(AP) -Herbert Hoover has experienced one of the happiest daya of his life be cause miners here received his "not a former president but as one coming bsck to his old friends." Returning to the country where he waa a student mining engineer be fore the turn of the century, the former president was enthusiastically greeted by miners, some of whom had worked with him in those (Undent engineering days, as he formed the LONDON. ;P)-T-Mra. Violet Van der Elst, a wealthy widow and bualnew woman, who also was left a fortune by her husband, Is pro-pared to stake the whole of her resources In an At tempt to abolish capital punishment In England. She any s 11.000 persons have prom ised to support her campaign, and she reckons that q umber will be doubled before long. At a recent execution. Mrs. Vun der Elst drove slowly around the prison in her great white car, acomptinled by band in another car. At the next execution ahe Intends to have four bands. Her alternative to capital punish ment is 10 to IS years confinement for the murderer, under constant medical supervision, a she asserts madness la the cause of every mur der. Her dlataste for hanging extends to the men who sentence the mur derers, and she talks plainly about Justices Avory and Darling, England's two foremost murder trial Judges. "They have been trying men for 40 years," she said. "Once a m'au gets Into their clutches they never let him go. And Lord Chief Justice Hewart Is becoming Just as bad. "We must be done with half-hearted attempt to abolish capital pur lshment. One of the big societies set up for the purpose takes In 500,- 000 annually, so why should they want capital punishment abolished? It's a business for them. The sooner 1 achieve my aim the more money HI save." Mrs. Van der Elst la not going to appeal to parliament. "Parliament will have to come to u In the end. If necessary we will appeal to the king." she t&. A a biytlnesa woman, she feels that she ha a right to tell the govern ment her views. She owns three con cerns and la a director of 13 other companies. Mm. Van der Elst Intends to be present at every murder trial and murder trial appeal. There will be no demonstrations in court for, as she say, 'if there were ahe would never be allowed to attend another trial. However, any point which she think counsel have missed, ahe will call to their attention by pencilled note. My chief concern,' she finished. rmt be to avoid arrest, for if that happened my cause would suffer." GIVEN TERM; PAROLE (Continued from Page One) parole, The court classified Brenna.i as "a professional operator," and said his prison record precluded leniency. Brantley plead guilty to padding an Insurance claim, following the de struction of a barn last March 13. He admitted filing a claim for 92100 when the value of the property de stroyed amounted to $374. The barn was Insured for 2900 with the Ore gon Mutual Fire Insurance company of McMlnnvllle. Ore. . A petition signed by 03 residents of Ashland, and letters from Colorado ( bankers, sought a parole for Brantley. and told of his previous good record for honesty and square dealing. Brantley Is the father of eight chil dren. He was represented by Attorney Frank J. Van Dyke of Ashland. A large number of Ashland residents were in court. Brantley In hi own behalf said: "I made a mistake, and It wilt not happen again." Brantlpy, aaked by the court If he had anything to say, replied: "There Is nothing that has not been said." Brantley, according to the district attorney's office, cashed a check for 200 upon the First National Bank of Ashland last May with W. J. Lane. Ashland Jeweler as endorsee. Bren nan paid Lane a $10 loan, and was arrested in Portland a month later. Responsibility for payment of the check rests with Lone. In passing sentence upon Brantley, the court said, "I am not inclined to send men to the penitentiary for their first offense. It haa been shown that Brantley previously bore a good repu tation. He is a man of mature years, and business experience. However, I will not grant a suspended sentence, but Instead extend a parole, pending good behavior. , Among citizens In court, to speak in behalf of Brantley were J. W. Mc Coy. Ashland, and E. C. Faber. Cen tral Point merchant. a (Continued from Paga Oner center of a colorful July Fourth cele bration. Soma 6.000 persons gathered under a blistering sun to hear Mr. Hoover decluare llbnrty was being "question ed and attacked from both sides and abroad," and then to hear him ask American to "hold fast to the fun damentals of the great constitutional charter of our liberties.' March 4, 1033. and May 31, 1035, ha been fairly well advertised. The total was $14,536,000,000. of which nearly half wa spent on relief payments and puubllc works ($6,484,000,000). Only $1,050,000,000 was loaned out to business, banks, railroads, home owners and o'hers. The rest went U extra expenses by regular depart ments, paying interest, building ex tra ships, buying stock in banks. From these figures you may Judge what a colossal bear Mr. Roosevelt is holding at the-wrong end. He has at tempted to pull back lately on relief expenditures and has been fairly suc cessful. But he Is committed to poli cies and Is under unprecedented pres sure from the country to continue the enlarged federal responsibility for business revival and care of all needy. How he will ever ease himself out of the expenditures this entails, no one here knows. stand out against Glass and Induce him to give In on the most Import ant points. The changa they hate most Is the one dividing authority (as .they see it) between the federal reserve board and the banks on monetary policy. Under the altered bill, all the banks would need to do would be to win over a single board member and they could Ue up the open market com mittee. You may be sure that provision will not remain In the bill, or else there will be no bank bill. LENGTHY HEARING IS INDICATED BY JUDGMENT (Continued from rage One) Some of Mr. Roosevelt's associates say he is preparing to run on a budget-balancing platform next year. No one-doubts that he hopes to do It, but few outsiders believe he will be able to. The figure show that the encour aging Increase in revenues and the proposal for more and more taxes will not 'do the job. He has a few aces In his sleeve (the goid profit on devalu ation, which Is to be applied to the debt eventually), but the problem Is so vast that a few years more may be required to work it out. A Busplclous quietude settled over the administration aftar Senator Glass rewrote section II of the bank bill. From the published accounts. you would think iiat the new dealers agreed Glass was right ana tney were wrong. That Is not the situation. The new dealers are deeply re.ent;ul of several of the changes and are keeping quiet only because they have a plan. They expect the house to Blind Boy Scouts Enjoy Vacation RALEIGH, N.

The established chlcin erles of International .policies were never more evident there than now. To give you an Idea: The sovlets are preparing to demand a navy SO per cent as large as Great Britain's. They will say they need the fleet to protect the Baltic. Of course, they are only bargaining for other concessions. John Bull has heard about It, and considers It pre posterous. But France Is going to back the soviet demands because she Is tied i to Moscow by agreement. To complicate matters further, Mussolini has told Capt. Anthony Eden that he Is going to seize Ethi opia in October and Britain may do what she pleases. He further told Eden that, if Britain get the Leagup of Nations to let him alone, Italy will remain In the league. If Britain doesn't, Italy will walk out of the league. And If that were not enough, rumors are going around the conti nent that Hitler and Mussolini have shaken hands; that they are cooper ating for territorial expansion at the expense of Austria and the Baltic countries. matter given the Jurora. .
