P) Reports that William Jen nings llryan honed to make an other campaign for the preaidency or he planned to make his ad vocacy of fundamentalism a means to such an end, are without foundation In truth. Insofar intimate associates of the dead statesman are able to know with certainty. Will E. Thomson, secre tary to Mr. Uryan for the past four years told the Associated Press today. "I base this assertion, not only on by intimate acquaintance with Mr. Uryan but on his own recent statement," Mr. Thomson said, "Mr. Uryan emphatically repudi ated in this utteranco any such purpose or expectation," Thoast years of tho commoner, the secretary asserted, woro given over largely to religious affairs, advocacy of his principles of orthodoxy having supplanted to a large extent his active participa tion in the political world. "Although his active political life was long before my connection with Mr. llryan, I know from my close association with those who wero with his household In .those days and from Mr. llryan 's own remarks, that tbe defeats he sustained in his candidacies for the presidency had no embittering effect on his spirit," Mr. Thomson said. "The former secretary of state used frequently to refer In good humor to his Ill-success in the national campaigns. He never lost' his full confidence In the right and the ability of people to rule. AMERICANS CONSUME MOST CIGARETTES Hei lin In a survey of cigarette moking, the periodical Kxcelilor, let-lares that Americans are the greatest smokers In the world.

The law went Into effect July 1, and allowed only n little more limn thirty days within which to-make provision for Us administration, while in practically everv other state having a similar law. six months to a year was allowed for the purpose. It has been physical ly Impossible lo provide the neces sary machinery and facilities with in the limited time, but It Is ex pected that certificates of title for every motor vehicle operated In Oregon will be issued by Decem ber 1, 1925. Every motor vehicle owner In the state who has not al ready applied for tbe required cer tificate o title Is urged to do so Immediately. It is estimated that by the end of 1925 there will be between 210,000 nnd 215.000 motor vehicles In Oregon, Ten or twelve- states have a ehni lar law to the Oregon law. In those states it is claimed that motor ve hicle thefts have been greatly re duced, and also that the existence or such a law has had a material effect upon the rales charged by insurance companies in connection with Insurance on motor vehicles. Applications are being returned to tho secretary of state ut the rate of from 3000 to 5000 per day, and it will require the issuance of from 2000 to 3000 certificates each day up to December 1 In order that every motor vehicle owner will be provided with a certificate of title by that time. "No motor vehicle can be trans ferred from one person to another without a certificate of title," said Kozer today, Vatid in those cases of transfer since July 1 ihe record owner at that date will be required t6 make application for certificate of title, which certificate can then be transferred by him to the per son to whom he has sold tho ve- hlclo. subsequent to that date. "Again, no 1926 motor vehicle license can be iasued for any mot or vehicle owned and operated in this state unless a certificate of title is first Issued. In view of this It becomes necesmry for every motor vehicle owner in Oregon to secure a certificate of title for his motor vehicle so as to pave the way for the issuing of 192G licences vhlch will be taken up early In the month of November as has been the practice for many years past.

Tho statute was enacted in 1917. Under the provisions of the statute upou conviction the father ot an illegitimate child becomes responsible for its support fur u period of 14 years, the child Is permitted to take the name of Us father and is granted equal righto of Inheritance with all children horn In lawful wedlock. Validitv Uuheld. Attorney Walter . Keyes for 7, id in ski attacked the constitu tionality of the statute ou the completion of testimony. Betting up the following contentions: That it provides for imprison ment for debt. That it provides for imprison ment without limitation of time. That it requires the accused to give a bond or to go to jail through failure to post a bond. All of these, contentions were overruled by the court. Arguments were made this mornlne by Attorney Waller C. Window for Heleu Ganiard, moth er of the child involved in the case, and by Keyes for Zielinskl reputed to be father of tbe child according to the complaint. Defendant's Letter. One of the central bits of evi dence was a letter writ fen by Zie- linski to the girl on March 12 1923. in which he used numerous endearing terms, and which the plaintiff's attorney declared, the defendant by intimation admitted the charge against him. Contentions by the defense were that the girl had associated with a number of young men in the community and that such as sociation threw a cloud over the allegation that Zielfnski was par ent of the child. A peculiar situation arose in the court room this morning wnen Attorney Wirvslow, pleading for the future of Ihe child, terrified the Infant with his" thunder! or tones and it cried lustily, HtMr knowing that its future financial welfare largely depended upon what was being said to the jury. The jury was made up ot ten men and tw0 women. WATTS CASE GUARDIANSHIP HELD LEGAL (Continue.1 from Page One.) cipal of her property was increas ed.

The only actual consideration received by Miss Watt was the alleged care glv en her by th McKlroye and Mrs. Watson, their promise to maintain her during her life and to pay her an annuity ot $200 In Installments of $100. An agreement to this ef fect was drawn up and officially recorded. No security was given by the McElroj'a and Mrs. Watson for the faithful performance of their part of the Agreement. Given To Strangers At the time these transactions were made the McElroys and Mrs, Watson were comparative strnng- ers In Salem, says tho opinion, and after Miss Watt became acquainted with Mrs. Watson and had lived with her awhile, they moved from the house owned by Miss Watt on Chemekcta street to a four-ncre tract a short distance south of the city limits of Salem where they have lived sinco in a small cheap house, a part of which was for merly used as a chicken house. Since this removal her property on Chemelteta street has been oc cupied by Mrs. McEIroy while Mc lOlroy himself has spent part of tho time with her and part of it with Mrs. Watson and Miss Watt on the four-acre tract. Tho foregoing statement of facts, says the opinion, la undisputed and is tnken from the testimony of .McElroy nnd Airs. Watson. Distant Itelntives The court finds that Attorneys Ford and Condi t acted for MLss Watt with tho utmost Integrity. There is cvldenco that McElroy made disparaging remarks about Kord and referred to Condit as be ing "worse than Kord." Tho conduct of the petitioners, tho opinion says, has been above reproach relative to Miss Watt, as far as disclosed by tho record. They are related to her, though not next of kin, and the probability of their ever receiving any of her property s remote, so there is no evidence of selfish motives. Testimony as to the mental ca pacity of Miss Watt waa conflict ing but all the witnesses for the petitioners were of tbe opinion that she was not capable unassisted to manage her business affairs, anad this als'i is the opinion of the court.
