S4500 IN PROFIT
PORTLAND. 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.

to prevent hostilities in east Africa
LONDON It was understood Sir
Erie Drummond, British ambassador
to Rome, was seeking further con

although his efforts were temporarily
unsuccessful.
ADDIS-ABABA Ethiopian officials
said n Duces fiery speech contained
nothing new. being merely an offic
ial statement of the policy Italy had
followed for some time.
PARIS French and English discus
sions with Italy concerning Ethiopia
were "Just friendly conversations not
constituting diplomatic action." semi
official French sources said as in

Mussolini would carry through bis
Ethiopian plans.
VIENNA Government quarters

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repealed nor Is It unconstitutional,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.

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.

sion."
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.
