From "Pencil Points" ! : : . j r A COPY of the July issue of Pencil Points, x magazine of design has reached this desk. It is devoted to the Ore gon state capitol, with engravings not only of the win ning plan in the. recent competition but of the plans which received honorable mention. - f A! 1 t. kjl (jax iicuiar mieie&i m c pages ui icjm miui-nuu vi preliminary draughts of the capitol by the successful archi tects. Many are crude sketches. One can trace the evolution of the successful sketch through a multitude of preliminary sketches. A square central tower seems to have been an early idea, then a, very low circular dome, and finally the turret capped with a statue emerges. After looking .t the prelim inary sketches one is abundantly satisfied that the "architects persisted until they evolved the final brilliant conception which was adopted. - ' . " The magazine . contains an article "The Design That Won", being notes on how it was arrived at, written by the architects, Messrs. Trowbridge & Livingston and Francis Keally. They trace the evolution of their conceptions of the proper capitol for Oregon under the terms' of the competition, 83 to cubage, cost, and site limitations. J Another article is by Walter H. Thomas of Philadelphia,. ttfncr vota -r tivVtwcf Thomas says the winning design is "fundamentally sound and satisfactory to a high degree", and goes on to say: i :!7 . " - "In plot plan it has a true setting within and a a part of the capitol park grounds. . - "In building plan it presents a compact, workable solution, with due consideration given to frequency and convenience of the respective governmental functions. .It recognizes that the capitol is to house both the legislative and executive branches of the government and gives, therefore, a proper dignity and inter-. relationship of senate, house and. governor and properly"recog nizes the latter as head of the state. "In section, it proves the plan. The main public lobby is impressive and compact. The minor but continuously used . rooms on the ground floor are easily accessible but properly sub ordinated to the main lobby cross vistas leading to the major but less frequently used spaces on the main or second floor.': "In elevation the building has scale. The major unctions are properly emphasized, minor ones are properly suppressed.. The simplicity of the composition, the well-belanced masses, the placing of ornament and carving where needed (and only there) are basically sound and easily give the designer the opportunity of swinging his design to the left' toward further modernism or to the right toward further conservatism if he finds that either " may better express the tradition and trends of the people of Oregon." . i Mr. Thomas is quite critical of many of i the offerings in the competition, and scolds architects .for "mental laziness, and in some cases of. "trickery" in trying to fool the judges as to cubage. , I . i The Oregon competition was one of the big things of the year in professional circles." Reactions noted thus far have been pleasing. There is every reason to believe as the build ing progressed to completion it will win greater praise, and finally, will be recognized both as a thing of rare beauty and one or great utility. New Trade Law ;. ....-. i BUSINESS men in all grades are busy studying.the Robin-son-Patman bill which was enacted by the last congress. T Trade associations, wholesalers, manufacturers, retailers both independent and chain, are setting their, lawyers to work to figure out what it means. The first question that will arise will be over its constitutionality, since it gives to a fed eral body powers previously reserved to individual citizens in the matter of trade. If the bill qualifies before the courts, then the question is, what will be its effect on the existing methods of manufacturing and merchandising? - The bill was sponsored by independent retailers 'in an effort to curb the chain competition. It abolishes favoritism in discounts, prohibits advertising allowances which actually are discounts to large buyers. The; federal trade commission is made umpire for merchandising ! ; " '' Already, one effect is noted in the cancellation of the contract between Goodyear and bears Roebuck lor tne manu facture of tires under a set of discounts which the trade com mission declared was unfair competition, j However Sears announced it was obtaining other sources ; of supply ; tand Goodyear, will divert its production to other ' channels of dis tribution. ! One effect of the law may be to force chain retailers to go into manufacturing themselves; or. manufacturers to go into direct distribution to the trade. Some chains buy up all the product of certain factories, so they would rot be affected bv the law. since no favoritism in .discounts could be shown! Some claim the bill will kick back to the injury ff the independent retailer. Others say it will sharply increase the cost of goods to consumers. : .' 1 ; The law will probably not do all the things which are predicted, either for good or for evil, because some of them are contradictory. It is apparent, .however,? that if the law stands there will be some definite readjustments necessary in the operation of merchandising as at' present carried on. -'A safe forecast is that business will make these adaptations and carry on without a great deal of change in the picture so far a the ireneral retailino scene ia concerned, i . : A few white clouds float lazily Just the advance guard. Within a few weeks the sky will be overcast with dull grey clouds -which old-timeVs will call, the high" fog. to clear by noon. Then will come a day when the high fog fails to clear.

