Fort- OF MICH CHOSEN OMMM 1 The OREGON E S Three Killed, Much Property Damaged In Explosions Over Country By the Associated Press Federal investigators and police of a dozen cities combined efforts Friday night to stamp out the growing menace or bombs, most of 'them directed at Influential Italians. In the last few' days at least iz bombs have been dispatched by man xt express, intended for Italian consults or others Identi fied with the Fascist movemenL In addition other scattered bomb ings or attempted bombings were reported throughout the country Friday. After the first of the Infernal machines exploded in the Easton, Pa., postofflce Wednesday the en tire nation, and particularly per sons connected with the Italian government, became wary of all packages from unknown persons. None of the persons to whom bombs were addressed was kill ed or injured, although three- deaths resulted from explosion of the bombs found at Easton. Two postal clerks were killed almost instantly and a dynamite expert died Thursday night of injuries received when one of the rseven bombs seized there exploded as he examined it. Bomb Addressed To Italian Consul Chicago police definitely estab lished Friday that the package addressedto Giuseppi Castruccio, Italian consul in that city, was another bomb, the second sent to Chicago by express. Officers Bet off the bomb in a stone quarry and reported that the explosion was strong enough to wreck a large city building. The other bomb sent by ex press to Chicago was addressed to Oscar Durante, editor of a pro Fascist newspaper. He refused to accept the package and his fears pwere confirmed when police fired at the box and found It to be a powerful bomb. Count Ugo Bern! Cananl, De troit Italian vice-consul; Count Cedsare Buzzi grandenigo, Italian consul at Cleveland and Dr. A. Rasapepe, Italian consular agent at Youngstown, Ohio, were the targets of similar attempts. In each case, however, the bombs were turned over to the authori ties and disposed of harmlessly. Trinidad Home And Store Blown up The combined home and gro cery store of R. Dionisio, an Ital ian living in Trinidad, Colo., was destroyed by an explosion, believ ed to have been caused by a bomb early Friday. The family was not at home and no motive was appar ent. In the rear of a Cincinnati commission merchant house, eight sticks of dynamite, a fuse and two batteries were found. The author ities thought, however, that they had been hidden by a . gang of safe blowers. Belleaire, Ohio, reported the frustration of a plot on Angelo Cl- faldl, Italian merchant. Police stationed at his home after he had received threats arrested three men and seized 11 sticks of dyna mite under his house. The combination home and res taurant of an Italian at Paris, 111., was rocked by the explosion of a bomb. The man said he knew of no enemies. Fuse Goes Out Seattle Man Saved The fuse on a dynamite bomb placed under a porch at Seattle went out in time to save the home of Toshito Onoh, vice president ot the Sunltomo bank. Onoh said he thought it was the work of an enemy of the bank. A package received by the As sociated Press in Chicago, which had been regarded with suspicion, apparently was harmless. It was returned to the postofflce because the addressee was unknown, and erroneous announcement was made that the police were inves tigating it. Apparently, however, the package went Into the dead letter office. Post officials were unable to check this Friday be cause of the holiday, but the package was not turned over to the police. The Chicago office of the Amer ican Express company established a guard of 12 men to scan every package brought Into Chicago at all railroad stations.

O. W. hall New Year's eve. A watch meeting and the refreshments furnished entirely by the men. closed the exercises." The fact that several nights had been given to practice of parts of the program by the male members, who were to furnish it entirely, and that they promised a surprise, had heightened Interest. Invitations had been eagerly sought, so the hall was filled to its seating capacity. The pantomime, "Lord TJllin's Daughter," was screamingly fun ny. Elzy Plckard impersonated the daughter, Frank Schumacher the boatman, while Warren Gray -was Lord Ullln and J. L. Calavan the Highland chieftain who had run away with the raughter. A. F. Lafke delivered an apos trophe to his Ford, in the style of the 24th Psalm. A. M. Schmidt sang a song la German and the encore in Russian, to the delight of the listeners. Jacob Gllmore read the declaration of principles, as laid down by National Presi dent Simpson. But to many the falks on or ganization were the important part of the meeting, and before the crowd dispersed, several appli cations for membership had been received. Horace Addis, a visiting mem ber, briefly reviewed the history of the order, from Its organisation at a small town school house in Texas, in 1902. and told of the IFlmimHM M(IDE illft y I Never beforecc y Flortheiin quality at so low a price.

He pointed to the unorganized condition of the farmers as the reason why they fail to get the legislation they need, while bankers and maddle men secure what they desire through the power of" organiza tion. O. W. Potts followed, with a talk along the same line, in which the need of organization was his principal theme. He told of some of the accomplishments in a na tional way and of some of the alms of the Oregon branch of the Union. Both speakers referred to the oleomargarine tax bill and pointed to the fact that the Union Is pledged to Its support, urged members to do what they can against the referendum the oleo interests have invoked. Shirley Roland, Marion station agent, while not a member, has been a member; of a railroad men's union for IS years. He spoke of the value of organization for any line of workers and ex pressed the hope that every farm er would become a member of this useful organization. In spite of this being a men's program. Miss Rose Hutton, one of the Marion school teachers, gave both an Indian and a Gypsy dance, and little Miss Nida Gll more recited "The Dead Dolly." The women of the order prom ise that It will not be long until they put on an even better pro gram. The next regular meeting wUl D9 neia irriasy night, January II m PAGE FTVT3 TEST r S No New Year Masses Said In Mexico City-When Impasse Reached MADRID. Jan. 1 (AP) Ca tholics of Spain were urged to unKe in defense of the faith in New Year's pastoral letter Issued today by members of the high Spanish clergy who launched a vigorous protest against the new Spanish constitution. That document, they asserted, 'denies the church the ordinary rights granted to citizens." The signers. Including two car dinals, seven archbishops, 4 1 bi shops and two Tlcars, urged that Catholics participate actively In civU and political life to defend the rights of their faith. Those who marry without the sanction of the church will be de prived of the church benefits, the pastoral letter said, directing this admonition at the intervention of the state in matrimonial matters and divorce. The letter also in sists that Catholics defend the right of the church to educate the children of the faithful, in the face of establishment of state con trol over education. MEXICO CITT. Jan. 1 (AP) Mexico's capital lacked New Year masses In Its ? Catholic churches today as the 'religious situation reached an impasse. Church services throughout the federal district (Mexico City) were suspended by government order in churches where the priests had not yet complied with the new law limiting the clergy to one for every 60,000 Inhabitants, a total of 25 for the district, and calling for their registration. Archbishop Pascual Dias, on the other hand, had ordered the priests not to comply with the new law. As a consequence, no masses were said, although, the church remained open. It will be an open meeting. The public Is invited. J. D. Mlckle. state dairy and food commission er, will be the sneaker. His sub ject will be "Oleomargarine." and he will discuss the state oleo tax bill. HaveA Charges Account with us AJNU obi . HAPPY THE French Shop 1 111 N. Hlrfc MmobIs BUr.
