WPA WRITERS
SURVEY STARTS
IN THIS AREA
Field work for the historical rec
ords survey, the new project of the
federal writers' program of the WPA
was started in Marlon county this
week by Alphonsus O'Reilly of Sa
lem and Thad H. Wentworth of
Portland, under the supervision of
Dr. Beatrice Altchison of Portland,
field supervisor of the survey in
Oregon. Dr. Altchison will work with
Mr. O'Reilly and Mr. Wentworth
during the first week or two of re
search, which is beginning In the
archives of the state offices and
court house.
The purpose of this nation-wide
undertaking Is to collect Informa
tion for a comprehemive index of
the basic materials fo research in
the history of the United States.
The results of the survey in Marion
county are to be included In a sep
arate Oregon index, which will be
printed by the university of Ore
gon Press.
After making an inventory of the
public records, Mr. O'Reilly and Mr.
Wentworth will undertake an ex
tensive survey of privately owned
historical materials.
Alfred Powers, dean of the gen
eral extension division of the Ore
gon state system of higher education
and state director of federal writing,
urges that all persoiis who own or
know of historically interesting let
ters, diaries,' ledgers, photographs,
articles of early furniture, etc., re
port such relics either direct to Al
phonsus O'Reilly, 1232 Center street,
Salem, or the Historical Records
Survey, Bedell building, Portland,
so that the research in Marion coun
ty may be as exhaustive as possible.
The survey does not contemplate
the removal of any relic from its
present owner, since its object is
merely to record what the Item is
end In whose possession.
Continuation of
Third Party
Prom Page One
"It was suggested," Downey said,
that a large sum of money would
be available for the Townsend move
ment, but Dr. Townsend says that
there' was no discussion of a third
party campaign during the negotia
tions. While a possible third paity
movement was reported being dis
cussed, the United Press was in
formed, discord developed which
later led to the resignation of Rob-1
ert E, Clements as secretary-treasurer
of the old-age pension organ
ization. Clements, who has testified be
fore the house pension plan inves
tigating committee, is to be recalled
when hearings are resumed after
investigators sent to California to
study Townsend records reports
their findings.
He told reporters he had no
knowledge of any offer of money
for a third party campaign.
Washington, April 4 tTP) Thej
congressional inquiry into the Town-
send old age pension organization
was directed today toward the Pa-
cific coast, stronghoid and birth
place of the movement.
Representative Gavngnn (D., N.
y.), of the house investigating com
mittee planned to leave Washington
either today or tomorrow for Los
Angeles and other west coast cities
to secure Information the nature of
which Chairman Be!i declined to
disclose.
Oavagan, designated as a sub
committee of one, was authorized to
take cert n In depositions. Other in
vestigators went to Townsend reg
ional offices at Chicago and to east
ern headquarters at Now York.
Several committee members prl-
vately expressed disappointment that
the audit being made of the Town
send books In the combined nation
al and southern headquarters here
will not provide Information ex
pected because of their "muddled
and confuseqV condition.
John Bloodsworth, accountant,
has testified some of (he books were
not "readily susceptlbiti to audit."

JOHNSON UNDER
CROSS QUESTION
Yreka, Calif., April 4 ) French
E. Johnson, who asserted his auto
mobile killed Elmer Rock, Tule Lake
rancher, under "purely accidental"
circumstances, returned to the stand
for cross examination today.
Johnson, of Klamath Falls, Ore.,
and Tule Lake, related yesterday he
became . confused when his dog
dropped from a seat to the floor of
his car. Over a several -hundred-foot
stretch the car sped forward,
unguided, he said, and fatally in
jured Rock.
He had a companion remain with
the Injured man while he hastened
to Tule Lake for help, he testified.
The state has accused him of
murder in deliberately running down
HOCK.
Frequent clashes between attor
neys marked yesterday's session
Superior Judge C. J. Luttrell re
quested counsel to com pete presen
tation of evidence by noon today.
A defense motion that charges be
dismissed because the state motor
vehicle act, as amended, makes no
provision for a murder accusation,
was denied.
MOST USERS OF
WATER GOOD PAY
Bud debts owed by water users to
the City of Salem water department
have been so small during the eight
momns the city has owned the
plant as to be negligible, amounting
to only .0022 per cent. Manager Cuy-
ler Patten told the water commis
sion last night.
Salem has totaled tl25.021.29
since August 1 last, the date on
which the city took over tile plant,
with bad debts of only $274.39. Rec
ords show that from 1928 to 1931 in
clusive average sales of the Oregon
Washington Water Service company
were siv,356 annually with bad
debts of $805, or .005 per cent.
Van Patten said the Plant's migr
ating profit for March was $8901.57
not counting deductions for Interest
payments and principal on the wa
ter bonds. The month's expenses
were $4704.18.
Van Patten was authorized bv the
commission to attend a northwest
sectional meeting of the American
waterworks association to be held

