Oregon nuniness Devotes Issue to
Success of Salcin and
. Vicinity
The unparalleled progress the
city of Salem has made in the past
five years is well set forth in the
October issue of Oregon Business,
state chamber of commerce pub
lication. It is designated the
Marion county number.
Articles written by Mayor T. A.
LIvesley. Colonel W. B. Bertram,
Robert C. Paulus. U. S. Page, and
Ivan Stewart appear in the maga
zine, each setting forth some par
ticular phase of Salem's and Mar
ion county's development.
Mayor LIvesley summarises the
advance the city has made in pop
ulation; building, and calls par
ticular attention to the improve
ment program for more and bet
ter bridges, sewers, and fire
fighting equipment.
"It is a pleasure to serve the
people of Salem as mayor," writes
Mayor Livesley, "because the city
is riding on the wings of progress.
Too conservative? I should say
not."
Colonel Bartram presents Sa
lem's new industry, the linen man
ufactories, in. an interesting arti
cle. The fact that already Salem
is able to compete successfully
with large manufacturing plants
in Belfast, Ireland, traditionally
the home of good linen, is cited
by the Colonel as good evidence
that the Willamette valley fjx
product is superior tu -quaiity to
any manufactured elsewhere.
l Favored by nature as one of
the'-sreat fruit and berry districts
of the northwest, and aided by the
extremely low rate at which its
canned goods may be delivered to
the. millions of people on the At
lantic coast and in Europe, Mar
ion; county, declares Mr. Paulus,
who is one of the outstanding can
nery men of this section, is des
tined to remain as the greatest
canning center of the northwest.
President Page, of the local
chamber of commerce, reviews the
farming and industrial advantages
of the eounty, and Mr. Stewart
takes up the same subject more in
detail.
The absence of waste land in
the farming belt and the great
areas of bottom and prairie land
make Marion county farming
easier than in any other county of
the valley. Mr.: Stewart points out.
Peppermint and nut growing
advantages of the county are brief
ly summarized in the issue.

PORTLAND, Oct. 22. -(AP)
Stanford university's dazzling
combination of speed and power
overwhelmed the Oregon State

left the Aggies in the wake of a

the profusion was wonderful to

Center of Progressive Farming
District to Make Request
of Officials
Citizens of Marion, a little
town IS .miles from. Salem on if
branch of the Turner road, will
ask Southern Pacific officials to
have the northbound Coast special
train stop there; regularly for the
convenience of people' "who wish
to do their shopping in Salem. ;
Action to this effect was taken
at a weir attended meeting of the
Marion community club - Friday
night.
Marion at present has no stage
service whatever and the only
trains stopping there are one go
ing north at 4:36 a. m., and an
other south at 7:00 p. m.
People wishing to shop in Sa
lem, and who do not possess au
tomobiles are finding this sched
ule most inconvenient as it re
quires ilnusually early rising and
the use of ah entire day's time.
Stages do not operate through
Marion because the roads are un
payed. The- coast special, known as the
"Fifteen oflar" train, because
of its low rate between Portland
and San Francisco, makes three
trips weekly, going south at 1:35
p. m., and north at 11:43 a. m.
Marion has only about 200 in
habitants, but it Is the center of
one of the moat progressive dis
tricts in the county. It is the
home, of jwme of the world's fin
est' blooded milk cows. Pickard

GRINNELL, la., Oct. 22. (AP)
Mictory in turn was the lot of
three flivvers which traveled much
faster than their owners woulii
ever admit to a' traffic cop to cov

route for Drake university's ,colf
legiate flivver derby at a speed of
better than a mile a minute.
"Grey Ghost," an antique of the
1917 variety, triumphed after it
was piloted to a thrilling and un
certain finish by Graham, a sopho
more from Elgin, 111. Another
car was only thirty seponds be
hind. Two speeding flivvers had
covered the road from.Des Moines
here in faster time to be succes
sively declared winners and then
disqualified.
Short lived glory was the lot of
R. .C. Herscbman, whose time of
48 minutes for the 56 miles led to
Investigation and disqualification
because his mount had a special
high compression motor. Next to
be proclaimed victor was Roscoa
"van Dyke, second ahead of Gra
ham, who was ruled o'ut later be
cause judges found his flivver was
of a 1924 model, and hence not
eligible.
Nineteen of the 22 starters
which were five years old to qual
ify, arrived at the finish here in
comparatively fast time and the
crews of the others were brought
to the 'Drake-Grinnell game here
in special escort cars. . No casual
