WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1935 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON $4,000,000 FOR AGE PENSIONS SOON AVAILABLE Pour million dollars for old age pensions In the next two years was virtually "In the bank" for Oregon's aged poor today. The money will be available when President Roosevelt gets his new social security law In operation. Anticipating the president bill, the last legislature appropriated $1,000,000 for old age pensions, the money to be available when match ed by another million from the counties and $2,000,000 from the fed eral government. The maximum pension Is to be $30 per month nearly three times as much as counties are paying to day. A bill to make the latest Oregon law conform to President Roose velt's will be one of the first intro duced at the forthcoming special session of the legislature, Sen. Allan A. Bynon of Multnomah county Dog Revived 10 Times By Scientific Device Invented by Doctor Moscow, Aug. 21 ) Dr. S. S. Brukhonenko, Russian scientist, yesterday revived a dog ten times after an "incom plete death" in the presence of here for the international physio logical congress. Dr. Brukhonenko used an appa ratus of his own Invention called an "autojector" to produce an ar tificial circulation of blood In the dog's body. The lungs were extracted from a second animal and attached to a machine which mixed the oxygen from them with the blood being pumped back into the veins of the dog which was the subject of the ex periment. The Russian scientist said two possibilities were opened up by his series of experiments. The first was Continuation of British Build From page One Indemnity after the Italians disas trous defeat at Adua as well as huge sums since deposited by the emper or from the government reserves for the preservation of the empire, Menelik's dying command to his relatives was to defend Ethiopia independence at all costs, employ' irjg the fund as a nucleus. In addition the "King of Kings' has heaps of silver dollars depo sited In subterranean coffers, and as well has other metallic currency cached in the very walls and foun dations of various buildings. Meanwhile the emperor's forces stage a sham battle in preparation for hostilities with Italy, with the soldiers substituting terrifying cries In place of bullets. The emperor himself, arrayed In a smart military uniform and lion's mane head-dress, directed the mock clash, which made up in vo cal ferocity for Its lack of gunshots a necessity imposed by a cartridge famine. General Vehib Pasha, who com manded the fourth Turkish army in the Caucasus during the World war, left for Harrar to lead the fierce Somali troops. Up at dawn, as is his custom, the frail, sad-eyed little monarch was greeted with a tumultuous roar as he left his palace in a shiny new American motorcar to witness a re hearsal of a program for the days ahead. Leaden skies overhung the scene, accentuating the feeling of un reality that these barefoot, ill equipped blacks are apparently to confront one of the most modern armies in the world in a few weeks, Rain-swollen clouds, now their chief guarantee against the burst ing shells of the Italian artillery. poison gas and foot -burning chemi cals, floated above them.

Marshfield Guests At Jefferson Home Jefferson Mr. and Mrs. Lyman Patton and three oaughtera of Marshfield were guest Sunday night and Monday at the homi of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Barna.

"I am in favor of any legislation that will give Oregon the fullest possible benefits under the social security legislation," said Bynon: "and I think any pension legisla tion should be liberally Interpreted. Another bill may incrense the Oregon appropriation. The last regular session of the Washington state legislature in Olytnpla set aside $10,000,000 for pensions compared to Oregon's $1,000,000. The new set-up will relieve coun ties, it has been pointed out. Where they have been struggling to pay $11 per person, they will now have to put up only $7.50. The state relief committee will be the fmal judge of who is to receive the pensions. A man and wife both eligible for the pension will not get $60, but enough to provide a suitable standard of living. Pensioners must have lived in Oregon for five of the last ten years and resided for the past year in the county In which application Is made. The pension will not be paid to persons able to support them selves. a group of foreign delegates that It may sometime be proved pos sible to revive a human being from the effects of an otherwise fatal ac cident. The second was that it may become possible to operate without bloodshed by pumping the blood from the veins of a patient and pumping it back after the operation is per formed. He said he had succeeded in reviving dogs as much as 40 min utes after "incomplete death" In previous experiments. One of the principal problems to be solved, Dr. Brukhonenko said, is when does incomplete death the state in which the tissues are not yet destroyed turn to complete death. He said the autojector's possibilities seem limited to the period of incom plete death. Special devices to maintain the necessary pressure and temperature in the blood are attached to the autojector. In his experiment, the scientist opened the arteries of the anesthe- tised dog and pumped out all of its blood. There was a complete lack of reflex, respiration, ard pulse, and the animal was pronounced dead. Ten minutes later he applied the autojector which begain pumping blood, mixed with the oxygen from the extra lungs, back into the dog's body. After five minutes, faint heart beats were noted and the dog began to breathe lightly with its own lungs. It made barely audible moans. Thereupon, the machine was de tached and the arteries were closed, The Soviet government plans to establish a special institute for the further development of Dr. Bruk- honenko's experiments. Continuation of Building Program From page One payers ample opportunity to study the situation as it exists in the dis trict. Approximately 22 days must elapse before an election can be held after the first notice of inten tion has been published. It will take almost two weeks for the architects to complete their floor plans, while an additional fortnight is necessary for the Portland office to pass on the application.

