Not Clear-Cut Trstt '
Senator Pope'a race against
Rop. D. Worth Clark, however,
may bring the only clearcut test
of administration policies. Pope,
who helped write the crop con

Rootovolt measures, while Clark
aa a self-styled conservative

Major Candidates Address
Chariot A. Sprague, republican gubernatorial nominee, waa addressing a big plcn(e cro4d at
Moore park Sunday when the camera caught thh view of tbe speaker's stand. D. E. Van Vactor,
matter of ceremonies, it teated at tbe far end. Rufua Holman and U. S. Balentlne, aenatorlal and
congressional nominees, are alto on the platform.
Vigorous Speechmaking By
Major Republican Candidates
Heard By Large Picnic Crowd
A picnic crowd of several hun
dred vigorously applauded three
major republican candidates for
Oregon office at Moore park Sun
day In tbe opening addresses of
the general election campaign In
thlt' county. The sneakera were:
Rufua 'Holman.v tate treasurer
and nominee tor the United States
senate: Charles A. Sprague,
Salem, nominee for governor, and
U. 8. Balentlne, Klamath Fallt,
republican candidate for aecond
district congressman.
Outstanding quotations from
the three speeches which drew
applause:
Holman "Any damn fool
can levy a tax. The important
thing la to administer public
affaire with the money already
available."
Sprague "The kind of social
aeenrity wanted by a healthy
man la a steady job at good
wages."
Balentlne "The present ad
ministration, in undertaking ita
extensive humanitarian pro
gram, la entitled to a few
blunders. But when these
blunders becomo apparent, this
administration refuses to admit
and correct Ita errors."
The three candidates were In
troduced by D. E. Van Vactor,
and spoke after the large crowd
bad enjoyed picnic dinner under
the treea at the park. Pro
America, Klamath Falls chapter,
wat sponsor of the picnic, with
Mrs. Betty Guernsey in charge.
Both democrats and republicans
attended.
Speaking In the home city of
hla opponent, ex-Mayor Willis
Mahoney, Holman delivered a vig
orous address emphasizing the
need of thrift and common sense
In handling public affairs. He
did not mention' Mahoney.
The state treasurer pointed out
that in both public and private
business, he had always stood
against wage cuts and tor high
pay for those who work. At the
same time, he aald, expenditures
were kept down by careful man
agement. .The new state capltol, Holman
taid, wbb built without a cent of
Interest involved, following a plan
used for the Multnomah county
hospital which he helped shape.
He discussed revision of highway
financing, and pointed out that
when the' 150,000,000 highway
bonds were issued some years
ago, they were uncallable bonds
and the Interest bill was S30,
000,000. He said that by careful
management, the Interest bill ot
the state had been cut a million
and a halt a year.
Tho Wagner labor relatione act,
Holman declared. Is promoting un
employment rather than assisting
working people. He said he fav
ored not its repeal, but Its amend
ment. Holman declared for a review
by the United States aenate of
reciprocal trade treaties. The ad
ministration's reciprocal trade
policy, he charged, is absurdly
Inconsistent and haa told western
agriculture and lumber down the
river for the benefit ot the In
dustrial east.

hit hearers that Inflation and
bankruptcy bad been the ruina
tion of other republics and had
paved tho way tor dictatorships.
Speatrmg Of men V ho" seek public
office, he said. "By their workt,
not their words, ye than know
them."
"Left go back to the leadership
of the men who made America,"
taid the speaker.
Balentlne declared he is con
vinced the people want to get back
to a sound basis and restore to
posterity "some measure ot what
we have taken from It."
He said he had just come from
from a trip covering all but three
of the counties of tbe second dis
trict. People, he said, are im
patient at the administration's
unwillingness to admit its mis
takes. The Klamath man, a member
of the state senate, vigorously
criticized reciprocal trade treat
ies. "Horse trading Is all right
if you're a good horse trader."
said Balentine, who expressed the
opinion that Secretary of State
Cordell Hull Is not particularly
good at horse trading. He attack
ed the "Inconsistency ot limiting
our own production and Inviting
others to come In with the same
products."
' Balentine reviewed his work In
the state senate. He pointed out
that Klamath county holds a dom
inant place In the second con
gressional district, and invited
support as a Klamath county man,
experienced in public office and
politics, seeking congressional of
fice. Sprague, publisher ot the Salem
Statesman, received repeated ap
plause as he worked rapidly
through his first public speech
in this county.
He declared, at the outset, that
Oregon's problems are economic
rather than political. He pointed
out that the state Is ninth in
area, thirty-fifth in population.
Only a third ot ita area is in
private ownership, and the burden
of supporting the people and the
government Is confined to the
producing area.
He spoke tor classification of
cut-over lands, re-forestatlon of
lands suited for that, sustained

Gulf Between Soviet and
Japan Widens; Both
Claim Gains.
. By the Associated Prree
' Two new clashes on the Man-choukuoan-Slberian
border widen
ed tbe gulf today between Japan
and soviet Russia whose efforts
to negotiate peace on the disputed
frontier so far have been unsuc
cessful. Maxim Litvinoff, soviet foreign
commissar, said a new border
clash had occurred near Suifenho,
250 miles north of Changkuteng,
where Russians and Japanese
have been embattled since July 29
on heighta near the junction of
the Korean. Manchoukuoan and
Siberian frontiers.
The Japanese foreign office said
soviet forces had been repulsed in
a "heavy engagement" on-almond-shaped
Changkuteng hill and an
army communique said the Rus
sians were in a general retreat to
the north.
Thia followed reports yesterday
that soviet forces had driven Jap
anese troops from the hill.
Litvinoff and Mamoru Shlge
mltsu, Japanese ambassador to
Moscow, conferred again but they
appeared no nearer a solution of
their differences and the Russian
temper, at least, was growing
shorter.
