to speak over the radio, before civic
crabs snd churches during .the entire
week regarding the workings of the
NBA.
- "Various Interpretations have been
given to the letters of NRA," declar
ed Father Leipslg at the Klwania
club, "but reduced to aimple langu
age it means 'For every man a
job. Linked with the thought of
giving the unemployed work we
must bear In mind that the Job
must mean a living wane to the men
and women employed."
Cost Held Justified
Father Leipzig maintained that
America is at the crossroads of a
great economic crisis. The NRA
dose not necessarily mean that it
will be a panacea for all our Ills,
but nevertheless it will mean the
greatest good for the majority, 1
The speaker insisted that while
there may be criticism In certain
quarters over the expenditures of
money yet If we are willing to
apend billions In time of war, we
have a perfect right to spend billions
to preserve pence in times of peace.
George H. McMorran, general of
the NRA campaign, closed the Kl

each week of the momentous changes
taking place in our American life.
There is also the need of a vehicle for

The departure of Moley from offi
cial service follows an interesting aer
ies of events. Moley was the lone man
who accompanied Roosevelt to the
White House last winter when Presi
dent Hoover asked for a conference
on war debts.
When Mr. Roosevelt took office, he
was made assistant secretary of state.
He consulted frequently at the White
House. The London economic confer
ence came along. Secretary Hull
headed the American delegation. Mo
ley went over as a special messenger
for the president. Something hap
pened over there that brought the dif
ferences of opinion between Hull and
Moley to a climax.
The president, of course, stood by
his secretary of state. Upon his re.
turn Moley was transferred to a ape.
cial assignment to study kidnaping and
racketeering. He has been on that
study for three weeks and separated
from the atate department.
A week-end outbreak of bandjtry
was giving police officers a busy day
Monday seeking the men responsible
for s Eugene service station robbery,
an attempt to rob the Heilig theater
and the stealing of a safe belonging
to J. C. Ponsler of Florence.
Eugene police were investigating
the service station and theater jobs
while deputy sheriffs and state police
were probing the Florence safe theft.
The General petroleum station at
Seventeenth and Willamette waa en
tered and $30.37 obtained aometime
Saturday night. An attempted rob
bery of the Heilig theater was frus
trated by the theater caretaker after
he had fired two shots at an intruder.
At the service station, entry was
gained by sawing off a -padlock on the
rear door. Officera believe someone
familiar with the station routine was
responsible for the job as the. money
was kept in a unique hiding place.
The loot, consisting of checks and
caah, was contained in a sack which
was lowered in a tank of oil and
fastened to the lid with a string.
The robbery of the theater waa at
tempted at 5:15. Sunday morning.
Howard Johnson, who Bleeps in the
basement, heard a noise and went to
investigate. As he climbed the stairs
leading to the balcony, the intruder
met him with n blow in the mouth
which knocked him down the steps,
Johnson fired two shots at the burg
lar who ran, across the balcony and
escaped through the door on the weat
side of the theater.
The safe of the theater contained
Saturday's receipts, police said.
A safe weighing several hundred
pounds was stolen from the office of
J. C. Ponsler, automobile dealer at
Florence, some time Sunday night
and hauled away on a truck. A deputy
sheriff and a state police officer left
here Monday morning for the coast
city to make an Investigation.
Mr. Ponsler aaid that the thieves
broke the lock of the door of his of
fice and lifted the safe bodily into a
truck which they backed up to the
door. Four or five men must have
been implicated, he said, as it would
seem imnossiblo for a lesser number
'to have lifted it The safe contained
about $80 in cash, all of Mr. Pons
ler's books and accounts and other
valuable papers.
It la believed by the officers that
the thieves drove the track to some
out of the way place and blew the
safe open with dynamite. A atrange
truck waa seen in -Florence earlier
Sunday night
Elmer Payne reported the theft
of his car while it was parked near
the Osburn apartments sometime be
tween 6:30 and 10:15 o'clock Satur
day night. . '

The renovated dress which Is part
of Elizabeth'a year's work is a com
bination of two dresses. She took the
green blouse from one, reversed It and
sewea several square pinions aowa
the back, and put it on the skirt of a
black silk dress, the blouse of which
had worn out. The cuffa of the black
silk and lace jacket she lined with
green matching the blouse. The reno
rated dress cost exactly 15 cents.
which covered thread and .fasteners.
The two-piece ' child's outfit is of
figured green soisette, with narrow
plests down the middle snd a green
organdie collar which ties on one
side. Bloomers go with the dress.
This outfit was made for -10 cents.
Eliznbetb comes by sewing natur
ally, for her mother, Mrs. Del Hoi-
comb, long baa made the clothea for
herself and her two younger sisters,
Jesnne, 12, and Ann. T. Mra. Hoi
comb even makes coats for her chil
dren. She is leader of the Happy
Homemakers Four-H club at the
Pleasant Hill high school, which this
psst year undertook both homemak-
lng and sewing proejets. The club
captured four places in the sewing
divisions ot the fair: Elizabeth win
ning first place, Myrna Laird winning
second place with her cotton school
dress, while Cleona Aubrey placed in
division two with a cotton school
dress and Ava Sanders with an in
formal party dress.
Elizabeth always has liked sewing,
and makes most of her own clothes.
But she Is accomplished in the kitchen
also, as is shown by . the fact that
she won first prize In cooking division
three, and second prize in division
two at the Four-H fair last week.
For these she entered . two jars'' of
fruit, two jars of vegetables, one
each of meat jelly, and pickles. It
was no wonder that she won prizes
with them, for they were beautiful
just to look at
And hi the homemaking division
Elizabeth carried off still sno'ther
prize the second. For this project
she was required to iron a garment
and a flat piece, and she chose a
boy's sblrt and a towel. In addition
she had to draw a plan of the kitchen
in her own home, and then a revised
plan showing how it could be re
modeled to make it a more convenient
place to work in.
Athletics is Elisabeth's great in
terest at high ecbool. There ahe
will be a junior next year. She plays
basketball and baseball. Last year she
was a member of the girls' League
championship basketball team, coached
by Mra. Jean Eberhart
Elizabeth plana now to go to Ore
gon State college and major in home
economics. She likes sewings and
canning best in this line, but she
hasn't decided just' whaf she will pre
pare herself for. Dress designing
she finds very interesting. When she
attended Woodrow Wilson junior high
in Eugene a few years ago she was
able to take drawing and liked that
very much. ' She enjoyed designing
and modeling dresses there, and prob
ably will study that line of work when
she goes to college.
In the meantime, ahe is perfecting
her workmanship by designing and
making dresses and underwear which
would put many a college girl or
housewife to shame.
