It is only eleven years ago. It is a day to remember. Saturday next, May 12, is carnation day. We are asked by te American War Mothers to take this opportunity to prove that we have not forgotten To prove that we have in mind the disabled service men and their families, for whom the war is not yet over. The American War Mothers, whose sons and daughters served their country and their flag in the World war, sell artificial carnations on the day before Mother's day in order to secure funds to help the .disabled service men and their families. It is a work of love; of mother love The distribution of the funds secured going to every help ful cause for the service men, and to various patriotic organ izations A work endorsed by the president, governors, mayors and other high officials. By our own Salem mayor. Buy'a carnation on Saturday . And as many more as you can afford. Or pay as high a price for it as your purse wiH justify.

I0HDUIES RECEIVE SOME AID Associated Charities Organ .zed Seven Years Ago; Plea Made for Help There are very hopeful signs concerning the work under new alignments being taken up at the plant of the Oregon Linen Mills, Inc. The signs are that the institution will short ly become a going concern, much to the credit of Salem, and contributing largely to the upbuilding and the prosperity of this city. This is cheerful news. Says the current bulletin of the Oregon State Motor asso-j ciation i "The man with a thousand dollars never hesitates these days about what kind of a car to buy he buys the two thousand dollar kind." MANY FINE GENTLEMAN (Roseburg News-Review) Here is a candidate for justice qf the Oregon supreme court' that ought to receive every republican vote in Doug las county. He is no other person than Circuit Judge L. H. McMahan, of Marion county. He is a prince of a fellow. In his announcement to the voters of Oregon for their support the judge speaks in the following language, which ought to meet the approval of every fair-minded citizen: "I have found by experience . as circuit judge that I am hedged in and completely surrounded by a system of proce dure, not established by any act of the legislature but arbi trarily created by the supreme court. I find too often it is not a question of what is just, but whether the lawyer pre senting the case conformed in every particular to the rules vHCvery time I have kicked some rules out of my court in or der to render substantial justice between litigants and the case has been appealed, I have been reversed by the supreme court. So sacred in the eyes of the supreme courts have the rules been held that they have allowed men to.be hung rath- - 1.1 4.

There must be rules of procedure in all courts, but to deprive one man unjustly of his property or to deprive another of avf air trial when his lif iris at stake simply because a lawyer through oversight or ignorance did not conform to all of the numerous rules of procedure is a crime against the spirit of the law. My election to the su preme bench would not, of course, change the rules, but it might make the idols a little less secure." i - , i Reed, Ritchie Subjected To Campaign Funds Quiz WAR CLOUDS GROW DARKER IN CHINA (Ooatiaaed rrom'pefe 1) Shantung peninsula. The Japanese ministry has already approved the movement of these troops. The establishment of a neutral tone embracing an area of seven miles on either side of the Tainan Tsingtao railway was arranged by the Japanese general in command ind the Chinese troops were or dered to withdraw outside this zone. The issuance or a proclama tion to this effect brought retalia tory measures by the nationalists ho fired on a Japanese regiment n a northern suburb of Tsinan. A general engagement ensued, the Japanese blowing up an ammu nition dump, setting fire to the barracks and carrying on a fierce offensive. The nationalists attack ed in large numbers along the whole line of the railway. Peking advices say that the bat tle was raging at 11 o'clock this morning, but details as to casual ties were lacking. From Shanghai came what was considered a reliable report that the overwhelming nationalist troops had surrounded the Japan ese, numbering 3.000 or less, in the Shantung capital. Further word from Tokyo was ndicative of the significance at- ached to the serious situation in China, for Premier Tanaka invited the diplomatic missions of Great Britain. United States, France and iiaiy to the foreign office and made explanations of the dispatch Japanese troops to China and conditions which necessitated this. PARENTS DETERMINE WASHINGTON. May 8.

