- WASHINGTON. August 4.—(/Ph—The hillbilly is losing the accent
of his ancestors, an Investigating lanquist said today, but Presi-
dent Roosevelt isn't.
In a report to the National Parks service on what's happening to
the speech of folks in the Great Smoky mountains of the South,
Joseph H. Hall said:
"Mountain speech is changing rapidly and being brought
more and more to conform to the speech of the lowlands."
The mountain boy or girl, he added, generally pronounce*
learn a* learn, although his grandparents and possibly their par-
ents always said “tarn.”
Similar progress toward the common pronounciation has not
been observed, however, among home families in the east.
Going into the subject of rolling R's, such as in the words com,
morning and first Hall said.
"It may be noted here that President Roosevelt in common
with old New York families does not sound hi* R's in such posi-
tions."
The chief executive, in other words, says: "Fust, "Cawn," and
“mawning."
Hall did not say how long it would be until the hill dwellers speak
exactly like the rest of the people, but he gave the impression it won't
be long. ' ' t
And when that time comes, he added sadly America will lose a
lot of color language Gone will be such mountain expressions as:
"It began to come dusky; the sun was a-settin'."
"I leti drive'at hom. The bear broke to run and ran yan away to
the mountain.”
Come come Mr Hall—nothing about another famous expression
—"My friends?" There are a lot of folks who would like to know
the number of years that will last.

box plant la closed it would stay
closed."
The governor sent home a picket
line of more than a hundred union
men and placed two state highway
policemea at the plant to represent
the pickets and conduct the strike
for the union. He said the pickets
were tired
The governor also personally set
up a soup kitchen for the strikers
and hired wives of some of the
union men at $3.00 a day to feed
the strikers.
H* told the box factory men he
would not "permit them to work
10 hours a day for 21 1-2 cents an
hour" and lined up his adminis-
tration behind the union.
The local union, the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners of America, demanded an
increase to 30 centa an hour. The
present wage scale, the governor
said, was 12 to 13 cents an hour.

YOUNG AMERICA THRILLS
In the days when the motion pic-
ture business was young, movie
audiences sat on the edge of their
seats thrilling to the "Perils of
Pauline,” an adventure-packed se-
rial in which the beauteous heroine
managed to reach death's door at
the end of each chapter, yet never
to die.
"Pauline" was blonde Pearl
White, blue-eyed actreas catap-
ulted to fame as the first of the
daredevils of the screen. Yuung
America shuddered for a week
at the thought of Pauline's pre-
dicament, as each installment
faded out with the black-beard-
ed villain likely as not cackling
with satisfaction, the hero some-
where on the way to the rescue.
He always made the grade at the
opening or the next episode, only
to let "Pauline" get into deep trou-
ble again Besides the “Perils of
"Pauline" there were the "Exploits
of Ela,..” and a dozen other serials
of the same melodramatic cast.

TOKYO, Aug. 4—(AP)—
Japan tonight sought peace
with Russia arid cessation of
clashes on the Siberian fron-
tier which have brought both
nations dangerously close to
war.
A spokesman for the foreign of-
fice announced that Kensuke
Horinouchi, vice foreign minister,
personally made proposals to Con-
stantin 3metanin, Russian charge
d'affaires, to halt hostilities.
PREPARE FOR WAR
Horinouchi asked Smetanin to
transmit the proposals to Moscow
and obtain a reply.
At the same time Japan pre-
pared for more extended action
if the peace proposals fail.
Gen. seishiro Itagaki, war min-
ister. held a four-hour confer-
ence with other war office of-
ficlals. They completed a plan
to dea‘ with the Changkufeng
situation.
A war office communique from
the border said the Russians
continued sporadic artillery fire
into the Japanese first line.
Announcing Horinouchi’s pro-
posal. the foreign office spokesman
said it was "hard to see what at.i-
tude the Soviet government woutg
take toward the reasonable propos-
als of our government."

these roposals, based on a broad
view of the situation, will materlal-
