OFFICIALS SOLVE BURIAL OF 'BABY' : Traveling at a white heat "with bis hair In a braid," a gentleman made a call at the city police sta tion Friday evening, excited over the Idea that someone had apparently killed small baby, and burled it at the airport, near his farm. The man' wife had seen a couple dig the grave, and place a small bundle In It, Jump Into their black ear with a tan top and speed away. TJnable to stand the thought of unwrapping the "child," after he had opened the grave, the resident came to ask police help. After great preparation, and mus tering of enough courage to stand the ordeal, George Preacntt, city of flcr and H. W. Conger, county cor oner, treinl to the scene of the grave wuere ll of the white wrap pings were removed from the body of a Maltese cat. Coroner Conger "refused to com ment" on the esse yesterday, and Officer Prescott said he would "make no statement until hi attorney (whom he named as Conger) waa consulted."

Decrying radicalism, the governor called the democratic party by tra dition "the bearer of liberalism and of progreaa and at the aam time of safety to our Institutions." At the same time that he invited republicans to break away, he warned "those nominal democrats who squint at the future with their faces toward the put, and who feel no responsibility to the dem&nds'of the new time, th&t they are out of step with their party." Party of Llberalty "Ours must be a party of liberal thought," he said, "of planned action, of enlightened International outlook, and of the greatest good to the greatest number of our cltteens. "Now It 1 Inevitable a,nd the choice Is ihat of the times It is inevitable that the main Issue of this campaign should revolve about the clear facts of our economic con dition ft depression so deep that It la without precedent In modern history. It will not do merely to state, as do republican leaders, to explain that broken promises of continued Inact ion that the depression Is world wide. That was not their explana tion of the apparent prosperity of 1028. The people will not forget the claim made by them then that prosperity was only a domestic pro duct manufactured by a republican president and a republican congress.

He advocated an Immense reforesta tion program, saying "employment could be given a million men" that way. Repeal was demanded of laws that "compel the federal government to go Into the market to purchase, to sell, to speculate. In farm products. In a futile attempt to reduce farm surpluses." Th practical way to help the farm er," he said, "la by an arrangement that will, In addition to lightening some of the Impoverishing burdens from his back, do something towards the reduction of the surpluses of stable commodities, that hang on the market. It should be our aim to add to the world prices of staple products the amount of a reasonable tariff protection, give agriculture the same protection that Industry has today." E To Insure the success of his at tempt to set a new record of driv ing 33,000 miles within 30 days, Eddie Pullon, former race driver, carefully tested various motor fuels and se lected Ollmore Blu-Oreen gasoline for use In the Ford V-8 which he and his crew are driving on Muroc Lake, California, under official ob servation. "Oasollne plays an important part In the success of such a run," says D. H. F. MacPherson, division man ager of the Ollmore OH company. "To drive 33.000 miles means crowd ing three years use Into one month, and unless a gasoline Is the best that can be produced, It can con tribute to the failure of such a test. "The outstanding advantage of Ollmore Blu-Oreen Is that it keeps a motor cleaner than any other fuel, and as a result the motor runs cooler, and with maximum efficiency. A certain amount of motor oil creeps Into the combustion chamber, where It combines with the fused road dust to form carbon, and If allowed to accumulate there, would foul the valves and spark plugs and quickly bring the run to a halt for repairs. The patent Ingredient, con tained only In Illmore gasoellne. loosens up these accumulations and allows them to pass out with the exhaust gases."