OFFICERS HEAR
ADDRESSES AT
DINNER MEET
Justice J. O. Bailey of the state
supreme court. Rev. Quy Drill of
the First Christian church, Mayor
V. E. Kuhn, sheriff Martin Pratt
of Multnomah county. United
States Attorney Carl C. Donaugh,
Roy R. Hewitt of Salem and J. W.
Murray of the penitentiary, were
among the speakers last night at
a meeting of the Northwest As
sociation of Police Officers, meet
ing at the Quelle restaurant. Oeorge
Alexander, assistant superinten
dent of the Oregon state police, was
loastmaster.
In commending the police offi
cers for their work In enforcing the
law Justice BaUey said the public
also should do its part. "The pub
lie has as important a duty as the
officers .in seeing that the laws are
enforced," Bailey said. "We all
know that we have too many laws
but the public Is duty-bound in
seeing to their enforcement.
We say we have a free country, and
then we proceed to do as we please,
Justice BaUey stressed the im
portance of keeping punishment
adjusted to the crime committed
and deplored discrepancies in sent
ences as Imposed In different coun
ties.
Rev. Mr. Drill said he had great
respect, for police officers wno do
their duty, and none for the man
"who gets pay from both sides of
the desk."
"It Is for the officers to enforce
the laws as they are made," he said,
"If they are not good laws they
must be changed by the people, not
by the police officers."
The visiting officers were wel
comed by Mayor V. E. Kuhn who
introduced Chief of Police Prank
A. Minto. "The city is proud of
mm, said the mayor.
Response to the mayor was made
by sheriff Martin Pratt of Multno
mah county.
An interesting talk on finger
printing was made by Joe Murray,
head of the identification bureau of
the state at the penitentiary. He
said that 110,000 fingerprint rec
ords have been collected in Oregon
since 1924.
Speaking on behalf of Chief Har
ry Nlles of Portland, United States
Attorney Donaugh invited the of
ficers to the northwest convention
of police officers In Portland this
spring. Royal mounted. police from
Canada will be special guests. The
invitation was also extended by
Ex-Chief Leo V. Jenkins of Port
land.
Roy R. Hewitt, probation officer
for Marion county, said he believed
concise statement of laws would
help in their enforcement.
Entertainment numbers were
vocal solo by Lieutenant Max A1-
ford of the state police, accompan
ied by Miss Helen Burgh, and a tap
dance by Helen Smith.
PEPCO ELIMINATES
CIRCUIT CHARGES
The Portland General Electric
company today eliminated motor
control circuit charges on poles be
tween the state tuberculosis hospital
and the penitentiary annex, because
"it Is an extention of our service
and not that of the state."
The 10 cents a line per pole charge
assessment brought protest from
State Treasure Holman in a board
of control meeting recently. He said
"if the power company charges the
state for contracts, why not charge
them for placing poles on state pro
perty?" The assessment, the company ex
plained, was. made erroneously.
Says Dictatorship
. Born at Versailles
Portland, Ore., April 4 VPy Ver
non McKenzle, director of the Uni
versity of Washington School of
Journalism, told a group of business
men that "dictatorships In Europe
were oorn at Versailles and are oe-
ing maintained by propaganda."
"I am inclined to agree that Eu
rope Is lost unless by some method
or other French stubbornness can
be overcome; that hunger and des
peration may force Europe to have
economic and political common
sense, and that the masses and
classes can be made to realize how
horrible the next war Is going to be,'
he said.
McKenzle has visited Europe fre
quently in recent years.

For 35 years connected with the
Southern Pacific railroad, 28 years
of which were spent as a ticket
agent at the depot in Salem, Jona
than Bourne had a wide range of
friends in the city and over the val
ley. For the past four years he had
lived the life of a retired railroad
man . Four months of the period were
spent in the Southern Pacific hos
pital at San Francisco where he
went for treatment, leaving here a
year ago New Year's day. After his
return he spent much of his time at
the Elks' temple, the rest visiting
his friends or appearing on the
streets interchanging repartee with
the friends of over a quarter of a
century.
He was born at Atlantic, Illinois,
on November 8. 66 years ago. In 1888
he came to Oregon. His father was
engaged in the mercantile business
at Eugene and Jonathan became as
sociated with the Southern Pacillc
company at Roseburg. He became
ticket agent in Salem a few years
later and remained in that capacity
ity until his retirement. For around
30 years he resided in the Westacott
home on Court street where he was
almost as much of a fixture as the
home itself.
He was stricken with a paralytic
stroke at 10 o'clock Thursday morn

"I lived In North Dakota 35 years.
During my whole life irom boyhood
to this day, I have taken an active
interest in social and economic ques
tions. When I was 27 years old I ad
dressed the 1907 session of the North
Dakota legislature on the subject of
cooperative marketing of grain. In
isuB, wnue president of the Ameri
can Society of Equity Department of
the Grain Growers, I took a very
active part in Washington, D. c, in
the work of getting our present fed
eral grain inspection laws enacted.
That fact can be ascertained by
looking up the report of the U. S.
senate committee on agriculture on
that subject.
My record as a man and citizen
of North Dakota is an open book.
Ask any reputable, responsible citi
zen whether it was good or bad.
"I have not been a candidate for
public office since I was 26 years
old. Before that time I got every
office I went after. I was assistant

clerk of the school board, school di
rector and township assessor."

