"We hope to provide a real treat for hunters within a tew years by having wild turkeys for them to bag,' said Claggett.

(AP) The celebrated speech by Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, form er assistant attorney general, at Springfield. Ohio during the heat of. last year's political campaign today resulted in an exchange of statements between James Fran cis Burke, ot the republican na tional committee, and the sponsors of a series of newspaper articles now being written by Mrs. wille brandt. Recently Mrs. Willebrandt wrote that she bad been nrged by two members ot the republican national committee to make the sneech and that the manuscript had been edited by Burke. Last night Burke said he had not urged Mrs. Willebrandt to discuss religion- and that the manuscript re viewed by him did not contain "any such expressions as 'go back to rout pulpits and preach this doctrine " .

(AP) The U. S. Rubber .company in its first earnings report since the Dupont interests took control to day announced net Income of 596,926 for the first six months of the year. This is an improve ment of $2,686,923 over the first six months of 1928 when express ed comparably. In addition there was a loss of $14,147,659 last year due to the adjustment rub- ber valne in all Inventories, as of June 30, 192S.

FEDEML RESERVE BOOSTS ITS HATES NEW YORK, Aug. 8. (AP) The New York. Federal Reserve bank today raised its rediscount rate from S to C per cent, the highest rate since the difficult days of the deflation period of 1920-21. The fire per cent rate has endured since July, 1928. The action came as a complete surprise to Wall street, as appre hensions over the rediscount rate had completely subsided, since the recommendation ot the federal re serve advisory council last May that the New York bank be per mitted to raise its rata had brought no immediate result. Fur thermore Wall street had not ex pected the New York bank to I PROFITS raise Its rate as long as the bank Funeral services Friday.

(AP) Oil operations In 60 counties of southwestern Texas now net $20,000,000 annually to farmers ranchmen and other land owners. This return from, once unpro fitable land represents payments for oil lease rentals and royalties on production, not to mention the net returns to operators. Scarce. ly one-third of this sector, which embraces 42,000,000 acres, is covered by 7,000 oil and gas tests that have been made to date Operators predict that this year's production, flowing from 3,600 active wells, will exceed the record of 1916, when more than 16J00,000 barrels were produc ed. Nearly nair that mucn was brought to the surface before May 1 this year.

Some people opine If anyone likes to talk, senators and repre sentatives do: but Senator Charles McNary and Representative Willis Hawley were only allowed to bow when, they were introduced at the pnblio ceremonies at Willsoa park Thursday morning. Hal Hoss, secretary of state, also took his bOw, as did Comrade Clark, de partment commander of the Span ish war veterans. W. C Burrell, vice-commander of the Bend pest, brought his family along to vacation while he takes in the convention and does his bit to help the Bend drum corps place as high as the Judges'!! let it tonight, incidentally, Bur rell and his party consisting of Mrs. Burrell, their daughter Lois Mae, Mrs. S. R. Brown and the letter's daughter Virginia- aren't having to dispute rooms with any one; they're stopping at the mu nicipal auto park. Burrell says Bend has been especially active with its baseball and community service programs. Mrs. Burrell is, of course, a member of the auxtl- ary, and she's doing her share ot eonventionlng. Bend is sending it first drill team, directed by Mrs. Ralph Dexter, to the '"do nga" this year. Among fne Jackson county aux iliary members who are doing and enjoying at the convention is Mrs. Lydla King, formerly nurse with the Marion couaty child health service. She managed to steal enough time from the big celebra tion yesterday morning to call in and show her old friends of the M. C. C. H. D. that she can play while they work. T. A. Llvesley. mayor of Salem, Thursday morning. In part, wel comed the Legionnaires in these words: "I feel perfectly safe to place the city entirely In your hands, and with that feeling 1 hereby hand over the keys ot the city to you, relieving regular of ficers to some extent." ' Salem is surely giving us a hearty welcome," declared Ben S. Fisher, state commander, after he had enjoyed the city's hospitality for a few hours Thursday. "We are getting off to a good start with our program." "ThU is going to be the largest convention in the Legion history ot Oregon.' declared Carl Moser, state adjutant, at the airport ded ication Thursday. Moser said he was well pleased with the way things were going. Thoughtful of the boys who could never attend a Legion con vention, the War Mothers organ ization in Salem saw to It Thurs day that flowers were placed on the memorial statue at the court house. Mrs. Mildred Brooks and Mrs. R. J. Hendricks arranged for the flowers and saw to It that they were properly placed. That boy scout's drum corps from Cottage Grove may make some ot the older aggregations look to their laurels in a few years. At their present perfec tion they ought to be smart when they grow up. Those "Mary's Little Lamb" badges which the Medford girl3 are wearing certainly show where they stand in this matter ot aux iliary president. It seems that Mary Cheney doesn t even have to whistle to get them to follow her. No move ta "hide ber" so far as they are concerned. "The Salem civic male chorns will now sing a German folk song. Tim Rooney at the Fightin.' " an nounced Carl Gabrlelson, master of ceremonies at the public open ing event at Willson park Thurs day morning. The crowd, maybe seeing the smile at the corner of Carl's mouth, tittered a bit. And some of It the crowd opined to themselves that it was an Irish one. "With 123 delegates registered, representing 68 units, this conven tlon promises to be exceptionally fine," said Mrs. Mable Mclnturff of Marshfield, secretary-treasurer of the Legion auxiliary. Mrs. Mc lnturff is a former Salem girl and the daughter ot Mrs. Elizabeth Wetbom. She is ons of the moat notable figures in the state auxil iary and takes a very prominent part in all its activities.

