(SKKAT I'XCLK DEAD, OU KILLED HIM HERSKIiF, SAY POLICE. (Br United Tresa to The Bend Bulletin) SEATTLE, Dec. 23. Captain of de tectives Charles Tennant has issued instructions to every coast city today to apprehend Miss Clara Sknrin, also known as Clurn Wlndborn, in con nection with the murder o( Ferdin and Hochbrunn here two months ago. Police believe Clara either run away from Seattle, insane at finding her great undo dead, or had committed crime herself. Mrs. Chedotal. occupying the room beneath tho death chamber, declared that Clurn had been in Hochbrunn's apartment since tho probable date of the murder. Clara's relatives deny tho girl wns Implicated, stating she went to Cali fornia for her health, eating Thanks giving dinner with them before leav ing. Mrs. Dalesman, an mint, saw her to tho train. She declared the girl was not excited.

GIVENTREATS AT EXERCISES JOIN IN COMMUNITY OBSERVATION ATTENDANCE RECORD Program Headed lly Nlievlin-Hlxon Hand Kn Joyed by Children Hunta I'Iiiun Hecelved With Joy Kxerclhen Well Presented. Nine hundred children attended last night's community Christmas tree, staged at the American Legion building by the Sunday schools; and If the applause accorded the various numbers Is any criterion, all of them enjoyed the various numbers from the opening concert by the Shevlln Hlxon band to the final appearance of Santa Claus through the (ireplace on the stage. The auditorium was not quite so crowded as it was for the community tree a year ago, but (or the reason that the children were given first opportunity to get seats, more of them were able to enjoy the pro gram; and since little (oik do not take up so much room as their elders It Is safe to say that there were more people in the building last night than ever before In Its history. Fifty people were turned away when Fire Chief Carlon decided that the build ing would hold no more safely. Attractive boxes of candy, the treat arrunged by the Woman's Civic league, were passed among the chil dren shortly after Santa Claus ar rived, and although 904 boxes had been prepared, there were a few chil dren who received none. Number Interesting The youthful performers in the several exercises prepared by the Sunday schools were all well drilled and presented a well balanced and interesting program. Among the most strik!::; were the musical exer cise "Why the Chimes Rang Out," "The Star," a drill participated in by 20 girls, atitl the tableau "Rock of Ages." Clever recitations by the little folks were all pleasing. Including "Christmas," by Edith Holt, "A Boy's Wants," "Advice," by Roberta Ben nett, "A Christmas Wish," by Vir ginia Carpenter and "Farewell" by Robert Friberg. Little Folk Take Part Exercises by the younger children were "A Golden Word," by five chil dren of the Baptist Sunday school, the Bong "O Night of Glndness" by Hugh Clapp, Mury Bennett and Lena Dyer, a Christmas exercise by Lundy Orr, Ralph Grimes, Marie Friberg, John Curry, Dorothy Curry and Wes ley Lucas, and "Half a Dozen Snow Birds," by Vernon Forbes, Jr., Rob ert De Armond and Walter Pease. Those taking part in "Why the Chimes Rang Out," were Connie Ma- honey, Mary Hennessy, Violet De Boer, Mary Holland, Margaret Jonas, Katherine Dugan, Sarah Davis Helen McLaughlin, Ruth Garske, Luella Halverson, Mary Miller. The exer cise was directed by Misses Marie Brosterhous, Mary Cody and Eva Roach. The tableau "Rock of Ages" was portrayod by Florence Curry, Marie Friberg, Grace Linton, Lulu McFad tlcn and Anna McNeal, while the song wns sung by Miss Dolores Cat low. Girls who appeared in "The Star" drill were Florence Brown, Glndys Connolly, Ermn Lehrmann, Mary Broughton, Eloise Spencer, Dorothy Taylor, Margaret Whipple.

BEND AUTO MEN STAND AGAINST GASOLINE BILL TAX TOO HEAVY NOW DECLARED VISITORS PENALIZED Htate Would lie Guilty of Inhonpt tallty, Asserted Auto Taxes AU ready Highest In I'nlon Re duces fload Fundn, Claimed. Garage, service station, and auta repair men of Bend stand almost solidly against the three cent gasoline- tax now before the legislature to fur nish a means of (inancing the 1126 Portland exposition. The bill would replace the two cents per gallon tax now In effect, and would d vote two cents to (air purposes and one cent (or roads where the Income from the present tax Is all devoted to road work. The exact terms of the meas ure are not definitely known here, but the (act that an increase on gas oline was contemplated was suffici ent (or practically all local business men connected with the auto Indus try who were interviewed this morn ing. "I am very much opposed to the) measure," W. G. Coombs, of the Bend garage, declared. "Autos a4 gas are standing the limit of taxa tion now. We would be Inviting guests to come to Oregon, and then make them pay (or the state fair at the same time that we are trying to popularize our scenery and highways. To me it seems much like asking a (riend to dinner and then telling him that you would depend on him to furnish the salad. I have wired to representative Overtur( stating my objections." Auto Owner Penalized N. P. Smith thought that the meas ure Is the best of all proposed for (inancing the (air. "We already have (Continued on last page.) . 1925" (The following letter to the editor of the Oregonlan, which appeared ia that paper several days ago, was writ ten by a former resident of this sec tion now engaged in farming ia Grants Pass.) GRANTS PASS, Ore., Dec. 23. A (air is an institution largely probably 90 per cent (or amuse ment, like a dance, a moving picture, or jazz music, all of which may at times be necessary, but in none ot them Is much that is substantial, really entertaining, or instructive. ' Fairs are very expensive amuse ments, rarely financially successful It is almost axiomatic that they have deficits to be met probably by taxa tion. Six millions does not product) much o( a (air nowadays; twenty millions Is a more probably needed amount. Once our six millions was in a (air how could we resist the ap peal (or other urgently needed ma lions" to complete? Now Is not the time to plan for spending money for amusement, when poverty and unemployment stalk. It is rather the time to spend money for permanent Improvements such as roads, reclamation of land, or port projects. ' The proposal for a Portland fair ia 1925 springs from a desire to adver tise Portland primarily and Oregon Incidentally, and thus attract popu lation. The net benefits, if any, arising thorefrom will practically all go to Tortland, its hotels and restau rants, transportation, theaters, stores, etc. If Portland wants the (air that 1s her business; but she should pay (or It and not ask the state at large to share any considerable amount o( tho cost, as she is now doing. For once she might take a chance without ask ing aid. She could, however, get more permanent and direct return by putting the money proposed (or the (air into a settled irrigation, or drainage project in Oregon, (or every Improvement made In Oregon insures In a great measure to the benefit of Portland. Unfortunately she has no near rival In the state or within her field of action from which to draw supplies. This has made her too sure ot her position, has held buck her aid In state development and con sequent Increase of population. ' ' '
