The Union Pacific streamlined train win arrtre In Salem at 9:10 a. m. Saturday, March 24. It will be
parked for public inspection on Trade street between Church and Cottage from 9:80 a. to. to 7 p. m.
liocal arrangements are being handled by the Soathern Pacific The train, la made up of three cars, yet
its wteight equals only that of one Pullman. It is drlren by power generated by s 600 horsepower en
gine and the train is capable of a marlmnm speed of 110 miles an hour.
PROGRAM IS TOPIC
Means of retaining and develop
ing the Boy Scout program In
Cascade area Marion, Polk and
Linn counties will be discussed
by area councllmen with James
E. West, national chief executive,
and Arthur Schnck, chief of the
division of operations, at the
northwest regional scout confer
ence to be held at Portland next
Monday. The area here has been
hard pressed for funds the past
several years and last summer
was forced to drop Its paid execu
tive.
The area council since that
time has collected sufficient mon
ey to pay off $1300 on its deficit
and meet operating expenses but
ha.s not yet put its affairs in
shape to permit hiring an execu
tive, as is expected to be required
by Bcout authorities.
Monday s .conference, which a
number of Salem men, including
A. C. Haag, council president,
will attend, will open with a noon
luncheon at the Benson hotel. Fol
lowing afternoon meetings there,
a banquet will be held at the Port
land Masonic temple at 6:30 p. m.
If today follows the brilliant
example of yesterday the good
old tradition of a stormy vernal
equinox will be smashed. In case
you don't remember what an equi
nox Is, it occurs March 21 and
signifies the intersection of the
great circle described by the sun
with the terrestrial equator. The
equinox happens in the fall, too.
on September 21
Today the sun should rise at
6 a. m. and set at 6 p. m. as the
earth has exactly half of Its
sphere exposed to old Sol. Violent
storms throughout the world are
traditional during the equinox
period, said to be caused by the
united tidal action of the sun and
moon upon the atmosphere, which
is greater at this time than at
any other.
Spring begins officially today
but since Oregon has been enjoy
ing warm .weather for the past
two months it Is doubtful If the
vernal equinox will cause much
stir.

harbors a hope it may be started

I,
PORTLAND, March 20.-(ff-A
speedy determination of the legal
ity of the Portland milk ordinance
which provides for degrading milk
will be sought, City Attorney
James Bain said.
Tomorrow he will file answer to
the H. E. Kriger suit to prevent
the city to degrade his milk from
"A" to "B" without submitting it
to a board of arbitration.
A temporary restraining order
against effectiveness of the de
grading was granted today by Cir
cuit Judge L. P. Hewitt When
the city answer is filed date for
hearing on a permanent injunc
tion will be held.
Judge Hewitt held that "if the
milk were unclean it would be the
duty of the city to debar it from
sale altogether. ... To degrade
the milk merely means that the
price would be lowered and those
less able to protect themselves
from disease or an epidemic would
purchase and use it."
Kriger may sell his milk as
grade "A" pending final action.

One of the Strangest
Ever Filmed!
E
Says He Refused CWA Job
Because He Was Under
Care of Doctor
Replying yesterday to charges
that he had refused to accept a
CWA job last January, Albert
Wood of West Salem declared he
had been injured while working
tor the Spauldlng Logging com
pany last December and was under
a physician's care at the time
such employment was offered him.
The charge that he had refused to
work was made Saturday night by
Lelf Fniseth, Polk county CWA
director. .
Wood said progress was being
made towards clearing the relief
situation in West Salem.
"The working people of West
Salem desire a change in the dis
tribution of Red Cross relief and
many of them, including several
business men, are signing the copy
of the petition that was taken to
Portland last Friday as we prom
ised the state relief office 100
signatures on the petition." Wood
explained. "We feel that we
Bhould have just as good a relief
system as the city of Salem where
the workers receive plenty of
food, clothes and fuel, and God
knows as well as the people that
we don't get it In West Salem un
der the present system.
"If your charges are false why
do not these gentlemen offer to
go with us and face the people
who have signed these petitions
which state they have not had ad
equate relief. My wife and chil
dren asked for clothes and fuel
last December when I was crippled
and they did not receive either
clothes or fuel. If anyone cares to
go with us we can lead them to a
large number of homes in West
Salem where the people are afraid
to complain for fear their food
and CWA work will be cut off by
the powers that be in West Salem
and Dallas."
Wood further stated that he
had never been known as Harvey,
as stated Saturday by Finseth.
Arguments for
Ekwall Filing
Heard Tuesday
Arguments of attorneys were
heard in the state supreme court
yesterday In the mandamus pro
ceeding brought by Circuit Judge
Ekwall of Portland to compel P
J Stadelman, secretary of state.
to file his declaration of candidacy
for the republican nomination for
representative in congress from
the third congressional district.
Stadelman refused .to file the
declaration on the ground that
Ekwall had signed an oath that
he would not accept any office
other than a Judicial office dur
ing the term for which he was
elected.

