THE MORNING OREGOXIAN. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1914, 9 MILWAUKEE MEN IN CITY ENTERTAINED Visitors Find Band and Rose Deluge to Welcome Them Upon Arrival. LUNCHEON IS FEATURE Bfanufactarers Tak Charge of Vlslt- wrs and Entertain at "Made-in Oregon" Banquet, "Where Har mony Speeches Are Given. Milwaukee visited Portland yester day; and Milwaukee left Portland after a day's entertainment here, declaring that only loyalty to Itself prevented It from declaring Portland the foremost city In the world. Milwaukee's visit was made in the form of a tralnload of millionaire busi ness men. who are traveling- through the Northwest by special, on the 14th annual merchants' trade excursion, un der the auspices of the Manufacturers' Association. Welcomed at Vancouver by R. W. Raymond, as emissary from the Port land Manufacturers' Association, the Milwaukee men came on Into Portland yesterday morning to be met with a deluge of roses and to find themselves hurried into the midst of the opening Rose Festival entertainment. Band Welcomes Delegation. They were the guests of the Commer cial Club, the Manufacturers' Associa tion of Portland and the Royal Rosar lans. William McMurray was chairman of the Rosarlan reception committee. The Rosarlan band played "Hail the Conquering Hero" marching down from the Union Depot, and escorted the Mil waukee men to the Alder-street dock, where they went aboard the Bailey Gatzert, the 6hip of the Festival Queen. From the boat, after the landing of the Queen, they were taken in automo biles to the stand at Fourteenth and Morrison to witness the coronation, and shortly after they rode to the Festival Center at Sixth and Yamhill to witness Its dedication. The Portland Manufacturers' Associa tion was host to the visitors at lunch eon, offering a menu of "made-in-Ore-gon" dainties, principal among which were the great planked salmon sent up for the occasion by the Astoria Manu facturers' Association. President D. M. Dunne, of the Port land Association, was toastmaster at the luncheon, and addresses were given expressive of the felicity of feeling be tween the Portland business men and those from Milwaukee. A. C. Churchill represented the Mayor in his absence, and' Mayor Badln, of Milwaukee, re sponded to his address of welcome. President H. D. Ramsdell spoke for the Commercial Club and F. W. Mulkey for the Chamber of Commerce. Other speakers were F. W. Rogers, president of the Milwaukee Manufacturers' Asso ciation, and William George Bruce, sec retary, and J. F. Carroll, of Portland. Auditorium Forms Theme. Mr. Bruce attracted considerable in terest by giving some advice on the municipal auditorium which Portland is some time to build. He described the big auditorium at Milwaukee . and pointed it out as' the only auditorium in the United States that is not only self-supporting but a money-maker. "Do not build an auditorium to trap National political conventions," he said. "Build an auditorium rather with nu merous halls capable of accommodat ing lesser gatherings. H. P. CoHln was chairman of the com mittee from the Commercial Club which took part in the entertainment of the visitors, and gave a short address when the guests came to the Commercial Club, welcoming them to Portland. The afternoon was spent in automo bile trips to points of interest in and about the city, and in the evening the Milwaukee men were guests of the Commercial Club at a dinner. The Easterners left Portland on their special at 11:30 in the night, and will proceed by way of Salt Lake City back to Milwaukee. G. A. Bading, Mayor of Milwaukee, heads the party of visitors.

"I do not think that Portland yet knows or appreciates what wonderful natural advantages she has," said Fred erick W. Rogers, president of the Man ufacturers' Association of Milwaukee, In a speech at the banquet last night tendered to the visiting Milwaukee business men by the Portland Commer cial Club. "I touch upon one thing your beau tiful drives. I have been in Italy and have traveled in countries famous for their beautiful scenic drives, but today I traveled with you over those in the vicinity of Portland that can be made to equal the famous roadways of the French Riviera. You have the natural scenery of the most famous old-world drives beaten to death and you don't seem to realize it yet. Improve what you have and you will soon make Port land famed for a city having the most beautiful drives In the known world. "We have only touched the high spots' In this excursion of ours," he said in conclusion, "and much of its memories will be as a dream to us when we have reached Milwaukee once more, but in this dream the bright spot in our minds and the best city and best surroundings for a city that we have seen will be Portland." Mayor Badin, of Milwaukee, was the first speaker from the visiting party on the evening's programme, respond ing to an address of welcome from Edgar B. Piper, in behalf of the Com mercial Club. In the adress of wel come the tendencies of both Oregon and Wisconsin to lead in new plans of legislation was touched upon.

