Wild morning glories now Infest thousands of acres of rich farm land In Oregon and many other states. The only methods of complete eradi cation have been through, continuous clean cultivation or thorough use of rather expensive chemicals. If the rust control should prove generally effective It would mean the virtual reclaiming of much of this land at slight expense. Found While t lMilng. Lowe told the college representatives that a former Oregon State professor. H. fl. Jackson, now at the University of Toronto, discovered the fungus 33 years ago while on a fishing trip with Lowe. Professor Jacknon collected some and suggested that Lowe try It on some morning glary weeds on his farm. He did this, he says, and cleaned them out completely. Jack son left the state, and Lowe forgot the matter until recently acquired another farm which was Infested with morning glories, which recalled hU former experience. He succeeded In finding a little of the rust again and Is using It with equally good results. UNDERPASS PLAN KLAMATH FALLS, Sept. 15. (AP) City officials today viewed with alarm the state highway commis sion's blueprints for a Main street underpass beneath the Southern Pa cific mainline tracks, noting that the 1,000-foot cut the plana called for would entail dead-ending a number of the city's principal thoroughfares. A Main street underpass has long been a civic dream, because the street connects the city's largest residential section with Its business and Indus trial districts and the grade crossing has proved to be a constant accident hazard. Consequently there was con siderable Jubilation when the high way commission finally agreed to pro vide funds for the grade separation project. Now the city Is shocked to discover that the commission's plans' block off East Main street, major traffic lane leading to the east side residential district, on one side of the under pass, and Spring street, Industrial artery, on the other. .

There Is a brisk demand for feeder cattle and heavier steers are moving In good volume. The condition of sheep Is better than normal. Yl KIPPUR SEME BROKEN IIP BY POLES; FLEEING JEWS BEATEN WARSAW.

Such a policy, he told 16.000 cheer ing Nazis last night at the closing of the eight-day party congress, is dictated by the "naked necessity of sustaining the very life of the Ger man people." The chancellor frankly admitted Germany's aid to the Spanish Insurg ents, and sought to Justify such past and future intervention by a bread-and-butter motive based on the Reich's inBtinct of sel f-preservation. Germany has no colonial empire, he said, therefore Oermany must trade with other European countries or perish. If the inroads of Bolshev ism threaten that trade, he argued, Germany Intends to Intervene. Martin Will Speak At Loggers9 Meet SALEM. Sept. 15.
