DUTY OF NATIONAL COMMITTEEMAN AS SEEN
 BY THE OREGONIAN

Ralph E. Williams, vice chairman of the Re- publican national committed commented recently on the controversy which has arisen over the campaign activities of Robert M Lucas of the Re- publican National Committee against Senator George w. Norris of Nebraska. Williams made it plain, however, when asked to express himself on the Lucas-Norris dispute, that he spoke as the tional committeeman from Oregon, and not vice chairman of the national committee.
 Elect, Not Select
 "A long while ago." Williams said "A former chairman of the national committee made the statement, which has become axiom to me, that it the duty Of the national committee to elect candidates, not to select them. vice chairman of the Republican national committee That is an inactive of6ce and do not desire to say anything as vice charman nor at this time to say any, thing other than an expression of my personal attitude as national committeeman from Oregon
 Duty to be Neutral
 "I have held the position of national com mitteeman for the past twentytWo years. In all that time it has been my practice, and have considered it to be my duty national committee man. to take no part in any primary contest be- tween candidates seeking Republican nomination to any office In those contests I have remained absolutely neutral" Williams declared.
 The actions of the Republican national con- mitteemen of Alaska in the past have not been in keeping with the declaration of Mr. Williams Which i3 pro.Sa.1,..y tie ro.So1l Ut1y o-l2

UNIVERSITY COSTS

At the last session of the legislature, Presi- dent Bunnel of the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines, appeared before that body with request for $263000 for operation and maintenance of the farthest north college. This request cut down to $105 900. Just for passing information call attention to the fact that ad- mnstraton costs of the University of Oregon during the 1929-1930 biennum aggregated S234,- 134 while $234,911 has been requested for this purpose for the biennum of 1881 and 1932 ac- cording to the biennial report of the state board of higher education completed in Salem Oregon, recently
 There were 1919 graduates at the Oregon col lege during the current biennium which exceeds the total registration at the Alaska College by a whole lot-and this could include the register ing of the faculty

Plans for a new resort hote, at
Moreno Lake are rapidly takil1g

j. r. Fahs, manager of the furni--
ture department of the Imperial
Valley Hardware Company. East

perial Valley.
Present plans call for an initial
structure of 10 guest rooms equipped
with Simmons beds and mattress
es. 1t will also have dining
room with seating capacity for 80
people which will be welcome to
the addition to the Moreno Lake
district. Provision has been made

AUT0ISTS URGED
TO HELP REDUCE
ACCIDENT TOLL

Americas death toll from auto
mobile accidents is serious enough
to demand the attention of every
car owner. and warrants the closest
cooperation between public and
law enforcement officers in the
opinion of c. R. Irish, assistant
manager of the Pacific Goodrich
Rubber company, who is here in
the interests of the Silvertown
Safety league, promoted by the
Goodrich company.
I'm order to control the present
unhappy accident situation, Irish
states, 'it is necessary to discover
where they occur. Of the 100000
fatalities which occurred during
1890, $4,000 or more than half oc-
CURED in public places, and approx
imately $4,000 resulted from the use
of the automobile.
The automobile accident situa-
ton in America cries out for atten-
ton. There is nothing like it any
where else in the world. In no 9TH
er country are so many automo-
biles in use. But this is by no means
the whole story. AS a people we
use our vehicles rashly and badly
and pile up injuries and deaths be-
yond the reasonable limit which
careful use would make possible.
Our death rates reckoned on popu-
lation, are more than twice as high
as in England and about five times
as high as in Germany.
<Nf
deaths from automobiles was almost
negligible. Each year since, without
exception. has seen a marked rise,
the increase in recent years being
about 5000 annually. This year the
total number Of deaths will be over
80 900 and the number of those more
or less seriously injured in excess Of
100000.
Every additional car that is put
on the road increases the hazard
by that much. How far will we go
before the situation becomes so
acute as to impair the use of the
automobile to a degree that will
bring about curtailment in the use
Of the machine? Here is a prob
lem which involves not only the
safety of the public but the very life
of this important American indus
try.
Children shouldn't be allowed to
play on the streets but they some
times do and there is only one way
to play safe and that is to let them
know you are coming and give them
plenty of time to get out Of the way.
Right now our schools are making
concerted effort to pledge each
child between the ages OF 5 and Is
to observe the rules of the Junior
Silvertown Safety league but this
won't solve the problem alone. One
thing to remember when driving, is
never count on what you think the
other fellow will do, he may not do
it,"

NATIONAL AND
STATE CHARTERS
GIVEN PAINTERS

Master Painters and Decorators
OF Imperial Valley received their
state and national charters at ses-
sions held here yesterday and en-
joyed many interesting talks by
we'll informed visitors.
The morning business meeting
was held in the offices of the I'M
perial Valley Building and Loan
association at which time the pre-
sentation of the charters was made
by A. Pearson. president Of the
California State Council of Master
Painters and Decorators. Members.
associate members and large
number of guests were in attend

a large representation of those in
terested in the building trades.
Following the luncheon. the pos

