FOR CHECK EXPULIKED MADE Br SUPREME Eugene theatregoers will have their last opportunity Tuesday evening to see "Love la a Rack et," tne insi- jo SALEM, Ore., June 21. U. Picketing can be conducted under the Oregon law only when us pri mary object Is to benefit the con blnatlon or organization by which the picketing Is conducted, the state supreme court ruled today In holding that picketing actlvl ties of the Portlnnd Moving Pic ture Operators' Protective union and allied trade unions against the Moreland, Venetian and fira. nada theatres In Portland In 1929 were Illegal. The opinion, written by Justice Rand reversed the decree of Judge J. W. Knowles who had denied an Injunction to the thea- tre corporation restraining the unions from picketing the three . show bouses because of a dispute over the employment of union machine operators. "The primary object and pur pose of this picketing was not to benefit the union but to Injure the business of the plaintiffs." the opinion held. "A combination formed for purpose of Injuring the business of another Is In law ma licious and renders anything done In furtherance thereof unlawful, even If the thing done Itself law ful. "There was only one union em ploye at each theatre and he had either been discharged or had quit of his own accord before the picketing began. In the absence of cod tract for a specified term of employment, plaintiffs had a right to discharge the union oper ators and the operators likewise had a right to quit their services whenever they pleased. Every employer has the right to dis charge a union man and employ a non-union man' and where but one man Is employed and he a union man no lawful right to strike In such a case could arise and If It was attempted there could be no legal Justification for It for no one's right could be prejudiced.

Good craft, I'd say, nnd ready for the air." Itetich bnck In the cubbyhole of memory and see if you can find some thing about Lieut 8. Erik H. Kelson nnd Lowell H. Smith. No? Well, they were the first to make a round-the-world fliffht in airplanes. rour army plnnes started from Se attle in 11)24, two fiuiHhed. Smith and Nelson were In ttiem. A little crayer, his bald spot Isrcer, bis smile as brond, Kelson Is now sales manager for an aircraft company in Seattle, Wash. He is as enthusiastic about flying now as he wan when he set the record. In 311-0 he resigned from the army to take n job with the aircraft company. He hag a Dis tinguished Flying Cross. Looking abend, he believes the best class of passengers will travel in planes, almost exclusively. Bnck in 11)28 be flew the length of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado nnd obtnined the first fin aerial photographs of that awe-Inspiring scene. He still flies, whenever he can, nnd you could see him almost any day taking off in a big plane, piloting ft with as much nonchalance as you would drive a car. His pal, Smith, is still connected with aviation, I In is a captain in the Army Air Corps, stationed nt Bristol, J'a., where he is an inspector of aircraft for the government. He is out of the limelight completely, nnd last summer when ho returned to sny tlmt he thought the Lindberghs would bo successful on their flight to the Orient, many had to think twice to recall the name. Smith nnd Xelsoni were successful in the world flight Iwenusc they plan ned wisely nnd fought their way out of predicaments with rare judgment. That April morning when the four army plnnes scooted off tiie runways at Seattle, Major F. L. Martin whs flight commander. His plane went down in Alaska and Smith was put in charge of the three remaiuing ships, Tbey hopped over the northern Pa cific, battling fog and bad weather. Nenr bleak islands they landed their pontooned planes, refueled, continued onward. They reached Tokio. There were irrltnting delays, for airplanes were not so relinble then. But they didn't give up. They flew on over Asin to Europe nnd on to London, stopping frequently. They reached London. On the hazardous Atlantic flight Lt. Leigh Wade's plane, "Boston'1 went down but nobody was killed. All were saved. Smith flew on in the "Chicago"; Nelson flew on in the "New Orleans." The northern Atlan tic fogs nnd rnin and winds couldn't block them. Landing nt Iceland, Greenland, Labrador and Nova Scotia, they finally reached America. Lt. Wade, in another plane, joined them in the flight on to the starting point. They had circumnavigated the globe in 175 days. But how many now would remember them? lTnlike the elephant, the pub lic soon forgets. One of the business men planning for the future of aviation was the United States' greatest aoo during the World War. You'll probably re member his name or will you?

Morn vs members of the county dog control board, a case in which Morris, dis charged dot; law enforcement officer, seeks to set money he alleges is due on n broken contract, was filed in circuit court here Tuesday.

(P The body of Fire Chief Itaoul (inuthier. who lost his life in the explosion and fire of the oil tanker Cymbeline last Friday, was recovered today. Twenty-seven lost their lives in explosion. With the recovery of the fire chief's body all hut one of the mtsnin were accounted for. For every check that a Eugene citizen wrote Tuesday' lie paid an additional two cents to the collector of Internal revenue as the date for the new taxes levied under the recently adopted intern al revenue hill became effective July 21. Many Items of everyd.iv use are subject to tax under this new law. but the two-cent tax on every check probably hits most persons. Under the action of the law, as explained bv O. A. Houglum. presi dent of the Kucene Clearing Houne association, the two-cent tax will he collected for eich check, the hank entering the amount omli'st the account of the drawer of the check and deducting It from his balance at the end of each day's banklnc period. No stamp Is in volved In the process, the checks not having to be stamped to In dicate the tax since the banks do this as the checks are put through their systems. The tax on all checks will be figured each dny as that day's checks are posted by the hank bookkeepers each evening, thus avoiding confusion at the end of each month. The hanks must send In their collections for the tax to the collector of internal revenue each month nnd each time a customer receives a state ment there will he a column show ing the tax collected so that he mnv figure bis balance. Mr. Houglum estimates that Eu gene will contribute roughly $2. 000 monthly to the revenue de partment as a result of this tax on checks. It is also expected that thore will be somewhat, less check writing, persons being in clined to watch their expenditures so as to prevent writing more checks than necessary. If a customer of a bank wishes to get money to pay for goods without being forced to pay the two-cent check tnx. he may go to the banks and receive counter receipts with which he may draw against his account. These re celnts must be presented in person and are not negotiable and here- fore not subject to tnx. ! Checks exempt from the ' tax j are those Issued by the United ! States, states or any municipal j subdivisions thereof which ln-' eludes county, cities and school district's, according to Mr. Houg lum. He explained that checks against funds created by taxation generally are exempt from the tax. , low The new tax bill must have taxed congress' energy.
