HOWARD (Associated Prew Staff Writer.) SPRINGFIELD. HI., June 12. 7P) "A declaration of principles" setting out the views they hoped will rally support In the 1936 presidential cam paign, wsji adopted with cheers and applause today by mid-western Re publican workers closing their "grais roota" conference of 10 prairie states. "Justice for veterans." although with no specific mention of paylr? the bonua. was one of the planlc read to the delegation by reaolutlons Chair man Ed A. Hayes of Decatur. Tiie gathering declared for preser vation of the constitutional form of government and state rights, "free enterprise against fascism and collec tlvlam. a system of collective bar gaining for labor" with child labor banned and women workers protect ed end & wage scale "equal to the American living standard." Back Old-Age Pensions. Old-age pensions were endorsed. A policy of "economy and thrift with allowance for relief" waa advo cated along with a demand for "a balanced budget by the honest meth od of bringing government expenses within the netion'a Income." The resolutions endorsed the stand of Prank O. Lowden for governmen tal benefits to agriculture and advo cated "preservation of the competi tive system, protected against mon opoly." The second section of the resolu tions report waa drafted as a "dec laration of principles." It included a declaration for "sound currency based on gold and definitely stabilized by congress." The agriculture plank, which caus ed a long argument within the reso lutions committee, said In part: "We endorse the statement of Gov ernor Lowden In this conference that, so long as we have a protective tariff for the benefit of Industry, we should give to agriculture corresponding benefits for that portion of the prod ucts of the soil which goes Into do mestic consumption." .silent on AAA. No mention was made of the AAA, which was both criticized and de fended by some of the delegates at tending the 10-state meeting by mld wentern Republicans. Members of the resolutions com mittee had decided, as a compromise of conflicting views, to quote and endorse the brief statement regard ing agriculture In the major address by former Oov. Frank O. Lowden of Illinois as the convention opened Monday. The resolutions Included a "Repub lican creed." which opened with an endorsement of the constitution and the "constitutional separation of the powers of government." At no place In the second section of the report waa any direct reference made to the Roosevelt administration, bitterly attacked on 18 counts In the preliminary resolutions adopted by ac clamation last night.

The chief executive continued: "If you strive at all timea to pro mote friendship and to discourage suspicion, to teach respect for the rlghta of others and to decry aggres sion, to oppose intolerance with a spirit of mutual helpfulness then indeed your services will be or iuu value to your government and source of satisfaction to yourselves." No Menace to Others. "We maintain an army to pro mote tranquility," the president said, "and to secure us from aggression, but It Is so created and so modest In proportion as to furnish proof that no threat or menace to the rights of others Is even remotely In tended." Asserting hts belief that the nation had "drifted too far" toward a "level unjustified by a due regard to our own aafety." Mr. Roosevelt announced his approval of congressional acts to "accomplish a partial restoration ot the army's enlisted strength." The president also reflected some or his own thoughts as chief execu tive of the United States. 'One of 'the most difficult tasks of government today," h" observed. "is to avoid the aggrandizement 01 any one group and to keep the main objective of the general good clear and unimpaired. Must Consider Forlorn. "The successful commander of an army must give consideration to all j of the units which make up his army and In addition must of ne cessity remember the existence, the j condition and the ultimate strength of his reserves and of the civilian population which Is serving the same cause behind the lines." The president also noted the "priceless blessing of friendship with our neighbors." Mentioning the naval academy, too. he- said these two military In stitutions of the nation "are the personification of democracy in the equality of opportunity they afford, uninfluenced by prior social position or economic standing." Relatives of the new officers or the army surrounded the 1038 class in the bright sun. ' The firm announcement by Mr. Roosevelt of an Increase In the armed forcea brought an Interrup tion of applause. Mrs, Roosevelt Present. Mrs. Roosevelt, who flew here to day from Raleigh, N. O, Joined the president and his mother upon their arrival at the exercises. John, young est son of Mr. Roosevelt, accom panied him to the stand. The president personally handed out the diplomas to the white-cap ped, gray-coated graduates, shaking the hsnd of each. Under the canopy behind him sat Secretary Dern. General Douglss Mac- Arthur, chief of staff, and officers or the first army corps. It was an Imposing assemblage of army leaders. ..