A. W. Lawrence Denies Double

Tht the new f.unlne letter which
4 now appearing In Kastern papers
over the signature of A. W. Law
rrnrr. secretary of the Labor Council.
I not an evidence of bad fiilth on the
part of the Labor Council toward the
Govrrnnr of Oregon and toward tha
Stat Immigration Commission. wa tha
declaration of Mr Lawrence yesterday
to State Immigration Asent C. C Chap
men. The labor secretary announced
thnt he would prepare at onca a for
mal letter to be sent to the state Im
mljrraflon office. In which he Intends to
embody an explanation for the ap
pearance of the new -famine letter,
which he believes will fully exonerate
the U!or Council from the stigma of
broken faith.
Mr. Chapman pained his first knowl
edae of the new "famine letter"
through clipping's from Eastern papers
received last Saturday. He at onca
addressed a letter to Mr. Lawrence,
recalling the tacit promise made by
members of the Central Labor Council
that no more letters that might have
nn Injurious effect upon the state would
be published without a conference
being tirsi held with the state Immigra
tion office.
e-Operatlea Promised.
It ws promls-d that the Labor
. Council would endeavor to co-operate
with the stale in an effort to brlnar
to Oregon the agricultural type of
tmmirrant. saying that the "famine
letter" had not heen directed to these,
but to the laboring class, which. It was
feared, mtfcht come In Urge numbers
and create a serious condition In the
crowded cltv centers.
Calling upon Mr. Chapman yesterday
afternoon Mr. 1-awrence denied that Iha
I.ai.r Council had in any way broken
faith with him as state Immigration
aaent. declaring that no letters had
been Issued since the conference Mr.
Chapman had held with the Council.
.Mr. Lawrence explained that at the
time the ttrsl "famine letter"' was sent
to the pre.s and to Oovernors of
various states, another had been sent
lo labor organisation throughout the
state. Tins was withheld from publi
cation until the associations had passed
upon it In their regular meetings. Ac
cording lo Mr. Lawrence this accounts
for the appearance of the letter at thta
late flat.-, after the effect of the flrst
letters, which were Issued at the same
time but gained Immediate publicity,
had in a measure died out.
oaftrsaatlna rreaslaed.
"If this Is the case." said Mr. Chap-Traan-yeaierday."
"there; ts no -ground" on
which to accuse the Labor Council of
having acted In bad faith with the
'Immigration Commission. Mr. Law-"renre-
assures me that he will be able
to place in my hands at an early date
official confirmation of hla explanation
for the lay; appearance of tnls new
letter.
"Mr. Lawrence has taken a very fair
and straightforward altitude In the
matter, and It appears that the Immi
gration Commission and the Labor
Council may be able to get together
without further misunderstanding.
"The fact remains, however, that this
new letter ts appearing In the East
and Is working damage. Irrespective of
whether It was sent out from the Labor
Council last week or two months ago.
Now that It has appeared It will be
necessary for the Immigration com
mittee to prepare a plain statement of
-facts for publication In the East to
counteract misrepresentations that
have appeared In the letter. I trust
that the members of the Central Labor
Council will not take Issue with the
Immigration Board on a plain state
ment of facts as they actually exist In
Oregon, but will lend Its assistance In
an effort to set matters right."
In evidence of the desire of the labor
organisation to co-operate with the
Immigration Commission. Mr. Lawrence
informed Mr. Chapman that the com
mittee; appointed from the Labor Coun
cil to obtain for the World's Work
facts and figures upon labor conditions
in Oregon, will confer with him when
It has prepared a report, and permit
him to examine the article they have
written. The committee was appointed
last Friday In response to a request
from the World's Work msgaslne,
which had published the first "famine
letter." for further Information on In
dustrial conditions In Oregon.

