SE V ENTY-EIGHTH YEAR SALEM, OREGON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, JULY 4, 1928 PRICE FIVE CENTS .-.' 1 1 FORESEE D OOM OF FIREWORKS; RIGHTS ABUSED Salem Becomes World's Noise Center, Hours Be fore Fourth Arrives POLICE CANT CONTROL Quiet Prevails While Officer in Sight, But Bedlam Breaks Out Again the Moment He .i Moves Elsewhere Prediction that1 fireworks will be banned altogether In Salem be fore another Independence day rolls around, was made last night when the annual bombardment broke out In all its fury several hours ahead of schedule, and a harassed police department found itself helpless to control the situ ation. A year ago, the noisy part of the Fourth of July celebration started three days ahead of time. This year, due to the proclama tion by Mayor T. A. Livesley that the shooting of fireworks would be permitted only on Independence day, there was little disturbance until Tuesday, but that afternoon It became so widespread that Salem gave promise of becoming the world's noise center. Not Enough Officers The police were unable to con trol the situation because there weren't enough of them. Two or three regiments of marines would have been necessary to round up all the busy nolsemakers in Salem last night. Wherever an officer happened to be in sight, there was a quiet spot; but as soon as he moved away, the bang of firecrackers ' and bombs began again. The prow ler cars were kept busy all eve ning responding to calls from one neighborhood after another, where annoyed householders complained that a reign of noisy terror was in progress. Some of the celebrants proved to be past masters in the art of disturbing the peace, aided by all the latest inventions for the pur pose. Some of them along State kfleet were so accurate in timing their firecracker shots that they could light one and hurl It across . the street so that it woild explode Just at the moment thax it struck an oncoming automobile; some ,'CoDtmntd on pat S.)

' OREGON'S PRISON RECORDS BROKEN STATE PENITENTIARY NOW HOLDS 713, REPORT Coanty Jails Also Crowded Be yond Capacity; No Relief In Sight There are more criminal pri soners in Oregon at the present time than ever before in the his tory of the state, a surrey of the situation showed late yesterday. At the state penitentiary here there were 713 convicts taken care of last night, which is the largest number ever confined in that In stitution at one time. The grand total reached that figure with the arrival of eight convicts yester day, only two being released. j "Reports from , all over the state indicate that county Jails are crowded to capacity," Super intendent Henry Meyers stated last night. "For instance there are 40 in jail at Pendleton." There are 29 persons, Includ ing two women, confined in the Marion county jail here in Salem Monday night. It was stated yes terday by Sheriff Oscar Bower. Although this is not a record it is about twice the normal popula tion of the jail and crowds quar ters to capacity. Of the prisoners committed to the state prison yesterday four came from Multnomah county, two from Lane and two from Umatilla. "We should have not over 650 prisoners in the penitentiary here at any one time," Meyers stated last night, indicating that more than that number cannot be cared for efficiently. At the present time there are six dormitories in use, 40 men being housed in each dormitory, he stated. The overcrowded condition of the penitentiary Is believed to be at least partly the reason for two escapes that took place from there within recent weeks. Both convicts who got away did so by merely walking to freedom,, the limited number of, guards making It necessary for them to be allow ed to work In the fields as trus ties. No relief seems to be in sight, according to reports reaching the penitentiary. The number of men being committed Is steadily greater than the number being discharged. The Marlon county jail was yes terday lightened to the extent of one prisoner. Dan Edwards of Sllverton, having finished his six months' sentence for possession of liquor, was set at liberty. U. S.

July 3. (AP) A new attempt to span the south Atlan tic in a single flight from main land started today when the Ital ian aviators. Captain Arturo Fer rari n and Major Carlo P.

The distance from Mon teeclio field to Pernambuco is ap proximately 7.500 kilometers, or about 4.C35 miles. Head Out Over Sea The aviators calculated that their plane should be slightly be yond Gibraltar by dawn Wednesn day and would reach the vicinity of the Cape Verde islands by twi light of the same day. Thus the central portion of the Atlantic crossing should be accomplished at night. They expect to reach their destination soon after dawn Thursday.

RECKLESSNESS CHARGED Fast Driving Prevails On Eve of Fourth Despite Rain Imminence of the Fourth of Ju ly seemed to encourage a spirit of recklessness even aside from the use of fireworks. There were two arrests for speeding and one for reckless driving Tuesday evening, in spite of the fact that drizzling rain and wet pavement made fast driving double perilous. K. W. Hutch ins. 2180 Hazel avenue, was charged with driv ing 35 miles an hour on Front street. George B. Harris of Brooks was the other driver book ed on a speeding charge. Walter Hovereon of route 7 was charged with reckless driving. IK,..

FRUIT RECEIVED EVEN ON FOURTH HUNT CANNERY OPEN TODAY UP TO 5 O'CLOCK Cherry Season Ending; Logans Will Last Until Evergreens Start There will be something of a holiday in berry and cherry can ning and packing today. But not a complete cessation of activities. This Hunt cannery will receive fruit today, up to 5 o'clock. None will be received after that hour. The Oregon Packing company received fruit up to midnight last night, but will receive none to day. At none of the other Salem can neries, so far as the reporter could learn last evening, will any fruit be received today. But they will all be open for business as us ual tomorrow. Manager Gibson of the Produc ers Cooperative cannery said last evening that they have been very busy, but no fruit will be received today. They are nearly done with their Royal Ann pack. Mr. Gibson said their growers have had very little loss from cracking with their Royal Anns. They expect lo ganberries to hold out the balance of July, or into early August, when evergreen blackberries will begin to come. If not before the loganberry season is over, the ev ergreen season will begin very soon thereafter. The Hunt cannery has been put ting some Royal Ann cherries into barrels, for shipment to the mara schino trade, besides canning vast quantities of them. Their receipts of loganberries, cherries of all va rieties, and red and black raspber ries are running very high. They are packing some Montmorency and other sour (pie) varieties of cherries.
