LACK OF HARMONY
IN HEALTH OFFICE
DECLARED FATAL
Failure to Provide Care of
Epidemic Situation Is Held
Responsible for Death of
One, Perhaps Two Children.
ACCUSATION IS MADE
BY DR. O. A. WELSH
Matter Will Be Taken Up at
Budget Meeting in Effort
To Increase Appropriation.
Charges that the inharmony in the
organization, of the county health
board which has hampered its opera
tion fcr the past year and a half has
resulted in one and possibly two pre
ventable deaths, will be made at the
county Ibudget meeting December 30,
according to Dr. O. A. Welsh, county
health officer. Failure to provide the
machinery with which to handle a
situation , at Molalla potentially
amounting to an epidemic is laid, by
the health officer at Che door of the
county court and its course in the
handling of the health affairs of the
county, Welsh states.
July 1, 1921, the county court at
tempted, to remove Welsh and aftei
a long fight here during which the
court refused to prefer charges against
him, he was retained by the state
board of health. Since then the two
commissioners have authorized some
of the bills of the health office an?
sometimes they have not. The action
against Welsh was directed by County
Judge H. E. Cross, and the depart
mental salary reduced to the legal
minimum.
Epidemic Is Put Down
About Bix months ago a smallpox
epidemic started at Estacada, Welsh
declares. Because the court had re
fused to meet any of the expenses of
conducting the health work, Welsh
declined to act in cleaning -up the
condition. The state board of health
declared that unless the matter were
taken caie of the entire county would
be. quarantined. Welsh then went to
Estacada to take the situation, al
though no expenses were allowed.
October 16 a case of diphtheria was
reported at Molalla. Because of the
attitude of the court in what he de
clares practically hampered the work
of his department, Welsh took no
action.' Two subsequent cases wen
reported, one November 4 and another
j.be- 'i t. All three of the chil-
2ld.
h.sh declares that had the proper
utions beez taken after the re
of the first r?,se 'one case and
bly the other could have been
nted.
Board Is Alarmed
rmed over . the situation the
I 1 board at Molalla took action
l Imade arrangements with Welh
Jleet the expenses of probing the
( cWdition and making the necessary
j qlarantines. The school children
' have been examined for probaible car- i
riers of the disease and other preven-j
tative measures taken.
The children who died were Irene
Jagger, 9, Gosh Gregory, 8, and Elbert
Lloyd, 6.
The appropriation for the health
officer was cut to the minimum this
year by the budget committee and
Welsh is to make an effort to secure
the enlargement of the appropriation
to cover a salary of more than the
$25 allowed by law and the expenses
. of operation. Since July 1, 1922, there
has been no recognized health officer
in the county, although under the or
ders of the state board of health that
Welsh could not be removed without
,a bearing, the doctor hag been serving1
under protest of the county judge and
at times with the approval of the two
commissioners.
'Fatty' Arbuckle Is
Censured for New
..--Return to Movies
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Dec. 21.
Roscoe C." ("Fatty") Arbuckle, com
edian, today was making ready for
his re-entry into motion pictures
after January 1, while members of
the Los Angeles district Federation
of Women's clubs announced they
could "not recede from their opposi
tion" to his plans.
After Will H. Hays, titular head of
the motion picture industry, announc
ed yesterday that Arbuckle might
have another "chance to make good,
the Los Angeles district adopted a
resolution affirming a previous one
opposing his reappearance in pictures
Mrs. J. C- TJrquhart, president of
the district, stated that, although Ar
buckle at his third trial in San Fran
cisco, had been acquitted of causing
the death of Virginia Rappe, screen
actress, the testimony "was of such
character as to bar him forever from
appearing before a decent, self re
specting public." .

