When the recommendations of t Ji- commission were submitted to tlia president, It was said they would be transmitted to congress as soon as the special committee had been created. Since this plan of handling the legislation has been disapproved by house lead ers, the president decided to send up the recommendations Monday. Kxact Contents of Rcrouiirifmlation.t Guarded These recommendations are understood to deal with the bor der patrols, the transfer of the prohibition unit and several other subjects but their contents are being closely guarded both by the White House and the commis sion. The commission's statement, prepared by Chairman Wicker ehain, was the first to be made fiuce the group came under at tack some weeks ago. It made no reference to the assaults, but re viewed just what Its work entails and the progress that it has been able Jo make. Ia stating that the preliminary examination demonstrated the in adequacy of the criminal law en forcement machinery, the com mission said that "prohibition, automobile theft, white slave traffic, immigration and other criminal laws of the. federal gov ernment have overtaxed the ca pacity and effectiveness of the national machinery for enforce ment."

King was said to have been associated In this affair with Ralph Hunter, who has been' arrested In Eugene. Both men, accompanied by two girls, were said to have been here Thursday, Hunter and the girls going on to." Eugene. They were arrested on information sent by Chief Henry Storlie after a tele gram they bad sent to King ar rived here. Reports that King, or Balcom as he atyled himself when first arrested, had broken away from the chief before his spectacular flight in a series of stolen auto mobiles, each of which he wreck ed or stalled in the mud, were In correct, the chief explained today.

Th KatlonaKK GTenunent wai o 1EMCTFMF1I Under protest and great urging the preview of "Untamed" at the Fox Elslnore Friday was attended for the purpose of casting a crit ical eye over it It was worth the cold midnight air and that Is the truth. Joan Crawford is a new Joan in this picture. She was sweet and full of pep in "Our Modern Maid ens" but in this picture she Is just plain "untamed." Her acting is far above the average and leads one to believe that the girl is where she is because 3ha has done as the publicity agents say she has worked with an ideal to be "the best" that hard work and no little talent could make her. She has goue so far beyond the pic ture of "Our Modern Maidens" that her future looks really bril liant. The story itself Is a bit far fetched in spots one has to be somewhat blind and credulous, but that is all right one has to be that way with life so It won't hurt to take ones amusement the same way. Ernest Torrence is one of the be3t Scotchmen with a genuine and nufailing accent whom one could ask to see and hear. He is comedy and human interest through the whole picture. Robert Montgomery, the young chap from Broadway, who appear ed in "So This is College." is showing exceptionally fine work. "Untamed" Is good. It makes the Canadian police slogan of get your man" blaze out in po- LJite society. ANOTHER MEETING Members of the Portland and Eugene units of the Active Club International attended the second preliminary organization meet ing of the projected Salem club Thursday night. Donald Husband and James Harding, prominent members of the Eugene club, and Bert Gooding and Hal McEwan of the Portland clnb were present and urged the local men not to postpone organization.
