The triweekly service from San Francisco, Portland and Seat tle has been in operation some time, and on Saturday this J service will be increased to a daily schedule. On the same 1 date schedules between Portland and Seattle, now giving two daihr round trios, will be increased to focr. Demands for reservations on several coast lines, including those to Los An geles, are beyond the constantly increasing equipment. v Salem will not get into line with this development any too soon, with its already authorized airport. Immigration From Mexico CONGRESSMAN JOHNSON V suggests that immigration from any country south of the 32d parallel of latitude, which corresponds with the Mexican border, shall not in any year exceed emigration of citizens oi the United States to that particular country in the preceding ' year '...,.. Which would cut off nearly all the people coming not only from Mexico but also from every Central and South American country. There are protests from California. The Stockton Rec ord says that in the case of Mexicans a recent check made in that state indicates no flood from below the Bio Grande; the official figures showing a decline in immigration from that country, notwithstanding much' talk about the inefficiency of the border patrol And the Stockton papef says that among many Califor nia farmers and growers this to the state; though the other, side of the question is not without its advocates. A " $ ... I Why Women Are for Hoover MRS. THOMAS G. WINTER, former president of the Gen eral Federation of Women's clubs, is a staunch advocate of Herbert Hoover for president. In a recently issued pamph let, Mrs. Winter gives as the Want Herbert, Hoover" the fact that he has been a standard bearer of the American flag all. over the world: because he does not talk politics, he lives statesmanship; because he is the very type of an American because of Tjtfhat he is doing for homes and children; because he knows the actual tasks ol government; because of his labor; and because he is the the world has ever seen. Major Charles Bolton Hamble deserved the first full mil itary funeral ever held in Salem, which honored him vester i day. His untimely death came on account of lack of reserve strength, due to hardships suffered in five enirasremenU in : the World war overseas, in the Meuse, Argonne and St. Mi- hiel drives.

WASHINGTON. i-Whlle the rsnopers of Uncle Sam's cavalry have bad their noses put more or lens out of joint by that new corps d'eltte of tho military world, avia tion, there Is one field of notable sporting and social promin ence where the boss . soldiers rule supreme. Nobody has yet invented air polo. The only contenders against t h cavalrymen are the officers of gun regiments that still boast horse batteries instead of puffing, stinking trac tors. Army poloers are mighty busy iround Washington Just now. They are hoping for a third go at their twice defeated rivals of the British army next year. Every af ternoon sees them surging about the huge green polo lot down be side the placid Potomac fighting it out in hopes of getting a crack at the Britishers, if they should challenge. , And they have solved the ques tion of referee to their own com plete satisfaction. The job has been intrusted to a general offi cer. Brigadier General E. E. Booth, chief of the G-4 section. General Staffv That assignment fixes It so there will be no sand- lot disputes about always doubt ful polo foul " calling. Who of smaller military fry would dare cuss out a general and an assis tant chief of staff at that? Even Brigadier General Frank Parker, GS head and also an as sistant chief of staff, and who rides wKh the polo gallopers, ac cepts fouls assessed against him by Booth with the army "Tes, General" equivalent of the Navy's Aye ays sir. although sometimes Qi3 Old Oregon's Yesterdays Town Talk Prom the Statesman Our Fathers Read 12, 10OS Superintendent G.

Unlucky on Wheels But civilians show no such re speet for the general. Recently, riding- from Virginia back to Washington in his own new and shiny car. he stopped at a nctdog stand for refreshments and park ed well out of the road to the rirht. His nrecantions were use less. Another motorist whooped around the corner in a round house curve and chewed off all the left side fenders and a wheel on the general's oar. That was bad, but a week or sor later when the restored and revarnished ma chine rolled up to the war depart ment, Booth embarked at once for the polo battle ground. When ne got there he drove the machine well ud on the grass to avoid fur ther possible damage and went to referselng. It was "useless. In ten minutes a loud "blam" from the region or the ID-fated Booth car announced new disaster. The general gallop ed over to find a strange automo bile deeply imbedded in his car's rear construction and a perspir ing, apologetie driver who told of a polo-excited wife nuagmg n elbow Just at the wrong moment. Saddle a Veteran The high ranking polo foul crar is quite a sight when he mounts for action. In these non forma tion forays, he insists on using a much prised Saumur bridle with the embossed seal of that great French cavalry school shining like a breast plate on his horse's chest. He has used it, and the same horse, since his days as commandant t the Fort Riley cavalry shcools and ribald com. ments by his cavalry colleague that it looks more like mooring tackle for a battleship than horse furniture move him not.