NAME OF POSTOFFICE
FOR HOFF IS CHANGED
Mail Must Now Be Addressed
"Beavercreek"; Mrs. Geo.
Havill Named to Office.
Beavercreek has received a Christ
mas present fom the postoffice de
partment, a new name for the office
and the re-appointment of Mrs. George
Havill as postmistress. The postof
fice will be now known as Beaver-
.1
name in 1916 when J. k. iw" was
appointed, postmaster when the office
was established.
The place was known, previous to
that time, as "Beaver Creek," and the
name now must be written as one
word, eliminating the capital "C," al
though many petitions have been sen
to Washington to have the postoffice
name changed back to the original
name'. The place has been known as
"Beaver Creek" from 184T until
changed to Hoff in 1916.
After serving as postmaster for
three years, Hoff resigned. The of
fice wag then turned over to Mrs.
George Havill, who has since acted as
the postmistress.
The station on the Willamette Val
ley Southern railway is known as
Beaver Creek, also the business houses
and telephone directory, and in so
changing the name from Hoff all are
benefitted. v
There are from 400 to 500 patrons
of the Beavercreek postoffice, and
150 mail boxes on the route. During
the past two years the number of
patrons has greatly increased.
2 Portland Men
Held on Charges
Of Making Booze
A still said by Sheriff Wilson to be
the biggest ever confiscated in the
county, with' a capacity of between
five and ten gallons of finished moon
shine per hour, was located Thursday
morning by the sheriff's office. A. C.
Nutter and E. C. Younger, who state
that they live in Portland, are in the
county jail charged with a conspiracy
to avoid the prohibition laws.
The still was in the process of com
pletion and had never been used, but
a number of containers, with about a
pint of liquor were found in the house
on the 82nd street road which they had
rented from W. W. Leete.
Sheriff Wilson and Deputy Carl
Long raided the home on the Clacka
mas cut-off near Gladstone, just off
the main highway. The up-stairs of
the house had been finished by the
two men and a special room, the floor
and walls covered with tar roofing
paper had been arranged to house the
still. . A brick grate with pressure
gas burner, was built. The water
coil had been built inside an old
automobile gasoline tank and the
still itself fashioned out " of sheet
copper, in an oval shape five feet in
diameter. The apparatus was almost
ready to set up. A number of plum
ber's tools used in its construction,
together with -a small quantity of mash
was also found.
The two men are being held in jail
here in default of $750 bail each. A
preliminary hearing in the justice
court will probably be held today.
Hurry Bundell, arrested by Con
stable Ed Fortune in the raid conduct
ed by- the constable and sheriff's of
fice at tne Hall filling station in
Gladstone Wednesday was fined $500
and six months in jail by Judge E.
J. Noble on a plea of guilty. O. Hall,
who pleaded, not guilty is to stand
trial for the same offense-
OPERATION OF BOOM IS
PROTESTED AT OSWEGO
Testimony" Of Theodore B. Brown,
forestry e-agineer and lumber manu
facturer, interded to prove that there
is no - A:onomiic necessity for the op
eration of a log booming company at
Oswego, as contemplated by the Os
wego Log & Boom company, aocupied
the entire morning session of the pub
lic service commission Friday.
Brown's testimony was admitted
subject to the objection of Oliver B.
Huston, representing the boom com
pany, based on the claim that Brown
is not a registered engineer under
the state law. Brown testified that
his firm, Brown & Brown, is duly
registered.
. Of the 924,000,000 feet of logs
brought into the Portland district
during 1921, only approximately 70,
000,000 feet came over the Southern
Pacific rail lines, Brown testified. He
also testified that there are no pros
pects, in his opinion, of a shortage
of logs in the Portland market if ad
ditional logging facilities are not de
veloped south of Portland " and tribu
tary to the Southern Pacific lines, as
was previously claimed in the . hear-
ing.
The 'application of the Oswego Log
& Boom company is opposed by the
Oregon Iron & Steel company, own
ers of ,the riparian rights along Os
wego lake, and toy residents of the
lake, district.

ASSESSMENT CUT
BY STATE NOT TO
LOWER TAX HERE
Reduction of Levy to Be More
Than Made Up by Addition
To Local Imposts Believes
County Assessor W.B.Cook
uuii l 1
RATIOS ARE REDUCED
Assessment Percentage Is Set
At .49; Change Is Expected
To Have Only Little Effect.
Although the state tax assessed
against Clackamas county for 1923
will Ibe reduced $13,404.03, the differ
ence in the entire levy over the coun
ty will not ibe material, according to
Countv Assessor W. B. Cook The
tax levy for the coming year will not
be completed until about next Feb
ruary and definite figures are as yet
not available. Other increases in 'the
tax levies this year will more. .than
make lip the difference, Cook expects.
The amount of state tax to be raised
by the county according to word re
ceived by County Clerk Fred A. Miller
will be $342,276.12 for 1923 as against
$355,680.15 for the previous year. This
will mean a difference of .3 of a mill
in the state levy for the county, Cook
points out The total difference for
the general state levy is .4 of a mill
but the slight' decrease for this par
ticular county comes in the change
of the valuation rating. The. state
tax commission cut Clackamas coun
ty's rating from 50 per cent to 49
per cent. Under the system it is then
presumed that the assessed valuations
in Clackamas county are 49 per cent
of the actual value. The amount of
state tax is then computed upon the
so-called actual valuation, and the
lower the ratio runs the higher the
amount of the proportionate tax.
The county levy will be determined
at the budget meeting on the 30th of
this month. The levy as drawn for
the tentative budget provides no in
crease in the amount levied last year,
but the county court Is to ask the tax
payers to make the 6 per cent increase
and to apply the difference upon the
reduction of the outstanding warrant
indebtedness of approximately $350,
000 which draws in the neighborhood
of $60 a day interest.

