The Medford Irrigation district,

Olln Arnsplger of tho Talent
Irrigation district said today, that
if the present weather conditions
continued, he planned to clean out
tho Irrigation ditches, a task nor
mally performed In February, and
turn In "creek water." Arnsplger
holds that with an "open winter"
looming, there is sufficient flow to
iineet the emergency.
Edward Leach of the Medford
Irrigation district said that they
would pursue the samb course, if
requested to do so by; orchardlsts
and farmers. He huIu 'there was a
light flow in the ditches now, tr
meet minimum needs for pastures.
Save Stored Water.
Both districts would not release
any of their storage water, but use
the normal flow In water sources
which they believe ample.
There has been no rain since
June, and the ground is In need of
water to put It In shape for fall
sowing and plowing.
The fair weather continues and
there uru no signs of rain. Local
weather prognostlcators have con
sulted tho rain churt and find that
the first weeks of December have
been dotted with brisk showers,
Orchardlsts and farmers are
watching the daily weather maps.

WASHINGTON. Nov. Ly. A

dicted today 1 the house would
adopt u resolution to authorize the
JlUlUHHU'OO tax reduction on 192$
incomes before the end of tho first
week of the regular session.
Senate lenders have announced
an effort would be made to expe
dite passage In that chamber.
Hawley's statement today was
even more optimistic for early ac
tion than his utterance itt the time
the tax cut proposal was an
nounced by Secretary Mellon. The
ways and means chairman then
predicted the house would dispose
uf it shortly before taking the
('hristmas recess. If his latost pre
diction materialises, the senate
will be given an opportunity to act
before going home to hung up
stockings Christmas evo.
Stc No Difficulty
House leaders expect but little
difficulty in putting tho resolution
through.
Since it proposes only one form
of reduction a one per cent cut
in the rato on corporation and
individual Incomes; the leaders
believe there will be but slight
disposition on the part of members
to indulge In protracted debute.
The house leadership 'indicated
that If this would develop they
would enforce tho drastic rules ot

The rtusso - Chinese controversy
over tho Chinese Eastern railway
for tho present was shifted from
warlike activities In Manchuria to
a verbal bombardment between
Mosoow and Nanking as to tho ox-
act -status of negotiations looking
toward a settlement. .
Out of the lntenso confusion of
denials, counter-denials, charges
and counter-charges, the following
facts emerged:
Nanking emphatically denied
that Manchuria was negotiating In
dependently for a settlement with
the Hovlet government.
Tho Nationalist foreign office In
sisted that it had -sent a notq to
Moscow containing proposals for n.
Hlno-Kusslun Joint commission to
Investigate border conditions and
for withdrawal of troops by both
sides to at least 30 miles from thn
frontier.
In event of rejection "the Na

tervention by the powers.
I .vest la. ' official Hovlet organ
declared that the "Imperialists"
were seeking to Intervene In order

NEW YORK. Nov. 2D. (tV i
..igger Nate" Haymond, a Pucit'io
coast gambler, who explained that
his business was "speculating on
tho outcome .of sporting events,"
was culled as a prosecution wit n ess
when the trial of tieorgo McMunus
for the murder of Arnold Ruth-
stein, was resumed toduy.
Ruymond was a participant in
tho big stud poker game where,
the state contends, rose the motive'
for McManus to shoot Rothstcin.
He won llHS.QOO from Rothstcin,
but never collected.
He said he knows Hyman (G)Uie)
Hi Her. indicted with McManus, as
McManus' cashier and pay-off
man.
He said ho know the partici
pants In tho game, fivo of whom
have already testified. The play
ers included Meyer nnd Sam Bos
ton, Martin )Red) Howe, "Titanic"
Thomas of Milwaukee, Joe lleru
steln, James Meehan, the host, and
McManuH.
Tho witness said ho entered tho
game about 4 a. m., some six hours
after It had started, and played
through until It ended at 10 p. m.
Raymond brought a new und
unidentified pluyer Into tho game,
a "Charley, ' who won no me
$15,000 from Rothstcin.
Bought laicky Soul
He said ho "bought" Meyer
Boston's lucky seat In explaining
how he knew that Boston had
won.
"How much did you win or lose"
the witness was asked.
"I lost, In cash ,und won In

"Mow much 7'' .
"910,000 in cash and $210,000 In

Ho never collected tho f. O. U.'s,
which were won from Rothstcin.
and which wero merely given by
word of mouth, with no visible
sign of Indebtedness,
Raymond said ho had asked fur
a noto from Rothstein but Mc
Manus and the rest laughed at
him, so he merely took Rothstoln's
verbal promise to pay. v
The defense made Its first offeny
slve when James D. C. Murray
presented a motion to strike out aw
irrevclant all testimony adduced
regarding the big stud poker game
where the state alleges arose the
motive for .the killing. Tho motion
was -denied.
