PORTLAND, Jan. 13. That tho
Bolshevik movement with Portland as i
headquarters for -tlwtfoasir operaHonsV
is now gaining a formative condition
which is likely to be reckoned with, is
known to be a serious fact here.
For several days this has been ap-.
parent but no publicity has been giv
en with the hope that indications vcre
false and that the signs would disap
pear. However, Mayor Baker in a speech
has outlined what the country is being
faced with and no longer is there any
doubt that it is a condition that is with
j"10 coast country and must be han
dled:
Mayor Baker said:
"With soldiers being discharged in
this vicinity ut the rate of 600 a da
and with no employment for them, I.
W. W. organizers arc finding a fertile
field in which to spread their propa
ganda. In the so-called 'workmen's

LONDON., Jan. 3 3. The Daily
Graphic takes exception to the recent
attitude of Secretary Daniels in urging
mac tne united States create for itseif
the greatest navy in the world. In un
editorial characterizing such utter
ances as ''threats," the Graphic says:
"The speeches of Secretary Daniels
appear to have been framed almost as
if it were his deliberate purpose to
give offenso to Great Britain. A few
days ago he was insisting that the
United States must have a navy equal
to that of any other country, lie goes
further now and declares, if the Ver
sailles cohfeT'Gnce does hot agree upon
limitations of naval armaments, tho
United States must bend its energies
toward the creation of the greatest
navy in the world.
"In plain language, that is meant
for this country, and between friends
threats are out of place. It would be
well If President Wilson were to cable
Mr. Daniels to put a little restraint
upon his language.
"In this country we have every de
sire to reduce our naval expenditure
to the lowest limit consistent with our
peculiar needs as an island empire.

The little stuff which usually cluu
lers up a session aeemed to bo In a
liard row this year. .
One of tho earllost moves, It Is
expected, will bo developed with the '
Introduction of a resolution for the j
ratification of tho National prohlhl '
tlon amendment. Senator D. L. i
Eddy, of Rosoburg, already has :a 1
resolution prepared which he wll !
shovo In early ln the session, prob';
amy as early as ho is given permis
sion to send It to the desk, It 1s
likely, however, that ho will hot bis
alone In this, and other members may ,
onrioavor to seek to have the honor j
of fathering the resolution providing i
for tho ratification ot this federal i
amendment. ' ' i.
It Is certain thore will be no pro-,
crastinatlon about the passage of the ' .
resolution, as legislators aro anxious
that Orogon should be one of the 36
states to ratify the amendment and .
wish to lot ho chances duvelop that
tho 36-mark tuny bo passed before
Oregon has a chanc-j to register Its
nfflrmativo vote. Opposition to this
measuro will ba virtually nil, If ;
there Is any ut all, although it is
considered barely posslblo thut one
or two mombera who have held I
strong prejudices on tho lhiuor (lues- '
tlon may register a verbal protest i

ment. "

Little moro In a tangible, way to
ward reconstruction legislation has
devolopcd than has been outlined ln .
tho past. That there will be a great '
grist of such legislation proposed, in
all sorts, and shapes and forms, is as
certain us Is tho fuel that the.ro wilt
bo a legislature, but it has been lm- j
posslblo so fur to place a finger on '
any .definite, co-ordtnnted, concrete
program that has boon scheduled. .
The hoys generally seem, to be wait
