18 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON RIPAY, AUGUST 21, 1936 ROAD OILING PROGRAM ENDS IN NEXT WEEK The oiling program of the county for 1936 which covers over 30 mile 1 expected to wind-up next week. The crew tt at Keizer Bottom today doing a stretch there and from there is to be transferred to St. Paul where tt wlU finish the 1800 feet of pavement not done on the first time around. Lack of mater ials caused the crew to leave the 1800 feet unfinished. While there as sufficient material gathered there when the crew did the work arrangements were made for doing work on streets In the town of St Paul which used up the extra rock So the crew went onto other Jobs while the stock pile there was being replenished. The 1800 feet is on the the St Paul-Aral's corner road which also had some oiling done on It at the other end. County Engineer Hubbs today went over some spots on the Silver- ton -Stay ton pavement where the road was not originally paved be cause of right-of-way difficulties and the plan is now to oil these open stretches in event the road bed is in condition to do so. The county engineer before he left to day expressed doubt as to their be ing in condition. Next week the oiling crew is ex pected to start on some non-skidding work on curves in various parts of the county. The county completed the work at Sublimity recently doing both the Jobs on the Coon Hollowroad In that town and a stretch orr the road Immediately east of It, cover ing nearly the entire town of Sub limity with paved streets.

It has taken Ouadelupe. 110 miles southwest of Madrid, and other towns from rebel foreign legion naires and Moors, reinforced by fas cists, and is moving on toward Ca- cerea and Mend a. Government leaders hope this army and other forces operating west of the capital have suc ceeded in stopping the rebel ad vance from Badajos province and its vicinity. The army which took GiiBrelupe la commanded by Captain Oonzslo Urlbarrl and to called "the phantom column." The column arrived here from Valencia on the east coast. It was composed of loyalist soldiers, civil guards, storm guards and a motley horde of men recruited from the docks and the working districts of Valencia. Government leaders described the solum n as a trouble shooting one. Volunteers who Joined It, they said, were required to prove they were tough, and many of them exhibited scars or wounds, the result of pri vate fights or the Moroccan cam paigns of several years ago. POOR CROP UPON ROOSEVELT FARM Warm Springs, Oa., Aug. 31 IrVt President Roosevelt, owner of a Georgia farm, faces an unprofit able season because of drought rav ages. He may harvest a fair crop of hay, planted after recent rain broke the long dry period. "We would have made absolutely nothing without rains." Otis Moore, manager of the farm, said today. "And even with plenty of rain henceforth, we will only make about fifth of a crop. "However, we do have a fair chance at a fair hay crop, since we have planted 38 or 30 acres of hay erops since the rains." Most of the president's lands are In mountain forests and pastures with only about 150 acres in culti vation. The cultivated land is used principally for the production of feed stuff for cattle. The drought also affected the farm's 13-acre vineyard. SUSPEND WPA IMPROVEMENT ATCHAMPOEG Suspension of WPA work at Champoeg park until after the har vest season will be In effect at the close of today. Jim Smith, director for this district, stated.

Suspension of work at Champoeg park was at the request of the park commission which held that the clearing operations had gone far enoutch. Drainage installation will constitute the next project within the park. The commission has asked the state highway department to con tinue its sponsorship of the Cham poeg project and to prepare com plete plans of the development for the commission's approval. Elevation of the river bank where overflows begin In times of high water was discussed by the com mis sion and Colonel Fox and Captain Damon of the U. S- engineers were arked to study Willamette river de velopment in connection with park protection. - Surveys for the Champoeg Me morial highway between Butteville and the park have been completed. with the construction of the new highway between a point near Hub bard where It will branch from the Pacific highway.

M. Barnett of Wasco, will take part In the days parade here was tiring of the flow of propagan- da. The first issues of the Guild daily a four-page paper Including general local news and sports, were financed largely by contributions of other unions. During the past few days, however, the paper has reached circulation of more than 35,000 cop ies which sell at 6 cents each, and has carried considerable advertising The Post-Intelligencer building has been occupied by only a few guards since last Friday. In the first day of the strike the picket line of 300 or 400 was so menacing that employes of the paper could not go through, and since Saturday the management of the paper has in structed its employes not to attempt to go through the picket line, which has dwindled to about a dozen men About 15 guards have been main tained within the building with po lice taking them tn provisions and supplies. Today police removed four of the guards at their own request and took them through the thin picket line under guard. The Post-Intelligencer shows no disposition to arbitrate the Issue. Seller said. "We have exhausted ev ery available course in hopes of conciliation. But even the offer of Major John F. Dore has been re fused by the management of the Post-In telllgenoer. "Hence there is nothing we can do, but stand by our original de mands for the reinstatement of Frank Lynch and Everhardt Arm strong.

HEARST TALKS ON PI STRIKE New York, Aug. 31 (IP) William Randolph Hearst, in statement given out today through his New York offices relative to the su spension of publication of the Se attle Post-Intelligencer, said: "If the communists want to re lieve me of that cost and of the duty of supplying Jobs to labor. It la not an unmixed evil. I would save money. "However, there Is a' greater issue at stake than saving money. "There Is the issue of a free press and a free country. "No press is free that Is subject to mob rule. "No country is free where the public officials are too cowardly or too corrupt to protect the funda mental rights of loyal and law abid ing citizens. "No country IS even Independent which allows citizens of alien lands and advocates of alien doctrines, like Mister Bridges, a British sub ject, unnaturalized here and unwill ing to be naturalised to defy Its laws and Its constitution, and ride roughshod over its liberties. "No country remains free, or de serves to be free, which has not the spirit to protect Its freedom to guard its own liberties not the lib erties of somebody else, but its own. The trouble with our careless people Is that they are like the western gambler who said that he did not care what happened as long i It did not happen to him. "They forget that what happened to their fellow citizens will event ually happen to them." 21-POINT EXAMINATIONS Assure you Eyewear that is genuinely eorrectii's Poor eyesight may be caused by any of numer ous disorders.

MAN'S OWN WORKS READ AT HIS GRAVE San Jose, Calif., Ail. 31 (Ft The word of a dead man read at his own funeral told mourners, "this Is time for happiness."
