Ore., May 13. (AP -There's been a lot of loose talk about chain letter profits, but the city of Portland can show you $4,500 It did not have before the chain fad started. The $4,500 is bail money posted by nine "brokers" who swept In on the tide of bigger and better chains. Arrests were made yesterday and last night and each of the nine was re leased on $500 bail. They continued to operate, however, but tactics had chanced. At none of the "brokerage" places today could you get a guar antee that your Investment would be returned. "I have a broker's license, one of the proprietors spieled, "and they (the cops) can't stop me. I won't guarantee your money hack, but If you want to take a chance to make some money, come on In. If the end comes, the remaining cash will be prorated." Arrests were made on lottery stat utes. Unless all play is halted within a day or two. detectives said, the brokerage offices will be treated as gambling resorts and the customers will be arrested for gambling.

EFFORT TO MAINTAIN EAST AFRICAN PEACE (By the Associated Tress) Premier Benito Mussolini's "hands off dictum concerning Ethiopia, de livered before the Italian senate yes terday, left Great Britain today still determined to do everything possible to prevent hostilities in east Africa LONDON It was understood Sir Erie Drummond, British ambassador to Rome, was seeking further con sultation with Italian authorities. although his efforts were temporarily unsuccessful.

' j t J T-fr ' & : y $ OF FIRE DEBRIS SEENMSULT (Continued from rage One.) 68-603 which conferred upon the board the authority to "do that which the plaintiffs complain of. and also thereby depriving this court of any Jurisdiction in the matter." Contrary to the contention of the plaintiffs that the statute conferring the power upon the board was re pealed by implication as well as be ing unconstitutional the opinion stated the statute "has neither been repealed nor Is It unconstitutional, and that It la broad enough to per mlt the defendante to continue with razing operations. The suit, instituted by Henry Zorn, Edwin A. Jory,. Martin Rostvold and Wlllard Stevens, resulted In a tem porary restraining order handed down one week ego, thereby delaying wreckage of the walls which the board of control held to be hazard ous. The plaintiffs brought the suit as Individual taxpayers. Judge Lewelling declared that "even though construing the complaint most favorably to the contention of the plaintiffs, this court concludes that they have not alleged facta suf ficient to show a special injury to themselves separate and apart from that which would accrue to all citi zens of the state of Oregon, and for this reason 'they have not stated a cause of suit and consequently their application for a restraining order must fall." Contentions Refuted Continuing, Judge Lewelling held that "assuming that defendants are acting without authority In the exer cise of a governmental function, they could only be prevented from an un lawful exercise of authority or from the performance of Illegal acts by the state in Its sovereign capacity or by an Individual who has been spe cially Injured Joining with the state in sn ex rel proceeding." The opinion refuted every conten tion of the plaintiffs and held throughout with the briefs filed by the attorney -general, who by reason of hla office, defended the board of control. The opinion was written by the same circuit judge who several years ago declared the state liquor control act constitutional. He waa later up held by the state supreme court in the suit filed by the city of Klamath Falls.

EUGENE CAPITALIST MARSHHELD " CHIEF HAS 'FISHY' STORY MARSH FIELD, Ore., May IS. f AP) Chief of Police Mat Coy of Marsh- field Is not a drinking man. Nor Is he given to variations from the truth. But In the future when he admon ishes youngsters to "Come on now, fess up," he is more than likely to receive In return a wink and a grin. The chiefs most recent story con cerns a stream Inhabited by amphib ian fish, but It Is taking all the ere dulty of his friends to believe the tale. Coy says he was fishing 'way up Lobster creek with L. A. Cxitltp, now mayor of North Bend, and Dr. C. L, Brown, well-known local sportsman, when he had the startling experience of picking up and stuffing into a basket a large fish which had fol lowed a fly right up onto the gravel bar. There are some unkind souls who claim the chief is merely practicing up for Marshfield's annual Ananias contest. The state health department In Alabama has launched a "register your baby" campaign in hopes of stimulating greater parental cooper ation in gathering vital statistics. 26 YEARS EXPERIENCE TELL US WE CAN SERVE YOU BETTER IN Hail Insurance VAWol INSURANCE W3ENGY WNlt I9O0 .lurk son Co.

Time for Action Declaring that the time has arrived for "Oregon and Oregonlana to take decisive action in their endeavors to secure cheap and abundant power for development of the state," he said that those who desire action under the rural electrification pro gram "can get It, buh they must take the Initiative" In organising the local agencies necessary to secure federal funds. 'I pledge them the full eo-operatlon of my office and of my administra tive assistants," the governor said. The governor expressed the opin ion thai utility districts organized under the existing state law "unques tionably have authority to negotiate loans and accept such grants as are proposed In the RFC setup," and ex plained that the extent of Oregon's participation In rural electrification benefits depends largely upon the measure in which the people take advantage of the utility district law. .