Police Head Orders Subordinate to
Make Charges in Case Agalnet
Palrolman Pel er son.
PORTLAND. April I. (To the Editor.)
In your Issue of April 4 appear an
article respecting the trial In the Mu
nicipal Court of Officer I-ewls and
Ben Peterson, and a quotation from
Tollre Chief Slover. In which ha wii
reported to have said that the attorneys
could make a monkey out of the court,
but could not make a monkey out of
him.
In justice to myself, my client and
to Judge Taawell I crave your Indulg
ence to make a statement of this case.
On March 11. 1912. the police made a
raid upon a Chinese gambling den and
Officers Lewis and Peterson partici
pated In making the arrests. After the
raid Chinamen and their attorney. Dan
Powers, claimed a revolver belonging
to a Chinaman was missing and that
someone connected with the raid must
have taken it. though no specific offi
cer or other person was accused. Tha
matter dragged along from March 12.
1912. until April 2. 1912. when. It Is aaid
by Chief Slover. be brought pressure
to bear upon the various officers In
volved, and Officer Lewi admitted to
having taken the gun. Chief Slover
thereupon placed Lewis under arrest.
After he had been' arrested and sus
pended, and after Officer Ben Peterson
had gone upon his beat Officer Lewis
made a statement Implicating Peterson
In the taking of the gun. Chief Slover
thereupon ordered Officer Harmea to
file a complaint against Peterson,
which he did. I defended Ben Peter
son at the trlaL.
Officer Harmes. who swore to the
complaint, when placed upon the wit
nesa stand knew nothing whatever
about the case, did not know to whom
the gun belonged, did not know that
any officer or other person took it: al
though he Jiad sworn In hla complaint
that Officer Lewis and Ben Peterson
atole the gun. Chief of Police Slover
was In court, and he stated In open j
court that the Chinaman to whom the
gun belonged had refuaed to. make a
complaint: not only had he done so, but
had left the'Clty of Portland; and he
also stated that Dan Powers, attorney
for the Chinaman, had refused to make
a complaint, and that he. Chief Slover.
thereupon ordered Officer Harmea to
file the complaint. During the trial
Judge Taswell Informed Chief Slover
and the District Attorney that they
must prove the ownership of the gun
In order to make a caae against either
of the officer. They were unable to
do- this and Judge Taswell dismissed
the casea on this ground.
After the caaea had been dismissed.
I and Ben Peterson went to Chief Slo
ver and explained to htm all of the
facta about thia caae and called one
other bfflcer who wa In the room with
Ben Peterson at the time, who atated
to the Chief that Peterson did not take
the gun, waa not in the bedroom where
the gun waa and could not have taken
It if he so desired; and upon this show
ing asked the Chief to reinstate Peter
son upon the force. Without giving
any reason be decnnea to ao so.
Chief Slover admitted 'that Officer
Ben Peterson had been on tha force
even years, had alway been honest
and trustworthy, had never been ac-
cuaed of any wrong and bad varloua
and numbers of opportunities to have
been dishonest had be been that kind
of a man.
Chief Slover. so far as Ben Peterson
I concerned, is making a sacrifice of
a faithful, honest officer. Peterson ts
a man of a family, la economical, re
spectable and stands high In the Odd
fellows of which he Is a member: and
notwithstanding the Chief's brave at
titude he ha assumed he did not have
the courage to file tha complaint him
self against thl officer, but ordered
his subordinate to do so: and he knew
when he ordered Harmes to swear to
this complaint that he wa ordering a
subordinate officer to awear to thing
he knew nothing about and to thing
he had no mean of knowing whether
they were true or false. And he Is
further making a aacrlflce of thla of
ficer by auapendlng him from the serv
ices when there are no charges pending
agalnat him either before a court or
before the Police Commission, and I
will further state that there art no
charges pending against Peterson be
cause Chief of Police Slover knows he
Is an Innocent man.
I do not know what the outcome of
this case will be. but ask you to pub
lish this letter In Justice to an officer
who haa been faithful In the discharge
of hla duties.
I desire to state that Judge Taawell
In deciding this matter gave the prose
cution more advantage than they
would have gotten in any other court
In the land. He permitted, over my ob
jection. Officer Harmes and Dan Pow
ers to testify to hearsay testimony,
and to things which neither officer had
an opportunity to know about or re
fute, for the purpose of giving them
every opportunity to make out their
case. And I want to aay farther that
Judge Taswell acted judiciously and
bonestly In the decision of this matter,
and that hla action la mere commend
able than the action of Chler Slover.
who haa assumed the role of a dictator
regardless of the truth and the evi
dence in this case.

RIVER SURVEY ASSURED
COLUMBIA NAVIGATION TO BE
GREATLY EXTENDED.
Portland Commercial Body Secures
. Co-operation of Both Governments
In Important Undertaking.
Efforta on the part of the Portland
Chamber of Commerce to. secure the
aid of the Canadian government In
clearing from obstructions that part of
the Columbia River and Its tributaries
across the Canada line, has borne fruit
and the Chamber has received a letter
from the Associated Boards of Trade
of Eastern British Columbia announcing-
that the Canadian government has
appropriated J36.000 for a survey of
the river to secure a report on the
feasibility of rendering It navlg;abl.
"Tbls report Is extremely gratifying
to the Chamber of Commerce." .said
Secretary El C. Giltner. yesterday.
"Two years ago we sent a special com
mittee to confer with the British Co
lumbia Boards of Trade and with the
Premier of Canada and hla Cabinet, on
thla subject! and requested their co
operation In the effort to open the
Columbia River for navigation. At that
time the Canadian officials agreed to
glve the matter closest consideration
and the appropriation is a llrect result.
In our opinion, of the efforts of our
committee.
"The committee, which appeared for
the Portland Chamber of Commerce,
was composed of C. F. Swlgert. A. H.
Devers. Unltd Statea Senator Cham
berlain. C. F. Adams and Captain W. P.
Gray. The result of the survey will
be closer co-operation In the Improve
menr of the Columbia River and Its
tributaries between the Canadian gov
ernment and the United States. The
committee at the time of Its visit went
into details showing the work that had
been lone by this country and the ad-
. waiiM srrrne IA both
vaniHKrn " " - "
countries If active co-operaUoa waa
had and the entire river made naviga
ble. The decision of the Canadian gov
ernment to make the preliminary
survey means the eventual clearing
and improvement of the entire Colum
bia River from its headwaters to its
mouth. The benefit to Portland can
not be overestimated, especially In view
of the early completion of the Celilo
and the Panama Canals. It will mean
unimpeded navigation for a distance
of hundreds of miles and the addition
to Portland's trade area of hundreds of
thousands of acres of fertile territory.'

Recipes for Wrinkles

Of all the beauty recipes in my scrap
book, here are two that have always
given complete satisfaction:
Wrinkle Remover One ounce pow

witch haael. Use as a wash lotion- It
brings Instantaneous results.
Face Peeler Pure mercolized wax,
applied at night like cold cream, only
not rubbed in; wash off In the morn

to come off in tiny, almost Invisible
flakes, a little each day, until the fresh

The beautiful rose-tinted complexion
thus obtained Is not to be compared
with one made over with cosmetics. An
ounce of the wax Is sufficient.
