Before departing for home Representative Johnson of Washington, chairman of the house immigration' committee, announced today a comprehensive iian for amending the 3 per cent im migration law at the coming session of congress. The committee will be called together one week Before con gress reconvenes in Deoember, he aid. for the purpose of drafting the new measure. The conntry at large, he said, ap pears to demand a complete suspen sion of immigration, but this policy, he declared to be entirely out of consideration because of the neces sity at least of leaving an opening for the admission of near relatives of citizens already permanently dom iciled here. He proposed the follow ing changes in the present law: Reduce the percentage figure to tacked by a masked man in her home yesterday, resulting in an other organization of posses and scouring of surrounding territory.

Increases in pay affecting members of the rail road signalmen's organization of 42 railroads and subsidiaries will be sought before the United States rail road labor board Monday by D. W.

At present the average rate of pay fox the different classes ranges be- 35,000 Pack Stands Hour Before Show and Thousands Forced to Stand to See Events.

Roy Quick placed third with a total time of 1:51 3-5. Tony Vey of Pendleton, who had the second best time on his firs, steer, lost his throw today. Roping Exhibit Unusual. Mabel Strickland, making an ex hibition of roping, lost her steer for the first time in the three days. Ed die McCarty, popular horseman, made a remarkable exhibition of steer roping with his saddle horse bridle less. . Only eight wild cows were" turned loose today in the milking content with about 50 cowpunchers entered.

The quired to milk the romping cow thus lowering the total number of admissibles from countries entitled to large quotas. i "Give all countries which have separate governments . or parlia ments which act independently of the parent government, base quotas of about 600 each annually, cutting down other exemptions as far as possible. This would relieve the everlasting cry from Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and other' countries whose present annual quotas are 300 or less. Family Tlnit Important. "Treat immediate families as units, admitting the husband, wife or children of citizens of the United States and aliens permanently domiciled here. This would elimi nate nine-tenths of the appealing distress cases at our principal ports by uniting families which might otherwise, because of exhaustion of quotas, become separated. "Perfect the literacy test by pro viding authority for . the exclusion of the mentally inferior and the emotionally unstable classes, some of whom, experience has shown, often are competent to meet the literacy test by reading 40 words, but nevertheless are wholly unfit for incorporation into the mass of , our people. Such a provision Would exclude the weak-minded, the de genrate and those who although old in years, are children mentally and never can be expected to develop stability of character themselves or to transmit desirable capacities to their offspring. 'Provide for more thorough physi cal examination of immigrants by authorizing the modern blood test, a simple yet effective step, which could exclude aliens afflicted with diseases not otherwise readily tected. Allen Seamen Considered. "'Apply the quota law to alien sea men who intend to leave ship and remain in the United States, pre venting absolutely the landing of those who are diseased and prevent ing also violations of the Chinese exclusion act and the gentleman's agreement with Japan. "Admit certain exempted classes, such as students, actors and mem bers of certain professions, for tem porary stay only. "Change the percentage of monthly admissibles from 20 to lu, tnus eiim inating much confusion due to the absolute cessation of immigration from certain countries for seven months of each year. At present, with 20 per cent of a national quota Dermitted to arrive in one montn. some countries exhaust their quotas in five months. If but 10 per cent could come monthly such quotas would be "unexhausted for ten in stead of five months each year. An "amendment might provide for ad missions In. cases or extreme aia- tress. "Limit all immigration to persons eligible to citizenship, once and for all time disposing of difficulties which have arisen by reason of the heavy colonization on our Pacific slooe of unassimilable alien races. The policy of denying United States citizenship to the yellow and brown peoples is applauded by students and thinkers, both here ana aDroaa who- appreciate the fact that be cause physical assimilation of orien tal peoples is impossible their Incor poration into the body politic is im practicable and unwise." t war-time rate of pay as announced in decision No. 2, effective as of July 20, 1920 but later reduced ranged between J7.04 and $4.72. In addition to a plea for higher wages, which it is understood will be based on the premise that wages in other industries are climbing, the union will urge the return of the eight-hour day basis with time and one-half for overtime. Under the board's latest decision the men do not receive overtime until after the ninth hour. The s'gnalmen's organization, along with the maintenance of way em ployes, headed by E. F. Grable, de clined to join the federated craft shops In the walkout of July 1, al though the personnel of the two or ganizations had sanctioned a stride on the board's decision decreasing wages. Walter L. JIcMenimen, labor member of the board, was instru mental, in preventing a strike of the two unions. Republican AVomen Organize. CENTRALIA, Wash., Sept. 23. (Special.)

