The petition will carry signa tures of prominent Democrats, spon sors of the move asserted. Plan Early Action. " The Initial action to circulate the petition will be taken at an early meeting of the Marlon County Dem ocratic club, local opponents of Goss lln declared. Other clubs will take up the fight in their localities, !f plans of some of the Irate Demo crats here are carried out. Leaders of the move included Ed Priesen and Avery Thompson, Salem: Stanley Brooks. Portland; Vernon D Bull, state representative from La Grande, and U. S. Burt, Corvallls. Bull spent several days In Salem this week on his return from the con vention held at North Bend. Gosslui, organizer of the Young Democratic clubs and Its president for two terms, supported Greenwood for president to succeed C. C. Carl son, who likewise was Gosslln'a can didate the year before. Greenwood won out by a vote of 31 to 19 over A. Ray Martin, Eugene, supported by the Democrats who declared they were "tired of the dictatorship of 'Jim Parley' Gossltn." GosMIn I'n worried. Hearing of the reports his resigna tion would be demanded. Gosslln, seated at his dpsk In his well-appointed office next to that of the governor, said : "Fine, I will sign the petition." The proposed move against the governor-secretary will not be the first attempt made to oust the young attorney from the right-hand place beside the governor. Previous at tempts by Individuals and group's urging the executive to remove Gow lin to date have f tilled and they h we been made con ti uuousl y from the first month of Martin's term. Just what action the governor will take upon a formal petition could not be ascertained. State house ob servers predict this move will end like the rest, but both older Demo cratic officials and thwe who hive been slighted In obtaining state Jobs and appointments declared that with the 1938 elections being eyed by Mar tin for a possible return to his of fice, he will take serious cognizance of these demands. Charge Patronage t'sed. Gosslln's opponents charged thai he had used state patronage to clert Greenwood as president of the Young Demorrats. Prior to the convention GOfslin predicted he would elect Greenwood easily. He said the op position had not gained any strength during the past year, Carlson having been elected in 1936 by a similar mar gin. He denied he had used patron tee as a political weapon.

April 23. 7P) A survey of the Rogue river for flood control -has been recommended as r result of a public hearing before the district engineer at Medford last year. Congressman James W. Mott has written L. W. Wlpperman of the Perrydale district near Robertson bridge. The survey was recommended March 30, Mott wrote, and will be made "as early as possible under the order of the chief of engineers, but It Is impossible to say Just how soon It will be completed. . The extent of the actual flood control work on the Rogue river will depend on what recommendations are made In the report of this survey. The project will then take Its place on the wai department's list of approved proj ects and money will be made avail able by appropriations as rapidly as possible." Wlpperman. officer of a landown ers, association, reported that the re cent freshet swept away most of a peach orchard and cut Into a hop field near the Robertson bridge. FISH CANNERY WORKERS ACCEPT SALARY SCALE LONDON (UP) When Mr. Ernest Simpson slipped out of London and got a 10-mtnute divorce at Ipswich from Justice Sir John Anthony Hawke, her case started a train of events apparently destined to close provincial divorce court to all ex cept the resident poor. Despite Mrs. Simpson's close as sociation with King Edward at that time. Justice Hawke looked askance at transfer of the case from London to Ipswich. He was told that Mrs. Simpson was living at Felixstowe nearby. Since the Simpson divorce, king's bench Judges, including Lord Hewart of Bury, lord chief justice of Eng land, have raised increasingly loud voices against the growing practice of sending undefended divorces to provincial assizes. Until 1922 an English divorce was obtainable only In London. Then pro vision was made enabling poor per sons cases and undefended divorce suits to be heard In provincial courts. Now nearly a fifth of all English divorce cases ' are heard by Judges outside of London, and the Judges do not like it. They find wherever they go a spate of divorce cases awaiting them, in addition to crim inal and ordinary civil actions. Bench Comment Bitter Justice Sir Reynolds Warren Swift in Birmingham recently put back di vorce cases on his docket so that Juries dealing with ordinary business of the court should not be detained longer than necessary. He accom panied the action with biting com-1 ment. Justice Hawke, at Mancneater. asked counsel why a divorc ease had been taken there when the parties lived In the south of England. "I dislike it intensely," he com mented, finally agreeing to hear the i case. ! In a divorce action at Lewes, the ' woman was said to be living in Paris and the man In London. Lord Chief Justice Hewart, sitting, a&ked why "this rubbishy case" was brought to Lewes. He was mollified when in formed that the witnesses to the : adultery charged In the complaint lived in Brighton, nearby, and that Inquiries had been made before the case was admitted to the Lewes docket. One Check Cited The lord chief Justice said he was glad to know there waa a check on such cases being brought into the provinces. The upshot of the matter was an nouncement by N. B. Goldle, M. P.. that he would bring up the question In the house of commons, asking for a ruling by the attorney general that no undefended divorce case other than a poor person's case shall be entered at an assize town. I The only exception he made was where the petitioner or respondent ; has a permanent residence within : the county served by the court, ob- i vlously striking at London social fig- I ures who choose a provincial court j in the hope of avoiding publicity, little enough under drastic English 1 law, the case might receive in the ' capital. A legitimate reason, however, for seeking to have divorce cases heard in the provinces Is the crowded con- ditlon of the London courts. So long . Is the waiting list of London divorce : cases that nlna months to a year may elapse before a case Is heard. In the provinces cases can be decided within a few weeks. There Is agita tion for appointment of at least two additional Judges for the divorce dlv- j islon.