COMMITTEES WANT ROSES Urgent Call Issued to Citizens for Donations for Visitors. Demands for roses are being sent out by innumerable organizations in Portland.

Royal Rosarlans especially are In need of roses for distribution among the visitors who come itn today and tomorrow, and have asked that per sons who are willing to assist either bring or send their donations to head quarters as soon as possible.

TAXPAYERS OPPOSE TEXT BOOK BURDEN Private School Benefit From Public Assessment Gets Strong Protest. LAW DECLARED MUDDLED Lack of Judicial Interpretation Is Likely to Cause Trouble to Dis trict, If Measure Is Carried, Board Members Think. A strong sentiment has developed among taxpayers during the past few days against the adoption of the free textbook law at the school election next Monday. In case the measure carries the school district will probably have to purchase books for the private as well as the public schools. It Is held by the present members of the School Board that this will place an unjust burden upon the taxpayers of the dis trict and that the loaning of the same books year after year would have un sanitary aspects that might prove seri ous. The 1913 school law is so compli cated on this point that there is some difference of opinion as to how it will work out In practice since no court has ever interpreted It. But lOO Names Needed. Under section 235 of the school laws it requires the signatures of only 100 taxpayers in a district of the first class to place any question on the bal lot. "If the law passes it shall be the duty of the School Board to purchase at the expense of the district all or the textbooks required for the use of all the pupils attending school In such school district." reads the general statute. "Such textbooks shall be loaned free of charge to the pupils of all schools in the district using regularly the textbooks adopted by the Oregon Text book Commission, and except in dis tricts of the first class, following the state's course of study. "Said district shall raise and appro priate annually, in the same manner as other school money shall be raised and appropriated in such district, an amount sufficient to purchase text books needed for all the students who attend school in said district." The law specifically prescribes that the Board shall have the care and cus tody of the books. Private Schools Are Included. "Apparently the law reads that the district must provide all public school children and all of the pupils in the elementary grades of the private schools with books," said R. L. Sabin, chairman of the School Board, yester day. The petition placing the question on the ballot at the coming election was presented by residents in the Wood lawn district, who previously petitioned the Board, unsuccessfully, for the es tablishment of a clearing-house on school books. The schools in the Portland district do not use all of the books prescribed by the Oregon Textbook Commission, although those which it uses on ita own initiative are in many cases Identical with the state selections. Private schools would be at liberty at any time, it is held, to adopt the state selection and demand that it be furnished with books free of charge in any and all courses that it may elect. "Principally for sanitary reasons I think it would be a grave mistake to pass the free-textbook law," said M. G. Munly, a member of the School Board, yesterday. "There Is no way of disinfecting books. In the case of an epidemic of skin disease or any other germ disease there would be no way of checking it. Every physician we have consulted on this matter has said it would be un safe apd unsanitary to use the same books year after year. "Unless the truth about this pro posed law is brought clearly and fully before the people, .1 am much afraid that the law will pass at the Monday election. Many people are in the habit of voting for anything that looks as though it will give them something for nothing. They will do that and at the same time howl about the high taxes." Dr. Semmer Oppesea Measure. "I shall vote against the proposed law," said Dr. E. A. Sommer, a board member, yesterday. "It is not framed as it should be. If free textbooks are to be introduced I think we should go about the matter gradually. Why not allow the district to purchase some of the more costly books first and see how the proposition works out? It Is prac tically impossible to sterilize books." i H. B. Miller, one of the three candi dates for school directors, went on record yesterday as opposed to the proposed law. "I am distinctly opposed to the law requiring the public to furnish text books for any parochial or private school," he said. "It does not seem right to me that the public should have to buy books for use In schools that are not under the control of the public school boards." COLORADO SOCIETY ELECTS Mrs. Shad O. Krantz Chosen Presi dent at Sleeting of Organization. The Colorado Society met In the Library for its annual election of of ficers Monday night. Mrs. Shad O. Krantz was chosen pres ident and Mrs. L.

