SILVER AND WHEAT TO BE TALKED AT WASHINNGTON. April 10. OP) .Secretary Hull indicated today that among the subjects to be taken up In the Washington conversations with leading statesment of other countries In preparation for the world economic conference would be restoration of the price of jilver and control of wheat surpluses. The silver question, he said, Is now figuring In the Anglo-American dis cussions carried on through Sir Ron ald Lindsay, British ambassador. "The solution of developing -new and enlarged industrial uses for sil ver" is emphasized as worthy of care ful consideration in the formal agen da for the economic conference. Also advocated for consideration Is pos sible improvement of methods of marketing the metal by producers and currency authorities. Other possibilities are increased use of silver as coins by the principal na tions; an purchase by leading coun tries now on the gold standard or de siring to return to It, of a stipulated amount of silver to be added to the reserves of central banks. Hull emphasized, however, that nothing resembling decisions have been made In the Anglo-American conversations. BLANKS TO LIST Putolic Safety committee of the city council, C. C.

SHE ACTS STIFF AND FORMAL AND WONT SAV WHY Atfui J WHEN I WAS COURTING YOUR AUNT EMMA, SHE TOOK A TURN LIKE THAT "B.O.60NE..t77ce prepares to saq "BLESS YOU, MY CHILDREN" I KNEW GRACE WOULD TAKE HIM AFTER LIFEBUOY PUT AN END TO THAT "B.O." Southern Oregon Writers And Artists to Organize By Maud E. Pool. That creative ability often lies ob scure behind some peculiarity, as in the Instance of Walt Mason, who can write, but who once lay on his back to paint the under side of a wheel barrow, was the thought brought out by Mrs. Agnes E. Hlnes before a group of Medford people assembled at the Holland Hotel Wednesday who organized the Medford branch of the League of Western Writers. "It may be an old man mining along a moun tain trail," declared Mrs. Hlnes, but don't pass him up." It is this thought closely Inter woven in the alms of the league which will come to mean much to South ern Oregon . writers and artists who become affiliated with the organiza tion, and it will go far toward mak ing Medford and vicinity outstanding In the way of creative arts. The Medford group elected the fol lowing officers: Mrs. Atlanta Parker Satchwell, president; Mrs. Alice Cop pin, vice-president and Mrs. A. V. Graves, secretary. Other charter mem bers are Mrs. Gerald tne F. Adams, Mrs. E. E. Gore, Mra. John Peter, Miss Maude E. Pool, Victor Tengwald, and Ernest Rostel. (The latter two already are members of the national organization.) The charter will be left open for the first few meetings in order that others Interested may take advantage of charter member ship. The second meetings probably will be held this week. Mrs. Hlnes Is enthusiastic over the future of the local branch and wished it to be known that membership is open 'not only to writers, but to mu sicians, composers, artists, and all other people interested in creative art. .Those not sufficiently advanced In their work to become members are eligible to associate membership. One of the chief aims of the League of Western Writers Is to discover and promote talent which lack of encour agement or assistance has kept con cealed, and to aid In the marketing of productions, whatever type they may be. The "Rogue River Valley Writers" will be helped to achieve ment through the historical back ground furnished by the president, Mrs. Satchwell. who Is a pioneer and an artist of note. She has much of the history of pioneer days in Oregon contained In articles published in the Portland Oregonian years ago. She has painted Crater Lake from the rim 112 times, the painting of this sce nic wonder being her specialty, and has found world wide sale for her work. The Medford group, with a long list of creative artists through out the county in view, expect to gain a fast-increasing membership. Mrs. Hines has inferred the fascina tion of discovering, through varied and unexpected channels, the unusual work of local residents just since her arrival here. Mrs. Hines hopes to create further Interest throughout the state, know ing that new writers with the direc tion that the league can give, will be able to put Oregon on the map in a manner never before accom plished. The League of Western Writers Is nationally known, and was organized at Seattle six years ago, according to Mrs. Hlnes, Oregon executive, and publicity chairman, who devoted a large portion of her talk to describing the background and history of the society. Portland. Sa lem, San Francisco, Long Beach and other cities of the west have branch organizations. She stressed an un derlying spirit of broad mindedness and co-operation as the basis of suc cess In the work, and the advance ment of the league as a whole, and emphasized the necessity that Med ford people "wake up" to the splendid opportunities at hand. "If you have something nice to say about Crater lake or anything else, don't be afraid to tell the world," she encouraged her listeners. National convention will be held at Long Beach next Au gust, and Oregon has the convention for 1034, which will convene at Port land.

A vaooucT Of Lsvn to Medford three weeks ago, pri marily as a result of the Illness of her brother, J. H Devlin, and has de voted her spare time to the advance ment of her pictures, as well as to thst of the western writers. This author, who centers her Interest in the motion picture studios for the study of technique when In Holly wood, voiced her disapproval at Wed nesday's meeting of the popular type of movies, and announced her ambi tion to raise the standard Of pictures, which was commended by the local group of writers. She gave a glimpse of one phase of her work when she mentioned California's impression of Crater laks: "Why. yes. Crater lake Is right up here in northern California. Just a few miles, and a beautiful place," they told her. "There's plenty to do In the north west, Mrs. Hlnes stated, when telling of the queer story of Oregon' prized wonder. Later she mentioned Cali fornia's willingness to co-operate with her neighbor to the north, and added that the sunny state Is misunder stood. Some of this writer's films have gone to England, the British producers being anxious to help sell their Douglas fir In Canada, and a a result It is understood that Can ada sells more fir than Oregon. Pic tures of the Canadian timber have been sold In Hawaii, and the Islands have purchased the fir. With a note of feeling in her voice Mrs. Hlnes spoke of the unusual beauty of the almond blossoms here, adding that her section of the state does not possess this type of tree. She also Is Impressed with the gran deur of Mr. McLoughlln. and intends to feature these assets In her stories, as well as the city reservoir and the million dollar water. 1 During her stay here she already has written stories of the blue grass, the pears, the Rogue River valley tomatoes, and the Medford Ice, which she under stands Is 100 per cent pure. "I want to use local talent in my pictures," the author stilted In review ing the numerous possibilities of fea turing Medford In her work. If I can find singers or 'musicians, little tap dancers, or children who will film well, I will use them Instead of send ing for up-state talent.' Mrs. Hlnes. who may remain here until Easter, mentioned that Forest Grove, her home town, and known as the "Daffodil City," soon will have thousands of visitors from Portland and elsewhere to view Its daffodils.

Evan Reames, an outstanding Democrat of southern Oregon, may. If things go right, be appointed Judge of the Un ited States court of appeals for the ninth circuit. The curcult consists of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Mon tana, California, Arizona, Nevada, Al aska aiid Hawaii. There la a vacancy on the bench, and all signs point to it being filled by someone from the Pacific northwest. This Judgeship Is tne fattest piece of patronage that President Roosevelt will bestow in the northwest, for It carries a salary of 912.000 a year. Washington has two aspirants for the postlon, Frances J. Garrecht of Spokane, and Samuel B. Hill of Wa tervllle, Wash., a congressman. The house delegation from Washington Is solidly Democratic and Representa tive Hill is the dean of the delega tion, for he alone was re-elected last November. Supporting Garrecht la United States Senator Dill, who waa one of Roosevelt's pre -convention supporters. If the Hilt and Garrecht contest comes to an Impasse, Evan Reames of Medford may be the compromise. The Oregon delegation cannot do much for Reames as the situation now stands because both of Oregon's sen atora are Republicans and have no political Influence at the Whit House.
