Balanced Budget
Object Of Morse,
Dairymen Told
Eugene, Ore., Jan. 25 U.R)
Sen. Wayne L. Morse (R., Ore.),
was to leave here today .for a
noon luncheon address in Salem
after speaking before the 56th
annual banquet of the Oregon
Dairymen's association here last
night.
Morse told delegates he was
going to fight for a balanced
budget this congressional session.
He offered two steps toward cut
ting $5,000,00.0,000 from expen
ditures. Would Cut Defenses
He said, $3,000,000,000 could
be cut from defense appropria
tions because $15,000,000,000 is
not needed for adequate defense,
Morse said some of the saving
could be made by setting up a
central procurement system for
the three armed services. He
called for a unification of the
procurement system as well as
the services.
The senator said the rest of
the saving could be made bv
following the recommendations
of the Hoover commission.
On the dairy subject, Morse
said he leit repeal of the oleo
margarine federal tax would
damage the butter industry and
the whole dairy industry.
Price Support Qulned
Morse questioned the present
price support program of the de
partment of agriculture, ooint-
ing'out that the purchase price
for butter is established without
regard to location of olant nr
normal seasonal variations of
price.
By purchasing directly at
plants without any regard to the
structure- of terminal market
prices. Morse declared, the de
partment is placing itself in di
rect competition with manv co
operative associations of produc
ers and with many corporate
nanniers.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE
Vtrttoito
KacFheros
Hollywood, Jan. 25 (U.R) A ,
great lover of the silent screen
said todav that when talkies
came, sex
went out of
the movies.
Antonio Mor
eno, one of the
original mati
nee idols, said
lovemaking is
something that
doesn't call for
conversation.
"I . have a
girl in my
arms. I am
I am hugging
- and kissing
her," he said. "I don't want to
talk.
"I only want," and he waved
his arms expressively, "action.
I just want to hear her breath
ing." This was so much more real
istic, he said, than the "Darling,
1 love you" which keeps getting
in the way of modern movie
lovers. '
Probably it's a good thing for
the censors that passion these
days is mostly in words, he add
ed. They'd go mad cutting out
the sex put out by sirens like
Greta Garbo, Gloria Swanson
and the Talmadge sisters.
No Lines to Remember
"You understand, they did not
have to remember their lines or
think about the microphone," he
said. "In a love scene, they for
got everything but love. It was
sincere. Ah, it was beautiful,
much more beautiful."
Moreno, working at Metro
Goldwyn for the first time since
1927 as a character actor in
"Crisis," was one of the six stars
at the studio when it opened 26
years ago. He nuzz led Alice
Terry in "Mare Nostrum,"
Gloria Swanson in "My Ameri
can Wife," Pola Negri in "The
Spanish Dancer," as well as
Blanche Sweet, Edith Story
Maryford and Agnes Ayres.
There was beautiful music in
the background for those love
scenes, too. encouraging ladies
who were backward about act
ing abandoned.
"Greta Garbo was so stiff, so
shy," said Moreno, who made
love to her in her second Ameri
can picture, "The Temptress."
"I said to her, 'you must relax,
be free,' and I asked the musi
cians to play a serenade.
" 'Do not play it roughly,' I
said. When the music started, ah.
it was as a blanket had been
lifted from her. She was so
warm, surging passionate.
"What a scene!"

Chicago. ftJ.R) Christopher G.
Janus, who bought Adolph Hit

of using the car In a way "I'm
