Our organizations are stronger in the faith than ever and hail your return to our fightin? forces." The cablegram was signed by Wil liam Flinn, A. J. Beveridge and Jasper Schenk, of Iowa. George W. Perkins, of New York, re peated former assertions that an amalgamation of the Progressives with the Republicans was not to be con sidered a possibility.

The statement is the result of an in terview published in a Portland news paper. The part Mr. West takes um brage at charges that he, last Fall, en couraged street speakers who were -violating the law. Replying to Governor West's reported use of "liar" in connection with a con troversy arising over the executive's efforts Tuesday night to have a curs ing automobilist arrested. Chief of Police Clark smiled and asked: "Is it possible that a Governor would make such a statement? I have not the pleasure of a personal acquaint ance with Governor West, but from what I have heard of him. I am in clined to the belief that he has been the victim of a misquotation. If not that, it must be that there is some other and equally plausible explana tion, for. in my lung career as a pub lic officer, I have never known of a Governor descending to such depths as this, especially over trifles."