".' On tlio Record Ey DOROTHY THOMPSON The Nejrra Vote The Intensity of the Presiden tial campaign this year has thrown into prominence and Im portance three groupsupon whose votes the outcome may de pend., They are the farmers, or g a n i xe d labor and the Negroes. An analysis of the returns of the Congression al elections of HZ i Indicates that the votes of Porotay . xap these groups swung the elections to the New DeaL Both parties recognize it; hence the , disturbance in Washington over the Lewis-Green fight, which has split the ranks of organized labor, and the possible exploita-' tion of labor's Internal dissension by the Republicans. The Repub licans win, certainly, make ; as much capital out of It as they can. Jt off era, them the only hope : of deflecting part of the labor vote away from the President. The farmers are slipping back in large numbers Into Republican ranks. And the Negroes are extremely important: In' the states where thev are permitted to vote both Republi cans and Democrats are making a great bid for them. In certain states with large Negro popula tions jsew York, Michigan, Penn sylvania, Ohio, Illinois and the border states . of Kentucky and Tennessee their vote In a close election may hold the balance of power. The Negro vote can. con ceivably,-elect or defeat a Presi dents And nowhere Is the cyni cism which oermeates enr nubile life' more apparent than tn tfce scramble for the votes of these people, the outcasts, the disinher ited, the exploited of all mankind, but it has studiously -aroided ap parent benefits to Negroes. The -reason is obvious; the Solid South Is the Democrat stronghold, and a pro-Negro Dollcv on the nart of the Administration is the one thing that would most i ouiek! break down the traditional Demo cratic allegiance. The -Southern Tenant Farmers- Union which seeks to unite white and black In a union of the agrarian workers in the cotton and tobacco fields is nobody's child. Sharecroppers who songht an Interview -with Sen ator Robinson at the Democratic convention had a hard time of it A request for an Interview 'for a delegation with . the President, when he was last in Arkansas, re ceived no response. Southern Ne groes have no votes, and are po litically worthless, v;--- ' " ; .. ? , But In the North, the situation Is different. Here the Negro vote, which has traditionally been Re publican, partly because of mm. ortes of the Clvil War, but alsy oecause tne Republicans paid more for It; has gone largely Dem ocratic because the Democrats are able, for the first time to compete not with cash at the polls bat with relief and W.p.a. inh. same terms as are offered ; to wnues. The relief rolls inn. ed with Negroes, a fact which has been the basis of much? caustic comment by those who are fond of explaining that tha rohttva preponderance of Negroes proves that they are congenitally laxy, unthrifty and quickest to let the state care for them. : The Interpretation A Ma Ik Kml groes an Injustice, and reveals ig--norance of the facts about Negro employment in the North. Since America's gates have been closed to the immigration of cheap labor from eastern Europe, the great reservoir of 10,000,000 Southern Negroes has been; tapped' by Northern industry whenever ' It needed cheap labor to combat trade unionism or n handle peak production. As in the u agents traveled eastern Eur ope and the Balklns rounding up workers for American mines and mills, with promises of gold to be picked in the streets, so in the last decades, and especially dur ing the war and post-war booms, similar agents drew upon the plantations of the South. They went into rural agricultural areas where Negroes lived on the land or In the villages' closely attached to the land, and where at an ex tremely , low standard of living they, nevertheless, had i of contentment and seenritv. nd enticed them to the North, away i rum me; only occupations for which they had been trains h promises of high wages. in terms of purchasing power the wsges turned, out io.be low, Indeed, except for extraordinary periods. . But hundreds of thous ands of Negroes lefj their homes in , these . years -and emim-ti northward Into Industrial i sec tions. Then when the boom col lapsed they "were ruthlssiv a i. charged to become a. burden upon ortnern communities. ... Where Jobs were available they were giv en to whites unless the Negro would work for far less money. It is these Negroes, among whom the rate of unemployment la higher than in any other group, who hold so important a political position. - - . - The , Negro vote la notoriously venal. How could it be otherwise? Ignorant and illiterate, the vast mass of Negroes are like the lower strata of the early industrial im migrants, and , like them are "bossed" and "delivered In blocs by venal leaders, white and black. Paul Ward, writing la "The Na tion, T says: "Only members of the upper crust are politically free agents. -The rest do not vote. They are voted for whichever ma chine pays the higher price, The parties which so cynically buy this vote and which so reck lessly permit it to possibly deter mine who shall govern the coun try have neither of them done anything to elevate the material or cultural status of the Negro. Conditions for Negroes are rela tively no better North than South. Ignorant, d 1 s e a s e-ridden, they have been discriminated against along all lines and by all classes, including the trades unions who 13ito fcr Queer battle son to 8-13-36 Rogue River Indian war in 1853, ended with truce on the word of General Lane? m S (Concluding from yesterdayrl Col.

