14 THE MORMXG OREGOXIAX, MONDAY, MARCH 28, 1910. APPLE MEN MUST FIGHT ON TO Lafean Bill Postponed, but Eastern Interests Will Renew Contest. HONEST PACK IMPORTANT Committee Chagrined by Failure of Boxes Purchased in Open Mar ket to Reach Standard. Pears Are Profitable. "Apple-growers of Oregon and Wash ington have not won the fight against the adoption of the Lafean bill regu lating the size of barrels and boxes in which apples may e shipped to East ern markets. Action has been onlv postponed," said W. K. Newell, presi dent of the State Board of Horticul ture, at the Imperial yesterday. Mr. Newell is in the city for the first time since his return from Washington, where he appeared on March 9, 10 and 11 before the Congressional committee having the Lafean bill in charge. L. u. Monroe, representing the Chamber of Commerce at Spokane, and C. E. Whist ler, representing Southern Oregon, ac companied Mr. Newell and participated in the . three days' fight against the bill, which is designed to assist the apple-grower of the East at the ex pense of those in the Northwest. Joe Wilson, of Hood River, and J. A. Tlchenal, of Wenatchee, reinforced the advance guard of apple-growers before the hearing was over. Pack Found Short. In discussing the situation Mr. Newell was emphatic in his criticism of meth ods of packing Oregon and Washington fruit which prevented a demonstration before the committee that would prob ably have resulted In killing the Lafean bill by a decisive vote. The Western delegation wanted to show that the "Oregon box" did contain a full bushel of apples and was suitable for adoption as the standard for pack ers of the United States. The boxes of apples which Mr. Newell and asso ciates took with them were opened be fore the Congressional committee and met the bushel test. "We then went out on the market." said Mr. Newell, "and purchased from shippers of Oregon and Washington apples several boxes which had been packed for sale to the general public. Much to our chagrin, the contents of every one of those boxes fell short on the bushel test. The growers had sim ply failed to pack their fruit properly, and the boxes were short. "If the Incident teaches anything, it is that Oregon and Washington must compete for the Eastern market, and with honest methods. Our people must place a bushel of apples in every Ore gon standard box they ship. On qual ity and size we had no competition, but Colorado, New York and Virginia are producing a splendid quality of mar ketable fruit, and we must meet those growers with equal fruit and a square method of packing. Action 19 Referred. "Our delegation received every as surance that no action looking to the immediate passage of the Lafean bill will be pressed at the present Con gress. The committee has been inter ested and intends to give the question thorough investigation. "No one knows what the next Con gress may do, but it is probable that the Commission men will endeavor again to pass that or a similar meas ure. It is therefore necessary that Oregon and Washington fruitgrowers prepare to meet the emergency. On the last day of the hearing I suggested to the committee before whom we ap peared that an act be prepared and passed as a substitute for the Lafean measure requiring, under severe penal ties, that each package or box be lab eled with the name of the packer, the amount of contents, the character and classification of the fruit and such other information ajs might be consid ered necessary. The Idea met with considerable favor. We must get to gether out here and decide upon what we will ask for. "The Lafean bill would revolutionize the methods of packing apples, as has been learned by the Washington and Oregon grower.- It required that a box containing 170 cubic Inches of space more than the Oregon standard box be used. The Eastern grocery man sens by the peck and bushel-- They asserted before the committee that they were required to give a full rounded peck or bushel of measurement. We found in tests made in the committee room that when an Oregon box is properly packed it did contain four rounded pecks, but in the boxes purchased from various quarters the measurement was short of that standard. Tight Pack Xeeded." "Oregon growers contend for the sale of fruit by the box, and have never adopted any other method. Our fancy apples sell by the dozen or box, but in contending for the bushel market we must meet the situation as we find it. An honest, tight pack will win. "Our demonstration of grades was successful In convincing the committee that the classification proposed by the Lafean bill was unfair. The bill pro vided that- United States standard A apples should measure 2V4 Inches in diameter, standard B 2 i inches and standard C 2 Inches. Our fruit gen erally averages bigger than that, and we asked that United States standard A should be 3 "4 inches In diameter, stand ard B 3 Inches and standard C 2V4 inches. Of course that classification would place the average Eastern ap ple on the market In class C, their fruit generally being smaller than that of this Coast. "But our chief argument on that point was that there shouTd be no standard at all. We believe that it is an impossibility for the Government to make a standard for an apple or any other perishable product. The Lafean bill also attempted to regulate the col or, shape and points of the apple. We called In Government experts from the Washington Department of Agriculture and proved that for a dozen reasons such a standard could not be fixed by law. Conditions of growing which wouldi apply to Oregon would not ap ply to Virginia and New York. Freight May Be Reduced. "Washington and Oregon shippers pay freight enarges oi ou cents a box nlnrA their annles on the New Ynrlf market. We may possibly get a Ha or 40 cent rate at a later date, but the Tv'ew York grower can reach the mar ket at a cost not to excee"d 15 cents a. - - that expense except on quality. Ther in are thousands of new orchards going in now and the growers must realize that it will require the same methods to retain the standard oi quality which were required to produce the present reputation of Oregon fruit. 'Colorado and Virginia are compet ing for the markets. They are doing a large amount of planting there and are growing a good quality of fruit. In Virginia the growers are - putting out the New York Imperial, Winesap and Jonathans to a larger extent than the Yellow Newtowns. "Our Spitzenbergs are attracting a great deal of attention on the market and should not be neglected in setting out the new orchards, even though harder to grow. They are selling in New York for $4 a box as against any New York State product at $2.50 a box. "But Oregon fruitgrowers have a great opportunity to secure the pear market of the world. We can grow the fruit which the Eastern seaboard Is now receiving from France. The Eastern climate Is against successful raising of pears. The Rogue River and the Willamette Valleys have ideal cli matic conditions for that fruit. It is quickly grown and the prices are good. I am arranging to secure a comprehen sive information sheet as to prices all over the East. Pears from Rogue River are a delicacy now in the large res- W. K.

