NATIVES HURT
DUCK BREEDING
Anchorage. Alaska. Aug. 23 TV-
Stop the Eskimos and natives from
taking the eggs of breeding ducks
and other waterfowl over Alaska,
say sportsmen here that's one way
of helping to preserve more ducks
for United states hunters.
Tlie immense breeding grounds of
waterfowl in the Yukon and lower
Kuskowim areas are not protected
from such visits, said Ray McDon
ald, a duck hunter, today. With
others, he was Joined in protests
that Alaska, which they contend,
produces a large proportion of the
continent's ducks, has been unduly
hit by the biological survey's re
strictions on duck hunting.
"Thousands of eggs are destroyed
along the Yukon and Kuskoknim
annually by Eskimos and other na
tives who use them for food," said
McDonald.
"Every time they take an egg
away from a nest they take the
equivalent of a duck or goose or
some other bird. If the natives
cannot be stopped from taking the
eggs, maybe the government can
find a way of moving the natives
to reservations, far from the
breeding places of the waterfowl."
CLAIM FAVORITISM
IN TRUCK BUYING
Washington, Aug. 23 (IP) Discri
mination and favoritism in bid spe
cifications for army truck purchases
was charged against the army quar
termaster corps today in a report by
Chairman John J. McSwain, D S.
0.,) of the house military affairs
committee. Based on the committee's
year and a half long Investigation
of army purchases and procurement
practices, the report said:
"Favoritism is demonstrated in so
many different 'Jokers- (in spectfi
cations) that the committee is lead
to believe that it is not an 'acci'
dent,' "
The report referred to testimony
by Quartermaster General Louis H.
Bash, to the effect that so many per
sons checked and re-checked speci
fications "that there cannot be any
thing in the nature of a joker get
into it."
Bash added "it might get in by
mistake."

TO CRITICISMS
Portland, Aug. 23 iLP As a reply
to asserted criticism regarding his

Chairman John J. Beckman of the

tral committee, Thursday charged
republicans had an unfair hold on
jobs in the state works progress ad
ministration.
"Protests to Washington don't do
any good," complained Beckman.
"The republicans continue to get
their friends in. We have a federal
organization here Instructed t- be
non-partisan, but it is easy to see
what has happened.
"I don't say the organization
should be 100 percent democrat, but
the democratic boys should get a
square deal. I am willing that It
should be non-partisan, but not if
non-partisan means taking care of
all the republicans. The administra

two years ago was supposed to be
non-partisan, but 95 percent of the

are still In."

(Continued from pBge 1) '
m ina lion toward war, but regard
British cabinet action as "clarify
ing," Geneva League leaders foresee
huge pressure for peace on Musso
lini. London, Aug. 23 (fp) Great Brit
ain's powerful Imperial defense
committee, working speedily upon
cabinet instructions in view of the
war clouds in East Africa, today be
gan the reallocation of British
fighting forces along the vital points
likely to be affected by a war.
Meeting at 10 Downing street,
close behind yesterday's emergency
cabinet session, the committee,
which functions almost as a war
council, began to review all ques
tions affecting the general strate
gical defense of the empire.
Reports current in official circles
were that the cabinet ministers
were thrown into confusion by a
statement that the admiralty does
not feel the British navy is ready
and prepared for action in the Med
iterranean. The cabinet was reported to have
called for sanctions against any na
tion going to war in defiance of its
treaty obligations providing such
sanctions were administered
through the League of Nations by a
vote of the League council. The
council will meet September 4 at
Geneva.
Meanwhile, the defense commit
tee's secret session was followed by
numerous reports from widely scat'
tered army and navy posts and oth
er points that contingents of Brit
ain's fighting forces were being
hurriedly assembled as reinforce'
ments for potential danger points.
Tlie Suez canal, the link between
the Mediterranean, the Red Sea, and
the far east, forma tlie focus point
for all present defense plans be-
cause of the general British belief
that this-would be the first danger
point In case the Italo-Ethiopian
hostilities should spread beyond the
confines of the black empire.
Unconfirmed rumors were current
that several cabinet ministers yes
tor day expressed dissatisfaction
with the present condition of his
majesty's fighting forces and de
clared they believed the air, land,
and sea forces should be speedily
strengthened.
Informed quarters stated thai the
defense committee was functioning
as a council of action until theGe
neva meeting September 4, the cab
inet having delegated to it the pow
er to reach important decisions In
order to effect the general realign
ment of forces believed necessary in
view of the present threat to peace

Milwaukee, Wis., Aug. 23 (P)
Herbert Hoover's own words were
recalled today by an administration
spokesman to refute the former
president's recent assertion that
Roosevelt ian policies of the last two
years had "trampled upon ' the "pri
mary liberties of the people."
in the first reply of a democratic
leader to Hoover's recent denuncia
tion of the new deal, Senator Duf
fy, of Wisconsin, told delegates to
the Young Democratic convention
that new deal policies were mild in
comparison with those advocated by
Hoover in time of emergency.
Reading from Hoovers testimony
before the house military affairs
committee in 1924, when a bill con
cerning war policies was under con
sideration, Duffy quoted Hoover as
having said:
"I would also suggest that from a
legal point of view a general clause
should be added to the bill giving
blanket authority to the president
to fix taxes, wages, transportation
charges, compensations, embargoes
on imports and exports." .
Hoover, he said, always "regarded
the depression as a war, and pro
nounced the economic situation as
"a greater crisis than war" in his
1032 campaign for reelection.
He listed legislative accomplish
ments of the administration, and
challenged republican critics of the
new deal to slate what they would
have done and to say which of the
"major legislative acts of .the ad
ministration" they would erase from
the statute books,
Duffy, who was asked by Presi
dent Roosevelt to address the con
vention, bore a message from the
latter regretting his inability to be
present.

ELECTION FOR
SCHOOL BONDS
TO BE CALLED
A special bond election some time
prior to Sept. 16, the deadline es
tablished by PWA on which It will
receive applications for federal
grants, was authorized during a
special session of the Salem school
board Thursday afternoon. Follow
ing the announcement early this
week of tlie PWA deadline and the
assurance of C. C. Hockley, Ore
gon engineer for the administration
that the government's decision
would have no effect on the local
situation, it was at first thought the
district's building program would
be carried out as originally discussed.
Yesterday, however, the director!
decided to hurry matters in order
that there might be no controver
sies over the time element.
The board instructed Clark W. H.
Burghardt to file with PWA a pre
liminary application for either a
$960,000 loan and grant or a grant
of $360,000. The firm of Teal, Win
free, Mcculloch & Shuier of Port
land was directed to prepare the le
gal material in connection with tho
bond election entailing $600,000. The
money, if voted by the taxpayers,
will be used to construct a new
senior high school, a new grade
school and make additions to Leslie
junior high. Sites for the new
buildings will also be taken care of
through the bond issue.
The board's architects are busily
engaged in preparing the prelimin
ary working plans for the proposed
building program. They expect to
complete the task within a fort
night. If all necessary details are taken
care of by next Tuesday night, it Is
expected the board will go ahead
and fix the date for the special
election.
