JAMES MATTERN, Texas aviator,
flying alone around the world
tcr at least hoping to reaches Mos
cow 60 hours and 59 minutes after
leaving New York. That li five hours
and five minutes faster than the
time made by Wiley Post and Harold
Oatty In 1931.
" Progress, you see, still continues.
MATTERN was out of touch with
the world for several hours, and
much concern was felt as to his fate.
No great world development hinges
upon his success or failure, hut a
human life was In the balance. Some
times we are more Interested In fcu
man lives than In great world de
velopment. " Let us hope we never become oth
erwise. Human sympathy la a mighty
fine thing. It makes this a better
world to live In.
1IHILE James Mattern Is flying
W around the world, Mrs. Frank
lin D. Roosevelt, wife of the Presi
dent ot the United States. Is flying
from Washington to Los Angeles to
visit her son.
Mattern Is performing a "stunt."
Mrs. Roosevelt Is doing what has be
come a more or less simple, every-day
ithlng. .
Her progress Is followed from point
to point along- the route by ever-
watchful newspapers, but that is be
cause she is the wife of the Presi
dent of the United States and not
because she is flying across the
United States.
BUT don't forget that before the
wife of the President of the
United States could consider flying
from Washington to Los Angeles to
visit her son somebody had to fly
. from coast to coast as a "stunt."
Maybe, the. tlm will come when
people will fly around the world
with as little concern as they now
fly from coast to coast.
It seems improbable at the present
moment, but a lot of Wings have
come to pass that once seemed not
only Improbable but Impossible.
AND don't forgetthat if people DO
fly around the world with as
little concern as they now fly from
coast to coast It will be because
somebody had the nerve to risk his
life to prove that It could be done.
So don't be too cynical about these
"stunts." They lead the wsy to
what we shall later refer to as tre
mendous progress.
ILLINOIS votes on 'repeal of prohibi
tion, and early returns show the
vote rvnnlrig at the rate of about
14 to one in favor of repeal.
That isn't surprising, as the early
returns come chiefly from Chicago,
and Chicago Is one of the wettest
cities in the country. Later returns
' from the country districts will cut
down this percentage of lead.
Still. It is to be expected that Illi
nois will go heavily for repeal.
18 AN indication of sentiment, or
r at least sentiment In areas
where there is somi doubt, Indiana,
which votes the day after Illinois,
will be ' more Interesting. Claims
have teen made that Indiana might
go against repeal.
As to that, we a'lall see when the
figures come in. But don't bet too
heavily that Indiana will go dry.
It has some fairly good-sized cities,
and the big cities back there are
distinctly wet.

Possibly. Still she would have
been slightly "touched." at least If
she .haan's done something crazy, like
throwing kisses to the moon and
stars, to give the appearance of In
sanity It Is such an easy way out of more
severe punishment.

Men Main Point at Issue
WASHINGTON, June 8. (AP)
President Roosevelt and house Demo
cratic leaders neared an agreement
today on the veterans' compensation
dispute.
A special committee of house Demo
crats Interested In veterans' legisla
tion put up a modified proposal to
the president at a three-hour confer
ence and he took It under considera
tion. Mr. Roosevelt made quite clear to
tho group the limit he would Insist
upon in modification of the original
veterans' economy program.
The house members, however, par
ticularly urged some relief for the
Spanish-American war" veterans, a
considerable number of whom would
be removed from the federal rolls
under the economy program.
This phase Mr. Roosevelt took under
advisement with Budget Director
Lewis Douglas and Veterans' Adminis
trator Frank T. Htnes.
Pending a final solution of the
controversy, the house party leaders
deferred again consideration of the
senate proposal to which the presi
dent has severely objected."
It limited the amount the president
could cut veterans' allowances to 25
per cent of what they received when
the recent economy act went into ef
fect. '

ence. Chairman Pou of the house
rules committee, said: "I think we

WASHINGTON. June 8. Messrs.
Roosevelt and Mussolini are getting
very close together under the surface
of things.
It will have to be denied for diplo
matic reasons but it Is nevertheless
true that some extremely confiden
tial notes have recently been ex
changed between them.
Mr. Roosevelt Is supposed to have
started the correspondence when he
was afraid Hitler was going to fly off
the disarmament handle. He sought
Mussolini's cooperation in soothing
the naughty Nazi. Mussolini agreed
and showed Hitler the error In sword
brandishing.
That started what might almost
be called an Internatlonil friendship.
You will hear something about that
later probably at the London eco
nomic conference.
The plain truth la that the United
States and Italy have been growing
closer together the past year. Musso
lini was the only one to pay the
December 16 debt Installment with
out & aquawk. He waa the first to
embrace the Hoover disarmament
plan and probably the only one who
was sincerely for it. He has the con
fidence of Hitler and the fearful re
spect of France.
With Britain weak, he la the
strongest force In Europe Just now.
MacDonald could get nowhere with
his disarmament plan, but Mussolini
put across the Four Power pact. It
removed the immediate prospect of
war.
The only reason the French agreed
to It was because they were afraid to
face O erm any wl th M ussol I nl on
their flank.
The underlying trouble with the
coming London conference rests on
one point exchange stabilization.
European nations privately look on
it as a purely Anglo-American prob
lem. France and Italy are quite well
satisfied with things as they are.
There are two obscure fellows In
our London delegation whe will have
more to say about what we do thsn
any of those you think are big shots.
They are James Warburg and Wil
liam C. Bullitt.
Witrhnrtr Ait ris Tit next to the
throne here. He la on the Inside of!
everything international. He was very
influential in Mr. Roosevelt's negoti
ations with foreiei statesmen who

