The exact minute Is when the great special steel trains of the Al G. Barnes and Sells Floto combined circu4umble to a stop In Salem and begin unloading for the season 's first day of . white top amusement. Circus Day! The holiday that makes all the city kin and which brings the rich and poor to sit side by side and "Ah" and MOh and marrel at the wonders and daring that neither age nor time can dim. Circus Day!

Dawn tomorrow will bring to Salem some 26 acres of, tent nec essary to house this colossus amusement enterprise formed by the uniting of these world famouf names of the tented world.. - Features Unique' l Hundreds upon hundreds- o the world's foremost arenic stars and scores of European novelt: acts are part of this year's colo sal program. Features never be fore attempted are made possible because of the uniting of these two giants of the tented world. One of the many hundreds Is the largest group of ferocious jungle beasts ever assembled. Despite the fact these unruly animals refuse to be, .tamed or trained they are made 'to perform. This4 daring feat is accomplish ed by Bert Nelson, the greatest wild- animal'trainer In the world. Mr. Nelson, with only a chair and whip as bis protection steps into the cages and forces the brutes to obey his command. No more stir ring, or thrilling sight has ever been, or erer will, be witnessed. While everything is new with the Al G. Barnes and Sells Floto combined circus for the 1937 sea son, every department has been greatly increased In size. This year sixty master clowns cavort and make merry on the huge hip podrome track. Four hundred horses comprise the horse fair, while the menagerie consists of 800 furred and feathered creatures displayed in electric-lighted cages. . Great Riding Act The greatest riding act ever brought to America, the famous CrisUanl troupe come to this super circus direct from European tri umphs. Composed of four men and their two sisters, this sensational turn features Lucio. the only rid er In the history of the world ac complishing twisting somersaults from horse to horse. In the Eu ropean contingent is also daring, exotic Amerika, In breath-taking balancing feats high in the dome of the tent, on a swinging trap eze. Amerika, without holding , to ropes, or supports, tiptoes about on swinging and whirling bars, utterly the last gasp of daring.

The accident com mission's successful, experience coupled with Improvements made In the unemployment act augor well for this new branch of the social security program, he said. The unemployment compensa tion system now being establish ed is not made to include employ ers of fewer than four persons because of the complications that an approximately five-times in creased number of firms to deal with would bring. But Campbell predicted that "within a very few years we will go to universal cov erage and a greatly reduced num ber of exempted employers.'? Already,, Campbell pointed out, Oregon's unemployment law takes in more employers than required by the federal act and in addition under newly-created amendments permits employers not required to comply to come under its provis ions it they, so desire. He predict ed many farmers would elect to pay the unemployment tax in or der to attract laborers who. other wise would take Jobs under which they would be eligible to receive unemployment benefits. Requirements Clarified Two other Important amend ments stressed by the speaker were those clarifying the terms under which compliance with the unemployment act becomes a re quirement, . wherein the act ap plies to all -employers who have a payroll of 1500 or more during a caienaar quarter and at least four employes on any one day. and de fining jurisdiction in regard to employes in interstate commerce. The contribution plan has also been altered so that an employer wno snows a stabilised emolov ment record may secure a redac tion to an ultimate minimum of one-half of 1 per cent of his pay- rou in tax. rne tax runs to a 4 per cent maximum for employers wnose record goes to the other extreme.

Hen dricks announced last night there was "certain to be action to. stop the muddying of Pringle creek by the Harold Blake gravel pit operations southwest of Sa lem near the municipal airport. To this end he conferred with District Attorney Lyle J. Page, who promised to act' after ad in vestigation had been made. , Hendricks said he believed the state game commission would look Into the situation soon. Inquiry at - the gravel, plant brought the answer from an of fice employe that nothing would be done until Mr. Blake returned to the city. Although it was rep resented that water from a well was being used to wash the grav el, it was learned that the "well" apparently was the gravel pond, into and out of which flows a small creek that empties Into Pringle creek along the Southern Pacific railroad tracks.

Rose, president of the Bush' school parent-teacher as sociation, declared the situation was a boon because it would keep children from playing in the stream, which he asserted was dangerously contaminated.
