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-

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

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

"The Willamette University is one of

its president, in his sermon yester
day morning in Centenary Methodist

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

said Dr. Homan, "while the other Chris
