TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, 3IOXDAT, APRIL 19, 1920 FULTON EXPUUNS THOMPSON FIGHT Fans Question Wisdom of Risk of Title. BIG FRED IS CONFIDENT Defeat of Gunboat Smith Declared Fight and Xot "Love" Tap Exhibition Match. BT RICHARD R. SHARP. Did Fred Fulton null a "Merkle" when he consented to tackle Jack Thompson, the massive negro heavy weight at the Milwaukie arena Wednesday night in a ten-round cattle? is a question that la busying the minds of a number of the close followers of the boxing game here .nd managers of other boxers who have seen Thompson in action. Both Jay Thomas, manager of Hugh "Walker, the Kansas City heavy weight, and Charley Swinehart, who managed Thompson for more than a year, can not figure out why Ful ton is taking such a chance and meet ing Thompson with so much big money in. sight for the big plasterer in eastern fistic centers. With Car pentier and Dempsey his goal it would spell disaster for Fulton to go down to defeat before Thompson here. When the question was put straight to Fred, why? he said: "I realize that the .thousands of fans who Journeyed out to the Milwaukie arena recently and saw me topple over Gun boat Smith in two rounds were dis appointed. Not in me, but in the battle which they paid out their cash to witness and which they failed to see.. I reel as if it were my fault, in a way, but of course I was in the ring to stop Smith in 10 seconds if Z could, as I was paid to fight and not to stall. . Thompson Boot Explained. "I even have overheard some fans ay that Smith was not even hit bard enough to put him away, but I would just like to give one of those fans a little "love" tap and they could readily see how hard Smith was hit. Getting back to why I agreed to meet Thompson for Matchmaker Frank Kendall here, the main and principal reason is that I want to give the many Portland boxing followers a chance to really see me in action and Thompson was suggested. I am confident that I can beat Thompson just as I am confident that I can beat Jack Dempsey and Georges Car- pentier. Thompson is big and tough and is not a has-been. I am going to try to stop him just as quick as Smith, but of course one can never tell." Both Work Oat. Both Fulton and Thompson worked out yesterday afternoon as there is little time left for them to round into condition for their match. Thomp son is well built and his looks would beat many a fighter. Fulton is the only white heavyweight outside of Willie Meehan who has ever taken a chance with him in the past three years. Thompson nearly knocked Meehan out in four rounds in Oakland several months ago, which is a trick many of the best men in the world have failed to do. The remainder of the card is a list of all-star battles, which will bring the following boys together: "Tiny" Herman (Oscar Koch) vs. Mexican Joe Lawson. ten rounds: Johnny Noye vs. Muff Bronson, six founds; Joe Gorman vs. Frank Peter. six rounds; and Kid Meeker vs. Henry Krleger. Charley Swinehart left for Seattle Saturday with his string of battlers in tow, ana win maKe his headquar ters in the Puget Sound city. The boys whom are under his management and who accompanied him north were Allie Nack. Steve Dalton, Danny Ed wards, f ranKie Maione and Joe Man dot. Swinehart could not do any busi ness with either the Milwaukie or Portland commission, so not being tble to feed his battlers on promises took the bunch to Seattle where he expects to keep them busy and in the meantime keep plugging for some matches here and in Milwaukie. Eddie Hall and his English bantam, Harry Mansell, will return to Seattle this morning. Hill has several matches lined up for Mansell in Se attle, and Portland fans would wel come another opportunity to witness Ut fighting Britisher in action. Aiex lramoitas and his vouncer brother Johnny, are expected home next week from San Francisco. Val ley Thambitas is down to meet Frankie Denny In Oakland Wednes day night, and Marty Farrell in San Francisco Friday night. Island Title to California. HONOLULU, T. H.. April 18.

