FLIGHT PEGORD
BY PLANE AT SAM DIEGO
SAN DIEGO, Cal., Oct. 6. San Die
go listened to the song of the Liberty
motor all night long.
It was the never-failing drone of
the wonderous air machine that has
kept Lieutenant John MacReady and
Oakley Kelly a'-of t for more than a
day and a night and has given them
a new world record for sustained flight
in a heavier-than-air machine.
The mammoth Fokker transport
monoplane, built in America for the
army air service, cruised high under a
brilliant full moon directly over the
city all through the hours of semi
darkness. Its huge dragon-fly shape
was lined sharply against the moon
many times in the night and the roar
of its motor was always audible.
MacReady and Kelly set one ew
mark for aviation, when they sprang
into the air yesterday with the Liberty
motor lifting a load of 10,300 pounds.
They made, more air history shortly
before 3 o'clock this morning when
they passed the world's sustained
flight record of 21 hours and 48 min
utes held by Walter Landman of Ber
lin. They hopped off at 5:53 yesterday
morning. In a note dropped at Rock
well field the aviators declared that
they will stay aloft until their gasoline
snnnlv is exhausted, bearing other
untoward happenings. They esti-j
mated their landing time somewhere
between 4 and 7 o'clock this evening.
MacReady now holds the world's
record for altitude. It is 40,800 feet.
ANTI-KLAN
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10-Stirred to
action by repeated outrages of the Ku
Klux Klan in Texas, the Harding ad
ministration has determined to force
a showdown on the issue of the klan's
"invisible government."
This -decTslon reveals a situation un
ique in the annals of American poli
tical history. It will mean that a Re
publican administration will support
the candidacy of an independent Dem
the "hooded horror" of the klan in
Texks, where repeated outrages, in
cluding the tarring and feathering of
women, ire j-egarded as threatening
the soverefgnty of the federal govein
ment.
The decision to support Peddy was
reached at a White House conference
Saturday night between President
Harding, Attorney General Daugherty,
Secretary of War Weeks, and R. B.
Creager of Brownsville, Republican
state chairman and close friend of
the president.

