13 TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3. 190S. REFORM METHODS OF THE BUSINESS Advertising Men Also Reorgan ize Association for Its Improvement. RE-ELECT SAME OFFICERS After Business Sessions Are Over Day and Evening Are Spent In Seeing Portland and the Festi val Features of Week. ' After taking steps to reform present advertising methods by prohibiting the placing of false or misleading advertis ing of any kind, the advertising men of the Pacific Coast ended their business sessions here yesterday, adjourning to meet in Seattle in July of next year. The Coast association was also reor ganized and the members believe that it is now on such a satisfactory basis that it will grow along right lines in future and become a strong organiza tion and that it will be of great benefit to advertising men of this section of the country. A new constitution was adopted at yesterday's meeting, similar to that of the Associated Advertising Clubs of America, the National organization of advertising writers. This does away with the individual unit of membership in the Coast organization and makes the various clubs in the Coast cities members of the larger body. Officers Are lie-elected. The election of officers yesterday re united in the re-election of the former officers, who have served only six months. Hereafter . elections will be held annually and the conventions will be each year instead of every six months as formerly. The officers Just re-elected are: President F. J. O'Brien, business manager Eai'rampnto t'ninn; secretary-treasurer. Bury 1.

It wa voted to continue the commit tee already named on fake advertising, which reported at yesterday's meeting of the association. The committee was instructed to draft a bill covering this subject and It is expected the bill will be similar to the legislation already enacted by the Eastern states. The gist of the bill proposed is that it shall be a crime to obtain money through, false and misleading advertisements. Programme of Yesterday. yesterday afternoon, after luncheon at the Danmoore, the advertising men and their wives made a trip about the city by special trolley cars, viewing the different residence sections of the city, the harbor, parks and various other points of interest. The visitors were guests of honor last night of the Rose Festival Association and witnessed the illuminated parade from the grand stand. Today they will view the Rose Fes tival parade and will then go out to the warships In the harbor by special boat. At 8:30 tonight fhey will board a spe cial boat chartered for them and will participate in the water carnival on the river. After this is over, they will go to the Oaks, where they will be the guests of Manager D. C. Freeman, who Is planning a special entertainment for them. After tonight, the advertising writers will scatter to their homes, al though a number will remain in Port land throughout the present week to witness the Festival. Appreciate the Banqnct. There are innumerable features planned .for the advertising men during the remainder of their stay here by friends of the Individual writers. They will visit the local newspaper plants, will be taken for automobile rides and will visit the various attractions of fes tival week. Many were surprised yes terday afternoon to see the splendid display, of roses at the exposition grounds and expressed their admira tion of Portland's roses. The visiting advertising men ex pressed their appreciation yesterday, of the banquet given them Monday night at the Commercial Club. They said the affair surpassed anything in the his tory of the organization, and were highly entertained by the novel stunts and features of the dinner. They will talk about this banquet throughout the coming year, it is said, and it will serve as a record performance that other cities, who entertain the advertising men in years to come, will try to meas ure up to. Nothing happened to mar success of the entertainment. SAVE LIVES OF BABIES Saw Xork Philanthropists Plan Systematic Campaign. NEW YORK, June 2. Physicians and representatives of 60 hospitals, charitable and municipal organizations, nurseries and diet kitchens banded themselves to gether at a meeting held at the Depart ment of Health to co-operate with Health Commissioner Darlington in a campaign against mortality among Infants this Summer. Every agency known to medi cal and sanitary science will be employed to reduce the death rate in the next four months. According to the plan adopted each bureau will be divided into districts so that there can be no overlapping of ter ritory. As many milk depots, physicians and nurses as needed will be supplied to each district. It was also decided to Is sue cards of instructions to mothers which, it is said, will be radically dif ferent to those sent out before. The cards will be distributed by thousands. The number of births in New York each Summer Is about 15,000, so that the B0 nurses will have their hands full. HOLD ADVANCED VIEWS Women Physicians Advocate Equal . Rights for Their Sex. CHICAGO, June 2. Women physicians took a stand advocating the right of girls to enter any profession or to en gage In any business in preference to becoming wives and mothers at yester day's session of the American Academy ot Medicine. Several men physicians read papers de ploring the fact that too many women unsexed themselves by forsaking bona Jife for Industrial work and asserted that the future of the race depended upon the checking of "this widespreadlng evil." Then Helen C. Putnam, of Providence, R. I., startled the audience by declaring she was in favor of woman's suffrage. She said: "Every woman has "the right to develop her best faculties, to become educated and to enter a business field, where she meets many men, so she can select the father for her children. I favor the establishing of a study of home-making in the public schools of our country." Dr. WHiam A. Culbertson, of Boston, said: "Co-operation of the two sexes is need ed to settle the question of women in business life." Dr. William Jackson, of Colorado, as serted conditions had changed during the last hundred years and that women should be allowed to change their habits and occupations. Dr. Otto Juettiier, of Cincinnati, O., said "The lack of housewives and domestic servants Is disrupting society and home life. I have no sympathy with women who work in stores or other industrial Institutions for starvation wages when there are thousands of homes in which they can get respectable employment bet ter fitting themselves for married life. "Women competing with men simply lower the wage scale, cause a lack of support by men and a tendency toward singleness." Dr. George Hoxie, of Kansas City, talk ing about the education of women, de clared It was a deplorable fact that EIGHT VESSELS ARRIVE AT ONCE Grain Carriers From Portland Reach Queenstown in a Bunch. SULLY MAKES FAST: RUN Sailing Ships Which Departed From the Colombia River WJthin a. Period of Two Weeks Arrive Orit Together Other Xews. Eight grain carriers from the Columbia River reached the other side on the after noon of June 1 and the morning of June built for the Toyo Klsen Kaisha, or Japanese Steamship Company, left Yokohama today on her maiden voyage to this port. She is of 14,000 tons dis placement and can carry 800 passen gers in addition to a cargo of freight. It is expected she will try to beat the time record across the Pacific. F. AIiLAX PERCY RESIGNS Bookkeeper for Meyer, Wilson & Co. Engages In Business. ' F. Allan Percy, bookkeeper for Meyer, Wilson & Company, for the past 16 years, has severed his connection with that firm and has engaged in business for himself. Mr. Percy purchased an Interest In a general . building arid feed supply house In one of the growing suburbs. Mr. Percy was one of the most con genial and best-known men engaged In the shipping business at Portland. He was always on duty and no man in the Northwest has a more thorough knowl edge of the cement business than he. His place at the desk of the local office of Meyer, Wilson & Company has not been filled. Marine Notes. The steamship Yosemlte arrived up from San Francisco yesterday. The steam schooner Tallac sailed for San Pedro yesterday. She carries 2000 bushels of wheat.

