identified by police as Elbert Guy
Harrington, about 19, was shot to
death about midnight by an irate
father of a young woman he had
followed from a bus stop to her
home. The father, Murray E. Soth,
57, was held for questioning by the

Soth s daughter, Eleanor, 21, iden
tified the body as that of a youth
who had whistled at her as he fol
lowed her home and who had stop
ped only five feet from the front
door. When she got inside he threw
the rays of a flashlight on her win
dow. She said she did not know his
name.

walked to where the youth was
standing by a tree. The boy turned
and Soth commanded him to halt,
When he ran Soth fired. The hot
was fatal.
Harrington lived with his mother,
Mrs. Thomas Gray, and was on his

lives.
Mrs. Gray said the lad was quiet

ing for work. He went to the ar
mory last night to enlist In the

OF NEW DRIVE
Newchang, Manchuria, Oct. 21
The Japanese army was reported
to have begun a new drive against
Chinese bandits In this area today,
starting from Talon, their hands
freed by the release of Mrs. Ken
neth Pawley and Charles Corkran,
British subjects, who reached here
yesterday after having been held
captive for a month and a half.
It was expected here that Chief
Pel Patien, head of the band which
held Mrs. Pawley and Corkran. with
his 160 followers, would probably be
captured by the Japanese.
A dramatic scene occurred when
the armored train carrying the two
captives back to safety reached
Yingkow last night. Kenneth Pawley
met the train, leaped into the coach,
hugged his wife, whom he married
only a short time before she was
captured, crying: "Tinko let me
look at you!"
He lifted her from the coach and
then handed her to her Japanese
rescuer. Captain Kawahito. for for
mal presentation to the British con
sul. The bandits handed Mrs. Pawley
and Corkran over to their rescuers
at Panshan, about 40 miles from
here. Her terrible hardships had left
their mark on Mrs. Pawley, who was
taken immediately to a hospital op-
crated by her father. Dr. Phillips, a
missionary, to rest two or three
weeks. She said it was partly be
cause of their fears that she would
die that the bandits released her,
She was fatigued and feverish from
a cold, she said.
The ransom price for the two cap
tives was about $32,000, a sum much
less than originally demanded.

A school gardener's statement that
he had seen Elliot B. Thomas, 33,
missing city school superintendent,
packing an automobile five hours be
fore Thomas dropped irom stgnt

ory today that Thomas had created
a dual personality to pave the way
for his disappearance.
J. R. Dent, tne gardener, tola au
thorities Thomas, who police said
threw his office Into wild disorder
to make it appear he had been kid
naped by robbers, that the missing
man was transferring from a large
sedan to a small coupe a quantity of
articles. Police learned the coupe
was sold a month ago to an "E. T.
Sherwood," a name authorities said
Thomas assumed.
The nardener said he met Thomas
on the school grounds later and that
the superintendent, appearing ner
vous, told him he had been helping
a woman motorist whose automobile
had stalled. The sedan was found
near Thomas' office after his dis
appearance.
Norris Stensland, sheriffs force
captain, issued orders to arrest Tho
mas on a charge of making false
statements to authorities. He said
the order for arrest was based on
Thomas' recent report to police that
his clothing and two flrenrms nnq

articles, he said, were found In the

FOR DUMPING
Portland, Oct. 21 VPi Registration
and licensing of all growers as pro
vided by law, and forcing dealers
to operate under bond, is held out by
Max Gehlhar, state agricultural dl
rector, as "the solution to the prob
lem of dumping by the Irresponsible
itinerant peddler competing with re
sponsible growers in tne slate.
Gehlhar made this statement here
last night at a meeting of members
of the Oregon Potato Growers' asso
ciation, standardization of crops, ef
fective marketing and the licensing
of potato and other produce growers
in Oregon were listed as necessary
steps in the development of the
state's potato Industry.