Col. Hunter wrote In his hook: , . "V V ' . ''I was resolved to return (to Treka) 'as soon as my mother and sisters reached a place of safety. -We . reached .Corvallis, . . . and there heard that all the In dians in the northwest, except the Nex Perces. had gone on the' war path.

They were organizing com panies in nearly every county In Oregon. ... I bought another horse, a fast animal, and, return ing home with It. my mother, well knowing what was going on, met me at the door, and, handing-me my .gun and pistol, said: Go, George; if I were a man I would go with you. i . In company with .some other young men of the neighborhood, I went and enlisted . in Capt. Munson's Com pany, Benton County Volunteers.

(Mark A. Chinn and Ambrose N. Armstrong.) . , Late in the fall of 1855 we started for the front. - Col. Hunter goes on to tell of the participation of his company in the so-called Yakima Indian war, which was really a struggle of all the red tribes of Washington and Oregon east of the Cascades. with the " exception" only of the lower Nes Pereea. CoL Hunter's outfit was In tha battle that re salted in the death of Chief Peo- peomoxmox of the Walla Walla Cayusea who was killed, while attempting to escape, by members of the company front the Salem district, i That was called the bat tie of Walla Walla, lasting four nays. , - ; .. CoL Hunter had told of the coming of Crosbie. a brilliant and well educated lawyer, to Callfor nla, about 1851. On the 4th of July, 1853, the miners ot the Humbug camp felt patriotic and had the , urge to celebrate their nation's natal day. They provided Crosbie with a spanking new woolen shirt, tied a big Ted handkerchief around his neck, put him onto an extempor ized platform, and he delivered such a fine oration that his fame thereabouts was thereby made as a lawyer. CoL Hunter did not tell in his book what became of Crosbie af ter his heroic participation in the 1858 Rogue River Indian war. and the writer finds bo mention oi rum in Historical records. Is there a reader , who has in formation? L. B. Monson, captain of Com pany I, was wounded in the four day battle of Walla Walla. That was on the first day of the battle. Dec. 7, 1856. On the same day, same battle. Capt. Chas. Bennett of the Salem company was killed. Geofge Hunter4 (CoL Hunter) was Ntt. 29 on the muster rolls of Captain Monson'a company. " . Some readers will recall that fear their - power to undercut wages. The North, which, "liber ated" them, freed them to 'starve. The whole sharecropping system of the South, which has now branched 'out to include poor whites, together with blacks, is the Dost-bellum answer of a de feated nation to an intolerable and seemingly insoluble situation created by the War Between the States and its aftermath. In New York City the only jobs open to Negroes are domestic service and the heaviest and most unpleasant forms of menial labor. Nowhere will you find Negro chambermaids or waiters in good hotels. And jammed Into the restricted area ot Harlem they have the highest rate of unemployment and tuber culosis, and pay the highest rela tive, rents and prices for food, of any people in the metropolis. And what, is trite of New York is true of every city In the country with a large Negro population. -. " r - 'There has never been a nation al, regional, state or local pro gram for dealing with the Negro problem. There has been no long range planning, no statesmanship. In neither North nor South has the Negro really become a citizen. He is a social and economic out cast. What little has been 'done for him has been the work of -Individual philanthropists, tike the late Julius Rosen wa Id, of a few not always realistic humanitar ians, ond of the remnants of Im poverished ante-bellum land-owning- families -with some sense of noblesse oblige. The left radicals promise him social and economic equality, and therewith it Is to be feared, prepare the way for an eventual pogrom. . But the Negro is a voter, who can be bought. It ip perhaps well for a itlind society that he is so easy going, so restricted In his temptations , to violence, and so difficult to organize. Otherwise he might . wake up one day to a recognition of just how he is be ing used. : .;, (Copyright. 1936. New York Tribune, Inc.) v .

