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

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.

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.
