A Long Sh! Sir CHICAGO, March 13. Of) Shrouded in the silence which be tokens deep concentration, 20 expert checker players were competing today for the championship of the United States in a tournament sponsored by the American Checker association. The contestants included Sam Got notsky, of Brooklyn, present world's champion; Willy Ryan of the Bronx; Basil O. Case, Illinois champion; P. H. Ketch um, Illinois champion for three rears, and Jtsst Hansen of Oakland, Cat Opening of the tournament brought to light the involved rules of checker etiquette, and revealed checker vir tuosi to be as temperamental as champion golfers. "One player can't smoke if It an noys his rival," explained E. J. 8 eel bach, secretary of the association. "It is considered criminal for a player to drum on the table with his fingers. It's nothing short of murder for a third person to step up and comment ; on the play." "Sh-h-hl" came angrily from the contestants. A cat had walked across the floor. 1 "Take that thing away I" demanded a checkerist. "How ccn we concen trate with all that racket going on?" IN OIL POLICY : i WASHINGTON, March 18. UPh After a conference today with Preai- dent Hoover, Senator Walsh of Mon tana expressed his belief that uie ad ministration's oil conservstion policy is much brosder in scope than was aaBumed upon ita disclosure yester day at the White House. The senator aaid the president's program contemplated the granting of leaaes to holders of oil prospecting permits only in those cases where the permittees have made reaaonable expenditures in drilling wells. There are 82,000 permits arrecting the public domain now outstanding and the percentage of the holders who have made auch reasonable expendi tures as contemplated under tne gen eral leasing act ia believed to be rather email. The policy of the administration, aa Senator Walah now understands It, also contemplatea no leases of land adjacent to that which may be leased to prospectora who strike oil. The senator holds that the act of April 1020 contemplated the leasing of such lands so aa to bring about ths de velopment of fairly Urge fields in each case. As a further measure of conserving the government oil in the ground, the administration will grant leases for the drilling of offset wells on the public domain to prevent drainage of government oil through wells on ad jacent territory. Conrt action to test the validity of the construction the administration places on the general leasing act la expected to ba one development of the disclosures of the president'a con servation policy. Senator Walsh said the outcome probably would hinge on the meaning of tile word "may" In tiat act, which providea that the secretary of the in terior "rosy" issue permits for pros pecting lor oil on tne puonc nomnin. The senator added that there had been decisions or tne united states su preme court construing this word when used In such a case to mean "must." "If this conservation policy could be extended to privately owned lands as yet undeveloped I would be hesrtilv in favor of it, the Montanan aaid, adding that since it could not. it work ed a hardship on the public land states.

A large committee of farmers and businessmen discussed the matter Tuesday morning with County Judge C. P. Barnard and County Commis sioner Clinton Hurd. County Com missioner Oral C. Crowe waa detained by Ulness in hla family so the discus sion was kept on an informal basis. H. C. Wheeler, of Pleasant HiU. A. R. Uray, of Gray's Cash and Carry Store, and Market Master Will A. Ayres outlined the proposition from the point of view of those backing the market and it is somewhat more ambitious than at first proposed. More Land Needed It calls for taking not only all of the present space now occupied by market buildings but a siieable strip of land to the rear and north of the county Jail which is now occupied by the jail woodhouses and store buildings. It would be necessary also to have space for a service alley which would run between the jail and the new market house from Eighth avenue around to Park street. On this tract the merchants and farmers would put up an L-shaped maricet nouse ot nouow uie construc tion, not permanent, but of substan tial design and ao arranged that it could be heated in winter and equip ped with the most modern refrigera tion and sanitation devices through out the year. The cost of the build ing would be about $9,000 of which the farmers would contribute about $3,000 and the merchants about $Mt 000. In addition the farmers would sjend $5,000 on modern equipment in- A large part of this money is said to be already pledged and the con sent of the county to use the land is held to be the only thing now In the way. Earlier projects for a more permanent and costly market build- (TURN TO PAGE 2) . About $10,000 of the $15,000 to be raised by subscription for this year's expenses of the Eugene cham ber of commerce haa been pledged, according to Robert Callaban, chair man of the campaign. Members of the committee are still active In the drive, which is for run ning expenses for the remainder of this year. Early this fall the 1030 ex pense money will be raised. Nursery Feature mil Help Mothers Going To Guard Cooking School A day nursery, complete with the moat modern equipment, and sanitation measures, will be operated In connection with The Guard's cooking school at the Eugene armory Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 21, 22 and 23.

Miss Louise Ruger will have charge on Thurs day; Miss Anne Fletcher on Friday; and Miss Margaret Near on Saturday. B. F. IRVINE RESIGNS AT REGENT MEETING SALEM.

W Agreeing that there is "a certain amount of crime'' in Chicago, Hepret sentative Sabath, democrat, Illinois, contends there actually is less law violation per capita in that city and the state of Illinois than in the south ern states "that have sent the leading and most obnoxious 'dry' advocates to congress." In an extension of remarks In the Congressional Record today, Sabath, a wet, cited government figures show ing that in 1028 there were ten times as many distilleries, three times as many stills, five times aa many lor menters, and more than twice the number of gallons of mash Belted in Alabama, Florida, and Georgia com bined than in Illinois. The three states, he said, have a population 200,000 under that of his state. "And this notwithstanding that the lews are not enforced in these dry states to the extent that they are In my state," he added. "I admit that we have a certain amount of crime in Chicago," ha do- dared, but where is the community or the dry city that has not? Inves tigation will show there ia no more crime in Chicago In proportion to lta enormous population than in any other city or' section of the United States."
