HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Oct. 26. m Seventeen years ago Charlie Chaplin put a big. floppy cap on a little brown eyed youngster, named him "The Kid," .and started him off to motion picture fame and a million dollars. "The Kid" was Jackie Coogan. Today Jackie Coogiul, now a gang ling youth with a wide grin, had of ficially grown up. He was 21 years old. And tucked away In cash In the bank, In Investments, in real estate, was a fortune somewhere around the million dollar mark. It came Into his formal possession today. This accum ulation of wealth that began when 'Charlie Chaplin brought him to the screen, dressed in ragged, baggy pants and the floppy cap. as "The Kid." CORVALLI8. Ore.. Oct. 26. fly A call for a national crusade "to wrest American government from experi ment and Innovations being at tempted on the great American guinea, pig" was sounded here last night by Senator Frederick Steiwer, (B.. Ore.) Addressing a republican rally. Sen ator Steiwer oharged that the New Deal "l ahot through with commun utie influences." He ssld he was Tiv to admit that the president and his chief lieutenant were motivated "with good Intentions and patriot Urging the republican party "to be ready with a viUl program rather than return to old. snop-worn w Motorist Advised To Change Oil In Car Winter Season With the" approach of the winter season, automobile owners are being j warned by motor and chassis lubri cation specialists to change to lighter oils and greases, in order to mini mize wear and Increase the operat ing efficiency of their cars. Colder temperatures cause oils and greases to become viscous and thlck. As a result, unless correct grades of lubricants are used, motors turn over sluggishly at. the start and gears shift harder a warning In Itself to motorists that a seasonal change should be made. Recent tests com pleted by automotive engineers of the Union OH company of California re vealed that a loss of from seven to ten per cent In power is experienced when summer grades ot transmission and differential gear lubricants are used at prevailing winter tempera tures. This loss of power naturally causes a loss In gasoline mileage. There Is also a greater wear on the leers. Bummer grades of lubricants in the transmission and differential are ant to "channel," or flow so sluggishly as to fall to reach the sur faces of all moving parts, Conse quently, while some parts of, say, ths dlfferentlsl continue to be well lubricated, other parts may run dry and wear sxcessively. There Is no one grsdu of motor oil which Is completely satisfactory for both summer snd winter tempera tures. This, then, mskes It necessary for motorists to change the grade of motor oil as the seasons change. It Is estimated that eighty percent of all motor wear occurs at starting. This ratio to all wear may not be reduced, but the amount of motor wear can be maintained at a mini mum If the proper grade of lubricant Is used throughout the year. Also, a saving of the battery results from proper lubrication for, otherwise, the life of the battery la ahortened by repeated excessive discharges due to turning over a sluggish motor in cold weather. .To overcome power loss, sluggish ! starting, hard shifting and excessive mend the use of correct winter grades of oil and greases.

AMERICA BLESSES, BUT NO! TO-JOIN, L E A G UEEFFORTS Nation Not to Become Direct Party to World Peace Moves, Or Entangled in Europe. By Hobart C. Mo n tee United Press staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, Oct. 38. (UP) The United States tonight gave Its official blessing to League of Nations efforts to enforce world peace. t But at the same time politely declined to become a direct party to those efforts, j In a message cabled to Hugh R, Wilson, American minister to Swtts- ! erland, for deltvery to Dr. Argusto de Vasconcellos, president of ths league committee on coordinator. Secretary of State Cordell Hull said this government "views with sym pathetic Interest the Individual or concerted efforts of other nations to preserve peace or to localize and shorten the duration of war." At the same time Hull emphasized that the United States is pursuing and will continue to pursue its own Independent source of action and does not propose to become entang led in any controversies or conflict which may develop In Europe or elsewhere as a result of the Italo Ethloplan war. The primary and paramount pur pose of the United States, Hull Indi cated In hla note, is "not to be drawn Into the war" and it is Its desire not to contribute to a prolongation of the war. He emphasized that the United States, In pursuing Its own Indepen dent course, had acted In' advance it of the" action taken by other nations. I This, he said, was done In conform ity with the letter and the spirit of the Brland-Kellogg peace pact and other peace obligations of this goy-J ernment.v Hull's me&sage was In answer to a communication from the league com mittee on October 21 inviting this government to express Its views con cerning the peace activities of the, league, including the application of llnrfhclal and economic sanctions against Italy. Hull, In his reply, did not. speci fically