DERRY ON TRIAL FOR VI0LAT1 OF LIQUOR LAW Dallas, Or., Oct. 8. The case of the state of Oregon ve. Tim Derry on a liquor violation charge wae started Wednesday afternoon before Judge Ramsey, following the Lloyd case. Two important state witnesses had not arrived and the ocurt adjourned until this morning after selection of a Jury had been connected. Tho Derry case Has beon ban died around for several months. It originally, came up in Jauuary but on a motion of prejudice against Judge Itameey It wag set beore Judge Kelly In Marion county. Judge Kelly sent It back to Polk county, holding that a change of venue could not be granted and that a judge could be sent in. Judge Ramsey then ruled that a recent supremo court decision held no affidavit of prejudice could be filed in a caee in which some previous motion had been made, and decided that the case must be tried before him. Derry led prohibition officers a wild chase in December when they followed his roadster out of Dal las, through Monmouth and Inde pendence and finally over took Kim near Albany, nfter wrecking one purmiing car. They found no evidence but he was fined on a (speeding charge. A raid later on quartern alleged to have been oc cupied by Derry In the southern part of Polk county uncovered the evidence on which ho was indict ed, lie ia represented by Attornuy E. K. Plasecki, and the state by District Attorney Holgerson. HOME MADE AIR PLANE FATAL TO ITS AVIATOR MUclict Field, New York, Oct. S. (A. P.) Harry Bunnell!, ci vilian aviator, wns killed and Clarence D.

City Zoning To Be Announced By May or With tho appointment of a spe cial commission within the next two days, work of formulating a zoning system for the city of Sa lem Will be actively launched. Mayor John Gle.y told the Marlon Polk County Realtors association at their luncheon this noon. Mr. Qiesy declared that the zoninr sys tern is the logical Way to regulate building In the city. "There should be tome way," he said, "by which a man may know before ho ever starta In whether or not he is to be allowed to put up Just the kind of a structure he wants to build.'' The practice of erecting build ings,1 Including service stations, practically at will throughout the city should be prohibited, Gley stat. ed. At the same time, he said. It Is "placing too much of a burden on the city council to ask It to de cide each case Individually. There nhould be snnie way by which all thfso matters em be settled per manently. "If I hut a lot In Fnlem I prob ably think I am entitled to build anything I want on It, whether it's a barn, a service station, a Junk hop or what not. Owner of ad IF State Treasury Forced To Draw From Deposits To get money for ordinary stato business it has been necessary for State Treasurer Kay, he said to day, to draw over $3,000,000 of state deposits from Oregon banks in the last month. This has been necessary because no state tax de posits, on second half payments, have yet been received from tho counties with the exception of $100,000 from Multnomah county. The withdrawal of state money from the bonks has in some in stances worried the banks, though it Is the policy of the stato treas urer not to draw too heavily from any one depository. MoBt of the withdrawals, have been from western Oregon and Portland banks. The payment of the second half of state taxes by the counties will bring In about $3,500,000, but of this only about 11,500,000 can go into the general fund of the stntc for ordinary state purposes. The ALLEN ELECTED T BY Grants Paw, Oct. 8 Wilford Al len, of Grants Pass, was elected president of the Oregon Irrigation Congress at the concluding session of the annual meeting here Inst night. He defeated J a men M. Kyle, of Stanfield, who has been provident for two years. The vote waa Allen 157, Kyle 153. W. T. Power, of Oregon Agricultural col lege, waa elected secretary suc ceeding "Walter E. Mea chain. The fight against Kyle was led by Ralph Cowglll, of Medford. who headed a group of, Medford people, lie waa supported by Percy Cup per, former state engineer. A resolution was adopted urg ing the state securities commtaaion to require every district whose In terest on bonds has been guaran teed by the atnte to employ a col onization agent. Rhea Luper, state engineer, declared that only 3600 families would be required to com plete settlement of every district. Concerning the proposal of Sec retary of the Interior Work that the elate should cooperate finan cially In developing reclamation projects, the congress adopted a resolution saying the state had no power under the constitution or otherwise to cooperate financial ly In aiding settlers on federal reclamation undertakings. Board This Week joining property, however, do have rights in the question. An atlinc tive building will increase the value of their property, nnd an unat tractive one will decrease Its value If the matter is all settled before hand controversy will be avoid ed." Efforts were made for years to Ret rid of the old laundry build ing, formerly a Methodist church, on South Liberty street, before the building was finally disposed of. the mayor said. Even at present, he stated, there Is a Junk shop on North Capitol street that cannot be dislodged by any present city regulation. "The question of the new m r vico station on North Cnpliol street," he said, "did not come up for decision until the builders were ready to start work. Then the neighbors raised an objection." The zoning commission will con Ist of seven "leading citizens" of the city, the mayor announced, with himself, the city engineer and the city attorney being ex-offlclo members. "I believe Salem li starting this thing at the right Urn," he concluded. SALEM, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1925 remainder is mainly millage taxes levied for specified purposes such as support of state Institu tions of higher learning. Payments ' from the counties will relieve the situation, says Mr. Kay, only temporarily, and soon after the first of the yea"r the treasury will be at a low ebb again. Tho lack of funds In the state treasury Is probably more serious than for 10 years. Had the state tax commission last year, through the arbitrary action of Governor Pierce and State Treasurer Myers not arbitrarily cut the state levy in half the state treasury would now have about $1,000,000 more to work with than it has. Pierce, in retaliation because of the repeal of the state income tax law by the people, and attempting to fulfill his promise to cut taxes, caused the state levy to bo cut approxi mately $1,000,000 short of the normal levy. STEAMER STUCK ON KEIZER BAR E The river eteamer Northwestern was today abandoned at a point some 6 miles down the Willamette river from Salem on Its way from Portland' to this city. The boat will probably romaln In Its pres ent position for about a week, It was announced, a wlHch time It Is expected that the river will be cleared. The Mathloma, government dredge, will be brought up the river and begin work Immediately clearing the channel. ' The point at which the North western has become stuck Is just below Keizer bar. Tho boat left Portland Saturday with Salem as its destination, and took about four days to get as far as its present position, being forced to "line over" at aevera! places. Yesterday tho steamer's wheel was slightly Injured, and was re paired today. The boat's crew, which put up in Salem last night, was taken to Portland today. Tho crew will return In a week and take the boat on up the river to Its dock here. ''The dredge has done good work fn the lower part of the river," said Captain Kruze, who has had charge of the Northwest ern, this morning. "We encount ered no real difficulty in getting as far up as we are now, although it was slow work at times." The upper part of the river was dredged several months ago, and it In thought that In some cases the channel has become filled In again. Another reason advanced for Us present Impassable condi tion Is the fact that the dredging was done when tho level of the river was considerably higher than Its present level. If the steamer once makes the complete run between this city and Portland It will continue on regular schedule. Homecoming day at Willamette university for the present season was this morning set for October 30 and 31. The second day, October lit, Is tho date of the Willamette-Whitman football game on SwcMland field. Instead of the usual en tertainment Saturday evening n jvlny will be presented In Waller hall by Tjhctft Alpha Phi, univer sity dramatic fraternity. The old grandstand at the south side of Kweelland field will be re moved. It was announced this morn ing. The new stand, erected Inst year, will seat 2000 persons, and bleachers enn be set up in case the crowd la larger. A five foot wire fence Is to bs placed around the gridiron to keep th crowd oft tbt field. I WE COM'NG !
