There wu no indication a to when the Ramirex admin titration might be iworn in. Congress Dissolved Rawson's communique was ad dressed to the national armed forces and said: "Having ful filled the aim to overthrow the government and being unable to reach an agreement on the con stitution of the cabinet. I deliver to Gen. Pedro Ramirez my in declinable resignation from the position as chief of the provis ional government, tor which I was scheduled to swear oath to day." Ramirex addressed the armed forces and the people in a com munique which said: "On this date I take charge of the pro visional government and com mand of the national armed forces." The rapid change in Argen tina's confusing political situa tion followed by only a few hours the issuance of a decree by Rawson dissolving congress, which was to have convened to morrow. The decree said that "at the proper time, measures will be taken for the constitution of a new congress." There were no further details on the disagreement between the two leaders of the revolution. Some observers expressed the opinion, however, that Rawson had been considered from the very first as not quite in line with the ultra rigbtest political tinge of his new ministers. : Ramirez was generally regard ad aa having more pronounced Tightest tendencies than Rawson, but the effect his leadership would have on Argentina's foreign policy was not immedi ately clear. May was slightly cooler than the average May of the past 38 years, mean temperature being iU', compared to 52.8 as the mean of all years. Maximum temperature for the month was 83 recorded on May 24. Mini mum was 25 on May 11. Precipitation lagged and only managed to run up a total of 0.84 inches compared to a fifty year mean of .92 inches. Per cipitation for the stream year to date total 16.67 inches com pared to 11.16 inches normal. There were 18 clear days, eight partly cloudy, and five cloudy. Humanity Proves Its Honesty By EARL WHITLOCJC I've Just been reading about an experiment in faith. There's a certain Mr. Anderson, up in Minnesota, who raises bees and ells honey. What with gas rationing it be- came quite a problem to get around to all the stores in his part of the country to sell the honey. So (ill m in. . ha opened up a roaasiae stand. Well, lots of other farmers have done that. But this stand had no attendant. The honey is there, in jars and pails, all price-marked. Also, there's a big, open glass bowl with a couple' of dollars in change and a sign, "Take the honey, leave the money." When Anderson started this experiment, the neighbors all told him he was crazy. "Folks will rob you blind," they said. But actually, Anderson has been taking in a little over $5 per day average, and he has been short-changed only about 15c per day. When you show peo ple that they are trusted, some how, they seem to become trust worthy. Such a thing makes you feel doesn't it? that humanity, as a whole, isn't as wicked as we have been led to believe. Fool ish, perhaps, and sometimes an noyingly cussed. But not so bad not so bad.

Plans for Evacuee Release Shaping, Charges Senator (Continued From Page One) with no restrictions placed on their activities." Burns cited statements of resi dents of the district to the effect a large party of the Japanese were seen smoking within a fire restricted national forest area, that others were seen on the property of a rancher who was absent from home at the time and who afterwards reported the theft of a radio, private papers and other articles. 'The Japanese, when they work, have done very well with their agricultural project in the center and at construction work supervised by Caucasian over seers," Burns said. "But no ef fective method has been found to keep them at work the full day they are supposed to put in for their compensation. They start late and quit early, and strikes are of frequent occurrence." Commenting on the Tule Lake riots in March and April Burns said they apparently were caused by the distribution of a question naire, one question of which dealt with the evacues' willing ness to renounce allegiance to the Japanese emperor. Liquidation of OPA To Be Congress Bill WASHINGTON, June 7 VP) Rep. Hartley (R-N.J.) said today he will introduce legislation to liquidate the office of price ad ministration and ' transfer its functions to other government agencies. His bill would transfer the OPA's food control functions to the office of war food adminis tration; gasoline and petroleum management to the office of the petroleum administrator for war; rent functions to the national housing agency, and remaining functions to the office of civil ian requirements of the war pro duction board.