Falls potato Industry was described
by F. L. Ballard, county agent leader
at Oregon State college, who spoke
also of the work of development
elsewhere in the state. Arthur J.
Farmer, manager of the maritime
commerce department of the Port

REDUCED FEE FOR
AUTOS SUPPORTED
A majority of the members of
the next legislature who are hold
overs or are sure of election have
pledged themselves to support a $5
license fee for passenger automo
biles In Oregon, State Senator Joe
E. Dunne said here today.
Dunne declared he had the per
sonal pledges of 32 members of the
lower house and 25 members of the
state senate, more than enough to
assure passage of such a measure
to reduce present license fees,
Dunne further said he would go
to court to enjoin construction of
the Wolf Creek highway from Port
land to the sea, the route recently
agreed upon by the state highway
commission, should any contracts
on this project be let. He did not
divulge what his argument would
be, but he believed he could halt
construction ot the highway over
that particular route.
Organization of the next state
senate is already tentatively under
way, with Fred E. . Kiddle of La
Orande aa president, Dunne com
mented. He Indicated several com
mittee chairmen have already been
selected.
BAKER ANSWERS
HOOVER THRUST
Cleveland, Oct. 21 (Pt Newton D.
Baker, stepping into the presiden
tial campaign for the first time last
night with an address supporting
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, de
nounced the republican policies of
the last 12 years.
"I want a change, the former
secretary of war said. And I don t
think it Is possible for any repub
lican administration to muke the
changes necessary before this coun
try gets started right again.
Baker's general theme was that
the United States' present economic
situation was a direct result of a
republican policy of American Iso
lation from world affairs.
"The president of the United
States, when he was here Saturday,
Indulged in some sarcasm," Baker
said. "He said the democrats had
not learned there was a World war
in which 40.000.000 people died di
rectly or Indirectly and 300 billions
of property were destroyed. If I
had been present, I could nave torn
him of one democrat who was
aware of those facts. As a matter
of fact, the figures he used were out
of a book X caused to be written.
"But if there is anyone who fail
ed to appreciate that the World
war was a world disaster, or who
had forgotten the lessons which
that war taught us, then Presi
dent Hoover's party is responsible
for his so forgetting."
SILVER PARLEY
PLEASES BORAH
Rexburg, Idaho, Oct. 21 VP) Sen
ator William E. Borah, ontinulng
what he described as his Independ
ent campaign for "republicanism,'
told an audience here last night he
was "delighted that both presidents
now are for a silver conference."
The Idaho senator prefaced his
statement by saying:
"I see by today s dispatches Presi
dent Hoover comes out for a silver
conference."
He aso called attention to what he
said was an announcement from
Henry Ford in favor of currency ex
pansion. The senator has frequently
advocated such expansion in his re
cent talks.
"If anybody knows anything about
currency, Henry Ford ought to," he
declared.
Asked by a member of the audi
ence If the soldiers' bonus could not
be paid from expanded currency,
Senator Borah declared that if so

THOMAS URGES
FORTUNE TAX
Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 21 VP) A
levy of possibly $40,000,000,000 on
large fortunes was advocated last
night by Norman Thomas, socialist
candidate for the presidency, as the
practical means to readjust econom
ic unbalance.
Addressing a campaign audience.
Thomas recommended the levy to
"take care of the national debt, un
employment relief, and a consider
able part of the reduction of mu
nicipal and farm debts.
The candidate estimated a levy
based on a graduated scale starting
at S percent on fortunes in excess
of $25,000 and Increasing on wealth
in the higner brackets, would raise
between 46 and 67 billions of dol
lars. Raising the size of the fortunes
to be levied upon to a minimum of
$250,000 would provide from 36 to
44 billions, he said.
"The scientific liquidation or re
duction of funded debts by a capital
levy is both just and practical." he
said. "It Is Just because it would fall
equitably on all members of the
owning class as piecemeal confisca
tion or debt repudiation would not.
Economic reconstruction, Thomas
said, "requires the transfer of our
national resources, our public utili
ties, our banking system, our mo
nopolies and near-monopolies from
private to public ownership and con-trol."

NAVAL HOLIDAY
PLAN FAVORED
(OMTftebt, Mil, W call rnu
Washington, Oct. 31 (IP) The
state department Is preparing to
accept the disarmament conference's
proposal to extend the International
naval holiday until next March.
America will send a note to
Geneva signifying Its acceptance
before October 31, the date when
all replies must be there.
Extension of the holiday, which
expires November 1, Is not expected
to curtail the navy's destroyer
birDding program. It will, however,
prevent laying the keel of 10,000
ton cruiser authorised by congress
until after March 1.
The holiday Is being prolonged
In the hope that by next March '
progress will have been made to
ward a general disarmament agree
