BANDIT ADMITS KILLING PAL ON GAMBLING SHIP Long Beach, Cal., Sept. 31 UP) James Walsh, 22, alias Norman Lor raine, ex-convlct, was arrested to day and made a full confession, po lice said, to the killing of Buell Dawson, 25, aboard the gambling ship Johanna Smith, last night. Police quoted Walsh as saying Dawson and he were once cellmates at Leavenworth federal peniten tiary. Through a bizarre coincidence, Walsh, for 12 hours had been be lieved the victim, Instead of the killer, and was arrested within a few feet of a freedom that was made secure by the confusion of Identities. Tift two ex-convicts boarded the ship with the Intention of "stick ing ud" the croupiers, police said Walsh confessed. Tney quoted nun as saying he killed Dawson In a drunken quarrel "because Dawson was a yellow rat who was afraid to shoot anyone". There was a partial plea of self defense in the story, police said. He and Dawson discussed the holdup. Walsh was -quoted as say ing, and Dawson told him he would "go into it, but wouldn't stand for shooting anyone, unless mayoe a COD". "I told him I'd shoot anyone," Walsh was said to have confessed. "I said 'I'd even shoot you; you're nothing but a yellow rat anyway.' "With that he reached for his gun, and I shot him In the chest. He doubled over like he was in pain, and I shot him three more times to put him out of his misery." GO FOR RELIEF Washington, Sept. 21 Wi Presi dent Roosevelt today ordered the purchase of surplus food stuffs and staples by the government to be turned over for relief work. MONMOUTH PLANS INVADE PORTLAND Monmouth Monmouth's popula tion will be greatly depleted Friday night when its football fans turn out en masse to witness the Wolves In their opening game in Portland against the College of the Pacific team from Stockton, Cal. The loss of 13 lettermen from last year's squad has not disheartened the normal school's colorful coach. With eight lettermen to form the nuc leus, the weakened squad has been reinforced by last year's reserves, likely looking material from Port land's interscholastio league, and prospects who -' hold out standing records on teams within the state. With a session of rigid diet to augment their physical condition, and a daily pounding on the grid iron under Wolfe's adroit tactics, the squad should be well equipped to wrestle their opponents. Continuation of Portland Appeals From Page One 11c works act. Press dispatches say that the committee in a resolution sent to Governor Meier protested against the methods used by the highway commission in distributing the money over the state, and that the $75,000 allocated for the construc tion of approaches to the yet-to-be-constructed Tualatin tunnel be di verted to other Multnomah county projects upon which work can be started immediately. The resolution, copies of which were sent to President Roosevelt and Ickes, states that 60 per cent of the unemployed In the state are In Multnomah county and that that county has ( been discriminated against. The commission has never Insist ed that the $75,000 allotted to the tunnel approaches be used for that purpose. It was set up In the con struction program as an allocation to Multnomah county, R. H. Bal- dock, state highway engineer, said nere yesterday and will be spent on some other project In that county if It can thus be used to better ad vantage. What the consequences of Port land's latest protest move will be is uncertain, but it Is certain that the upstate counties will present a united front In opposition to the appeal. There is a general opinion that one thing could result from intericrence with the commus on bv the governor the resignation of the entire Highway commission. In view of the fact that the com mission's allocation of the money has already been approved by the district engineers of the bureau of public roads, the ' director of that bureau and the public works board In Washington, it is not expected mat tne appeal will be heeded bv President Roosevelt or Secretary icaes.

REMEMBER THE DATE SEPTEMBER 22ND REMEMBER THE PLACE 210 STATE ST. COLEMAN TELLS OF DANGERS OF COMMUNISM Dangers and advantages of the communistic system of government as it is being operated in Russia were outlined by President Norman F. Coleman of Reed college, Port land, before members of the Salem Lions club Thursday noon. The ruthless exercise of power being ex perienced by a small group of men Is probably the greatest danger of the Russian government as it exists today, the speaker said. Another drawback to communism, Dr. Cole man declared, was the bureaucratic Inefficiency and buck passing. No body cares to be responsible for making a decision. Education is being looked to as a means of placing the country upon a par with other world powers. How ever, no one wants to venture an opinion as to how many years this will take. Russians are living on the barest of necessities, Dr. Coleman said, and as a result there Is some grumbling going on. However, the government's system of employment and taxation places virtually all on an equal basis lh the final analysis. He said that the unemployed of the United States were living better thon those em ployed In Russia. Everything considered the speaker said that Russia's experiment was well worth watching and while he believed the communists would have a disturbing Influence upon the bal ance of the world, at the same time it was apt to be enlightening. Dr. Coleman in prefacing his re marks, said that no one could give a true picture of conditions in Rus sia t.i&out making an extensive study. He visited Rusla during European trip during the summer.

In the absence or additional information the city was marking time as to procedure un til official details are received. This is expected by airmail before the close of this week.

"Everyone has a right to a hear ing and they'll be granted one. If they ask for it," Cooney said.

Watch for the uu The finest and latest equipment available will be installed in this new school. Included in this will be the latest new multi-dryer that will dry 14 heads at the same time. some other persons that the entire $2,000,000 was not approved, Kow-tz' attitude is that the city should, without hesitation, grasp the oppor tunity now offered. He thinks such an opportunity to acquire a munici pal plant will never be available again. Senator Charles L. McNary will attempt to get the approval in creased to (2,000,000, but apparently there is no great hope here that he win succeed in this. Kowita was pleased that $406,000 of the $1,500,000 was offered as an outright grant from the government, relieving the city oi that amount lor repayment and Interest pay ment. A far smaller grant was ex pected. The news irom Washington has opened the way for negotiations to open anew with the Oregon-Wash ington Water Service company for purchase of its Salem plant. By a ruling of the public works adminis trator not over 15 per cent of the loan xan be used for purchase of an existing plant. Kowitz believes this means IS per cent of the whole $1,500,000 approved rather than 15 per cent of that amount, minus the $406,500 grant. If he is right this would make $225,800 available for the purchase, and some other arrangement would have to be made for the remainder of the purchase price asked by the water company, or that may be agreed on between the company and the city. . city bonds xor tnat purpose arc being talked among the officials. On account of the present reduced market price of municipal bonds, which are around 86, It probably would be necessary to make a con cession to the company to cover the margin between that price and VALLEY OFFICIALS CONFER TONIGHT Willamette Valley Officials asso elation,, an organization which has for its purpose the training of ar biters for interscholastio and inter collegiate contests, will hold a meet lng of Its members at Parker's to night at 7:30.
