GOLD HOARDERS
Justice Department Drawing
Legal Papers for Action
Warrants for Arrest May
Come During Week
WASHINGTON, Aug. 17. (AP)
Oold hoarders of the United SUtea
have about reached the end of the
rainbow, for the government la go
ing after their hidden pota of gold.
In the Justice department, legal
txperta are quietly drawing up trie
caae against gold boardera. It would
not aurprlaa official Washington If
warrants for the arrest of the hcard
era wore announced by Attorney Gen
eral Oummmlnga when he returna
from hla vacation Thursday or Fri
day, Before he departed for hla vaca
tion, cummlngs said that prosecu
tion of gold boardera who continued
to defy the government would be
started In two or three weeks. The
three vreeka expires Thursday.
' The treasury and department of
Justice have completed Uielr Invest
igations Into a long list of persons
who withdrew gold from banks dur
ing the March crisis. At last re
ports, there still were 380 persons
holding $840,026 in the metal which
they relused to give up. while 27,
481,498, not turned In when Presi
dent Roosevelt ordered It done, had
voluntarily been given to the banks
after Justice agents visited the
hoarders.
In a.1, Justice department agents
called on more Mian 6000 persons
w.lioso names were on the list of
those who withdrew gold. That list
has been checked and recheoked and
finally returned to the Justice de
partment.
The groundwork has been pre
pared; every boarder has been in
formed of the law and of the penal
ties of up to 10 years In prison or
a. fine of not more than S10.000 or
both.

TO SET SAIL ON
OLD IRONSIDES
STATE'S PAYROLL
BTATi HOU9B, SALEM, Ore.
(UPi Approximately 6,000 former
Oregon wage earners are looking to
the state for assistance In obtaining
jobs.
This was disclosed by examination
of J.b applications In various de
partments. The applications have
been accumulating since last Janu
ary. The rush for Jobs "a job of any
kind" 1 the usual plea Is Increas
ing, aa word spreads over the state
of the impending huge highway con
struction program to be financed by
both the state and national govern
ments. T,bs majority of those seeking work
are men and women with families,
One man stated In hla application
that he needed work that he might
obtain food for his 10 children.
"Their plight la pathetic, the stor
ies they tell are heart-rending." a
department official said, "but we
are practically helpless to aid them
until the national government ap
proves the state's highway program."
Some of them have been without
work for two years or more. At pres
ent, tney are obtaining food and
elothing and sometimes shelter from
Yerloua relief organizations. j
Muny say they only want a chance I
to work, that they don't want char- j
Ity. A 71-year old man, In prime of I
health, sought work as a watch mau j
or janitor. "I won't go to these re- j
lief tttatlons." he told attachea. Hla j
application la still on llle. He Is
cheerful, however, that the state :
will find him a Job. j
Ages of Job -seekers range from 17 i
and 18 years to 71 years. The aver- j
age applicant la from 30 to 89 years I
of ago. Most of them are able-bodied, !
wlllliii to do any work.
Some are college graduates, most
of them have had extensive educa- j
Hons and still others hove had but
little learning. Regardless of their
schooling, thouaands are In need. 4
Only 290 of the approximate 5,000 '
so far are known to have obtained
Jobs a'noe filing their applications. I
Others may have secured work, but '
they felled to withdraw their ic-,
quests.
Approximately 700 applications are
on file In the secretary of state's of
fice alone. Most of these applicants
are stenographers and clerks. Other
e part mcnls deluged with applica
tions are executive, utilities, high
way, engineering, motor vehicle, and
the vnrlous Institutions.
White the state treasurer and la
bor commissioner are not Jn position
to furnish employment to many,
their help has been sought by thou
sand in obtaining work In oVier di
visions. The state employs about 6,000 per
sons. Chsnges In personnel In most
departments have been alight in re
cent months.
PORTLAND, Aug. 17. (AP) With
her if learning spread of canvaa set on
the miKsen-mast, ' "Old Ironsides,"
beloved veteran of the navy, will be
viewed by many thousands here Fri
day bo twee n 5:30 and 8:30 p. m.
Comomnder Louis J. Oul liver an
nounced today that between those
hours sail wtl) be spread for the first
time, since the ship has been at
her swan Island berth a study of
prevailing winds has been made and
the hours have been selected when
the breezes are less likely to take
the ship In charge and force her
ahead on her lines hard enough to
carry away the hawsers.
TRUCK BILL OEATH
IS BLOW TO STATE
Serious Situation Confronts
Commission As Loss of
Revenue Threatens Budget-Bond
Issue Difficult
EUGENE, Aug. 17. (AP) A "very
serious situation" confronts the high
way commission, according to Chair
man Leslie M. Scott aa a result of the
Invalidation of the motor "transporta
tion law.
Scott nald here last night the com
mission must make a careful survey
of the condition within a few days
to determine Just what steps must be
taken. Circuit Judge J. O. Llewel-
ling of Marlon county yesterday de
clared the truck law passed by the
last legislature is Invalid.
Bud pet Carefully Drawn.
The highway commission budget
has been drawn very carefully, Scott
said, and the department will lose
$300,000 In fees for the six-month pe
riod already elapsed and about dou
ble that amount next year.
This. couDled with the reduced
revenue from the gasoline tax. Chair
man Scott declared, constitutes a dif
ficult problem of finance and makes
It neoeAary to resort to one of three -
measures. These are: j
First: Curtail maintenance of roads
and highways:
Second: Curtail federal aid; or
Third: Issue bonds.
Bonds Difficult.
I do not think the people of Ore
gon want to Issue bonds." Scott said.
'and If they do, I do not think we
could sell them."
The use of federal- money amount
ing to (6,900,000 entails upbn the
state a heavy overhead, the commis
sion chairman explained. This In
cludes administration expenses, right-
of-way surveys and Items not reim
bursed .to the stste by the federal
government.
The money is required as a working
cash reserve to carry on the federal
aid program. All these amount to
sbout 760.000. "So," he continued,
"with the loss of revenue from shrink
age of gasoline taxes and the loss of.
revenue from the Invalidation of the
motor transportation law, this will
largely hamper the department In
carrying out the federal aid program."
Scott said yesterday's action was
not contemplated when the legisla
ture adopted the 95 automobile li
cense law. The truck regulation and
taxation law was passed, he said,
largely to compensate the stste for
the difference In fees under the old
license rate and the new.
Persia's ministry of commerce re
cently decreed that no more used mo
tor vehicles or replacement parts
could be Imported Into the country.
TAX EXEMPTION
SALEM. Ore. (UP) Doubts ss to
constltutlonslity of the tax exemp
tion proposal, which msy appear on
the general election bsllot of Novem
ber. 1038. are being expressed by
state bouse observers.
The proposed amendment to the
Oregon constitution would allow a
$1200 exemption to all owners or
Oregon property who are residents of
the stste. Residents of other ststes.
who own property here would be as
sessed the full amount of vsluatlon.
It la the last festure that might
render the proposition unconstitu
tional. It Is believed. It would dis
criminate between different causes
of taxpayers, all American citizens, on
basis of residence. That la held to
be In violation of the federal con
stitution. Attorney General I. H. Van Win
kle will soon prepare a bsllot title
for the exemption amendment, but
will Issue no opinion aa to Its con
stitutionality. Opponents must wait
until It becomes a law. If It doea.
then take the matter Into federal
court.
It was pointed out at the stste de
partment, where preliminary Initia
tive petitions were filed, that the
amendment could be made ineffec
tive by assessors, except on einsll
properties. Most property Is assessed
far below It supposed actual valua
tion, and raised assessments to nearer
actual value would eliminate the ex
emption. From propertlea actually wortn
51200 or less, the exemption pro
posal would eliminate all taxea.
Sponsors of the amendment must
obtain 36.687 signatures before July
1, 1934, to place it on the ballot.