Except for a few questions put to Chairman Plttman of the foreign relations committee and a brief speech by Senator Borah (R., Ida ho), declaring the resolution should have gone farther and absolutely prohibited American citizens travel ing on belligerent ships, there was no debate. Neither was there a rec ord vote. Borah said the provision authoriz ing the president to prohibit travel on belligerent ships by American citizens "except at their own risk" only "partially" met the problem. "If a citizen goes on a belligerent ship," said Borah, ranking republi can of the foreign relations com mittee, "to a certain extent he in volves his nation and produces a war psychology that should not be permitted " DANCER ASSERTS SHE DROWNED SON Goshen, N. Y., Aug. 21 VP) Dorothy Sherwood, 27 year old former burlesque dancer, was guarded today to prevent a.possible attempt at suicide, while authori ties checked her reputed confes sion she drowned her two year old son because she could not make a living. District Attorney Henry Hlrsch- berg said the former showgirl, four months a widow, had slept peace fully last night and had eaten a good breakfast without showing any signs of emotion. 'There are some puzzling details in her signed statement that she drowned her boy, Jimmy, because she found it too hard to make a living for herself and the baby," Hirschberg said. "The child apparently was well nourished." The attractive brunette, a wait- : ress until last Thursday in a New-; burg restaurant, on a salary of about $6 a week, declined to have a lawyer obtained for her.

She does not find time to worry about little things, her appe tite appears to be good, she often eating four times a day, but always three meals. In hot weather she gets up at 5:30 and has her break fast and morning work out of the way before H gets too warm. She takes a nap each day after dinner until 3 o'clock. Martha A, Belieu was her maiden name and she was born in Ray county, Missouri, December 18, 1843, and came to Oregon with her par ents, Mr. and Mrs. Leander Belieu, in a 50-wagon train of oxen drawn prairie schooners when she was 10 years old. The family settled at Dallas where she went to school. In 1850, when she was still four months short of 16 years of age, she mar ried Tolbert Carter In Polk county and later moved to Benton county where they took up a donation land claim upon which she now lives. The seven room home to which she lives lacks some of the modern conveniences. She uses water from a running spring near the house and figures that it is quite conveni ent at that. It would be a nuisance in the house. Tolbert Carter passed away in 1899 and since that time she has lived and operated the place on which her family was raised. She is the mother of eight children, five of whom are living, Mrs. R J. Tay lor of Independence, Perry Carter, 74, J. A. Carter, 80, V. A. Carter, 65 all of the Weils community and liv ing on parts of the old original land claim, and Alvin Carter of Biekle ton. Wash.

Washington, Aug. 21 Al though both president Roosevelt and the state department refused comment on the Itaio-Ethiopian situation today, it was learned au thoritatively that Great Britain has made no appeal to this coun try to review its policy In view of war dangers. A report to that effect from Lon don, not carried by the Associated Press), occasioned the denial.