LANDMARK OF
PIONEER DAYS ,
BEING CHANGED

Stripped of the illusions and dra-
matte mystery which so long we're
associated with its silent seclus-
ion. the old Palace theatre on Fifth
street at last has fallen before the
march of progress and now is in
process OF demolition to permit the
building of modern structure.
Ell Centro loses her last legiti-
mate playhouse with the downfall
of the Palace. The familiar sky
line of the town will be without
the towering curtain loft. With the
Palace disappears the last remind
er of public functions when pio-
neers gathered for pleasure and po-
litical discussion during the strug-
Cling early years of valley settle-'
ment.
Gone are the gilt encrusted opera
boxes, the raised dress circle, the
balcony and the old stage where
thespic art was presented. All
were forced to submit to the in
dignity of ruthless destruction. The
dressing rooms within whose con-
fines many gallant trooper ap-
piled grease paint and gay cos
tunes, are no more.
The stage where East Lynn,
Uncle Toms Cabin" and other
/lvorites of the forepart of the
century lies with every vestige of
glory gone. Gaudy curtains which
in by gone years lifted with
flourish to reveal a romantic world
to desert residents, have disap-
peared forever.
The Palace was built to provide
place for holding town meetings
in the days when FL Centre was
fighting for the honor of becoming
the county seat of Imperial. Prior
to its construction, there was no
building of sufficient size to accom-
modate large gathering of resi-
dents.
There is recompense for the loss
of the Palace in that its place will
be taken by modern store and
office building No El Centro build
ing, however, will be able to call
up the wealth of memories which
clung about the old Palace. No
building played a more important
part in making El Centre the town
it is today.

HOES your house look the
way you feel after a hard
IL winter OF work and worry?
Does il seem rundown and worm
out, with the paint discolored and
peeling? Then its time TO pre-
scribe a tonic. A coat or two OF
paint, properly administered, will
be more effective for it than sui
plur and nolasses S for you.
The question of what color TO
use inevitably follows the decision
to repaint Often color choice
seems a very difficult matter, but
if il is based on a few fundamental
principles it cannot fail to be sat
isfactory. In the first place, the
structure of the house must be
taken into consideration. Color
makes architectural design more
effective by emphasizing the most
interesting architectural features
OF house. Therefore the strong
est colors are naturally put in
places where it is most desirable
to attract attention. These gen.
orally include doorways, window
frames, shutters and the like,-in
other words, the part OF the exter-
ior which is referred to as the trim.
Since it is seldom advisable to use
strong colors over large areas,
bright colors that are so popular
for the modern house are confined
to the trim.
As color influences apparent size
TO such a marked degree. it is well
to choose a light tint for the body
OF the small house. The large house
that is not proportioned to its sur
roundings can be made to appear
smaller by painting il in dark
color. In addition, trim lighter
than the house makes il look
larger, while a darker trim makes
II look smaller

Spain. Pinks, blues and greens are
appropriate for the stucco house
and furnish a romantic flavor to
suitable surroundings.
Although there is nothing more
delightful than mellowed old brick
with ivy climbing over it, the brick
house. depending upon its sur
roundings and architecture, is fire.
quently inclined to be drab and
gloomy. In such cases, it may be
painted successfully and is espe-
cially delightful in white. Besides
making color variety possible,
painting both brick and stucco allie
viates the absorption of moisture
which is inevitable to some extent
where porous materials are con-
cerned.
An attractively painted house
with a color scheme enough out OF
the ordinary to be interesting and
still not bizarre has a deep buff
body and an orange trim with a
dark maroon roof. A house painted
with these colors would be very
suitable tor bleak situation. An
informal color scheme for the
house is white for the body, Hol-
land blue for the trim and brown
for the roof.
A Colonial color scheme which
combines authenticity with SUBJ
tlety is as follows; cream body,
white trim, light blue porch cell
ing. bright green shutters and
Venetian red stained roof. The
Italian house could have yellow
beige body with maroon doors and
cream window sash trim.
Whether the house be Colonial
or Italian, large or small. it will
maintain dignity and personality
If painted at regular intervals in
harmonious, appropriate colors, in
cluding exterior accessories.
Imperial Valley press., 1931-03-30

So much for size. The next thing
TO take into consideration is the
surroundings of the house. II
small house is surrounded by much
shrubbery it should be- painted in
a tint TO provide contrast. and
Offset the shadows. Even a large
house surrounded with dense foli-
age will be more interesting il
painted in a light color. AS such
houses have a tendency to look
rather cold and gloomy, warm
light color like a pink beige or a
very pale tint OF orange will afford
contrast with the shrubbery and
at the same time make a dwelling
gayer and more gracious.
Not only the horticultural sur
roundings determine the colors OF
the house, but neighboring homes
must be taken into consideration
as well. A house situated between
two others should be in harmony
with both. This does not mean that
the color should be closely related
but that is should be OF the same
value as that OF its neighbors.
Out OF the idea OF fitting color
to surroundings, certain color
schemes have evolved through the
centuries to express certain locali-
ties. The Spanish house has a color
scheme that is indigenous TO Spain;
the French to France and so on.
OF course these may be adapted
to the American background. but
they should adhere as faithfully as
possible to their traditional colors.
While we always think of the
frame house as being painted, stuc-
co and even brick may benefit by
the wider color range which paint
offers. Because Of its use in warm
sunny countries. stucco is gener-
ally painted in the brilliant tints
which are typical OF Italy and
