FAGE EIGHT MTDFORD MAIL TRIBUTE. MEDFORD. OREGON7. TUESDAY. XOVEMBER 6. 1934. 3DIE.M0U1ED Community Chest Facts OF POLITICAL FEUD (Continued from page on.) radera that machln puns had been used by the killers. Lieut. Edward Griffith, la charge of the at&te police Investigation, aald four shotguns, two high powered rifles, four automatic pistols and two revolvers had been found at Joseph Bruno's home, and that one high powered rifle had been found in his nephew's quarters. One of those who was wounded. Miss Alice McBrlde, said the weapons "must have been machine guns, they peppered so fast." To the mining families that make up Kelayres' population, the shooting was the climax to a factional political war that has been going on for more than a year. Phots Came Suddenly Red fire lighted the street, and banners flared as the paraders swung along, shouting to each other they marched. Suddenly spurts of flame spat from the darkened win dows of two homes opposite each otftior. What happened was described by Charles Drevo, a miner, who was walking about fifty feet behind the leaders: "We had an open air meeting and someone suggested a parade through town, headed by a truck loaded with children, we started down the street a happy crowd in holiday mood. It was Just ft parade of happy people. "There wasn't any disorder, noth ing was thrown we were calling back and forth to our friends In the line and suddenly as the head of the line drew close to the house of Joseph Bruno, county detective and county republican chairman, fire spurted from every window, it seemed to me. "And from the opposite side of the street where Paul Bruno, his nephew. lives, shots came, too, I thought. "Men. women, the children In the truck were caught In the cross fire crumpled to the ground, as everyone ran. Worse Than War "It was worse than war, because of the children and the women. It was like something unbelievable and It still seems too ghastly to remember." Of the wounded, hospital physi cians said they held little hope for Andrew Kontrlshlon, and Domlnlck Perna. 35, of Kelayres. Others re maining In the hospital were John j Galadago, 33, John Lengo, 33, and Edward Veschuccl. The other' Injured were Mrs. Charles Calomenl, 37, daughter of Prank Fiorina, one of the slain men; William Jacoby. 31, Miss Jennie Mc Aloose, 23, Miss Irene Condor, 23, Salvador Salvndrtko, Miss Freda De frank. 2B, Mrs. Mary Devorak, 33. Mary Bacco, Maurice Bonsai r and Daniel Stelbler, all of Kelayres. As some of the paraders hurried their wounded and dying to hospitals, another group surged toward the home of Joseph Bruno, whom the t marchers held responsible for the shooting, threatening to dynamite his home. . Officers Keep Order A semblance of order was main tained by state police and deputy sheriffs, but the crowds on the streets did not leave until Bruno and the others were arrested. To prevent what they feared would be a mass attack the police sur rounded the Bruno home with auto mobiles while taking Bruno from his nomo. "Kin him," the mob yelled, "don't Jet him be a king." Arrested with Bruno and taken to Tamaqua for safety's sake were his wife and daughters, Elveda, 10, and Mrs. Antlonette Bllllg, of McAdoo; their sons. Fred and James, and the latter's wife. Mrs. Delia Bruno; Mr. and Mrs. Paul Bruno; Cella Sracka, and Julio Lcshko, of East McAdoo; Alexander Socker snd his daughter kvb, and Peter Ruiwo, all of Kelayres. Shootlnr Dented Although Joseph Bruno rienlori an knowledge of shots coming from his residence, state police aald the shots were nred from the second floor of his home and from the third floor apartment of the hoiwe of John 8tla dftgo. directly across the street, where Paul Bruno lives. He Insisted he hed Just left the republican organlmtlon hesdquarters. next door to his home, for the day, and had gone home with soma of his co-workera to draw up watchers' papers for party workers from the Lofty district. He snld his family was seated with him In one room when the parade was heard coming down the street from the other end of iown. Some atonea struck his property as the head of the pninde passed, he added, nd then some shots rang out, fol lowed by the crah of stones through his front windows. He said he did not know whether anyone In hit house had fired. Bruno, a county detective, has heen leader of the republicans of K.'eln townVilp for yean. Intig I'ollllrnl strife Last November the democrats won f . What is the Community Chest? A method of raising snd collect ing funds for 7 separate organis ations. Why was the Community Chest organized? In order that one campaign might replace 7 campaigns. How did ths 7 Community Chest agencies happen? Every one of ths 7 Cheat agen cies earns Into being as the result of an Insistent demand and a genuine community need for the service it renders. Every agency was a going concern before It en tered the Ohest. Children do not build orphanages old men and women do not build their shelters alck people do not bulU ths hospitals and sanitariums our boys and girls do not build their settlement and character training institutions. We, the people of Medford, brought these institutions Into being snd, re gardless of ths temporary condi tions, these Institutions must lie maintained. 