PRDPAEAIIT HAVE NO EFFECT Interstate Commerce Group Angered by Hundreds of Resolutions West Salem News PORTLAND. Ore- June 11 (AP) The Oregonlan In a spe cial dispatch from its Washington. D. C. bureau will say tomorrow: Hundreds of resolutions from civic and municipal organizations in Oregon and California for and against the proposed construction of the Great Northern and -Western Pacific into California have so angered the Interstate commerce commission, to which the expres sions were addressed, that it noti fied the presidents -of thosesroads and the Southern Pacific that such "oronaeanda work" was a waste of time." 296 Groups on Record It is understood that Z9S or ganizations have gone on record regarding the rail construction Drum-am. With 107 backing the Great Northern and Western Pa ciflc, 135 opposing the plan, and 54 taking a neutral position. The warning that "propaganda from interested communities would have no weight with the commission was sent to Ralph Budd. president of the Great Northern; H. M. Adams of the Western Pacific and Paul Shoup of the Southern Pacific by Bal athasar Meyer, chairman of the sub-committee In charge of the question of permits for the new lines. It reads in part as follows: "In connection with the appli cation of the Great Northern and the Western Pacific for authority to build a line from Klamath Falls to Paxton, many resolutions and communications of various sorts are being received by us. It ap pears obvious that a great deal of propaganda work is being done both for and against this project. Spontaneity is Lacking "It is assumed that you gentle men know that cases are deter mined by us in the record and not by consideration of resolutions, communications, newspaper arti cles, and the like. Of course, we recognize that some of this mater ial may be spontaneous. But ex perience indicates that a very considerable portion of it is the result of solicitation by opposing interests."

" "No,' answered Ann demurely. "Well, don't you remember some one saying 'Why don't you toast the man who's buying your clothes?' " "No sir, I do not," Ann replied emphatically.

(AP) Ambassador Charles G. Dawes, in augurating weekly press confer ences at the American embassy, latKea to American newspaper men today about developments this week in negotiations for na val disarmament, but declined to disclose anything of the intentions of the American or British gov ernments as to the next movment toward soluton of this paramount International question. Ambassador Dawes said his dis cussions with Ambassador Hugh Gibson had been of the greatest value to him in reaching an un derstanding of the naval problem. He and Mr. Gibson discussed the matter "from the Washington standpoint and in the light of Mr. Gibson's experiences at Geneva." Nothing Definite Yet The meeting of the two Ameri can ambassadors with Premier Ramsay McDonald on Tuesday, dealt only with methods of ap proach to the problem and reach ed no definite form. Ambassador Dawes declined all invitations to discuss in a pre pared statement purposes of tho British and American' govern ments by declaring that he was merely an agent in forwarding The longest route to be served by busses for which the Salem school board is now making ne gotiations la in Polk county and runs 28 miles, K. W. Tavenner. acting superintendent, found In a survey he Is making for the board. He mapped out routes Thursday, and believes no less than nine different routes win handle the transportation prob lem. Other distances are from 1 to 22 miles, round trip, the shortest being out to the Keizer district. The longest travel in Marlon county, 23 miles, will be to the Roaedale and Fairriew district. according to his tentative terri tories. The Middle Grove district. near Silverton, will have the must students, according to advance registration. With nine routes in the offing, and one bus for each route, the investment to be made by any hauler who secures the contract is going to run Into a considerable sum. Should the board not be able to contract with one man for that many busses. It may be that an ef fort will be made to get the far man at each route inasmuch as the routes radiate from Salem like spokes of a wheel to equip a bus and bring the students along his line in. That suggestion was made yesterday by Mr. Tavenner, and is just one of the plans which may be attempted should present negotia tions fail.

Crem, Salem, To Handle Bank Jam at Astoria plans made by others, and that "those in first authority" were competent t o discuss further plans. The ambassador reflected his dislike of ceremony by the easy formality of his talk with news papermen, dressed in light busi ness suit and smoking his under slung pipe, he made himself per fectly comfortable at a flat-top ped desk. He laughed at references to his appearance at court last night mi nus the silk knee breeches which distinguished the appearances of two of his predecessors at ajnilar formalities, but declined to make a word of comment. ft 5&VJRn"fc V Br w ryrauuTB aapasim irsaxiiaaa prepared In the prohlbiton bu reau, Mr. Hoover conferred with a responsible official of the treas ury.

The action of the president re sulted in a hurried summons for Miss Ana B. Sutter, head of the educational division of the prohi bition unit, under whose direction the pamphlet was prepared aad printed by the government print ing office with the expense de frayed out of the $50,000 prohibi tion educational fund made avail able by congress.
