that Charles L. McNary was once

The blaze that fanned out Mon

4,000.000 board feet of down tim

escaped last year's great confla
gration was threatened.
Hillsboro, Cornelius and Forest

unsuccessful attempt to save the
H. Parry sawmill at North Plains
in Washington county. The mill
was destroyed at a loss of be
tween $10,000 apd $12,000 and
4 0,000 feet of cut lumber. -
Other blazes, none, of major

Former Gets Committee
I Publisher's Appointment Because of Quoted
j Advocacy of Participation in Europe
I WASHINGTON, July 2. (AP)i The senate military
committee approved the nomination of Henry, L. Stimson,
republican as secretary, of war today, after two hours of
questioninfir which.prdduced statements that the nominee op
posediSendinflf I troops beyond American borders unless the
protection of this country should make such, action necessary.
At the same time, the ..senate
naval committee fired "question
after question at Col. Frank
Knox, republican nominee for sec
retary of the navy; received . a
staunch j denial that he ever had
urged, giving military support to
the allies, and deferred action, on
the nomination until tomorrow.
Both Knox, ; the republican par
tyfs 138 vice presidential nom
inee, and Stimson, secretary of
state in the Hoover cabinet, told
the committees that no anti-third
term pledge by President Roose
velt was Involved in the negotia
tions , leading to their; appoint
ments., i
The Stimson appointment was
approved 14 to 8. and adminis
tration factions Within the naval
committee are of the opinion that
when the Knox nomination comes
to a vote tomorrow sot more than
five rotes will be east against
confirmation. : j
The naval committee, making
rapid progress, had expected to
reach a vote on the Knox nomin
ation today. But late In the day.
Senator Holt (D-WVa) brought
up a newspaper column by Helen
Easary, which on June 22 quoted
Knox as having said: "We should
go into Europe at once, not only
with cash and credit and supplies,
but with men' j
! Knox denied having made such
statement, but Holt insisted
that Miss Easary be called, and
the committee recessed until . to
morrow, planning to hear her
then. i
At another point, Chairman
Walsh (D-Mass) asked Knox if
he had ever publicly or privately
purged, giving January auppert to
the allies.' ; .-V"- -
"Never, was the crisp reply,
Knox I attributed his appoint
ment to the fact that he and Pres
ident Roosevelt held similar views
on American policy with regard to
the situation abroad. The allies,
he insisted, should be given "ev
ery aid jihort of war." Explaining
he saidi this meant giving Eng
land all the supplies she is able to
buy except "our organized army
and navy."

George and Queen 'Elizabeth have
firmly rejected suggestions from
influential quarters that Princess
Elizabeth, 14, heiress presumptive
to- the throne, and her sister Prini
cess Margaret Rose be sent out of
the country to one of the domin

Repeated efforts to , persuade
the royal pair to send the two
princesses to a safer land have ret
celred this answer in effect: .
"We all face a common peril.
Thousands of parents in. this
country are compelled to keep
their children at home. We would
prefei to share whatever family
perils there may be with parents
of this eountry." j
The princesses are not seen in
public these days. Palace sources
said they are "somewhere in the
