L. O. Herrold, the well known
mint grower and manager of Lake
Labish land operations, in his talk
yesterday noon to the Salem
Rotary club, hinted at a possible
peppermint oil refinery for this
district.
It was brought out after the
meeting that Mr. Herrold has al
ready launched the project for a
refinery. It will be in the King's
plant on North Front street. As
soon as some field and other work
is nnisnea, Mr. nerroia win in
stall the necessary machinery and
apparatus in a part of that big
plant and install his operating
headquarters there, and be ready
for .the work of refining popper

which he himself controls 'to re
fine. This is contracted for three
years last year and this year and
next to the American Chicle com

took about $16,000 worth of the
Oregon oil which Mr. Herrold con
trols. There will be about 50 per

contract from this year's crop, but

Magazine Article Criticizing Xavy
Sow Regarded as Closed
Incident
WASHINGTON, Sept. 28
(AP) Rear Admiral T. P. Ma
gruder's magazine article criticiz
ing conduct of the navy now is a
closed incident so far as Secre
tary Wilbur is concerned, but in
quiry is going forward to determ
ine whether the officer is liable
to any penalties as a result of a
subsequent interview printed in
the New York Times.
The Saturday Evening -Post
article episode was terminated at
a conference today, arranged at
the telephonic request of Admiral
Magruder in which he expressed
his regret to Secretary Wilbur if
the criticism had caused Mr. Wil
bur any embarrassment. He said
he had no criticism of any official
of the department and had writ
ten the article only with a view
to disseminating use of the usual
information.
The conference hinged chiefly
on jin interview with the admiral
printed in the New York Times in
which he was represented as back
ing up the magazine story with a
vigorous language. Secretary
Wilbur had asked Magruder if he
was correctly quoted in the Inter
view and in reply the admiral
filed with the department a state
ment which he said correctly set
forth his views.
Wilbur declined to make the
statement public but said later
that his understanding was that
Magruder had been misrepre
sented. "That interview did not prop

admiral said after the conference.

rAi;is, Set. sr. cap) The
performances of a medium who
was able not only to displace ob
jects but also to displace himself
without visible means of locomo
tion were cited today before the
International Congress for Psychic
Research by Dr. von Schrenck Not
zing of Munich.
This medium, given the pseudo
nim Karl Weber, raised himself in
the air without wings 35 times
during June, July and August,
1924, Dr. Notzing said. The me
diums position was generally hori
zontal and he remained in the air
at the height of four feet, six inch
es, for about 25 seconds, the doc
tor asserted.
On one occasion thi3 medium
was said to have floated four feet
from the point where he rose into
the air.
Paranoia Cured, Claim
Two cures of paranoia through
the invoking of tha obsessing
spirits were reported by Dr. Walter
Franklin Prince of Boston. He
told of a Mrs. Latimer who told
him that her deceased foster broth
er was upbraiding her. Dr. Prince
said he put the woman to sleep
and then addressed the departed
foster-brother, suggesting that the
latter's own peace Lof mind would
be enhanced if he left Mrs. lya ti
mer alone. This treatment brought
relief at once and cure eventually,
the doctor said.
Dr. Prince also told of a man
who came for treatment for in
ebriety and who showed symptomj
of paranoia. The patient said he
once found himself with a pencil
in his hand and a note which he
had scribbled in front of him,
which was a message from his
niece vho had been dead for some
time. "I am going crazy," the doc
tor quoted the message as saying.
Dr. Prince said he followed the
same treatment as in the Latimer
case and the iman was cured.
Canine Mental Efforts
Other cases brought before the
congress were that of a thinking
dog in Poland and that of Theresa
Neumann, a blind girl of Konners
