PAGE EIGHT E FOR WHOLE STATE IS OREGON PLAN State Librarian Harriet Long Working for Establish ment of Traveling Libra ries to Serve Oregonians By PAUL W. HARVEY, Jr. SALEM, June 24. (AP) Oregon's 85-year-old dream of a library ser vice that would provide the state's entire population with books may be realized In the near future If State Librarian Harriet Long Is able to establish her traveling libraries. Governor Martin la betting on her to get her traveling libraries, as serting "she Is the kind of a woman who gets what she goes after." He credited her with getting the $1,000, 000 library-office building to replace the cramped library quarters In the supreme court building. The new structure, the cornerstone of which was laid Tuesday, will be completed next January. About 250,000 of Oregon's 1,000,000 population have no library service except through the state library's mnll order department. Miss Long, admitting this to be Inadequate, wants to establish traveling libra ries which will carry books on trucks into every hamlet. This service Is now carried on In nine of the 88 counties (Multnomah, Umatilla, Hood River, Wasco. Malheur, Deschutes, Klamath Jackson and Josephine.) Plan Long Formed The movement for statewide li brary service began on July . 6, 1843, when citizens of Oregon territory voted at a public meeting to buy law books "to be the property of this community." Plve years later congress appropriated 95000 for a library to be maintained at Salem. In December. 1855, the territorial capltol burned, destroying all the books except those In circulation. The next year the territorial legis lature asked congress for 420.000 for a new library, but only 500 was granted. Until 1005 the library was mainly a law library, but that year the Oregon library commission was cre ated. In 1013 the law library divis ion was separated to become the supreme oourt library, and the state library was established to maintain general service. Today the state library owns 385. 408 volumes, which are circulated by mall and to smaller libraries. Governor Martin resumed his fight this week to open the markets of the British empire to Oregon lumber, pointing out that the state's rapid unemployment increase has been caused mostly by closing down of sawmills. In a letter to WFA. administrator Harry Hopkins, the governor said there were 82.000 Jobless In the state, 11,190 being lumber and saw mill workers. He appealed to Hopkins to use his Influence toward obtaining removal of "British discriminatory tariffs against Oregon lumber." Reciprocal trade agreements between the United Flower and Lawrence NAwhmiM tn CHRISTWARD LECTURE SERIES Christian Mystic in Public Lecture at Guild Hall, Sunday June 26, 8 p. m.

Ren later at Oulld Hall, clow of opening lecture. urm t i PMtWKR MiWIIOUMS "DO uoy """ring if 1 II States and Oreat Britain now are being negotiated In Washington, The governor has msde several appeals to Secretary of State Cordell Hull to draw up an agreement with Great Britain whereby the British Empire markets would be reopened to Oregon lumber. The Civilian Conservation Corps was given credit thla week by J. W. Ferguson, state forester, for advanc ing forestry and forest protection by 20 years. The 2400 OCC members, in 12 camps In the state, esrn 9508.000 a year. Last year they spent 136.000 man days fighting tires, besides building roads and trails which aid In reducing fire loss. State Treasurer Rufus C. Holman was distressed when he eouldn't find the old terrltorlsl motto, "she flies with her own wings," In the new capltol. "I think that motto is appro priate during these days," he said. "If I can't locate the motto In the building. I'm going to have It placed on my office door." Holman Is Republican nominee for U. S. senator. The State Federation of Labor will ask the legislature next January to amend the state unemployment compensation law to provide uni versal coverage of workers. The law does not protect agri cultural employes, nor workers In establishments hiring less than four people. The federation voted at Its Tillamook convention this week to ask for the amendment. Oregon farmers stand to gain by efforts of Pacific coast agricultural officials to break down the barriers which prevent flow of form prod ucts between states. The Association of Western Agri cultural Officials, which was formed recently, will attempt to simplify state regulations governing ship ment of farm products between states. Most states have strict rules gov erning Importation of fruits, these states desiring to keep out pests. "Current misunderstandings, sus picion and retaliation regarding quarantine, grades and standards, and weights and measures laws have hurt the agriculture of Oregon and other states," Solon T. White, state director of agriculture, said. It Is estimated that China sup piles 75 per cpnt of the world's com mercial supply of hog bristles, for which the largest demand Is from the United States where they are used In the manufacture of brushes. A reduction of 29 per cent In high way fatality figures was accomplished in New Jersey In four month of" com pulsory vehicle inspection. The only place In China's vast areaa where trout can be found are In the streams of the Imperial hunt ing grounds In the extreme northeast. 4 This country whs among the last to grant woman suffrage after 70 years' agitation.

OBJECT EVER KNOWN IS NEW FOUND STAR SAN DIEGO, Calif., June 24. 7P What may prove to be discovery of the hottest, densest and at lta maxi mum the brightest object ever known to mankind waa pictured today to sclent lata In convention here. It la a star, weighing about 6.000. 000 tons to the cubic Inch, only 60 miles In diameter but 400,000,000 times as bright aa the sun. Prof. Frits Zwlcky, noted huntsman of "suicide stars." the super nova, suggests It may prove to be one of the most far-reaching proofs of Ein stein's theory of general relativity. He described It to a session of the annual convention of the Pacific di vision of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The finding of the brightest one last August la heralded aa one of the rare pieces of fortune In astronomy, for such stars occur only once In 30 years. At Its maximum on August 95 It waa the brightest object aver ob served, 400.000.000 times aa bright as the aun. Now It la a million times aa bright as the aun, but has shrunk Irom the alze of the aun to a col lapsed neutron star. only 60 miles In diameter. Its surface temperature, Zwlcky be lieves, may be at least several hun dred thousand degrees. Gold Hill Vocalist Makes Grange Hit BIO APPLEOATE, June 34. (Spl.)
