At the eloalng sew Ion of 1U annual
convention here the at ate federation
Instructed Its state committee; to Join
the other groups In building:
"A political party separate and dis
tinct from the two older major par
ties, dominated by big bualneaa and
the financiers, for the purpose of
gaining control of the state and es-
tabl lining collective ownership of the
financial institutions and the basic
Industries of the state."

soon plans would come to fruition

movement would have on the Oregon
general election In November.

FAR EAST TANGLE
lONDOTf, Sept. 1. (AP) Once
Ruaia becomes a member of the
League of Nations she will ask that
body to examine the tense political
situation In the Far East, authorita
tive sources here said today.
They expect Maxim Lltvlnoff, Sov
iet commissar for foreign affairs, to
oall to the league's attention the
delicate relations between Russia and
Japan growing out of Russia's oper
ation of the Chinese Eastern rail
way In Mnnchukuo.
The arrest of Russian employes of
tine O. E. R., for the purchase of
which Japan has been negotiating
recently, last week provoked Moscow
to vigorous diplomatic protest in
notes delivered to the governments
at Tokyo and Hslnklng, Mnnchukuo.
Lltvlnoff'a action, If It takes place,
would force far eastern problems to
the forefront of the league's program
when the assembly meets at Oeneva
In September. RusMn's entry Into the
league at the September meeting Is
definitely assured, as the powers
favoring her candidacy have boen
advised that several smaller nations
have withdrawn active opposition.
England, France and Italy Joined

to their attitude on Moscow's ad
mission. In addition to possible considera
tion of the far eastern situation, the
league will be asked to study the
financial and economlo plight of
strife-torn Austria, official quarters
Indicated.
