timate budgets for road purposes

LESS TUBERCULOSIS EXTRAVAGANT
IN OREGON'S CAM DIES AT RIPE OLD AGE
SALEM, Ore. (UP) Oregon Is the
17th state to be credited with re
ducing tuberculosis among cattle to
0.5 per cent or less of the cattle popu
lation, according to word from the
United States department of agricul
ture. ,
More than 60 per cent of the coun
ties In the nation arc now virtually
free of bovine tuberculosis, tt is said.
Wot of stamping out the disease was
started by the government In 1017
and, with the co-operation of the
states, the Infection has been reduced

61.6 per cent, of the total In the
United States.

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. (UP) When
the borough of Forty Fort voted to
remain dry, It was only a simple mat
ter for Ben Fierman to stay In the
tap room business.
His establishment is located on the
boror.gh boundary. He merely moved
his bar to the kitchen, and the kitch
en to the bar room.
LONDON. (UP) Polly, hailed as
the world's most extravagant parrot,
has died In London. She wqj 33.
Polly had such an enomous appe
tite that she swallowed up more than
half of the '41375 bequeathed her by
Mrs. Ellen Henrietta Harris In 1901.
Three hospitals, which were to get
the money at Polly's death, tried
vainly to put a stop to the parrot's
epicurean tastes. Courts ruled that
Polly could do whatever she pleased
with her money.
Fruit Inspection Efficient.
SALEM, Ore. (UP) Of 33,761 car
loads of fruit and vegetables certi
fied for quality and condition at the

eastern markets, according to Max
Gehlar, director.

WASHINGTON, D. C. (Spl.) A
new and valuable dlvlston of the gov
ernment la coming lntt existence In
Washington so quietly that little is
heard about it. It la a national ar
chives, where, for the flrt time.
Uncle Sain will have a safe place
in which to deposit his "family pa
pers."
A bulletin from the Washington,
D. C. headquarters of the National
Geographic Society tells of the new
archives building and the work that
will go In It.
Tapers Will Be "Pampered"
"The structure, which will house
the national government's assembled
archives. Is one of the handsomiV
i that Is being added to the capital's
notable group of public buildings,
says the bulletin. "Outside It la a
thing of classic Greek beauty; but
inside It Is ultra-modern. It has no
windows, and neither outside light
nor natural outside air will be ad
mitted. 8ummer and winter the
temperature will be kept around 73
degrees. The air will be conditioned
the year round by a special plant
which will wash out all traces of
acid, which greatly shortens the life
of paper. All atone and ir.et-1 work
In the Interior of the building will
be coated with a preparation to pre
vent the flaking of paint or the for
mation of dust.
"The new structure occupies a tri
angular plot of ground at the Junc
tion of Pennsylvania and Constitu
tion avenues, at the apex of the fed
eral office building triangle. It is
expected to be ready for use by the
middle of next summer.
Archivist Appointed
"In many countries of Europe a
national archives has long been an
Import an arm of the government.
Several states In this country have
similar establishments for the pres
ervation of official papers, records,
and other documonts. But for the
158 years since the Declaration of
Independence waa signed the United
States has had no official agency re
sponsible for the documents that
charted Its course as a nation.
"In June, 1934, congress enacted a
bill creating the office of archivist of
the United States. To organize this
new agency. President Roosevelt re
cently appointed Robert Dlggea Wlm
beply Connor, of North Carolina, as
the nation's first archivist,
"Teachers, students, lawyers, con
gressmen, research scholars, writers,
diplomats, historians and others will
benefit when this treasure house of
records Is opened. For the first time
scattered records, treaties, legal pa-
pert and other official documents of
active or historical value wilt be
gathered together In a fireproof, dust
proof and light proof home. Much
of this priceless material now reposes
In dusty filet or In damp cellars, or
in half-forgotten loft, where It Is
difficult of access and exposed to de
struction by fire, light or dampness,
to Hold Record
"Just what sort of material will go
Into our national archives? Mr. Con
nor, the new archivist, taya It It per
haps too early to give any list, but
the act of congress creating fcs of
fice states that all archtves or rec
ords belonging to the government of
the United Statea, whether from con
gress, the law courts, or the execu
tive divisions under the president,
shall be open to inspection by the
national archivist and hi staff, and
that they may be removed to the ar
chives building.
"If a government official believes
that certain records should be kept
secret for a limited period of time,
however, the records win not be
available for Inspection. But the 'se
cret period cannot be extended be
yond the term of office of the offi
cial making the request.
Wilt Cull List
"The national archivist and his
staff may collect any government rec
ords they wish, but before they burn
or throw away any piece of official
paper, thpy must first get the per
mission of congress and the govern
ment agency concerned. To prevent
overcrowding, the archivist each year
will submit a list of useless material
for destruction.
"In addition to papers and docu
ments, the national archives will also
receive motion picture films of Im
portant historical events. In the ar
chives building a small movie theater
will show films to those engaged In
special historical or governmental re
searches.
"Of Interest to scholars through
out the world Is the additional pro
vision for a national historical publi
cations committee, which shall rec
ommend documents for printing and
distribution to libraries, colleges,
writers, etc. On this Important com
mittee are representatives of the state,
war and navy departments, the li
brary of congress, and the American
Historical association.
Many Records Old
"Among the hallowed national
'family papers' that will be deposited
In the new building are: The Treaty
of Paris, 1783, by which Great Brit
ain recognized the Independence of
the United Staes; Lincoln's Emancl
patton Proclamation: the Versailles
Treaty of 1019; resolution of con
gress declaring war against Germany,
April 6, 1917: and the Kellogg pact,
August 37, 1928.
"The original copies of the two
greatest documents owned by the
United States, the Declaration of In
dependence and the Constitution, will
probably remain In the library of
congress. They were placed there a
few years ago by a special executive
order, and another such order would
be needed to remove them.
"The new archivist, Mr. Connor,
has been associated with historical
research work for more than 30 years
From 1903 to 1931 he served as secre
tary of the historical commission of
the state of North Carolina. Since
1921 he hat been professor of his
tory at the University of North Caro
lina."

