Prospects for an era of

building projects in the offing are:
A new capitol to cost approximately $3,500,000.
A new federal building to cost a minimum of $265,000.
A new or remodeled court
$175,000 up.
A Pacific highway grade crossing to cost $300,000.
$1,000,000 building program for public schools,
A $25,000 improvement in the National Guard armory,
Instead there should be a new
a civic auditorium.
In case of the purchase by the state of the Willamette
campus as additional capitol grounds, there would of course
be the construction of a new group of university buildings
on a new location. While this is not assured, it is a possi
bility.
Governor Martin is right
Salem to secure a beautiful
the new capitol and postofficc. And County Commissioner
Hewlett is right when he suggests that the court house
should await the adoption of plans for capitol and postoffice
and a new building be erected to harmonize with the archi
tectural plan of the two structures.

vantage of it and build for the future.
Hazards of the Air
The death in an airplane
two of America s most famous airmen, Wiley Post, round
the world flier and Will Rogers No. 1 air passenger, cowboy
humorist, movie star and beloved character, again empha
sizes the hazards of the air. Post ranked among the most
skillful and resourceful of fliers and Rogers had more flying
miles to his credit than anyone not an aviator himself.
Yet the hazards of the ah' are not greater than those of
the auto, and growing less annually as the science of aero
nautics advances. It is every bit as safe in the air as it is on
a city street, and will soon be safer. The pedestrian is in as
great danger as the flier.,
Post was not a stunt flier, and most of his recent ef
forts have been pioneering along useful lines, such as ex
ploration of the stratosphere as a weather safety zone for
aviation. Previously he had made two record breaking
flights circumnavigating the globe, only to meet his end on
a leisurely vacation trip in Alaska.
Rogers has long been an aviation enthusiast having
flown over most of the countries of the world. In recent
years he had discarded even the auto for short trips for the
plane and his brief syndicated daily accounts of his trips did
much to stimulate aviation travel.
The First Modern Physician
Scientists and philosophers the world over are celebrat
ing the 800lh anniversary of the birth of Rabbi Moses ben
Malmonides, famous medieval philosopher, theologian and
physician, best known by the abbreviated name of Rambam.
The city of Cordova, where he was born, has officially de
creed a general celebration in his honor.
Maimonidcs ranks as the leading scientist, physician
and clinician of his time as well as the greatest of Jewish
philosophers. He became court physician to Raladin, the
Saracen and is portrayed in the character of Al Hakim in
Scott's novel, "The Talisman."
Maimonidcs left 20 works on medical science as well as
numerous theological and philosophical treatises. He studied
disease from the etiological and casual point of view, as well
as examining the pathological changes produced by disease
and stressed the importance of preventative lnedicinie and
hygiene, of diotectics, of rest and physical exercise, and the
value of fresh air and sunshine.
Disregarding the traditions, he championed simplicity
In pharmacothery and recommended simple prescriptions,
emphasizing the curative power of nature and the abuse of
drugs. He treated wounds in an up-lo-dnte manner. He
combined the practice of medicine with medical research and
can he justly called the first modern physician.

