I Head of Unit Hopes.National Headquarters Will Purge Oregon State Headquar ters of Self -Seekers PORTLAND, Ore.. April 17. (AP) Withdrawal of a Towneene: club of 1100 members and demands for a "cleansing proceaa" of the atate pen- elon group presented new dlffieul tlea today to John H. Weir. Town aend trouble-shooter. M. K. Wlgton, president of Port land club No. 7, returned the unlt'a charter to State Manager James Lo gan with the etatement "we shell go on aa loyal Townaend workers and trust the O. A. R. P., Ltd.. na tional headquarters, will see fit to cleanse the state headquartera of tte self-seekers who are wrecking the movement." Wlgton also said "we positively refuse to recognise the leadership and policies of tha present state leaders." State Manager Logan earlier this week cited officials of club 7 to ex plain why ordera to bar Luther Eggertsen as Townsend speaker were Ignored. A substitute sent by Logan to a club meeting was denied tht floor. Officials of the -club declined to attend a scheduled meeting with state leaders. Wlgton. In his letter to Logan, ex pressed the hope "we will be again Invited to Join when the cleansing process Is finished." Logan replaced Charlea Hansen a atate manager a month ago. Since that time, controversies over en dortement of eandldatea. club apeak ers, leadership and campaign funds led regional headquarters to aeno Weir from Los Angeles to straighten out the difficulties. Weir termed the controversies due to "mftvoldable confusion." I u J Dallaa,Tsx., police arrested Lloyc "Blaekle" Doyls (above) of 8t Louis, sought since 1933 In eonneo tlon with the kidnaping of aged August Luer at Alton, III. Doyls was nabbed aa ha and a woman rode In an automobile In a real, dentlal section. (Associated Press Photo) Logan said that headquartera waa "discussing what to do about the situation at No. 7." "We haven't reached any decision yet but we probably will shortly," ha added. NAME MARINE KELLY AS (Continued from Pago One.) Itical pressure from Capitol HIU. They do not like It at all. . The army crowd aeema to feet that It waa bad enough to fire Hagood for confidential testimony before a congressional committee, but worse to have Democratic senators get a substitute Job for him. There la no doubt In their mtnda thst this la exactly what happened. Senators Interested In the Hagood case spread the word of hla restora tion two daya before It waa an nounced, and before he had accepted the Chicago post. Note Whet happened technically waa this: Chief if staff Craig noti fied the preetdent he had two poeta open for Hagood, the sixth corps area at Chicago or the seventh at Omaha. By seniority, he deserved the second, at Governors Island-, but that la a choice post. Mr. Roosevelt celled Ha good to the White House and told him he could have either Chicago or Omaha. Hagood wanted neither. So he took Chicago. But then Halle Beiasale'e men be came foolishly overconfident and considered themselves a match tor the Italians In direct modern war fare. This waa their big mistake. PORTLAND, April 17. (API Nan Wood Honeyman. vice chairman of the Democratic atate centra com mittee, selected seven women today to act as regional adviaora. They are Mrs. U. S. Burt, Corvalll. Miss Gladys Everett. Portland. Mrs. C. L Larcom, Baker, Mra. Harry Burke. Astoria, Miss Marjorle Kelly, Medford, Mra. C. P. Becker, Bend, and Miss Eva Nelson, Pendleton. Latest. Italian raids In Ethiopia are really peace-table maneuvers. Mus sollnl'a men have now gone beyond their communication and eupply lines much too far for military safety. They will probably withdraw a con alderable diatanee before the ralna start. By that time the league will nave decided either to do something or nothing. This, of course, la the major objective of the raiding campaign. Use Mail Tribune want ads. Italian successes are due primarily to the failure of the Ethloplana to atlck to their original defense plan. conceived for them by smart foreign military advisers. Their plan waa to keep out of the way of the advanc ing Italian army, to oaten small Ital ian detachmenta off guard and wipe them out by overwhelming numbers, The Ethloplana followed It at first snd It worked perfectly. Italian coro- mandera were worried. Nobody knows, but the best guess here has been Nt hat the British would fall to get the league to do anything. Oil sanctlona will not stop Italy now. The only thing thst would stop her would be to close up the Sues canal. That la war, and our best people doubt that Sir Anthony Eden Is capable of It. Diplomatic advices Indicate the smaller nations have had sufficient of tha league for the present. Britain and Prance are using it aa an instru ment of policy and nothing else, prance wants unctions against Oer. many, but not egelnst Italy. Eng land wants sanctions sgalnat Italy, hut not uainst aermany. Prance think only of the Rhine, England only of the Mediterranean and bake Tana. This tnakea everything pleas ant for Hitler and Muaeollnt.
