Intelligence Need
Wool Industry
New York, Feb. 21 (LP) The great
est need of the wool industry is for
more intelligent merchandising, Ar
thur Besse, president of the Nation-
al Association of Wool Manufac
turers, told the annual meeting of
the association yesterday.
"It la impossible to continue in
definitely selling goods at a loss,"
Besse warned the delegates. "The
Industry needs a more progressive
merchandising policy and needs to
resist actively thf constant pressure
on the part of Its customers to
cheapen Its products.
"We are emoarking on a promo
tion program designed to increase
the sale of wool products. Indus
try promotion needs to be backed
by sound merchandising and by
I adequate quality standards"

INQUEST GUARDED
BY MOTOR POLICE
El Centro, Cah, Feb. 21 (LP) A
squad of motor police armed with
clubs, tear gas bombs and machine
guns, stood guard yesterday as an
inquest opened Into the deaths of
two strikers, killed Sunday in the
Imperial valley lettuce growers' la
bor war.
As the coroner's jury assembled
to fix responsibility for the deaths
of Paul Knight and Kenneth Ham-
aker, the strikers, police kept traf
fic a block from the courthouse.
Chief of Police Sterling Oswalt
said he expected no demonstration.
The jury hears strikers' witnesses
first and then removed them from
the courthouse before summoning
others.
Meanwhile all packing houses af
fected in the labor disputes were
closed under Chief Oswalt's orders
and a grand jury prepared to hear
murder charges growing out of the
fatal shooting of the two strikers.
MELON'S WEALTH
IS $97,603,005.49
Pittsburgh, Feb. 21 (IP) Andrew
W. Mellon's personal wealth was
revealed for the first time yester
day as totaling $97,603,005.49.
The figure did not include his
business holdings, such as $68,000,000
in the Coalesced company, H. M
Johnson, the financier's confiden
tial secretary, testified at a hearing
by which the federal government
hopes to collect $3,000,000 additional
taxes on Mellon's 1931 Income.
The figures were as of Dec. 31,
1931.
The figures were not concerned
with Mellon s business interests gen
erally, although It did include $20,.
000,000 stock in the Coalesced com
pany. His interests in the Aluminum
Company of America, the Gulf Re
fining company, the Pittsburgh Coal
company, and other such huge con
cerns were not brought out, al
though they long have been regard
ed as dominated by the Mellon
family.
Johnson told the three-man sub
committee of the United States
board of tax appeals that Mellon
netted $4,000 by two "short" sales
In Westinghouse Electric and Man
ufacturing company stock in March,
1931, while he was secretary of the
treasury. He made $72,000 on one
sale of 2500 shares, and lost $68,000
on another similar sale the same
month.
Inheritance Taxes
Of Varied Volume
Income to the state from Inher
itance taxes varies widely each year,
shows the report of the state treas
urer.
In 1930 a total of $970,050.44 was
taken in from this source. The nect
year It dropped to less than half,
$451,575.17. In 1932 it rose sharply
again to $603,135.57, then back to
$417,340.81 the following year.

COUNTY SCHOOL
UNIT PLAN HAS
SENATE FAVOR
Supporters of bouse bill No. 4,
the county unit plan (or school
government, gained the initial and
major victory toward Its passage
in the senate yesterday, as the min
ority committee report, favoring the
bin, was substituted for the un
favorable majority report by a vote
of 17 to 12.
Eventual passage of the measure
was virtually assured when It comes
up for final vote, probably today,
as it was pointed out before the
roll call yesterday that a vote for
the minority report was essential
ly a vote for the measure itself.
It was not considered unlikely, how
ever, that a resumption of the heat
ed debate arising on the measure
would take place again.
8enator James Hazlett of Hood
River, who has led the fight in the
upper house for all of the admin
istration measures, opened the de
bate for the minority report. He
compared the per capita cost for
schools in Oregon with that of Utah
which operates under the county
unit system, stating that the cost
in Utah was (71 compared to $103
in this state.
"The tax rate in Hood River coun
ty has been reduced since the
county adopted the county system,"
he declared. "This plan makes for
economy In purchasing of supplies,
since all must be bought from one
board.'
"I question if this bill Is the most
efficient system of operating
schools," Senator Douglas McKay of
Marion county stated. "Two of the
counties which use it have a higher
per capita cost than Marion county,
which has not adopted the system.
We have no quarrel with the plan
but we do not want to be forced to
vote on it. We have operated ef
ficiently and we wish to continue
to do so."
Senator Isaac E. Staples of Mult
nomah county declared that, "All
of us, if we understood this bill,
would consider it a vicious meas
ure. The county unit system is an
easy thing to get into, but hard
to get out from under. If you vote
on it and accept, you cannot vote
on it again for six years, and then
only after obtaining signatures of
20 per cent of the voters."
Hazlett closed the argument with
the declaration that "all this bunk
and bosh you have advanced about
the county unit system losing the
community spirit has no founda
tion. We have not done away with
a single rural school since adopt
ing the system."
After the minority report had
been adopted Hazlett moved that It
be referred to the education com
mlttee for a technical correction
before taking its place on the cal
endar.
The senate passed the following
house-approved measures:
Providing that school teachers
must be given a hearing before be.
ing discharged and further provld
lng that teachers shall be' retired
at the age of 65; providing for a
three-year teachers' training course
instead of the present two; provld'
ing more strict regulations for the
sale of narcotics, and regulating
the employment of firemen under
a system of civil service In cities
having a population of more than
5000, the question to be submitted
to a vote of the people.

WORK OF BACH
WILL BE HEARD
Portland, Ore. A performance of
the world-famous musical master
piece, the "St. Matthew's Passion,"
has been announced by the Port
land Symphony orchestra for the
Portland public auditorium Friday
night, March 8, in commemoration
of the 250th anniversary of the
birth of the composer, Johann Seb
astian Bach. The "St. Matthew's
Passion," perhaps the most impos
ing musical work ever attempted
for performance entirely with the
city's own musical resources, was
first given here in the spring of
1932.
So great was the desire to hear
this masterpiece three years ago
that two performances, each to ca
pacity houses, were given. Today,
two full centuries after it was first
given to the world, the "St. Mat
thew's Passion" stands out as one
of the monumental works of su
preme musical genius. Inspired by
St. Matthew's chronicle of the life
of the Christ, it Is said to be un
excelled in all the field of devotion
al music.
To provide a proper medium for
the performance of Bach's work, a
massed chorus, including the Port
land Choral society and singers
from the church choirs of the city,
has been assembled. The five solo
ists, as before, will be recruited
from among the city's leading pro
fessional singers. A special boys
choir likewise will augment the or
chestra, the adult chorus, and the
soloists.
The March 8 performance will be
a special added attraction of the
Portland Symphony orchestra's 24th
season. The orchestra's concluding
regular concert of the season was
given in the auditorium on Febru
ary 18.
Donald Mr, and Mrs. Vernon
Lofgren were dinner guests Sat
urday evening at the Garold Cone
home.