STRIKE PLANS EXTENDED? I. FATHER WORKERS' ORGAN IZER SAYS MORE YVILI, GO OUT. Employers Reiterate Position That - They Cannot Grant Demands Unless Eastern Cities Join. P Yopt. organizer for the leatherwork ers. said yesterday that plans for ex tending the strike of leatherworkers for an eight-hour day. begun in Portland last Monday, will be placed in operation today. A meeting of the union will be held this afternoon. Organizer Yost said that emissaries of the union had been at work among the men not heretofore identified with organ ized labor and that many bad agreed to cast their fortunes with the strikers. He predicted that the scope of the strike will be so extetnded a practically to cause a cessation of manufacturing in the leather lines in Portland. Among the larger concerns in which a walkout is predicted by Yost is that of the George Lawrence Company, at 86 First street. Yost declared that most, if not all. of the men there employed had been won over. That some new move is on foot among the men is believed by the manufacturers of the city but exact information of what Is contemplated had not reached W. T. Clark, of the John Clark Saddlery Com panv, last night. "The strike situation is unchanged, so far as we know," said Mr. Clark. "The n.m.

Mrs. If1'- V A MISS KOENEN DOES NOT ASPIRE TO GRAND OPERA Although Requested to Appear at Bayreuth, the Dutch Contralto Has Refused Honor. Opera Ruins Many Voices, She Says. BY JOSEPH M. QUENTIN. TILLY KOENEN will never marry or sing In grand opera, and as a fun maker she prefers Harry Lauder. Miss Koenen said so last night at"tlie Portland Hotel, and she ought to know. She is one of the greatest contraltos in the world some eminent judges say she is the very greatest, and is to be the star attraction at concert to be given this evening by the Scottish Rite Ma sons in their handsome cathedral, Morri son and Lownsdale streets. No tickets are to be sold for this concert it is a musical treat to Scottish Rite Masons and their families. When waiting for- MLss Koenen to ap pear in the hotel parlor. I remembered that she is a person of distinguished Dutch ancestry and Is a personal friend of Queen Wilhelmina. of Holland. I therefore pictured to myself a tall, thin woman of blue-blood aspect, a woman with stern-looking eyes and a pointed nose. I had read somewhere that Miss Koenen was born in the Island of Java, and that her father was a Dutch General of cavalry and was Governor of the prov ince. Imagine my surprise, then, when Miss Koenen came in. and turned out to be a laughing sunbeam, a democratic looktng woman who seemed to radiate health, happiness and a good-natured op timism that bubbled over. Her cheeks challenge the pink of an Oregon apple. "Yes. I'm Miss Koenen not madame," said the contralto, with a deep, mellow laugh. "I. Bhall never marry, because one cannot be a concert einger. and be a married woman with a husband and a home all at the same time. Something must give way. In that case. 1 shall never sing in grand opera, because I wish to sing what I like and when I like, and not from the narrow groove, fashioned within one role. I am Dutch and I de sire to be free. "I prefer to sing in concert. So many good voices have been ruined in grand opera, especially modem grand opera. Persons who are not trained singers should not attempt grand opera for the reason given but, of course, this sort of singing is open to trained singers. If they so wish. Frau Coslma Wagner haa asked me to sing In grand opera at BeyreuTh. and I have refused the great honor, to her great wrath. There is only one opera in which I should like to sing. Gluck's "Or feo." Some day I may do so, but not now." "Have you sung all your life?" was asked. "My mother desired that I should be a pianist, and when very young I began the study of the piano at a time when I sang soprano." replied Miss Koenen, with a far-away look in her eyes. "When I was 14 or 15 years old, my voice changed to contralto, and I knew that I was going to be a singer. I have been studying and singing ever since. My vocal compass is from G below the staff to G above the staff, two octaves. I can sing higher if necessary but don't care Dollar has been visiting in Seattle for the past week. H. S.

UNIVERSITY HELPS MANY Rev. Dr. Homan Praises Founders of Willamette. "The Willamette University is one of the foremost educational institutions on the Pacific Coast and is destined to be a still greater factor In Christian educa tion," said Rev. Dr. Fletcher Homan, its president, in his sermon yester day morning in Centenary Methodist Church. The subject of the address was "Christian .Education." and Dr. Homan told of the Willamette University and what it has undertaken to do in the Northwest. He said that many young men are working their way through the school and that one of the boys who had worked his way through is now a member of Congress from Ore gon. "We have been building at Willam ette University for the past 60 years," said Dr. Homan, "while the other Chris tian institutions of the East haye been building for 300, 200 and 100 years. The little band of 50 pioneer mission aries who raised $3800 in the pioneer days to start this school builded for all eternity. They knew what sacri fices were, surrounded by a great wil derness, when they made their sub scription. There are important things in store for Willamette University."
