BOUNDARIES OF
NEW SCHOOL
DISTRICTS FIXED
The district boundary board to
day adopted a map and approved
an order fixing the boundaries of
the five districts of the county
which In turn will comprise the
new non-high school district which
In Itself will be made up of all of
the non-high school districts of the
county. This district will have
charge of administering the county
high school tuition fund law and
transportation of high school pupils
and wui nave power to levy tne
tax for these purposes. The func
tions are to be handled by a board
01 live directors, one each from tne
five districts outlined by the dis
trlct boundary board today.
While the new law does not go
Into effect until June 9, the first
election of the five directors is to
be held June 19. By a strange
quirk the law provides that notices
must be posted 20 days before the
election, but Inasmuch as this
would be Impossible this year the
court Is proceeding to get the stage
all set to go ahead as soon as the
law Is In effect. Residents of non
high school districts may become
candidates for directors by filing
petitions carrying 30 or more quail
fled signers. The board members
stated today these petitions could
be prepared ready for filing as soon
8 the law goes into effect and by
outlining the various districts can
didates will know from what dis
tricts they will runT But, even
though the big district is divided
Into five smaller ones ,ail of the
voters In the big district will vote
on all of the candidates The small
er districts were laid off obviously
to spread the membership of the
board out over the county rather
than having it all come from the
most populous section.
The districts were mapped off so
as to nave all as nearly as possible
of the same population. It Is shown
that the Mt. Angel section has the
largest population of any non-high
school district of the county.
It was necessary also In making
me map or tne live districts to
follow school district lines In all
cases. So to meet the two require
ments the county is considerably
cut up in creating the five districts
but Inasmuch as all the voters vote
on all the candidates boundary
board members said this would
make little difference as long as
requirements of the law were followed.
JIMMY'S WIFE
WEEPS IN COURT
Miami, Pin., March 21 OT Weep
ing as she told of her efforts at a
reconciliation with James J. Walker,
Mrs. Janet Allen Walker testified In
her divorce suit today that the
former New York mayor left her
four years ago and had refused to
return.
Mrs. Walker testified emphatically
that she was not seeking alimony.
She said her husband has con
tinued to contribute to her living
"He has never Deen anything but
kind In that respect," she said.
Mrs. Walker wept frequently as
her attorney, A. Frank Katzentlne.
questioned her about details of her
married lire.
She broke down momentarily
when she told of her wedding on
April 11, 1912, and again when ques
tioned about her separation in
1928.
"Have you ever made efforts al
reconciliation?" she was asked..
"I certainly have," she replied
"but even this winter when I beg
ged him to come down here, he
refused."
After she had concluded her
brief testimony, two real estate
dcnlcrs, Louis P. Snedlgar and J,
J. Pretwell, Jr., testified they had
known Mrs. Walker through real
estate dealings with her, nnd that
tney had never seen Mr. Wtirctt
her Miami homes.
Illation and submission of initiative
proposals.
On the final day the- substitute
bill went back to the house where
the change to amend the dales
was rejected and a conference com
mittee was appointed. At mlamght
of the final evening of the ses
sion, only about an hour before
sine die adjournment the confer
ence committee met and went over
the bill section bv section. It an
proved the change in the title re
garding Initiative measures.
Perusal of section one of the bill
drew to the attention of the con.
ferces the fact that It provided for
tne submission of constitution
amenumens and measures by the
legislature and such measures as the
referendum was Invoked against,
but that the section Itself did not
mention Intlatlve proposals. The
ommlsslon was talked of and an
amendment to correct It agreed
upon.
The amendment does not, however
appear In the engrossed bill and a
comparison of the report of the
conference committee with the en
brossed bill today reveals that the
amendment was not written into
the report as filed with' the clerks
of the house and senate.
