George J. Moore litigations in the
Marion county court when they
set up allegations concerning the
agreement of orga J. Moore and
Rebecca A. Moore concerning the
companion wills. The Judge In
his decision held that the plain
tiffs, the nieces of Rebecca A.
Moore, because of thi. agreement,
are entitled to receive all of the
property now In the estate of
George J. Moore, deceased, less
reasonable charges and deductions
on account of the illness and fun
eral expenses and the expenses of
probating the estate. John Ed
ward Barry was held to hold the
property in trust to the plaintiffs.
The court's findings say that
claims of Nettle D. Matlock
against the estate are found to
be wholly nnproven.
At the time of Mrs. Moore's
death, the findings state, George
J. Moore took possession of her
226-acro Sidney farm and all of
her personal property, valued in
all at some $50,000.
O. A. Condit of Salem, was
nominated as the executor of Mrs.
Moore's companion will, which
was found among his papers af

also had executed a will naming
Condit as executor of his estate
and leaving all of his property to
the same three nieces of his wife.
After Condlt's death, the two wills
went into the possession of his

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 23 (AP)
Refugees, here from many
ports, are celebrating two Christ
mases or rolling two into on.
Most of them, when, they were
In the old countries, gave a week
to yuletide festivities, and they
have brought their enthusiasm to
Los Angeles.
Russians who counted their
days by the Gregorian calendar
will take part tn the American
celebration Dec. 25 and begin
again with their native observan
ces Jan. 6. which to them is the
real Christmas eve.
Children who arrived from
Mero during the year will re
ceive their first visit from Santa
Ciaus. He was a familiar figure
In Russia but In Mexico presents
were left good children by the
"Reyes Magos," magic kings, the
three wise men of Biblical times.
Reports say, however, Santa is
venturing farther into Mexico
each year.
He is Christmas Itself for the
youngsters, but for older Mexican
children from nine to 90 nothing
can replace the hilarious "La
Pinata." Relatives and neighbors
gather about a large olla or
earthen Jug suspended tn the cen
ter of a room. A guest is blind
folded, given a stick and allowed
three whacks at the olla. If .he
fails to break it he gets the laugh
and somebody else tries. Even
tually the olla is broken and down
comes a shower of candy, fruits
and nuts after which everybody
scrambles.
In one home or another these
"plnatas" are held every night
for a week, which with carol
singing and what not is summed
up nuder the term "Las Posados."
Every Christmas eve "El Na
cimiento" Is observed in the Mex
ican center. Worshippers carry
ing lighted candles enter a stall
where a wax figure of the infant
Jesus lies in a manger. Prayers
are said and then a woman takes
the figure in her arms and leada
the group from door to door, sing
ing carols of hymns.
The Russian Christmas Is mark
ed by hospitality and much feast
ing. "Many will hold open houses,
so their countrymen may come in
and eat, even though they are
strangers," said Mrs. Valentine
Kachmarsky, secretary of the Ukrainian-Russian
civic center.
"Those of the Greek orthodox
faith hold a holy supper on
Christmas eve, Jan. 6.
"After the meal everybody
sings at the table and makes his
resolutions for the new year. Then
they dress in special costumes
and, following a leader who car
ries a star, they, go from house
to house singing carols."
The Mexican and Russian col
onies are the largest in Los An
geles and contain the greatest
number of refugees.
THREE ARRESTED
Another case where gasoline
and moonshine wouldn't mix was
illustrated Wednesday when three
men, R. A. Robnison, Earl Heat-
on, both of Dallas, and J. M.
Robinson of eastern Oregon, were
arrested by officers at Dallas.
The three men with R. A. Rob
inson driving, were traveling west
into Dallas on the Salem-Dallas
highway when RobinsOn drove his
machine into a car driven by
L. V. Broughton, principal of the
Grand Ronde schools. Broughton
was conveying a group of basket
ball players en route to Indepen
dence. None of the players was
injured.
Following their arrest by Chief
Neufeldt, the men in Robinson's
party were examined by a physi
cian to discern any effects of
drinking, and as a result Heaton
and J. M. Robinson will face
charges of drunken and disorder
