Pounding.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 34. Few will
believe It yet, but the wedding of
the administration to its gold price
possible ia not ao strong but that a
divorce la possible.
All the husband's spokesmen deny
It. They assert the policy la perma
nent and Irrevocable. They have to.
They cannot afford to show any elgns
of weakness in the face of this cur
rent opposition.
But down deep underneath, there
are good reasons for "believing that
ttie administration la actually using
the opposition to sound out the coun
try on the subject.
Checking.
The decision as to what will be
done ties In reactions to come from
the hinterland.
Administration tacticians noted
that the sending of checks for cot
ton down south had an effect of
soothing the. demand for Inflation
there. Tney expect also that the
corn-hof, checks now going out to
Iowa and the central west will have a
similar trffect.
Simultaeously, several other Infla
tionary strategies are being tried
the Hopklna relief payment and the
alums clearance plans. These will get
similar checks Into the cities.
Whether these combined quieting
efforts will have enough effect to
stimulate a popular support for the
6prague-Baruch ideas Is the question.
Mode.
Withdrawal from the gold policy
would iu technically easy. All Mr.
Roosevelt would have to do Is to stop
buying gold.
It would not be so easy to devise
another policy for attaining-" 1936
commodity price level. That fact will
make the administration reluctant to
relinquish its existing policy unless
the opposition Is formidable.
Even then. It will not drop this
plan without substituting another
with a similar objective.
Grease.
Agriculture Secretary Wallace la
supposed to be the author of an
eight-word classic tn descriptive anal
ysis. Some friends were tslking to him
about the fact that, when the south
started howling for inflation, the
government started lending money on
cotton at ten cento. Also that when
the corn belt yodeled more recently
it received corn-hog checks.
Wallace is quoted as having ob
served philosophically:
"It's the squeaky wheel that gets
the grease."
Whether or not he said It. It is
true.
Publicity.
Certain republican high command
ers with very good memories are plan
ning some embarrassing moments for
Vice-President Gamer and Speaker
Ralney.
They recall the spectacular fight
Garner and Ralney made for pub
lication of all the money put out
by the RFC. They noted that noth
ing has been published by the RFC
on banks receiving preferred, stock.
They have information tiat Chair
man Jesse Jones does not Intend to
say very much on that subject.
The idea Is to stir up Jones and
make him carry out the Oarner
Ralney policy.
v eiivum lhj at KWU r" U J
can ever find where Oaraer Is.
Absentee.
Another sound money counselor of
the administration has followed Dean
Acheson and Prof. Sprague Into the
port of missing men, but he has kept
quiet about It.
The name is James Warburg. H'.s
figure was constantly flitting about
the Inner money councils at the
- White House, state department and
k treasury, until the gold price policy
' was announced.
He has not been seen since.
Cordiality.
It was more than a diplomatic com
pliment when a state department of
ficial, the other day. told a press con
ference that he was proud to deal
with Boris Sfkvirsky, counselor of the
new soviet embassy.
Por eight years Skvlrsky headed the
Soviet Union information service,
where he quietly demonstrated that
Moscow could maintain a diplomatic
mission without waving a red flag.
In that time he built up frood-wM!
among our officials to a point which
now assure cordiality in diplomacy.
Those who have watched Skvirsky'i
show for eleht years give much credit
also to Harold Kellock, one of the
best public r'. at tons men in the busi

Knox Committee Members
Explain Needs in Legisla
tion Women Are Firm
Against Saloon's Return
SALEM, Nov. 24. (P) LIquorcon
trol advanced to the foreground of
the special legislatve season wth two
hearings yesterday and another sched
uled for today.
Three members of the Knox com
mittee late yesterday explained con
trol problems which the Knox plan
was drafted to meet.
Dr. William 8. Knox, chairman of
the committee, said the essential
thing is "to take profit out of the
business.'
"Shall the bill for liquor control
be drawn for the Interest of all the
people or for the purpose of satisfy
ing the greed and lust for gain o!
small, closely knit groups who have
no regard for the public weal?"
Rule or Ruin.
Dr. Knox continued, "I fear if wo
do not eliminate private profit, John
Barleycorn will saddle us and ride us
to ruin as tn the past."
Dr. Knox suggested the bill be en
acted as drawn and hotel and res
taurant men desiring hard liquor re-
tall privileges submit their request
to a vote of the people next May
Many questions asked by leglslatirs
and spectators were answered by
Knox.
Mbs. Nan Honeyman, also of the
Knox committee, declared ' the sa
loon or nothing like it wilt ever re
turn with the oonaenl of tho women
of the state."
George Neuner of Portland, former
federal district attorney, endorsed the
Knox plan which he also helped
frame.
Harsh Penalties Decried.
"The stato la going into all kinds
of business, so why howl about this
venture?" asked Neuner. He said too
severe penalties defeat enforcement.
The plan was drawn to .encourage
consumption of low content liquor
Instead or hard liquor, he said.
To Senator Goes query Dr. Knox
said the permit form of liquor pur
chase was framed primarily to pre
vent law abuses from, securing enouei
government liquor to conduct un
licensed places wtlh other evils.
B. 8. Martin of Salem, representing
the Christian Federation, urged sub
stitution of the old local option law
for the provisions on that subject In
the pending bill. Another speaker
urged restriction of exploitation of
the business through high-powered
advertising.
Following today's legislative ad
journment, hotel and restaurant men
will be given a hearing by the Joint
alcoholic committee.

