The aupreme sacrifice paid by the Japanese bride of a white youth, as told In dtipatchee from Paris, Is of great Interest locally. Inasmuch as the young husband. Joseph Angel, is the son of a Presbyterian minister who for several years waa in charge of the Presbyterian church at Phoe nix, and who was well known in Aah land and haa many friends here. Rev. Angel and his family left Phoenix m vera I years ago for the charge at Clendale, and later located at Oold Beach, where the family home la at the present time. Joseph Angel was a young man attending public schools when the family waa located at Phoenix. The young Japanese bride, accord ing to press dispatches, committed suicide , Saturday so that her Amer ican husband could Join his relatives In the United States. Tragedy had featured the romance of the pair. Rev. and Mrs. Angel were Intensely interested In foreign mission work and when their young son Joseph, theology student at Berk eley, fell In love with a young Jap anese girl, an art student . at the university, there waa no objection on the part of the white youth's fam ily. An elderly Japanese, however, sought to claim the attractive young woman as his bride, and although details of the marriage of the couple were not given In press dispatches, It is believed the marriage took place In Pari. Angel's father attempted to arrange for the return of hia son and his Japanese daughter-tn-law to this country. Last week young Angel learned by cable that he could not return his bride to this country. He refused to leave her. The young woman was at a clinic, and seemed gay and happy when her husband visited her, according to dispatches. When he left, however, ahe plunged to her death In order to simplify the matter of hia returr. to this country. Those who were friends of Rev. Angel and his family have expressed regret over the unhappy tragedy which has come Into the family. Ashland Tidings. GREAT BRITAIN . OF DEPRESSION (Continued from Page One.) "Later In the year, after the Laus anne conference, 1 shall submit whatever proposals may be necessary to give effect to the measures we agree upon." This decision to hold both accounts In suspense for the present does not imply, he said, that any new decision haa been made "on our policy In this delicate question." Every seat In the .house, on the floor and In the galleries, was oc cupied by a noisy. Impatient crowd. Members and spectators fidgeted through the "question period" dur ing which any member could demand Information about other issue, but Interest waa focussed upon what the chancellor would say. Prime Minister Ramaay MacDonald, who entered during the question period, received a rousing cheer. Widespread sympathy had been aroused by the disclosure earlier in the day that his eyes were giving him trouble again. The Prince of Wales sat In the gal lery over the clock behind the speaker's chair, as Interested aa any one else In the house. A round of cheers from the ministerial benches greeted Chamberlain.

E OF (Continued from page one) day address at Washington last week, and. dealt with a radio address which New York's present chief executive delivered about two weeks ago on the subject of water power, tariff and other questions. The statement of the 1938 Demo cratic standard -bearer, which was on Roosevelt, was: Immediately construed as an attack "I would take off my coat and vest and fight to the bitter end any can didate who persists in any demagogic appeal to the massee of the working people of this country to destroy themselves by setting class against class and rich against poor." For Broad Policy. Citing Jefferson, Benjamin Frank lin and Theodore Roosevelt as cham pions of the philosophy he Is pledged to. Gov. Roosevelt said he was "plead ing for a policy broad enough to In clude every part of our economic structure." It waa a policy, he said, "that seeks to help all simultaneously, that shows an understanding of the fact that there are millions of our people who cannot be helped merely by helping their employers, because they are not employes In the strict sense of the term." He declared that by those mlllons be meant the farmers, the small business men and professional peo ple. "I plead not for class control, but for a true concert of interest," Talks Water Power. The main energies of his address were thrown Into a discussion of water power development, In which he urged national control on the promise that "the problem Is na tional, going beyond state borders." and with respect to the tariff In which he condemned the Hawley Smoot bill. . He blamed It for contributing Im portantly to existing conditions, and urged downward revision, asserting that "a proper tariff policy must be a great change from the methods of the present administration." He de clared that the Increases provided by the Hawley-Smoot tariff "were not based on any scientific analysis," but were "political favors." , j TEYIT t&I&SM Good baking jj"LabJg made BETTER fgJSTaJja with crown FLOUR UilJl?iW4y What Oregon B makes makes Oregon, M I .