Hard luck appears to pursue Hassell and Cramer. This time a motorboat sank beneath them but they escaped drowning. Ton can't blame those demo crats from refusing to enter the election in Oregon. Nobody wants to ride to sure defeat. Oregon Is too modest, accord Ing to Dr. W. L. Whittlesey of Princeton university. It is dis couraging to toot one's horn against such a siren blast as emanates from onr sister state to the south. Evidently Salem citizens think modern teaching methods are ell right provided the children learn something. Probably a lot of Oregon deer were disappointed at being denied their annual fall company Oregory, of the Oregonian, sug gests setting the deer season date further along in the fall, to In sure its arrival after - the rains. That sounds like good sense. What's, the matter with Os West, national democratic com mitteeman for Oregon? He isn't turning loose anything red-hot for AJ Smith.

Registration of voters in Ore gon to date, with less than a month in which to register for the general election, totals 316,113 members of all parties as compar ed to 359,236 registered prior to the general election two years ago, according to a statement is sued Tuesday by Secretary of State Koser. Of the total registration 221.- 465 are republicans, 82,963 are democrats, 552 progressives, 842 prohibitionists, 1275 socialists and 9017 are classified as miscellan eous. While the figures may not agree with those of county clerks in the various counties. Kozer points out that the state figures probably are more nearly correct as they represent the bona fide registration after the dead wood has been eliminated through the cooperation of postmasters in the various towns. "In some of the cities and towns as many as 25 per cent of the voters pamphlets are undelivered by reason of the removal of the voter from the county," Koser points out.

NEW YORK Twenty million, theater tickets are sold every year to plays and musical shows in New York, bringing through box office windows, as nearly as anybody can estimate, more than $50,000,000. Eighty theatres, with seats for more than &0.000 persons, are de voted to the drama; nor does this take account of any of the scores of motion picture and vaudeville houses. Some seven thousand players, from stars to chorines, earn their living In New York theatres, com prising the casts of the 300 or more productions generally un veiled here in the course of a year. Yet the theatre business is so uncertain that compared to it, speculation in stocks or drilling for oil seems almost a sure thing. A Game Of Ctuuiee The figures tor the theatrlcalj year or 1927-2S Illumine the Broadway axiom that the show business is no place for anybody who Is unwilling to take a chance. The season brought to New York stages 235 dramatic productions and 69 musical shows. Of the dramatic productions, Billboard, theatrical trade magazine, reckons that ' four-fifths were failures. leaving deficits or terminating Ithout considerable profit. Of the music shows almost half failed, and musical failures are more costly than dramatic failures because of the greater expense of production. Veteran producers figure that season after season will show fail ure for four out of fire dramatic presentations, and In some years for as many as nine out of ten.

In a certain home ths parents differed radically in their atti tudes toward schooling. The 'mother had sent the children to a modern school. The father thought new fangled educational ideas were all nonsense. He fre quently voiced his disapproval of his wife's choice over the break fast table. In the presence of the youngsters.- Being accustomed to respect the opinions of both par ents, tney were bewildered. Their enthusiasm for school was damp ened. When lessens were not dons It was a fine excuse to sar that school was no good anyway. Their interest in their studied and their wholehearted participation in school life suffered as a result of the conflict at home. One mother exacted strict obedi ence of her little daughter. Her father on the other hand always pleaded for lenience. Occasional ly the mother gave way to this pressure. The child could never be sure that disapproval and pun ishment would always follow her transgressions. She knew that it depended on whether it was father r moiner wno was in ths assertive mood. mors 1 IS-.

To put this burder of -decision on ths young child is most unfair. For during his early years hs needs nothing so mnch as the assurance that his parents know what is right.
