' J. C. Oliver, a man", with 30
y e a r s of practical epzerience
working in China as a YMCA
secretary, spoke Informally to a
public ferum Thursday night at
the Y concluding a day of talks
and interviews in Salem. Oliver
was jn;Salem after attending an
area council at Seabeck. Wash.
Oliver praised the perseverance
of the Chinese people in their
xignt against the Japanese. He re
lated personal experiences illui-
traung tiieir "never say die" at
titude in withstanding the Jap at
tacks. The Japanese are makin abso
lutely no -progress in efforts to
convert the Chinese to the man
nerisms of the Nipponese. Oliver
emphasized that the Japanese
have little faculty for getting
along with other nationals.
The speaker left Japan on the
Gripsholm last September after
a period in the internment camp.
"Under the circumstances, I was
glad to leave China," he said, lat
er adding that he was anxious to
return to Free ; China- as soon
as possible. .
Bus Transport
For Cannery
Workers Due
Bus transportation direct to the
doors of Salem canneries for an
early morning shift to begin early
next week appeared a probability
following a meeting Thursday at
which details of the service were
mapped out by Vernon Leek, Ore
gon Motor Stages manager here.
First of the canneries to re
quire such service, it is believed.
will be California Packing cor
poration's plant and Paulus Bros.,
where round-the-clock operations
will be in effect! early in August
Persons working on the shift
which will start' at 6 a. m. will
be able to take one of three espe
cially - arranged buses to a cent
ral transfer point, probably at
Chemeketa and Summer streets at
a point away from any residences
so that there will be no disturbing
noise. Buses from that point will
run to whatever canneries may be
operating early shifts, if the plan
is finally adopted.

HELENA, Mont, July 27 -()-Senator
Burton K. Wheeler (D

answer to the Question of neace

federation of European states, a
sort of United States of Europe."

"buttressed by experience both in
the United States and Europe."
He described such a federation
as "practical and workable for

From a ' handful of men and

around the little porch at the Sa
lem Mexican I farm 1 abor ' camp
grew to morft- than a hundred in
a few minutes as the quartet of
dark-haired lasses from the Mel-

cordions in rhythm and smiled. '
The occasion was a "pro

pices of the American Association

: ' All of the music was apparent

Rally
For Leaders
BUENOS, AIRES, July 27
A . harmless noise bomb exploded
in front of the newspaper La Nac
ion buiding tonight during an
otherwise- orderly demonstration
in favor of the government's for
eign policy by several thousand
persons: who first assembled . in
front of the United States embassy.
No one was hurt by the explos
ion although concussion shattered
a shop window.
The demonstration, sponsored by
numerous organizations, came 24
hour : after a! radio address in
which Foreign j Minister Gen. Or
lando Peluffo, outlining the coun
try's foreign policy, asserted that
Argentina was resolved to con
tinue her present course, a course
officially criticized by the United
States as pro-Axis.
Carrying many banners the
crowd first assembled in front of
the US embassy where, as a pre
caution, women employes had been
sent home early. The crowd, how
ever, was orderly. From the em
bassy it paraded through the prin
cipal shopping streetto the foreign
ministry. . j f.
' The crowd shouted nationalist
slogans such as "Argentines yes.
Yankees no,"! "Sovereignty or
Death," and rPeluffo Yes, Hull
(pronounced Hool) No."
