IMO WILL DC
VOTED ON JAN, 31
Would Change Date From
- May To September
. Party Delegates By Old
. Time Convention" System
SALEM, Ore., Dec. 10. (AP) The
proposed changes In the primary elec
tion law which will be voted upon by
- the Oregon electorate January 31, will
have two major effects upon political
nominees, proponents of the act ex
plained here today.
First, It will change the primary
election date from May until the
flrat Friday after the llrst Monday In
6eptember, thus eliminating the long
term compatgns on even numbered
years.
Second, It will call for the naming
of parly delegates to presidential
nomination sessions by the old-time
party convention system, since the
September elections occur too late for
naming by the primary. Jhe call will
be Issued by the state central com
xnittee. Primary Dates Differ
Only nine states now nave primary
elections In May, proponents of the
change pointed out. Twelve have
them In September, while 10 others
list theirs In August. Several others
. bold primaries In July.
As originally passed in Oregon, the
primary law recognized the value of
short term campaigns since it placed
the primary In May and the general
In June. Later the general election
was moved back to November, but In
the maneuvering the primary election
dates remained as they were.
Under provisions of the act, pre
cinct committeemen throughout the
state will have a direct part In the
election of district delegates to the
national conventions of their respect
ive parties. The county central com
mittees, through the election of their
state committeemen, will be given a
voice In the selection of delegates at
Urge.
Another provision would be placing
the direct responsibility of the elec
tion of national committeemen and
national committee women up to the
state central committee of each party.
Orange Opposed
The State Orange is opposing the
change In the primary and filed ar
guments against the bill for the voi
ds' pamphlet, which will be placed
In the malls next week. Members of
the legislature, which referred the
matter to the people, prepared the ;
favorable arguments. !
The change In the dates was first
urKPd by Oovornor Martin In his pre
election campaign, declaring the long
tcrjn campaigns were detrimental to
the best interests of the state and
fie candidates. 'It was passed and
referrod to the people by the regular :
1036 legislature as an administrative
measure.
Three other proposals will be voted
upon In the January 31 special elec
tion: The so-called "sales tax" bill
to take care of old age relief; repeal
ing the compulsory student fees In
Institutions of higher learning, and
giving the legislature authority to fix
the compensation of lta members, a
constitutional amendment.

Who files much higher than a kite,
But never has a fall.

Who Is the nicest friend to me;
His toys we all play with.
His home Is In the frown North,
He lives all year with ease;
Until the time when Christmas comes,
And then he works like bee.
His wife Is very much like he,
She doesn't have a care;
She tidy's up their ltttle house.
They make a nice old pair.
I've often dreamt I'd gone with him,
Anl seen his dwarfs and elves;
His workshop very nice and clean.
With toys on shining shelves.
SETS LATEST STYLE
FOR WOMEN'S BOB
LONDON (trp, The "Byronlc
Bob." nsmed after the Isdy-kllling
author of "Don Juan." Is the latest
thing In English women's hair styles.
A modified version of the "Eton
crop," it features a long, luxuriant
lock at the front, which Is wared
to fall negligently across the brow
at the side and over the crown In
a manner which the lBth Century
girl found Irresistible In Lord Byron.
Although the hair is stilt shorn
close at the back of the head and
the nape of the neck, it Is no longer
considered stylish to carry the shorn
effect to the sides of the head. The
whole style is more slrilsh in that
the wavy lock prevents the hard ap
pearance which the "Eton crop- gave
to even pretty ficrs.
Women are taking to the new cut
because it Is adaptable to almost ev
ery hat style. Hairdressers favor It
because It requires even more fre
quent trimming than the ordinary
shingle. .
The "Bronle Bob" is particularly
recommended for women with a slen
der neck and well-formed head. It
Is particularly prohibited for full
faced girls.

