Efficacy OF League Of Ma
lions organization.

London, Feb. 15.-The constitution
of the League of Nations received in
dorsement of the London morning
newspapers today.
ssThe draft goes deeper into the
causes of war and will do more for
their removal than any one expected, "
declared the Times. 'sIt is the most
important international document ever
published.
tTt is the greatest scheme ever forg-
ed for the maintenance of peace IN
the opinion of the News.
'sWe hope the draft means the open
ing of new era of political life y
said the Mail. 'gt is a noble effort to
achieve a great ideal"
'sWe are hopeful that the constitu-
tion is as satisfactory rendering of
the conclusions to which the allies are
coming" the Chronicle said
elf the league does not give an eff
fectual means for preventing war, it
at least gives what we hope and trust
will be a solid alliance of the five
great powers, which is no mean achieve
ment in the cause of peace" said the
Post.
'Gt is pregnant with good for the
peace and prosperity of the world" de-
clared the Express. ''Its modified form
indicates that President Wilson has

HEALTH INSPECTION
IN SCHOOLS FAVORED
Only Objectors In Senate
Would Raise Religious
Issue.

By vote of IL to 10, the senate yes
terday afternoon rejected senate bill
lis which provided for health inspec-
tion of the pupils in the public schools.
The chief attack against the bill was
made by Senators Dimick and Thomas
on the grounds that it raised religious
issue with the Christin Science adher-
ents, who objected to such regulations
being forced upon their children.
The senate committee o.. snedicine,
pharmacy and dentistry made msjori-
ty report, signed by Senators DimiclS,
LaFollett and Huston, was against the
bill and the minority report, signed by
Senators Wood and Smith, was for the
the bill.
The test vote came on the question of
substituting the minority report for the
majority report, and was voted down
as follows:
Yes-Bell, Eberhard, Eddy, Farrell,
Gill, Howell, Lachmund, Nnckelsen,
Porter, Smith of Josephine, Wood.
No-Bsldwin, Banks, Dimick, Hand
ley, Huston, Hurley, Jones, LaFollett,
Moser, Norblad, Orton, Patterson,
Pierce, Ritner, Shanks, Smith of Coss,
Strayer, Thomas, President Vinton.
Replying to Senator Dimick's attack
ON the bill from the standpoint that it
was Objectionable to the followers of
Christian Science, Senator Eddy point
ed out that Christian Scientists wear
glasses and they patronize dentists, and
that it is not right to deny to little
children the right to have defects of
the eyes, teeth or other parts Of the
body corrected in the public schools If
they are not provided for in tAe nume.
Senator Smith told Senator LaFollett
that he would have favored the bill if
it affected his cattle, hogs Or sheep, in
stead of children.
After the minority report was defeat
ed, the majority report was adopted
and its effect is to indefinitely post
pono the bill.

the plan "involved the surrender of that

national interests and our right to con.

''The most profoundly serious polite
al document of the century marking a

World. sIt is colossal experiment, but
one that is in harmony with the ira

GOOD ROADS FAVORED
FOR MARION COUNTY
Need For Market Highway To
Connect All Incorporated
Towns, Stated.

Paved roads from every incorpor
ated town in the county" was the slo
gen that brought hundreds of goot
reads boosters from every part of tn,
county to the court house this after
noon. Other slogans that haa empnat
ic approval was "Let Marion county
Pave" and 'Do 1t Now"
The meeting called by the Salem
Commercial club for discussion of the
building of lateral roads III Marion cour
ty was ealled to order at O'Clock this
afternoon by Theodore Roth. lie stat
ed briefly the needs of market road;
that should connect every incorporated
town in the county and that it wa:
up to the county to provide some means
of raising funds for the building Of
these lateral roads.
! State Treasurer Kay in an address
said that now was the time to start
on county roads as the sentiment every.
where was most emphatic for road build
ing. While the state was bonding for
general highways, Mr.. Kay said these
would not be of any great benefit 0
the farmer living off the highways un-
less he had good roads connecting. The
only way for the county to have COM
plete system of lateral or market roads
was for the county to issue bonds, Mr..
Kay said, connecting all parts of the
county with the great highways.
Judge Bushey called attention TO the
fact that while $250,000 had been spent
the past year on county roads, they
were in pretty bad shape and in fact
hardly as good as they were one year
ago, on account of the heavy traffic. He
stated he was in favor of some plan
for the building of lateral roads, espe-
eially as the great highways built by
the state reached such a small piupuf-
tion Of the farmers. What the county
needed, the Judge said, wss market
roads to give the farmer an opportuni-
ty to bring his product to town at sny
time of the year.
To build lateral roads to connect with
the highways, the construction of ct
least so miles of road will be necessary
in the county. Delegates from all parts
of the county expressed themselves in
favor Of good roads and by many the
opinion was expressed that the best way
to have good roads and not delay mat
ters was to call for an election bond
ing the county for $1,000,O0O or what
ever amount was found to be necessary.
Delegates were present from Mt. An
gel, Scots Mills, Monitor, West Wood
burn, st. Paul, Silvervon, Macleay, Stay
ton, Aumsville, Sublimity, Turner ana
Marion. The universal sentiment was
"let Msrion county pave and do it
now."
! 1t is estimated that 500 road boost
ers from out of town were in attend
ance.

Of the valley to be on the lookout for
a respectable appearing, persuasive IN

His first operation in Salem was ut

turned in a bogus check for about $40.
Later he visited one Of the drug stores
with prescription for drugs From
here he was traced to Woodburn; then
to Silyerton, back to Woodburn and
again to silverton. On his last visit at
that point Ameone recognized him
and wired to Chief Varney to come
and get him. varney told Silverton TO
hold him unsil b. eou'd get there, and
immediately started on a hot sprint
TO that point, only TO find that in tho
absence Of either one of the local Of
ficeFs the man had made lis getaway
about twenty minutes before the chief
arrived. The thoughts that varney
thought about the authorities in sill

The bodies, Invested of clothes, lay

and had come probably Friday
night while they battled desperate

through the terrific seas which have

It is believed that the boys lost