Instructions were completed at 9:15 p. m. and the jury filed into the jury room. Earlier Saturday Titus spent almost five hours on the stand in his own defense telling his story up to the time of the homicide, but of the shooting of his wife and himself he could remember nothing, he testified. He said he and his wife had been quarreling all evening, and then he couldn't remember any more until he woke up in the hospital full of pain and wondering what had happened to him. The defend ant's testimony closed the de fense's case. Mentally Normal Dr. J. L. Haskins, Portland psychiatrist, called to the stand for the prosecution rebuttal, and who had examined Titus at the county jail on May 26, testified that the defendant was perfectly normal mentally at that time. When questioned by J. C. O'Neill, defense attorney, whether there was such a thing as temporary insanity lasting over a period of hours, Haskins said "Not that I know of." Prosecution attorney, Clarence Humble, in making the opening summary of the case, briefly re viewed the facts as given by wit nesses earlier in the trial and discounted the defendant's plea of temporary insanity. Said Humble: "All that is claimed by the defendant is that he doesn't remember what he did (refer ring to the homicide). That doesn't mean that he didn't know what he was doing when he did it. Amnesia is not in sanity." Defense Summary In the defense summary, J. C. O'Neill brought out the fact that Titus was in love with his wife, that her unfaithfulness drove him to distraction, and that he was just driven to the point where he didn't know what he was doing. "Suppose your wife did the same thing," O'Neill asked, "what would you do? There is always the feeling that a man wants to keep his woman. If someone tries to take her away there will be trouble." District Attorney L. Orth Sisemore in his summary said: "The defense seems to justify the killing of Erma Titus on the fact that she was unfaithful to her husband. You may be driven to distraction but deen down in your heart you know the difference between right and wrong. If Titus hadn't known he had done anything wrong, why did he ask for a coroner, and who was it built up a story for his own protec tion for self defense in talking to Sheriff Low? He knew he had killed her." E WASHINGTON. June 7 VP) The outstanding roll-Calls in the house and senate during the week ending June 3 were those on the conference report on the tax bill, the trade treaty ex tension and to bring up the Smith-Connally labor bill in the house. In the house Oregon's repub licans present, Mott, Angell and Stockman, voted in favor of the tax conference report while Rep. Ellsworth (R) was absent on a committee assignment. In the senate. the state's republicans, McNary and Holman supported the report. Mott and Stockman voted to bring up the Smith-Connally bill in the house, while Angell op posed the action. Ellsworth was absent. In the senate when the resolu tion to extend the president's authority to negotiate trade agreements was considered, Mc Nary and Holman supported three amendments to write lim itations into the bill. All amend ments were defeated. The measure to extend the au thority was passed with all sen ators from Oregon voting in favor of it. Worth Per Her! She toiow stout flnlav-fh'oii ana EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued From Page One) were left flat-footed. We couldn't think of a single PRACTICAL, reason why pants SHOULD have cuffs. In our secret souls, we knew darned well why. It was because ever since anybody can remember pants always had had 'em which is the basic rea son why men's clothes are as they are. (There's no sound PRACTICAL reason why men should wear neckties, which use up cloth and serve no utilitarian purpose, but they always HAVE worn 'em and so it follows that they always must.) That's the reason we wanted cuffs on our pants, and felt ter ribly abused when we couldn't have 'cm. Men are great stick lers for precedent. AND here's one for the book: Women, who scorn cuffs on pants as useless, are strong for neckties, whose only possible practical purpose is to keep gravy off shirtfronts, and al ways say cutting things when their men show up ticlcss. CHUCKS! This subject is run ning into illimitable distances and unpredictable by-ways like New Deal experiments. What was Intended in the first place was to point out that about the time we men had decided to do our bit to win the war by doing without cuffs on our pants we read in the papers that cuffs are BACK AGAIN with the full blessing of the powers that be. That's the trouble with this home front war. As soon as one gets over his peeve at being TOLD to do some thing, or NOT to do something, and all reconciled to doing what he was told to do or not to do, he learns that the original theory was a mistake and that it's now necessary to do something else. It's extremely confusing. J"HE war on the home front seems to be tough every where. There's the case of the gal who bv mistake timnneei A C4 gold piece in the slot of an In diana parking meter and when she discovered her error started hunting a policeman to help her get it out. At that moment the rievnetnt. lne" thousht Ktmrlr h- that OWNING a gold piece Is a fed eral crime and she d better NOT see a policeman. AND also the Kansas City woman of the privileged classes whose butler lost his false teeth in a cran cam fidi. knew her straight-laced husband would fire the villain if he found it out and she simnlv roni.nv-r do without a butler. So she had to drag the pawnshops to get the phoney chompers back. Life on the home front these days is almost TOO complicated. Courthouse Records Marriages TRAVERS-PERRY.