LORD'S SALVATION
BASIC NEED SAYS
Speaking from the Church of the
Nazarene pulpit last night, Fred M.i
Weather ford, pastor-evangelist, used
at his topic, "The Lord's Salvation.";
He drew hla text from Romans 1:16.
A portion of his message follows:
The primary tragedy of the world
Is sin tn all Its blighting forms. The
standard need of our social structure
is the salvation of our Saviour. The
key to our national success Is funda
mentally baited upon a Christian so
cial recast. The thing that has made
our nation must sustain It. Sin Is a
contraband moral tabrlc rejected by
God, whether It be Individually or na
tionally.
"Christ Is the gateway to all moral
nd spiritual relorm; Indeed. He is
the only power that can refashion a
nation from the fragments of a sin
torn people. What He can do and
what He has done Is the Invincible
test of His power.
"He Is power adequate to still the
tempest by Hit mandatory speech.
None but His miracle working power
can feed a multitude from the lunch
of a mere lad. Death becomes life at
the Instance of His command. The
The sin - bedraggled woman was
changed by the utterance of a lone
sentence, Thy sins which were many
are all forgiven thee.' His Illuminat
ing, sanctifying grace it the power
that revolutionizes a pagan world.
"What he 1ms done is a reflector
of what He Is. He Is the sin emanci
pator. Simeon said of Him: 'Mine
eyes have seen thy salvation.' He Is
the world's Saviour. He knows no
national boundaries or barriers. All
find a common footing and an equal
bar of justice in the meditation of
Christ.
"When it is said that 'God Is love
and therefore He is too good to pun
ish.' It Is forgotten that His love Is
a benediction consequent only upon
obedience to His laws, and accord
ingly Justice win be In '.he form of
reward or retribution as merit or de
merit demands."
As a result of the evangelistic ap
peal there were two professions of
laun and salvation.