FAIR BOOSTED BY HART Governor Emphasizes Importance to Poultry and Egg Industry. OLYMPIA. Wash., Sept. 23. (Special-) Governor Hart, calling at' tention to the fact that the com mercial value of the poultry and egg industry of the state has how mounted to about $12,000,000 a year, exclusive of home production for home use, today issued a statement urging the people of the . state to attend poultry and egg day at tne Western Washington fair at Puyal lup Wednesday, October 4. Fairs were given credit by the governor for a large part of the success of the industry. "Washington bids fair to become one of the foremost states in the union in the production of poultry and eggs, and such institutions as the Western Washington fair will greatly advance the time when this will be accomplished," the state ment said.

Frank Rogers won the humorous event with George Attebury second. Governor Lead Parade. Governor Ben W. Olcott, with Ruth Hale, well-known feature writer of New York, and H. W. Col lins, president of the Round-up, led today's grand mounted march of cowboys and cowgirls and the spec tacular Indian parade. The gover nor was given a rousing cheer by the stands. He is a familiar fig ure at the annual event. . Five hundred Indians, counting pappooses, rode in the Indian pa rade, painted and dressed in the most gaudy raiment of many colors. They presented a most marvelous display in the rays of the afternoon sun. Bead work of sparkling color, vests and coats covered with elks' teeth and feathers of all colors added to the display. Many were dressed' in beaded buckskin and some had little to adorn them save paint. Gilbert Minthorn and old Poker Jim, two prominent Indians and leaders of the encampment at the Round-up grounds, were cheered repeatedly as they rounded the track. The grand charge headed toward the governor's box, with the red, white and blue waving on a standard carried by W. R. Taylor. Indians In Colorful Pageant, Trick riding again featured the track in front of the grandstands as the Indians, in a colorful pageant, danced their war dances. Every color of the rainbow was displayed and so much color was in the dances that it was impossible to describe the grandeur of the presentation. Forty f- tries were registered in the Ind. war bonnet race and after the xu-st round of the track no one could tell who were the leaders and who were the last riders. Ip dians in full war regalia were strung all around the quarter-mile track. Bonnie McCarroil- rode Rawlins Kid, Lauretta Schrimpf rode Buck skin Billy, Prairie Rose Henderson rode Brandy in the cowgirls' buck ing contest. Martin Wins Pony Title. Scoop Martin, riding C. B. Irwin's string, took the pony express cham pionship of the world in the fast time for three days of 6 minutes 18 seconds flat. Darrell Cannon, rid ing George Drumheller's string, placed second, and Jesse Farrow, riding Joe Cantrell's string, placed th'rd. The time ' was close in the last race today. Eight riders entered the semi finals of the northwest champion ship bucking contest. Jack Henson rode Doc Traprock; Buck Karren rode Flashlight; Tommy Sutton rode Sun Dance; Jack Coates rode Pom eroy. Bill Clark was forced to pull leather on Whistling Annie and J. P. French lost out when he pulled leather on Monkey Wrench. Mack McCullough rode Leatherneck and Pinky Gist rode Culdesac. Bucklnj? Unusually Good. Bucking was never better. All horses showed more action,, and va riety of twists and turns were only met by highly skilled riders. While the judges were deciding on the three best riders in the north west contest, the semi-finals of the world's championship bucking were staged. Mike Hastings rode Head light, Hugo Strickland rode Radio, Howard Tegland rode Deerfoot, Yak ima Canutt rode George Putnam, Ray Bell rode Long Time, but Dave White was hurled in three jumps from P. D. Q. All rides in the semi-finals brought the crowds to their feet and the judges spent some time in an nouncing the entries for the finals. Hugo Strickland, Ray Bell, Mike Hastings, Howard Tegland and Yakima Canutt were the five en tries for the world's championship contest. Jack Coats was announced the winnpr rf tho nnrthwAstArn ama - I teur bucking championship, with Pinky Gist