Nov. 1. (United Press) Graduate Manager Tiffany expects a crowd of 8000 at the Oregon-Washing ton game Saturday. He announced Oregon won't protest the game should Washington play Miller, Spiel and Hunt. All are declared ineligible. Oregon has determined to use John Parsons, despite Washington's pro tests. H. B.

He then went on to tell of the circumstances leading up to tho pas sage of tho luw. Six hundred men of the brotherhoods had come to Wash ington to confer with the railway managers. They were asking for u.i eight hour day with time and u half for overtime. They expressed a will ingness to arbitrate this point but the lailroads Insisted upon arbitrating all the concessions granted to their em ployes in the past 25 years. This the brotherhoods refused to do, taking the position that they should not arbitrate privileges to which they ulreudy hud title. The Deadlock Broken. The two sidos were deadlocked and they left Washington. The strike had been called for Sept. 4 by referendum vote of the brotherhood unions. Pres ident Wilson saw that 100,000,000 peo ple of tho nation, directly interested in the outcome, had not had repre sentation. There was no law to com pel arbitration or mediation but the president thought the great power of his office might bring some solution. He called tho 600 representatives to Washington and discussed with them their stand. He then called the rail way managers and heard their con tentions. He tried to suggest grounds upon which they could get to gether but both sides were obdurate. Tho men left Washington again, both sides to prepare for the strike. Wilson Appeals to Congress. It was not un'.il then, the senator said, that Wilson decided to appeal to congress for help. He culled the steering committee of the senate to gether of which Senator Chamberlain is a member and outlined the situa- j tion. Tho Adamson bill was the re-1 suit, and he called attention to the fact that over sixty Republicans, among them Joe Cannon, voted for the passage of the bill. The brotherhoods , never even asked legislation, he said, ! it being contrary to their policy. I Effect of Strike. He briefly described the effects of such a strike, hod it b?en called. A five day strike, he said, would have meant the starvation of babies in large cit- j ies where the milk supply is depend-, ent upon daily trains, it would nave also cut off the food supply of the cities and would have stopped pay rolls. It would have meant absolute destruction to the perishable fruit crops of the whole nation. Had the strike been called, he said, the same men who are now criticising the Adamson law would have charged up to the president all the death, mis ery, and destruction which would have resulted. He discussed what he termed Hughes' rapid shifts in his public ref erences to the law. At first, he said, Hughes criticised the law because it gave the laborers eight hours but changed when a number of big fac-jports of ,umbcl. from Teachers: This is your week of study good tiuu and shopping -that means you're going to have a busy week Remember tho this is the store where vour salary does double duty First grade goods Prices absolutely the lowest (Juick Service Satisfaction Guaranteed.

Then Hughes declared he favored the principle but was op posed to the method. Senator Chamberlain also discussed briefly the child labor law and other constructive acts of the administra tion and directed attention to Hughes' Milwaukee speech in which he said some of the Wilson laws must be re pealed for the good of the country. He predicted that, if Hughes were elected, he would not dare to .repeal any one of thjm. To do so would in sure a one-term tenure, ho said. Wilson's Foreign Policy. In touching upon the foreign and Mexican policy of Wilson, the senator pointed out how Washington had been burned in effigy because he refused to embroil the country in a controversy with Frunce and England, how Lin coln was abused and lampooned be cause he used the diplomatic rather than the military arm of the govern ment in controversies with Knglnnd and Mexico, and of how Taft gained universal praise from those now as sailing Wilson because he followed the .same course with reference to Mexico that Wilson has. The .Mexican Situation. "They say that a thousand men have been killed in Mexico," he said, "but if we had gone down there with our army and navy, many times a thousand of your boys, husbands and brothers would have been sacrificed in the interests of mine owners and cap- i , italists howling for intervention. And J 4 am sure that those women who sent j I out the Golden Special' would not J I have been the first to offer up their I sons." I Senator George E. Chamberlain, in his address last night, discussed the imports of lumlior from Canada to the United States during the period start ing with the Taft administration and fer, but was not consinu.-cd by the Orogonian in its article. The sena tor at the close of his meeting hand ed the letter to the O'-.'server, asking i hat it be published, for the correct :r.formation of the people of Easrcr.i Oregon. It is as follow.':: Department of Commerce, Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, Washington, June 3, 191"- Hon. Harry .Lane, United States Senate, Washington, D. C.
