Hutton the lire committee of the
council Introduced a Din to proniun

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

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

done by commercial auditors, but
many Oregon municipalities are now
availing themselves of the state 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.

to disallow an Injury claim put In

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.

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

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

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.

45 DAMSITES IN
VALLEY STUDIED
Portland, Jan. 21 (ff) H. A.
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

side bv higher courts.

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,

shirk the duty which, through birth,
he owes to the peoples he loves. 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.

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." - -