Do you know this? An average size tire goes round
395 times every minute at only 35 miles an hour!
Think what happens when you drive at this speed or
faster! Friction develops scorching heat inside your
tires! In many tires other than Riversides this heat sepa
rates cords! It weakens the tire, forms internal blisters!
When you hit a rock or a bump . . . BANG! A blowout!

You need the added protection Riversides give you!
' Riversides' Cords the heart of the tire are made from
extra strong, long staple, premium cotton. Every cord
in every ply is dipped in LATEX 100 pure, liquid,
virgin rubber. This welds the cords into a super strong
unit! It gives Riversides the strongest tire carcass made!
It prevents cord separation . . . the cause of blowouts !
Why We Save
You Money
Of course Riversides are made
in one of America's largest
and best tire factories. BUT
they come direct to us minus
the manufacturer's selling and
general overhead expense.
That's a saving. The second
saving comes from Wards low
cost method of distribution.
These two reasons explain
why we sell high quality tires
for less. It's simple to figure
out for yourself why River
sides are better in quality,
mileage, and safety than any
other tire at the same price.
RIVERSIDE TIRES R

Wards Unlimited Guarantee
For your protection every single Riverside tire is
guaranteed by Wards to give service that is satisfac
tory to you. No time limit! No mileage limit! A tire
has to be extra good has to be extra safe to be
backed by the strongest tire guarantee ever written!
Cord Separation
This shows bow cords inside
tires other then Riversides
are separated by heat. Cord
aeparatioo causes internal
. blisters, weakens the tire. A
blowout is the result! River
sides are Blowout Proof
because of Latex dipping!
