Due Eyes War Machinery Rome, Oct. 28 (AP) Pre mier Mussolini watched a dem onstration of new types of arm ored cars and motorized artil lery today. He inspected the equipment carefully for several hours and drove one of the mo torized units. The latest "Fuller brush man" story goes like this: E. J. Neumann of 318 Van couver avenue, Fuller brush representative In M e d f o r d, parked his automobile on Oak- dale avenue at Main street last night. Somebody "jimmied" the ven tilator window of his car and stole a sample case containing 60 Fuller brushes of assorted sizes and colors, three dozen tooth brushes, four cans of tooth powder and an Imitation chincilla overcoat. Mr. Neumann and city pr lice are wondering what any body could possibly want with so many brushes. WW .u r . i A . . . , . . . . .... ' - - - " " ' - ' - " - ' '! I'M IHIWIIT I SALE!

PAGE SEVEN the policy committee as he will, shortly, announce his policy plan for Oregon and Washing ton an interlocking grid. It is approximately the same plan as advocated by the first adminis trator, the late J. D. Ross. The plan originally included a hook up with the private plants and systems of the two states. What Raver will do with the private companies will be decided after his conferences with his boss. Secretary Ickes. Contract applications for a large quantity of Bonneville power were given no attention by Raver and when Raver was ordered to the national capitol he was directed by Ickes to bring the contracts with him and explain why nothing was done about them. Ickes doesn't like private utilities, but he is sincere in wanting Bonneville power sold, for the government project has been losing money since it began generating energy it hasn't come anywhere near meeting the payroll, not to men tion interest charges. BACKED by the press of the na tional power policy commltt. It Is believed that the director of the budget (an office controlled by the president), will approve Raver's request for SIO.OOO.OOO to go into the budget for Bonneville In the next congressional aesslon, and ten million more for the following year. Practically, but not officially. Ickea Is In control of Bonneville and Its patronage. The bill which would give him atatutory control has been sleeping In conference since the con grtve adjourned last August and ian not be resurrected before next January. WAR and navy department have finally come to a realization that the mouth of the Columbia river and the back country are worthy cj better defense prepara tions than they have been willing to admit In the past, The Columbia has been wide open with the de pa rtmenta strengthening California and Puget Sound, but leaving a 700-mile stretch neglected. It la the longest unprotected section of the coastline of the United 8tatea. Now that a start has been made on Ton ?ue Point aa a naval aviation base, th higher-ups are anxious to pu&h it forward aa rapidly aa pos sible, rhe war department la also planning better defense In that area, which will Include greater personnel for the coast artillery, more long range guns and mobile anti-aircraft equipment. While details of this program are necessarily not ready for the public. It Is known that the war depart ment Intenda "doing something worth while" at the mouth of the Columbia. Activity of the war de partment will probably require new road construction In that vicinity by the state highway commission. 10 FOR STEALING AUTO; CLEMENCY TO COLLEY John Edwin Hallihan of De troit, charged with grand lar ceny for the theft of an auto belonging to Fred Cook of this city, was sentenced to an In determinate term not to exceed three years in the state prison yesterday by Circuit Judge H. D. Norton. Hallihan plead guilty. , The crime occurred on the night of October 20 last. Halli han was arrested a few hours later on the Grcensprings high way by the state police. His previous record included deser tion from the army, a sentence served at the Washington re formatory at Monroe, and minor offenses. John H. Colley, 39, of West Virginia, and the father of eight children, plead guilty to the theft of a heifer belonging to E. W. Birchfield of the Central Point district, and was granted a suspended sentence. Colley traded the stolen cow in on an auto. The offense occurred last May. Provisions of the sus pended sentence provide that Birchfield be reimbursed for the stolen heifer and Colley conduct himself in a law-abiding man ner. Letters were received by the district attorney from West Vir ginia, testifying highly to Col ley's previous good reputation and character. ber 27 at the home of Mra. Annie Clave. All women of the district are urged to attend and help get the work started. Five American presidents were school teachers in their early careers. E. P.