4. How much does It cost to raise the Community Chest budget? Less than 9 per cent of tht total amount raised. 5. Who says how much money shall be allotted each agency? A budget committee, composed of prominent volunteer citizens. Bach sgency presents an audited statement of Its Income and esti mates Its requirements. These statements are reviewed by the budget committee and a recom mendatlon Is mads concerning each. No budget is fixed for any sgency until it has been approved by the executive committee of the Cheet. 6. Why not let each person do his own charity? Individuals cannot conduct or phanages, hospitals, old people's homes, nor do they want to feed or shelter groups of Indigent per sons, no matter how deserving. Individuals will help for a while, but they cannot continue to as sist families year after year. Fur thermore, it Is Impossible for the Individual to ascertain the real necessity behind requests for as sistance, and If Individuals dis pensed charity, there would be incalculable duplication. 7. Is all of Chest money spent In Medford? (1) All campaign supplies. In cluding printing, posters, etc., arc bought In Medford. (3) The one staff member Is a local person. (3 All supplies for Chest Institu tions are purchased from Medford merchants. (4) Does the Chest pay for the workers' luncheon? No. Bach worker pays for his own. t. Is there much "red tape" before a family can receive help? No. PAUL B.

A court recount reversed the decision, and gave the election to the republicans. The fight wss taken Into the courts and la still there, but the tempers of tna Klein township partisans were not content with dropping It there. They csrrled It Into the schools as the fall term opened this year.

OuW Trrwhr ProcedIng what promises to be an otnor successful basketball season, the St. Mary's All Stars, colorful champions In the Valley Independent league last year, are having their an nual benefit ball Friday night, No vember 9. Ticket sales, according to Publicity Manager Jack BoyI, have so exceeded expectations that It was necessary to lense the Dreamland hall on East Main street while a smaller hall had been considered before. The athletic club promises a real tune at the party ana, irom all reports, a capacity crowd will enjoy themselves. While tickets have been on sale less than a week, the committee re ports unusual response and as a re sult will be able to engage first class entertainers for the affair. When asked about how far the pro ceeds would go toward helping the I team this year, Manager Boyl said: "The team will no doubt be able to get decent uniforms and equipment from the returns of the dance, snd If the final ticket sale proves as good as those so far they might be able to engage some upstate teams to play In Medford this year. This, of course, depends entirely on the way the peo ple of this city support the dance and the early season games." No Grain Market PORTLAND. Ore., Nov. 6. (AP) There was no session of the grain exchange here today. PARIS, France, Nov. 6. (AP) The radical members of the French cabl net withdrew from office today, wrecking the government of Premier Gaston Doumergus. Former Premier Edouard Hen-lot, minister without portfolio under Dou- mergue, and head of the radical so cialists, had been In opposition to msny of the premier's Ideas. The premier was understood to be prepared to give to President LeBrun the collective resignation of the whole ministry which has been in power since me Diooay riots of last Feb ruary. Herrlot is one of the strongest po litical veterans In France and his opposition to the premier, which has caused a series of rumors of impend ing breakdowns in the government in the last few weeks, was regarded as the crux or ths situation. Five other radical socialists sat in the cabinet with Herrlot. The radical group's action was tak en et a meeting of party leaders, and it was indicated Doumergus would oner the resignations formally to President LeBrun at once. L!