READY MADE WIFE
.BY CORALIE STANTON,
flYNOPSMr Laurie preU-nd-d to be Rex
Moore ' widow to save hrtlt end her
inter QUdys from ft deiperste iltuttlon.
Now she mutt keep up trie pretense to
save Rex's Job with Mark Albery, since
Rez has returned after two years. Rex
has sons to the rescue of some talkn
airmen In Africa; while he la gone Albery
Middenly declares his love for Laurie, wtio
la his secretary as well as Rex' "wile.'
Chapter 18
A CALLER
Albery released her; she stared at
him like a person in a dream.
"I am sorry," he said, and in i
miraculous way he was hlmsell
again, and the incredible scene was
blotted out, and he was smiling at
her, a rather sad little smile.
"It was unpardonable, Mrs. Moore,
Do please forgive me, and forget
about itl To show my feelings like
that was taking a shameful advant
age of you."
Laurie was nonplussed. He had
suddenly brought an atmosphere of
tragedy Into what might have been
a sordid episode.
"I'm sure you didn't mean it," she
murmured.
"That's the sad part of it," he re
plied gravely. "I did mean It. As I
said, you came too late into my life.
I am no longer young, and you arc
the woman I have dreamed of al
ways. The woman I could have
loved. But I ought not to have told
you so."
"Oh, Mr. Albery!" It sounded al
most stupid, that whispered ex
clamation. But Laurie was both
horrified and in a way flattered
This captain of industry, whom she
had thought of as she might think
of any of the overlords of the pres
ent-day world, was telling her that
he loved her, that she was the wo
man he had always dreamed of.
She his secretary. She the girl
who had cheated him, lied to him
through two years, who had been
saved from despair and disaster by
his kindness and generosity.
Mark Albery, watching the chang
ing lights and shadows of emotion
in her face, knew that he must
abide his time. She might be un
happy, but she was loyal.
And Laurie, as she typed the let
ters in her office, made so many
mistakes that she had to do several
of them over again.
This was destined to be a memor
able day for Laurie.
When she got back to the flat
she found that Gladys had gone out
to dinner, leaving a message with
Mrs. Budd that a friend had called
for her.
"Was it a gentleman?" Laurie
asked.
"No, mum, a lady.' j
Laurie felt a fooi. but she was not
quite herself after that extraordi
nary scene with her employer.
About a quarter of an hour after
wards, Mrs. Budd came In to say
that a gentleman wanted to see her,
and handed her a card. "Mr. Gavin
Drake" was the name on it.
Laurie knew nobody of that name.
It must be some friend of Rex
Moore's.
She decided to see him.
A slim young man under medium
hemiit was shown in. Her fust re
action was one of sympathy, be
cause she saw that ho had only ono
arm.
He had yellow hair and a small,
neat moustache, and wore hcavy-
lcnsed spectacles. He greeted her
with a bow and a long smile that
expressed deferential admiration.
"It is so kind of you to see me.
Mrs. Moore," he said.
He had a pleasant voice, with a
marked accent, md a confidential,
friendly manner that was rather
appealing. His accent she recognized
with a certain misgiving.
I expect it is Mr. Moore m
husband, whom you want to sec?"
she suggested.
No. 1 am aware that Mr. Moorn
is away in his native element, and
ha.s Just a ccompl Mied another won
derful flying feat," he answered. "Of
course, I should have been honored
to meet him, but it is from yourself
that I wanted to ask a kindness.
Mrs, Moore."
'What can I do for you?" she
asked, taken aback.
"I must introduce myself. I am
Gavin Drake."
"You are from Australia, aren't
you?" she asked.
Yes, I come from down under."
He gave her a comradely smile. "So
do you?"
I wasn't borne there. My father
went out when I was quite young.'
"its like this," he told her. He sat
forward in his chair, with his one
arm, the right one, on his knee. She
thought he was rather like a ca
nary, so yellow, with his neat face
and little black, bird-like points of
eyes behind the thick glasses. "I'm
really over here on a holidny trip,
but I'm a journalist by protesston,
and I was given a roving commis
sion to represent the New Sydney
Record while I m here. And Ive had
a cable from the editor to get an
interview with you."
"With me? Why?" Laurie asked,
"My dear Mrs. Moore, you must
realize what a sensation your hus
band's return had made down there
in Australia. It's one of the most
"Yo .ho!" .yodels .Dungle. "What
beautiful trees!

dpi
dramatic things that ever happened.
And his being over there for so
many months getting ready for hia
flight, and your romantic marriage
why, you must realize that an in
terview with you will be of the
greatest interesti Such a wonder
fully human story, Mrs. Moore!"
Laurie felt a little chill.
"But you'd much better wait un
til! my husband comes back." she
said. "He can't be many days now."
"Of course, I shall be thrilled to
see him on his return, if I am still
here," replied Mr. Drake, with an
ingratiating smile. "But it would be
kind of you to give me a little story
to cable over there. You see, it
means so much to me. I've had
rather a bad time.
Without actually doing so, he
called her sympathetic attention to
his empty sleeve. "And just now, of
course, you must know that he is
the hero of Sydney, now that they
know of his miraculous escape from
death. I may say it was the biggest
sensation for years. Won't you just
give me a message to the people of
Sydney, Mrs. Moore."
"I don't know what you want me
to say." Laurie was at a loss.
"Well, first of all, a message of
greeting," he said glibly.
"I shall be delighted to do that."
"Then just a few details about
your romantic reunion. The thrill
of learning that your husband was
alive. And then, if I may ask you, a
few words about your marriage. You
see, it was such a secret romance, so
few people knew anything about it."
Laurie went colder still.
"Oh. there's nothing to tell about
that, Mr. Drake!"
"But I assure you it's Just what
people would love to read about,
your secret wedding just before the
hero went off on the flight that was
supposed to end in tragedy. You
can't Imagine what a hero Rex
Moore is hi Sydney. And nobody
knows anything only rumors, jtiht

