Page Two THE EUGENE REGISTER. GUARD BAPTIST CHURCH TO C3SERVE EIGHTIETH BIRTHDAY DAI JULY7 The eightieth anniversary of the orsanlzation of the First Bap tist church of Eugene Is to be celebrated on Friday, July 1, Plans are now being made for a birth day dinner with a huge birthday cake decorated with 80 candles. If one should visit thf old home of Mrs. Margaret Harlow Pengra about two miles northeast of Eu gene, he may notice a heap of crumbling stones In the midst of a field. To the casual observer these will mean little, but to the pioneer Baptists these stones stand as a monument for they mark the spot where the first Baptist altar In this part of Oregon was built. The altar was the hearthstone of Mahlon H. Harlow, where. July I, 18R2. Elders Vincent Snell- Ing and William Sperry exiled a council for the purpose of form. Ing a Baptist church. Seven prospective members showed their colors by presenting their letters and thus became charter members. They were Mahlon H. Harlow, rrancn B. Harlow, Sarah Tandy, William S. Tandy. Robert R. Tan dy, Sarah H. Benson, and Joseph Meadnr. All were related bJt one. History tells that Rev. Vincent Bnelllng was a pioneer of 1844 and was the first resident Bap tist preacher In Oregon. Mrs. J. M. Alnutt, a grand daughter of their early minister. Is now re siding In Eugene and will have a part In the anniversary service. A program Is being prepared. A number of former pastors are expected to return and to speak at the dinner. The committee In charge In cludes Dr. Mary Fowler Thompson, mrs. j. j. naurman, Mrs. Cal Toung.

It was learned from highly author! tative sources in the capital today, that Mr. Hoover has no Idea that the United Htates should act alone upon the principle, he Dronoaed. hur would do so only if the other major powers Biiuiiiu nrrrpi mem.

Mr. Hoover feels personally thst the United States, under the proposed siaanes in nrms. would be more se cure in defense then It is today, aince the power of attack of all nations would be reduced. It was enuncisted with s-reat em. phssls in the capitsl todsy tbst al- mougn 1'resident Hoover's proposals for armament reduction hav been discussed ait Geneva for aome time, they have not been mentioned in con nection with war debt reductlona. Here's Heovar's View It WSS Stated On the hivheat aula. ority that no such suggestions have been made by the United States in order to secure arms slashes. Mr. Hoover is known to feel personally mm aucn a propossi war deDt re duction contingent upon armament re duction would be offensive to the uignny oi r.uropean nations. President Hoover's suggestion to dsy goes further than the original American nine-point program submit ted at ueneva on r en. V bv Ambas sador Hugh S. Gibson, acting head of the American delegation. The Hoover plan embracea addi tional cuts in nsval armaments in the bsttiesbip and cruiser classes and is a radical modification of the pro gram submitted by Gibson. The lat ter advocated the abolition of aub msrines, while the Hoover proposal permits the retention of a small sub marine tonnage, probably a concession to ranee. Gibson particularly stressed the necessity for the reduction of offen sive arms, that is. treat mohIL and tanks suitable for attack upon a foreign power rather than defense. This form of armament has been par ticularly discussed hv tl, ATn.-;,n delegatea at Geneva as the cause of ; ivsr oi attack trora outside which hss prevented Europesn nations from agreeing to any reduction. umson and his sssoclstes hsve pro POSed limltstions in varlnna eala.ir. ivs in a very general way. Budaat Plan Ruaasatail Tn addition thev favored Ik- n.ln. chile of busetarv limitation .n,l hAUA auuiiionsi points: 1. the American government advocates consideration of the draft convention as containing tlie outlines for a convenient basis for discussion, while expressing its entire willingness to give full consideration to any supplement ary proposals calculated to ad vance the end we all seek. 2. Ws suggest the possibility of prolonging the existing naval agreements concluded at Wash ington and IiOndon. snd we sdvo cute completing the loiter as soon ss possible by the adherenco of I ranee snd Italy. 8. We advocate proportional reduction from the figures lsid down in the Washington and Lon don agreementa on naval ton ","',' non Parties to tlie Washington agreement hare entered this frsmework. 4. We advocate, as we long have done, the total abolition of aubmnrines. IS. We will join In formulating the most effective measures to protect civillnn population sgsinst aerial bombing. f- We advocate the total abo lition of lethal gasses and bac teriological warfare. 7. We advocate, as I have al ready ststed. the computstion of the number of armed forces on the basis of the effectives neces snry for the msintensnce of in terns! order plus some suitable contingent for defense. The former are obviously impossible of reduction: the letter is a ques tion of relativity. 8. We sgree In advocating spe risl restrictions for tsnks and heavy mobile guns; in othfr wiirda. for those srms of a pe culinriv offensive character. t. We are prepared to consider a limitation of expenditure on ms terisl ss a complementary method of direct limitation, feeling thst it may prove useful to prevent a qualilotive race, if and when nunntitnive limitation haa been effected.

Her marriage to Hickford has been me nslies. and she faces a double-edged dilemma overpowering love calling, while duty an dpity demands that she remain true to her husband. Paul I.ukas plays the part of Biek- ford's loyal friend who cannot sup press his love for Tallulah. Bickford is the husband, a virile, powerful man shorn of his capacity by blindness.