mention these sanctions. His note reviewed In summary the poli cies pursued by the United states since the controversy between Italy and Ethiopia first approached a crisis. He laid particular emphasis upon the action taken by the United States in declaring a state of war existed between Italy and Ethiopia immediately upon the outbreak of hostilities. This action was taken without previous complication or agreement with any government. Simultaneous with this declaration that a state' of war existed, President Roosevelt pro claimed an embargo on the shipment of arms, ammunition and the Imple ments of war from this country to either of the belligerent nations. He also warned American citizens not to travel on ships of either country and 1-MINUTE SAFETY TALKS By Don Ht-rold Tee lias! Iran past fhat. red lit. and ttie cop didnt see me FOOLISH, NAUGHTY US! We pay people to pass safety laws and we pay people to enforce these laws, ana then we think it's cute to break them. We think it's smart if we can "put something over." Or, once we have broken a safety law, we probably brag that we know a fellow who knows a fellow who can "fix it." Shame on usl And the funny part of it is, that most aafety laws are fundamentally popular laws. They're OfcJR laws. They're about the only laws that ALL of us really like. We want them for the protection of ourselves and of our children. We want traffic officers and traffic lights and traffic regulations because life would be dangerous without them. Yet, in spite of this, we are Inclined to cheat when we can. Shame on us! A safety regulation is something- we should lean over backward to observe, honor bound, even when nobody ia looking. ; We ought to thank a police man who Rives us a ticket for a traffic violation. Sometimes we aren't entirely to blame, but we'll all have to admit that the general idea of traffic regula tions is great. And we're all anxious to cut down the rising toll of motor car accidents in America, which,) according to The Travelers Insurance Company, was 36,000 killed and 954,000 injured last year. It's even likely to be worse this year. Just think of that! FIGHT ON BLIGHT IS EXPLAINED BY PROF. F. CROMER admonished American citizens and business to forego all trafflo or other Intercourse of whatever nature with either. Visions of orchards free of flre blight, and highly resistant to the other pernicious diseases which in fest orchards were expressed Friday by Prof. P. C. Relmer of the experi ment station near Talent when he made public the results of a con certed drive against the diseases whlrfi beset orchards, a drive that started In 1011. That was the year that Prof. Rel mer first came to soxithern Oregon. The blight had firm root hern then and unless checked seemed sure to doom the pear industry In the val ley. With the patient and analytical mind of the scientist, the professor has selected and culled and bred until now he believes that he has the problem solved. "We haven't said much about -our work up here." he told a group of about 30 prominent orchardista, "be cause we wanted to know first. Now we are getting to the point where we can 'see the actual results of our years of work and we are ready to give advice on blip-lit and other problems." t Included In the initial experiments years ago were 10.000 seedling trees, from the south of Prance. Each seedling had peculiar characteristics all Its own. the quality which Prir. Relmer demanded. Variation pro vided the different qualities so that a process of selection could be car ried out. I Now, 24 years later, the results are becoming apparent. Oi the 10,000 trees, 10 were fpund which showed marked resistance to fire blight Prom these 10 more seeds have been planted, and the seed lings heavily innoculated with blight. The one showing resistance to the disease were developed, and their seeds again tested for resistance. By this slow but sure process oc eliminating the weaklings, a strong strain hia produced several trees which no amount of Innoculatton can poison, and It la from these that Prof. Relmer Is drawing his sword to finish the war against the dan ger. Another accomplishment made at the station Is the discovery, msrte by Relmer, that "measles,1 a pecu liar spotted condition which afflicts Boc pears particularly, is not the result of poor soli, aa had always been believed, but ia In reality contagious disease, of a fungoid type. By experimenting with sprays. Relmer has discovered a method of controlling this disease also. "Mea sles" also have been found amonf Winter Nellis trees, he said. E HARRISON MTLLS, B. C. Oct. 39. (JFi One ride on wild deer's- ant lers is enough for Stanley Hubert, 18 months. His mother, Mrs. James Hubert feels the same way about it. She heard Stanley cry and ran out of her house in time to see a buck bounding away with Stanley. Ma. Hubert called neighbors and they trailed the deer. They found Stanley yellinff lustily In a thicket. i Stanley's sister Mary, 5, said the deer came to them in their yard and licked Stanley's face. He raised hia arms, his clothing caught on the antlers and the deer ran, carrying the boy until the clothing tore. Fourth Quake Victim HELENA, Mont.. Oct. 26.
