Snell Discusses
Vets' Problems
Post-war problems pertaining
to the returning veteran and the
welfare of the state were dis
cussed by Governor Earl Snell
at the Chamber of Commerce
luncneon Monday noon. Para
mount obligation of these is to
win the war at the earliest pos
sible moment.
Federal policies must be
taken into . consideration, the
governor said, . and there is a
definite place for federal-state
cooperation which should favor
free enterprise and personal in
itiative. Whatever remains to
be done must point towards a
lasting peace throughout the
world through political and eco
nomical force and if necessary,
military might. America is
charged with this responsibility,
he said.
Governor Snell said there
must be a unified program of
service ready for the ex-serviceman
and towards this means he
called a meeting of the heads
of all veterans' organizations in
Portland to create a central
agency to provide information.
There were 35 of these repre
sentatives at the meeting with
an executive committee of seven
to provide a laison committee,
both meeting monthly.
Authority for this program
was granted by the last legisla
ture which set up the necessary
machinery along the line of the
GI bill of rights. The post war
readjustment and rehabilitation
committee has outlived a total
of $400,000,000 in projects, some
of which are tentative only, but
so far there is cash on hand of
$60,000,000 for this purpose,
Governor Snell said. Together
with funds for unemployment
compensation the total amount
available is $120,000,000.

Layfon Pleads
For Clemency
Richard Harry Layton, 39,
former Monmouth police offi
cer sentenced to die December
8, has appealed to Governor
Earl Snell for commutation of
his sentence to life imprison
ment, the governor said today.
The governor did not indicate
what action he would take, al
though it has been his policy
not to commute sentences un
less a miscarriage of justice is
proved.
Layton was convicted in Polk
county circuit court of the rape
slaying of Ruth Hildebrand, 17,
Dallas, and he was sentenced -to
die in the prison's gas chamber.
The crime occurred June 8,
1943, on a Willamette river
bank 15 miles south of Salem,
and her battered nude, body was
found floating In the river 12
days later.
Layton had confessed, but in
his appeal to the state supreme
court, he contended that police
tortured him to obtain the con
fession. The supreme court
unanimously upheld the con
viction, and the United States
supreme court refused to re
view the case.
"He eats like a horse and
sleeps like a log," Halley said.
4The only time he gets fidgety
is when his meals don't arrive
on time."

Louis will have to face after the
war Is Father Time.
Dempsey, here for a buy-a-bond
program, said that .time is
always the toughest opponent
when a champion lays off and
two more years in the army for
the brown bomber would leave
him far off the championship
form that is needed in the hea
vyweight ranks.
"Army life doesn't help a
fighter." Dempsey said. "Louis
no doubt will return to the ring
after the war. but if he has to
wait two or more years a second
or third-rater may be able to
stop him."

Flood Control
Bill Hits Snag
Washington, Nov. 21 (TPi
Plans for quick passage of a
billion dollar flood control bill
ran today into an argument over
the St. Lawrence seaway rec
ommended by President Roose
velt .
Instead of acting on the bill
in a matter of hours prelimin
ary to taking up a $500,000,000
rivers and harbors authoriza
tion, the senate faced the pros
pect of a controversy that might
run into next week.
The plans were snagged when
Senator Aiken (R., Vt.) insisted
on presenting his amendment
authorizing the seaway. Even
as the senate moved toward de
bate, Aiken kept his colleagues
in doubt as to whether he would
offer his amendment for the
flood bill or the rivers and har
bors measure.
Should Aiken hold his amend
ment for the latter bill, the St.
Lawrence controversy would be
removed from the flood control
measure, but there would still
remain arguments over states'
rights, hydroelectric power de
velopment, and irrigation as
well as several big projects.
The house-approved bills call
for postwar construction of
flood control, hydroelectric fa
cilities, harbor works and re
lated projects throughout the
country a program backed in
principle by President Roose
velt to create a shelf of public
works and jobs.
Only recently the president
renewed his long-standing re
quest for approval of the sea
way, estimated to cost from
$200,000,000 ty) $400,000,000.

Army Bans Fag
Sales in Britain
London, Nov. 21 IJPi The
halting of cigaret sales at all
U. S. army post exchanges in
England except at air force com
bat stations led the army .news
paper Stars and Stripes today to
demand an answer from Wash
ington "to the question which is
In the mind of every Gl smoker
where are the cigarots?"
The army asid a critical short
age and priorities for combat
forces on the continent caused
the ban on sales. Hospital pa
tients and combat personnel will
still be able to smoke their
favorite brands from the states.
British cigarets cost about 50
cents for a package of 20. Brit
ish Tommies are rationed 45
English cigarettes a week.
In Paris supreme headquar
ters promised a report on the
cigaret situation In the French
capital and many other rear
areas, where U.S. soldiers were
also told they could get no oig
arets. American cigarets were sell
ing on the Paris black market at
$4 per package.
(The Tokyo radio, in a broad
cast recorded by CBS, said it
was virtually Impossible to find
a package of popular-brand
cigarets anywhere in the United
States, and cited this as an in
dication that collapse on the
U.S. home front was near.)

Nelson Given
Cabinet Rank
Washington, Nov. 21 Mi -Donald
M Nelson has been des
ignated "personal representa
tive" of President Roosevelt,
with rank at the cabinet level,
and will occupy offices In ths
White House.
The appointment was con
firmed by letter shortly befors
Nelson, former WPB chairman,
left this country on his second
mission to Chungking to create
a Chinese war production board,
it was ascertained today.
The presidential letter noti
fied Nelson he would sit in cab
inet meetings, and was under
stood also to mention another
trip in the Pacific on his return
from China. This appeared to
point to New Zealand or Aus
tralia. Beyond this, the note did not
go much farther in formalizing
Nelson's status than the "Dear
Donald" letter accepting Nel
son's resignation from strife
torn WPB. Mr. Roosevelt then
asked him to remain in the gov
ernment for "a high post of
major importance" in Interna
tional economic affairs.
For this reason, some friends
of Nelson believe the new mes
sage to be an interim devics
emphasizing Nelson's role as di
rect economic envoy between
the president and the heads of
foreign governments, but prob
ably to be followed up by a
more precise title and official
status.
Harley Selected to

carry salaries of S12.000 a year.
Gillette was defeated for re
