PROH! PROBERS
RECESS AGAIN
Washington (LP) Prospects for
an early report on prohibition were
considerably lessened Monday wnen
It was Indicated the Wickersham
law enforcement commission ma'
take another recess before submit
ting Its findings to President
Hoover.
Although scheduled to resume
deliberations Monday following
five day recess, tlie commission did
not meet because of the inability of
several members to return here In
time. Nearly all the 11 commis
sioners had spent Christinas at
their homes.
It was announced the commis
sion would resume hearings Tues
day. It was doubtful, however, if
more than two sessions would be
held this week. This, coupled with
reports another short recess might
follow, made it appear likely no re-
port would be made until at least
several weeks after the first of th
year. January 1 was the last 'dead
line" tentatively fixed for submls
sion of the report.

CONSOLIDATION
OF HEALTH JOBS
HERE IS RUMORED
Count Judare filegmund Mc.4ay
declined to discuss a report to the
effect that tha offlos of county
physician would be In afreet discon
tinued and the duties of that of
fice turned over to Dr. Vernon
nouirlas- assistant county physician,
following tlie vacancy caused by
the death of Dr. W. can ion emiw,
for some years county physician.
Dr. Douglas had charge of the
health work In connection with the
health unit while the county phy
sician gave actual medical treat
ment to patients coming under the
county poor list and requiring free
medical attention from uie coun
ty. In addition there were other
duties involved such as examina
tion of patients for Insanity and
similar activities for which a phy
sician was needed.
'We haven't discussed the mat
ter of a successor to Dr. Smith,"
stated Judge Slegmund when Quer
ied in regard to it. He stated there
was no foundation for a report as
far as he knew that Dr. Douglas
was contemplating resigning and he
said Dr. Douglas had never inti
mated such a tiling to him.
It Is known, however, that the
matter of combining the work of
Dr. Douglas and that done by Dr.
Smith all under one head and turn
ing It over to Dr. Douglas has been
given consideration In the mind of
at least one member of the county
court and some such solution of
the county physician problem has
been discussed as a possibility from
time to time among court members
during the past year or two.
Dr. Smith had Intimated a time
or two before his death that the
state of his health might result m
his resignation before any great
length of time and as a result the
matter of a successor or some other
disposition of the office had been
casually referred to. It is Quite
certain when the members of the
court get together to discuss the
matter of a successor for Dr. Smith
that the plan of consolidating the
work with that of Dr. Douglas will
be brought up for consideration.

COUNTY HEALTH
UNIT MEETING
TO TALK BUDGET
A special meeting of the county
health unit executive committee
will be held Monday night in the
health unit on ices on North High
street to discuss and make final
arrangements for the 1931 budget.
Apportionment will be made to the
different Hems with the knowledge
that receipts for the coming year's
budget will be around $4,000 less
than during 1930, the difference be
tween the 1930 ana the IPS! sub
sidy provided by the Common
wealth Fund of New York City.
The city of Salem, the county
court, and the Salem school boar a
have continued the same appropri
ations as during 1930. There is i
probability that the Marlon county
health unit may receive small
subsidy from the state board of
health, it being understood that
the state board is expecting Co re
ceive a subsidy from the United
States public health service in
which several counties and the
state board will share.
Changes in policy and In per
sonnel will be considered at the
meeting Monday night Cutting
down on immunization clinics, on
travel expenses ad supplies will
probably be effected in the budget
by the committee members.
Tlie resignation of Miss Agnes
Campbell as nursing supervisor to
take a similar position in a Cali
fornia city is expected to keep the
nursing ataii intact as it stands
with Miss Campbell's absence. No
effort will be made to fill the po
sition for the time being. Miss
Elizabeth Freeman is taking over
Miss Campbell's supervisory duties
in addition to her own field work.
According to Dr. Vernon A. Doug
las. county health officer, some ad
jusrment will have to be made in
this arrangement for the benefit of
efficient service, as a nurse is need
ed in the office to be on hand for
clinics and emergency calls. It Is
Known tnat toe dropping of one
sanitary inspector will be discussed,
but the decision rests with the ex
ecutive committee at their meeting
Monday night.
one fact that will assist In ap
portioning the budget Monday
night is that all December bIHs
are paid out of 1930 funds, where
as in former years the December
accounts nave come out of the fol
lowing year's budget.
'ine 1931 budget was made out
several months ago, but lnterven
lng discussions and uncertainties
of what the 1931 income would be
held any action on it in abeyance.

