fUESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1536 10 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON CITY TO SLASH INTEREST RATE ON WARRANTS An ordinance bill to reduce from 5 to 3 percent the interest rate me ..Ifv nam nn lfc outstanding War- wv fJ - - rants was Introduced at the city council meeting last mgnt oy niuei man David O'Hara. O'Hara said there Is a strong movement among municipalities to reduce the Interest on warrants. a fh.winiii.t nf m flhfef Harrv Hutton the lire committee of the council Introduced a Din to proniun ' smoking In theaters ol the city. The bill carries the emergency clause. Both measures will be up for third reading In two weeks. Last night's session of the council was one of the shortest held In many years. No bills were on the calendar for third reading. Some would normally have appeared, but were not reported out. One of those was the bill to sell $200,000 water bonds to start work on the reservoir, and another was to make the city recorder's office the license collect ing office instead of the treasurer's office. The latter was held up be cause of the temporary shift about In the two offices due to the Illness of City Treasurer O. O. Bice. The city will ask the state depart ment to furnish the auditors to make the annual cash check of the . city's books, Ordinarily this has been done by commercial auditors, but many Oregon municipalities are now availing themselves of the state of fice. The council granted a request of the 248th coast artillery to extend a radio aerial wire from the top of the First National bank building to the armory for use In training work. On an opinion of City Attorney Paul B. Hendricks the council voted to disallow an Injury claim put In by Miss Jean Bell who was Injured at Liberty and Court streets, alleg edly due to a defect in the pave ment. IRViNGBERliN HONOR GUEST Hollywood, Calif., Jan. 21 (P) Ir vin Berlin's silver Jubilee banquet was strictly musical. The veteran of Tin Pan Alley was the honor guest at a party of 200, mostly song writers, celebrating his 25th year in the business of turn ing out hit tunes for the nation to whistle and hum. The party ad journed early today after Berlin had sung the first song he wrote: "Mario from Bunny Italy." "It wasn't very good," said Berlin, as he sat down to the piano, "but I remember It well, and the society for the protection of song writers, as sembled here, might as well hear it." There was little speech-making. Most of the spare time was given over to playing one song composed by Berlin for each of his 26 years Since 1011, when his first big hit, "Alexander's Bag Time Band," was put together. Berlin's first job was singing WBlter at "Nigger Mike's" in New York. By slides, some of the scenes In that barroom were flashed onto a screen. One of the gags was the presenta- tlon of several huge cardboard boxes, containing "bills" frAm publishers for the songs of Berlin that failed to "click." - Berlin admitted that some of his songs dldnt take. But many of the 1,000 he has written are known the length and breadth of the land. Continuation of Deaths Reach 175 Prom Page One Monday, but the weather bureau called It 17 degrees lower than normal. The unusually heavy snowfall furnished work for many thou sands In the larger cities' snow re moval programs, but It also caused Idleness of other thousands, where mines wero closed and factory pro duction was curtailed becouso work ment wcro unable to reach the plants. School children in some sections enjoyed the snow doubly, In the closing of schools and In the op portunities afforded for coasting, snow balling and other winter sports. In addition to the paralyzing ef fects of the weather on transpor tation by motor, rail, and air, freak winds caused damage to coastwise shipping and fanned fires which resulted In loss of life and millions of dollars In property dam age. Transportation problems wero solved In part today as airlines and railroad schedules aprpoached nor mality 111 most sections. Many secondary highways remain e d blocked, however. The extent of the moderating temperatures was seen In the lat est official weather bureau reports last night which listed Winnipeg, Canada, with 26 below sero na the coldest spot. Other subzero read ings were Devils Lake, N. D., 12; Duluth, Minn., 10; Minneapolis 4; nd Charles City, Iowa, and Madi son, Wis., 2.

