JacJcson county authorities have
asked the governor for extradition
papers for the return to this state
of Leo M. Schroeder, arrested In
Asbury Park, N. J., last Friday, to
serve a three year state prison sen
tence. Imposed for obtaining money
under false pretenses. .With Leo M,
Hicks, Schroeder escaped from the
county Jail June 29 by crawling to
the roof and dropping through a trap
door leading to space outside the
jail.
Schroeder, under Oregon law. Is
liable to a three year sentence for
Jail escape, and the same applies to
Hicks. According to police records
Schroeder served a term In San
Quenttn prison, and Hicks a term
In the New Mexico state prison.
Advices state Schroeder left a trail
of bad checks In hla cross-country
flight. He passed spurious paper In
this city and county totalling more
than $200 and waa arrested at Den
ver and returned here. He bilked
the operator of a Rogue River auto
camp, and was accompanied by two
female hitch hikers.
Hicks waa charged with theft of a
valuable saddle and other cowboy
equipment from Edwin Kubll of the
Applegate, and selling It to a stran
ger In Grants Pass for '$25. He was
frequently Involved In petty trouble
here the police say.
No trace of Hicks haa been found.
He follows mining, logging and farm
work, and la well Known In northern
California, and eastern Oregon.
Russia as it Is Today
Uncensored Revelations in
Stalin's Blood Purge
(Continued truss pact one.)
Closing time for Too Late to Clas
sify Ads is 1:30 p. m.
munlst party by Stalin's steel broom
are nothing new. Often In the past
they have resulted In the expulsion
of hundreds of thousands of mem
bers. But Instead of mere expulsions
there are now widespread executions,
arrests, exiles and dismissals. The
extent of the purge provides clear
evidence that Stalin regards this
crisis aa far more critical than the
tussle with Trotsky In which only a
few thousand were expelled or re
canted their opposition.
This purge strikes deeper and
wider than any previous party clean
out. It ranges from the inner circles
of the government the central com
mittee of the communist party, which
embraces the real rulera of the coun
try through the navy, the red army,
through every department of the
government, to schools, universities,
the communist youth organization
and directors of theatres.
Officials Frightened
Reliable Information about the ex
tent of and reasons for this purge,
always hard to obtain. Is now more
than ordinarily difficult to get. Of
ficials are frightened half out of
their wits. The man In the street
knows no more than la told In the
heavily censored press, which carries
little but vague generalities and
more often nothing at alt. Thou
sands have disappeared from their
posta without explanation and with
out mention in the newspapers. Al
most dally broadsides In the press
about the danger of spies have caused i
all foreigners to be regarded as un-
touchables. Thus, the ordinarily i
meager soviet sources of Information i
have dried up. !
From compilations of Items pub
lished In the soviet press It la known
however, that at least 500 persons
iibvb oem executea ay unng squaas.
Often news of the shooting of
scores. In groups Is printed only In
a single obscure provincial newspaper
and never Is mentioned In the met
ropolitan press. Since there are more
than 10.000 newspapers In the Soviet
Union and no foreign correspondent
or foreign diplomatic mission can
possibly read regularly more than a
few dozen of the more Important
editions, It Is highly likely that many
reports of executions have been
missed.
Total Not Known
For the same reason, the total num
ber of arrests, exiles and dismissals
is purely a matter for conjecture.
Many of the Imprisoned probably will
be released later. The charges against
them cover a wide range that they
were enemies of the people, deadly
enemies of the people, fascist spies,
Trotzky - Butcher mists, degenerate,
saboteurs, bandits, counter-revolutionaries,
wreckers, rightists and di
version lsts.
It Is known that In the past year
no fewer, than 28 commissars and
assistant commissars, and probably
many more. In every principal de
partment of the government have
been arrested, removed or shot. Hun
dreds of members of the commissa
riat of Internal affairs (formerly
the GPU), are now in prison. Most
of. the IS commanders of the 15 great
military districts have been shifted.
Railroad Heads Arrested
It la said that 3000 railway officials
are under arrest. Dozens of street
car union officials and hundreds of
factory directors have met the same
fate. Many professors and teachers
in the principal law schools and di
rectors of the foremost thaaters have
been dismissed.
in 1034, I waa In Berlin during
Hitler's famous "blood bath" when
In one June day the German dictator
suddenly wiped out scores of mem
bers of the nazl Inner circle. To me
Stalin's "blood purge" Is one- on
much wider seals, but the two nave
many factors In common, Including
even the charge of trafficking with
foreign enemies.
Hitler's nazl party soon steadied
after the shock of that bloody day.
and there seems no less reason to
believe that Stalin's fax more zealous,
more closely knit and better dis
ciplined party will weather the pres
ent hurricane.
(Tomorrows dispatch analyzes the
causes of the purge).

A meeting of all beginning teach
ers and teachers who are teaching
