CLAIM SONS WERE MISTREATED Charge of Nepotism is Also Hoard amy coiom-i us Hef erred to a "Kaiser" and His Son a the Crown lViiice." The Portland papers have been persistently boosting Colonel John L. May, evidently with a view to plac ing him in Hue for political prefer ment. The mothers of the hoys who served with him overseas take an entirely different view of the mat ter, however. A number of Port land mothers have now openly made Known their decided disapproval of the way their boys under his coin mand were treated. Kepardtng this the Portland Oregonian of April 2 has tiie following: , Troubles of the old Third Oregon was given a public airing yesterday arternoon by 17 mothers represent ing the auxiliaries of companies U C. D. F, G and machine gun, who met to protest against the elevation of Colonel John L. May to a hriga dier-generalship. and to demand that the returning men who have seen service abroad be given commissions in the Third Oregon In the place of civilians who stayed at home. Mrs. J. M. Stevens, mother of Lieutenant Orville Stevens, who was killed in France, presided at the meeting. Mrs. M. K. Daniel, Mrs. A Sorenson and Mrs. C. P. Clerin acted as spokesmen and presented a list of questions concerning Colonel May's relations toward the men, to which they demand a public answer. When shown the questions last evening. Colonel May declined to make a reply. His friends were of the opinion that a number of the questions related to matters wholly outside of Colonel May's jurisdic tion. The women alleged that Colonel May discriminated against men who merited promotion in order that his own sons. Frank May and F.ugene May, might receive advancement. Statements of mistreat men t of the men while in France were made b the women, which, they say, will be backed up by every man in the regi ment. Several of the boys, who were in structing cuinmiysioiH d iiffii ers in machine gun tire and other techni cal points, were aked by officers 01 other riKiments why they retnahieu tnly buck privalrs." said Mrs. Clerin. "The buys told them to ask Colonel May. After Frank May was cominiKiduuud he slipped one of tin boys in (he streets and asked him it he was gt-tting enough to eat. The boy answtred that he was not and ht was pluced in the guard house foi days tor complaining of the fond." "Uuriug this time our men had been short-rationed to a 'alum,' mad of canned corned beef and tomatoes, a diet which was not varied for 30 days,' aid Mrs. Clerin. ;:ad it not been for Captain K! vcrs they loved, the boys would noi hate inarched a step in the pi occa sion when they reached Portland," said Mrs. Daniel. "Many of them k-.t the train before it reached the Union station and when they pulled in they tried to get away without marching. Captain Klveis ordered them to fall in' and they did it sole ly tu please him." "The boys said It was a family af fair all the way through and that th y were sick of It." said another woman. "They have repeatedly said that they were finished with the Third Oregon if Colonel May was to ho retained." The women registered a decided dislike for a new Third Oregon and seem'-fl of the opinion that there was little necessity for the formation of a new organization. They exhibited a petition signed by Colonel W. C. Norih, recently reassigned to com mand of the new regiment, wherein National Guard officers appointed in the absence of the regiment pledged to resign after the return of the 1 6 2d Infantry from France. The women voted to present nhe questions to Colonel .Yay through the press with the request that they be answered publicly. The ques tions submitted by the mothers are a 5 follows: "Why were the boys not allowed to celebrate on the day the armistice was siened and why were they ti t nit thi whs no time for celebration and (riven orders to drill? Why, on the return to the west, v ere the boys not routed by way of T'ortland and why was it necessary f'ir 'he auxiliaries to pend a delegate to Camp Lewis to ask that arrange ments be made for the boys to march through the streets of Portland on thxir return'' Colonel May pays he love the bors and that they love him. If this I.; so. why do they call him the Kaiser arid his elder son the Crown I'rincp? Why are the father and ine two son common I v referred to as Father. Son and Holy Ghost?" Why in a public fn-'-ch made at Honk'aux. did Colonel May make the i,cerMon that he would look to the drafted mn for his nnn-ronimin-Fiond officers and why did h make the allegation fn;,t enlisted men un der him 'T'' only 111 hiph-fwhool bov whose mothers wahd their faces In the morning, stuck rigar v'i l' their mnnh and "nt them rlo-vn to the pnolhalls every day?
