(P) Pre mier Daladier today won ac ceptance by the army com mittee of the chamber of de puties for hit -demand for powers to rule France by de cree for the duration of the war. In the committee's third Tote the premier won by 17 rotes to 13. At first, the committee had declined to approve the measure as it was presented to parliament. Paris, Nov. 30. W) The chamber of deputies army com mittee today voted down Pre mier Daladier's program for wartime decree powers in the form in. which it was first pre sented to parliament. The firm-iawed premier, how ever, told the committee flatly that he refused to accept a.ny modification of his project. Ef forts were begun immediately to work out a compromise. The premier encountered this obstacle soon after parliament had convened in special ses sion, the purpose of which was to extend the decree powers of the government and pass on the 1940 budget. Extension Sought. Daladier asked for extension of his powers in order to "win ihe war." The committee's vote was 13 to B against the premier's meas ure in its present form, with five abstentions. Members of the committee aid, however, a modified proj ect ' for decree powers would have little difficulty in obtain ing a majority. The measure introduced by the premier would extend in definitely the "full powers" ex piring today. All decrees adopted by the council of ministers, however, would be subject to parlia REMOVAL SALE Drastic Reductions! On all used cars to give us more room for trade-ins.

Victory Only Aim. Daladier declared all debate on unrelated questions would be suspended and said he would interject a motion of confidence if objections were made. The premier's measure was introduced after he had said France's war aim simply was "to win the war," and had given a lengthy review of almost three months of the conflict. Daladier recalled that among the legislators before him were men "who during the course of their lives have seen their coun try ravaged or menaced by Germany." He was cheered when he added: "We are resolved that we will not see that again." "The time has not yet come to speak publicly of the goals and conditions of peace." the premier told the cheering dep uties at the opening of the spe cial session of parliament. "We want the peace of se curity. But what is necessary first is to win the war. That Is the sole aim toward which we must bend all our ener gies." Forces Are Strong. The premier declared France's forces were strong enough to break the enemy s attacks. Daladier's declaration was in terrupted by the entrance of Communist Deputy Florimond Bonte, who had been sought since his party was dissolved. Edouard Herriot, president of the chamber of deputies, stop ped the session and ordered Bonte to leave. The deputy was escorted from the chamber and placed undnr arrest. A warrant had been out for Bonte since October 5. Daladier interrupted his pre pared speech to declare, "the French parliament cannot stand the presence of traitors!" Bonte was one of a group of the disbanded Communists who urged peace talks with Germany. Most of them have been Jailed. Culture. That's What. Louisville, Ky.

COCKTAIL LOUNGE Service Unsurpassed mm utit. iu;m I FOR LATE AUTUMN Recent Tests in Southern Oregon Show Good Con dition Soils Unfrozen. Recent tests at watershed soil moisture outposts maintained by the irrigation division of the United States soil conservation service, show that Southern Oregon mountain soils now hold more moisture in the upper six foot level than at any late fall period during the last four years, with the exception of 1937, according to Arch Work in charge of the Oregon and northern California co-operative snow surveys. In 1937, the soil moisture in early November, was the greatest of the record period to date, Work said. The testa run contrary to the general opinion the southern Oregon watersheds are extraor dinarily dry, but agree with the observations of the Rogue River national forest service which re ports a high moisture In the for est soil, making an ideal fall for slashing burning. Work further reported that watershed moisture outposts have just been established on the Malhuer, Burnt, John Day and Deschutes rivers in eastern and central Oregon, and water shed soils, in these sections were much drier than in south ern Oregon. Work said it was too early to estimate the stream flow avail able for irrigation next year, but stated Oregon mountain soils are mostly unfrozen, a fav 1 - ), Just 111 Time for Christmas Limited Quantity raw w re: Compare With $100 Machines Clearance Price S5 Monthly.
