The air ministry, meanwhile, an nounced that one German plane had appeared foday over the Shet land islands and then vanished without dropping bombs when British fighting craft took to the air. Children in the locality left their schools for air raid shelters during a 15-minute raid warning. A British vessel, its name un disclosed, was bombed last night off the south coast. Five members I of tlie crew were killed. Fliers who took part in the Sylt i raids described a new German de I fense device the "flaming onion" ; an incendiary anti-aircraft pro jectile which bursts into liery fragments in mid-air, like a rocket. "They look pretty but they are not very effective," said the pilots.

Jn his talk, Mr. Buchanan pointed out real estate taxes are too high, public debt is too high, and there is generally a feeling toward retrenchment in govern ment and state expenses. "The Oregon Taxpayers' Federation is slow in arriving, but it is here; it is moving deliberately but it plans to function,'' he commented. As yet no program of policies has been announced, such awaiting ac tion by delegates when they get together in convention, Mr. Bu chanan said. The plan of the state organization is to con-elate the county activities. So far, 23 county organizations are formed, it was said. All have the purposes of 'economic control of public money and efficient administration of tax laws. Considerable tax data and information have been collected and given out, attention being given, too, to legislation that af fects taxes. The state group's ex ecutives have made it plain they run their own policy with no com promise with other groups or sel fish interests, the speaker said. Earlier in his talk, Mr. Buchan an hit at the rapid growth of pub lic debt and high taxes, nationally; pointing out that from 1928 when taxes took slightly more than 12 per cent of the national income the total had grown to 22 3-10 per dent in 1938, wilh the debt load being S432 per capita for every man, woman, and child in this country in 1938. In 1900, Washington and Ore gon were about the same in popu lation and in other phases. In the 1938-40 period, Washington is found with more than double Ore gon's population and many big in dustries going to the northern state. One reason is the 40-mill limitation law, which has affected reductions in real estate, taxes of up to 40 to 50 per cent there, the speaker commented, adding, the lax load in Oregon is too heavy. Tracey Says Steering Apparatus Faulty (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) from the bottle until it was emptied, he said. Tracey testified that he and Compton started in the truck for Junction City and at a point op posite the Loon driveway the right wheels started off the pave ment. He said he pressed the planned, bringing the British total to 53, and employing a quarter million persons oi whom half will be women. - brakes, whereupon the truck shot across the pavement and he pulled it back when it overturned. He said he was driving 35 or 40 miles an hour. The witness said be was thrown out of the cab and that ho got up and started "to go some pluce," he didn't kijow where. Ho testified that he knew very little of what happened after that time until the next morning, although he remembered that some body had brought him to Eugene. Pre vious to the tirheh e left the scene of the wreck, he said, he went to the injured man and asked him how he was. He said Compton told him he was pretty badly hurt. Witnesses for the state had testi fied that Tracey had left the scene, waded a slough and crossed a field to a neighboring house. The state had 2(i witnesses on the stand Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning. Several of them testified that Tracey ap peared to be intoxicated while in the truck.

UP) Recall of James H. R. Crom well, the American minister to Canada, was demanded today by Rep. Tinkham (R-Mass.) In a letter to Secretary Hull, Tinkham said that Cromwell, hus band of the former Doris Duke, had violated President Roosevelt's neutrality proclamation by recent speeches denouncing Germany and praising the allied cause. "Mr. Cromwell has made two offensive and disloyal speeches in Canada recently," said the Mas sachusetts republican, a member of the house foreign affairs com mittee. "The speeches were in tended to incite the American people to enter the present war in Europe and were seditious utter ances. "They were the speeches of an alien propagandist and not of a loyal American representative." If Cromwell is not recalled at once. Tinkham said, "congress should seriously consider his impeachment."
