OREGON October STOCKS GUI SLOWLY FROM TUESDAY LOWS (Continued from Pag On) nd coordinate credit and other machinery to "achieve and main tain an enduring prosperity, tree from the disastrous extremes of booma and depressions." The president, apeaklng at ceremonies dedicating the new federal reserve building, made no direct reference to the recent tumbling stock market or down swings in business barometers. Partial Answer A portion of his address, how. ever, appeared to give a partial answer to those who have blamed administration policlea for the stock market plunge. Reciting that the government has made mny changea In Ita monetary and credit machinery In the last few years. Mr. Roose velt said that "it must continue step by step to make the bank ing system what it ahould be, "We must not complacently suppose that we have achieved perfection," he asserted, add ing: No Longer IBIS" "By the banking and security exchange acta of 1933, 1934 and 1935, the federal reserve system was given Increased power to Improve banking conditions and to aid the government In com batting practices which were evil In their results. "Those power have been con centrated to a greater degree than before In a single public body, so that they can be used promptly and effectively In ac cordance with the changing needs of the country." The president served notice the administration plans no re versal of its banking policies, ae aerting: "1937 la not 1913: nor do we want to turn the hands of the clock back." Glass Praised Earlier, the executive referred to creation of the reserve sys tem In President Wilson's ad ministration. He sjke, too, of "the courageous leadership in the congress for which the sen ior senator from Virginia. Car ter Glass, will always deserve the nation's gratitude." Glass waa Instrumental In creation of the reserve system. Re-outlining his often-expressed goal of gaining "for all our people the greatest attainable measure of economic well-being" and the "largest degree of eco nomic security and stability,", the chief executive continued: Perfect Machinery "To advance the country to wards this goal is the real mis sion of the federal reserve sys tem. "It cannot be attained by that system alone, but neither can it be reached without the proper functioning of our monetary and credit machinery. "That machinery must be steadily perfected and coordin ated with all other Instruments of government to promote the most productive utilization of our human and material resources. "Only In that way can our economic system and our demo cratic Institutions endure." NEW YORK, Oct. '10 (API Robert W. Bingham, American ambassador to Great Britain, said today there is no Justifica tion for the recent decline In the stock market. He added it waa "forced up on the country by the brokers and bankers in New York City and throughout the rest of the country."

The Central (Chinese) Kws Agency said that th Chinese communist army bad "wiped out" 8000 Japanese at Hslnkow In northern Shansi provlnc on th northern front. By JAMKS A. M 11,1.8 SHANGHAI, Oct. 20 (P) Cha pel was mercilessly bombed for 15 hours today while I mad a survey of this historic Chinas residence section on th northern edge of th International settle ment. This wss th sixty-ninth succes sive bombing Chapel haa endured without yielding to th might of Japans war machine. I found Chines forces strongly atrnchd and In high spirits. Whole square miles of wrecked homes, looted shops and shattered factories. Interspersed with debris- strewn alleywaya, told a grim story of the frightful ordeal Cha pel's million inhabitanta endured Live Below Earth Aald from the hosts of soldiers living below earth Ilk ground moles, th only sign of lit waa atarving cata and dogs, roaming through streets and alleywaya. whining for food and water. I saw many animals wounded by shrapnel. Dead canary birds parrots and other feathered pets lay In their cagea. Here and there were mangled forma of dead soldiers and civilians. As I dashed from house to house, the death-Ilk silence was broken by th sinister drone of squadrons of Japanese planea overhead. They dropped a num ber of bombs, but most of them fell wide of their marks. Crlss-Croosed With Trenches Two exploding bombs Jarred th earth violently and covered my steel helmet with mortar and dust. Through clouds of debris and dual. I saw wounded civillana and sol- diera nearby. Boy Scouts were acting as stretcher bearers. They carried away the aeriously wounded. I made my way through the ruin-littered streets, hugging walla for acant protection. 1 found the city criss-crossed with miles of xlg-sag trenches. Great barriers, formed by barb ed wire entanglementa, atone pill boxes and sandbags blocked streets, most of which were Ut tered with glass from smashed wlndowa and with steel shell fragments. These made walking difficult on the cobbled atreeta. Land Mine But th greatest hsiarda were land mines planted in th middle of streets, ready to explode at the slightest touch. The. Chines also have devised Ingenious tank trap designed to bring disaster to Jap anese mechanized equipment. Amid all the devastation, th famoua administration building of the North railroad station stood like a fortress. Two shell-blasted upper floors of this towering lon crete and steel building still were smoking from yesterday'a fir. 'ut below, on th first and basement floors, hundreds of Chinese troops were nonchalantly ahootlng dice. Otbera slept.

Cat., Oct. 20 Oscar Vltt declared today that his appointment as manager of the Cleveland Indians baseball club culminated an ambition he had cherished for the last 15 years.

He declared Gordon, second baseman at Newark last year, waj the most outstanding player be had ever seen. (Continued from Pag On) by former Rep. William 8. Den nett, brought this objection from Andrew J, Humphrey, a charter member: "Mr. Hoover and Mr, Landnn are on opposite sides ot this question, and there Is rivalry f' control ot th next regular convention. We should steer clear at this lime ot any unre served action." The republican national com mittee will meet In Chicago No vember 6 to vote on holding lb unusual convention, which would be a prelude to th 1938 con gressional campaign. Mmlon-Vandenberst Parallel There have been reports Lan don would prefer that th con vention adopt a platform dealing specifically with current Issues, such as he discussed Isst night In his first major speech sine the 19.16 election. Observers noted a close par allel between Landon's criticisms of Roosevelt policies and those voiced from time to time by Sen ator Vandenberg (R-Mlch.) Lan don stressed demands for revi sion of the social security and Wagner laws, which Vandenberg haa been seeking. Aa In th 1936 campaign, I.an don said many ot the Roosevelt objectives were good, but he ob jected to the methods. Lamlon-Johnson Parallel Congressional observers also noted a similarity between Lan don's criticism of th Roosevelt policy with reference to Jspan and that voiced In a statement by Senator Johnson, (R-Callf. ) Both asked In effect how far the president intends to go In his proposal to quarantine th far eastern war. These two expressions, to gether with similar comments from other republicans, fore shadowed an almost united re publican attack at the coming special aesslon on the adminis tration course In the Sino-Jspa-nese conflict.
