BUTTAIO. N. T., Aug. 31. (API
Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg urged
America' war veteran today to Insist
upon Immediate legislation to take
the profit out of war.
"It may be hard on our cash regis
ters but It will be easier on our sons,"
the Republican senator from Michi
gan told delegates to the national
convention of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars.
; Vandenberg said he sought "new
rules which will take the dollar signs
oft our battle flags forever."
Besldea new laws to take the profit
out of war, he advised a ban on po
tential military partnerships, loans
to belligerents, and munitions sales
to belligerents.
"We must have no potential part
nerships'." he said. "We must ' be
neither the world's policeman nor the
world's pawn."
"We cannot make fat loans to one
or the other of belligerents and not
ultimately feel the unneutral drag
of a proprietary Interest In the suc
cess of whichever belligerent must
win if we are to hope (vainly) to
get our money back.
"We cannot sell munitions to one
or the other of belligerents and not
excite the natural hatred of and re
prisal by the belligerent not thus
favored."
Vandenberg urged legislation "now
to take the profit out of any future
war."

out of the president's mind." Ore
gon's senator Frederick atelwer and
the keynoter at the last Republican
national convention said yesterday
when he returned from Washington
"Many things IndicrsV Hfr. Roose
velt's interest in a third term," he
remarked. "If he can get away with
a court-packing bill and his bill to
reorganlr the executive department,
and can prevent any reform in the
conventions, his nomination in 1040
will be assured."
Many Insurgent democratic sena
tora have "completely lost confidence
in the policies of the administration
and the Integrity of its processes," he
said. The Junior senator added that
they would welcome a separation
fiom the president but are reluctant
to assume the blame for disrupting
the democratic party.
"If there la a purge," he continued,
"it will be started by the president
because he wants to purge the party
and alough off all elements who do
not follow blindly."
Senator Stetwer said the court bill

Built of Heart
Declares Pastor
Speaking Sunday morning on "Put
ting the Principles of Godliness In
Practice," Fred M. Weatherford. pastor-evangelist
of the Church of the
Nazarcne, drew his -message from
First Chronicles. 22nd chapter, and
also from Eph. 3:33. He said In part:
. "All work of God must begin with
ourselves. The church militant, first
of all, la a struoture made of heart
life. In the highest terms of re
demption the church ts an assembly
of holy temples that have been spir
itually rebuilt.
"When Christ has your love you
aa -
grudge no pains or coat to promote
his kingdom, whether It be personal
soul winning or erecting a bouse of
worship. Let the heart first be sin
cerely engaged for Ood, then the
head, the hands, the estate, and all
will be cheerfully employed for him.
BASIC SPEED LAW
PORTLAND. Aug. 31. (ff) Secre
tary of State Earl Snell described the
basic speed "law as "Inadequate" to
day and called for ftxed limits and
governors on automobiles of convict
ed reckless drivers.
"I am convinced," he said, "that
our present basic speed law. standing
alone as a speed regulation, la in
adequate. - It has a widespread in
terpretation by Individual drivers,
meaning 'No speed limit in Oregon. "
He added that officers have diffi
culty In enforcing a law that pro
vides that a driver shall not exceed
a speed greater than will permit him
to exercise proper control of the
vehicle.
"Left to the Individual interpreta
tion of 400,000 drivers, it la proving
a dangerous practice." he said.
The secretary's recommendations
may be included In legislation rec
ommended to the next session.

OF

The Sterling school will become con
solidated with tha Ruch school aa a
result of a vote taken In tha two
dlstrlcta last week. Consolidation
will become effective upon acceptance
of the votea and counting of tha
Dauota ty the boundary board at
their next meeting In the near fu
ture. Consolidation papera then will
be submitted, to the two schools.
Votes In the Sterling district show
ed fl-3 In favor of the merger, with
11-6 In favor at Ruch. A two-room
school will be maintained at Ruch
with around 46 puplla enrolled. Mlaa
Alleen Inlow of Ashland and Mrs.
Ina Purcel of this community, for
merly contracted to teach In the In
Idlvdual districts, will be employed
to teaoh the combined schools with
the opening of the term next month.
It is believed that transportation may
be effected through cooperation with
the . Jacksonville school, which op
erates a bus here for tranportatlon
of high school students from this
oommunlty.
The majority of Sterling patrons
are pleased with the success of con
solidation, owing to the fact, that
their building la 'antiquated and ll
able to condemnation In a few years,
and that their playground la limited,
necessitating use of the publlo road
for many gamea. In addition to these
handicaps, some of the pupils were
obliged to walk long distances to
school.
