Union of South Africa, May 14, The prince of Wales today visited the sports ground here and spent an hour inspecting volun teers from, the various services while 3000 children, many of them descend ed from the first Hritlsh settlers who landed in 1820, cheered incessantly. Airplanes circled less than 100 feet overhead as the prince, in the uni form of a colonel of the Welch volun teers, moved slowly from group to group, shaking hands and chatting. So eager were the hordes of native spectators to get a view of the prince that they closed in around him, fight ing, struggling and attempting, to crovd nearer. Two policemen in stantly leaped to the side of the prince and saved him from annoy ance. Newspaper correspondents were less fortunate and were wedged in the jam for several minutes before they could force their way out. NEW YORK, May 13. (Hy Associ ated Press.)

PHYSICIAN'S DISCOVERY SOOTHES AND RELIEVES "NERVES"-NEURlflS For years vast research nnd ex perimenting has been endlessly con ducted to find a sure, safe relief from neuritis, neuralgia, "nerves' and other nervous disorders.

Adv, W.GJ100ML In their desperate appeal to get the people to sign the referendum petitions on the Truck and Bus Bill some of the circulators in the City of Portland and throughout the state are telling the public that the bill increasing license fees charged For-Hire Trucks and Busses is intended to drive trucks and busses off the paved highways. Other petition circulators are telling the people that the bill is only aimed at busses and not at trucks. Neither of these statements is true. There was no intention on the part of the legislature to drive trucks and busses off the roads, but the legislature did intend in passing the law to require these enormously heavy For-Hire Trucks and Busses to contribute more money in license fees to be used in repairing the terrible damage that they are doing to our fine roads all over the state every day. Don't be misled into signing these petitions by fairy stories told you by circulators of these petitions. There is no desire on the part of anybody to drive trucks and busses off the roads, but everybody feels that these ten-ton to twenty-ton trucks and busses that are running on the roads for hire ought to contribute in license taxes more than they do toward repairing the damage they are doing to our. paved roads. The total amount of license paid per year by all the trucks and busses operating in Oregon will not repair ten per cent of the damage they are doing to the roads. Don't sign these referendum petitions and tell your neighbors not to do so. OREGON STATE ASSOCIATION OP COUNTY JUDGES AND COMMISSIONERS -H. L.
