ON HUB MARRIED SO YEARS Golden Wedding of Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Hartley Cele brated Here US DISTRUST PAPER; WIT COINS MEXICO CITY (AIM Mexico continues to be a "hard money" country, despite the efforts of banks and government ' to induce the people to use paper currency. Most persons hurry to a bank or money changers as soon as they receive a bill of any denomina tion and convert it into gold or sil ver coins. Paper money in Mexico now is issued by the government's Ban co de Mexico, is always much more than covered ty a gold reserve and is literally as good as gold. Nevertheless, the disrepute into which any and all paper money fell during the years of revolutionary N.lisorder preceding the Obregon JyVd Calles regimes still lingers, -ljvwever unjustified in actual fact. During talsj period Mexico was flooded with different varieties of raper money issued by this or that chieftain or so-called government. The people had to use this money. Most if it turned out to be worth less. Since then few Mexicans feel that money is money unless it jingles. They will listen very po litely to explanations that the pretty hank-note is of the same J - 1 .. 1 oo rmA Thn. tha will ual politeness, refuse to acorjaJ vlie note or if circumstances force acceptance will rush away to swap rt for a metal coin they can bite and ring on the pavement.

BERLIN COMETS PE BERLIN (AP) Berlin is the first German city to take a leaf out f or America s dook ana construct a tunnel from a railway station to a nearby hotel. From the Anhalter station, where the trains from the south, chiefly from Munich, Nuremberg, and Dresden, arrive, a subterran ean passage has been built to the Excelsior hotel, -patronized chief ly by business men. The hotel had to assume the entire cost of con struction and experienced consid erable difficulty besides to obtain a building permit from the city. The work ol construction took eight months. The tunnel is 325 feet long, ten feet high and ten feet wide. The tunnel is the talk of the town. People are trying it out with the same youthful enthusiasm with which they tried out moving staircases in department stores when this American importation vras first put into commission some months ago.

Of ficial Japanese reports from Muk den say that Marshal Chang Tso lin, the ousted dictator of Peking, is1 alive and his condition is im proving, although a statement is sued by the attending physicians indicate that hie injuries ate more extensive than at first reported. The contusions on the head and leg are healing, but his bruised arm Is causing pain. Chang is cheerful, replying in variably to those who offer their sympathy with the stoic Chinese fatalism which may be translated "It doesn't matter." Mukden has been under martial law since the morning of June 4. Although the Shansi forces are still a day's march distant, the ?hange in the regime has been signalized by the appearance of Kuomintang Sun flags in scatter ed parts of Peking. Reports current in other Ori ental cities that the Americans are evacuating Peking are un founded. The legation at present has no such intention. T"he city gates, except one. are cloeed. excluding disorderly sol dier deserters. The automobile route to Tientsin is feasible, but risky, for the countryside is dot ted with nondescript soldiers without leaders. Mil If E!

Sippel of Baltimore, was elected president of the General Federation of Women's clubs here today, de feating Mrs. Edward Franklin White of Indianapolis by approxi mately 150 votes. Prolonged applause greeted a declaration by Dr. Valeria Parker of New York that the old form of Monogamic marriage is the form that is going to stand the test of time, during an address before the convention today. Dr. Parker said that she did not believe companionate mar riage would endure. "I am sure." she continued, "that biologically and ethically the old form of mon ogamic relationship is going to ctand. because it meets the needs of human beings." Representatives of the southern states were told that merchants of the south do not handle attractive and stylish cotton frocks for wom en, because makers do not pro dace them, by Mrs. Minnie Fisher Cunningham of Texas, who ex plained that she and other club women are eeeking the answer to the question "why do we have to wear silk where it is 'cotton weather from Mar to October." S. Low, street commissioner is calling attention to the Salem or dinance concerning rank vegeta tion on vacant premises. In case -owners fail to comply with the requirements, the city will have the work done, assessing the cost against them. The ordinance reads that it is "the duty of every property owaer, occupant of any property or per son having the care thereof in the city of Salem, Oregon, to cut close to the ground and remove or de stroy all weeds, thistles, grass or other rank vegetable growth grow ing upon the property owned by such person, occupied or in care of such person or growing upon the sidewalk space between the property line and the 'curb line."

Egypt (AP) Queen Hetepheres' carrying chair has been restored after two years' areful work and delivered to the fairo museum. The chair was made by her son. King Cheops, some 6,000 years ago. It is cased in patterned gold ind inlaid with solid gold hier oglyphics. Its great brauty is said to throw considerable light on the irtistic sense of Egyptian crafts men of the pyramid age. When discovered the wood of the chair was entirely decayed or shrunk to one-sixth of its original volume, but the jnints of tenons and mortises were in perfect pres ervation.
