Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS I
ERE la a good depression story.
related to this writer yesterday:
Up at Pullman, when the Wash
ington agricultural college U locat
ed, a man showed up one day re
cently and applied for a Job. "I need
It," he explained; need it bad. I
haven't had a day's work In eight
months.
"I've sent my wife back to her
folks, and I've put the children In
. an orphan asylum. Why, d n It all,
I'm even about to lose my carl"
SPEAKING of depressions, here Is a
new way to tell whether times
are good or bad comparative sales
of tailor-made cigarettes and the
kind of tobacco out of which you
roll your own;
About a couple of years ago, a
rather well known figure In the bus
iness World acquired something of a
reputation by beating t by several
weeks the government's estimates of
business activity In various parts of,
the country, and his figures were
surprisingly accurate.
Asked how he did It, he explained:
I merely take the record of sales
of factory-made cigarettes and the
tobscco out of which cigarettes are
rolled by hand. Where sales of fac
tory-made cigarettes are up, business
Is spt to be more active and employ
ment fairly good.
' "But where sales of tobacco and
cigarette papers are up, business Is
Inclined to be slower and employ
ment less abundant." '
If ERE Is the way he explains' It:
"When business Is reasonably
good and employment fair, people
are Inclined to buy factory-made clg-
" arettes. But when business A. not
so good and more people are out of
work, they economize by rolling their
own."
f HERE Is a tip
If you are touchy about your
age, dont let anybody try these new
age cards on you. They are simply
uncanny.
The owner of the cards hands them
to you. They are covered with fig
ures and you tell him whether the
figure corresponding to your age Is
on this card or that, and zlpt he
tells you how old you are Just like
that.
The way science Is progressing,
there won't be any secrets left be
fore long.
MAINE, as you are probably tired
of reading by this time, hss
gone Democratlo, electing a Demo
cratic governor and two Democratalc
congressmen out of total of three.
In the Washington primaries on
Tuesday, the Democrats Increase
heavily the number of votes cast,
while there Is a falling off of Re
publican votes.
N ARIZONA, as these words are
I
written, B. B. Moeur hss a com
manding lead for the Democratalc
nomination for governor over George
W. P. Hunt.
Hunt la the INCUMBENT, which Is
a nice big political word meaning the
fellow on the Job.
r
LOUISIANA, Congressman John
H. Overton, advocate of a "soak
the rich" policy and protege of the
fiery Huey P. Long, has a heavy lead
over Edwin 8. Brousiard, also an In
cumbent, for the Democratlo nomi
nation for tfie office of United States
senator which In Louisiana Is equiv
alent to election.
Up In Washington, they era vot
ing heavily for Vlo Meyers, the
downing orchestra lesder who msde
such a publicity splash In the cam
paign for msyor of Seattle although
he was defeated for that office for
the office of lieutenant governor.
i-pHESK are all signs of the times.
People are discontented, and
when people are discontented their
Inclination la to do away wltfi what
IS and try out something NEW.

MORE COUNTRY CLUB, Sept. 18.
(AP) An International final for the
United States amateur golf cham
pionship seemed virtually assured to
day as Ross (Sandy) Somerville of
London. Ontario, four-time former
Canadian champion, ahot Into a lead
of six over Jesse Guilford, Boston
veteran. In the first half of the 36-
hole seml-flnnls.
The 39-year-old defending cham
pion, Francis Ouimet, of Boston, was
deadlocked in a duel with 33-year-
old Johnny Goodman of Omaha.
They finished the first 18 holes all
square, each with medal scores of 73,
two over par.
Goodman'a recovery shots and brtl
Uant putting repeatedly aaved htm as
he waged a give-and-take struggle
wtfi the title holder.
Goodman's beat two shots were
recovery from thick bushes on the
short 13th, to save a half ss he got
his bsll out of the green from an
almost unplayable lie, and an explo
sion shot to within a foot of the
16th pin. This saved him another
half and on the 18t,h he got down an
eight-footer to stay even.
Except for his erratic putting on
several holes, Ouimet was steadier,
but could not shake off his younger
rival.
Somervllle's fine golf . emphasized
the Csnsdlan's title threat besides
forecasting the first lnternstlonal
final since Bobby Jones defeated
Phil Perkins, British champion. In
1828 at Brae Burn. No foreigner has
taken the American crown since Har
old Hilton, British star, turned the
trick In 1911.
Guilford outdrove Somerville
sometimes as much as 70 yards, but
he wss wild with his irons snd put'
ting poorly. Big Jess missed at lesst
five short putts while Somerville was
getting down most everything In
sight. The Csnadlan holed a 35
footer to pull out the 11th and asnk
an eight-footer on the 18th. He
took the last three holes In a row
to double his margin.
Somerville ahot the morning round
in 73 strokes to Guilford's 78 and
was always In the lead after the
third hole.

