IB THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON TUE'SDAY, APRIL 21, 1936 UNCLE DAVID PENS LETTER TO PRINCESS London, April 21 (iPi "Uncle Da vid" sent a note of apology today to soften the disappointment of little Princess Elizabeth, second in suc cession to the British throne, who had expected the wearer of the crown of Britain to attend her 10th birthday party. The note said "Uncle David," oth erwise known as Kin Edward VIII, was prevented by state affairs from attending his niece's party. The princess drew some consola tion from the opening of hundreds of presents from aU parts of the world. Due to a family rule she may not keep any gifts sent by persons unknown to the royal family. Another member or. British roy alty who could not attend was the Princess RoyaJ, the Viscountess Las celles. A doctor's bulletin from Leeds said that Princess Mary was suffer ing from measles, and the complaint was "taking its normal course." Other guests who did attend, how ever, and whom the princess served with generous slices of a birthday cake baked by the king's own chef, Included her parents, the Duke and Duchess of York, and her uncles and aunts, the dukes and duchesses of Kent and Gloucester. Exceedingly personal were the in vitations too written by the little princess herself on mauve-edged stationery stamped with the initial "E" and a royal crown. The cake she cut herself from her place of honor at the head of the table. This formal affair was at the Royal Lodge at Winosor, and bells of Windsor castle, St. George's cha pel and Windsor parish church were rung in her honor. Later little Princess Elizabeth en tertained a group more nearly her own age at a tea in her own tiny model home, a gift from the Welsh people on her sixth birthday. Eliza beth herself made the tea for this party and buttered the toast. Special arrangements had to be made by the court postoffice to handle the rush of ttlegrams, let ters, parcels and cards from all parts of the world. . Many of the gifts were stamps, for the princess has followed her grandfather, the late King George V, as a philatelist. APPLICATIONS FOR . PENSIONS SCANNED With 500 old age pension appli cants who have to be qualified un der the new old agt- pension law with new applications and these qualifications in befovii May 1 to al low them to participate under the increased payments With federal and state age, the relief committee was expected to go over 160 of these ap plications today. This will swell the list of those qualified by the county committee to around 200 leaving an additional 300 to be qualified to take up the slack only - on those who were already on the pension lists. There will be an additional 200 more new applicants coming in un der the new provisions and it is a question whether there will be time to qualify these on toi of the other 600 who had already . been getting pensions from the comity. If the to tal of the first 500 art not qualified under the wire county court mem bers express . the belief they may have to pay the pensions of those not qualifying from tl?e county poor fund, so every effort will be made to get the new applications In. But after the county relief committee passes these applications they must be passed by the statu relief com mittee which may turn back some of the applications on technical de fects. It was stated today by Coun ty Commissioner Rov Melson that no stone will be left unturned to get in all of the 700 applications this month if possible If not it is pos sible the other 200 may have to wait over until the following month for their first pension checks.

Indictments against George Weit- zcl, Ben Melchor, Conrad Troudt and John Sauer, charging them with a crime against nature in Multnomah county, were affirmed by the court in an opinion by Jus tice Bean. AVeitzel and Sauer ap pealed from an order by Circuit Judge Louis P. Hewitt denying a motion to dismiss the indictments The defendants contended the charges should be dismissed because their cases were not tried at the next term of court after the indict ments were found by the grand jury.