Mayor L. B. Owens Instructed Po lice Chief W. H. Rawllnson to "see that a 50-cent charge is Imposed on everybody who rides to the city Jail In the patrol, provided tney are con victed In the recorder's court." FARM REPORTS ADOPTED WITH TWO CHANGES (Continued from page 1) ment. This was done without pro test, and the report will come back to the floor this afternoon for adoption. Another amendment will be in re gard to tax reduction legislation. This was moved by Henry Zorn, who declared that all Industries but farming were benefiting from tax reduction. John Bamage is chair man of the committee handling this report. Notwithstanding the present con troversy in this community between the Independent dairymen and the cooperatives, the conference unan imously adopted the report of the dairying committee in which co operative marketing of dairy pro ducts was recommended. The re port was read by Warren Gray, chairman of the committee. Other reports this forenoon were from the turkey and poultry com mittees. Both were adopted. Other recommendations in the economic committee report included the following: That the lands of Marlon county be classified for the purpose of segregating the agricultural from the non-agricultural lands. All lands, said the report, which class ify as non-agricultural and which will produce forest crops should be so managed that reforestation will follow logging operations, burns, or other causes of forest cover deple tion. That workers who wish to live in the country establish rural resi dences or subsistence type home steads and do not produce for sale, rather than attempt to make part of their living from farming and part from work off the farm. That the farmers of Marlon county, Individually or as groups, consider carefully the feasibility of making contracts with the state game commission to have their lands set aside for the use of hunt ing serin nurchasers. The report considered game birds a legitimate farm crop. That farmers should liquidate in short-term production credit debt as rapidly as possible, liquidate as much of their long-time mortgage debt as feasible with the sums they have available, and develop a plan for the systematic application of a part of the future farm Income to wards further reduction of tne long term debt. That farm purchasers consult tne countv agricultural agent or other competent agricultural authorities concerning the quality of the soil they are proposing to purcnase. That the livestock and other in terested groups set up a commltteo to study the question of cooperative marketing of surplus dairy stock, and that this committee cooperate with any similar groups In other Willamette valley counties. That growers, packers ana can- ners tako oonccrted action to obtain a revision of the railroad tariff which will permit shipment of mixed cars of dried, canned, frozen and barreled fruits and vegetables at their respective carload rates. The report of the dairying com mittee had much to say of the Im portance of pastures and feeds, in eluded In the recommendations were: That where water Is available dal- rymen consider the advisability of developing an adequate Irrigated pasture. That trials of Willamette sweet clover, a new root rot resistant se lection, be made for pasture in dif ferent sections of the county. That the county agricultural agent establish In different parts of the county grass nurseries to deter mine the more desirable grasses used for pasture, also pasture dem onstrations that will include not only different grass mixtures but better management of these pas tures. Various grasses, hay and oth er feeds were treated at length. That concentrates be fed to good producing cows. That only purebred sires selected from high producing families be used. That appointment of a special commltteo to work with the county agent In organising a dairy herd improvement association in the county during the year and to in vestigate the possibility of getting a bull association started within the herd Improvement association when the latter Is started. That all dairymen cooperate for the elimination of Bang's disease, That the county take advantage of the Bangs disease control law. That Oregon Slate college make a thorough Investigation of the dis ease. That particular attention be nald to quality Improvement In order that there be Increased consumption of dairy products and the dairymen can benefit by better prices from niRn quality products. That dolrymen Increase support of me urcgon Dairy council. That marketing practices be con tinued in Improvement Continued support of cooperative marketing. Numerous recommendations from the poultry and turkoy committees were adopted. Ethiopia's area now Is estimated at 400,000 square mile.

