FACTORIES IN
RUSSIA FAIL
TO FUNCTION
Moscow (Leaders of Soviet
Russia Thursday were confronted
with evidence of several hitches in
their industrial program. Moscow
newspapers published accounts of
instances in which the Industrial
machinery had failed to function
smoothly.
The newspaper "Za Industrlall
zacla" published a disclosure of
"unsatisfactory" conditions In the
farm machinery factory at Rostox,
which is one of tlie largest In the
world, and asserted the poor work
done In assembling machines
amounted to a "catastrophe." The
paper said the superintendent of
the assembling department had
been discharged because he gave
out false production figures. He
claimed 438 machines were ready
for shipment, whereas Investigation
showed there were only 20.
On May 25, for example, investi
gators at the Rostov plant found
not a single mowing machine or
binder had been turned out al
though the program called for 100
mowers and 110 binders. There
also has been a serious drop in the
production of other machines.
Some of the trouble is attributed
to sabotage, but it is generally ad
mitted unskilled workers are to
blame.
Za Industrlallzacla is the organ
of the supreme economic council
and is generally considered an in
terpreter of the five year plan.
Moscow newspapers also point to
the failure of the transportation
system to fulfill Its program for the
latter part of 930 and the first
quarter of 1931. Transportation au
thorities blame the factories for
failure to supply materials, while
the factories blame the railways
for falling to bring them fuel and
other necessities.
The superintendent of the "Red
October" metallurgical plant at
Stalingrad has been charged with
failure to carry out urgent oroers
for the railways and will be tried
soon In Moscow.
The industual program for the
first quarter called for steel plants
to furnish 117,825 tons Ol rails, dui
they provided only S7 per cent of
tills total.
"Gudok," a newspaper devoted to
railwav matters, declared Thursday
that conditions had not improvea
in the second quarter of this year.
as only 22,916 tons of rails were ac-
tuallv suDulied during April as
against 74.000 tons which were call
ed for by the program. This news
paper also asserts the rate of pro
duction of rails this year Is 30 per
cent less than that of 1930. This
situation, together with the general
ly dilapidated condition of rolling
stock, locomotives and road beds,
niukes the transport situation loom
as one of the most serious the So
viet regime has thus far encount
ered. EUGENE STILL
SEEKS HOSPITAL
(Continued from page 1)
tion of the national soldiers' home
which Is to go to Oregon, was made
clear to the United States veterans-
board Thursday by a enamrjer oi
commerce telegram sent to Gen
eral Frank T. Hines.
This message followed word re
ceived here that the veterans' bu
reau office in Washington has been
flooded with form telegrams. The
chamber indicated these stereotyp
ed messages do not picture the
situation accurately.
A. F. S. 8teele, secretary ol the
chamber, declared that Eugene Is
supporting Roseburg, but that If
Rose burg should not meet all the
requirements of the board, Eugene
wants to be given next considera
tion. Eugene has offered sites for
the home.
The chamber telegram follows:
"It Is our understanding you
are being flooded with stereotyped
and form telegrams instigated by
Roseburg people but apparently
coming spontaneously from all
Darts of the state.
"Knowing the process you or
course realize we could annoy you
by having countless number of
similar wires sent in behalf of Eu
gene. This we will not do and wish
our position to continue to be this:
That if Roseburg meets all th re
quirements of the board we are
content to see It chosen. If not, we
believe Eugene has everything to
recommend It and that the most
pelnstaklng investigation the board
can make will develop this state
ment to be a fact.
"We wish our offering to rest on
its merit and do not want to bol
ster It with propaganda."
In addition, Steele made this
statement: "Eugene lias not with
drawn Its support for Roseburg.
but If for any reason Roseburg is
not acceptable to the board. Eugene
has placed Itself In a position to
advance its claim as a proper lo
cation." BLUE LAW HLATEN

OLD KATE DIES
AT AGE OF 88
London (LP) Kathleen McNeil.
known merely as "Old Kate" to
racing enthusiasts Is dead at the
age of 88.
For nearly three quarters of a
century she sold race cards at the
tracks and was a familiar figure to
tens of thousands. King George
and Queen Mary both knew "Old
Kate" and frequently had stopped
to chat with her.
She was as well known at the
races as Lord Lonsdale or Steve
Donoghue, the Jockey. It was her
boast that she had witnessed 61
derbys. The king bought his card
from her on derby day, as did the
royal princes, most ambassadors