-it 1 pj i mM a con ,o oCl9 oC -and m li mL MEDFORD MAIL L TOLD IN PAPER A. W. Lynch, formerly of Franklin. Neb., and now of this city, has Just received a copy of the Franklin Coun ty Sentinel, weekly paper published In his home town, showing graphic ally the havoc wrought by the recent floods in that district. The front page of the little paper has nine pic tures Illustrating flood conditions. Several people were reported drowned In the news story which ac companied the pictures, and a de tailed account of the rise of the or dinarily peaceful Republican river Is given. The story aays that at one time, at the crest of the flood, the water was nearly two miles wide, and all that could be seen from Franklin was a wide sheet of water, the top part of a bridge, and floating debris. Including barns, houses and small buildings. Farm equipment waa lost by many, and many head of cattle and horses and pigs were reported drowned. A few of the human interest fea tures about the flood are reprinted: "One of the worst features about being marooned in the trees wss the fact that snakes and rats also sought refuge there, and the men who were forced to wait for rescue spent a great deal of their time trying to keep the posts out of their trees." "Hearing reports that a huge wall of water was coming, most people deemed such a thing Impossible In a wide valley such as this. It was a real wall, however, although many people can hardly believe It after seeing It. Claude Morris and Paul 8 pence were among the last to leave the Franklin river bridge, where they were taking pictures. After the wall came around the bend, Claude waited long enough to snap one more pic ture before Jumping In the car, and at that they drove In a few Inches of water before getting clear. Men behind the car a distance of about 40 feet had to wade water almost up to their waists. The aver rose from Just over the banks to across the road In a period of two or three minutes." "A pathetic story comes out of the flood from the home of Clifford Mos borger, eon of Mr. and Mrs. D. T. Mosbarger of Franklin. When the flood struck. Mrs. Mosbarger was 111 In her home south of Arapahoe, and as the waters rose she knew she must leave at once In order to escape. She waded more than two miles to a neighboring farm house through the mud and water, and shortly after gnve birth to a baby boy. A Beaver City physician arrived some time after the child was born and mother and son are reported as doing well." Another news story carried In the paper tells about four men building a power boat after the flood had struck, so as to go onto the river and assist in the rescue work. They rushed construction on the craft and powered it with a 60-horsepower mp. tor to buck the rushing waters, the whole Job taking only a few days. BIBLE SCHOOL TO Zlon Lutheran church.

Cel.. accompanied by their I daughter Gladys, are spending sev eral weeks at the resort at Rcky Point, Ore., on Klamath lake. Mrs. Simon, who was a Medford visitor yesterday, will be remembered as the former Mrs. Horace Pelton of this city. Wliils In Medford, Mrs. Simon was displaying to her friends an Inter- tlslng copy of a special silver Jubilee edition of the London Dally Mall, which was printed in conjunction with the silver Jubilee program In England honoring the 25th year of the reign of King George. Ths copy is printed on heavy sil ver paper, and is Illustrated with many pictures of English scenes, and points of Interest throughout the em pire. Mrs. Simon, who visited on the continent and In England a few years ago, received the copy from a friend in London. She believes It to be one of the very few samples of the Jubilee number In the United States. While on a tour of the world a few years ago, Mrs. Simon made many beautiful photographs of scenes In foreign countries. An amateur pho tographer of striking merit, her pho tographs reflect the spirit of the countries in which she visited. Her picture of a midnight sun In a Danish sky, reflected In the water, would do credit to many a profes sional, and studies of German chil dren, Austrian peasants, and one of a coolie driving geese through a Java rice field are highlights ol the col lection. Mrs. Simon also has an Interesting collection of postcards, picked up in every corner of the world. FEHL INTERPLEADER . BRIEFS SUBMITTED FOR COURT'S STUDY AH parties Involved tn the Nleder meyer.
