Before the first primary elec- tion this .year he published in his weekly campaign newspaper a list of candidates for House and Senate, designating those he thought should be elected. Then he began a personal campaign which ' took- him into virtually ev- ery ‘county of the state before the “I will Bave a majority of the g:ue With me,” he predicted after intensive campaign asking elec-‘ tion of the Republican nominee in several districts where the Dem- ocratic candidate was admittedly anti-Murray. Dissatisfied with the- state in- come bill adopted by the last leg- islature, Gov. Murray has initiated a new measure providing for high-! er levies on corporations. Suf-| ficiency of the petition has been attacked in a protest now pending ! before the State Supreme Court. Should the bill not be admitted to voters at an election this au- tumn, the Governor has indicated he will place it before the next legislature and ask that it be passed without amendment. “If they don’t pass it without changing it 111 submit it to the people of the state every six months until it is made a law,” he told an audience at Komawa Okla.

Woman Botanist Knows Jails and Jungles of South America S el o American College Professor, Jailed Three Times as Spy in Bolivia and Paraguay, Home With New Ideas of Southern Hospitality. | Miss [¥D1a WatsH Jaly g% CorRUMBA Back from an eventful trip in the jungles of South America, Miss Lydia Walsh, professor of botany at Elmira College, Elmira, N. Y., has brought e a new interpretation of the old phrase “Southern hospitality.” iss Walsh left New York last June for Buenos Aires, where she joined her brother, Robert, and his friend, Thomas Ellingsen, employees of an American company in the Argentine, and started on a 2,000-mile journey up the Paraguay River into the Matta Grasso district. On reaching Luque, Paraguay, the three Americans were flung into a verm jail, charged with espionage, all because Miss Walsh had taken a of some old Jesuit ruins. They later learned that they were be spies for United States capitalists, interested in oil grants puted Chaco territory. Released through the efforts of an Argentinian aviator who had fought in the World War, Miss Walsh and her com. panions continued their journey, but were once more jailed at Corumba, in a bug-ridden structure that passed for a prison. From this predica ment they were rescued through the good offices of the British Vice g a relieved farewell to Paraguay, the Americans crossed the border into Bolivia, only to be once more cast into durance by Bollyian gendarmes at Piterto Suarez. There being no consular office: in this fair city, Miss Walsh bribed her way out of the black hole with cigarettes and a charming le. In future, Miss Walsh plans to confine rch to our Northern woods, where the flora may not but the jails are far more comfortabla turning to the battle with renewed vigor. He declares: “This asso- ciation is appealing to over 1,000 organized groups of sportsmen and conservationists throughout tne country to pledge their respective Congressional candidates to support the necessary legislation to make Admiralty Island a wild lifs sanc- tuary or National Park, and to support an inquiry into these vast concessions in our Alaska National Forests. A year ago the American Paper and Pulp Association vigor- ously protested to President Hoover against this wholesale exploitation of the Alaska forests on the ground it would increase the present over production of paper pulp and result in closing many mills in our Northwest States. The only an- swer was a letter from the Sec- retary of Agriculture saying th: course of competition would not be interfered with. i Much at Stake “Among national groups which are * co-operating is the National Association of Audubon Societies which is requesting its 100 affiliat- ed State and local Audubon Socie- ties to pledge their Congressional candidates to support this con- servation measure.” Mr. Holzworth then closes in ‘a characteristic vein, in words cal- culated to arouse alarm over the preservation of the species. Con- tinuing he wrote: “While this may seem & very forceful means of action we believe you will agree that when such valuable natural resources and wild life species are at stake, it is quite justified.” ! | ———— AN INVESTMEN: IN HEALTH | From October 15 to November 15 you can get a complete examina- tion and 30 adjustments for $30.00.
