THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 1934 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON BECK ASSAILS NEW DEAL AT BAR MEETING Milwauktc, Aug. 30 (IP) The na tion's leading lawyers were ap pealed to today to defend the con stitution against "serious ' under mining" brought about by centrali sation of power In the federal gov ernment, A number of committee reports received at the 57th annual conven tion of the American Bar associa tion criticized a tendency to usurp powers constitutionally delegated to the states. "The problem which should con cern every American lawyer Is whether the tendency towards an unprecedented centralization of power shall continue unchecked," snid a report of the committee on American citizenship headed by Rep. James M. Beck of Pennsyl vania. Beck, one of the most outspoken critics against the Roosevelt New Deal, was more caustic In his crit icisms In an interview. "The N.R.A. is absolutely uncon stitutional," he said. "It Is a flag rant interference with the Individ ual liberties guaranteed by the American constitution. I have fre quently so declared before the House of Representatives. "It has Immensely retarded re covery, destroyed confidence and initiative and scared business." Arainst the criticism stood out a finding by the committee on com merce, headed by Rush C. Butler, that "whether the national recov ery legislation is sustained or de clared unconstitutional, this com mittee Is of the opinon that gov ernment regulation of business will continue on an Increasing scale." Dean Roscoe Pound of the Har vard law school replied to attacks on the New Deal with a statement that the tendency to give wider powers to the executive branch of the government Is "a natural ad justment to our economically unl lled Industrial urban society." BIG OVERWATER SPAN HURRIED Ban Francisco (LP) Eleven and ene-half million dollars were spent In construction of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridge world's largest overwater span during its first year of construction, Earl Lee Kelly, state director of Public Works, reported today. The work has progressed speed ily and the $77,200,000 structure may be opened to traffic six months ahead of schedule, or In July, 1930, rather than in January, 1937, Kelly said.

INDIAN SENDS A MESSAGE NORTH Houston, Tex. (LP) Henry Horton, born in a wifjwam in the Oklahoma Indian Territory the year after Texas joined the Union, at 88 has asked aid in getting his claim for an Indian allotment established. As Indian as the head on an old fashioned penny, Horton, half Cherokee, told this story: "My grandfather was Jeff Moss, a full-blooded Cherokee. My grand mother also was a Cherokee. "Their daughter, Minnie, mar ried my father, a white trader named Jeff Anthony Horton, and I was born May 17, 1846. "My mother died when I was a baby, and my father joined an other trader named J. W. Flnglee. We went to about where Paris, Tex., now Is. When I was five years old my father died." Froni that time on, Horton said, he drifted here and there, working In a store for $2 per week and board, In a planing mill, as a pump repair man on a railroad, and in a sawmill. A friend wrote to the Department of Interior, Division of Indian Claims. An answer received said the "citizenship rolls of the Chero kee tribe are closed." "Horton's name does not appear on the final rolls of the Cherokee nation," the form letter from John Collier, commissioner, said, "and only those persons who are enrolled can receive tribal benefits."

"I certainly do want to see Sin clair elected," the relief adminis trator declared In response to ques tions. "He's on our aide." "You mean the democratic side?" asked a newsman.

Liberty EAGLE'S WIFE TELLS HER TALE FOR MAGAZINE Washington, Aug. 30 (IF Anno Morrow Lindbergh dips her pen In thrills and color to tell In Septem ber's Natlonnl Geographic maga zine how It feels to go globe-trotting with the world's loremost air man. Making her debut as author of vivid travelogue, Mrs. Lindbergh tells about the 1933 flight around the North Atlantic, on which she handled the wireless key. She makes her travels live again: Missionary outposts of Canada: the country dances of Greenland; Ice land, where giant conquered uie lend; Leningrad, "a beautiful city gone a trifle shoddy"; Moscow, "amazing combination of old and new." Her longest dissertation on her own clothes could hardly be called a fashion note it was over the Greenland Ice cap: . "I was wearing, in addition to woolen underwear, one thin wool shirt, one thick wool shirt, one wool sweater, wool riding trousers, sev eral pah's of wool stockings, fur lined kamiks and helmet, and over everything the hooded white blan ket Parka designed for us by Dr. Stefansson. I was quite warm ex cept for my feet, which I sat on, and. my hands, on which I put an other pair of mittens." The radio key simply signs through her story: "Being assured by radio of a safe anchorage while one is still over icy wastes Is a miracle to which there is no parallel. The comfort of It is rather like walking through a dark room, always keeping one's eyes on the light beyond in the hall." And for pure exultation, there's this passage on the hopoff from the becalmed African coast: "We're off? No spank spank spank but almost I held my breath. We're off. No more spanks. Yes we're off we're rising. The engine smoothed off into a long sigh, like a person breathing easily, almost like someone singing, ecstatically. We turned from the lights of the city. The plane seemed exultant then, even arrogant. We did it we did it!" BAD MEN GET OUT OF INSANE WARD RalciKh. N. C.