CHAPLIN WILL
MAKE PICTURE
London (LP) Charles Spencer
Chaplin, who recently refused to
participate In a "command perform
ance" before King George has ac
cepted an offer from the British
government to devise ana Direct a
British talking motion picture, the
Dallv Sketch said Thursday.
The Daily Sketch said the accept
ance was a result of conversations
among Chaplin and representatives
of the foreign office In Paris re
cently.
The British ambassador in Paris,
Lord Tyrell, proposed that Chaplin
direct a film to be called "After the
Mayflower," designed to be Mt epic
of the Pilgrim fathers. Chaplin,
however, rejected the proposal and
offered one of his own.
He said he would write and direct
a film to be called "London," deal
ing with the romance and mystery
of the city. The proposal was accept
ed, the Dally Sketch said. The paper
understood that as a result It was
likely Chaplin would be awarded
"an honor."
It was recalled that Chaplin re
cently refused to appear at a "com
mand performance'' in London, re
plying that he was a film actor and
never appeared on the stage. He sent
a check, however, for $1000 to the
fund for actors for which the per
formance was given.

which they and Hal Hoss, secretary
of state, are members. What eith
er of them proposes is, from an
appearance, presented by prear
rangement and understanding.
Where administration Issues are
at stake Hoss might as well not
be nresent.
Yet when Hoss Is not nresent ne
Is the target for pointed criticism
of his absence and Inference of
neglect of his duty.
No observer at board meetings
need be endowed with mystlo pow
ers of discernment to observe that
Hoss Is the target for a poliucal
alliance that Is constantly cam
paigning against him, and against
his possllbe reelection to the office
of state treasurer next year.
Wednesday he was made the tar
get for a biting attack by Gov
ernor Meier In a public statement
calling attention to the fact that
Hoss did not Join with the governor
and Holman in voting for a resolu
tion asking the resignations of all
of the employes of the board of
control. Tlie meeting to consider
the resolution was called without
notice by the governor, and Hoss
was not advised until the meeting
had convened and the governor
read the resolution to htm over
the telephone.
That such action was contem
plated, or what remedies were pro
posed by the governor and Holman
had never been discussed with Hoss,
and when he asked what the reor
ganization program was he was told
by Meier that that would develop
later.
Thursday morning the board of
control met again with Hoss absent
on a short vacation, uovernor
Meier demanded to know where the
missing member was and whether
or not he had been advised of the
meeting.
Carle Abrams, who remains sec
retary of the board until next Mon
day, replied that he had advised
Hoss of the meeting and that Hoss
had told him he could not be pres
ent but was witting that the board
should consider and pass upon any
thing necessary In his absence.
Governor Meier men criticizca
Hoss for his absence, declaring that
"this Is not baby play" but business
of the state which should be attend
ed to. He added that early In the
year he advised the members of the
board that he would be In 8olcm
and always available fot board
meetings on the first four days of
each week. He said this schedule
still stood and asked that the other
members go on record as to when
they would be ready for meetings.
Holman said he would suit his
tune to the convenience of Governor
Meier.
The governor almost Invariably
leaves Salem Thursday afternoons
for Portland and remains there the
rest of tha week attending to per
sonal business.
The Clarion annual, high school
year book, will be ready for dis

PORTRAIT OF
POPE DESTROYED
Rome UP) Destruction of a por.
trait of Pope Pius XI by fascist
students during an attack on a
Catholic publishing house cast new
fuel Thursday on the smouldering
resentment of the Vatican toward
the Italian government.
The young blackshlrts stormed
the headquarters of Clvllta Cat
tollca Wednesday night, stoning
the windows and committing other
depredations. They tore an oil
painting of tlie pontiff from the
wall, carried it into the streets and
trampled on It, crying meanwhile
"Here Is a traitor to his country.'
Heaving copies of the book "II
Papa" (the Pope) out of the win
dows, they took them to the Piazza
Colonna, near tlie foreign otflce,
and consigned them to a bonfire,
together with copies of Osservatorc
Romano, the paper which has been
publishing accounts of purported
fascist indignities.
The march on the publishing
house was without interference by
the police. Later, authorities dis
persed the students as they broke
into small groups and began par
ading the streets, shouting depreca
tory remarks against tlie church.
Tlie Incident was expected to lead
to an exchange of notes between
the Vatican and the government and
perhaps to complicate an already
strained situation.
The fear of further disorders caus
ed the Italian police Thursday to
station guards at all approaches to
Vatican City. The guards were so
few In number that they attracted
Jittle notice. Carabinlerl were posted
at each end of all bridges, apparent
ly to give the alarm If fascist stud
ents should start a march on the
Vatican.
Church authorities were greatly
concerned over the violence. It was
taken for granted vigorous represen
tations would be made to the Italian
government, If this has not already
been done.