ISSUED TO INDIANS
A person with more than one-
eighth Indian blood has the same
status as a full-blooded Indian in
Oregon as far as issuance of liquor
permits are concerned, Attorney
General I. H. Van Winkle ruled to
day. No permits may be Issued to In
dians, nor can beer be sold them
legally.
Van Winkle held there was no
statute In the state defining an In
dian, but said it was the purpose of
tne legislature to deny sale of al
coholic permits to persons having
more than one-eight Indian blood.
He so ruled in an opinion to the
district attorney of Curry county.

JYM JAMBOREE
MOST COLORFUL
SHOW OF SEASON
Well drilled performers, appro
priate and colorful costumes, ana
excellent music combined last night
to make the annual Jym Jamooree,
Salem high school Girls' Letter club
event, one of the best of the series
directed by Grace Wolgamott and
Vivian Bartholomew of the physical
education staff. Every inch of avail
able seating space in the high school
gymnasium was filled with spectat
ors some time before the program
got under way.
From the time the high school
band led by Director Gordon Flniay
rendered the first notes of Von
Suppe's Light Calvary Overture un
til tho stirring notes of "Stars and
Stripes Forever," of Sousa brought
a lining climax to the evening, thi
program was packed full of Interest
ior tne appreciative spectators.
Alice Swift as "Chief White Ea
gle," clad In Indian costume, wel
comed the visitors of "foreign lands'
to the big now wow. the motif for
this year's athletic show. Then, in
tum came dancers from Scotland,
Italv, Ireland, Japan. Holland, Eng
land, Ethiopia and the United
States. Clad In native costumes the
dancers put on a show that would
be considered first class In nrofes-
slonal circles. Interspersed with the
dances were tumblers from Ger
many, pyramid builders from Egypt,
ana a large group Irom Swcdei;
which put on a spectacular and
rhythmic bar drill.
Perhaps the mast colorful and en
tirely different feature of the eve
ning was the cherry blossom dance
staged by nine Japanese young wo
men attired in appropriate oriental
costumes. Typical Japanese music,
made available through an amoli-
fied recording, added greatly to the
interest of the performance.
The Indian campflre scene, with
nearly a hundred young women clad
in blankets and many-colored fea
thers participating brought the for
mal part of the program to a close.
In this scene Betty Read gave the
difficult and picturesque eagle
dance.
The music of the high school band
was a revelation to hundreds who
had not been privileged to hear the
group In recent months. The musi
cians rendered a number of semi
classical pieces with the ease and
confidence of professionals.
COUNTY LIBRARY
RECEIVES LAW BOOKS
The county law library is receiving
from an eastern publishing company
complete new sets of the southeast
ern and southwestern law reports, i
total of 565 additional volumes
when all are received at a cost of
around $1000. The greatest number
of the volumes already have arrived
and have been put in place on the
library shelves by Circuit Court
Clerk Walter Lamkln. Under the
contract with the county the coun
ty pays $250 down for these books
and the balance as additional fees
are received. Books for the law li
brary are all paid for out of a small
additional fee on filing of certain
legal papers so in fact litigants pay
for the library books and not the
taxpayers at large.
The lees run about $800 a year
and additional money over the pre
sent contract is used in keeping up
with other reports and various text
books and general works. The design
is to ultimately have complete sets
of all the reports available for the
two courts here as well as a fairly
stocked library of general legal e
ference works.

COUNTY HEALTH
PROGRAM DRAFTED
Portland, April 4 (P) Mrs. Saidie
Orr Dunbar, secretary of the Oregon
tuberculosis association, proposed a
five-point primary health program
for county subdivisions at the 20th
annual convention here.
The program, she said, should
consist of health education, case
finding, providing Institutional care,
rehabilitation and public health
nursing.
Mrs. Dunbar said there was need
for more emphasis on child health
education through distribution of
health literature, consultations with
parents and public speaking.
The secretary expressed the belief
that the association had not given
sufficient attention to the field of
adult education, and said .figures
showed that more effective work
among younger groups had moved
the peak mortality toll 'into the
higher age brackets.