Board Favors Compensation Bill. ENEMIES OF IT DENOUNCED Resolution Declares Friends of Li ability Companies Misrepresent , Facts In Document Sent Out in Pamphlet Form. At a special meeting: of the board of directors of the Manufacturers' Asso ciation of Oregon, held Monday to de clare the association's attitude toward the workingrmen's compensation act, the following: resolution was unanimously adopted: "We deplore the desperate straits to which friends of liability insurance companies in the State of Oregon have been placed which compel them to send out in pamphlet form a certain docu ment purporting: to. be the attitude of a considerable portion of the Manufac turers' Association toward the compen sation law of Oregon. Time and space do not permit of an adequate refuta tion of this pamphlet. It Is sufficient to say that the preamble to the alleged report is both misleading' and untruth ful, and the supposed facts produced in the report itself are neither accurate nor enlightening:. In a majority of the states in which this report states that compensation is an exclusive remedy and with which a contrast is drawn with the Oregon law, to the detriment of the latter, at least one or more of the conditions under which suit may be entered in Oregon obtain. Method Is De no ii nerd. "The Manufacturers' Association of Oregon objects strongly not only to the report itself, but the method taken to place before the public a document ab solutely misleading as to the facts gathered and the attitude taken to ward the Oregon compensation law of the members of its board of directors. "We believe that, as a general prin ciple, workingmen's compensation laws are far superior to any liability laws. Workingmen's compensation legislation has come to stay. To stand in the way of equitable laws is worse than folly. Humane as well as economic considera tions demand the early adoption of workmen's compensation laws in every state of the Union. Every law tending to cement closer together in common interest capital and labor should re ceive the hearty support of every em ployer. Compensation, as against lia bility laws. Is one of the greatest har monizers and promoters of industrial peace. No state which has adopted compensation law will for one moment consider going back to liability. "We believe that a broader attitude should be adopted toward workingmen's compensation, to-wit: That of the greatest good to the greatest number. Those who have advocated the manu facturers of Oregon staying out from the operation of the compensation law have but one argument to advance, namely, that they believe it would be cheaper for the employer. No one ques tions but that compensation is far bet ter for an injured workingman. We take our stand unqualifiedly for com pensation as being the . greatest good to the greatest number. Scheme la Charged. "We believe there are minor changes that may be made in the Oregon law to its ultimate Improvement, but we believe them to be inconsequential in comparison with the general principle of state compensation. The compensa tion law of this state or any other state cannot be a complete success unless the great majority of the employers come under its provisions. We believe that the present effort of the agents of lia bility companies to keep Oregon em ployers of labor from coming under the provisions of the law is so as, if pos sible, to force the rate of insurance, under this provision, to a higher rate than that which is charged by the lia bility companies. "We believe that the rate of insur ance which the manufacturer will ulti mately pay under the Oregon law will be lower than that offered by any lia bility company. The experience of other states shows that the administra tion of the law costs from 7 hi to 10 per cent of the premiums. The com mission paid to the Insurance agent alone averages twice this amount, to say nothing of the overhead office ex pense and the dividends paid to the stockholders in liability companies. "It is significant that no state which has had a workingmen's compensation law and state insurance under that law has amended that law so as to in troduce liability Insurance along with the state insurance fund, and it is still further worthy of particular notice that the two states which have had workingmen's compensation for prac tically the longest period, after trying liability companies in connection with their compensation law, have made the state fund the exclusive method. Liability Insurance Higher. "The premiums paid by the employer In the states where the liability com panies do the Insuring have been uni formly higher than where the state in surance is the exclusive method. Against Ohio, for instance, with state insurance, for every dollar paid in premiums in the representative employments, those in Michigan, where the insurance is largely written in liability companies, have paid $3.28. and in Wisconsin, where there is no state insurance, they have paid $3.70, showing that the state fund method of insurance is by far the cheaper to the employer. In Massa chusetts, where they have no state fund and the Insuring is done through the liability companies, the worklngmen have received on the average of $18.60 each for their injuries, while for these same injuries the casualty companies received an average of $25.64. Whereas in Washington, under a state fund, the injured workmen iave received $78. The rate of insurance in the State of Washington has been lower than in the State of Massachusetts, showing that the state fund is far better both for the employer and the employe. "We believe the state has no moral right to introduce between its sover eignty and its distress any private agency to make money out of distress. "Lastly, by an accurate poll of the "board of directors of the 12 members of the Manufacturers Association, who have devoted many hours to the in vestigation and discussion of this sub ject, we find that 11 out of the 12 mem bers have already decided to come un der the provisions of the law. and one only ts undecided as to what he will do. "We believe that, except in rare in stances and under peculiar conditions, it will not only be to the advantage but that it is the duty of the manufacturers of Oregon to lend their support to the law, which, we believe, will work for the Industrial prosperity of employer and employe alike."