As it stands the special election
act provides in the title for the sub
mission of Initiative measures but
does not do so in the body of the
act, although there is nothing in
the wording of the act prohibiting
the submission of initiatvc proposals.
unomctai opinion expressed about
the captol is to the effect that the
intent of the legislature to Include
initiative is expressed sufficiently in
tne title.
In the event that the opinion of
the attorney general Is adverse and
the secretary of state declines to
certify the repeal proposal to the
county clerks for a place on the July
ballot sponsors for the repeal peti
tion plan to mandamus the secre
tary of state to submit the proposal.
Continuation Of
Referendum
From Page One
Cornoyer, In charge of petition cir
culation in the Willamette valley.
The approximate total of 48.0W
signatures to the petitions were ob
tained in five days of actual circu
lation. Whether the repeal measure will
appear on the July ballot or be
held over to the general election of
November, 1934, hinges at '.his
time upon the ruling of the attorney
ney general, whose opinion as to
the provisions of senate bill S56, en
acted by the recent legislature to
provide the special election, has
been asked by the secretary of state.
Yesterday tho secretary of state
receipted for the repeal petitions
and accepted them upon the con
dition that tlie election act made
proper provision for initiative mea
sures. Technical deficiencies In the elec
tion act, due to careless amending
during the rush hour of the cir-sing
night of the legislative- session, have
caused the question to be raised as
to whether or not initiative meas
ures may be submitted at that
time. In the original house bill tail
ing for the special election the date
was set for June 6. When it got
over to the senate the revision of
laws committee, in order to give
legal the voters to invoke t)ie ref
erendum upon measures enacted
by the legislature, advanced the
date to July 21.
At the same time the committee
voted to revise the bill, or rather
to substitute the redrawn Bynon
bill, senate bill 360, to provide that
initiative measures also might be
submitted. To this end they
amended the title of the Bynon bill
to specifically provide for the in-
INVESTORS IN'
SECURITIES TO
BE PROTECTED
(Copjrifht, 1933. by United Prcu)
Washington, March 21 (LP) Ad
ministration advisors are rushing
work on a securities control bill to
protect the Investing public against
blue sky ' stocks and bonds.
As soon as the details are com
pleted, possibly next week. Presl
dent Roosevelt will send a message
to congress asking immediate pas
sage.
This federal protective measure
will cover both foreign and domes
tic securities.
It is expected to
1 Require full publication of the
names of promoters, the amount of
their bonuses and commission, and
the full extent of their flnuncial
interests.
2 Forbid any concealment by
promoters of material facts or cir
cumstances surrounding llw secur
ltles ortercd.
3 Place responsibility . for full
disclosure of the facts upon the
promoters.
4 Require refunds with Interest
or cancellation of contracts where
misrepresentation Is disclosed, with
out requiring fraud to be proved.
o Make those Issuing false or
misleading Information liable to
criminal prosecution for obtaining
money under false pretense and
likewise liable under conspiracy
statutes.
The draft Is being perfected for
the president by Huston Thompson,
former chairman of the federal
trade commission. In that capacity
he gained intimate knowledge of
the methdds used by unscrupulous
stock ana bond promoters.
Daniel Roper, secretary of com
merce, and some of his assistants
have been associated with Thomp
son in working out the proposal.
The president's advisors are draw
ing inspiration from drastic feat
ures of the British companies act
of 1929. However, they will go
much further, including foreign se
curities which are nto covered by
tne British act. Under this act a
British peer, Lord Kylsant, one of
the leading shipping men of the
empire, was sent to prison on charg
es of misrepresentation to investors
in ins company.
The purpose of tills measure Is
to save American investors from a
repetition of the losses, running
probably into billions which they
suffered through worthless foreign
Donas ana pyramided stocks. It
would not be retroactive so as to
reach those Involved In Insull.
Krueger or numerous worthless for
eign Issues.
But It would reoch a future case
like the flotation some years ago
of an issue of Peruvian bonds by a
banking house whose own experts
had warned that default on the
issue was almost certain.
