6 THE . SUNDAY OREGONIAX PORTLAND, JULY 30, 1923 MARKET ROAD FUND KEPT FROM STATE Use of Money on Highways Ruled Illegal. . LANE COUNTY CASE ENDS Supreme Court Decision Declared .- Menace to Programme Out lined for Oregon. SALEM, Or., July 29. (Special.) Oregon's road-building programme received a severe blow today, of ficials said, when the supreme court affirmed a decree of Judge G. F. Bkipworth of the Lane county cir cuit court in which he held there is no provision of law whereby market road money may be ex pended in the construction and im provement of state highways. The opinion was written by Justice Bean.' The case originated when the Lane county court, some time ago, made provision to expend $23,000 of mar ket road funds in the construction of a bridge on the Pacific h'ghway near Cottage Grove. S. M. Calkins objected to the proposed expendi ture and filed injunction proceed ings against the Lane county court and the state highway commission. "The state highway commission has no authority over the construc tion of. market roads," said Justice Bean's opinion, "except that the commission is required to furnish plans and specifications therefor upon the request of the county. It does not change the matter that the county court of Lane county has by resolution designated a portion of the Pacific highway as a market road. This does not authorize the county to construct the same out of the market road fund. Funds for Specific Purpose. "The Pacific highway was estab lished by law. The market road fund is established for a specific purpose, and the money cannot be used for any other purpose than provided by the statute. We think the law in question is a plain ex pression of the will of the law makers of the state, and there is little necessity for construing the act," said the opinion. As a result of the opinion, of ficials of the state highway depart ment here said today that co-operative work on the highways now in progress in Polk county probably will cease, and that much other road work contemplated in different parts of the state this year will be abandoned. In the past counties have prepared the grades for highways out of mar ket road funds, while the state, under the direction of the highway department, has laid the pavement and constructed the bridges. Under the supreme court -opinion this co operative work will not be possible, and as a result many of the coun ties will find themselves unable to finance improvements contemplated for this season.

War Secretary Bases Views on : Findings of Officers Who Made 10 Months' Study. WASHINGTON, T. C. July 29. Retention of the present promotion list for army officers has been Tecommended to the senate military committee by Secretary Weeks in answer to the committee's request for his views on the question. The secretary's statement, based on the findings of a board of army officers who recently completed ten months' study of the subject, was made public today by Chairman Wadsworth of the committee. The board's conclusions accom panied the secretary's letter and were to the effect that while there were many cases of "plain in justice" and "numerous instances' of "hardship worked by the hurried manner in which the army was Increased in the world war," it re garded the single promotion list as "highly important to the efficiency of the army." The committee's request for a new survey of promotion conditions was based, Mr. Wadsworth said- in his original letter, on the fact that there had been many complaints ftgainst the arrangement and the committee felt that a new report might produce a basis for amelio ration of some of the conditions criticised.

The state carries its own insurance on the buildings. CHINESE COUPLE ID STATELY CEREMONY HELD IX MULTNOMAH HOTEL. Rose Barbara Leong Married to Lawrence Ming Chang, Now of Fargo, N. D.

Spec tators crowded on both sides of the aisle and jammed the door of the room to get a sidelong glance at the bridal train as it paraded down the aisle to the altar while an American orchestra played the wedding march. As the strains of music were heard there emerged from the rear of the ballroom the bridesmaids. Miss Essie Wang' and Miss Pearl Moy, followed by the maid of honor. Miss Helen Moy, lovely.

(Chicago Tribune Foreign News Service. (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.) BERLIN, July 29. A series of air plane accidents in Germany, cul minating yesterday in a crash of passenger planes on the Berlin Hamburg route, resulting in the death of a young American. Ralph S. Murrill, Charlotte, N. C; two other passengers and the pilot, has caused the government to decide to abolish the entire airplane post and passenger service in Germany next week. ' The high cost of operating and materials has required the govern ment hitherto to subsidize the com mercial lines in order to enable them to make passenger fares and postal charges reasonable. The sole route left open will be the Koenigsburg Moscow route, which does not take passengers, only post couriers and diplomatic servants. Fur-Seal Bill Deferred. WASHINGTON. D. .C. July 29.

