JACKSON COUNTY BANK
sfr2. MEDFORD, OREGON MJf
iTTTT iFIi ll i" I U 7 -'i iniiiiM
SALEM, Ore., Feb. 22. A claim
Of $3000 by the First Nntionnl bunk
of Shrevoport, Ia., on the defunce
State Bank of Portland must remain'
an unpreferred claim, according to an
opinion of the supremo court recently i
in the' case of the Shroveport bank,
appellant, against the insolvent Port
land bank. The opinion written by
justice Hand and affirmed by Judgel
Walter H- Evans of the lower court
for 'Multnomah county.
On February 14, 1022. the Hopkins
and East Leasing company of Port-J
land withdrew from its checking ac
count In the State Bank of Portland
$2000 and' had the Portland bank
wire It to the Shreveport bank to bo
credited to William E. Hopkins. On
February 15 similar action was taken
with a sum of $1000. The followinB!
day the state superintendent of banks
took charite of the Portland bank. Tho
Portland bank on February 15 then
drew drafts on the National City bank '
of New York for the amounts of
$2000 and $1000 In pnyment of the,
telegraphic transfer. Hopkins with-j
drew tho entire amount from the
Shreveport bank upon notice of the
failure of the Portland bank and tho
National City bank refused to honor
the drafts. The. Shreveport bank
then filed a claim with Frank C.
Bramwell, Oregon superintendent of
banks claiming a .preference for the
$3000. Bramwell, In his report to tho
circuit court, listed "the claim as un-
preferred. It was so held by. the cir
cuit court and tho Shreveport bank
appealed to the supreme court.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22. Describ
ing the proposed soldier bonus as a
"squalid and odious gratuity," Sena
tor Bruce, democrat, Maryland, re
cently gave notice In the senate ot his
unaltorable opposition to Its enact
ment of any . of the forms so far pro
posed, i
"If I thought that all or nearly all
ot our World war service men wero
soliciting the bonus," he said, "my
faith in popular rule and In its ability
to resist class pressure would be de
stroyed. I would be driven to the
conclusion the tendency of tho great
body of our voters to break up Into
special groups or blocs, which Is tho
most alarming feature of our political
life at tho present timo, had jeached
its culmination, and that henceforth
government in the United States
would be given over to the wretched
business of setting off one class
against another."
The obligation to bear arms, resting
upon every citizen "Is not a creature
of contract," Senator Bruce said, "and
no element of barter or sale enters into
it." Throughout history, he added,
few things have been more striking
than the persistent contempt held by
all peoples for mercenary Bohlicrs or
those who fought for pay.
"The only satisfaction I can derive
from the proposition Is that It may
give the people of the United States
a new sense of the Importance of de
vising some international plan by
which war may be brought to an end
altogether."
GOODING'S BILL
PORTLAND, Oro., Fob. 22. State
ments in protest against the passage
of the bill of Senator Gooding of
Idaho to repeal section four of the
Inter-state commerce act have betfn
forwarded to Washington from Port
land, it became known here today.
The protest comes from the chamber
of commerce, the Portland Traffic
and Transportation association, the
Pacific Co-operative Wool Growers
association and the West Coast Lum
bermen's association.
The protesting . interests cite that
tiie purpose of the bill to prohibit the
inter-statt , commerce commission
granting trans-continental railroads
permission to make lower westbound
rates to Pacific coast terminals, with
out corresponding reductions to inter
ior points would react unfavorably
upon the interior in later preventing
the railroads passing on reductions to
intermediate points between Chicago
and Gulf points and tho Pacific coast.

PARIS, Feb. 22. French women
who married Americans, especially
during the war, and have been desert

become a , French citizen and giving
them the right to demand a divorce
French women' through their mar
riage ., to foreigners automatically

from alcoholism In Philadelphia do-
creased more than 85 per cent in the
first six weeks of 1S24, in comparison

er's office said today. Mr. Paul at
tributed the reduction to Director of
Public Safety Butler's campaign
against law breakers.

CHICAGO, Fob. 22. An organiza
tion has been formed to obtain tho re
lease of Leavenworth penitentiary's
"Lost Legion" of war prisoner soldiers
who fought during the World war and
who were given prison sentences for
infractions of military discipline. The
committee to renew-cases of military
prisoners isthe official name selected.
A national movement is planned by
tho committee, the personnel of which
is drawn from 24 organizations, in
cluding Gold Star Mothers and Red
Cross Nurses and the various ex-
soldier groups, it is intenuea 10 nave
the trial and punishment of every
Amorlcan soldier now serving sen
tence for offenses in war timo, offic
ially reviewed. ,
Speeches made at the organization
meeting of the committee contended
the last three presidents have taken
part in freeing objectors, slackers and
others, while no executive has lifted a
hand to liberate the men who went
over the top and who were over
sentenced In tho heat of war and for
offenses which-In some caBCs would
draw only a reprimand from a civilian
judgo.
An army board of review Is of no
avail, tho organization contends. A
civilian committee, able to act Impar
tially, must review tho cases, it states.

thinly-veiled hostility giving way to
extravagant praise in tho course of a
few lays.

Fords have a big margin of power and stamina and hence stand
up in spite of the fact that probably half the Fords now running are
actually oil-starved.
But why not give your Ford a chance to do its best for you? With (
proper lubrication lubrication that really reaches the more inacces
sible bearing surfaces such as the wrist pin bearings and the upper half
of the cylinder walls, the average Ford will show a distinct improve
ment in power, gasoline mileage, and freedom from mechanical
troubles.
Zerolene 'T" for Fords, developed by our research engineers after
years of study and experiment, does the lubricating job for Fords
better, we believe, than any other oil hitherto offered to the public.
And it costs not more, but less than any of the special Ford oils now
on the market.
A Ford is an A-l transportation investment. Protect your investment
by proper lubrication'.
