resident of Yoncalla, whose barn
was destroyed by an Incendiary
fire yesterday morning about
o clock. .
Three weeks ago Cooley narrowly
escaped death by his chance dis
covery of a quantity of dynamite
wired to the truck which he was
scheduled to drive on a road job.
The explosive had been wired to
the motor in such a manner that It
would be detonated by switching on
the engine Ignition. Fortunately
Cooley raised the hood of the truck
to inspect the motor and found the
dynamite.
As the truck was the property oi
Fred McCord of Oakland, the offi
cers had been working on the the
ory that the death plot was directed
against McCord rather than Cooley,

barn switched the efforts to find
some possible enemy of Cooley. The

and Is expected to aid In the In
vestigation. FOREIGN WAR VETS

Associated Charities
Report Shows Extent
Of Aid To Unemployed
A business handling more than $3,000 in seven months
is a fairly respectable business in these days of empty pock
etbooks and red ink ledgers. It is because business condi
tions are In the present shape and
that unemployment rs rampant,
that the report of this particular
business totals up as it does, in
the report of the Associated Chart
tie from November 1, 1031, to May
31, 1933, prepared by the secretary.
Mrs. Mae Carson Young, the books
show that $3,448.25 in money has
been received into the relief or
ganization's collars, and relief work
estimated at $3,938.43 given the
needy of Salem and vicinity.
Impossible to estimate in aoi-
lars and cents Is the amount of
good will, of cheerful cooperation,
of Interested advice on personal
problems and of constructive sym
pathy not only from the Associ
ated Charities staff to those In
need of help, but among the peo
ple calling for assistance toward
each other.
It Is a matter of cooperation, for
the needy asking assistance at the
Charities office gladly turn In and
do the few little tasks asked ot
them, such as cutting wood, help
ing in tlie soup kitchen, putting up
food for next winter s use, mend
ing and cleaning garments donated
through the Charities, and general
sewing. Aside from help given the
organisation at Christmas time
with street kettles, and some sew
ing and repair work, the only work
done for groceries is on the wood
pile. All clothing Is given without
work being required.
During the seven months, the As
sociated charities received 3.5o0
from Community Service; $74495
in donations from other sources;
$130.80 from sales of wood, lumber
and brick when men working for
the Charities pulled down some old
buildings; $12 from room rents, and
$10.50 paid for use of the truck.
Overhead lor tne seven montns
were: For salaries, cook $uo, sec
retary $650, truck driver $120; rent,
office and woodyard, $175; elec
tricity. $16.62; water, $19.55; office
expense, $2525; telephone $2425;
auto expense $152.32; miscellaneous
including roofing for house, voois,
hardware, etc., $12.82; totaling !,
326.81. A resume of relief work done
during the seven months shows
that groceries valued at si.wa.uo
were distributed: 4148 arucies n
clothing valued at $705.15, 96 loads
ot wood valued at $22225 and 79
articles of furniture valued at
$70.85 were given to those in need.
The numbers of families assisted
were: During November, 131; De
cember, 173; January, 147; Febru
ary, 138; March, 110; April, 80;
and May, 137.
Through the soup kitchen, the
Associated Charities does a valuable
service in taking care of transients.
Each transient was asked to cut
three sticks of wood for bis meal,
and from November 1 to May 31,
5213 meals were served transients.
All nersons receiving meals were
requested to register, but some did
not do so, so the number of meals
served was larger than recorded.
Twenty dollars a month Is paid to
the soup kitchen cook, and the
kitchen each day requires about 20
pounds of bread, a pound ox cotiee,
35 pounds of potatoes, 10 pounds of
beans, two and a halt gallons oi

toria, that the Job be given to Tom
Mahoney of Portland. This is the
first intimation that tne maepen-
dent-republlcan forces of Governor
Meier might be seriously interested
in having a hand In organizing the
state committee, as much of the
governor's strength has been at
tributed to the manner In which he
has held aloof from party politics.
Thompson. Roman and Manoney
were active workers for Meier in
the last campaign and were promi
nent among administration forces
attending the last session ot the
legislature.
Organization or the democratic
state committee will be accomplish
ed In Portland on Saturday of this
week, and It is expected that ef
forts to unseat Carl Donough, pres
ent state chairman and staunoh
supporter ot Franklin D. Roosevelt,
will be unavailing. Donough's re
election Is being opposed by certain
ot the bourbon group that has al
ways fought Walter M. Pierce, but
so far his opponents have not set
tled upon a candidate showing any
promise of being able to defeat
him.
The antl-Pierce forces feel that
Donough Is too close to Pierce, who
besides being the national com
mitteeman Is also the party's nom
inee for congressman from the sec
ond district.

FARLEY PLEADS
FOR HARMONY
IH PARTY RANKS
8prfng Uke. N. J, July 31
James A. Farley, chairmaa of the
democratic national committee,
made his first speech of the MS
presidential campaign today, plead
ed for party harmony and attacked
the republican platform as an In
strument of meaningless platitudes
and Jughandle paragraphs.
Aonreasing tne New Jersey demo
cratic state committee, the new
chairman mentioned the fight ot
Alfred E- Smith against the candi
dacy of Franklin D. Roosevelt and
added that the one hope of the op
position was that "our sturdy war
riors would nurse their
disappointment and sulk in their
tents during the campaign."
"You know and I know," he said,
"the vanity; the futility of any such
expectation. One by one without
exception the chiefs of the forces
that fought Franklin D. Roosevelt
nomination have come forward and
saluted the victor and pled gov
themselves to his support.".
Reports that Mayor Frank Hague
of Jersey City waa In eclipse be
cause of his unsuccessful fight for
Smith at the convention were char
acterised as "rubbish" by Farley
who went on: "The governor knows
no foes In the democratic party.
He would be strange character In
deed if he saw nothing In his
nomination or election for I am
as certain that he will be our next
president as I was that he would
be the candidate of the party but
an opportunity to punish those who
sought the nomination for another
man."
