of trying to secure the creation of a
Estate safety commission which would
be given jurisdiction over all matters
Of public safety not already directly

such calamities as the explosion of de-

Restoration Of Capital
Punishment Is Doubtful
Special Session Issue

Political prognosticators who hav'
been carefully scanning the horizon
since Governor Olcott issued his cal
for a special session of the legisla-
ture to be convened here January ~
are freely predicting that the soloni
will be in Salem at least two weeks
if prompt action is taken by the
legislature to shut off the flow OF
bills early in the .session If the flow
is permitted to proceed unhampered
ii Is declared the lawmakers will be
grinding away for the full 20 days to
which the constitution limits a spe-
ciaI session.
While most of the five problems
specified for solution in Governor
Olcott's call for the session are re-
garded as slated for easy passage it
is generally believed that a bitter
fight will be waged around the at
tempt to restore capital punishment
III Oregon his mTeasure, it is be-
lieved. promises to become the rock
upon which the session will strand,
as even those who favor the restora-
ton OF the supreme penalty for MUIR

are strongly entrenched and in po-
sition to make telling fight against
the measure.
The proposed increase In the rates
OF compensation to injured workmen
and their dependents, WILL it is be-
lieved find clear sailing through both
houses on the legislative program,
which is being framed at confer
ence In Portland today
Aside from the five problems
which Governor olcott puts UP to
the legislators for solution In his
formal cali for the session no less
than a dozen others have made their
appearance on the political horizon
during the past two weeks and It Is
generally believed here that many
others which have not yet opened
their eyes to the light Of day are be-
ing incubated in the minds of the
lawmakers or their friends who

fresh SENSATION IS
PROMISED IN TRIAL

Los Angeles, Caf., Dec. 22.--Harry
>. News trial for alleged murder OPP
ened today with fresh sensation pro-
missed.
Defense attorneys heretofore reti-
cent in revealing their plans. -daalarad
they would place woman on the
stand as a surprise witness who
would throw an entirely new light on
the case. They declared this witness
would testify that short time before
Miss Lesser was killed alleged revela-
tions inv4ving the girl he was to mar
ry We're made TO Harry S. New which
would unbalance the mind OF even a.
sane man. The defense claims New is
insane and that these alleged revela.
tions would easily drive man of his
type to murder.
This announcement was considered
a counter to reports that persisted that
the prosecution was holding back the
most important witness of the trial,
said to be an eye witness to Frieda's
death. The district attorney would
neither confirm nor deny that report

Senator Reed, of Missouri, demo-
cratic leader in the senate, went down
to Admore, Wyoming, to make a
speech against the league of nations,
and before the gentleman even said
a word the rowdies egged him from
the stage-and yet this is country OF
free speech. Senator Reed meet with,
a rather rough reception as we'll as
an expensive one. Eggs are worth
money these days. But it does seem
ridiculous that people will not be fair
minded and listen to what man has
to say. The crowd might not be in
sympathy with the speaker and per-
haps if it had allowed. the senator to
make his speech they might have
learned many things about this peace
treaty that they didn't know and
might feel entirely different about it.
Anyway rowdyism and rough neck
stunts like that do not win votes.

Much comment and big headlines &C.
cupy space in the daily papers telling
of English earls and dukes working
driving trucks and unloading freight
and the like, the papers seem to think
this is something remarkable. Well,
it is remarkable for any of those kind
of birds to do any real work, but as
a matter of fact this country is full
of earls and dukes-or better than
these coroneted fellows, real Ameri-
can citizens who do this kind of work
every day in their lives and get no
big headlines in the papers either.
Our nobility works during the day,
dolls up at night then goes to the
theaters and picture shows. These
are the men who are the real nobility
of the land-the bread winners. This
railroad strike is doing one good
thing for our English cousins-it is
teaching them what real democracy
is.

AIRPLANES TO
VISIT VALLEY CITY

Uncle Sam is trying to interest the
nation in the use eof airplanes for
cross country flights and for business
purposes: A unit comprising nine
planes is now en- route the United
States on pathfnding trip, touring
from the Atlantic to the Pacific and
return. All the larger cities are to be
visited, city officials urged to lay out
aviation fields and to erect hangers,
and aviation generally given a boost.
Local business firms have received
word from the U. S. Army Air Service
that the scout plane 'Mary Miles Min
ter" will arrive here at an early date
to prepare for the coming of the unit.
The unit is under the direction of
Major Ora M. Baldinger, flight COM
mander; First Lieutenant Marshal I.
Boggs, pilot officer, and Sergt E. P.
Borland, photographer. The govern
ment calls it the All-America Path
finders and Recruiting Unit, U. S.
Army All. Service. In each city visit
ed flights are made and where re-
cruits for the army air service are Sc
cured the men enlisting are given a
free flight over their home town. "a
The scouting plane for the unit
which goes ahead and acts as adj
vance agent for the air pioneers, is
chr;stened Mary Miles Minter, in
honor of the Realart motion picture
star. It is big Curtiss biplane and
the only one named for an actress.
The All-American flyers left the
government aviation field at Minealo,
Long Island, early in August and have
worked west boosting for aviation en-
route, through Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin. Mr..
jor Baldinger announces the unit is
scheduled to arrive in Valley City
from Fargo about Oct. IL. The air
pioneers also will visit jamestown and
Bismarck in North Dakota, spending
day or two in each city. z
From Valley City the air tourists
will fly west touching all the princi-
pal cities, including Bismarck. Miles
City, Helena, Missoula, Couer D'Alene
and ending with Seattle, Tacoma and
Portland. Then a tour south along
the Pacific coast will be arranged and
from Los Angeles the pathfnders will
turn east, returning via southern cit
les. The entire trip is planned to con-
sumo 2 year and aviation is to be
doomed in every city visited.
Henry Woodhouse, secretary of the
Aero Club Of America, one of the
foremost men urging use of the air
plane in business and for pleasure
purposes, believes the All-America
tour will do much to interest the ma
ton in the cause Of aviation. During
the war, most of the flying was done
in southern and eastern states, due to
the training camps being located there
and in many cities the visit Of these
government planes will be the first
FOR residents to observe flying on a
big scale. Flights over the business
section will be made in every town
visited by the pathfinders, and young
men who desire to learn aviation will
be enlisted for government service.
One of the duties of the men on the
MARY Miles Minter" is to provide
landing places for the airplanes Of the
unit. The mechanicians are showing
their adaptability by almost rebuild
ing the planes enroute, FIVE having
been damaged since the flight started.

Are you interested in community
hall? The city is in real need of such
an institution because since the ar
mory was burned down we have had
no place where large play or enter
tainment could be put on unless
through the generosity Of the state
we have been able occasionally to use
the auditorium at the Normal School.
There is no hall big enough in the city
at this time to accommodate any kind
of crowd therefore the need of a hall
or community building, is apparent at
this time. A meeting is to be held on
Wednesday at the Commercial Club
rooms to talk this matter over and if
you are interested in the welfare of
your city it would seem to US that you
show it by being there and expressing
your opinion. It will not be necessary
to build too big building or too ex-
pensive building but it is necessary
to build substantial building that
will fill the needs of a community
building as we'll as building where
entertainments can be put on. The
only way to get such building is to
get together and push it over.
