Air Raid on

Colony Made
tl4HmnuMi irom rm it
raided and Domei. Japanese news
agency, said several civilians were
killed there. These were not Includ
ed In the government figure.
Japanese accounts said seven
planes took part In the raids.
(But Chinese reports from Han.
sow declared there were seventy
planes In the alrfleet, from a base
on China's southeastern coast, In
cluding Russian-made craft flown
by pilots of undisclosed nationality.
The Chinese figures were discount
ed by foreign authorities In Shang
hai.
(A "foreign legion of the air,"
Including American. Russian,
French and British volunteer pilots,
recently has been reported taking
an important role In China's air
forces.)
News of the raid caused great ex
citement in Tokyo, where the pop
ulation of over 6.000.000 was made
conscious of the perils of air attack
by air defense maneuvers which be
gan today In the Tokyo-Yokohama
area. Previously the Japanese pub

It was the first time since 1(64.
when a Brltlsh-French-Dutch fleet
bombarded Shlmonoeekl, that ter
ritory of the Japanese empire had
been subjected to hostile foreign
bombardment. It was the empire's
first air raid.
An hour before noon, the raiders
swung over the Jspenese air base
on the outskirts of Talhoku, For-
mosan capital, and dropped ten
bombs. A city of 376.000. Talhoku is
near the northern tip of the Island.
approximately 130 miles east of the
southeastern coast of China.
There was only slight damage to
the field.
The raiders then bombarded
points In Shlnchlku province, on the
western coast of the island.
An army - communique charged
that the Chinese planes killed or
wounded women and children at
Talhoku and Chlnchlku city.
It said that "an obscure number"
of planes appeared over the colonial
capital, flying at such an altitude
that anti-aircraft guns were unable
to reach them. "Consequently the
bombs landed far from the local
airdrome, hitting private houses
and causing several casualties among
women and children. There was no
serious damage."
The communique ssld Shlnchlku
City was bombed In the same man
ner an hour later.
(The Japanese consulate-general
at Hongkong announced several civ
ilians were klUed at Talhoku. It
said ten bombs were dropped on
Shlnchlku. but the raiders were
driven off by Japanese planes. There
were a few casualties at Shlnchlku,
but no serious damage.
(A general air alarm was sounded
throughout the island, and the "all

3:43 p. m.)

Labor Group
Plans to Fight
Employers
Eugene, Feb. 33 IJPr Formation of
a new union organization In the
Willamette valley to combat alleged
"insidious influence of the National
Manufacturer's association" was an
nounced here this morning by C. A.
Paddock, organiser of the Lumber
and Sawmill Workers union, spon
sors of the new group.
The organization Is to be known
as the "Better Union Association
of the Willamette Valley," Paddock
said.
"We're making this move to com
bat the propaganda being spread
around by the so-called 'Better Eu
gene Association,' which Is nothing
but another 'union busting' group
fostered by the National Manufac
turers' Association," paddock de
clared. Representatives from the Eugene
group attended the meetings in Sa
lem this week when the State As
sociation of Employers was formed.
E. U. Lee, manager of the Eugene
association, denied emphatically
that the group had any connection
or affiliation with the National
Manufacturers' Association, as
claimed by Mr. Paddock.
"The Better Eugene association
comprises some 300 members and is
not hostile to organized labor as
such, Mr. Lee declared. "It does
intend to protect business people
and workers where force tactics are
used to promote unionization. I refer
to the practice of demanding that
the employer compel his help to Join
a union whether they want to or
not.