RILEY COiJViCTiDN
The state supreme court, In an
opinion written by Justice Camp
bell, yesterday affirmed Judge
Wood of the Harney county cir
cuit court in the case involving
Harry R. Riley, who is under
death sentence for slaying his
wife, Hilda Riley, at Burns on
October 31, 1932. Riley also was
alleged to hare shot and killed
his father-in-law, Carey Thorn
burg, but he was not tried for
this offense.
The law provides that Riley
will now have to be returned from
the state penitentiary to Harney
county for re-sentencing.
Records in the case show that
Riley and his wife had some do
mestic difficulties with the result
that she left him in Portland in
September, 1932, and returned to
the home of her parents at Burns.
Mrs. Riley later filed suit for div
orce against her husband but this
had not been disposed of at the
time of the tragedy.
SENATE ASKS FOB
ITS HOARDER LIST
WASHINGTON, March 20.-UP)
-The senate today was in the un
usual position of demanding from
the treasury a list of silver hoard
ers assembled by authority of its
own subpoenas.
Special agents of the treasury,
acting at Secretary Morgenthau's
direction, obtained the long list of
persons holding speculative silver
stocks on the New York market.
But the stimulus which made sil
ver dealers supply the names was
the authority of senate subpoenas.
This was disclosed today after
senate approval of the resolution
of Senator Robinson (R., Ind.)
asking the treasury for the list
which Morgenthau has said show
ed some silver advocates to be
"not disinterested" in the market.
Shortly after the senate vote,
Ferdinand Pecora, counsel for the
banking committee, visited Mor
genthau s office.
At the treasury it was thought
likely that when the senate resolu
tion had been delivered, Morgen
thau would forward the names on
file, though the Robinson resolu
tion would permit a refusal "if not
compatible with the public In
terest."
Voters to Ballot
on Manager Plan
The proposed charter amend'
ment to create a managerial form
of government for Salem will be
brought before the voters by in
itiative petition In November if
the council refuses to call a spe
cial election for the purpose May
18, Mayor Douglas McKay de
clared yesterday. Monday night
the council failed to vote on the
special election ordinance but It
may do so at the April 2 meeting.
It made all Holly,

150,000 Persons Expected,
Says Gehlhar; Numerous
Improvements Made
An attendance of 150,000 per
sons at the 1934 state fair was
predicted yesterday noon by Max
Gehlhar, director, speaking to the
I Salem Klwanis club. "We had
100,000 last year; with our im
provements to the plant and with
new features we have planned, we
hope for a 50 per cent increase,"
Gehlhar said.
Gehlhar said CWA expenditures
had totaled M0, 000 In the last
three months, with the fair board
putting (15.000 additional into
materials and $12,000 being spent
by private concerns
A milking contest In which win
ners will be determined on the
basis of the cow furnishing tire
largest cash returns on a stated
amount of food; an egg laying
contest and an irrigation exposi
tion are new features planned for
this year, Gehlhar said.
"We'll have the one-mile track
ready by fall," he declared. "Our
track will be the best this side of
Caliente."
Gehlhar said space for county
exhibits had been changed and
improved with the hope that each
of Oregon's 36 counties would
have a display this year.
Salem people will be asked to
use a new entrance developed at
the south side of the fairgrounds.
In this way blocking of the Pa
cific highway will be obviated.
The fair director cited as im
provements 764 lineal feet of new
buildings constructed, one and
one-half miles of parking rails, 37
buildings repaired and partially or
entirely repainted, six acres of
lawns and one-half mile of new
flower beds.