McAdams was the heroine and an
unidentified youth about 17 years of
age the hero of the Lillian apartment
fire early this morning, which prac

Although the fire lacked spectacu
lar features, thousands of persons and
scores of automobiles responded to
the alarm, which was sounded short
ly after 1 a. m., and crowded streets
for -three blocks around the burning
building.
Damage of between $35,000 and
$40,000 was done by the fire, of which
approximately $12,000 was personal
loss to tenants. The entire loss is

PLANS ARE MADE
TODOUBLEWOI
OF COUNTY AGENT
Revision of Organization of
Office' Is Projected Under
Budget for 1923; Activity
Of Clubs to Be Continued.
RELATIVE COST FOR
CLACKAMAS IS LOW
Fourteen Cents Is Paid Out
Of Every $52 To keep Up
Farm Extension Program.
Plans for practically doubling the
work to be accomplished by the coun
ty agent's office during the coming
year, without any material increase
in the appropriation over funds for
merly budgeted for this work, are be
ing made by Walter A. Holt, in charge
of the local office.
The inclusion of $1750 for provision
for a club leader is made in the. ten
tative budget for 1923, and although
the item shows an increase over the
present year, it is practically the same
as wag provided in 1921, but curtailed
from the 1922 schedule.
The plan as outlined by Holt is to
put another man in the office if the
appropriation, carries this year, to do
club leader work and act as assistant
county agent. Under the previous
systm the club work, which embraces
the extension education among the
boys and girls in the farm communi
ties has been practically separate
from the county agent's activities.
Under the new system, the two would
be closely combined with the two men
dividing the major portion of the ac
tivities.
Clackamas county during the past
two years has attained an excellent
record for agricultural extension work.
The activities of the county aScat!r - " h ro.
-- ' taming to the program may be re-
r'VrriJr lr. r
civic and commercial organizations.
The appropriation for farm bureau
work this year, amounts to less than
14 cents out of each $52 in taxes,' it
is pointed out. This is inclusive of
the club leader and assistant county
agent, who in the tentative budget is
listed as "assistant leader." The ap
propriation, it is declared, is low com
pared with that of other counties in
the state doing the same class of
work. , Sherman county, which forms
one of the close comparisons, pays
16 cents.

But "There's a Reason! "
The Willard Storage Battery Com
pany of Cleveland, say thi3 is the
worst season of the year on a battery.
This is the season when the motorist
is ' suffering from a congested car
buretor. He has not adjusted this
most important part of the car to
winter conditions. The mixture of !
f"-? he trle" .t0 V?Tt the!
engine is the same as that which was :
used all summer. It's too lean and
will not ignite. The longer the driver
holds down the starting pedal, the
more current he is using from the bat
tery and after a morning, or two of
such doings the battery will need re
charging. It's far better to adjust a carburetor
and save the battery and it's, cheaper
in the long run.
MAN HELD ON CHARGES
OF FORGERY RELEASED
C. H. Nelson, arrested in Los An

of a check upon an Oregon City bank,

authorities. Nelson wan harewl with

here for trial.
Hughes left December 12 for Los
Angeles armed with extradition pa-,