Annual school election In the
Medford district will be held June
19 at the senior high school for
selection of two directors to serve
three year terms on the board.
Petitions have already been filed
by patrons of the school recommend
ing the candidacy of N. H. Franklin,
present chairman of the board, and
Eugene Thorndike, also a member,
for re-election. Petitions seeking the
candidacy of Dr. I. D. Phlpps were
being circulated by George Iverson
yesterday, but had not been filed,
although more than the necessary
number of signatures had been ob
tained, Mr. Iverson stated.
Mr. Franklin and Mr. Thorndike
have not announced, officially, that
they will be candidates for re-election,
but friends are of the belief
that they will accept. Dr. Phlpps,
also, has not announced his candi
dacy. Two three-year positions are to be
filled on the board.
Under the administration of the
existing board. It waa pointed out by
friends today the schools last year
made the largest saving in taxation
of any department. The mlllage the
preceding year was 27.7, this year
it is 20.1. In the clty'a taxation the
same mlllage of 20 8 appears for last
year and this year. County and atate
have announced a raise of from nine
mills to 10.6. The decrease made by.
the county through adopted econo
mies was more than made up by e.
state Increase, which brought the
mlllage up to 10.6.
Support of Dr. Phlpps for the
position of director also describe him
as the taxpayers' candidate. Dr.
Phlpps was formerly a member of
the school board during the years
that Aubrey Smith wis superinten

Through a little gate, leading into
land of flowers, shadowed by two
giant windmills, throngs of southern
Oregon ia ns are passing today to view
the annual ahow of the Medford Gar
den club, the largest and best in the
history of the organization, including
In its span the forget-me-nots of the
field the flra of the forest, and all
the plants and flowering shrubs, do
mestic and wild, that fall Into the
classifications between.
Fences, made by the local school
children, as well as gates and wind
mills, garden benches and other out
door furnishings, also add beauty to
the setting of the artistic floor plan,
developed by Charles Voorhlea In the
high r-chool gymnasium, where the
show will continue through this eve
ning. The wild flower exhibit, which in
cludes more than 160 varieties, la the
most complete showing of southern
Oregon's native flowers ever present
ed in Medford.
The sweepstakes rose of the 1933
show, a Talisman, grown by C. D.
Thompson, local gardener, la display
ed on a table surrounded by many
other beautiful blossoms in a wealth
of colors, which threaten to rival the
dyeUow., and; .rose blptched. petals of
the winner.
The forest service ex.'ilblt, descrlb
ed aa "more alive and truer to the
forest atmosphere," la composed this
year of the bark, the needles and the
cones of the forest trees, strewn In
an Informal manner about the table.
Incense cedars from the southern
Oregon forest are also used In the
gymnasium to accomplish the wanted
green note and to blend their forest
fragrance with the heavier odor of
the blossoms.
Of special Interest In the wild flow-
er exhibit is a miniature rock garden
made by Mrs. Ethel Wllletta of plants
which grow at the summit of the
Slsklyoua.
In the children's department, where
all displays were prepared by boys
and girls under 12 years of age, ap
pear miniature gardens, bouquets and
nosegays of a delicacy of motif fit
ting childhood and exceptionally
pleasing to adults. The Ideas devel
oped range from the Japanese garden
to a shady pool, where a naughty
boy is risking an eye for a little
girl's anticipated dip Into the water.
Another garden with pool and fur
nishings Is covered with a natural
growth of grass, which a little girl
has been encouraging for some time
preparatory to the show.
Adding a riot of color to the south
cast corner of the gymnasium a stand
of flowers, very similar to those
which add beauty to the streets of
t.he city, has been prepared and en
tered by Mrs. K. D. McCaskey.
Further down the line the display
of the local Japanese colony, larger
than ever before, was attracting much
attention today. It includes In addi

several specimens shipped from San
Francisco for the garden show with
two very fine Japanese prints as
background.

WILL
ROGER?
BKVERLT IHUiS, Cal..- June
7. Attorney Peaora is liable
to have to do like Roosevelt,
go on the radio and tell his

Yours,