Rands, senior hydro-electric engi neer, board of army engineers, said today that in a survey being made for Improvement of the Willam ette valley, more than 45 proposed sites for dams, and storage reser voirs are being studied. He pointed out that $225,000 has been appro priated for the survey. Storage reservoirs in the Wil lamette river proper are not feas ible, Rands told the chamber of commerce forum, but storage dams can be easily constructed In the tributaries. These reservoirs would hold back about three million acre feet of water, he said. Bands observed that each acre foot of water, falling one foot, would create about one kilowatt of electrical energy, and the potential electric power generation would 'be on the credit side of the ledger in the Willamette valley Improvement. He said the storage reservoirs would eliminate the annual flood problem by controlling the runoff, and also would place more water In the river at the low water stages, thus aiding in control of pollution. He said the Willamette river, in its low water stage discharging 2,400 second feet, Is little more than an open sewer. Navigation, too, would be bene fitted by the storage reservoirs, the engineer said, and some 1,200,000 acres could be brought under prof itable Irrigation should the reser voirs be approved. JURY SELECTED FOR NEGRO'S 4TH TRIAL Decatur, Ala.. Jan. 21 (LP) A Jury of 12 white men was selected in Morgan county circuit court today to try Rahawood Patterson, one ol nine negroes accused of tne scotts boro assault case. It was the fourth time Patterson had gone on trial for the same crime. Three previous convictions and sentences to death were set a- side bv higher courts. Twelve ncRroes were drawn in the original panel, but the were elimin ated. Reversal of previous convic tions by the United States Supreme Court was based on the fact that ncRroes were excluded from Jury rolls In Alabama. Soviet Papers Play Down King: Story Moscow, Jan. 21 yn The news of the death of King George was used on the front page of Soviet news papers today but was given second ary play to large layouts of the 12th anniversary of the death of Nikolai Lenin.

(Associated Press Photo) England's New King Preferred Private Life But Won't Shirk Duty By DeWITT "WacKENZIE (Br Associated Press) Again for Britain have come echoing down from the ages the fateful words "The king is dead ; long live the king!" And upon the comparatively youthful shoulders of her fa vorite son has fallen In these trou- bled times the crushing burden of sovereignty over the greatest em pire the world has known. For Edward, Prince of Wales, these words, which have ushered In and out an endless line of English rulers, spelled double tragedy. They robbed him of a beloved father, who had been his compan ion and guide since the days of bed-time stories; they thrust him upon a throne which he would much prefer not to occupy. The prince long had let it ue known that he did not want to be king. He would have preferred that one of his brothers rule, for by ev ery inclination he is a country gen tleman just plain David Windsor, citizen in ordinary. He Is conscientious and never will GAME SAVING MEET CALLED Acceptances from various Individ uals and groups throughout Oregon, who are interested In the conserva tion of wild life and natural re sources of the state and nation, are now being received by Worth W.

But to David (the name by which his family calls him) Windsor, belongs the heart of this a wholly lovable, unpretentious, outdoor chap, who had rather be with his men on the roundup on his "E. P." ranch at Peklsko, Calgary, than playing the role of royalty. Palaces and regal splendor mean little to him for himself. Often he has gone about his heavy public duties as Prince of Wales though yearning for the great outdoors his ranch, his farms, his cattle, bis horses and his sports. Even when in residence In Lon don his home has reflected the character of David Windsor. He has lived in great York House, which adjoins beautiful old St. James' palace, above of many famous royal predecessors. But to him it has been just his "digs." Now David Windsor becomes king-emperor and moves into the wonder palaces of the English mon- archs, thrusting behind him his "digs," his Canadian ranch, and all the rest of the private life which he has held dear. The prince will bring to the throne a wealth of equipment for his great task. His training for kingship began in the cradle, and has continued Intensively until the present time. He got his first real Insight Into life when as a mere stripling he went to the British front In France to fight along with the rest of the flower of Britain's manhood. A good soldier he was, too. There were many who tried tu dissuade the royal heir from endan gering his life. They discovered then he had the firm chin which has accounted for much of his suc cess thus far. BOY THIEVES FILL JUVENILE COURT A procession of boys passing through juvenile court this month has caused Mrs. Nona White, county probation officer, to issue a warning to adults against ' purchasing ar ticles promiscuously from children. "The history of these baby thiev ing coses runs monotonously the some," said Mrs. White. "First they pick up trivial articles, Junk, or something of extremely small value, find someone who'll buy it for a few pennies, gain encouragement and pretty soon are stealing something of value such as tires or bicycles. and often In turn they find someone to buy these things. "Great care should be exercised by persons buying anything from children to ascertain that the child has the right to sell tlio article. Otherwise it encourages theft. And it may be necessary to take action against persons who have a habit of buying stolen property as the statute makes it a crime to receive or be In possession of this kind of loot. At any rate, If care Is exer cised not to buy such articles much of this petty thievery will be dls- couroRed ond nipped In the bud.