Circle Thomas Meighan and Gloria Swanson, "Male and Female." Globe Alice Lake, "Should a Woman Tell." THOSE who know the northwest, the Puget Sound country and the southern Alaska route will find immense pleasure In "The Silver Horde," which, in addition to being a Rex Beach production and a mighty good motion picture, has the satisfy ing joy of a realism experienced by all true westerners. "The Silver Horde" is showing at the Majestic theater.' Rex Beach and his company passed through Portland last summer, bound for Seattle, where a goodly share of the scenes were to be taken. Views of the Col man docks, where the Alaskan steamers and fishing boats- leave Seattle, and scenes taken on First street and from Queen Anne hill bring home again to Portlanders the near ness of Alaskan gold, fish and trap ping. The scenes "shot" from Queen Anne hill have been so taken as to not show the newer part of the city, and one realizes again the mushroom growth of the northwest. The romance, the adventure and the fascination of the northwest, with its traditions of fair play and manly strength in contrast to the conserva tive, ancestral-loving standards of the Atlantic coast have been caught by the camera man as successfully as when first conceived by the novelist. Visualization of such scenes as- the actual coming of the salmon run, which is "the silver horde," of the Alaskan glaciers coming down to the channel, of mile on mile of virgin timber and of fighting brains and bodies can not fail to grip and hold the attention not only of ardettt mo tion picture fans and Rex Beach devo tees, but of all Interested in human activities of an adventurous, virile nature. Screen Gossip. Leatrice Joy has commenced work as leading lady for David Butler, in "Alice in Underland." taken from a novellette of the same name which appeared in one of the magazines. The company was organized by Fred But ler, father of the young star. The story deals with a maid who inherits money and goes down into Greenwicn Village in pre-prohibltion days. Mitchell Lewis, hero of countless film fights, has proven his skill to be as great In the legal arena as within the ropes. He begged an hour or two from his director, Ted Sloman, who is navigating him through the Jack Lon don pictures, and hastened to court the other day, where he forced the landlord of his apartment, which he had surrendered voluntarily that it VISITORS TO BL GUIDED ISFOBMATIOX BOOTHS OP AD CliCB ARRANGED.

Fifteen information booths will be located at intersections of principal downtown streets, at the Union sta tion and at places where it is antici pated the needs of the greatest num ber of visitors will be served during the council session of the Shrine and the Rose Festival. The booths will be provided by the Portland Ad club, under the direction of L. R.

This is coupled with the impor tant supervisory task of the bureau in the movement to protect the public against "gouging" by any class of in dividuals who might be inclined to take advantage of the crowded con dition that will prevail during the week when the greatest number of strangers ever in the city at one time is expected. District Attorney Evans has designated Richard Deich to rep resent his office in the activities of the bureau, which, is representative aS' ft x on the Majestic screen. might be sold, to give up a month's rent. Jack Pickford had a narrow escape while playing the part of the Llano Kid in his latest picture. "The Double Dyed Deceiver." He was to jump from the top of a wagon to the ground. The horses became frightened and started sooner than was expected. Jack was thrown, from his perch un der the hoofs of the horses. Had It not been for the quick work of his director, Al Green, who pulled him out from under, he might have been badly injured. Claire DuBrey. the young emotional actress who was engaged to play an important role in the new Bessie Bar. riscale picture, the name of which has yet to be given out, is now at Catalina island on a brief vacation. Famous Players-Lasky are engaged in remaking a number of plays and novels once pictured, among them "The Witching Hour." "The Conquest of Canaan," "What Happened to Jones," "A Gentleman. From Indiana "The Shulamite" and "The Husbands of Edith." "I like to have frank criticisms of my work." says Anita Stewart, star of the Good Luck picture "In Old Kentucky," now at the Columbia the ater. "It may not seem reasonable. but I really am glad to hear even ad verse criticism on my pictures, as I am to receive complimentary opinions, providing, of course, that the remarks are prompted by sincerity. Construc tive criticism is a valuable aid in do ing good work. Frequently a star gets so close to a producton. Is so in tent upon the interpretation of their characters, that they are likely to lose perspective." Tom Santschi writes from the east that the Rex Beach company in which he is featured has had an awful tus sle with Jack Frost the past winter and spring filming scenes near Lake Champlain. On one occasion the grease in his make-up froze on his face, cracked and fell off in flakes. On another the oil In the camera mechanism congealed so .hard that it was impossible .to work the device. Curiously, the name of the story be ing filmed in these cold blasts is "The North Wind's Malice." The remains of Sam Southern, brother of E. H. Southern, the Shake spearian actor, are being taken to England for burial. Death came sud denly while Mr. Southern was playing in a film production. All but two of the Charles H. Hoyt farces that were the rage 30 years ago in America and England, have been purchased by Charles Ray. and will be shown on the screen. Ray is not the first one to think of this rich ly humorous material, but he came across with the heavy sum that the estate of the late playwright has been holding out for. The Hoyt farces are conceded to be as a group the funniest things ever written for the stage. They can be wonderfully treated with the camera's ability to put "atmos phere" and types on the screen.

