Treasurer A. C. Walker.
County Commissioner Ralph B.
Billings of Ashland said today he
still had under consideration whether
or not he would seek renomlnatlon
on the Republican ticket. Friends
said he would probably tile, but
with characteristic thoroughness was
checking up before a formal and
final decision.. .
Democratic wheelhorses admitted
a week ago they had sent out
"feelers" to find an opponent for
Billings, but were unsble to "find
anvbodv In the south end of the

The announcement last Saturday
by Willis Mahoney of Klamath Falls
that he would be a Democratic can'
dldate for the U. S. senste, to op
pose Senator McNary In the fall

county Democratic circles. The Klam

the support he sought. Some Demo
crats resented his entry, and so
Informed the Klamath crusader.
In the event the bill at the special
election January 31 to change the
primary date from May-to Septem
ber, the prospective csndidates are
expected to be more deliberate.

New Yorker of prominence wnoee
name cannot be published. Mr. Du
Pont's 1920 tax troublea also date
from January 6, 1936, which was
about two weeks after the Liberty
leamia disclosed that the Du Pont
family had contributed something
like 8180.000 to combat the new deal.
The troublea of the New Yorker
also are recent. It seems that a
banker friend of hla was caught In
the crash of 1031. To help his friend,
the New Yorker gave a considerable
amount of his own money. This he
charged off as a taxable loss. The
Internal revenue bureau let it go
for a long time, but recently began
harassment.
Thus. Messrs. Raskob, Du Pont
and Mr. X Join a long list of anti
new dealers. Including such notables
the friends of Huey Long, An
drew Mellon, Walter Brown, Jim
Watson. You will, however, look In
vain for any tax cases Involving the
wealthy pro-new dealers like Ber
nard Baruch, Straus, Astor, et al.
The Inference behind that situa
tion has been plain since the in
terns! revenue bureau started out
to break up the Long political ma
chine with Income tax prosecution.
It Is that. If you want to stay out
of federal tax troubles, you appar
ently stand a better chance on the
new deal side.
air liner Southerner In an Arkansas
swamp.
Twelve men, tour women, one child
made up the 14 passengers and crew
of three who rode the Ill-fated ship
on the Memphis-Little Rock hop of
the regular New York-Los Angeles
flight last night.
Part of eight of the'bodles were
brought out of a dense swamp today.
Cause Unknown
They were brought out on a flat
bed farm wagon, drawn by two mules
which had difficulty In making the
trip out of the marsh. The bodies
were taken to a Memphl funeral

the causa of the accident probably
never would be known.
Plane and bodies were torn to bits
as the liner crashed through a dense
growth of trees, scattering plane
parts and the victims over an area
400 yards long and about 75 yards
wide. The wreckage came to rest In
a water-filled bog.
Among the victims waa W. R.
Dyees, works progress administrator
for Arkansas: and Frank O. Hart,
wealthy New Yorker, president of the
Hartol Product company.

Two farmera appeared before Coro

tell of seeing the twin-motored

woods shortly before 7:30 p. m.
(central standard time) last night.
Oaylord Dover of Palestine, Ark.,
testified he was walking along high
way 70 Broadway of America route
usually followed by the transconti

when he saw the liner flying rather
low over the adjacent woods.
"The motor didn't sound right." he
said. "Suddenly, the plane dipped

and the ship disappeared."