With the succession of Edward VIII to the throne, the next eldest son automatically becomes the heir-apparent. Edward became king at the moment of his father's death. England's constitutional principles provide there shall be no Interval between two monarchs.

' COMMUNIST MUST SERVE PRISON TERM (Continued from page 1) trial and was sentenced a year ago. The brief opinion held that the "resume of testimony in the bill of exceptions shows that the witnesses on the part of the defendant gave evidence contradictory to the testi mony given by witnesses ol tne state. All the witnesses agree: That there wos a meeting held in the city of Portland July 28, 1934, as alleged In the indictment, at which defend ant, Edward B. Denny presided: that the meeting was called by the com munist party and that defendant in troduced the speakers generally with the statement that the speaker in troduced, 'had an Important message for the workers.' " Justices Beon, Bailey and Band concurred with the opinion. In an opinion in a second criminal case, the court upheld the convic tion of Victor Lenhardt on a charge of assault and robbery while being armed with a dangerous weapon. He was sentenced to 15 years in the state penitentiary, but appealed from the circuit court of Multnomah county. The charges against Lenhardt stated he robbed the store of Mrs. Yukino Takabayashi In Portland on March 2. 1935, by holding up three persons. The opinion, written by Justice John B. Rand affirmed the decree of Judge James P. Stapleton. The court upheld the Judgment of $600 damages awarded Samuel J. DeMarais against the state board of embalming examiners when the latter refused to grant a license to the Oregon City Funeral home un less plaintiff were dismissed and not re-employed. The lower court of Multnomah county held with the plaintiff and awarded the damages, which order was sustained. It was held in the opinion DeMar ais was dismissed because he ' had participated with the coroner in the alleged practice on his part or piac ing bodies, coming under his of flclal supervision, with the Oregon Citv Funeral home where near rela tives were thereafter charged by the funeral home for services not other wise authorized as a condition for surrendering the deceased to some other undertaker. The opinion, written by Justice P, R. Kelly held that might have been sufficient reason for refusing a li cense to that funeral home; "but it could not have the effect of con ferring jurisdiction upon the licen sing board to demand a perpetually continuing Interdiction against the funeral home employing tne plain tiff." - - Other opinions handed down to day were: A.

Mir it TRY OLD QUAKER 90 PROOF DISTILLED LONDON DRY OIN ' SHARP TONGUE OFBARRYMORE BECOMES IDLE Hollvwood. Jan. 21 (VP) Holly. wood is beginning to wonder If age has mellowed John Barrymore. The 63-year-old actor has been home more than a month now, but not a single devastating remark or stinging retort has been reported from his razor-edgea tongue. He laid the foundations for hla reputation as a dispenser of verbal r crushers years ago, when he was just beginning his career on the stage. He was in a play. A man, In the first few rows, coughed through the first act, hacked away through the second, and was going strong In the third. Suddenly, Barrymore stepped out of character, advanced to the foot lights and yelled: "Throw that banting seal a nsnr And then when a woman, Inter- viewing him for a movie magazine, asked him a highly personal ques tion, he retorted: "Madame, It pains me deeply, but I am compelled to tell you that It is none of your er damn business!" Barrymore, In a moment of dis couragement: "I guess I'm just a warning pro file." To Douglas Fairbanks, on tht subject of how much more dlfficuH Barrymores movie roles were cnon his: All vou need is a loin-cloth and a sword and 500 soldiers to run away from.

When a servant made the mistake of bringing him a glass of water ln.T stead of the highball he asked for, f In a Hollywood home, he cried: "Glory be, I'm being poisoned in th hniiflp of the Borfflas." The retort he likes best to relate is the one his grandmother made when she heard he had been draft ed by the army to do relief work in the Son Francisco eartnquaKe oi 1906. "It took an earthquake to gei Jack out of bed, and the United States army to make him work." RULING MADE ON TITHING STATUTE The 1935 state tithing law will have no effect upon receipts from timber assessments of forest firs patrol, obligated by contracts prior to the passage of the act, Attorney General I.