MONTAGUE SHOVES OFF Vessel on Portland-Oriental Run Loaded to Hatches With Goods for Far East. Activities in Portland harbor were featured yesterday by the arrival of the shipping board steamer Eastern Planet, which is to take on a load of flour, and the departure of the steamer Montague, of the Pacific Steamship company's Portland - Oriental run, loaded to the patches with goods for the far east. The Eastern Planet, which is one of several steamers built by the Jap anese for the shipping board. Is now at Albers dock. She and the Eastern Glade, also built by the Japanese, are to take cargoes of flour to New York City for orders. The Eastern Glade is now taking cargo at the Portland Flouring mills. The Eastern Planet came to Port land from Seattle after unloading a cargo which she brougbt from Kobe, Japan. She also underwent extensive remodeling on the sound. Like all vessels built by the Japanese, the bunks in the quarters for the crew were built for the average Japanese. They were consequently entirely too short for the accommodation of an American crew and had to be taken out and made larger. The Montague, which took out cargo valued at close to a million dollars, sailed late yesterday. The cargo includes a large shipment of Oregon products, comprising flour, lumber, paper, canned goods, and there are also about 4000 bales of cotton, steel and some chemicals for agricultural purposes. The steamer will touch at Yoko hama, Chinese ports and Manila. She carried all the fuel oil her tanks could handle on account of the re ported fuel shortage in the orient. Departures also included the bark- entlne Georgina,' with a cargo of 1.092.000 feet of lumber consigned for Sydney. Australia. The vessel was loaded at the Inman-Poulsen mill. The St. Nicholas of the Columbia River Packers' association got away from Astoria yesterday for the trip to Nushagak, Alaska. This is the sec ond vessel of the fleet of that con cern to get away for the north. The remaining two are due to sail today. The cannery tenders Berlin and Levi J. 'Burgess of the Alaska-Port land Packers' association are now at Astoria and are expected to sail soon The vessels are completely outfitted for the trip to Alaska.

Pacific Coast Snipping Notes. SEATTLE, Wash., April 18. (Special.) With foreign Imports piling gain on gain with unprecedented rapidity, Seattle's water-borne commerce rolled up to the enor-mou-i total of J3Sl.024.OsO In the six-month period ending February 2d, an increase of exactly 7,WU1.99 as compared with the six-month period ending the last day of February, 1919, when the figures were $373,022,081. Seattle firms operating shipping board carriers are facing the most difficult problem since they entered tbe trans-Pacific trade, a fuel oil famine In the far east extending from Vladivostok to Singa pore. So serious had become the shortage that arrangements are being made to con vert shipping board carriers Into coal burners as soon as they arrive In Yoko hama, to operate them as such while in the orient and to convert them back Into oil burners Just before the vessels sail for this coast. Two vessels of the shipping board fleet of Struthers.& Ptxon are completing big cargoes for the orient at the pier of the Kast Waterway Dock & Warehouse com pany. They are the steamships West Jena and West Ison, and will have a total of 14.400 tons of miscellaneous freight when they start for sea. The West Jeua is ex pected to get away this afternoon and tne West Ison tomorrow afternoon. Smiling skies and calm weather on the fishing banks In Hecate strait and off Cape Flattery have made it possible for vessels of the Seattle fishing fleet to reap a harvest during the past week. Break ing all records for a llkfe period this year, a total of 32 fi3hlng vessels arrived In Seattle during the six days of last week bringing catches aggregating more thar 200,000 pounds of halibut and coo.