that Rex Moore was married to a
girl a short time before he took off.
Where were you married, Mrs.
Moore?"
The chill went up to Laurie's
brain. It felt frozen.
"I'd really rather not say anything
until my husband comes back."
The young man's smile grew even
more ingratiating.
"But it would oc such a kindness
to me. When he docs come bactt,
there'll be hundreds of newspaper
men 'round him."
Laurie's wits deserted her. On no
account must the young man sus
pect anything.
"In Warrabiilo County," she said
recklessly.
"Oh indeed, how interesting!" Mr.
Drake took out a little note boo'x
and a pencil. Through her confusion
Laurie noticed how skillful he was in
his movements with only one arm.
"I know Warrabiilo County a little
myself. Was it m Warratora town
ship Itself that you were married,
Mrs. Moore?"
Why wasn't Rex Moore here! Why
hadn't they discussed this hideous
possibility when he was here?
"No, in a little outpost near where
I was staying, not far from my old
home. "
"What was it called, Mrs. Moore?'
"It had no name that I know of.1
'Church, chapel, or registrar,
please?" The young journalist was
tievastatmgly business-like.
"There was a Minister visiting,"
she said. "He married us. I've Io-.
gotten his name."
"Was there a church?"
"No, a little tin hall, where thev
held services,"
"What date was it?"
"Do you know, I've forgotten, ex
actly. It was all such a rush, and we
hurried back to Sydney. But it was
slmewhere about three weeks before
my husband left Sydney on his
flight."
"The date of his departure was
March 17, two years ago," the young
man reminded her. "So it would
have been three weeks before that
about the end of February."

BASIL BLACKETT
KILLED IN CRASH
Oicsspn, Orrmany. Aug. 16 (fPi
sir Basil piuiiott Blarkett. British
authority on gold and economic
problems, was fatfllly injurd yester
day in an automobile-train crash 10
miles from here Sir Baeil died In
the university clinic of what physi
cians diagnosed aa a severe hemorr
hage resulting from Internal injur
ies. Injured with him was a woman
school teacher from Marburg, an old
friend, who originally waa errone
ously identified as his wife.
Sir Basil's automobile was struck
by a train on a grade crossing thia
morning. Death camo shortly after
3 p.m.
Sir Basil in 1914 came to the
United states on a special mission
In connection with exchange prob
lems arising out of the World war.
In October, 1915, he was largely in
strumental as a member of the An
glo-French financial mission to the
United States, in ra'smg a 8500,
000,000 Anglo-French loan.

