Benson, Minnesota, pushed ahead of his challenger, Hjalmar Petersen, ' woes of the times. E. B. McNaughton, president of the First National Bank of Portland, who described himself as "a conservative on the move," made a talk to the Rotary Club Tuesday in which he urged busi ness men and others, here and everywhere, to "stretch the brain cells" to find answers for the Human engineering problems which confront the modern world. McNaughton assailed "compla cency in error" as the gravest danger of the times. Though ex pressing little faith in the tem porary relative prosperity which may come next fall or winter as the result of pump priming an other nostrums, he declared his impatience with those who have no better plan of action than to make moan and blame the Roose velt administration for all the jL.-XL U'- Wax.- .

The lead had changed hands frequently. The two farmer-labor candi date's polled 100,000 votes more than the four republican aspir ants, lending credence to the be lief that thousands of republican voters had jumped the party fence in a move designed to eli minate Benson from the general election In November. The farmer-labor race Madaren, Love Are Re-Elected Gilbert D. MacLaren and Mrs over- I W. S. Love were re-elected to the se- of shadowed the republican and democratic contests. Harold Stas sen, republican, and Thomas Gal lagher, democrat, both young lawyers', were leading their res pective fields. In th republican column where the total vote of the four candi dates was 157,449 in 2140 pre cincts, as compared with 264.310 for the farmer-labor candidates, the vole stood Stassen 75.243; Martin Nelson 42,013; Mayor George Leach of Minneapolis 38, 143; Harson Northrop 2,047. The democratic vote for gover nor in 2140 precincts, gave Galla gher 14,412; Fred Schliplin 11,531; u,ij; vicioi Eugene school board for three-year terms Monday when Eugene citi zens went to the polls in the an nual school elections. Arthur F. Richards, third candidate in the race for positions on the board, was a close contender. Final tabulations gave MacLaren 262 votes. Mrs. Love 203, and Richards 185. . Mr. MacLaren's re-election starts him on his third term as member of the board, while Mrs. Love starts her second term. The count, by districts, is as fol lows: Washington school: MacLaren, 27; Love, 19; Richards, 12.

W Lin coln county's largest towns, New port and Toledo, resumed their family quarrel today over the designation of the county sea.. Toledo had the edge by force of possession in a controversy which has resulted in public action three times since the county was sep arated from Benton in 1893. Newport last sought designation as the county seat in 1928 but lost k.. hw marein. Since then the voting strength here has in creased by building developments along the coast Dom norui . south. Tiorfn and West Yaquina re ceived the highest number of votes iai mntest with Newport and Elk City. The voters selected Toledo as the site of the house at a run-off election in 1896.

Following tabulation of the bal lots Monday night, the school board convened in special session and re-elected members to otnee. The board then re-elected Mrs. E. A. Lundy as clerk for the eleventh consecutive time. Mrs. Clifford Constance, dean or girls at Eugene high school and instructor of Spanish, was granted a year's leave of absence by the hnarrf. LaDrew ftiosnDerger, oi Hermiston. was elected to fill Mrs. Constance's duties as Spanish teacher, while Miss Iva Curtis will become dean of girls. Other business transacted Dy tne board included the election oi Miss Marian Notvedt as home eco nomics instructor at Eugene high school, to fill the vacancy caused by the recent resignation of Miss Jean Inele.

"and I doubt if a Republican ad ministration would have avoided all mistakes." Mr. McNaughton described him self as "worried but optimistic as to the future of the United States and of Oregon. Oregon, where 86 percent of industry cen ters on agriculture and forestry products cannot hope to be very happy if those two Basic indus tries are afflicted as they are at present, he said. Deplores Penalties He deplored the penalties which have come upon the Northwest lumber industry as the result of Secretary Hull's efforts in re-; ciprocal tariff making, yet he ; declared that the Northwest; should acknowledge the probable! long range benefits which will j accrue from the efforts to lift j international trade above the level 1 of "taking in each other's wash-j ing." . , I .The Industrial ills are mainly i in the great eastern centers, he pointd out, and the cure of these, in his opinion will depend upon the application to human relation- m ri--J rrty ships of the intelligence which has J-Qf rjQOU LOfiilOl brought about scientific and en-. gineering advances. - "I sit in my bank and am visited !

Sheriff's officers in boats pa trolled the Yellowstone river at Glendive and Terry today in search of bodies from the Olym pian, Milwaukee road flyer which crashed to the bottom of Custer creek Sunday as a flood-beaten bridge gave way. Three railway porters told offi cials they saw seven people swept away as tire train struck. Glendive is 50 miles downstream from the crash. One body was re covered there late Sunday. Terry is about 15 miles below the wreck. 39 Known Bead Thirtv-nine were known dead, railroad officials said they ex pected to find at least 16 more in a mud-filled tourist sleeper upend ed last night from its position at the crook-bottom. Four bodies have been recover ed from the sleeper. Railroad crane operators esti mated the coach contained about 60 tons of mud which filtered throuRh vestibules and past win dow fastenings. All winds were in tact except one in a washroom. Two 100-ton cranes holding the car were being braced against the heavy load. Removal of bodies was halted until the operation wai completed. There were 67 passengers and crew members injured but 22 nl the injured left hospitals yester day and some of them were nmnns the 53 survivors who lef'.' on a special train for western des.ina Uons.