second and Buck Kar ren third. This latter place was given to Karren, who, although thrown, has made good rides, which qualified him for the finals. IVotable Hone Outgamed. All attention was turned to the finals for the world's bucking cham pionship. Hugo Strickland rode Keepsake, Mike Hastings rode Black Diamond, Howard Tegland drew U Tell 'Em. After difficulty saddling this black devil, he took the saddle. Off went the blindfold and away went the wild pair, but sterling riding outgamed the notable horse and Tegland won. Yakima Canutt, twice crowned king buckaroo at the Round-up, rode Bill McAdoo straight up In perhaps the best ride of the three days. Ray Bell got the ovation of the day when he conquered No Name, the Round-up's worst horse, In a spectacular ride. Bell has been riding since he was 14 years of age. A four and a half furlong derby, held on the last day of -the Round up only, was the best race of the show. Canudesa, owned by Eddie McCarty, won. Other entries were Corn Cutter, owned by C. B. Irwin, and Lady Mack, also owned by Ir win ; George Drumheller's Elmer and Comiskey. and Bishop, owned by Jim White. Time was 56 seconds flat. Tegland Champion Buckaroo. Howaffl Tegland, winner of all bucking contests in shows of the west this year and most promising rider of all performers, was today crowned world's champion buckaroo. Ray Bell was placed second and Ya kima Canutt third. Bell and Canutt switched places over last year, when Canutt took second and Bell third. Strickland was last year's champion. Tegland has won seven first places out of ten- bucking contests this year, is only 23 years of age. and has been riding since he was 11 years of age, but this is the first year he has appeared at Pendleton. He learned to ride at Miles City, but claims Caspar, Wyo., as his home. Close of the best Round-up ever staged came with the wild horse race, which was the wildest event ever pulled. In grandstand and bleachers the crowd whooped and stamped feet as the wiry mustangs of the range were roped, blindfplded and saddled. Only half of the arena fence was left when the first riders to saddle mounted to attempt a ride around the track. Horses ran In all directions. Ropes tangled in con fusion. . Normal A. Stewart, the winner, rode his wild horse around the quarter mile track In a regu lar bucking contest. The great Round-up was over. Mabel Strickland Victor. Maber Strickland won the cow girls' pony race today in the fast time of 26 3-5 seconds. Lorena Trickey came second, with Vera Mc- Ginnis third. McKinley Williams won the In diair pony relay race, with the best time for three days of 6:53 3-5, nos ing out Charles Reed, whose time was only a fifth of a second more., Jesse Farrow placed third. This race was the most exciting of the Indian events. Not a person was seated in the stands when the gun was fired for the start of the cowboys' relay race for the championship of the world." Darrell Cannon, riding George Drumheller's string, was tied with Scoop Martin, riding Harry Walter's string, for the first two days. In the final battle today a slight lead gained In the changing of saddles on the second lap gave Cannon the championship, although there was less than a fifth of a second be tween them. Bill Hurley, riding the McCarty-Landrum string, placed for third money. Backing: Champion Thrills. Hugo Strickland, last year's buck ing champion, was given another horse when Radio failed to buck. He made a thrilling ride on John Day and classed for the finals. John Held, nationally know artist , and cartoonist of New York, fea- Extra ' Suit Service My customers tell me an extra pair pants with a suit is "extra service thrown in."

Held, who is with the George Put nam party, had never ridden buck ing horses before, but made a won derful ride. Those in the stands who knew who he was gave him the biggest hand of thd day. Buck Karren, Jack Coates, Mack McCullough and Pinky Gist quail fled for the finals in the northwest bucking championship, according to a decision of the judges, Henry L. Corbett, E. P. - Marshall and Bert Whitman. Ridera Bite Dost. Pinky Gist rode Blue Dog, Jack Coates made a good ride on Billy Boy. Bert Karren bit the dust when he attempted to ride Sam Jackson.