SALEM I MYITES LEGION CONVENTION HERE, 1929 (Coatiaa4 fi CHILD PERSONALITY Responsibility of parents for the personalities of their children, was tne keynote of an address by C uaxter feyton. vice president of the Grolier society, friend of eifht presidents or tne United States and world trareler. before the Parent Teacher association at the McKln ley school last night. Not only will early impressions decide the future success or fail ure of the Individual, but will, if they are properly controlled. actually increase the span of life until in time education along inese lines will double and even treble the present arerage life time, the speaker said. "Moses was 120. years old when he died. His eyes were not dim nor were his material forces abat ed. The years of Isaac were ISO. Joshua died at 110. Rehoboam was 140 when he began to relrn. and reigned for 17 years. - Job lived to 140 years - of are and there are records of many others who attained eren much greater age." Mr. reyton said. saw . . in inose aays tne rood was more simple. They had no daily sensational press to tell them of all the murders. and suicides that happened in all parts of the world and to fill their minds at the be ginning of each day with revolting. acpressmg news. Mr. Peyton's present star in Sa lem is in connection with the Gro lier society's activities, one of which Is publication of the "Book of Knowledge." Jason Lee Brotherhood Hears About Candidates It is not generally known that the Salem Associated, Charities has taken care of more than one thousand families since its organ ization seven years ago. During the year just past it has supplied 1Z5 worthy families in this community with food, fuel and clothing, besides furnishing medicines and medical attention in many cases of illness. And yet, a large number of really urgent cases had to be passed by because of Insufficient funds. Twenty-five loads of wood were delivered to practically des titute families last winter. Ac tually there was need for more than twice that amount. Owing to a backward season, the unemployment problem right now is still a grave one. It is true that we have had a number of fine summer days. But that means little to those who are ill or in want, or both. And there are still many such; altogether too many to be viewed with equanimity by the more favored and affluent among our citizenry. An example of the urgent need for help that still exists may be found in the case of one family (not the only one by any means) where there are eight children without shoes and stockings or other clothing fit to go out In. Their food for some time has con sisted merely of bread, and not much of that. The father has been ill and undernourished all winter. At the present moment he is not well or strong enough to go to work, eren if It were available. Another case, and a rery dis tressing one, discovered by the as sociation, is that of a young moth er lvlng ill in bed. with not a sin gle thing to eat in the house. She had just about reached the point where she did not care whether she ever ate again, or continued to live. This case was taken care of by the visiting welfare worker, personally, because the assocla tion'a-funds were exhausted. It must be apparent, therefore, that the effort now being made by the Associated Charities to collect sufficient funds to mitigate the crying need that still exists, should meet with quick and gen erous responses. Salem has never been slow In answering the call for help in a worthy cause. It is hoped that the present call will not fall on deaf ears. Chairman of U. S. Chamber Of Commerce at Capita WASHINGTON, May -8. (AP) Repudiation by the business pro- f Melon ox au niuio mau aiuioosii individuals and those who sup press the truth about transactions about which tne public is entitled to know was demanded here today by Edwin B. Parker, chairman of the board of the chamber of com merce of the United States. Sounding the keynote at the opening of the ICth annual meet ing of the cnamoer, Mr. Parker called for a clean and sportsman like conduct of all business and the throwing out of the profession of "those pirates whose acts stigma tize and bring business generally into disrepute." His severe indictment of those who ruthlessly exploit the public for their own private gain was the nigh ngnt or an aadress, "team work for prosperity," in which the speaker reiterated the chamber's opposition to government entry Into the realm of business where private enterprise can better serve the public, branded as "business outlaws." Those who fall to ob serve the canons of decency ami fair play, called for cooperation 1n the interest of agricultural prosperity, and warned against the flaunting of, American prosperity before the rest of the world in place of dedicating such prosperity to service. The day is at hand, he said, when business must consider the disturbing evidences of a "public be damned" policy on the part of some of their members, who. through their selfish operations inevitably bring upon themselves and the entire institution of busi ness the thunderbolts of public wrath in terms of legislative and government regulation that ham per the legitimate freedom on in itiative." Turning to unemployment, he said it was up to business to find Work for those thrniiDh mechanical improvements and sea sonal industries. tr i . nusmess. ne added, cannot stop to contemplate with satisfac tion the products of its invention but must press forward to provide employment for the victims of its invention.

Blowers was a caller at The Statesman office yesterday. He is a candidate for delegate to the national republi can convention. He is for Hoover, and for the strict and Impartial enforcement of the 18th amend ment, and says so in plain type on his campaign cards. Mr. Blowers was elected county judge of Hood River county for a second term with only two opposing votes, and to the legislature unopposed. That's a unique record. a V In the death of Mrs. Martha p.

I That the average business man knows little about the Inner part or business end of the circus and that many hare the wrong impres sion of the circus and its members as a whole, especially their char acters, was brought out in a short but Interesting talk by Al. H. Priddy, adrance man of the Al. G. Barnes circus who cpoke before the Klwanls club at Its luncheon yesterday noon for the Interests of the circus which will be In this city In the nesr future. "The circus of today Is much Improved as everything else," he said. "It is thought out and Is wonderfully organized In Its work as well as in the business end, and this organization should be of vital Importance to the average business man," he continued. "In the study of the human ele ment, the lowest, the animal, we will find that in many cases they are far superior in intelligence than man. For example the ele phant uses all of his brain while the man uses but one tenth, and has a wonderful pcyrer of concen tration," he said. "Each of us should marvel at their performance." Mr. Priddy also stressed the fact that the group of people in the circus, especially the girls were too often misjudged by the arerage person. He believed that when it came to conduct or char acter, the circus girl would rate as high as girls in other occupa tions. They are on the go at all times, their code being "the show goes on," and after the many changes of costume, rehearsals. and moving from place to place, they have little time to be doing anything else, except occasionally to rest, he said. several mends of Mrs. Adaline Calbreath, mother of Mrs. Hoag, gathered in honor of her seven tieth birthday anniversary.

