By turning to the wheat sana tion., the board has undertaken the solution of one phase of the farm relief problem "which was often cited by those who had a hand In obtaining the enactment of a farm relief bill. ; ' The Chicago meeting, however. will find the board still without its member intended to speak for the wheat Industry.; President Hoover has a number; of men un der consideration for this post but as yet has not been able to decide upon one. ITS FLIGHT (Continued from Page 1.) Louis firms and the makers of the Challenger motor with which the plane Is powered. - The craft swung in wide cir cles above Lambert-St. Louis field throughout the day, at a meas ured speed of about sixty miles an hour, and continued over its air path tonight Upon passing Its 275th hour the 'St. Louis Robin' had trav elled more than 16,000 miles, consumed more than 2,300 gal lons of gasoline, over 105 gallons of oil, and the propeller bad re volved more than 20,000,000 times.

A light refueling was completed at 4 p. m., and the nightly load of gas, oil and food was taken on be fore darkness fell.

CREATIVE SELLING HELD HI TREND (Continued from Page 1.) mind that he is selling service, not land or structures, and to this end his preparation should be thor ough; Herren told the realtors .The adequate preparation should Include knowledge ef the real es- state listed, to be gained through a. careful survey of property and as much knowledge as possible to learn about the ; prospect himself. Were this end i of the business note carefully studied, the public would soon discard its notion of realtors as persons working only for a . juicy commission, Herren ' eaid. , Congressman' Willis C. Hawley of : Oregon and chairman of the house ways and means committee, gave the principal address at the . morning session, with brief talks given by. Governor Patterson, Mayor T. A. Livesley and J.

NO iES 1 Convention B i. -' Who says realtors can talk only in terms of houses, and lots and leash? Listen to this bit of advice in one tit the opening-day speech es: "Don't throw your mouth into high gear until your brains start working! - A. John Serge,: sales counselor with the national real estate asso ciation, who Is here to assist in Conducting the conference on Salesmanship", spends ' as many spare moments as he ean riding locomotives on the "inside. Any way, that's one of his hobbles, so confided to the scores of realtors. Ilcldentally. to relieve the monot ony of the fer-day trip from the east, he and William Herren, also on the national body, sat for four or five hours Tuesday afternoon in the cab of the biggest locomo tive in the world.- "America' and "God Save the King" shared equal honors in the opening - program Wednesday morning, the latter being sung by the audience In deference to the realty members from. British Co lumbia. The UnloU Jack, too, dis played prominently with the Stars and Stripes, betokened the pres ence of the Province realtors, who are members of the northwest as sociation. Ton couldn't tell by looking at the program and by the way, It's a neat one that the ladies were anything but wives. And that de spite the fact that several dozen of the women are realtors in their own right. In fact. In Portland the women realtors have a board of their own; and that board Is well represented here.' Mrs. T. Keller, president of the Portland women, had planned to be In attendance, but illness had a say-so and she couldn't come. This started out to say not a single realty woman nor a married one has a place on the convention program proper. A garden party and dance Wed nesday, a theatre party this morn ing, inspection of the linen mills this afternoon, organ recital to night: a no-host luncheon, bridge and the annual banquet Friday fill the ladies' entertainment pro gram. The rest of the time they sit and listen to the men talk. They were mighty good listeners Wednesday, but nobody knows jrrams and the expenditure there in involved. Hawley said that the present taxation system was especially un just to real estate, with the pro duction of wealth there from 50 per cent now and taxes 80 per cent, as compared to production of wealth a hundred years ago of 90 per cent. Tax, the congressman stated, should be measured "by ability to pay. A past president's dinner at th? Marion, where realtors are mak ing their headquarters and an old-time dance for the entire &roup at the' armory were held L tt night. There is more bitter feeling against Americans and English men among the peasant people of France, than there is against the Germans, declared Frank Miller, chairman of the state public serv ice commission, in an address be fore the Salem Rotary club at Its Wednesday luncheon. His topic was his recent tour around the world. Reasons for this feeling, he said, with respect to the Americans ere the United States' refusal to can cel the war debt, and the claims that "America saved France f rota defeat in the World war. Their view Is rather that France saved the United States from a German invasion and conquest. JH With all of its suffering, mfen ery and death, the World war was a good thing for Europe, Mr. Mil ler said, because it brought home to the old world nations, the reall ties of modern life. Despite the bitterness against living Americans, the graves of American war victims in France are carefully tended and highly respected, the speaker said. One unworthy condition which still exists as an aftermath of the war. is the presence of large bodes of Sinhalese and other colored troops from French possessions, In the Rhine region of German.

William Herren, peppy and pur poseful speaker from the national board, talking: "I don't want to be quoted, but I think the real estate business .would be better off if half the people In it were out." Glenn D. Willaman came up from Los Angeles to bring greet ings of the California realty board. He's secretary of the state group down there and. will give the prin cipal address Friday morning. Mrs. Willaman is here with him. Talk about your busy men: T. W. Zimmerman,executive secre tary of the group for the past seven years ought to know the ropes by this time so he can go through the whole three days with his eyes shut. But he can't; he has to keep 'em wide open to let the two or three who are waiting for word know he knows they're there.
