North Santiam
Stage Service
To Be Started
Daily Trips , to Bend and
Return Are Planned
by Ham man Line
Saturday to See Opening
of New Line; Pioneer -Family
in Charge
The first passenger bus service
to eastern Oregon vja the North
Santiam highway Will start to
morrow, Floyd Hamman, member
of the family which has long op
erated the Salenx-Breitenbnsh line,
announced here last night.
Daily stage service, one trip
i each way, will be given. Ham
man said. The Salem-Breitenbush
bus will connect .at Detroit with
a second stage which will make
1 the daily run from Bend to De-
troit and return.
In being fjrst to introduce bus
service across the North Santiam
. shortcut, low altitude route to
central Oregon, Floyd and" Ed
ward Hamman will be carrying
on a family tradition.
It was the late Joseph Hamman
who pioneered in Santiam trans
portation service 24 years ago
when he started a horse-drawn
stage coach line.
The Salem-Bend trip over the
North Santiam highway is one of
the most scenic routes in the
northwest, Floyd Hamman declar
ed. Accompanied by Don Goode
of y Stayton, he drove over the
highway early this week and
found it in "surprisingly fine con
dition" with only three miles of
road still quite rough. The last
section, near the junction with
the South Santiam highway, Is
sow nnder contract for reinforce
ment of a newly-constructed
grade and a new bridge Is-also to
be built in the same section.
The Salem bus, operated by
Floyd Hamman, will leave the
stage terminal here daily at 10
a.m., meet the Bend bus at De
troit and continue on to Breiten
bush, arriving at the springs re-
sort at 1:10 p.m. Leaving Breit
enbush at 2:20, it will pick np
passengers from Bend at Detroit
and arrive back in Salem at 5: SO
p.m. The Bend bus, driven by Ed
Hamman, will leave that city for
Detroit daily at 1 1 : 1 5 a.m. and
return there at 4:35 p.m.
Floyd Hamman said he antici
pated ample patronage for the
sew service. Ed Hamman, he said,
kas been driving stages lor 15
years and has never had an acci
dent. : -

8000 Have Stiff Neck as
Result of Sky-Gazing ;
Thrills Numerous
A good many necks belonging
to Salem residets were stiff and
sore this morning as an aftermath
of the 1937 Oregon Air Tour yes
terday when 8000 persons at the
airport and additional thousands
over the countryside followed the
daring mile-high antics of stunt
fliers who ran the gamut of aer
ial thrills.
The sky circus, run off against
a cloudless blue sky In which the
sun was setting, began upon the
ground, when hundreds inspected
the ships lined up at the airport
Governor Charles H. Martin spoke
m welcoming the fliers to Salem,
and V. E. Kuhn, mayor of :Salem,
and W. E. Gosslin also delivered
short talks. I
To start the show, George Cook
gave the large throng a thrill with
his long-delayed parachute open
ing after he had left a plane at
the 8000-foot level. Two Salem
youngsters, Warren Gram and
Billy Thompson got an I added
thrill when they recovered ICook's
parachute and returned It to him.
Women Stunters s

Miss Dorothy Barden made a
parachute leap In which her path
was etched against the blue sky
with a trail of flour.

and a half a mile wide, then zoom

conditions, so high above the
earth that the tiny biplane could

smoke trail, was done with pre
cision. Miss King ended her part
of the show by picking up a flag
with a wing while skimming the
grass of the airport.
Al Lary, "drunken cowboy ,
was the cause of much laughter
as he obtained a plane after be
ing "arrested" several times, and
took off on a stunt flight to show

HONOLULU. July 8-UP)-
Searching planes from the battle
ship Colorado, seeking trace of
Amelia Ear hart in the vast equa
torial Pacific, returned without
clues this evening after their
second day of flight over the
area where she vanished.
Today's search by the trio of
planes covered some of the ocean
previously surveyed by the coast
guard cutter Itasca and brought
the total area searched to an esti
mated 136,000 square miles.
The planes, spreading out to
cover as much territory as pos
sible, flew southward more than
250 miles from bleak Howland
Island to scan the McKean island
area below the equator.
Then they circled over the
charter position of Winslow reef,
southeast of Howland.

move to arbitrate differences be

of the Alcoa plant of the Alum
inum Co. of America, where two
men -were killed and 28 wounded
in rioting yesterday, apparently
collapsed tonight.
Gov. Gordon Browning, In re-
fsponse to a request from Fred
Wetmore, president of the Alum
inum Workers' union at Alcoa, an
AFL affiliate, telephoned A. D.
Huddleston, regional manager of
the company, to get his reaction
to appointment ot a board of arbi
tration.
Huddlfston said later that since
the company's wage scale "is
higher in 'relation to Tennessee
living conditions than that paid
workers at the Pittsburgh plant,"
he does "not believe the company
has anything? to arbitrate."
The strikers are asking an in
crease from 46 to 60 cents an
hour, or approximate wage par
ity with the company's workers in
northern plants. The fabricating
plant reopened yesterday after
having been shut down since May
18. The reopening brought a pit
ched battle between strikers and
guards.

the approval today of the senate
labor committee, which recom
mended that the legislation be
passed at this session of congress.
The committee. In rewriting the
measure, deprived a proposed ad
ministrative board of much ot Its
power to fix lajbor standards. The
board, however, still could estab
lish minimum wages up to 40
cents an hour and maximum work
ing hours of 40 a week, or more.
Majority leader Robinson (D
Ark) told newsmen that early
consideration of any of the three
measures was unlikely.
In reporting the labor stand
ards bill, the committee struck
out what members called its most
controversial section. This would
have given the board authority to
fix "fair" wage and hour stand
ards based on the value of the
services Involved.

Litvinpff Says Frontier
to Be Protected;! new s
Protest Is Filed
MOSCOW, July 9.-,PJ-The so
viet government threatened Japan
with open warfare today if Jap
anese troops do not keep out of
Siberia. j
Maxim Litvinoff, soviet commis
sar of foreign affairs, warned the
Japanese ambassador, M a m o r u
Shigemitsu, that Russian troops
along the Siberian-Manchouquoan
border had firm orders "in no
case to allow Japanese-Manchur-ian
troops to cross soviet fron
tiers." !
"All possible means, the for
eign commissar told the Japanese
representative, would be used to
drive out any Japanese or M ri
ch oukuoan troops that set toot on
Russian territory. j
The dire Russian warning was
linked to a strong protest that
Japan had violated the agree
ment to withdraw ner armed for
ces from the disputed Channel is
lands of the Amur river.
a ciasn Detween soviet troops
and JapaneseManchoukuoan bor
der guards last week j created a
serious crisis in far eastern af
fairs. It was settled only by a mu
tual agreement between Japan
and Russia to recall their armies
simultaneously from Sennuf u and
Bolshoi islands.
Accuse Japan of
Failure to Evacuate j
An official government com
munique disclosed Russia had ac
cused Japan of failure to evacu
ate the barren sand pits which
control the channel ot the river
boundary between northeastern
Manchoukuo and Siberia.' . : ,l
The Russian accusation was an
answer to Shigemitsu's warning
that clashes on the border of Si-,
beria and the Japanese-inspired
state of Manchoukuo were too
numerous. j

emphatically rejected jthe Japan