NOLMt A HURST
ttbelwyn B. Hottmana,
As the president drove up Pennsyl
vania avenue to the executive man
sion shortly before It o'clock, the
court room was filling with specta
tors for the second day of argument
on constitutionality of the New Deal's
farm program.
The administration has declared Its
readiness to raise funds elsewhere
should the controverted AAA process
ing taxes be Invalidated by the high
tribunal. Only yesterday In Chicago,
as he lashed "political advantage
seekers and profiteers," Mr. Roosevelt
stressed "a simple fact" that the
states acting Independently "never
were able and never will be able
to balance the agricultural life of a
nation so greatly dependent on na
tionally grown crops."
Cotton Act I'p
Next In line for supreme court con
sideration was the Bankhead cotton
control act on which arguments were
scheduled to begin today. In various
stages of court consideration were
constitutional challenges of the utll
ity holding company law, the Ouffey
coal stabilization aot and the Wagner
labor disputes law.
Mr. Roosevelt was met at the Union
station by Secretary Hull, his advisor
In the Italo-Ethloplan war, SI no-
Japanese developments In north
China and the reciprocal tariff policy.
Secretary 'Roper, In whose com'
merce department building a tumult
uous business conference was assem
bled under direction of Oeorge L.
Berry, also was on hand to greet the
president.
On the presidential car, which he
Joined at South Bend, Ind., was
Trank Walker. had of the national
emergency council. He planned to
confer with Mr. Roosevelt later.
Budget Takes Time
The budget occupied much of Mr.
Roosevelt's time at Warm Springs,
Os.( during his annual Thanksgiving
visit which lasted from November 2
until he left for yesterday's Chicago
speech. Chairman Buchanan (D
Tex.) of the house appropriations
committee was a visitor there and
returned to urge bringing the 1937
budget within $500,000,000 of balanc
ing compared with this year's esti
mated deficit of $3,281,000,000.
But relief continued a doubtful
factor. Buchanan said that "If" Mr.
Roosevelt asked more funds for direct
relief. It would not be more than
$1,000,000,000. The president has said
relief estimates will be the last to go j
into his budget message. 1

PEASLKYA Opposite Holly Theatre
MOSCOW (UP) Thousands of dra
matlc and musical amateur circles
exist In the Soviet, with most of
them under guidance of professional
theaters.
The dramatic circle of the Caout
chouc plant directed by actors of the
Kakhtangov theater Is one of the
most outstanding. A number of pro
ductions of this circle are on the
level with those of ordinary profes
sional theaters. Sometimes the circles
gradually grow into professional
theaters. Such was the origin of the
Moscow and Leningrad theaters and
of three regional theaters In Mos
cow.
Cases are ma ny. where talented
amateur actors arc sent to theatrical
schools for further study.
To discover talents among young
players, the trade unions regularly
organize art competitions and olym
plads. Music, dancing and singing
schools have been opened in most
of the parks of culture and rest. The
Central Park of Culture and Rest
In Moscow runs an amateur, circus
and a dancing school which trained
number of talented actors, some
of whom performed at the London
International folk dance festival.

ilisation cultivates the unfit and If
It perslsta It will perish, declares
FYans Blom. director of the Tulane
University Department of Middle
American Research.
Blom calls upon archeology and
history of 10,000 years to predicate
hla assertion.
"Today," he said, "we set a ridic
ulously high value on Individual life,
but we also pick our best young men
to be allied In war while the weak
propagate. If I should classify our
time, I would call it the period of
the unfit. We let our healthy ana
strong starve and treat the physically
unfit and those of diseased minds to
luxury in sanitariums and peniten
tiaries. If we persist long enough,
our future generations will be com
fortably unfit and our tribe will per
ish." Because man has failed to evaluate
experience In regulating his society,
weaknesses grow with the march of
civilization, Blom said.
"Why should we not take advant
age of our accumulated fund of hu
man experience?" asked the archeol
oglst. "Ten thousand years and more
of human experience lie back of us.
Should we not teach that archeology
and history are the same thing? His
tory and archeology should present
facts upon which we can build graphs
of past human experience, to pre
pare ourselves for the future.'
