Cressman, Dr, Harold Crosland, Dr. Waldo Schu macher, Dr. Dan Clark, Dr. Robert Seashore, and Dr. Wayne L. Morse. Thii conference Is held under the auspices of the Social Science Re search council of America and has elected for Its central theme for this year the subject, "How Far Are So del Forces Controllable?" The main addresses of the confer ence will be given by A. L Kroeber, ojitbropolocist; J. B. Canning, econo mist; J. W. Thompson, historian; W B. Munro, political scientist; L. M Terman, psycholoftist; W. F. Osburn, aocioloeist. After the main addresses, which will be given the first day of the conference, the individual dele gates of the conference will join one of the following round taoies: in' fluencing Criminal Behavior," "Im plementing the Pence Machinery," "Influencing Social Attitude of Propa ganda and Education," "The Tax Sys tem and Economic Mabiiization, "Government by Dictatorship," "Xa tionnlism.'' Dr. L. S. Cressmon of the TJnlver slty of Oregon will serve as chairman of a committee on social statistics. This committee Is studying plans for the development of a uniform system for the recording of social statistics. It is retognixed by research workers in the field of sociology or crime that accurate research investigation will be handicapped until dnta can be gath ered and recorded which will permit of comparison. i In addition to the meeting of the Social Science conference there will also be held at the same time- a meeting of the Pacific Coast regional committee of the social science re search council. Dean Wayne L. Morse of the school of law repre sents the University of Oregon on this committee, and Is chairman of one of Its sub-committees on the or ganisation of a Pacific Coast Institute of law and the administration of justice. Two years ago Dean Morse proposed a plan for the establishment of such an institute and nt the meet ing of the Pacific Coast regional com mittee last March his plan was adopted as one of the projects' of the social science council. Further, the committee decided to hold the first institute at Eugene, Oregon during the summer of 1134, in connection with the University of Oregon law school summer session. It is the plan of the commitee to hold an Institute each year on the campus of one of the universities on the Pacific coast. Dean Morse's plan calls for an in stitute program consisting of a ser ies of round tables led by outstanding members of the various social sciences and by leaders of the bench and bar. Speaking of the institute Dean Morse stated, "1 have always felt that many of the members of our profession could profit by ntending such nn in stitute and thereby acquainting them selves with some of the most recent finding of the social sciences. It seems to me that such an institute would promote a mutual exchange of points of view and would undoubtedly inter eat many of the leaders of the bar in the contentions and contributions of those disciplines which are closely related to the law." Beauty And The Beast! Margorle Gay, 18 years old,, who turns somersaults on the broad resin- ed haunch of her horse Gypsy, with . . . -X tha Al (i. Barnes circus, chooses for ia.-.- TfcB ing behemoth of Holy Writ who ans- T'arO't.V her nlavmate a mammoth blood-sweat- .... wers to the name of Lotus. The huge f jfi Hippopotamus ups me ecaies at iwo tons. Is 60 years of age and left his native haunts on the Nile river about the time Bryan was first running for president. When not consuming bushels of car. ft-ii iip.iisTfiTfniiyY anisii r t dLJ rots, turnips, heads of cabbage and bushels of other vegetables, Lotus does a submarine act into the bottom of the tank in the huge wagon that transports him. In fact the amphibian beast is as much at home in water as on land. It started by the daily visit of the fair equestrienne to Lotus' cage arm ed with delicacies in the way of honey- coated popcorn and soon a fast bond was struck. Once a day Lotus is given little exercise around the menagerie tent and in the back yard of the circus and Mnrgorie is always on band to accompany Lotus on his vagabond wanderings. When he gives voice the lions nro humiliated and the tigers acknowledge defeat. One of the world's largest traveling zoos will be seen in Eugene on Wed nesday, June 21, when the big show arrives for performances at 2 and 8 p. m. There are cages of lions, tigers, pumas, Ieopnrds, jaguars in addition ; to an endless array of hay-eating I antelopes, tapirs and gnus. The Al G. Barnes circus has always excelled in