trustees for further action failed to
muster the necessary two-thirds
vote.
Although urging a general "sta
tus quo" on college football rules ss
they now are codified, Lou Little of
Columbia, chairman of the rules
committee of the association, re
ported that two changes were fa
vored by a majority of tho coaches
who responded to a nation-wide
questionnaire.
These proposed alterations are:
1. When a kick Is blocked, allow
the defensive team the right to run
with the ball. If recovered. Under
the present rule, the ball Is dead at
the pobit of recovery by the de
fensive sldo but can be advanced
by the offensive side.
i 2. Elimination of arbitrary award
of extra point after touchdown
when defensive side violates office
or other rules, with penalty to be
administered as at other times and
play then resumed. Same proce
dure to apply if offensive side Is
charged with violation.
The vote of the coaches In favor
of a new blocked kick rule was 162
to 57, on the point after touchdown
change, 208 to 71.
Chairman Little reported that
the coaches otherwise favored the
code as It stood. He took the fol
lowing quotation from Knute
Rockne's reply as a summary of the
committee's report:
"We ought to declare a mora
torium for several years on the
rules to see how they work out."
The balloting in favor of keeping
various features of the rules show
ed 182 to 89 In favor of retaining
the try for a point after touch
down, which is under attack by a
numocr oi icaaing mentors.
The present fumble rule was en
dorsed by a vote of 218 to 7L The
"screen pass regulations by 164 to
ss. tne new anui rule requiring a
full second stop, 21S to 40.
The couches were prepared to de
bate the rules Monday afternoon
before voting on the report of Lit
tle committee.

BRITISH AND
REBELS HAVE
FIERCE FIGHT
Rangoon, Burma. OP, British
troops in the Tnaxswttddf district
began a determined otfenslra Mon
day against bands entrenched la
th Jungle. Many casualties among"
the rebels were reported In first ad
tees received here, describing the
encounter as unusually fierce.
Part of the Jungle, which Is al
most Impenetrable, was burning.
The smoke from the burning lor
est hundred the drive of troops
against the rebels, who were de
ployed along a five mile front.
There were more than 1000
troops In action against about an
equal number of rebel natives who
were entrenched behind tree trunk
barricades.
The rebels were well supplied with
ammunition and apparently directed
by an experienced military leader,
whose Identity could not even be
guessed by British officials.
The extent 01 the native organisa
tion was Indicated by the fact that
they sent out women to act as spies
and report on the preparation of
the machine gun and Infantry
troops.
GREGORY TO BOOST
FOR CITY MANAGER
(Continued from page 1)
for the trimming of an trees along
sidewalks and streets for the great
er convenience of pedestrians and
motorists.
Presentation of Taller products.
both for home consumption and
outside markets, at greater advan
tages will also be urged.
'Two of the most Important de
partmcnts of the city are the fire
and police departments and I will
ask the full supprot and coopera
tion of the council towards the end
that the public may have the full
est protection to which It Is en
titled, Gregory continued. "The
chief of the fire ctepaxtment would
be thorouhgly familiar with all
buildings, their exact location and
Uie location of all fire connections
and backed by a trained crew."
In the matter of police protec
tion. Gregory believes that tha
number of patrolmen in the down
town district should be Increased,
but did not make any recommen
datlons. Traffic Is such that the of
fleers on beat should, when neces
sary, help In Its direction as well
ss assisting pedestrians across the
streets. In regard to tlie operation
of motor vehicles, he was of the
opinion that it was not as much a
question of speed as caution, with
the motorist to be educated to ac
cept the fact that the pedestrian
has the right of way at all cross
ings. Gregory stated that he was elect
ed to office on a "wet" ticket, and
accordingly will direct his efforts
towards obtaining a municipal wa
ter plant for Salem. "If balked at
one angle, we should try another,"
he said, "but roust never give up
the Idea." He vlsloned more and
better Industries with this accomp
lished, particularly manufacturing
plants utilizing various flax pro
ducts and by-products. Public co
operation with the administration
was solicited.
Mayor T. A. Llvesley, In making
his last public appearance before
the chamber of commerce, voiced a
pica for fewer demands upon tha
services of the mayor. "Your new
mayor is engaged in a business
that demands his attention and do
not ask for too much of his time,"
he said. Mayor Llvesley advocated
a city manager to direct the $17,-
000,000 corporation represented oy
the city. Mayor Llvesley said the
administration had functioned suc
cessfully under the platform on
which It was elected, pointing out
that the bridge program had been
completed and that five mora
bridges had been constructed than
were called for under the program
when first adopted. Future struc
tures should conform to those al
ready erected, he said. The $500.
000 sewer expansion program wilt
be completed In the spring and
there appears no further need for
major municipal projects In the
Immediate future, Mayor Llvesley
expressed the hope that the same
cooperation would be accorded tha
new administration that had been
given his, and Introduced the
speaker. Mayor-elect Oregoiy,