Three patlenta at the Longvlew

mula. The victims, Jennie Branham, 84:
Anna McCullough, 45, and Willie
Shockley, 30, died as they were be

tory to fravlng their tonsils removed.
Supt. E. A. Baber said Miss May-
belle Vtall. 35,. hospital attendant,
was told to prepare a aolutlon con
taining two grains of the drug but
that aha misread the abbreviation
grs." for grains as "grma." for
grams.
Accordingly, the nurse prepared
solution of dangerous strength.
Jennie Branham reacted strangely
when given the first Injection, but
attendant attributed it to asthma
from which she suffered, , ,
Anna McCullough slumped when
t,h anaesthetic was administered to
net? but attendants said that reac

FREED OF ILLEGAL
SALEM, Sept. IS.iJTf'Dr. B. P.
Glesey and Zeno Schwab were found
not guilty of Illegal use of funds of
the Aurora State hank, In a verdict
returned by a circuit court Jury here
late yesterday.
The two Aurora residents have been
on trial since September 6. Judge
Fred M. Wilson of The Dalles was
sent here by Chief Justice Bean to
serve In lieu of Judge L. H. McMa
han, who disqualified himself for the
litigation on grounds of acquaintance
with the defendants.
Counsel for the defense maintained
that hard times, not fraud, caused
the Aurora bank to fall and the Wil
lamette Valley Mortgage Investment
company to go Into receivership. Zeno
and Schwab were the principal offi
cers In both the bank and the in
vestment company.
The defense cited heavy personal
losses sustained by both men.
The Aurora State bank was placed
In the hands of the state bank ex
aminer In February, 1031, and short
ly thereafter the Willamette Valley
Mortgage Loan company went Into
receivership.

vision Up-Courity Feeling
The Gold H1U News, edltorislly re
viewing the county political situa
tion. In Its Issue today, saya:
"Earl H. Fehl. candidate for county
Judge, spoke at Medford last Frldsy
evening In one of a . series of cam
paign speeches. Mr. Fehl made mucn
of the recall against Judge Norton,
and told how he, himself, had been
wronged by the Judge In the libel
case against htm lsst spring.
"In sll of Mr. Fehl's speeches, we
have found, the word 'I' is rather
prominent. But It la used not In
telling what T will do If elected
Judge, but In what 'I' have suffered
at the hands of county officers. If
elected, Fehl would go Into office with
a big grievance which, so far, has
ovsrshadowed his campaign, and
which, we believe would overshadow
his conduct of the office.
"Last spring Fehl made a campaign
speech in Gold Hill and put up
very similar line of aympathy talk,
stating that his paper had been taken
from him, and his business de
stroyed.
"At that meeting, many people
were Inclined to feel aorry for him-
and their aympathy wss reflected In
the primary vote In May, when he
carried thla and the Rogue River
preclncta.
"Since that time, people have found
that perhapa Fehl didn't need so
much sympathy, after all. He Is still
publishing his Pacific Record-Herald,
snd Is still finding fault with every
thing and everybody. And It la not
hard to reason that thla la not the
kind of man who can handle Jackson
county affaire for the next alx years
In a sane manner.
"It la noticeable here In Gold Hill
that his popularity Is on the wsne.
And. we believe It is because people
are beginning to realise that It takes
more than hollering to run a county
It takes common sense, straight
thinking and a willingness to co
operate. Instead of a know-lt-all pol
icy. "Judge Alex Sparrow's shoes are
going to be hard for any man to fill.
So why start out with a handicap by
electing a man that has so much of
hti own troubles thst he has no time
to give to the affairs of the county."

Dr. Wilbur said the chief problem
In making people take an active In

"A great work Is being done among
the children of the nation and I am
convinced the coming generation will
not be so apathetlo when matters of

"Thla present generstlon la being
