Reopens Fight Washington, Nov. 10. (IP) The navy disclosed today over weight designing had lessened the stability of some of its new destroyers but said "fully ade quate" measures to correct the defects already had been taken. As a result of these corrective measures, Charles Edison, acting secretary of the navy, wrote Senator Vandenberg (R., Mich.), "It can be stated without reser vation that these destroyers will be superior to the earlier types and that they will give years of valuable peacetime service and greater reliability and ef fectiveness in time of war." ' Edison wrote the Michigan senator after Vandenberg had sent him an editorial from the Grand Eapids, Mich., Herald re ferring to reports the destroyers were so top-heavy fuel oil could not be used out of their holds lest the ships fall over. The editorial covered also re ports new 10,000 ton cruisers, built under the recent authori zations by congress, "shimmied" so violently they cracked their stern posts and had to be re built. REAL ESTATERS 10 LOIR RAIL RATE WILL HELP MAUN Salem, Nov. 10. (TV-Southern Oregon farmers, particular ly those in the Malin area of Klamath county, won today their long fight for lower freight rates to Willamette valley points when the Southern Pacific rail road announced it would re duce the tariffs. Public Utilities Commissioner Ormond R. Bean said farmers in the Malin district have been forced to sell in southern mar kets or else truck their products to the Willamette valley. He said the new rail rates would per mit them to enter Willamette valley markets advantageously. County Agent Robert G. Fow ler said the rate reduction would have little or no effect on Jack son county farmers. It was his belief, in the absence of defin ite information, that the tariff reductions pertained to potatoes. " All real ' estate men of the Rogue River valley were invited today, to attend a luncheon in the Hotel Holland Monday noon to meet Real Estate Commis sioner Claude H. Murphy of Salem and members of the state real estate board. The invitation was issued by Carl Y. Tengwald, member of the board. The commissioner and board members will be here Monday in connection with an examina tion of applicants for real estate brokers' .licenses. The examina tion will begin at 9:30 in coun cil chambers on the top floor of city hall. CITY LEARNS BATHING E IS LAWFUL The Rev. H. S.

Chicago Wheat prices was that they were mod-1 erately irregular. Leaders resumed the retreat at the opening, with many losing fractions to around 2 points. Transfers for the full season were in the neighborhood of 1,000,000 shares. Part of the forenoon shakiness was attributed to a sharp break in the principal foreign curren cies in terms of the dollar, with the Belgian belga and Nether lands guilders notably weak. This led to the assumption In Wall street fears abroad were growing of a German push thru these neutral countries in a new and "destructive" phase of the recently static European war.
