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

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

It at the other end.
County Engineer Hubbs today

ing in condition.

the Jobs on the Coon Hollowroad

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.

who have been working at the park,
cleaning out underbrush and re
moving small trees, will be shifted
to road Jobs in that vicinity until
the general seasonal shutdown goes
into effect August 38.
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. Into Portland,
Champoeg park will be much more
easily accessible. It was pointed out.
The commission believes prospects
are bright for a federal appropria
tion with which to construct a me
morial building and historical mu
seum at Champoeg.
POSTPONE PARLEY ,

The state Softball tournament to
be held In Salem next week may
cause a postponement to tn fol
lowing week of a conference between
city officials and manufacturers' re
presentatives on the kind of pipe
that shall be used for the Stay ton
Island supply line.
Several aldermen who are mem
bers of the special water construc
tion committee of the city council
are ardent softball fans and don't
want to miss any of the games next
week. It Is said some of the mater
ials men feet a good deal the same
way about it and there la some evi
dence that Mayor Kuhn himself,
chairman of the special committee,
is of a similar trend of mind.
When the conference meets repre
sentatives of the lumbering indus
try, steel and concrete Interests are
to present their arguments before
the committee.

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.
Harvey Kelly, general labor coun
sel for the Hearst publications, in
slsted "The Post-Intel I Igencer will
still not compromise with mob vio
lence."
Governor Clarence D. Martin of
Washington, speaking on a state
wide radio hook-up, said he would
not Interfere until all other means
of settling the dispute had failed,
and minimized reports that an em
ergency existed.

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."
