"With or without off etui to friends or foet . I sketch your world exactly as it goes." Byron' . Defends Brain Trusters President Roosevelt in his Yale speech defended the 'brain, trust" and said that the use of brains in government Iwould continue. He said: Ability rather than politics enters into most choices made In Wash ington. I can't tell today the party affiliations of most of the responsible people in government and it is a mighty good thing I can't. While there lias been a certain amount of ribald laughter about the use of brains in government it seems to me a good practice. We are going to call on trained people. The president added a strong support of congress which e declared represented a cross section of opinion more rep peseittative than any single group, educational or otherwise. There is a popular prejudice against college professors because as a rule they are theoretical rather than practical and oftimes go off on tangents in support of hobbies. Their function is one of research rather than administration though there are exceptions. As a rule they are far better informed than politicians who have little conviction and veer jith the wind. Roosevelt however, listens to the professors as well as to the politicians and business men and forms his own opin ion. When the professor's theories do not work out satis jfactorily he abandons the experiment. And experience has lproven that the responsibilities of office modifies the pro fessors views, as m the case of Tugwell. The Relief Crisis Federal Relief Administrator Harry L. Hopkins insists that Oretron do something for the relief of indigent unem ployed and cease throwing the entire burden on the federal government. Orefron he states, has received more ana con tributed less than any of the commonwealths, and he threat ens a curtailment of federal largess. In his message to uov- ;ernor Meier, Mr. Hopkins says: I wish at this time to make it perfectly clear that this administration does not feel that it should carry the entire cost of unemployment relief for state of Oregon and I must insist that satisfactory arrangements to this administration must be worked out immediately whereby state of Oregon will defray its fair share of cost of unemployment relief in Ore gon. I am prepared to continue present arrangements for a reasonable time until you can have opportunity to work out these arrangements but in no case do I feel that this should bo longer than August 1 of this year. The rebuke is well merited, for the state has failed to function. The legislature appropriated $3,000,000 from ex pected liquor funds,, but to date only $44,000 has been turned over and none of it distributed. Meanwhile Uncle Sam has been pungling up three-quarters of a million a month, a total of about $15,000,000, the state only $29,000 and counties but $630,000. Oregon is asked to contribute a third of the expendi tures, not an unreasonable request. The problem is one that will have to be met in some way. The discouraging feature is that a portion of the unemployed not only refuse to work but resort to violence to keep others from working and do all possible to retard recovery, evidently convinced the govern ment will continue to pension them in idleness. News Behind The News By Paul MaJton uMIl IMUL MA! Believe It or Not Nudist colonies in the east labor under natural disad vantages as compared with those in the Pacific northwest. ,The Milwaukee Journal relates initial experiences at Wiscon sin Dells where a one hundred acre tract or woouiand para lisu about Mirror lake was donated by a Wisconsin man and a group. of Chicago nature enthusiasts took possession: Joyfully they threw off their hampering clothing and. Innocently gleeful as little children began to romp about the greensward. They Just had so much funl The cares of the world were discarded with thelr con ventlonal aarments and thev frolicked and gamboled, pure of heart. But suddenly a strangely worldly expression of petulance appeared on the face of one child of nature. "Drat it!" he said, or sometning, and sat down abruptly to begin anexamlnatlon of one foot. And then came other howls and other squeals and the strange spec tacle of devotees of the sun god standing on one leg like storks, while with feverish fingers they attempted to pluck the torment from their bodies. In shade or sun was no surcease, and paradise, Infested with sandburs, came tumbling round their ears. The beautiful woodland tract was cov ered with the scrubby, sharp-spined, actively malevolent little plants. We have no sandburs as yet anyway in our Oregon forests, so the attention of children of nature is respectfully called to our superiority in nudest paradises. We have of course those accompanying natural blessings of poison oak, foxtails, brambles, ants, etc., which are also in the east, but if one goes high enough in the mountains, even these are escaped, and there are only sharp rocks and pebbles and hid den roots to toughen the feet. It is one of the "believe it or not" paradoxes that while so-called civilized people are engaged in a mad nudistic , scramble of disrobing, savages in other lands are just as ex citedly donning clothes for bodily protection to escape infec tions, cuts and bruises and wrenched toes. So while the nud ists are stepping back toward savagery, savages are stepping forward to civilization. Ihere ought to be sonio reciproci ty, so those who don't wnnt clothes can supply those who do. .Young People Will Gather At Turner Sllverton Carl Loron, Dot-rue Davis, Rita Halm and Doris Sim eral were appointed a committee of four to attend the youni people's conference of religious education lo be held at Turner the week follow ing the state convention of Chris tian churches, and will be from the first through the seventh of July The Sllverton Christian Sunday school will bear half the expenses of the young people during (lie week. Among the numerous Instructors of the week are C. F, Schwander of Portland, Joseph Warner of Mc Mlnnville, Guy Drill of Salem and Bex Dallas of Albany. Mt. Anget Raymond Fisher left Monday for Camp Lewis, Wash., where he will spend two weeks be fore returning to his home hi Ket chikan, Alaska.