News Behind
The News
By Pan) Malloo
Washington, Aug. 16 The fastest
backward political flip-flop on rec
ord, bar none, was that of Presi
dent Roosevelt's tax leaders In the
senate. One day they were for the
LaFollette bill to soak everybody
and the next they voted for the op
posite scheme, which would hardly
dampen anyone.
The charge is being made that
Mr. Roosevelt engineered the
switch. Also that the moans and
groans of senators Borah and Nor
ris caused the LaFollette plan to be
dropped.
These suspicions are plausible.
There may be something in them.
But what actually happened waa
this:
A gentleman who happened to be
peeking In the window at the secret
session of the finance committee
noticed that the LaFollette plan
was approved by a suspiciously in
formal method. Senators did not
vote officially as they usually do,
but merely ' raised their hands in
approval or disapproval, thus leav
ing no record of how they voted.
Bushes But far more amazing
was the fact that the chairman
counted 19 hands voting, whereas
the window peeker could plainly see
only about a dozen senators were
present and none of them voted
with both hands.
The explanation apparently is
that Chairman Pat Harrison had
proxies for several absent hands In
his pocket, and he counted them.
The absentees authorized Mr. Har
rison to vote them, but when they
read in the newspapers what hud
been done they becan to get cold
feet. Especially chilling was the
editorial comment.
Two or three of them complained
In effect, that, gosh, it was all right
to pull a little strategy like that to
keep Senator LaFollette quiet, but,
after all, the LaFollette plan was
terrible and they would not like
to get caught voting for it, even
with absent hands.
Therefore it was arranged that
new deal's faithful friend Senator
Barkley (who also may have heard
from the White House) would move
a reconsideration. Four senators
conveniently absented themselves,
permitting LaFollette to lose by
the narrow margin of 8 to 7. On
this occasion the vote was legiti
mately recorded by names, not
hands, and irretrievably announced.
The moral, dear children, is that
machine work is always done by
hand in the senate. Also, you niny
safely assume that a bird in the
senatorial hand might as well still
be In the bushes.
Friendly Tip Scouts for the sen
ate lobby investigators heard about
10 days ago that the elusive How
ard Hopson was arranging to be
found by the house investigators, in
preference to those of the senate.
The scouts were tipped by some
one inside the utility world that the
missing utility man realized that
he could not remain missinfc for
ever, that he would not mind be
ing discovered by the house com
mittee. If he could only be saved
from the senate.
Whether such an arrangement

CUNDOWN'
DOING TRICKS
By Mary Graham Bonner
The cat had disappeared as quick
ly as he had appeared. The maei
clan laughed at the surprise of the
duck and crow and Willy Nilly.
"I've been practicing a great many
new tricks and brushing up on some
old ones." said the magician. "I'm
leaving this house within a short
time to go on a world tour. I've sold
the place and I'm getting ready to
go now, packing slowly so as not to
be too much rushed."
"T suppose you couldn't do me an
other favor?" asked Willy Nilly.
"I haven't done you any favor at
all," replied the magician. "I'm
afraid you'll have to havo some
treatment that is other than a trick
for your ears."
"Yes,' agreed Willy Nilly. "I'll
start In using the adhesive tape
again. But I wondered if you
wouldn't come over with me to
Puddle Muddle and give m show,
like a dress rehearsal, for my animal
friends?
"We've had many Important vis
itors In Puddle Muddle, and I could
drive you over there in my automo
bile Two-Ways.'
"That would be splendid," the
magician replied. "I'd like to go
over all my tricks once before I
leave, and there is nothing like an
audience. I'll come at once."
So they all got into the automo
bile Two-Wals and back they start
ed for Puddle Muddle.
And on the way over the magi-
clan did trick after trick for them.
But he would not tell how these
wore done. "I'm not a magician if
I don't surprise and amaze people,"
he said.
Now they were arriving in puddle
Muddle, "Do the ear trick first,"
Willy Nilly whispered.

Captive A New York business
man was held prisoner In the de
partment of agriculture for three
and a half hours the other day. He
strolled In on business and was mis
taken by an attendant for a mem
ber of the crop reporting board.
Ushered into the board room, he
discovered the board arriving at a
final figure on the Important cot
ton estimates. Once he was in, the
door was locked behind him. He
objected, saying he had an engage
ment with a government official,
but to no avail. He was told that
no ono would be permitted to leave
that room for any purpose until the
cotton estimates were announced.
It was then 11:30 a. m. He waited
until 3 p. m., missing lunch as well
as the appointment.
Note Some years back a clerk at
the crop board got rich flashing
crop reports to the outside by mak
ing signs with a window shade,
These were taken down by a con
federate across the street. It was
not illegal then, but congress since
hus made it so.
Note Congressmen have evaded
every effort to prevent them from
keeping non-working reluttves on
their payrolls, but Representative
Mitchell of Tennessee believes he
has found a way. He is planning
to put a petition for his anti
nepotism bill on the speaker's desk
next your before election. If mem
bers do not sign up, the voters will
know. Mitchell has found one
family with six members on the
federal payroll for a total of $23,000
a year.
President Roosevelt was surprised
to learn the other day from a mem
ber of congress that the senate and
house office buildings are air-
cooled only in spots. The president
has never been m thcru.
Signs have been erected in the
street alongside the hite House ex
ecutive offices reading: "Don't
blow your horn." They were put
up the day after the Rhode Island
election.
