Late tonight the victims were
all reported as having a chance.
The president-elect preferred to
Bake no statement on the inci
dent. Joe Murphy, assistant chief of
the United States secret service,
was here and took over the exam
ination of Zangara.
He made no comment hut po
lks believe Zangara was acting
Individually. No other arrests had
been made.
A huge crowd waited until aft
er 11 o'clock for Mr. Roosevelt to
return to the train. The station is
Just across the street from the
skyscraper jail where the prison
er was undergoing questioning.
The crowd dispersed when it be
came known that Roosevelt was
not leaving. Police precautions
were redoubled tonight but there
was no sign of further trouble.
Sore at Government,
Assailant Declares
"1 am sore at government,"
Zangara is reported to have said,
f because as a kid I had to work
Instead of going to school, and I
am sick now because I had to
work.
"I am a member of no party. I
believe that bolshevism is all
tight.
"I have done my own thinking,
and I reached this decision by my
self." He was questioned on the 23rd
floor of the jail.
Mr. Roosevelt had just sat
down In the back seat of his car
after speaking when the firing
opened. Mayor Gautier of Miami
was beside him.
' As the shooting echoed in the
tropical night screams and shouts
resounded.
"Stop that man lynch him
don't let him kill Roosevelt,"
were heard.
It was a woman who first jar
red the firing arm of the would-be
killer Mrs. W. P. Cross of Mi
ami.
James Galloway, of Miami
beach, grabbed the arm of the
man. George Broadnax, a secret
service man, and police leaped
upon him.
Mayor Cermak has been in
Florida for the last week. He
remained to visit with the president-elect
here tonight.
The crowd into which the
shooter fired was filled with
dignitaries and close friends of
Mr. Roosevelt. Cermak was
standing near the Roosevelt car.
Near him were Representative
elect Mark Wilcox of this dis
trict, Marvin H. Melntyre, secre
tary to Roosevelt, Robert H,
Gore, democratic leader from
Chicago, and others.
Tne Roosevelt car was open
without any top.
One of the bullets that hit
another of the group lodged in
Cermak's shirt. That one did no
carnage. Another bullet pierced
the mayor's body. An x-ray shows
the bullet still In the body.
The following conversation be
tween Roosevelt an Cermak took
place at the hospital:
"I am glad it was me instead
of vou." said Cermak. "I wish
you would be careful, the conn
trr needs you."-
, "We need you and men like
you," replied Roosevelt as he
grasped Cermak's hand. The president-elect
also visited the other
victims. The hospital was a scene
of feverish activity. Friends and
relatives were besieging the place
and the telephone switchboard
was plugged with calls. A spe
cial detail of police was stationed
about the hospital.

creased. J. N. Chambers of Com

group will have not more than
1100 for relief In March, and
nothing in April. Pledges totaling
$1000 per month for five months,
terminating with March, have
dwindled to $00. he said.
County Drawing on
Its General Fond
Judge Siegmund said the coun
ty is now drawing on its general
fund for relief, and last month
took about $3,000 from this fund,
In addition to distributing about
400 cords of wood. The county
will need between $,000 and $7,-
000 a month the next two months,
County Commissioner Smith estimated.
White pointed out that the
R. F. C. funds granted are based
on relief according to actual
needs, and that It Is entirely up to
the county as to what Individuals
shall do to get any money made
available.
Application of the county for
money must be in the R. F. C.
hands before Monday, and to this
end White will return here from
Portland Saturday afternoon to
go over the final details on the
application with the county court.
Marion County In
Favorable Position
White, on question, exnressed
the opinion that Marion county,
so long as it asks for only funds
actually needed, will not be pen
alized in its requests because of
fact that thrifty management has
kept the county out of the red.
He cited the experience with Lane
county as somewhat similar.

A prolonged house debate led
by Repreeentattlve Lonergan

of the measure which was spon
sored by Representative Hunt
ington.
The salient provision of the
bill Is further restrictions placed
therein on advertising by den
tists. Hereafter, if the bill be
aomee law, dentists cannot ad
vertise prices on professional
services nor can they have large
signs showing any portion of the
human mouth or skull.
Representative H u n 1 1 ngton

vance In the professional stand
ards of the state. With him Join
ed Representatives Snedecor,
Dammasch, Beckman and Wins
low. Representative Oleen Joined
with Lonergan in opposition to
the bill, holding it curbed the
right of the public to choose
whatever professional man they
desired and was a further move
by the dental profession to elim
inate competition it did not Hke.
Representative Lonergan upheld
the advertising dentist, held he
had a perfect right to seek busi
ness through the Press and claim
ed that ample safeguards were
already provided in the present
dental code.

Misconceptions which some
county residents have on the
channels through which county
business is conducted show ap
now and then In manner in
which communications are ad
dressed. For instance, a resident from
an outlying district wanted to pay
his dog license for the year, -so
he -sent the letter along- to:
Salem Chief of Police; dog li
cense department.
It's the county clerk, and not
the Salem police ehlef, who gar
ners the shekels for dogs of sll
descriptions. Anyway, the post
man knew the difference, and
the county clerk received the
check.