the excellency of its menagerie and wild animal exhibit. A group of vlaak vnrks are shown this season, trappers spending more than three years in ef fecting their capture. Sunday is fast day in the menagerie tent, and every occupant excepting the elephnnts and hay-eating animals, know when the day arrives. When the week-end feeding hour four o'clock in the afternoon approaches, not one of the animals betrays the feeling of enger anticipation on Sun day which characterizes them all the other six days. They understand in stinctively there will be no meal. The Sunday abstinence is deemed by the trainers an aid to good health, as copying to some extent the habit of beasts in their native haunts, where food is not obtainable every day. There is little sickness in the mena gerie. The animals are studied closely and given assiduous attention if the slightest indisposition is manifested. Dr. Miller Says Business Picks Up Through East Dr. J. M. Miller, local dentist who went to the east coast a month ago, has written back to Eugene friends on his observations and comments made regarding business conditions. Dr. Miller is spending the summer in Boston and other eastern cities while Mrs. Miller and their son, Hugh, who accompanied him cast have gone on to Paris, the fnmily expecting to return here early in the fall. Beginning at Pendleton and Baker. Dr. Miller says he inquired severnl times a dny regarding business condi tions as he progressed eastward. In eastern Oregon little Improvement was reported noticeable. "At Ontario it was thought there wns a recent pickup duo to the thirsty citizens of Idaho just across the line coming aeroBS for Oregon beer," he said. All through Utah a slight improve-' ment wns reported, but until the party reached Omahn, Neb., they hear all complaining of the depression. In Omnhn, folks were sure business showed ft decided improvement the packing plants having put back several thousnnd men, Dr, Miller said. "An official of the Wabash railway said their business had increased. At In dianapolis, where we spent a week, my brother In the -Western Union office said their' business had increased 50 per cent in the last few months and .that this was a barometer of business since few telegrams were sent in hard times. At Columbus, O., they were sure the depression wns over becnuse business wns so improv ed. At Philadelphia I talked with the manager of the S. S. White Dental Manufacturing company located th?re, the Inrgest dental manufacturing firm in tho world. He was s::ro their in creased orders from dental houses all over the country indicated ft return to better business. . "In New York City there was such a mad rush on the sidewalks that I was nfrnid to speak to anyone- lest I be pushed Into the street and trampl ed to death. They looked prosperous. The general eastern tone Ib more opti mistic than the west," Dr. Miller added. T IGHT In a letter to the editors of The Register-Guard, Llewellyn A. Banks asks for a correction on a story rela Uve to the foreclosure proceedings on an orchard he owned near Medford. This was an Associated Press report and it gave $1000 as the cash pad down by Banks to L. F. Belknap in the -transaction. Banks submits the following letter from Belknap to prove that the figure should have been $10,000 instead of $1000 and that his dealings with Bel knap at all times were on a thoroughly honorable basis: MEDFORD, June 13. Mr. T A. Banks. My Dear Mr. Banks: In regard to the statement you send me from the Eugene Register-Guard will sny it is incorrect. Similar article has been in the Mail-Tribune here. I wrote them yesterday asking them to make correction. I never made statement to anyone that I received only $1000. Whenever asked about it I have stated it as it was. that on June 20 I sold the or chard property to you for $27,000, re ceiving at that time a payment of $10,000 and mortgage on the prop erty for $17,000. with interest pay able semi-annually. Later $1000 was paid on mortgage. Last winter you of. fered to turn the property beck to me (if 1 so desired) which I considered fair and honorable owing to financial conditions. Later you did turn it back to me but I found it necessary to fore close on the mortgage. Yours truly, L, F. BELKNAP. (Editor's Note: The editors are ery glnd to make th:s correction for Mr. Banks. The error may have been one of transmission on the tele printer or it may havo been a typo graphical mistake in this office. This paper is alwnys anxious to have the facts correct). PITTSBURGH.
