YOUTH SELLS DAD'S
CAR FOR 30 GENTS
Lonjrview, Wash OB When the
eas didn't feed, or the tires went
flat. C. W. Leadford might have
said "for thirty cents Id sell this
car.
That is just what his five year
old son did. Two strangers calted
while Leadford and his wife were
out. The boy told them that his
father wanted the space that the
car occupied for a garden and that
they could have the family bus for
thirty cents. This looked like a bar
gain to the two unidentified men
who stripped the car and later haul
ed it away.
Police are working on tlie case.

To The Editor In your issue of
Tuesday, it was stated that Salem
district was the only place outside
of Bclguim where fibre flax could
be grown. Your correspondent must
be misinformed, as flax is grown in
Prance, Holland, Germany, Ire
land, Russia, Baltic States and in
some parts of the Balkans,
All of them producing fibre flax
equal or superior to the flax grown
around saieni.

BEST EXECUTIVE IS
SAID TO BE GRUFF
French Lie!:. Ind. P A cross
section of the traits which build
executive leadership, taken direct
frcm American industry, was pre
sented before the national associa
tion of office managers at its meet
ins here.
The report was from Dr. Donald
A. Laird, director of Colgate univer
sity psychological laboratory. He
was assisted in the studies by E. S.
Copeland, W. L. Webb and Everett
Holt.
The findings summarize qualifi
cations of "strong" men, marked by
their superiors for more pay and
executive leadership responsibility,
and "weak' men who just failed to
get the job.
Dr. Laird said many pet theories
were ujxset. Neither type differed
essentially in "interest in people,"
or in "fair play," while "hard work"
was not the key to success as be
tween the two groups. Self-control
under trying conditions also ap
peared of small importance, and
the "weak" leaders rated slightly
the higher in patience.
"Outstanding general traits of
the executive of strong leadership,"
said Dr. Laird, "were how he im
presses others as having self-confidence,
how well he plans and or
ganizes routine and subordinates,
general business judgment and ag
gressiveness, his foresight in anti
cipating future developments, his
knowledge cf the details of his
present job, his willingness to take
over responsibility and his ability
to carry it out.
"This Is rather a different pic
ture from one gained from literary
sources. It is not human or pleas
ing personality qualities that have
made the leader.
"As a matter of fact practically
half of the marked leaders had a
noticeable dislike of some of their
associates, had a temper, did not
know about the home conditions or
troubles of people, were argu
mentative, and people did not come
to them for confidential advice.
"The strong leader bragged more.
He is a bit more vulgar, is some
what likely to interrupt others,
than are the weak leaders."

CUT DOWN ON
STOP SIGNS IS
NOW FAVORED
The city planning commission
Monday night drew up a recommen
dation to the city council, winch will
be read next Monday sight, that
stop signs on Center street west of
Capitol be eliminated and "slow"
signs installed in their place.
The argument in favor of the
elimination is that too many streets
that are crossed by north and
south traffic have stop signs, with
the result that motorists are avoid
ing the stop street districts as much
as possible and congesting traffic on
other streets.
At the present time stop signs on
State, Court and Center streets at
practically all intersections and are
scattered about promiscuously at
other points In North Salem that
are considered by some officials to
be dangerous.
The planning commission also
recommended slow signs on Market
street at several intersections east
of Capitol.
A new ordinance relative to orna
mental lighting, mainly for the
benefit of the North High street
districts where cluster lights are
wanted. Is being whipped into shape
and will be introduced in the city
council in the near future. A form
er ordinance was vetoed by Mayor
Livesiey as inadequate.
2 TRANSPORT FLIERS
SUCCESSFUL FIREMEN
Washington (IP) Two transport
flyers recently added the role of
firemen to their other duties when,
riding through the clouds, they no
ticed burning dwellings beneath
them.
One, Richard W. Mickie. was fly
ing from Boston to Newark when
he noticed a flaming house beneath
him. No one below seemed to
notice it. so Mackie, swooping low,
raced his motor and attracted at
tention to the flames.
The second pilot. Merle A. Mol-
trup, flying between Buffalo and
Albany, was atracted by a burning
house In the town of Silver Creek,
about 35 miles west of Buffalo. He,
too, descended with raclne motor.
and finally attracting the attention
of people in the streets, called their
attention to uie naming dwelling.

"The modwn young people shy
away irom uie word "marriage,'
Edson declared. "It -carries with It

EIGHT MEMBERS
OF FARM BOARD
THOT LINED UP
Washington, OP) President Hoo
ver has nearly concluded the task
of selecting eight members of the
new federal farm board which is to
begin administration of a $150,000,
000 federal revolving fund for agri
cultural relief.
The process of choosing from four
hundred applicants has aroused
more interest in Washington than
tlie wording of the farm legislation
in congress because of the expecta
tion that the temper of the board
will determine how far the adminis
tration is to go. A conservative board
would be expected to cllog to the
letter of the law while a broadmind
ed board might go beyond the loose
formula for aiding cooperative mar
keting organizations as laid down in
the law. Deeply Interested congress
men expect Mr. Hoover to choose an
open minded board.
Those mentioned prominently for
posts include Charles Robertson, Los
Angeles, close friend and business
associate of Mr. Hoover, who may
be made chairman, former Secre
tary of Agriculture Jardine who ini
tiated the legislation; former Gov
ernor Samuel McKelvle of Nebras
ka, and President Thompson of the
American Farm Bureau federation.
There is a vigorous contest afoot
for the post from the wheat belt.
Minnesota, South and North Dakota
and Wisconsin having several active
candidates.
It Is expected the president may
yield to the demands of Uie wheat
district leaders and select two mem
bers of the board from that region.
One Is expected to come from the
south, to represent cotton, one
from the corn region; one to repre
sent existing cooperative associa
tions and another from the fruit
and vegetable areas.

London P) July 4. which Amer

England, will be celebrated in Eng
land this year as the 100th anni
versary of the English suburban
ites' independence from the high

In other words, It is to be the
centenary ot the London omnibus,
which 100 ears ago began to make
it possible for those who object to
high rents to ride to the lower rent
areas.
Three horses drew the first Lon
don omnibus, and 33 passengers
rode in It between Padding ton (at
that time a suburb) and the Bank
of England In the center of the
city.
Omnibuses already were plying
the streets of Paris at that time, in
fact, it was from Paris that the
idea of an omnibus line was brought
here by an English coachbuilder.
His first conductors were all sons
of naval officers.
Another early bus line promoter
was a woman. Mrs. Anne Mitchell,
