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."
A hypothetical question which took
17 minutes to propound waa asked a

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

It will not do merely to state, as do
republican leaders, to explain that
broken promises of continued Inact

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

president and a republican congress.
If they claim paternity for the one

decade prior to 1020, declaring It waa
proven "that during that time there
waa little or no drop In the prices
that the consumer had to pay, al
though those same figures proved
that the cost of production fell very
greatly; corporate profit resulting
from this period was enormous, at
the same time little of that profit
was devoted to the reduction of
prices.
Consumer Forgotten
"The consumer waa forgotten, very
little of It went into Increased wages:
the worker waa forgotten, and by no
means an adequate proportion was
even paid out In dividends, the stock
holder was forgotten."

To Insure the success of his at

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

WIFE LONG ACTIVE
By Marguerite young
CHICAOO, July a. (AP) Who
ever head Franklin D. Roosevelt'
campaign, his right hand In the
democratic bid for the presidency
will be a women Anna Eleanor
Roosevelt, who for 38 years ha been
bis political counselor aa well as his
wife.
Of course she waa coming with
him to receive notification today of
the conventions eelectlon. Before
going to the stadium they had to
have a reunion too with four of their
five children.
That was the first thought of the
three already here as they slowly
made their way out of the stadium
last night to a telephone and a talk
with father and mother.
Anna Roosevelt Dall, 26, James, 34,
and Franklin D.. Jr.. 17. said they
wanted rest which they needed after
their convention campaigning but
Anna confessed she's ready to start
the big Job already. Johnny, 1(, was
coming along with the party. Elliot,
21, remained in Albany with his
bride of a few months.
This favorite niece of "T. R." has
been at her husbands elbow, step
by step all the way from his first
campaign, for the state senate of
New York. She and hla political sec
retary have been credited in fact,
with much Influence In the nom
inees return to politics following the
attack of Infantile paralysis which
so suddenly rendered It Impossible
to continue the athletic activity
which had been the outlet for his
extraordinary physical buoyancy.
Astonishingly vigorous, Mrs. Roose
velt still teaches three daya a week,
In a private school for girls In New
York.
She's the sort who, last winter,
found time to take her sons and some
of their friends down to aee an East
81de bread line evidence of social
evil she would help to erase.
She was one of three heads of all
woman's activity In Al Smith's cam
paign four years ago. She la still
an honorary officer of the State Wo
mens' Trade Union League last ves
tige of the enormous welfare work
she gave up when the family took
possession of the governor's mansion
at Albany.

would male you like her, Carrie
Jacobs Bond, famous woman com
poser, was a visitor In Medford Sat
urday a a member of Captain Dobb
ste's Happytlme crew of Shell's Ship
of Joy, and appeared on his special
program In the morning at the Holly
theater.
With her characteristic little
laugh, somewhst more of a habit,
the attractive musician expressed her
delight In traveling by motor bus
Instead of the Packard cars of other
members of tne troupe, airplane or
train. She left bere shortly after
her performance In a stage for a
Journey down the Redwood highway,
later to return to Crater Lake.
Attired In an outfit, complete In
white, with all of her Jewelry of
white gold, the beauty of her soft
silver hair waa more clearly ac
centuated. Along with some of her composi
tions known the world over, "The
End of a Perfect Day. "I Love You
Truly," and "Just a Wearyin' for
You," Mrs. Bond baa Just completed
another number which wlU soon be
published, "Remember to Forget."
Some of her philosophy, impres
sively beautiful, waa Interpreted In
her poem "The Logger," which ahe
recited aa a part of the. Happytlm
era' program.
"It doesn't hurt to show your
sign," Mrs. Bond said. "I don't
think It makes you good to go to
church, but It .does show that you
believe God should be recognized
and revered."
In a pleasing voice, dropping all
of her g's, Mrs. Bond related her
Journey from San Diego to Victoria.
B. C with the group, and told of
the lovely gardens and trees which
she had enjoyed so much.
Following her appearance on the
stage, as she sat resting in an auto
waiting to be taken to her hotel,
the song writer who makes her home

made previous trips up and down the
Paclflo coast, but none as leisurely
as this.
Fellow members of the ships' crew
were loud In their praise of Mrs.
Bond, whom they voted "The great
est trouper of the company."

ARMY WORMS ON
SPOIL VACATIONS
Their Fourth of July Is sU apolled
and they think the governor should
call a moratorium on thl Independ
ence day, farmers of the Jacksonville
district announced yesterday, report
ing that the army worms have In
vaded their territory.
The picnic planned on Rogue river
will be replaced by hay cutting and
the only ones bsppy over the out
come are the yellow-legged chickens
on Charley Hoover's farm, whose trip
to the platter Is temporarily post
poned. The rancher will spend the week
end combatting the worms and the
first requisite of a successful cam
paign "Is cut the hay," Mr. Hoover
admitted yesterday, gazing mean
while with greedy eyes at a group
of young roosters Just learning to
crow.
Reports of damage by army worms
from nearly aU portions of the
county were received yesterday by
County Agent R. G. Fowler, who Is
sued the following advice to farm
ers: An Infestation of these worms some
two years ago la well remembered
and precaution should be taken to
watch growing crops so that an at
tack by the worms can be nipped In
the bud. At present they are found
mostly In alfalfa fields but there has
been some movement and there will
be more as the worms mature in
size.
The use of arsenate of lead, two
pounds to the 100 gallons of water,
will be found to be quite effective
where the worms are present. Tr's
also seems to set as a repellent.
Poison bait has been effective in
many cases and the following form
ula Is the best one to use:
Bran, large quantity. 25 pounds;
small quantity 1 pound.
White arsenic, large quantity, 1
pound: small quantity, 1 tesspoon
ful. -Molasses (cheap blackstrap prefer
red) large quantity, 2 quarts; smaU
quantity, 4 teaspoonfula.
Mix the arsenic and the bran dry
and add the molasses which has been
diluted with water. Add enough wa
ter to make a dry mash which will
broadcast easily. Mix thoroughly.
This mixture should be scattered
very thinly, using It at the rate of