Reeven, an the Vnceda Harold Johnston, nn the Fairy Soap I M. Head, m the Sandwich Illncult Ad. Girl. Man. Among the stunts that enlivened the banquet of the Pacific Coast Advertising Men's Association, none were provocative of more mirth than the impersonation of several familiar advertising figures by prom inent members of the Portland Advertising Men's Club. There were seven of the most widely-known ad vertising characters who were copied to the life by the clever advertising men, as the accompanying pic tures will show. Each one of the seven made a short speech setting forth the merits of the particular article advertised. The stunt provoked a good deal of amusement and applause from the large number in attendance. - teachers in public schools received less wages than hod-carriers. JUMPS TO HER DEATH Young Woman Is Killed In Boarding-House Fire. NEW YORK. June 3. Fire In Mrs. Morris' boarding-house in West Thir tieth street early today nearly cut off the escape of Mrs. Morris and 20 boarders.

A and when the firemen arrived a young woman had thrown herself from the roof to the pavement, and was dead, several others were severely burned and the up per windows, front and rear, were crowd ed with men and women begging to be saved. t The dead woman is Miss Marie Bele traine, who occupied a hallroom on the top floor. Mrs. Mary Haggerty, who was burned about the hands, face and body and over come by smoke, is In a critical condition. As the first. fire company galloped up Miss Beletraine, in her night clothing) ap peared on the roof and plunged over the coping. One of her feet caught in some half-open shutters and for an instant the woman's body dangled in space. Then she fell on her head to the street and was killed. As there were no fire escapes the fire men were sent up through an adjoining building, thence to the roof of the burn ing house. Mrs. George Miekelo was confused by the smoke and was unable to reach the roof. Fire Truck Captain Sweeney saw her at a window on the top floor and, tying a rope to a chimney, lowered himself to the window, whence the other firemen drew her and the cap tain to the roof. Lieutenant Reilly tied an oil cloth over his face and entered the building through the scuttle from the roof. Feeling bis way through the heavy smoke from room to room, he stumbled upon Mrs. Hag gerty on thf third floor front room. He carried her to the roof and thence to the street. The 'fire was quickly extinguished with 1000 damage. , 2, the octet of vessels arriving out within 24 hours. The shortest passage was made by the French bark Sully, which sailed hence January 31. She made the voyage around the Horn In 121 days. With one exception the fleet which arrived out crossed the Columbia River bar within a period of two weeks. The -first to de part was the German ship Ostara, which sailed on the last day of December. Good' sailing on the part of each of the eight craft was the feature of the out ward voyages of the double quartet of sailing vessels. It is seldom that grain vessels make so nearly perfect passages as those Just- recorded. Much faster pas sages are on record from Pacific Coast ports to Queenstown or Falmouth but for any number of vessels to make the run in practically the same number of days is considered wonderful. Last season the American bark Homeward Bound made the outward run in 108 days. The vessels, in order of their sailing dates from the Columbia River, together with the cargoes carried, follow: Sully, French bark. Captain Rio. 118.690 bushels of wheat, for orders.
