PAGE TWO BILL FOR REUEFPRSSED Debenture Clause Retained Despite Objection of President Hoover (Continued from Page I.) committee, obtained consent to have a conference committee ap polnted for the purpose of meeting with a similar committee from the house, should one be authorized, to agree on disputed sections. The cenate conference committee Is composed of Chairman McNary, Senators Capper and Ranedell cf Louisiana, who are opposed to the debenture plan, and Norris of Ne braska and Smith of South Caro lina who favor it. Just prior to the final vote. Democratic spokesmen warned Republican leaders that refusal of the house to receive the senate bill because of the debenture sec tion would mean defeat of all agricul tural legislation. The Democrats, Kobinson of Arkansas, the party leader, and Harrison of Mississip pi, declared that if o farm meas ure la finally approved, the re sponsibility would rest upon the Republican leadership.' Senate Bill Similar 'to House Measure In the main, the senate farm bill does n6t differ greatly from the measure passed some time ago by the house which has the en dorsement of Mr. Hoover. Except for the debenture plan, both bills seek to aid the farm situation by setting up a comprehensive struc ture for tho orderly marketing of crops so as to prevent the surplus from disturbing pries levels. The senate measure would cre ate a farm board of twelve num bers the house bill provides for one of six whirl: would be vested with broad pjwer to fctudy. di rect and control the multtitude of factors which go into the produc tion, storing and disposition of farm commodities. Commodity advisory councils would be authorized to assist the board in dissemifiating informa tion and to advise the board of the needs of the various cropsr Sta bilization agencies would be cre ated upon request -ot cooperative associations to buy up. store, pro cess and sell surpluse with the in tention of maintaining a compara tively even price level. The debenture plan would be Invoked only when the board deemed it necesary to bring it in to use as a result of failure to cope with the farm problem in any commodity by means of the structure devised In the bill. Un der this plan, an exporter of sur plus crops would receive a deben ture certificate whose value would be equal to one-half the tariff on imports of those commoditties. The certificates would be redeam able at par for the payment of Im port duties. The farm board would be given a revolving fund of $500,000,000 to carry on its operations. This money would be loaned to cooperatives and stabilization corporations for the construction of facilities, the formation of stronger organization and the marketing of crops.

Under the league arrangement? this year, the first 25 of the gate receipts are paid to the home club for its ground expenses. The remainder is split 60-40 the big end going to the winning team. A game such as staged here Sun day drew a gate of $260 but only 190 was netted by the Salem club which had an expense for the day ot about $197 exclusive of ground rectal. Ordinarily, Edwards polnt ' ed out, the receipts would hare made a profit 'for the Senators. Backera of the club -point out the advertising value to. a city of good ball team.

At the close of th? season this for feit v.tii' h is in reality a deposit, is returned to the club. Business men underwriting the Senators need not fear any ma terial deficit, said Edwards. Many of the club3 such as Longview and Kelso, draw big crowds at home and it i3 virtually certain that .the Salem club will make money on several of its heme games includ ing one on Memorial day. How ever, the Senators do not feel like continuing without additional se curity, Edwards stated. era by boh (Continued From Page 1.) al than usual, it was reported that the higher price included use of ehairs, not heretofore covered. Matter ot securing a suitable place was left in the hands ot Super intendent George Hug. Suggestion was made that morning exercises might be held in a local theatre. The superintendent reported re.' garding transportation for Polk pupils next year that two proposi tions had been received, neither of which was feasible and" that to date the best suggestion was to let parents there combine to haul the youngsters to school, the board to allow the amount Polk county gives for the purpose, about $50 per pupil per year. The matter may ride until the local district ascertains what other sections of the state are doing along this line. Susie J.

Phon S. - 3 Tomorrow n ke tuckers are I HI A -qp ri MU.fv.TK -mi Sergeant Beaven saw service overseas and found some years afterward that his health was im paired and there was little hope for his life. Then it was that Princess Nokomia, a daughter of Little Chief Whit Eagle, came into his life, brirVag a story of regained health through ontdoor walking. Married, the two started on a pilgrimage about the United States in which they have con tacted notables from President Coolidge to John D. Rockefeller. "I've been raised by the pub lic," said the princess in discussing her life to date. "When I was seven my father died, having pre viously -been cast out from his tribe because he had married a paleface woman. My mother had died when I was four. For years I lived the life of an Indian girl, roaming the plains, going about the world, picking up my educa tion from the people with whom I came in contact." But the princess Is ambitious. Just now radio speaking; bead making along with her husband's government compensation, make up the famil; exchequer but some day the coffers are to be filled with money from writing. "When we get through our trip around the world we are going to settle down and to go -into busi ness," says Beaven. "Then the story of our travel will be told." And in the meanwhile, improved health, the happiness of days spent on the long trail for rides in cars are refused often in order to give the couple sufficient exer cise and a wide variety of experi ences are coming to the sergeant and his princess.

