Germany had wait ed nearly three months to hear the details of the two four-year plana he announced immediately after be coming chancellor for the salvation of the farmer and the worker. In expounding his program, he as sailed foreign nations which he said sought to destroy Germany. "We will never bow our necks to a foreign .yoke; we want peace and, lo. other nations turn against us, but they will not succeed," he shouted. He told his hearers they were "not second rate, even If the world wants you to be r. a t.cv.ssnd times." Eight Points Drawn. The eight parts of the program he laid down were: 1. A fight by the government to keep the power It now holds. 3. Awakening of the self-confidence of the German people. 3. A campaign to convince the peo ple that the government seeks only their own welfare. . Compusory labor service for youth of all classes. 5. Freedom from parti amenterlsm and "majority votes' for all creative business and industry.' 8. Relief for agriculture, thereby aiding factory and white collar workers. 7.

TeL 631 Beer Drinkers of Today Lack Former Technique The technique of beer drinking "ain't what It used to be. Here were the words and music to a theme song, woefully chorused by old-timers both inside and outside local dispen saries this morning. "Beer hasn't the authority with the old footrall gone," said one. Then there was the brass spittoon nearby, to carry out the color note," he add ed. "That cuspidor (to you) loaned emphasis to many a self-liquidating argument." "Beer will never seem natural un til the growler daya return. argued another gentleman of experience. "Of course theyli have to put thru some legislation against greasing the growler If the government expects to continue greasing the treasury with the resultant monetary Inflow." Then, as usual, women came In for a certain share of the blame. According to some of the new beer oh 1 tics, there are too many women frequenting the beer "palaces" and lntrdulng lady-like manners Into the art of beer quaffing. "The majority of the modern beer drinkers." sighed one local proprie tor, "still have the homebrew tech que, and Insist upon leaving several ounces lntne bottom of the bottle, for fear of disturbing the imaginary dregs. Its really an Insult to the commercial brewers." "There's nothing that ' takes the edge off of beer drinking like the depression blues," declared another. The modern beer guzzler has no soul. " His whole anxiety Is to get his money's worth out of each 'glass. There used to be that pretty and nonchalant little gesture of blowing the foam off the top of the stein. Now they grab their glass in both .hands and gurp it down, foam and all. Its too bad when people get thst way." Yes, the technique of beer drink ing has changed. But, If the old timers are to be trusted, the thirst Is Just the same. ALL CLASSES IN SALEMSOUP LINE SALEM, May 3.

I WIDER EAST MAIN STREET PROPOSED AT COUNCIL MEET (Continued from Page One.) torneys, however, have Informed the finance committee that they would prefer to have the matter passed on by the supreme court before accept ing the bonds. Harder also suggested that coupons on outstanding bonds be made payable at the city re corder's office here. Instead of In New York, so the city can get the names and addresses of all bond holders, thus enabling the city to negotiate directly with bondholders with refunding plans. Harder said he believed It would be Impossible to sell new bonds at this time, and that refunding would be the only logical solution to the bonds falling due next year. The petition presented by Hub bard asks that Main street be widen ed five feet from Front to Riverside: seven and one-half feet from the east end of the bridge to Jhe east end of the bridge approach, and thirteen feet eight Inches from the east end of the approach to Almond street. Modern Lights Asked. Improvement of the lighting sys tem from Front to Riverside was also asked, by the Installation of an ornamental lighting system. . Costs of the Improvement will be assessed against property owners, ac cording to the petition, with part of the improvement work, mainly the lighting, being bonded under the Bancroft law. Property owners will be assessed $3.70 a front foot for widening costs, and $3 a front foot for lighting cost. . The oouncll also voted to dispense with the services of Harry Moore, manager of the unemployed associa tion, on the grounds that there was no money to pay Moore. The council highly complimented Moore for the work he has done, and intimated that if taxes were paid, finances may be made available so he can be put back at the head of the -group. It is the hope of the council that some plan of co-operation between the Medford association of unemployed and the county relief council can, be worked out. - Moore declared that several pro jects were underway closely affect ing the unemployed, such as garden ing and wood cutting, but the coun cil was determined In Its stand. Announcement was made that the state Industrial accident commission had awarded Mrs. George Prescott 930 a month compensation, so long as she remains a widow. Dogs a Nuisance. Dogs In the city are getting busy in flower gardens and other places where they have no business, the po lice reported, and dozens of com plaints are received dally at the po lice station. As dog licenses have been cut to 35 and 60 cents and the city only receives 80 ' cents of every dollar collected within the city and no effort being made to collect, the city Is without funds to combat the dog menace. The council voted to issue four new beer dispensing licenses, allowed the Southern Oregon Mining association to retain an assay office In the old city hall, and allowed the Salvation Army a room In the old city hall at a rental of $10 a month. City Police Judge Curry reported that he had collected $50 In fines during the past month. Embarking on his first real vaca tion In ten years, M. O.

Different soil, different climate, different temperatures night and day, and different farming methods produced an entirely new tobacco small in size, but very rich and aromatic. This tobacco is known generally as Turkish tobacco; but there are as many varieties of Turkish as there are kinds of apples. Four certain spots are famous for the qual ity of their Turkish tobacco Xanthi and Cavalla in Greece; Samsoun and Smyrna in Turkey. And it is principally from these places that our buyers get thcTurkish for ChestcrBeld. These Turkish tobaccos are blended, in just the right amount, with Domestic tobac cos. It is this blending and cross-blending of just the right amount of Turkish and Domestic tobaccos which gives Chesterfield a flavor that neither possesses alone. O UMtom abut lattea Cb, lester -if -Ac