Among the visitors for the three days in Salem are Judge and Mrs. Arlle G. Walker ot McMinnvllle. Judge Walker, was formerly a hard-working member of the le gion post at S her Idas and that or ganization backed him in his cam paign tor the circuit judgeship. Only two votes were cast against the judge is his home precinct. ' The Baker drum corps worked itself up to winning pitch per haps, by its march about town through the day. Baker is not only out to win the drum corps but the post there is insistent that the city be chosen as 1930 legion conven tion headquarters. The boys are garbed with shining silk panta loons aad Vlth their yellow shirts make a riot of color as they par ade the streets. Salem's two hour park limit would bo severely strained it the "40 et 8" train from Medford were te draw up and call a halt at some curbstone. Tha spectators would be so Interested in the unique train with its little cars and engine that they would almost refuse to let it leave the spot. A score ot kids were swarmed about the train as It was halted on s street in Salem Thursday. A large number of visiting le gionnaires checked in at the Elsi nore theatre Thursday to see The Flying Fleet," a picture of excep tional merit. The antics of a large squadron of navy filers are vividly portrayed and the picture is cli maxed by a naval flight to Hono lulu. With a good story running throughout and the authenticity of naval action gained by action scenes from the naval school at San Diego, the picutre is unusual ly attractive. Earl Goodwin, who has pounded a typewriter for the Oregon Jour nal In Portlnad for several years, is in Salem to "do" the conven tion. Goodwin's stories will be fol lowed with especial interest by le gion men, with wlom he is widely acquainted.. The four-column picture of the flying squadron from the air corps at Crissey field, printed in The Statesman Thursday was made by the 15th Photo section of the 1 Army Air corps. Several other re markable pictures ot the observa tion squadron were omitted through lack of space. The squad ron Is shown In these views flying in well-nigh perfect order, high above the bay at San Francisco: s- While he is now pretty thor oughly occupied by the affairs of being justice ot the peace, Brazier Small, chairman ot the legion's airport representation, was In the naval air service during the war. One time the judge was flying his plane chasing ducks and one of the ducks got tangled in the wing of his plane. The judge came down to the surface of the water and thereby hangs a story and a thrill. Some of the legion delegates feel very much at home In the leg islative halls, for they have la bored there before. Among them are Dr. W. Carlton Smith of Salem and Allan Bynon and Wilbur Hen derson ot Portland, all members of the lower house at the last ses sion; and Senator Edward F. Bailey of Harrisburg.

He had first been asked to catch, but delined on account Of lack of practice. Its the easiest thing in the world to start a parade. Just start a drum corps down the street, and the traffic just naturally has to fall in behind. e E. L. Clark ot La Pine, state commander of the Spanish-American war veterans, is here as an honor guest ot the legion. He says the legionnaires make more whoopee on the streets, but the Spanish war veterans are better at attending the business -sessions. The oldfrray bus service ain't what she used to be. Three ot the SP'a vehicles stood in line with the rest of 'em while Med ford's pride did its stuff in the middle ot State and High streets for at least ten minutes with five minutes for warming up. One lively member ot the horse less carriage outfit nonchalantly admitted at 3 a. m. Thursday that he had no place to sleep. "I have made every convention since they Started having them in . Oregon and haven't had a place to sleep yet, so I am not worried. Til be getting used to It soon." Whether the' four-man drum corps without uniforms was in tending to enter the contest caused much speculation Thurs day night. The boys were good enough to get notice and bold enough to march with the best of them. Pink crepe paper pinafores and bonnets, and an active lamb were clever features of the skit pre sented by the Medford women at the glee club concert Thursday night in Willson park. Take-offs on various southern Oregon towns were appreciated hugely by the large audience. "One of Mary's Little Lambs" Is the slogan on effective badges worn by the Medford delegation to the auxiliary convention. Toy Iambs are tied to the badges, which are worn to advertise the candidacy of Mrs. Mary Chaney of Medford for the presidency of the auxiliary this coming year. Mary has a little bell to call her lambs into her fold, and Its tinkle is heard throughout the convention hall at many unexpected mo ments. "Help Yourself" was the big placard oh washtubB full of gladl oil placed at the entrance of the convention halls Thursday after noon.
