BONNER SECRETARY OF POWER BOARD Washington, fFi Prank E. Bon ner, district engineer of the United States forest service for California, has been decided upon as secretary of the federal power commission, succeeding O. C. Merrill, resigned PLAN CHANGES IN EMPLOYMENT OF INSTRUCTORS Three recommendations which President Carl G. Doney of Willam ette university submitted to the board of trustees in his annual re port, and which he considers highly imoortant in line with the develop ment of the school, have been taken under advisement by thai group. The first recommendation is that a committee on teacher tenure be ap oolnted to work out a plan whereby instructors of proven worth may be elected for an indeitnite term, thereby eliminating the necessity of bringing their names before the fac ulty committee each year lor re election. A second recommendation was that an appropriation be made for Christian work and lecturers. This fund could be used to bring promi nent speakers here to address the students. Dr. Doney points out. The thuyl recommendation was that each teacher who would go to school in the summer to take grad uate work, be paid $200 toward the expense of such a course. This work would go a long way to vital no the work ot the instructors. Dr. Doney states, and would give the teachers a broader contact with others. There is a strong possibility that a second full time professor will be added to the law school. It is under stood that C. M. Inman, who has practiced in Salem for a number of years, will give up his practice to take the professorship. FAIRBANKS IN THE IRON MASK In his new picture, The Iron Mask," at Bligh's Capitol, Douglas Fairbanks in the role of D Artag- nan, speaks for the first time in a talking picture, but it marks the third time that he has appeared as the dashing ana audacious guards man. In a screen production. This gay and danng fellow, D Artatrnan, has always been a fvorite of Doug's, and it has been his life ambition to produce a complete cycle of the Musketeer's life. He has accomp lished this with the presentation of his new picture. It was twelve years ago, shortly after Fairbanks entrance Into pic tures, that he first portrayed D'Ar tagnan in a story called "A Mod ern Musketeer." As a Tuxedo dare devil. FaVW'nks romped through the greater portion of the film, leaped from place to place, rescued the girl In distress and performed heroic feats. But in a screen pre lude that Introduced the Modern Musketeer, the real D'Artagnan ap peared. Here it was that Fairbanks first wore the cloak of the daring soldier of fortune and Introduced to the world his conception of Dumas' clashing hero. In this fleeting epi sode Douglas Fairbanks revitalized the days of chivalry and brought back the lustre of a glamorous and romantic period. PRESSURE BY HOOVER FAILS TO PASS BILL (Continued from page 1) tural legislation should take. President Hoover soon after the special session was begun sent word to Capitol Hill that he was opposed to the export debenture plan, but the senate in passing the measure, inserted that provision. The house refused to accept it and Its con ferees who met with the senate con ferees steadfastly held out against the measure which contained such a provision. Party lines were broken during the discussion of the bill. At one time the senate heard a debate be tween two of president Hoover's most prominent supporters over the question Senator Borah of Idaho favoring the debenture, while Sena tor Allen of Kansas, opposed tt vig orously.

No arooumeatenV was made regarding the vote of, Senator Kendrick, democrat, Wyom ing, the other absentee. Senator Shipstead. farmer-labor of Minnesota, left a sick bed to come to the chamber today for the first time this season and vote against the measure. Senator McNary of Oregon mediately moved to send the bin back to conference with instructions to insist on the debenture clause. This motion was adopted and vl irendent Citts named Sena jra alcNary, Norris of Nebraska. Capper of Kar.u, repirtUcAns, and Ransdell of Louisiana and Smith of South Carolina, democrats, as the senate conferees. All served In the first conference. The outcome of farm legislation now Is in doubt as a result. The house has flatly refused to take a vote on the debenture plan. The senate vote was a victory for those who contend the debenture plan should not be eliminated until the house expresses itself. Some farm leaders have asserted that senate rejection of the confer ence bill would mean the end of farm Igislation in the special ses sions. Others have been more san- (Concluded oa page 10. column 6) IN FIRST TALKIE ATELSINORE Richard DIx in, his first 100 rer cent ail talking comedy.

In order to win the bet he finds himself telling his sweetheart that he was in love once before with a weight-lifting woman of the cir cus, telling his boss that he is an unscrupulous business man and a "night life hound," telling a beauti ful singer at a house party that he thinks her singing is terrible and getting himself into all kinds of laugh-provoking jams. Helen Kane, famous phonograph and radio artist, is cast as one of the featured players opposite Dix, and puts over a few great hot vocal numbers, via the audible screen.

OLDSOATfO FIND SANCTUARY IN WHITE HOUSE Washington, (IP) Secretary of State Stimson and the Old Soak probably will stage their long await ed reunion this week in New York where the parakeet arrived Monday alter a trip from Manila.

Stimson till is living In a hotel here where many of the guests are permanent residences with families. Because of the Old Soak's reputed gifts of profanity it is doubted if it would be welcome there. The state department might house the bird.

Mrs. Hoover Is said to have of fered the secretary's pet sanctuary in the White House. Wherever the bird goes, it is like ly to have a new name. Suggestions that "Old Soak" is not compatible with the dryness of the current ad ministration have been brought to Stimson's attention with the result he has undertaken to consider sug gestions for a more suitable title. such for Instance, as "sodawater."

The elevator still remains unfin ished and members of the court are unable to say Just when It will be completed, so no decision has been reached as to whom the operator will De.

FIND BOOTLEG QUEEN A MYTH Washington (P) Prohibition of ficials have decided that the "boot leg queen" is a myth. Only 35 women have been sen tenced to federal institutions for bootlegging since January L a check up by them showed Tuesday, indi cating they said, that as bootleggers women were good stool pigeons. women are the bootleg helpers," officials said. "They play their minor part answering telephones, keeping accounts, and occasionally as blinds In transportation but none have been convicted for taking car goes to sea, leading bootleg rings, or engaging In blg time' rum-running of their own." One high official explained the situation by suggesting that In this as in other activities women are too new to the practice to lead it. Only since the organization of boot legging as a business, he said, has there been opportunity for the lead ers to engage in it without brav ing, physical hazard. This development has made it conceivable that women should be come leaders; but they have not done so.
