When the vote on Dr. Kerfs elec tion was called for at Tuesday's board meeting following an execu tive session lasting several hours, Burch declined to vote- Mrs. Pierce and Sammons were reported as vot ing against Kerr.

Hudson Etwex Studebaker Rocknc Dealer Salem, Oregon Open Evenings MWTOCK STRESSES NEED OF RED CROSS It Is an obllxaUon of citizenship to continue the American Red Croa, aa an active and Uve organl latioia, especially in times like the present, declared James K. Mc Clintock. national official of the Bed Cross In addressing a group of Salem citizens at the Marlon hotel today during the noon hour. rhe speaker, who was Introduced by Judge Rossman of the supreme court, detailed briefly the activities of the Red Cross in tbe distribu tion of some 40.000.000 buahela of wheat and flour to needy families during the summer months. Wheat, sufficiently to care fore the needs of the nation during the coming winter and spring months, la in process of muling now, he said, while thousands of bales of cot ton are being converted Into cloth ' with which to clothe persona who are destitute. - It takes the combined work of citizens of the nation to make the Red Cross function aa It should, McCUntock said, adding that there la no super man In Washington who can take all the responsibility for the organization. Immediately following the signing by President Hoover of the wheat bill on March 1 of thai year, re quests for flour started to pour in from all parts of the nation, said the speaker. Problems of transpor tation and milling were successful ly solved, the millers cooperating wholeheartedly in the movement and without profit. He character ized tbe distribution of the wheat and flour aa tbe "world's greatest barter." Six hundred sacks of the flour were distributed in Marlon county while 300 sacks were sent to Polk county. Whether the cotton doth will be made Into clothing by large manu facturers or whether the women of the country will be asked to rally as in times of war as volunteer gar ment makers has not been deter mined. The speaker said, however, if the latter plan is adopted there will be 10 to 15 times more cloth available. He urged economy among Red Cross chapters in Issuing requi sitions for clothing since not more than tl worth of cloth will be avail able for each needy person. Josephine Albert sang two solos during tbe luncheon. She was ac companied by Carolyn Parker. BIRTHDAY PARTY GIVEN BRANDESON In celebration of his (3rd birth day, close to 50 persons.