There Is hardlv a man on the In side at the war department who does not believe that Major-Oen-eral Foulois- re ceived unneces sarily rough treat ment from the house military committee. They feel gen erally that the case has more be hind it than a simple effort to impose justice. For one thing, Foulois has always acted rather in dependently with congressmen. He made lno enort to piay pontics with them, as most government officials do. He even criticized tills same house committee once be cause it did try some logrolling In the selection of a certain air field. In fact he blocked the com mittee's efforts. That circumstance certainly did not encourage the committee to spare the rod when it had a chance to flay him. More important, however, is the political aspect. You can never make war depart ment officials believe that the committee rendered a free non- political Judgment. All the dem ocratic representatives are up for re-eiection tnis year. The failure or the air corps to carry the malls win be an issue that they must answer. The simplest possible an swer will be that they tried to fire tne fellow who overestimated the army's ability to carry the malls, rnat clears them. The committee is denying it was influenced by such motives. It can point out that the republican com mittee Joined in the scalping of r-ouiois, wnicn is true, But they would have a hard time convincing a Jury about their mo tives, as long as the results of their action will be to free them selves politically. War Secretary Dern is not particular friend of Foulois. His final Judgment may be accepted as non-partisan, frivately he Indicat ed to friends before eolnir over the record In detail that he thought me committee went much too far. An impersonal opponent of Foul ois is cnier of Staff MacArthur. He and Foulois have been conduct ing a natural inside battle between the air service and the general staff about the merits of the air service in national defense. Of course MacArthur can sav nothing oiuciauy aoout tne matter, but you win una mat ne let tne word drop to rnenas not long ago that if he had been asked whether the air service could carry the malls he would have made the same af firmative response Foulois did. What really convinces the war aepartment crowd In favor of Foul ois is the fact that the only serious charge against him is that he fail ed to follow the directions of con gress in awarding contracts. That is iunaamentany true, out It was also true of Foulois' predecessors. Tne army air people think they know how to buy planes. They like, for Instance, to get bombers from tne Martins, pursuit planes from. Boeing, etc- because each manufacturer Is a specialist In his own particular line. Under competitive bidding they might get some bombers from sub marine manufacturers which wculd perform like submarines. The only Important Issue involved is whether the air corps officers favored certain manufacturers for less patriotic reasons. No one be lieves they did. The war depart ment group has the utmost confi dence In Foulois' honesty. If there Is anything wrong with him, they say, it Is overenthuslasm for the army air corps, which Is hardly an indictable offense. The White House felt more harsh ly toward Foulois than anyone else, because he failed to live up to his promise to carry the malls. Nevertheless there is. every rca son to expect that the White House will deal less harshly with Foulois than the house committee did. Those who know the Inside at the interstate commerce commission believe a general reduction hi rail road passenger fares will be order ed before long. They expect It to be a rattier strong reduction, pos sibly even eliminating the Pullman urcnarge. The flat passenger rate is now 3.0 cents a mile. The commission might go as far as cutting it to cents. The commissioners are supposed to be somewhat irked because some of the eastern railroads refused to cooperate on a rate reduction and plan to take matters In their own hands. That Is why they ordered the recent Investigation of nassen- Rer fares. Light killed S. B. 3817. That Is the nameless bill which passed the senate and was on the verge of passing the house before anyone found out what It was about. It would have given congressmen the right to borrow from the home loan and farm credit tills. When congressmen generally found out about It, they saw to It that the bill was blocked; It was a little too raw to stand the llaht uf publicity. That also explains the failure of the senate to pass the house census bill, which was merely lo give Jobs to census takers who vote right in the November elections. Ruettgers Family Re-union Is Held Sublimity A family reunion was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Ruettgers Sunday. All of the family were present at the dinner, Those present were Sr. M.

