A group of Johnson admirers set 20 petitions in circulation at ntjon yesterday urging Hiram W Johnson to bolt the repub lican ticket nominated at Chicago and head a new party. If Senator Johnson Issues a statement that he will abide by the decision of the convention, the movement launched in Portland and which is In sympathy with a similar movement started In New York, will automatically cease. . . Those who have, banded themselves together to tempt the Callfornlan to repudiate the platform and 'nominees of the republican party are in nowise connected with the official Johnson organization which had charge of his campaign in Oregon during the recent primaries. It is an entirely volunteer organization and working Independ ently of the Johnson machine. Closing Matter To Be Settled By Each Salem Store Owner Each Salem store manager must decide for himself whether or not his shop will remain open on Shrln er's day, Wednesday, June 28. That is the conclusion reached by the Salem Business Men's League af ter some deliberation. Originally It was believed that It would be well to close all stulres but since then 1f has been pointed out that the city would appear rather quiet to the visitors, Extent Of Shriners Invasion Is Shown ' By Portland Man "Oregon Shrlners have raised and Will spend, over 1200,000 to bring this dominant class of visitors to Ore Son and to Portland," stuted Judne t. W, Stapleton of Portland, Wednes day noon while addressing a Rutar lan banquet audience at the Marlon! hotel. Judge Stapleton is a member i of Al Kader Temple, the Portland i Shrine. ' In describing the Shrine organlia-l Ions that will make the visit to tho' Rose City, the speaker designated 87 patrols, two mounted patrols, U tirum corps, two jazi bands. It chant era organizations and 72 visiting bands which will be augmented by four local bands. Them organizations from all parts of the United States will be brought to Portland in 43 spo jcial trains. Judge Stapleton asserted that the eopl of the Willamette valley have n opportunity to give this section substantial advertisement by bringing these visitors right Into the heart of the world's most attractive agricul tural and horticultural section, lktmlutlon Adopted The following rtsolution was pass ed by the-Salem Rotary club: 'The" business men of Salem are Urged to list their cars and to encour age every employe to list his car In doing everything possible to pit -tde a sufficient number of cars to ac commodate those Shrlners who will be Introduced to the Willamette Val ley for the first time. "Every business mnn snd ear nwn fcr in the valley should donate their cars for the big loop caravan. June it. Remember that you will be taken car of, as to accommodation, it you Inform the Portland or Salem Shrln ers committees at once." The citizens of Oregon are urged In an open letter given but by Governor Olcott this morning, to lend their co operation In making the visit of the Shrlners to the state next wee'e an un paralleled success. The letter follows: "Next week, from June 21st to June 26th, inclusive, Oregon la to enter tain the members of the Ancient Ara bto Order Nobles of , the Mystic Shrine. These men and their wives will come from every corner of the nation. It will be a gala week for Portland and for all Oregon. This forty sixth annual session of the im perial council will be one of the great est events In the history of the order, as well as In the history of the state. Thousands of visitors will come to the Pacific coast, their eyes turned- to ward the state which Is rapidly be coming known as the Fairyland of the west It Is due to the visitors, ns well as to the name of our state, that they be given greeting and entertain ment such as they have received In no other city which may have been the Mecca of their past pilgrimages. ' "For that reason I call upon the people of Oregon to join In making the visit of the Shrlners an unpunilled success and in making the Rose Fes tival, an Incident of Shrlners' Week, the most magnificent festival of its kind In history. "Let us supplement our scenic wonders and climatic glories with the best of Oregon hospitality. In the great week that lies Just ahead It be hooves every citizen of Oregon to Join in making this event one without par allel In our annals, and I am sure a ready response will come from every county, every city, every village and from every farm and home." Campers Here Fear Gasless Regions Salem's auto camp is already being used by a great number of motorists, some of whom are staying in the city rather than take a chance at present on traveling through the "no gas" regions at various points on the road, Numerous signs on which appear, "Free auto Camp Grounds" directing parties to Salem's large tract for the Gasless Motorist Comes Here Aided By 4 Moth Balls How four common moth balls play ed their part in a formula which brought a motorist, southbound, in a satisfactory if not odorless manner, from the bone dry gas regions to Sa lem recently, was explained today to E. T. McCroskey, manager of the lo cal Commercial Club by a motorist at the Salem auto camp. Arriving at an automobile camp north of Salem with but a quart of I gasoline in his tank, the motorist ex plained how bare oft the explosion producing fluid his gas receptacle was.. "Guess you're stuck for a while," a sympathetic fellow autolst observed. "Not much," the gasless motorist replied confidently. "I've a formula that'll take me anywere. Watch me tomorrow morning." They watched. Five gallons of kerosene, a quart of benzine, some wood alcohol and some other liquids were mixed. And Into this four loud-smelling moth balls were dropped. "And he got out, too, and came as far as Salem" the camper concluded to Mr. McCroskey, "but the odor it was awful. Anybody traveling back of him, I fear, would be subject to asphyxiation." Automobile experts declare that the use of these "special formulas" Is not only dangerous but injurious to motor.

For the present, at least, it will be accommodated in the Highland school building. Mark E. Elliott. H. C. Hum mel and Ward K. Richardson have signed the agreement as representa tives of the North Salem community. Mrs. George Thompson is appointed librarian, and she will have the li brary open every Wednesday evening. A collection of 150 books is being sent to equip the library. As a branch of the Salem pubMc li brary it is to be administered under the same rules. Any patron of the public ibrary who finds it more con vient may borrow from the branch li brary, if he will return to the main library any books he has borrowed there and present his card at the branch. Upon request, the main li brary will send to the branch any pa trons' card that they may be ready for use there. Residents who are not now library patrons may register at any time and their cards will serve at eith er place. The only restriction on the use of the two libraries is that books must always be returned to the library from which they. were borrowed. Larger Library Available. If the patrons of the branch nonr tall to find the books on the subjects they wish, the branch librarian will re- quest the books from the main library to be sent out for the nesr'open night a.'.c public liuiaiy is maKmg every ef fort to develop this new undertaking in a manner that will adequately serve a community which by reason of its distance from the center of town has never been able fully to avail it self of the library privileges offered at the public library. The librarian's report for the month of May shows a circulation of 4552 books; 130 books have been added during the month, making a total of 15,284 books in. the library. , l' -1 Graduates Give Art Glass Window To Alma Mater Following the traditional custom of senior classes of Willamette University of leaving a gift to the school, the class of 1920, at the class day exercises Tuesday, presented the university with a beautiful art glass window for Wal ler hall. . Harold Ohllng, president of the class made the presentation and expressed the hope that the future " graduating clasaea of the institution would look upon it as a precedent for their gifts. He said that it was the hope of the class of 1920 to return some day and see Waller hall equipped with such windows "a fitting monument to the sacred ness of her history." An appreciated feature of the after noon's program was the presentation by the Gunnell & Robb studio, of a frame containing pictures of the entire student body.