The brief said McLean "was not 'squelched' by President Hoover by reason of any misconduct or any action on the part of the plaintiff and was not by any ac tion of said President Hoover put in his place'." The Record was charged in the brief with "wickedly contriving and falsely and maliciously In tending to bring McLean Into pub.

May 15. 1929 r Many Shows Combined Into One, Is Opinion of Critic Here By OUVE DOAK Edna Ferber In her stories has the happy faculty ot making her people develop Into friends of the reader, friends that are characters which live in every day life and In many of the people with whom the reader comes in dally contact. "Show Boat" Is full of realistic characters. Hawks blowing his whistle to furnish the bird notes for the love scenes in the Stoow Boat plays, Mrs. Hawks, hard, un bending, vindictive and dictatorial lives on In one's mind as a real person, making a turmoil wherev er she appears, Julie, the pretty actress driven out by Mrs. Hawks to become a "woman of the town," all these and more according to individual taste one takes away as real acquaintances from seeing "Show Boat." The play as it appears on the screen and through vitaphone is dot one play but many. There are so many lines ot thought, so many situations to watch through that one feels as though one had seen many shows all in one night, and having seen many one would expect to find some not only fair and others excellent. So with "Show Boat." There are parts of it too nearly maudlin, but there are far more that are excellent. The photography is excellent and the beauty of the whole play is worth watching, if no story were told. Then to that there i3 good music when the shiny faced black man, lying stretched out in his chair in the moonlight on the deck of "Show Boat" sang "Lone some Road" even the preview crowd set up a vociferous blowing of noses, there are good lines and there is excellent acting part of the time it is so real one feels as an intruder. The clothes, house furnishings, music, manners, transportation are old fashioned enough that they in themselves make a separ ate theme of interest aside from the main theme of the play. "Show Boat," is both spectacu lar and genuine. Most certainly it is worth one's while to see. Hubbard People At Salem Church Service Sunday HUBBARD, May 14. Mr. and Mrs. E. E.

Much ot the story Mr. Noble, who is owner of the Skyline orchards near Salem, feold has not reached the press in this country. Mexico is really an Indian coun try with little white blood In its population, Mr. Noble asserted. The Indian readily and almost naturally endures great hardships and privation, he said, yet is per fectly comfortable following the life 'of his ancestors and is almost totally without ambition. The mestizo or mixed breed con stitutes the bulk of the govern ment employes, and officers of the Mexican army and it is in a large measure due to the admin istrative and executive inefficien cy of these groups that Mexicans Own less than one-fifth of the country fn w,hlch they live. Systems of taxation, or more correctly speaking lack of sys tems, were described, as well as a peek given of the political meth ods. An interesting account ot the army, probably the most prim itive in the world was included. Mrs. Noble and Mrs. Nora White were also quests at the luncheon. BELLAMY TRIAL TO Who killed MimI Bellamy? The answer will be provided when "The Bellamy Trial" comes today to the Elsinore theatre as a feature mystery drama produc tion. With Leatrice Joy in tho lead ing role as the beautiful murder defendant, the murder drama is played by a cast that represents one ot the greatest assemblages of screen talen ever to appear in one production. Introduced to the screen in a mostovel manner by Monta Bell wno wrote ana airectea tne screen play from the sensational maga zine serial by Frances Noyes Hart, . . .on ...in a NOBLE ABOUT I n t n MIDtndyet THEY the mystery drama maintains a thrilling tempo of suspense that is dispelled only in the final footage that reveals the real murderer. As the woman on trial Miss Joy brings to the screen an impres sively sincere character delinea tion that reaps for her new honors as a freelance star. George Bar raud plays opposite her as the loyal husband who stands by his wife in the face of terrible accusations. BMIE PHY WILL BE DLSEN FILE Irresistably charming, with tha charm that only Barrie can weave Into the fabric of a play. "What Every Woman Knows." comes to the Elsinore Monday evening. May 27 as the season's final offering by the first circuit repertory com pany of the Moroni Olsen players. The play comes under the auspices of the Salem Lions and Kiwanis clubs. Maggie Shand. nee Wylie. is the heroine of the play just the sort of heroine that Barrie loves to create; with a quaintly pathetic combination of romanticism and shrewd Scotch practicality in her make-up and with unmeasured depths of devotion in her nature for the man whom she chooses to honor with her loe.
