Protests Resulting From
Pay Increases Given
Steiner And McNary
May,Start Ousters.
Action of the state board of
control recently in Increasing the
salaries of Dr. R. E. L. Steiner,
superintendent of the state hos
pital for the Insane at Salem, and
Dr. H. D. McNary, superintendent
of the state hospital at Pendleton,
hae been followed by a demand
from the superintendents of other
state Institutions that they also be
granted increases. There Is some
speculation here whether the de
mand that is being made will re
sult In the ouster of some super
intendents who are not In favor
with a majority of the board.
The salaries of Dr. Steiner and
Dr. McNary were increased from
$3,000 to $4,000 each. This was
done because of an act of the
1925 legislature prohibiting state
officials or employes from using
state-owned automobiles for any
purpose but state business. Dr.
McNary Informed the board that
since bis residence is located sev
eral miles from Pendleton it Is
necessary that he use the hospital
car for personal business trips,
and that he would resign it denied
that privilege with his salnry
remaining at the old figure. The
board saw justice in his ;)Ct!t!oti,
and a condition of the increase
In the salaries of both McNay and
Steiner In th.it they provide tht'r
o.' PutomnbP'is for personal
business and pleasure trips.
At an early meeting the board
will have to consider the-demands
of other superintendents for salary
increases under similar terms, and
Just what will be done about It Is
at present a delicate question with
the board.
Just who of the other superin
tendents have put in their de
mnndq could not be ascertained
here today, but there are nine
other superintendents, and It is
understood several of them want
higher salaries If denied the per

NATION IN SELF,
New York, July 3. (A. P.)
Sarge Ughet, who Is a great sov

won a court verdict for 1853,000
and when ho gets tho money ap.

Kerensky government, he came to
the United States as financial sec
retary to Ambassador Boris Bakh

In this capacity he sued the

ment, in the Blnck Tom Island ex

Coolidge Pledges Moral
Support of America
To Efforts To Assure
Peace Thru Pacts.
Cambridge, Mass., July 3. (A.
P.) Security pacts to preserve
the peace of Europe were giyen a
pledge of moral support toefhy by
President Coolidge, who coupled
his promise with a warning that
on no other terms could America
be expected to contribute further
to the financial revival of the
Old World.
"If the people of the Old World
are mutually distrustful of each
other," he said in an address de
livered here, "let them enter into
mutual covenants for their mutual
security.
"While our own country should
refrain from making political com
mitments where it does not havo
political interests, such covenants
would always have the moral sup
port of our government, and could
not fail to have the commendation
of the public opinion of the world.
"On what other basis can there
be any encouragement for a dis
position to attempt to finance a
revival of Europe?"
The president was speaking at
a celebration marking the 150th
anniversary of the day George
Washington took command of the
Continental Army, and nearly the
whole address had been devoted to
a review of the public services ot
the Father ot His Country. His
reference to the present day prob
lems of Europe came just at the
end, and was compressed Into a
few studious-chosen words which
made no specific reference to de
tails of the security pact proposals
recently under consideration
abroad.
A recapitulation of the virtues
of Washington provided the cue
for the pronouncement which was
the first formal statement on the
subject to he voiced on behalf of
the administration. After re.
counting Washington's faith In
the principles of democracy and
honesty, Mr. Coolidge continued:
"The vigor with which he In
sisted on the prosecution of war
was no less than the vigor with
which he insisted on the observ
ance of peace. He cherished no
resentments, he harbored no ha
treds, he forgave hfs enemies. He
felt the same obligation to execute
the terms of a treaty made for the
benefit of a former foe that be
felt to require the observance of
those made for the benefit of his
own country. He realized that
peace could be the result only of
mutual forebearance and mutual
good faith.
"He harmonized the divergent
and conflicting interests of differ
ent nationalities and different col
onial governments by conference
and agreement. He demonstrated
by his arguments, and our country
has demonstrated by experience,

Darrow Announces Fed

To Enjoin Enforcement
of Evolution Law.
Chicago, July 8 (AP) Defin
ite announcement was made here
today by Clarence Darrow thnt the
Scopes evolution trial, set for hear
lng at Dayton, Tenn., would be tak
en Into federal court by counsel for
the defense.
Mr. Darrow said this was defin
itely decided In a conference held
In New York by himself, Dr. John
R. Neal, Dudley Field Malone and
Bain bridge Colby. Dr. Neal has
left for Tennessee with tho neces
sary data and the application for
a federal Injunction to prevent the
state authorities from proceeding
with the case will be made either
Monday or Tuesday nt either Knox
ville or Chattanooga.
Two Charges Filed
Two complaints will be filed In
the federal court determined upon
by Dr. Neal, said Mr. Darrow. One
will be filed by Scopes and the
oi her by a property holder as yet
not determined upon. The com
plaints will in effect be applica
tions for Injunctions to restrain
tS'io state court, proceeding with
the trial of Scopes at Dayton,
Tenn., July 10.
Should tho federal Injunction not
be granted, Darrow and his three
associates would have no resource
but to proceed with the Dayton
trial next Friday,
Should the federal judge grant
tho petition, the evolution cae
would lose all Its appeal as a great
drama, with Us nationally known
witnesses appearing upon the stand
and expounding their views of the
creation of man. Instead tho law
yers themselves would argue the
matter of the legality of tho Ten
nessee law.
