BEES EVOLVING INTO PARTY COMPROMISE PARALLEL SEES WITH BRITISH TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY IS TO STEAL ' SOCIAL WELFARE THUNDER HOOYER ADMINISTRATION OLD POLICY CLIMAX WASHINGTON, Oct. 35. The moat exciting political phenomenon In the eountry today Is, the Indication of real change In the Republican party. Hera In Washington, the O.O.P. still seems moribund, but even such a brief Inspection trip as your cor-, respondents w have Just undertaken reveals that the Republicans may loon form a party of compromise. The nature at this possible change has already Been mentioned here, In reports of the ambitions of Ken neth Simpson in New York and Henry Cabot Lodge In Massachusetts. Thus far. the new movement among Republicans Is in Its Infancy, yet t seems so healthy and so promising that It may be well to examine It in a larger perspective. American political history has an odd habit of repeating that of Great Britain but between two and three deendes later. It la remarkably In teresting, therefore, that British Toryism underwent its own trans formation, casting off reaction and accepting compromise. In the decades before the World war. Speaking very generally, the Brit ish Tory or conservative party was dominated by tho land-owning gen try throughout the nineteenth cen tury. By long habit, the land-owners approached politics more practically than our own equivalent ruling class, the large business men, have ever done. The sharp lesson of the re form bill of 1832. when really threat ening popular discontent forced the land-owning oligarchs to forego their absolutism, had taught them to un derstand compromise a little. They repealed the Corn laws In the forties. They made a number of other sacrifices of self-interest which big business In America has never Imitated. Tet essentially they always refused to accept the new social forces until old Joe Chamber lain, father of Neville, and a busi ness man, broke the land-owners' power in their own party. He ac complished the, transition from Tory ism to conservatism, teaching his fellow party members to steal their enemies' social welfare thunder, but to write the new social legislation In their own fashion, carefully, and with a view to safeguard established Interests. Since then, there have been bitter controversies. Chamberlatn ended the (Continued on Page Four.) MAIL TRUCK DRIVERS TO VIE FOR SAFETY WASHINGTON. Oct. 35.

PERDUE IS CARRIED OUT OF E Hugh Power, Iff, Hero of Fern Valley Near-Tragedy While Delivering Papers Neighbors Laud Youth Mrs. Sarah E. Perdue, of Pern Valley today owed her lire to Hugh Power, 16, Medford high school Junior and son of Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Power of 101 Portland avenue. Young Power rescued the aged woman from her flaming, smoko flllcd home late yesterday afternoon as he was delivering the Mall Tribune on his Pern Valley motor route. Left a partial invalid by an auto mobile accident. Mrs. Perdue had to be carried from 'her home by the high school student. She was chok ing from the smoke when Power dashed into the house to rescue her. Furniture about her In the living room was In flames. All the windows were shut and the house was futy of smoke. j. Flames Sighted As Power approached the house down a hill to deliver the Mall Tribune he saw a flicker In the living room window. His curiosity aroused, he decided to investigate. As he got to the house he discovered that the living room was on lire. Power called across the street to Mrs. L. H. Hughes and she yelled to him that the aged woman was in the house and shouted to him to rush in and carry her out as she was partially an Invalid. Meantime Mrs. Hughes ran across the street to the Perdue home and got- palls of water ready to fight the blaze. After rescuing Mrs. Perdue, Power opened the windows to let the smoke out. Then, helped by Mrs. Hughes, he extinguished the burning furniture and saved the .house. Mrs. Perdue lives with her son James and seldom docs he leave her alone. As the two were planning to move to Talent, the son had to leave hie mother alone for a Bhort time late yesterday afternoon. In his ab sence, Mrs. Perdue emerged from her room to set a fire in the fireplace of the living room, neighbors ex plained. Not being able to see well or to move about readily, the aged woman Ignited some papers Just out side the fireplace. Fire Spreading The burning papers set fire to the near-by radio table and that in turu Ignited the radio and spread to other furniture. Mrs. Perdue, choking from tbe smoke, was groping about the room in a dawd condition when Power dashed in and rescued her. Mrs. Perdue had recovered today from the near-tragedy. The Perdue home la on the Swe denburg orchard. Young Power was modest today when asked about his exploit but neighbors said that if it had not been for his alertness and heroic action, the aged woman undoubtedly would have burned to death.

HOLDUP-SLAYER GO 10 GAS CHAMBER SAYS. SUPREME SALEM. Oct. 2o.(AP) -The first degree murder conviction of Leroy Hershel McCarthy was upheld today by tho. state supreme court. Mccarty killed Floyd Fuelner in a service station holdup In Portland on Au gust 10, 1937.

JAPANESE FORCES CAPTURE HANKOW; DEFENDERS FLEE Chinese Demolish Buildings, Set Fires Chiang Kai Shek Leaves by Plane ' for Undisclosed Haven , SHANGHAI, Oct. 28. (AP) The Japanese army and navy commands tonight announced their forces had e to rod Hankow. China's provisional capital, abandoned by its defenders. Although details were lacking, Jap anese officers said units of both services had participated In the cap ture of the great city on the middle Yangtze river, major gonl of the Japanese conquest since Nanking fell nearly 11 months ago. Neutral advices reaching Shang hai aald retreating Chinese troops demolished several buildings. Large fires were reported In Hankow and adjoining cities of Wuchang and Hanyang. The city was without water, but a foreign-owned power com pany, which was permitted to take over the waterworks was attempt ing to resume service. llrttlsh Cooperate Patrols of British bluejackets co operated with Chinese police in keep ing order before antry of the Jap anese. The first detachment to enter ap parently was an infantry column which previously had taken Hwang pel, 20 miles to the north, and then drive rapidly down the Pelplng-Han-kow railway. Generalissimo Chiang Kal - Shek. military and civil leader of the Chi nese nation, was reported to have left Hankow by plane during the night, accompanied by his foremost aide, his American-educated wife. Announcement of the Japanese in try Into Hankow .was made f In a. Joint communique from China head quarters of the Japanese army and navy. Many Chinese Trapped The last stages of the Japanese advance were made with such tap idlty overland from the northeast, along both banks of the Yangtze and up the river Itself that large units of Chinese were cut off. The rapidly driving Japanese col umns were said to have left several divisions In pockets to be cleaned up later, as motorized vanguards with tanks sped toward the doomed Chinese capital. Hankow (which, with Its sister Wuhan cities of Wuchang and Han yang, had a pre-war population of about 1,700,000) was the sixth great Chinese city to fall to the invaders. Pelplng and Tientsin were taken In the first weeks of the war that began July 7, 1937. Shanghai fell November 0 and Nanking Hankow's predecessor as Chinese capital De cember 13. Canton, metropolis of the south, fell last Friday. Only lessor cities, mostly far In the Interior, remain in Chinese hands. Whether Japan would be content to rest on her present conquests, thus opening a period of undeclared peace, remained a subject for con jecture tonight. Withdrawal of the Chinese de fenders "for strategic reasons" ap parently spared Hankow the blood shed which marked the capture of Nanking. 0-C FAX REFUND A treasury department check for 41,670.69. the second half payment for 1935, under the Oregon-California land grant tax refund act, was re ceived Monday by Jackson county, The first payment, amounting to $43,179. was made last May.