Continuation of Arbitration Prom Page One ion Steamship Co., representing employers, both in San Francisco. She said the only point holding up settlement of the walkout was the question of hiring nans. "Will you submit the one point still in dispute, namely control of the hiring halls, to arbitration oy an arbitrator of the United States department of labor?" her message said. "I earnestly recommend this to the consideration of both employ. era and employes in the Interest of iustice and hi the public's interest. "An agreement was reacnea on all other matters in dispute and for the preservation of orderly civil, economic and social life, I urge you to accent this. The resolution passea by con gress in its closing days author- izes and nrovldes lor tnis particu lar type of voluntary arbitration of anv point or points. "I give vou my fuu assurance tnac the person to act lor tne aepart ment of labor will be lair, Honor able and practical and the decision will be in the publics interest. Miss Perkns' reference to tne con- zressional act means the adminis tration labor disputes bill which nrovldes for appointment of a me diation board with power to arbi trarily settle au disputes between labor and employers. she also has threatened to in voke the act to avert the threatened steel strike. San Francisco, June 21 (IP) Of ficials of both sides of the contro versy indicated today that tney do not believe secretary oi iaoor rxu ih Perkins Is fully Informed of the status of the longshoremen's struts, which she asked be settled by lea- eral arbitration. Emnhatlc comment on the sugges tion of Miss Perkins came from W. J. Lewis, district president of the longshoremen. The Washington nispatcnes mui- cate Miss Perkins is not fully con versant with the situation,'' said Lewis. "She apparently is not aware of the stand that the grievances of all unions must be settled before the longshoremen can return to work. 'Another thing that would have to be made clear is what the ae partment of labor has in mind in regard to the operation of hiring halls. If it means Joint operation, then we already know that the LL. A. is against it. The men still feel that the only settlement satisfactory to them is for the unions to oper ate the halls." San Francisco, June 21 (IP) Thomas Plant, president of the Waterfront Employers' union, today answered a telegram from Secre tary of Labor Perkins in which the asked Plant and Joseph Ryan, pres ident of I.L.A., If they would sub mit the question of hiring halls for striking longshoremen to federal arbitration. I do not think I had better dis close the contents of my message until Secretary Perkins receives It," Plant said. Ryan said he had not yet received a telegram, but he said "Tills Is no longer a problem for the longshore men. ' Speaking of publicity, a certain government official here Insists on getting his. He recently took a trip with President Roosevelt and was dismayed to find that the morn ing newspapers did not mention his name. He Induced his press agent to call a world-wide news agency here, asking that the omls- slon be rectified in the afternoon editions. Seattle, June 21 OP) "I see nothing in this that causes me to expect a settlement of the dis pute," Alfred Lundln, president of the chamber of commerce and chairman of the citizens' emergency committee, when informed today of the appeal of Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins for submission of grievances In the waterfront strike to an arbitrator. 'Edward McOrady, himself an as sistant secretary of the department of labor, spent 10 days talking to both sides, and reached an agree ment, which was renudlnted bv the longsnorcmen," Lundln said. "The second agreement of last week was signed hv leaders on both sides, in fact guaranteed by union ciiicis, ana was signed bv the nre- sldent's regional labor board, vet it too was repudiated bv the long shoremen. I sec no ray of hope in uie rerums move. "I think the longshoremen's un ion is now dominated by an element not even working before the strike. Joseph P. Ryan, president of the L. A. is authority for the asser tion that membership has grown irom l.uou in November to 16.000 now. This new membership, I be lieve, is Inrgely radical." RETURN TO EUGKNE Waconda Mr. and Mrs. Cotter Clould of Eugene, who have been house guests for several weeks at the home of Mrs. Gould's father, Ray Jones, left the first of the week. Mrs. Gould will visit at the home of her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. T. B. Jones In Salem and Mr. Clould will return to Eugene where he will enter summer school. PICKING NKAR END Waconda Loganberry picking has about come to a close in this sec tion. Most patches were exception ally fine tills year but many were not picked due to the low price. Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Brundrldge have a 12-acre field which they did not pick. Waconda Mr. and Mrs. Fred Eckrngren haw returned from a motor trip to Roseburg where" they were guests at the home of Mrs. Eckengren's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mundt. John Enrlght had charge of their farm during their absence. LUMBER GUT BY AUTHORITY OF NRA CODE Washington, June 21 (IP) Lumber production for the third quarter was reduced 15.5 percent from the cur rent quarter by the lumber code au thority today. ' The total was set at 3,845,000,000 feet, with 2.170,000.000 for softwoods and 675,000,000 for hardwoods. The softwood divisions were assigned a production of 10 percent except the three largest West Coast Lumber men's association. Southern Pine and Western Pine. These latter three took a reduction of about 14 percent. The curtailment was partly due to the fact that production totals have been consistently kept above the probabilities of consumption, the code authority said. The log quota for the west coast logging and lumber division was fixed for all purposes at 1,110,000, 000 feet. The lumber allocations in millions of feet: Softwoods: Cypress division 39; northeastern division 72; Appalach. ian softwood group 16; northern hemlock division 54; northern pine division 32; redwood division 88; southern pine division 1100; west ern pine division 633; Tillamook burn area 40, (salvaging operations following August fire). Hardwoods: Appalachian and sou thern hardwood subdivision 4745; Northern hardwood subdivision 93.5; northeastern hardwood subdivision 46.8; north central hardwood subdi vision 33.4; walnut subdivision 6.7; mahogany and Philippine subdivi sion 13.4; miscellaneous hardwoods 6.7. Continuation of Brain Trusters From Page One ties, however, is the task of find ing a nominee acceptable to all of the factions they hope to conoUiate and ween away from the regular nominees, and of drafting a plat form agreeable to all and offensive to none. Conferences 'with repre sentatives of unemployed groups re veal that tentative platform pro posals are not sufficiently far reaching to be satisfactory, whUe proposals to liberalise them at the expense of taxpayers are meeting with opposition from more stable and conservative elements among the farmers. As for candidates, there are those who strongly favor Senator Peter Zimmerman under any conditions. Others quality their support of Zim merman with the declaration that be must cut himself loose from QUI- Slaughter-Tompkins influence to be satisfactory. Charles M. Thomas, public utili ties commissioner, qualifies with those who are solely interested in public development and distribution of power, but is too conservative for the advocates of state owned banks, and his sympathy with pro posed radical tax policies has not been demonstrated as sufficiently deep-rooted. Then, too, the mechanics of or ganization and putting the machin ery Into smooth motion is trouble some. The selection of an assembly chairman agreeable to all and able to keep the assembly ship on an even keel Is no small problem, and the Job of finding a key-noter able to put across the idea behind the Independent movement is proving even more difficult, according- to re liable Information. It was during the 1032 campaign that they and Professor A. A. Bene were principals of the group close to Mr. Roosevelt tnat were faceti ously denominated "brain trusters.' The term recurred repeatedly in congress, without any notice from the administration. But the president himself brought it up at New Haven. "While we have heard a certain amount of ribald laughter about the use of brains in government," he said, "it seems to be a good practice. It will be continued. We are going to call on trained people." Senator McNary, the republican leader, rejoined today: I think a little brains ought to go along with every administra tion. I like a "brain trust' rather than a brainless one. There are a lot of fellows in the senate brainier than Tugwell." Senator SchaU (R.-Mlnn.) was reminded of what Lenin and Trotz- ky said when they sovietized Russia. They first asserted "brain" would run the country, he said. "And later they announced they would embark on a 'live year plan. Tne 'five year plan' of tne Hus sions failed Just as the Roosevelt 'double dear will lau." His fears were not shared by Senator Bone (D.-Wash.). Since business prides itself In employing brilliant university men, he 'It is the wise thing for the gov ernment to do. It's a startling and novel doctrine that a highly edu cated man in public office may be come a menace. What the merits of some individual may be is a horse of "another color." Ogden, Utah, June 21 (JP) Senator Hiram Johnson of California, paus ing here between trains on his way home from Washington, added his comment to the debate over the brain trust by declaring he Is not frelghtened by men with brains, It is a man without brains In high position whom I am afraid of, the senator said. No one in the administration right now is working beyond a 50 percent efficiency because of wear iness from long hours and concen tration over a long period on diffi cult problems, he declared. Senator Johnson said he thought the new deal is on the right track and will succeed generally. He had nothing to say here about his Cali fornia political plans. Continuation of Oregon Politics From Page One party movement prcdoomed to failure. They are being made strongly cognizant of an antagonism to the movement among certain influen tial leaders In the grange and oth er "progressive" organizations, which is based upon a growing conviction that members ot the committee signing the call for the assembly are but dummies for other influ ences behind the scenes. They are finding It to be Im possible to cover up the motivating influence of the Glu-Slaughter- Tompklns-Btirke clique behind the movement, and are drawing tne fire of those who resent this group's domination. They are finding difficulty in curbing the radical enthusiasm of those who would scrap old party andldates entlrelv and put a com plete ticket In the field from can didates for governor and congress down through the list to members the legislature. They are finding that their own activity is stimulating staunch dem acrats and republicans in the or ganization from which they, hope to recruit their strength to counter operations In behalf of Congress man cnanei H.

