so that Oregon's . pared roads i are only about 8 years old. ' f ; But now that Oregon has good roads, she should; do at least as much as her sister state, Calif or- nia towaaeauUfyttgthem.,, : It Is the nurDoae of the orxan lsation which he heads to beautify the Salem-Dallas highway by planting Hawthorne trees at inter- Tals along the highway, on- both ' sides., It is. contemplated to call it the Hawthorne highway. Mr. Hayter declared that Wal nut. trees, or other fruit or nut trees would be impractical at this time, because American tourists are not educated. to the point of Jetting: scenery alone, and would : be . forever molesting; . the trees when the fruit or. the nuts should be ripe. Following, the suggestion of Prof. Hyslop of O AC, Mr. Hayter suggested that the highway should not be planted ''entirely 'with . one , sort of shrub. He suggested, that the Hawthorne , predominate and. that wild flowers, and- other nat ural shrubs be planted at inter vals to prevent any possible mon otony.. ' " ; . In the mean time, with the co operation of those interested in Salem and Dallas, he is endeavor ing to get some idea of the amount of money a beautlficatlon pro gram will - require. When this has - been determined, the, next step will be to devise the method in whicliLtbe money Is to be rais ed. ., Mr Hayter put in. a special plea that tourists refrain from picking wild iiowers ana snruDs He declared, jthat" the wildf flow ers are not so pretty when out of their natural setting, and by tear ing the root, the flowers will not bo replaced for years. . Winnie Braden, secretary of the Dallas chamber of commerce was present at, the luncheon, and spoke a few. words in favor of , the beautlficatlon or the highway. . .

Mirth Greeted With Tears and Laughter If life was made for laughter, whoever attends the Oregon Thea tre while "The Cohens. and Kel lys," the Universal-Jewel, Is the feature, will live a. complete life during the run of the picture. "The Cohens and Kellys," is life jammed with wholesome human touches of pathos and comedy. It is a beautiful painting from the delicate brush of the great artist, Harry, Pollard, the director who put Reginald Denny on the road to success. It is not a farce comedy, but it is drama of the relations between the Irishman and the Jew told with an eye always on the comic possibilities of the "tale. : The Irish policeman who opens his heart, to the Jewish family is played' by Charlie Murray, whose most recent roles have been as a character comedian. He is excep tionally good in this part. Teamed with him in furnishing much of the'comedy Is Kate Price, a real Irish lady from Ireland, while on the other end of the bal ance are Vera Gordon, the famous hit. of "Humoresque" and George Sidney, a stage actor of 32 years experience. These two Jewish players contribute their quota of laughs. . , , . Playing a rather wistful part devoid of comedy, Olive Has brouck, as a romantic lead, gives' a performance of 'dramatic depth that immediately brands her as one of the new school of girls that contributes the stars of tomorrow. Jason Robards does well with his role and Nat Carr is a new find for 4 villain; Not more than a year ago he was the comedian with a large musical show.

Premier Baldwin and other cabinet members this (Wed nesday) forenoon ' LONDON, May 11. (By Asso ciated Press.) Although an un dercurrent of peace was notice able in Londan today and there was much talk of the possibiltiy of an early peace, the government and the leaders of labor did not relax their measures on the one side to overcome the gigantic labor demonstration; and on the other to carry 'on the general strike, which is just beginning its second week. Labor's official mouthpiece, the British Worker, announced the spread of the strike to the men in the engineering and ship building trades, the trades union congress having issued the strike call to the unions in these trades which are affiliated with the congress.