Scbindler, Supercargo on Salto, Completes Trip and Reveal Propaganda. That Germany is preparing to make a strong fight for the South American trade and is already laying the basis for her activity by a campaign of propaganda edirected mainly against the government of the United States, is the declaration of N. P. Schindler supercargo on the steamship "Salto." which recently completed a trip to South America, touching at a number of the South American ports. A copy of Mr. Schindler's report to the United States shipping board has been re ceived by the department of com merce of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, and extracts are given be low, as follows: - "It is a known fact that at the present moment Germany Is ready to throw millions of dollars worth of manufactures on the South American markets, hoping that in this Indirect manner they will be re-transhipped to the United States. Argentine, you will remember, never did declare war on Germany. While it is true that dip lomatic relations were broken, com mercial relations were not and to lis ten to the German in Buenos Aires theirs will be the commercial victory lust as soon as the United States rati nes the peace treaty. "I was sitting at a table in a Buenos Aires restaurant having luncheon near a table where five Germans were placed. Their conversation in German at first concerned the president's health. One expressed the opinion that it would have been much better if the President had become 'ill be fore his Paris trip, as then -they would not have been sold as serfs to the other nations. Another one jested at the present value of the German mark (around five cents), saying that the United States would hold an empty bag when the bottom fell out of their currency. They ridi culed our efforts to feed their coun trymen saying that we were In for the trimming of our national life, as Germany would declare herself bank rupt and pay about three cents on the dollar; in fact, that amount was even too good for the American pigs. 1 bought a German newspaper which I mailed from Buenos Aires and which no doubt has reached Washington by now. It is absolutely anti-American. I learned later that one of these men was a former manager of the Ham burg-American line. I did not have the time to follow up the lead, how ever, as the Salto was sailing the next day. "I mention the above simply to show you the vlrllltv of the German propaganda here. With her territory unmanned during the recent con flict, she is now ready to resume op erations full blast and she is going to enter the United States via the Argentine, her great stronghold in South America. She intends to flood the South American markets with her manuiacturea ana raw. materials chiefly aniline dyes, cheap clothing, potash and nitrates in general. More over, I heard the desire expressed that Germany would resume her exporta tion of toys, as South America has al ways been a verdant field for this commodity. "The remedy Is within our reach If we are ready to fight propaganda with propaganda, the legitimate kind; If we are prepared to appoint our own American manhood down here as out representatives instead of depending upon British representation; If we are ready to avail ourselves of the bene fits an active newspaper (Spanish) ad vertising campaign would foster, then and then only can we hope to compete for our share of the South American trade." BURGLARS ROB POOL HALL Home Also Entered and Jewelry Is Reported Missing. Burglars entered the poolroom of TJ. Yokoyama, 90 North Fifth street, some time early yesterday and ob tained about $90, according to a re port made to the police yesterday.

PACIFIC STEAMSHIP COMPANY &3 I s LFRED H. EMERSON, owner of big stock farm, who says Tanlac built him right up after having; a bad case of Flu, which left him in awful bad shape. Says Tanlac is only medicine that helped him. "I have taken only one bottle of Tanlac but it has done me more good than all the other medicines I have taken put together," said A. H. Emer son when he called at Guppy's Drug Store, Portland. Me., the other . day. Mr. Emerson lives near West Scar boro. Me., where he owns and oper ates one of the largest stock farms in that section of the country. "After I got up from the flu last winter I was in mighty bad shape," he continued. "I was not only in a weakened, debilitated condition, but I aUo suffered awfully with indiges tion. My stomach was so weak 1 could hardly digest anything and could hardly bear the sight of food, much less eat anything. As I was not able to eat any nourishing food I kept getting worse and worse and I was badly discouraged over my con dition as it looked like I would never get my strength back again. My nerves were all upset and my sleep was broken and Irregular. I felt tired and wornout from morning until night and could hardly drag one foot after the other. "I took many different kinds of medicine but nothing did me a par ticle of good until I began taking Tanlac As I said before. I have taken only one bottle, but it has made such a remarkable change in my con dition I feel like a different person altogether. My appetite is splendid now and I can eatanything I want and as much as I want without the slightest touch of Indigestion. My strength and energy have returned. I sleep sound and get up in the mornings feeling ready for a big day's work. Tanlac has put me back on my feet and everybody certainly ought to know about this medicine." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl Drug Co. Adv. AMUSEMENTS. ri Ticket Sale Opens Today T-IPTI Tfi Broadway at Taylor A 1 1-i1L1VJ Phone Main 1 Week Sat. lOve'a, APR. 22, 23, 24 SPECIAL.
