Liberty. of HOOVERSMNS PROSPECTS FOR FEDERAL BENCH Washington Mv-President Hoov er Is prepared to make an early decision on the choice or a sue cesror to the late Associate Justice Edward T. Sanford of the supreme court. Confronted with a host of names, the president U believed by thoss who have conferred with him still to have an open mind. They also lean to the belief that he is scan ning the southland first. Justice Sanford came from Tennessee. Justice Sanford was a republican. but even should a democrat be named In his place it would leave the makeup of the court, five re publicans and four democrats. Several names are oeiore tne president from the south, including Senator George, of Georgia; Judge Samuel Sibley of the federal court for the northern district of Georgia: Walter O. 8tacy, justice of the North Carolina supreme court, and Judge John J. Parker, of the fed eral circuit court of appeals, fourth district. All of these are democrats except Parker. White House callers also nave gained the Impression that the pres ident will seek to avoid a man aligned with the extremist ranks of either liberalism or conservatism. There are prospects of strong movements for both Senator Borah, of Idaho, and Judge William S. Kenyon, of the federal circuit court and a former repurjnean senator from Iowa. Both are identified with the liberal class. Borah waged the fight against the confirmation of Chief Justice Hughes. The name of John W. Davis, dem ocratic presidential nominee of 1924 and prominent lawyer, continues to be heard in the discussion, jar. Davis comes from West Virginia, al though much of his practice has been in New York of recent years. The Y. W. C.

JACKSONVILLE BANK FORGERY AGAIN IN COURT Portland, Ore. W -Federal Judge Bean Friday took under advisement the suit brought by the government against the Ladd and Tilton bank as the outgrowth of a bond deal in which two Jacksonville, ore., men figured. The bonds, nine $1,000 denomina tions, had been deposited with the Bank of Jacksonville by Andrew Cant re 11 and George Fish, owners. During the trial it was revealed that W. H. Johnson, a bank official, had allegedly forged the names of the owners to the bonds and sent them to the Ladd and Tilton bank which in turn exchanged them for coupon bonds of the same amount from the Federal Reserve bank. The goverment paid Cantrell and Fish for their bonds and sued the Ladd and Tilton bank iov $9,000 damages and interest from 1920, the year of the bond transaction after it found It could not collect from Johnson. Judge Bean said he would decide whether Ladd and Tilton bank knew the bonds had been forged. Both banks have been disbanded since. ORAH NEVER DREW INCREASE IN HIS SALARY Washington Wr-It was disclosed Friday that Senator Borah of Ida ho, never has drawn the Increase of $3500 a year in salary authorized for members of congress five years ago. This came to light during Informal discusslou of whether a law prohib iting members of congress from holding an office for which they have voted an increase in salary would make the Idahoan ineligible for arroolntment to the supreme court bench as successor to the late Edward T. Sanford. Borah has voted against all recent salarv Increase bills and is certain, as are his friends, that ne votea against the I'sasure Increasing su preme court salaries. He, however, does not recall the vote and there was no record ballot on the bill. But there are some other rea- rnna than thflt Whv I fiJII inelig ible," the Idahoan said Friday with j laugh when asked about it. ne only smiled when requested to am plify. As a result of refusing to accept the congressional salary increase from $7,500 to $10,000 a year, Borah has $12,500 to his credit in the treas ury. He may draw It any time but if he does not it will stay there. JOHN R. KiNKLE, PIONEER, PASSES John Robert riinkle, a resident of Oregon since 1852, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. O. L.

BAILEY TALKS INCOME TAX AT LION'S LUNCHEON Enactment of an Income tax, baa ed upon reasonable rate and exemp tions, will best solve the financial difficulties of the stale, in the opin ion of Edward Bailey, state senator from Lane county and candidate for the democratic nomination of gov ernor, who spoke before the Salem Lions club Friday noon. He pointed out that at present persons repre senting only one-seventh of the total Income of tne state are paying three-fourths of the taxes. Ability to pay la the yardstick of taxation and an equitible Income tax best meets this requirement, he stated. There Is nothing really the mat ter with Oregon as a state, but its vast natural resources are not oe Ing developed along the line of a sound and permanent program. Senator Bailey asserted.