May j; when ALBANY, N. Y., May 8 (AP) The defense in the trial of Mrs. Florence E. S. Knapr. former sec retary of state of New York, rest ed Monday at the conclusion of nearly four hours of testimony by her. When she had finished her counsel announced that its rebu tatlon of the charge of grand lar ceny of a state census pay check was ended. Supreme Court Jus tice Stephen Callaghan then said that summing up both sides would be made tomorrow and indications were that the judge would charge the Jury before the close of the day's session. During the day Mrs. Knapp de nied from the stand the truth of testimony of her stepdaughter. Clara Blanche Knapp, instructor of home economics at Middlebury college, Vermont, -to whose order the check on which the indictment is based was made. "The step daughter had testified that 6he did not know -of the existence of the check at the time of its issue, had done no work on the census, had not authorized Mrs. Knapp to en dorse the check for hfr and had not received its proceeds. The proceeds of the $2,875.06 check on "which Mrs. Knapp ad mitted endorsing her stepdaugh ter's name, went she said to pay for her stepdaughter's share in furniture which they had agreed to purchase. The former secretary testified also today that her various rela tives who she placed on the cen sus payroll in 1925 and 1926 ac tually had done work on the cen sus wmcn sne characterized as a -gigantic tasx, rar beyond any thing she had contemplated when she first took office. wnen sne casnea the pay checks of her relatives or 'bought ba&k drafts with them, they re ceived without exception either the money or direct benefit from the proceeds, she said, adding thai she had been authorised to en dorse these pay checks. Mrs. Knapp frequently said she was unable to recall specific work done by her relatives at times during which their names appear ed on the census payrolls. WASHINGTON May 8 Eight men classified by them selves or others as presidential candidates paraded across the wit ness stand of a senate investigat ing comittee Monday to tell what they know about financial contri butions to their campaigns. They were the first contingent f a group of 15 such candidates summoned by the committee; the others will be examined later In the week. The novelty of the procession, the assembling within two hours 3f a group of political headliners with more or less aspiration for the country's highest office, out weighed in public interest the tes timony adduced from them. There were no sensations. By thus quizzing at close range those in whose behalf definite moves have been made to line up convention delegates the campaign funds committee entered new fields of precedent. It wil enlarge the field later in the week when it goes to Annapolis to hear Gover nor Ritchie of Maryland, one of the democratic candidates, and to New York City to take the testi mony, of Governor Smith, now leading the democratic lists in the number of delegates aligned. Those appearing today include even members of congress and ne former member; Senator Cur ls of Kansas; Borah of Idaho; Vorrls of Nebraska and Goff of West Virginia, republicans, and Walsh of oMntana and George of Georgia; Representative Hull of Tennessee and former Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock of Nebraska, ill democrats. The investigators have not yet determined when they will call in Herbert Hoover who leads the field of republican : candidates: Frank O. Lowden, republican run- nerup. Senator Watson of Indiana, who is fighting it out in his own! state with the commerce secretary,! former Senator Atlee Pomerene-of Ohio, and Representative William A. Ayres of Kansas, the latter two lemocrats. From the four republicans and four democrats examined at the pening session, the committee found expenditures of slightly more than $15,000 in their cam paigns to date. Borah said he had ipent nothing; Norris listed his outlay at $6 an unwilling person al contribution Goff placed his ! at less than $100, which George said would more than cover the amount he had put out; Hull told (AP) I jf sending si nnn ...., . nis state; Walsh, who has drop ped out or the democratic race, listed receipts at $1,075 and ex penditures at $1,190.65 none of which he gave personally; Hitch--cock said the total disbursement on his behalf had been $1,744.85 while Crutis who has had a cam paign organization workine in a number of States, testified that the total expenditure in his campav&n has been $11,468.67 with volun tary receipts of $11,685. Although ranking all of the oth er presidential candidates from the senate in point of service, Curtis stood aside sa that Norris, outstanding- leader of the senate re publican independents might give his testimony and hurry to Ifcts meeting of another committee of which he Is a member. ' Smoking his briar pipe, the Ne braskan told the committee under oath that he had been made a can didate against his "better judg ment" and that his totsl expend!- tures in obtaining the bulk of both the Nebraska and Wisconsin dele gations had been $6. He explained that he had paid this sum after the Nebraska primarr to the nu It- Usher of a country newspaper who naa inserted an advertisement boosting Norris without the sen ator's knowledge.