OUTLAY IN VALLEY
Here's some good news for the val
ley. Because the Medford Concrete
Construction , company, secured tho
pipe contract for the building of the
Crater Lake rim road next spring,
from the two contracting firms (von
der Hellen and Plerson of this city,
and Dunn and Baker of Klamath
Falls), $8000 will be spent for new
equipment by tho concrete construc
tion company at once. This will also
place the company in a position to
compete with any similar company
on the const, in tho line of pipe man
ufacture.
This pipe contract alone totals ap
proximate $23,000. Most of this
will be spent right here in the val
ley. Twelve carloads of cement will
be purchased from the Beaver Cement
plant at Oold Hill, and local labor
will be employed to the tune of $4060
on this one contract alone. Three
carloads of reinforcing atoel win also
be purchased, and 1000 yards of sand
and gravel uaed.
The transportation bill vylll not be
small. Over 1200 tons of material
will be hauled from Medford to
Crater Lake, Just as soon as weather
permits In the spring.
And with more road work on the
relief program all over Jackson coun
ty It Is believed this Is only a start,
not only for local contracting firms
and the concrete construction com
pany, but for tho business commun
ity as a whole.
In the past large rood building
contracts have gone to Portland and
other large coast cities. Hereafter
thoy should come here.
Frank Rogers of the city superin
tendent's office doesn't know whether
to believe In Santa Claus or not, he
stated today. All bwauna the antici
pated arrival of the Jolly old fellow
In Medford has brought him nothing
but work, up to date. It's the Christ,

There were 10 or 13 men out today
under his supervision, Mr. Rogers
stated, bringing In boughs of cedar,

the desired holiday atrr.szphcre.
The men went out to the Opp mine
region for the greens. The garlands
will go up Monday. Changing of

koop that- she fired a bullet into the
heart of her dauuhter-ln-lsw. Rheta.
while the girl was unconscious was
announced today by Capt. John
Stege.
Breaking down at last after nearly
three daya of exhausting examina
tion, the 63-year old woman physic
ian acknowledged that she had ad
ministered chloroform to her aon'a
33-year old wife, in examlng her for
a pelvic pain of which the girl had
complained.
Bho had gone to her aurglcal of
fice In the basement of her Monroe
atreet house Tuesday afternoon to
find Rheta partly undressed, weigh
ing herself.
Complained of Pain
Rheta complained of severe pains,
Dr. Wynekoop aald, and ahe placed
the young woman on her operating
table and began to administer chlor
oform to ease the pain and facilitate
examination.
Dr. Wynekoop told Captain Stege
sho kept asking Rheta If ahe could
feel the pain and that her daughter-in-law'
continued to answer affirm
atively, Finally, the phyalcian ex
plained, Rheta lost consciousness and
for 36 minutes ahe tried strenuously
to revive her. . - -
When she realized she was ioslng
ground, Dr. Alice aald, she became
panlo stricken.
"All the event of my life flashed
through my mind," Dr. Wynekooo
was quoted, "and I thought of a pis
tol In. an adjoining room."
Feared Blame
Fearful of blame for killing tha
girl with the anaesthetic, she said
ahe obtained the pistol and, holding
It five Inchea from the bare back
of the unconscious girl, fired a single
shot. That ahot penetrated the
shoulder blade and pasaed through
wieia a neart. ,
Saptam Stege placed the time of
the killing between 3:30 and s p. m.,
Tuesday, t a time when Dr. Wyne
koop had aald previously she was ab
sent from the IS room mansion.
For the first time since the mys
terious killing Dr. Alice and her eon
Earle, had met In the polios quarters

night long questioning, sepsrately.
Near the breaking point but always
proteatlng his Innocence, the 38-year
old widower had said he knew of a

mother.
On her shoulder he sobbed a plea
that ahe admit her guilt If ahe had
done It because of her greet love
for him.
Looking solemnly Into his reddened
eyes, ahe ssld, "I didn't do It."
Claimed Olrl Deranged
Earle had told the police his wife
had been termed by a physician as