FEW OTHER things are more annoying - than the constant con sciousness of some physical defect or disability. Yet, anxiety of this sort is usually quite unnecessary. Some simple remedy, or perhaps a trifling operation, will restore nor mal activity and strength. ; Thousands of persons who have had ruptures have avoided medical care because they feared the knife. They should know that neglect Is far more dangerous than an oper ation. -In the hands of a compe tent surgeon the operation is a simple one and need cause no anx iety. . A rupture, or -hernia, as It is medically called, is due to a mus cular weakness of a certain 'part - of the body. The abdominal wall is most often affected . but the trouble may be In the groin. The intestine or gut protrudes through the broken tissues. The weakness may be present at birth. When this occurs the rup ture Is spoken of as a "congenital hernia'. In most instances it is ac quired, perhaps following a severe blow, fail, strain or sudden ex ertion. Operation Advised As X have said, neglect of a her ola is dangerous, because of the possibility of certain complications. For example, a hernia may become strangulated. The hernial sac be comes twisted, the knuckle of in testine within It is squeezed, and the pressure shuts off the circula tion. This leads to severe pain which can only be relieved by im mediate operation. Do not be misled by the belief that hernia can be cured by the wearing of a truss or other me chanical appliances. This procedure should only be resorted to for eld erly individuals who. for various reasons, cannot be operated on. It affords temporary relief, but never cures. - Recently a new method of treat ment has been recommended. I refer to the so-called "injection treatment". In this treatment an irritating substance is injected into the rupture, setting up a localized inflammation with gradual oblit eration of the- sac . The type of treatment must be determined by your doctor. ' '' If you have rupture or suspect you may have, talk frankly with your physician about It. The chances are your fears are un founded. ' But don't be foolish enough to spend hoars and sleep less nights worrying about it This advice Is equally good for other troubles, too. Share your fears with the doctor.

"GLITTERING GIRL" SYNOPSIS Having struck oiL the quaint lake Tysons leave their Texas home to introduce ' their lovely daughter, Vernon (called "Haggle" back home), .to Nw York seciery with the aid of their socially promi nent (though impoverished) cous ins, the RusbJngtoas. Sadie Tyson hopes for brilliant match for her daughter, but Vernon's thoughts are with Terry Shannon, a yoong engineer she met on the train. Nan Rushington Vernon's 18-year-old, ultra-modern cousin hopes to bet ter her own financial status by be ing nice to the Tysons. Nan' be moans the loss of her father's for tune which prevents her from financing the divorce of her latest crush, "Sugar SarraU. Had her mother been alive Nan, in all prob ability, would not have led such a giddy life. Her father was too taken up with his business worries te bother with Nan's escapades, al though he disapproved of her gay career. Nan takes Vemoa to have her hair hennaed and a complete beauty treatment. Vernon emerges a vision of loveliness. "You've got to glitter! If you don't register at the start you're finished before you've begun 1 stressed Nan. And gitter Vernon certainly did!! CHAPTER VII They were passing a large and elegant store on the Avenue, and Nan suddenly halted her cousin with an ecstatic squeak. ' - "That gorgeous pancake hat the one In hunter's rreen. with the feather I It was Just mods for you with your brand-new shads of hair I Let's go right in and get it, Vernon darling I" Bu " "Come on.

The hat .was brought from the .window. It was marked $30. Vernon tried it on. She was a little nervous about the price. But when the French milliner placed it on her head at a fetching angle, it was terribly becoming to her. When they were seated in a taxi, and Nan had given the driver an address in the East Fifties, Vernon could see herself reflected in a strip ef mirror, enchantingly pretty with her new shade of hair whose ten drils curled around the brim of the tiny modish hat.-. ., ; "" .: i . Several taxis and private cars were lined up before the grilled en trance ef the Fixzly Club. Elegantly dressed girls . and smart-looking men were entering Its portals one by one, or two by two, cautiously admitted. A tiny observation, win dow was set in the door from which a pair of keen eyes scouted the cus tomers before they were permitted to enter. But Nan and Vernon didn't have to wait. They were admitted imme diately. "Hello. Mac, old scout! How's trade?" Nan winked at the doorman impudently. - ' The little foyer was so -dimly lit that for a moment Vernon could see nothing. Nan, however, - was throwing greetings right and left into the in triguing gloom. Gradually the fig ures of very smartly attiredyeun women shaped themselves. "They're waiting for tables, or for men. Place full up as usual whispered Nan importantly. . Shs knew her way about. She piloted her cousin through heavy wing doors into the quaintest little barroom.