Hutchinson Warns
Of War Danger
Imminent danger of the' world

"unless sanity Is restored" wss teen
by Rev. Robert A. Hutchinson, pas
tor of the First Congregational
church, In an address to Rotary
club today.
Flaying what he termed the fail
ure of the United States to "co
operate" after the World war, the
speaker predicted that the American
aloofness from cooperation would
"exact a big price."
"Another generation will follow
In the footsteps of the last war's
victims," he warned.
Rev. Hutchinson asserted that
"resdln" wrltin' and arithmetic"
would not suffice to Insure welfare
and progress. In their stead he set
forth "vision, venture and volition"
as essentials If the world It to avoid
catastrophe.
Dreamers, he declared, were con
tributors to the world progress even
though misunderstood and attacked.
"Dreamers are world-shskers," Rev.
Hutchinson asserted. "No man or
community Is ever better then his
or Its dream."
The "status quo" conception he
sttacked as "a safety first brake" to
slow up progress and termed It "a
damnable philosophy."
Rev. Hutchinson saw little hope
for averting disaster unless a "will
for good" was established through
out the world. This he termed the
"will to live by combination and
cooperation."

In Nut Tariff
Wuhinfton, Fb. 23 WTV-Pacific
coast fruit and nut producer! ar
rayed their forces today against pro
ponents of tariff reductions on Tur
kish raisins, figs and filberts.
Witnesses, headed by .Senator Wil
liam Oibbe McAdoo D Calif.), and
Senator Charles McNary (R., Ore.)
argued before a special committee
on reciprocity information that In
clusions of the three products In any
trade agreement negotiated with
Turkey would be disastrous to the
industries in this country.
California witnesses were obvious
ly annoyed when a representative
of a group of eastern fruit importers
described the California fig as of
"very Inferior quality" and demand
ed that the present tariff of five
cents a pound on dried figs be hal
ved.
The witness, Lawrence Wiseman,
said Importers were not particularly
anxious for a reduction on raisins
inasmuch as the California product
was very satisfactory and of suffi
cient quality to serve the domestic
market.
8enator McNary was joined by
Representative Mott (R., Ore.), and
an aide of Senator Schwellenbach
D Wash.), In asserting an even
higher tariff was desirable for the
protection of the infant filbert In
dustry in the Pacific northwest.
Mott said Oregon and Washington,
If protected by tariffs, were capa

demand for filberts by 1940.
"The Industry owes Its existence
to the present tariff," he said.

Senate Debates
Relief Bill
Amendments
(CmttoiMS fmn 1)
lMs than an hour and then ad
journed.
Members of both branches dis
cussed privately an assertion by
Paul V. McNutt, high commission
er of the Philippines, that he was
not a candidate for any public of
fice.
The high commissioner was asked
by newsmen to comment on report
he aspires to the 1040 democratic
presidential nomination.
McNutt, former Indiana govern
or, was in Washington for an offi
cial report to President Roosevelt
on the far east and to attend a huge
"coming out" party arranged by the
Indianans who are hopeful of hi
chances of becoming president.
A senate-house disagreement over
the relief bill was in prospect today
because of the senate's demand that
the money be spent as rapidly aa
necessary.
The senate adopted that provi
sion. 3 to 36. after Senator Schwel
lenbach (D.-Wash.) pointed out yes
terday that under present law the
emergency appropriation would
have to last until June 30.
Pastors Oppose
Armaments
The Salem Ministerial association
meeting early this week voted unani
mously to oppose the Sheppard-
Hlii bill (now May bill) and the pro
posed armament program of the
administration.
"The Sheppard-HUl bill Is a vic
ious piece of legislstlon that would
destroy our traditional liberties and
our democratic system of govern
ment," the association went on re
cord as declaring. "It has none of
the merits claimed by its supporters.
The claim that It would take the
profit out of war Is fslse. The bill
guarantees a larger profit during
war than Industry enjoyed during
the three year period preceding the
war. Thus those Industries who
msde the larger profits getting us
Into war will reap the largest profits
during the conduct of war.
"The bill provides for virtual
abdication of congress, censorship
of the press, domination and super
vision of all citizens and drafts
labor, thus destroying labor's power
and organisation. It is nothing short
of fascism and we do not propose
turning our government over to a
dictator whoever he might be.
'The armament program of the
present administration cannot be
Justified as a defense program. It
can be defended only as a program
that has an over-seas war in view.
Such a program establishes a ruin
ous naval building race among the
nations of the world and leads di
rectly to war."