SUIT FILED FOR THIRD SHARE IN M'NAB ESTATE San Francisco, June 21 (IP) Gav in Lippl, 21, bid Wednesday for I one -third share of the million-dollar estate of the late Gavin McNab by alleging that he is a natural son of the lawyer and politician whose fame and power extended far beyond the city of San Fran cisco. The suit created a sensation when it was filed in the superior court here by Lippl's counsel. In the complaint were charges that the famous lawyer recognized Llppt as his son; made provision lor Mm and nig mother, now Mrs. Marie Marraccini, San Francisco, during McNab's lifetime; and left the youth a "concealed bequest of $20,000 In his will." In seeking a one-third share Lip pi brought action against Mrs. Wil ma McNab, widow of the attorney. and a score of legatees, asking a trusteeship for an estate already distributed. McNab died in 1927. The keen legal mind of the at torney apparently anticipated such claims on his estate, for in his will there Is a clause which reads: "I am aware how frequently chil dren or descendants appear after death claiming heirship to such as leave property. Should any such child or children or descendant or descandants establish themselves In court as such child, children, de scendant or descendants of mine then to each and every such child I leave the sum of $100 and no more." McNab specifically stated in his will, however, that he had "no child or children and no descendant." Continuation of Cupper Finds -r-From Page One West Salem Mrs. P. H.

This report was given the lea gue's exeeutive committee yesterday. Cupper's report says that, from available information, it would ap pear that 14 wells, or 12 in addition to the two already in operation, could reasonably be expected to fur nish 5600 gallons a minute, or slight ly In excess of that now furnished by the Oregon-Washington Water Service company's pumping equip ment. The cost of putting down the wells and furnishing the equipment, says the report, would be approximately $60,000, the annual cost of power for pumping $10,000, and deprecla tion, based on total cost, 7.5 percent a year. Further it says: "In connec tion with the revamping of the sys tem to meet the requirements of the Insurance underwriters, which Baar dc Cunningham have estimat ed to cost $300,000 to $350,000, It Is estimated that an additional cost to make the revamped system conform to the use of wells would be $50,000." It Is found the well water would be cooler In temperature and more nearly pure, tnougn narder. in quality than from any other avail able source. The city during each of the years 1932 and 1933, the report states, used approximately one billion gallons of water with a maximum demand of 5,460.018 gal lons a day. It has been estimated, says the Cupper report, "that the cost of bringing In the Bantiam water would be, as estimated by Baar & Cunningham, $1,168,000, reduced by PWA grant to $854,000, with Inter- est at 4 per cent. The deprecia tion has been assumed to be 2.5 per cent per annum. 'It has been assumed tnat tne maintenance, apart from the power charge, will be the same for the wells as for the Little North Fork project, and that a grant of 25 per cent of the total cost can be secured from PWA. ... It must be remem bered that the maximum capacity of the 14 wells would be slightly more than 50 per cent of the ca pacity of the Little North Fork project."

"This indicates that the wells could be tried out for a period of two yean and then abandoned entirely with out loss of actual cash to the city over and above what it would have cost had the city In the first Instance built the Little North Fork project The annual cost of operating the wells system Is estimated at $16,000.