It would also reach a future case
like that of the bank which after
discovering that its Cuban sugar
loans were bad, floated a stock is
sue to the public and from the
proceeds balled itself out.
LEGION PLANS
MOBILIZING IN
EMERGENCIES
Organization of a strictly emerg
ency committee whereby every
member of nearly 1000 members of
the American Legion can be con
tacted and rushed to meet any civic
emergency was authorized Monday
night at a meeting of Capital Post
No. 9. Commander Allan Carson
will appoint a committee of five
to work out the details.
The proposed plan provides for
the selection of a chairman in each
precinct, who will have the tele
phone numbers or street address
of every member of the American
Legion In his district. In event of
any emergency of any nature the
precinct chairmen would be notified
in a lew minutes and within a com
paratively short time, hundreds of
ex-service men would be available.
Attention to the plan was directed
particularly at this time as a result
of the community service rendered
by the American Legion In the
uauiornia earthquake area. The
men would be available for nnv
similar disaster, such as fire, flood,
uprisings, penitentiary breaks, etc.
The projejet has the approval of
ponce onicers.
"The American Legion is facing
the greatest crisis In its history
and there never has been a time
when membership is needed as at
present," Carl Moscr, state depart
ment adjutant, told the post. "Pour
teen years of efforts on the imrt.
of the American Legion have been
erased by congress which has denied
veterans and their dependants the
rights they enjoy." Moser told
the post that no Information had
been received from national head
quarters relative to the nurnortcd
statement in the press from Na
tional uommancler Johnson, in
which he requested posts to en
dorse, through resolution, the mo-
grnm presented by President Roose
velt.
Installation of Klngwood post at
West Salem, March 31, will call a
large delegation from Salem, with
the drum corps to make a formal
appearance. The post also went on
record as approving the stand taken
in congress by U. 8. Senator Fred
crick Stelwer and Congressman
James Mott relative to veterans' affairs.

This would make room for the
many new items always comina
out, and thus will not let the prem
ium list get too long. He added
that payment of livestock premiums
to out of state exhibitors with ani
mals not applicable to Oregon would
be eliminated If his plan Is ap
proved. Canby Free of Debt
Celebration Held
Canby, March 21 (A1) Financial
independence was declared In Canby
yesterday. Flags waved, bunting
floated on the breeze and crowds
cheered as Mayor H. A. Dedman and
City Treasurer John Eld burned the
last municipal bond. More than 600
persons from outlying communities
participated In the celebration. In
a letter to the city Governor Meier
eulogized Canby for having paid all
bonds before maturity.
UTILITY'S ANSWER
PLEADS BANKRUPTCY
Motion has been filed bv attor.
ncys for the Central Public Service
corporation in the case brought
against it by Sarah M. Hewitt In
which It asks a stay of DroceedinM
on the ground that the corporation
was adjudicated a bankrupt on
March 8. 1933. The affidavit filed
by Clarence J. Young, attorney for
the company, says It will probably
un m unys irom tnac date before a
trustee in bankruptcy mav be an-
polntcd for the corporation and that
the attitude of the trustee concern
ing continuing the defense of the
case cannot be ascertained until he
is named. The affidavit also states
that the greater part of the evidence
for the defense will be in deposi
tions which have to be taken in
Chicago and there has not been
time to secure them.
In an answer affidavit Isham ft.
Smith, attorney for Mrs. Hewitt,
asks that a trial date be set which
will give the defendants time to Dre-
pare their defense. He says in his
affidavit the case is brought for re
cession of ontract relative to pur
chase of stock and for damages In
consequence, that the basis of suit
is fraud by the defendant in induc
ing the contract.

Quick! Stop
That COLD!
Don't Let It Run Beyond
the First Stage!,
A cold ordinarily goes through
three stages: the Dry Stage, the
first 34 hours; the Watery Secre
tion Stage, from 1 to 3 days; and
the Mucous Secretion Stage. To let
a cold run beyond the first stage Is
inviting danger.