MAYOR IS CONSERVATIVE Positions Are Reversed, Though ' Both Sides Agree on Terms , to Restore 5-Cent Rate. PUGET SOUND BUREAU, Seattle, Wash., July 29. Seattle's conserva tive city council-majority 'seem in clined to a raaicai reduction of fares on the municipal street railway sys tem and Seattle's supposedly radical mayor is warning the council to be cautious and conservative in the matter ana let tne fares stand as at present until there is better assur ance that they may safely be cut. This situation discloses -a com plete reversal of official form. When Peter Witt, the Cleveland traction expert, turned in his $10,000 report to the council December 12, 1921, an ordinance was introduced for the immediate restoration of the S-cenc fare. This ordinance was defeated by an eight-to-one vote. Mayor Reverses Position. When, Dr. Edwin J. Brown was making his campaign for mayor last spring one of his most alluring as surances was that he would make an immediate effort for lower car fares. When Mayor Brown took office it was generally believed that the cut back tov 5-cent fares was immediate ly at hand. Now the council Is ready to cut, but the mayor is reluctant Streetcar fares form the topic of almost daily discussion in council committees and in conference be tween the mayor and council mem bers. Of course, everyone wishes to see the 5-cent fare restored. Litigation Bothers Executive. The discussions relate to the legal and economic expediency of imme diate action to mat end. Mayor Brown has been urging that nothing of the kind be attempted until after the circuit court . of appeals has passed upon the decision of the fed eral district court, which holds the city to "specific performance" of the terms of the contract by which the railway system was bought. This contract calls for maintenance of a rate of fare that will cover all the obligations of the system. At the present time the system is on -a warrant basis. Wages and current bills are being paid with warrants in order that cash may be accumulated sufficient to meet the semi-annual Interest payment on the railway bonds. Present Revenue Satisfactory. The city accountants show that railway revenues, at the present 8 1-3-cent fare, are somewhat more than sufficient to meet all obliga tions, but the same rigures indicate that any fare reduction would put the system again m the red. The sufficiency of the 5-cent fare, or of any fare lower than S 1-3 cents, to meet all obligations, would de pend upon an increase of patronage. The increase in the number of riders would have to be big. All parties at interest agree that there would be more streetcar rid ing at 5 cents, but whether there would be enough more to pay the bills is recognized as a gambling proposition. No one knows. Pass System Is Advocated. The ordinance under consideration in the council provides for a 6-cent fare, with a 2-cent cash charge for all transfers. Mayor Brown has de clared himself opposed to any charge for transfers and he Is also urging the council to consider the advisability of adopting the weekly $1 pass system, now being tried out in Tacoma and to be inaugurated next week on the lines in Everett and Bellingham. The mayor's representations have not, jso far, changed the council's attitude on either of these points. The, majority just now favors an extra charge for transfers and is against the pass system. Mayor to Back Council. At the city hall today it was said that Mayor Brown practically has agreed to let the council majority have its way, and to sign any ordi nance that may be passed, with the understanding that the fare reduc tion and any incidental provisions shall be considered?experimental and that the council will act promptly lu mcci any emergency mat may De created in the financial condition of the railway system. .

Prisoner Has Roll of Stamps Thought to Have Been Taken From Newberg Drug Store. NEWBERG, Or., July 29. (Spe cial.) Night Marshal Amy captured a man named F. A. Hurst at 2:30 this morning after a hand chase. Amy saw a negro In an automobile at 2 A. M. and questioned him. The negro gave his name as L. A Ly curgus and said he had brought an other man from Portland to New berg. Amy took Lycurgus to a local garage to make further investiga tion. Hurst appeared and when Amy started after him he ran. Amy shot at him but he escaped. City Marshal Ferguson was called and Amy, with a local butcher, M. A. Deaton, took the car and started cut on the h'ghway toward Portland, wearing a cap similar to the ne gro's. About two miles out of town he heard a sharp whistle and stopped Hurst asked if everything was all right and Amy said yes. Hurst came up and both Amy and Deaton covered him with revolvers and brought him back to Newberg. This morning Lynn B. Ferguson found that his drug store had been robbed during the night . A large roll of stamps, thought to have been Mr. Ferguson's, were found on Hurst. A finger-print expert and a detective from Portland, here this morning, knew Hurst and said he was out on bail in connection with a burglary at Gresham. Hurst pleaded not guilty and waived pre liminary hearing before Justice Churchill. He was bound over un der $1000 bail and was taken to Mc Minnville this afternoon. Lycurgus, the negro, said he was simply hired to bring Hurst to New berg. Hurst corroborated this and Lycurgus was released.