Stock In Woolen
Mill Now Owned
By A. R. Jacobs
The entire stock in the local woolen
mills, known as the Oregon City
Manufacturing company, is now owned
by A. R. Jacobs, for many years presi
dent and manager of the concern. The
purchase of the interests of I- Jacobs
was announced by the local mill man
Thursday.
The stock in the concern, according
to the president, was held in equal
ownership by his own and the I. Ja
cobs family. Jacobs declined to state
the amount involved in the transfer
but it is believed that approximately
$750,000 is the amount.
A. R. Jacobs is to continue as presi
dent and manager of the firm. No
changes in the organization are plan

be made at this time as to probable
improvements upon the part of the
woolen mill but it is probable, the
president states, that negotiations for
enlargements may be started in the
near future.
The Oregon City Manufacturing
company owns and operates a large
textile factory here and a garment
factory in Portland. It employs be
tween 700 and 800 men and women
and the value of the plant is esti

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21. A move
to instruct President Harding to call
a world economic conference in -addition
to the proposed world disarma
ment conference was made today by
Senator Borah when he introduced an

marines was approved today by the
senate naval affairs committee in
recommending a favorable report on
the 1923-24 navy appropriations bill,
carrying a total of $295,604,37S.
As passed by the house, the bill re-

STRAIGHT PARDON
IS NOW IN HANDS
OFNEWGOVERNOR
jy Rittner Refuses Action
In Commutation of Term of
Oregon City Moonshiner
Serving Sentence of Year.
RECOMMENDATION IS
MADE BY E. J. NOBLE
j Conditional Parole Asked if
Executive Finds Relief of
Penalty Here Is Advisable.
The pardon of Charles Straight, if
such is ever granted, will have to
come from Governor Walter Pierce.
Acticn upon the request made to the
governor in behalf of the Oregon City
moonshiner, has been refused by Act
ing Governor Jtittner, according to
word received Tuesday by E. J. Noble,
justice of the peace. The request has '
been held over until the new admin
istration takes office.
Straight was arrested August 14 of
this year, and after a trial nine days
later was found guilty of violating the
prohibition laws and fined $500 and,
sentenced to serve a year in the coun
ty jail. In' default of payment of the
fine he was to serve 250 days in jail
in addition.
Straight has still more than a year
to serve on his sentence and several
of the local officials -have recommend
ed that he be pardoned or condition
ally parolled. No local court has the
power to ferant this parole but the
presentation is being made before the
state's chief executive.
Case Is Cited
In his draft to the governor con
cerning the case, after reciting the
detailed legal facts, Judge Noble
says:
"Charles Straight was convicted in
the federal court about two weeks be
fore, being brought in here on a
charge of violation of the prohibition
laws." He was convicted on the same
charge (before in the federal court
and once before in this court. He has
also been convicted of a violation of
the game laws, and has been a source
of trouble to the fish wardens in
fishing illegally although cenviction
has been difficult.
"I have personally heard him boast
ing, in the barber shop and on the
street, that he did not care if he was
convicted as the county would then
be compelled to take care of him and
also his family. While he was plead-'
ing for mercy ini the federal court
liquor was sold at his home, and after
being arraigned and admitted to bail
liquor was again sold at his home. ,
Recommendation Is Made
"After the above review and with
the understanding that Charles
Straight is applying to the governor
of the state of Oregon for a pardon,
I make the following recommendation
for the reason that Straight has sev
eral small children the mother now
being dead that must be taken care
of and if he is not compelled to do
so it will be a burden on the taxpay
ers: 0
"I, E. J. Noble, justice of the peace
for district iNo. 4, Clackamas county,
Oregon, and the justice before whom
Charles Straight was tried, convicted
and sentenced, hereby recommend to
the honorable governor ot the state
of Oregon that the said Charles
Straight be paroled from the sentence
herein set forth "on the following con
ditions, to-wit:
"That he be required to pay the fine
assessed against nim at a rate of not
less than $15 per month;
"That he observe all the laws of
the land, government, state, county
and municipal and upon the violation
of any of the above laws, that he be
compelled to serve the balance of the
1;
That he be required to give his
children the proper attention both a3
to physical support and comfort and
education;
"That he keep himself regularly
employed at some occupation by
which he can support himself and
children and pay on. the penalty as
required ;
"That he be required to report
every two weeks to some responsible
person designated by yourself;
"That he do not engage in the oc
cupation of fishing except on special
permission of the fish and game com
mission (in writing).
"In view of his past record and his
attitude toward and his non-respect
for the law I do not feel that he
should be given too much considera
tion, but (being personally familiar
with the entire case, I do feel that if
