Rotary is not an institution, but it is the lengthened shadow of Palil Harris and of many men who served with him. That shadow with its wealth of inspiration and fellowship has already touched forty nations. How far reaching the influence of Rotary may come to be we do'not know. ' "The Ostend convention is now history. From Edinburgh ta Ostend is but six years. Yet the strength of Rotary then was 991 clubs and 70,000 members in nineteen nations. Today -Wb have an international family 6f 2,627 clubs and 128,500 rqjemrpers in forty,, nations. What shall be our - potential sfrength six years hence we dare not guess. . , f "However, we must not' rate Rotary's influence in nunri , bers only, we must live in deeds. , ; u . ?

"I think it will take us more than thirty-three hdurs, though, because of the head winds that we'll run into. I should say it would take us nearer forty honrs to get across." Commander Byrd arrived at the hangar at 4 o'clock, his face set in a stiff grin.

Should he be successful, he in t nds to take off for the mainland of the United States at 6 o'clock, Honolulu time, which is 8 30 San Francisco time, without going tto the island of Kauai, wfrerea spe cial, runway has been built for him. Should the test flight with the lead equivalent to the weight of fuel he will carry on the long hop fail, he will be forced to go to Kauai. With receipt here of reports from Honolulu that Richard Grace 'Hollywood aviator, might hop off on a non-stop flight for California within a few honrs, interest in the Pacific fliers was intensified. Grace hadarece(ved a new pro peller for his plane and was work ing feverishly to make ready fori a start from the "Barking Sands" of Mana, on the island of Kauai. His plane is the Cruixaire type. It has" a 220-horsepower radial type engine, capable of traveling at 120 miles an hour. The craft, loaded, would weigh between 4, 000 and 4.600 pounds. HONOLULU. June 28.

Colo.. June 28. (AP) A call to the government and the nation to turn their at tention and effort to reconstruc tion at home, rather than in Eu rope, was made here, tonight by Senator Borah, republican, Idaho. Speaking at the 23rd annual convention of the International Advertising association, the chair man of the senate foreign rela tions committee, said he was more interested in placing the Missis sippi flood sufferers back in their homes, in the construction of the Great Lakes-to-the-Atlantic water way, and the harnessing of the Colorado river than he was "in the delusive effort to aid Europe." Referring specifically to recent over-production of oil and to the Mississippi flood, Senator Borah said it was clear that the nation should turn its attention to work ing out an intelligent and per manent national policy to 'con serve for use of all the marvel ous natural wealth with which the country had been endowed. Senator Borah declared the can-, cellation of part of the debts owed by the European countries, and the loaning of American billions tp Europe, served but little in re construction there. 'We are not helping the people of Europe, but the war makers of Europe," he warned. "The his tory of Europe during the past 30 days has in it every; element of strife which preceded the war. "The premier of Italy, in a public speech, declares that he i3 on the way to creating an army of five -.million men, to the build ing of a great navy, and to the reconstruction of an air force sec ond to tfone In the world. "The break between Great Brit ain and Russia, the assassination ot the Russian minister in Poland, the executions in Russia have made Europe, mentally and spirit ually, an armed camp. Last Sun day week, the premier of France, at Lurieville. delivered a public address steeped in bitterness and intolerance, tearing open old wounds, summoning the spirits of fear and suspicion and hate. 'The league convenes in an at mosphere of dissension and strife. see neither the advancement or . reconstruction nor aid for peace nor service to humanity in the cancellation of debts under l-such circumstances, or in loaning millions of Americanv money V to Europe. I see the very opposite of these things.

For a time during the day It looked as though they had a defi nite clue, if not the slayer him self, when B. H. Glazer, 28. was taken into custody at Hood River". Glazer was returned here by Police Inspectors Jewell and Heck man. He told a weird tale of the slaying, declaring he knew who did It. but that it, "would take an army of cops to make the arrests.

Mr. Gossett and his wife, an elderly couple are taking a four months tour of theUnited States, having left FloridaMay 16, cross ed the southern states, come up through California, and now are j.Unning a return trip through the northern states. Already they have visited 13 states and Old Mexico. The longest detour he ever took, accord ins to. Mr. Gossett, was the one made necessary by the Mis sissippi flood. Instead of crossing at Baton Rouge, as he had planned he was forced to go hort"h to St. Louis, a detour of 1200 miles. The river at Baton Rouge was 15 miles wide, .he declared. Their itinerary so far has in cluded such famous places as the J Grand Canyon of the Colorado,, the petrified forests, ueam Colorado Springs, and the Garden of the Gods. They had heard much of the Columbia River high way, Mr. Gossett said, and were looking forward to a trip over it. The Salem municipal camp ground compares favorable with camps In every part of the country he has visited, he declared. Arrangements for Prunes Completed by Big Packer PORTLAND, June 28.