LABOR'S POWER STRONG President, Unlike Wilson, Gets Aid of Many Executives in Solving Problems. THE OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Washington, D. C, July 29. With serious troubles impending in the rail and coal Industries, the White House is wrapDed in much the same solemnity now that Invested it in that long period in 1916 and 1917 when President Wilson was. wrest ling with the problems growing out of German destruction of American citizens traveling on neutral ships or employed in plants manufactur ing war supplies for the allied nations. There is the difference, however, that Mr. Harding remains much more accessible than did Mr. Wil son in those troublesome days. As grave as the situation is in the present labor controversies, the president is not difficult to see and there Is a more noticeable coming and going at the White House than in the period when Woodrow Wil son, pictured as the "lone man of the White House," shut away from everybody, was penning notes to the Imperial German government without so much as consulting mem bers of his cabinet Harding: Meets Executives. One or more members of the cabi net may be seen going into the exec utive offices at almost any hour oi the day and it is not unusual for the versatile and resourceful Mr. Hoover to call during the evening as well as the day. President Wil son, it is pointed out, had no Hoover in his cabinet and in mitigation for his failure to consult his cabinet as freely as does Mr. Harding the pal liating e'reumstance is now of fered that Borne of his selections proved so disappointing that he did not care to associate himself with them any more than was absolutely necessary. It was complained that one of them had the vulgar habit of disturbing cabinet meetings by snoring. .However true that may be, it was a well-known fact that Mr. Wilson s poor cabinet selections were made deliberately because he desired to shoulder all of the executive re sponsibilities, with cabinet members as the mere instruments for execut ing his orders. One hears much loose talk these days about the need of a Grover Cleveland to set down a firm foot on the rail and 'coal strikes. This line of talk, of, course, refers to Mr. Cleveland's abrupt action in sending federal troops into Chicago In 1894 over the protest of the radical Gov ernor Altgeld to quell rioting rail road strikers. President Harding and his advis ers realize no such course would be practicable in the handling of the present crisis. Drastic action, if it must come, they feel must be led up to gradually and in a man ner that when the order "use force" is given, public sentiment will be behind it Labor's Power Strong. Since the day when Grover Cleve land ordered troops into Illinois, labor has been organizing and or ganizing until it possesses a power within Itself that must not be under estimated. Likewise labor has de veloped a class-consciousness that amounts almost to fanaticism, it is pointed out, and such controversies cannot be attacked with force until the public, as well as certain of the more sober-minded members of or ganized labor, is shown that the president has undertaken to apply every available peaceful means for ending the strikes. - Elmer Dover of Tacoma, appointed assistant secretary of the treasury with, as he believed, a commission to supplant every democrat with an acid-test republican, is out, and Andrew W.

This counter sign was "Hurrah for McAdoo." When Mr. Mellon came into of fice he busied himself with getting rid of most of those employes of the department who were there merely as sycophants of Mr. McAdoo. When this was done he was ready to quit only as it developed now and then that some employe of the depart ment was not up to the Mellon standard of qualifications. Mr. Dover was not satisfied with that. Qualifications were not much to him. It was more important, in his judgment, that any person employed in the treasury should be able to show that his republican ism was traceable through a long line of whig ancestry to an early grounding In the old federalist party. That is why Mr. Dover is no longer Identified with the treasury. Oil Produced From Shale. ELKO, Nev., July 29.
