McMahan's Place Upon
Bench Here
Rumblings of Coming Polit
ical Fight Heard in Lo
cal District
Opposition to I.. H. McMahan,
Circuit Judge, in his race for re
nomination at the republican par
ty primary in May appears certain
as a result of developments of the
pest few weeks.
It haa been reported reliably
that at least four aspirants were
casting covetous optics in the di
rection of the bench in depart
ment No. 2 of the circuit court.
Those whose names are most fre
quently connected with the race
are C. M. Inman, Custer Ross and
E. M. Page. John Carson, dis
trict attorney, is also mentioned
as a possibility.
While none of them will admit
at! present that he will actually
oppose Judge McMahan for the
nomination, there is said to be
good reason to believe that each
in private has been parading be
fore the mirror to determine just
how well the judicial robes would
set on his shoulders. There is a
real attraction in a judgeship for
lawyers.
Opposition Begins to
Assume Definite Shape
Rumblings of opposition to Mc
Mahan had been heard for some
time but not until the past few
days had they taken definite form.
It was Tldent that the judge
tirred up a hornet's nest in his
attack on county officials. There
was considerable talk about the
court house that this broadside
was ill-timed and unbecoming a
circuit Judge, and it was broadly
hinted that his appeal . to the
grange for an investigation was
for "political purposes only."
Meanwhile, Judge" McMahan'a
piei ring grey eyes survey the sit
uation from his court house office
with the utmost complacency.
They see nothing but victory in
the approaching campaign. Judge
Mr-Mahan Is banking on his 'Wltro
er.;.:nintanee in Linn and Marion
tountiee.
Ji:- :::il:ent Xot Worried
Ov v Prospective Fight
He professes no worry over pos
sible opposition, calmly asserting
that he has been "in the fight for
decent things in government for
4 5 years."
Mr. Inman admits that friends
have been urging him to under
, take the race but states that he
has not considered the matter
seriously. He has an aversion to
the idea of conducting a political
fight for a judicial post, believing
that the bench should seek the
man. On his behalf, it is urged
that he is an outstanding student
of law and a man who would
grace the circuit bench.

caution Against Recurring Bladder Trouble
But Is Reported in Cheerful Mood
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. (AP) William Howard Taft,
formerly the president and now the chief justice of
the United States, slept tonight in a hospital bed happy in
the assurance of physicians that the ailment from which he
is suffering would respond to
treatment within a week.
Recurring bladder trouble
necessitated his entrance into the
hospital. For several years the
condition disturbed him. After
his present stay at Garfield hos
pital, Mr. Taft plans to go to
Asheville, . C, for several weeks
of rest.
The chief justice was in a cheer
ful mood today, his decision to
drop the exacting court work for
a time having restored his custo
mary chuckle. He 'transacted
business for several hours with
his secretary and law clerk before
going to the hospital, the last he
will do for several weeks. He
then walked to his automobile for
the ride to the hospital with Mrs.
Taft, arriving there he made
cheerful inquiry for his room.
On the advice of his physicians,
the chief Justice will completely
divorce himself from ail work for
several weeks. He took with him
to the hospital a collection of
books and will receive others
from time to time, but will give
bo attention whatever to his cor
respondence or Judicial duties.
While he is in the south rest
ing, the same rule prohibiting
work of any kind will be observed.
Although the chief justice will be
permitted to read books of his
own selection, he will be required
to take a complete rest. Mrs.
Taft will not accompany him
south.
sicians were called in. reporting
in turn to the health officer.
Dr. Douglas urges that all par
ents watch their children, and
especially pre-school children,
carefully and get In touch with a
physician or county nurse Imme
diately when signs of illness are
found. Parents are. urged also
to send their children to the im
munizatlon clinic held each Sat
urday morning at the Salem
health center on North High
street, beginning at 8:30 o'clock,
where doses of toxin-antitoxin will
be given without charge.
The health officer expects a lit
tle increase In diphtheria this
year, Inasmuch as the disease
comes in wares every aix or seT-
en years and this is about time
for a heavier appearance of it-
Last January there was a little
flurry of diphtheria, with aix or
seven cases reported.

Rift Widens as Party Lash is
Asked Against Indepen

By FRANCIS M. STEPHENSON
Associated Press Staff Writer
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7 (AP)
The split in senate Republican
ranks widened into a menacing
chasm today as the question of
recognition in the party's organi
zation of the bolting western inde
pendents came to an Issue on the
appointment or Senator LaFol
lette, of Wisconsin, to the power
ful finance committee.
That Is the committee which
controls revenue and the tariff
legislation, over which the west
ern independents and the party
regulars clash regularly. After
an attempt to sidetrack LaFol
lette was made today, the inde
pendents met and served notice of
a battle.
The republican, quarrel was
complicated by differences among
the party regulars themsplvpH.
and by warnings from the demo
cratic side that if the issue of La
Follette's appointment were
fought out on the floor, there
would be some democratic sup
port for him.
A continuation of th d
tic - western republican indepen
dent coalition which has existed
in the senate on the farm relief
and tariff issues during the Hoov
er administration carries some
far reaching possibilities.

Poor Sportsmanship Decried
and Cleanup Started
By Principal
Driving another spike In his der
termination to rid Salem high
school of both realities and stigma
of rotten sportsmanship, Principal
Fred Wolf Monday ordered Bob
Kelley and Earl Pettit, football
and basketball lettermen, to re
main out of classes until they
turn in all athletic letters andjn
sighia awarded by the school.
Both boys were still away from
classes at- the close of school yes
terday. Wolf's ultimatum came after
Kelley and Pettit refused to play
basketball because players were
not given complimentary tickets
to the games. The two boys, de
ciding team members should re
reive "comps", attempted to or
ganize a strike among all the play
ers before the last game, and this
failing, declared themselves off
the team until they received
passes.
-The principal said yesterday he
would not tolerate such a bolshe
vik act, particularly in the face of
the fact that all aspirants to
teams were warned early last fall
that no free tickets would be giv
en to players after the li29 foot
ball season was ended. Wolf de
cried the cropping out of this un-
sportsi&anlike attitude and said
he intended to deal with such acts
as he believed they should be
handled.
The state high school athletic
association scowls upon the prac
tice of Issuing free tickets to play
ers, he said.

It is believed that no damage
has been caused to fall sown grain
as yet, but if alternated freezing

grain will be damaged. However,

Plans for a six cylinder automo
bile burning cheap oil were re

Columbus, Ind., following a 792-
mile trip in a Diesel powered car
at a fuel cost of 81.38.
The engine will be constructed
for use in the Indianapolis Memo
rial day race for a demonstration
of the reliability and economy of
oil burning cars.
"We do not expect to win th
race," Cummins said, "but by car
rying a fuel supply that will lat-t
for the entire grind we hope to
eliminate pit stops and to main
tain a speed of 80 to 85 miles an
hour.
Decision to build the engine
came after the successful trin
from Indianapolis to the national
automobile show here, a trip view
ed by the Inventor as "a labora
tory experiment to see if the ei-

The engine mounted in the au

type Diesel, a four cylinder model
with no refinements for passeurer
car uses except prefection of
throttling device, which allowed
the driver to control the engiao
like an ordinary gasoline motor.
Cummins' engine, the result of
12 years of work in the field, dif
