SEEK CONTROL OF
PLANES ON BEACH
Elimination of nromlscuotts land
ing and taking off of airplanes on
the smooth stretches of Oregon
beaches, and provisions Instead for
designated areas for airplane traf
fic at coast resorts wilt be the ob
ject of legislation that probably
will be considered by the next legis
lature. This was the tentative plan
of representatives of the state
board of aeronautics, the state traf
fic division and the highway de
partment who conferred here
Thursday with Secretary of State
Hoss.
The conference resulted from
numerous complaints that nave
come from the beach resorts to the
effect that Uvea of resort patrons
are endangered by "Joy-hoppinf
on the beaches.
With the exception of about 25
miles of beach In Clatsop county
the Oregon beaches are legally des
ignated as state highways, which
gives the state traffic division au
thority to patrol them.
Secretary Hoss and Tex Rankin
of Portland were of the opinion
that 95 per cent of present hazards
could be eliminated by the regula
tion proposed.
MYSTERY SHROUDS
ATTACKON WOMAN
Authorities Friday were Investi
gating the story told them late
Thursday by Mrs. Storey Cannon,
a resident of the district two or
three mile south of Salem, of be
ing struck In the face and back of
the head by a mysterious "cripple."
According to the story told Bert
Smith, deputy sheriff, the man who
had appeared at her home earlier
In the day asking for food, return
ed while ah. was telephoning,
grasped her by the arm and struck
her about the head.
Officers point out that there
were no shoeprtnt of the man In
the house, which would iave been
likely had anyone walked Into the
place, since the eartn in tnac nei
ghborhood has a decided red shade
la It. They also state that a neigh
bor who came to the house alter
hearing Mrs. Cannon's shrieks was
refused admission to the house by
the woman.
Report of an attack similar to
th one described Thursday were
told to officers by Mrs. Cannon
about ten days ago.

BAILEY CLAIMS
TAX ISSUE NOT
MET BY OTHERS
Hood River, Ore. (Special) In
this campaign, where Portland mil
lionaires are being sponsored by
Portland newspapers for the office
of governor, only Senator Edward
F. Bailey, democratic gubernatorial
candidate, is saying a thing about
taxes.
-One would think that million
aires would be Interested In taxes,1
said Senator Bailey in addressing
two audiences in this city Thurs
day, "but they seem to be dodging
it completely. To me, as an up
state resident, It seems that taxes
and tax reform Is still a prime and
basic issue and I am talking It.
'I strongly advocate enforcement
of the tax equalization laws, and
I am 100 per cent behind the in
come tax. For too long have the
owners of homes and farms been
paying the biggest share of the tax
burden. Win or lose lu this election
and I don't expect to lose you
will see me fighting the tax battle
until we have reached that happy
and attainable position where the
state need no longer levy tribute
upon the owners of real property;
ultimately, the cost of state govern
ment will come from sources other
than the land."
Senator Bailer Is extremely op
timistic as to his chances of elec
tion, he said. "My candidacy. If
what I hear from friends la true.
Is. attracting a considerable vote
from outside my orm party. Mem
bers of other parties have person
ally assured me of their support
I feel very well pleased."

SMITH RIDICULES
G. 0. P. DRY STAND
Troy, N. Y. (LP) Former Govern
or Alfred K. Smith, campaigning
on behalf of Governor Franklin D.
Roosevelt and the democratic can
didates, rldculed New York state
republicans Thursday night for
"ducking and dodging" on the pro
hibition issue.
As examples he cited Caleb H.
Baumes, republican candidate for
lieutenant governor. He charged
that Baumes, heretofore regarded as
a militant dry, declined to state
his attitude on prohibition until It
was too late for dry a to enter
candidate against htr as they did
against the head of the ticket, Char
les H. Tuttle.
Smith said republicans assumed a
"hypocritical and deceitful attitude
to the electorate on the question of
the 18th amendment."
1929 BIRTH RATE
18.9 PER 1000
Washington (Ti The American
birth rate for 1929 was announced
by the census bureau Friday as lB.ft
per 1.000 population, the lowest for
any year since 1B15 when such
statistic were first compiled on a
national scale.
At the same time the Infant mor
tality rate also dropped to the low-
est point recorded e deaths of
infants under one year of age for
each 1,000 born. This compared
with a high Infant mortality rate of
101.0 per thousand births recorded
in 191 and 1918.
The highest birth rate for 1929
was In New Mexico, where it was
29.9. The lowest was In Oregon
11.1, and this sttt, also had the
lowest Infant mortality, 48. The
New Mexican Infant mortality was

CUTTING DITCH
FROM AIRPORT
TO AVERT FLOOD
With crews now working cutting
the ditch from the airport down to
a junction of Pringle creek south
east of the city and other crews
clearing out under the bridges over
Pringle creek and getting ready to
clean out Pringle creek where It
flows through Bush's pasture and
across Mission creek to dump Into
the race near the state blind school.
City Engineer Rogers stated Fri
day that he was confident the cut
to be made througn uusns pasture
will save that end of the city from
flooding during high water per
iods. It was first reported that the cut
being made in Uie ditch from the
airport through the James R. Linn
farm and across farm lands to
dump Into Pringle creek was to b?
turned loose In Pringle creek and
the cleaning of Pringle creek was
to stop at the edge of the Bush
pasture. This caused some resi
dents of the neighborhood to ex
press the -fear that It would turn
the flood waters loose over the
Bush pasture, put Mission street
under water and cause It possibly
to cover a large section of terri
tory never heretofore bothered by
flood waters.
City Engineer Rogers stated that
he was satisfied no such thing
would result as he believed the cut
to be made througn Busn pasture
in Pringle creek will be sufficient
to carry the water and not permit
an overflow.
The necessity for cutting the
ditch arose last year when a ditch
was cut around part of the city
airport. This ditch caught water
from the Turner road and the
whole thing was turned Into a
small ditch across the Linn farm.
This ditch cared for ordinary rain
water but when heavy water came
the country around It was covered.
In addition the accretions under
the new bridge on Thirteenth
street and the bridges on Twelfth
and Cross streets caused backup of
water the:i City Engineer Rogers
stated that crews have been clean
ing under some of these bridges
and are now cleaning under the
Cross street bridge. In addition he
states the brush has been cut from
Pringle creek through the Bush
pasture and the machine will be
sent In there to clean out the creek
further a ltltle later. He states that
the machine can work in there
even If the water does come up
some and he considers It Important
to get the bridges cleaned under
first.
In connection with the new ditch
from the airport the county court
rnaay morning went out on a
road running east from the pave
ment near the Texaco oil plant and
agreed to allow a cut to be made
through tlie county road to let the
ditch through. In turn it was
agreed the city will put in a bridge
and make a fill. The ditch now, it
is stated for a distance is dug so
close to the county road It was
feared some of it might fall away
and the cut through the road and
bridge Is made necessary.

PRINCIPAL WOLF
ATTACKED IN CLARION
An anonymous attack directed
against Principal Fred Wolf of the
senior high school, printed In the
student opinion column In the Fri
day issue of the Clarion, high school
publication, brought the retort from
the high school head that a letter
written by a person who didn't have
sand enough to sign his own name
was not worthy of consideration.
According to Wolf there is no stu
dent at the high school registered
by the name of Lawrence SuUi-
van" which waa the name signed to
the letter.
The letter accused Wolf of exer
cising authority over Salem high "ai
in olden days a king did over his
providence," and criticises severely
his method of handling the secret
society situation.
To assist wheat Growers, the
Spanish Government Is purchasing
three months supply of flour In
Spain tor the Spanish Army.