OREGON CITY. ENTERPRISE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1 3, 1 922.
ATTEMPT TO HOLD UP
N.P.TI
Bandits Escape; Effort Made
By' Crew To Capture Pair
Unsupported By Travelers.
PORTLAND, Oct. 10. What is be
lieved to have been an attempt to hold
up a Portland-bound Northern Pacific
train near Tenino, Wash., early this
morning was thwarted by members of
the train crew, headed by Conductor
E. E. Young, of 585 East Eleventh
StreetNorth.
According to Young, who was in
charge of train No. 401, arriving at
Portland at 7:45 o'clock this morn
ing, two armed men, about 27 years
of age, were found wandering .about
in the sleeping car aisle by the Pull
man porter as the train passed Kyro.
Without showing any signs of re
sistance, the pair accompanied the
porter to the front end of the train,
where Pullman Conductor McLean,
Brakeman: Rube Mowison and Con
ductor Young surrounded them.
At that time one man was carry
ing two automatic revolvers, but
showed signs of weakening in his
suspected purpose of jobbing th&
train.
"Aw, come across with that gun,"
said the suspected bandit ,
The gun was delivered to the
other bandit and the train crew held
fat bay.
Efforts of Conductor loung to lock
the doors of the vestibule and hold
the men prisoners were thwarted by
the pair, as was an attempt to throw
off a message at Tenino, warning
the station master of the attempted
holdup.
At Tenino the two men pulled the
bell cord, bringing the train to a stop
and permitting them to escape, carry
ing with them the, overcoat of a trav
eler who chose to let the overcoat go
rather than attempt its recovery.
Twenty-five or thirty men, riding
in the smoking car, refused to assist
the train crew when Young suggest
ed that they rush the pair.
.. One theory of the affair is that
the men aboarded the train at Puy-'
allup, where a carload of race
horses was attached to the train
and a number, of race horse men,
known to carry a large sum of money,
boarded the sleeping car.
It is thought Jthat the pair intended
to hold up the" entire train in order
to get this money and such other val
uables as could be secured.
33 ARE KNOWN DEAD IN
FIRES AT HAILEYBURY
CABALT, Ont., Oct. 6. A heavy
rain today had virtually quenched the
forest fires about the city which cost
possibly sixty lives and destroyed the
town of Haileybury and several smal
ler settlements.
Thirty-three bodies have been re
covered in the scarred wreckage that
a week ago was Haileybury. Many
more persons are missing.
Trainloads of tents, food,' bedding
and other supplies are arriving to
aid the 5000 homeless who have wand
ered into Cabalt.
Relief measures have been under-1
lahcu u. a. 1 1 Lilt; ouu vuuunif, v
untouched by the conflagration. Scores
of families have been separated. Per
sonally supervised by Premier Drury
of Ontario, hundreds undertook the
work in North Bay and Cobalt. Thous
ands of refugees arrived at Cobalt and
relief trains carried the greater pro
portion of these south to North Bay.
The burned area in the Haileybury
district extends from Cobalt, one of
the largest towns in Northeastern On
tario, which was only saved by a
change in the wind's 'direction last
night, to Englehart to the north, a
distance of thirty miles. The entire
burning area spreads over the two
provinces of Quebec and Ontario, fan
shaped, with the three cities of Otta
wa, .Quebec and Montreal to the south.
Of these three, Montreal is prob
ably the nearest to the large fires.
In Haileybury the property loss is
estimated at ,uuu,uuu. ine uumucr.
of homeless is said to be at least
5000.
Farmers working in a potato field
on the outskirts of' Haileybury late
Tuesday, started a rubbish iire to
burn dried potato tops. Today, as
a result, only twenty houses stand
in the lake town of Haileybury.
MARINE BOOZE RULING
WASHINGTON, Oct 7. A flood of
international complications, the ser
iousness and extent of which officials
did not care to speculate on today, is
confidently expected to follow the gov
ernment's sweeping decision that no
booze of any sort under any flag may
come into the ports of these dry Unit
ed States;
An immediate world-wide howl of
protest is anticipated by government
officials from President Harding down
to the customs officials and dry au
thorities whose duty it will be to try
to enforce the unprecedented order
Officials took the position today,
however, that congress framed the lav
so as to giva the executive branch of
the government no other alternative,
and it is now up to congress to change
the law. if it wants it changed.
Orders were dispatched - by the
United States shipping board to cease
immediately the Bale of all liquor on
all boats flying the American flag. As
for the foreign ships, nothing will be
done toward enforcing the order until
the treasury experts figure out a way
to apply the "ships that touch liquor
shall not touch our ports.
Of 1.500.000 homes destroyed in Po
land during the war, about 500.000
htve been rebuilt.
Women Refuse Duty
On Jury Called To
Try Indian Slayer
DALLAS. Ore., Oct. !. Indications
this morning, when the trial of Phillip
Warren, Grand Ronde Indian, Indicted
for the murder of Federal Prohibition
Agents Glenn H. Price and Grover C.
Todd, was called, were that all of to
day, and possibly the greater part or
tomorrow, would be taken in securing
a jury. Immediately upon opening of
court today Judge H. H. Belt 'ordered
the calling of a special venire for the
trial.
This action on tne part of the
court was due to the refusal of
thirty-nine out of the forty women
on the regular jury panel to serve
in the Warren murder case. They
made t"hlr wishs. in this matter known
to the clerk of the court at various
times since the trial was set, and
when Judge Belt heard of the large
number of refusals he determined to
call an extra panel of thirty.
J. N. Helgerson, prosecuting at
torney of Polk county, will handle
the case for the state, and Warren
will be defended by Oscar Hayter of
Dallas.. Walter L. Tooze Jr., of Mc
Minnville, will assist the prosecution.
Warren maintained his typical
stoical demeanor when brought into
court this morning by Sheriff John
W. Orr. He appeared Indifferent to
the proceedings. A fair sized crowd
was in the courtroom, but though
the defendant is an Indian, practi
cally no fellow redskins were present.
Bend Legion Gives
Support To Ousted
Bonus Appraisers
BEND, Oct. 6. A vote of confidence
in H. J. Overturf. and O. B. Hardy,
recently summarily removed as ap
praisers for the bonus commission,
until such time as a competent legal
body shall decide upon their guilt or
innocense of the charges made by the
commission, was passed by Percy A.
Stevens post, American Legion, last
night. The post refused to recommend
anyone as successors of Overturf and
Hardy.
At the same time the post took steps
through the appointment of a com
mittee headed by Lynn B. Coovert, to
investigate fully the acts of the bonus
commission as 'regards Deschutes
county loan applications.
Members condemned the delay
which has resulted in only 24 loans
being granted out of more than 120 ap
plications, and the practice of re
ducing the amount of loans by cutting
down the appraisal, as has been done,
it was declared, in virtually every
case.
Thousands of dollars are tied up in
lands brought under bonus loans
which are being delayed, and owners
of land are begining to refuse to sell
if the bonus is to be used as a partof
the purchase price, it was declared.

PREJUDICE CHARGED BY
OUSTED BONUS OFFICIAL
BEND. Oct. X,. governor Olcott has
treated him as a political outcast ever
since the passage at the 1921 special
session of his bill proving for the
return of funds to the irrigation dist
ricts of the state, was declared
Wednesday by H. J. Overturf, state
representative, who is a candidate for
re-election, in explaining the charges
of padding appraisals which caused
his removal as bonus appraiser for
Deschutes ounty Monday.
As the charges of padding appraisals
on lands in which he was personally
interested, Overturf brands them as

He has asked the circuit judge of the
district to call the grand jury as early
alleged irregularities which the bonus
commission may produce.
Should either" party request it, the
grand jury will be called November 1.
Judge T. E. J. Duffy stated.
Frank R." Prince, former service man
resigned Wednesday as a Republican
precinct committeeman. Prince states
that he resigned in order to be in a
position to express his opinion on the
matter, of Overturfs removal, but not
directly as a protest against that ac
tion. Film Exchange In

! was rocked by explosions early to

Ralph E. Williams
Is Not In Line For
Federal Position
WASHINGTON, Oct. 5". Reports
that Ralph E. Williams, Republican
national committeeman from Ore-
rgon, is being seriously considered for
an appointment to be assistant sec
retary of the treasury to fill the va
cancy made by the resignation of El
mer Dover are much like the story
told of Mark Twain, whose perma
ture death report annoyed him and
which he dissipated with, the remark
that "it was greatly exagerated."
Neither Senator McNary nor Sen
ator Stanfield have, either formally
or informally, been consulted on the
appointment to the place.
Chairman Adams of the Republi
can national committee is out of town,
but his office denies any knowledge
of the alleged idea of appointing Wil
liams to this post. At the treasury de
partment it was said that the matter
of filling the vacancy has been referr
ed to Secretary Mellon personally, dui
no decision has been reached and that
the prospects were that the place
would ultimately go to an experienced
internal revenue man or expert bank-
er. No one was aumuria .u k-
