NEW COMMITTEES PLAN .Total Number In Washington Sen ate Will Be 40. OL.YMPIA, Wash., Dec 10. (Special.) Three new committees on industrial Insurance, public utilities and rural credits and agricultural co-operation will be named for the State Senate at the coming session of the Washington Legislature, Lieutenant-Governor Hart announced today, bringing the tota number to 4. Important new lesrlsla tlon on each of the subjects named is to be considered, the "first aid" bill, which will go to the industrial insur ance commission, being especially im portant. Lieutenant-Governor Hart said he had not given serious consideration to the plan of naming a "repealing com mittee," proposed for the lower house, to clear the statute books of obsolete and freak laws. NAVY. AVOIDS OFFENSE Strength of Warring Nations Will Not Be Published. WASHINGTON, reo. 10. In order that the United States may observe atrict neutrality in the European war, the Navy Department will not issue this month the usual comparative state ment of the warship tonnage of the prtnolpal naval powers of the world, hitherto Issued in December and July of each year. Instead of attemptlnsT to put out a statement corrected to date, the Intelligence officers of the department today reissued the state ment of last July, when all of the nations at war were pursuing the paths of peace. While the Issuance, by the United States of a statement setting; forth the naval Strength of the warring nations might not be Improper In itself, it was pointed out that the changes wrought In the various navies by destruction of vessels on the one hand and purchase and completion of craft, on the other, would make it quite impossible to com pile the necessary data. The July statement, rel-sued today, shows Great Britain at the head of the list with a completed tonnage of 2, 167,850, while the other nations in the order of their tonnage are Germany. United States. France, Japan, Italy. Russia and Austria-Hungary. This statement shows that, with the completion of vessels built and build ing July 1, the order would oe, oreai Britain. Germany, France, united States. Japan, Russia. Italy, Austrfa- Hungary. This latter calculation woma place the United States fourth Instead of third among the world naval powers.

' DRAFT RIGID FOR PROHIBITION LAW Reputable Physicians and Druggists Against Permit ting Sales on Prescription. MOVE BY WETS EXPECTED Formation of Whltman-Bonrne Or ganization In Process to Same National-Ticket In 1916 and Country-Wide Work Flan. Neither a doctor nor a druggist will be permitted to sell liquor in" Oregon under provisions of the prohibition bill now being drafted by the special com mittee of attorneys appointed recently by the Committee of One Hundred for that purpose. This restriction has made the prohi- tlon law In other states effective, and it Is declared by the "dry" Interests in Oregon that it must be preserved In the Oregon measure. The legitimate druggists and the legitimate doctors of the state are In sisting on this provision. On the other hand. It is understood that unscrupulous saloonkeepers who would become druggists as soon as the prohibition law becomes effective are planning to incorporate in the proposed measure a clause that will permit drug stores to sell liquor "on prescription,' legitimate druggists point out tnat these "prescription" drugstores will bring disrepute upon their entire pro fession. Legitimate doctors declare that shyster physicians will set up in busi ness for the mere purpose of writing whisky prescriptions, thereby dis crediting their profession. Although the amendment adopted by the people at the recent election con tained a provision that would permit the sale of alcoholic liquors "for medi cinal purposes" modern physicians de clare that whisky Is not needed as a medicine and that no legitimate pre scription for whisky ever was written. Members of the committee of one Hundred will insist that the clause prohibiting the sale of liquor on pre scription must be preserved in the bill. They point out that this provision has made the operation of prohibtion lews In other states successful and that its absence has made a farce of prohibi tion in other states. Further provision In the bill now under preparation will make it unlaw ful for a club or association to dis pense liquor to its own members, even though no money Is exchanged In the transaction Such organizations as the Commercial Club, Elks Club, Press Club, University Club, Arlington Club and others in Portland will be forced to abolish their bars under the terms of this clause. Landlords also will be held respon sible for the fines and costs assessed againt liquor dealers in case they knowingly permit the Illegal sale of liquor on the premises. Leases are to be forfeited when the tenant uses the property thus unlawfully. The committee in charge of the bill proposes to make the penalties com paratively light. Fines and Jail impris onment alone will be prescribed. Viola tion of the liquor law will not be made a penitentiary offense. It is pointed out that it would be almost impossible to get a jury to convict If trhe pen alty was made severe. It is apparent that the "wet Interests will endeavor to nullify the effects of the prohibition amendment either by trying to have the "teeth" pulled out of the measure or by making it so stringent that it will become farcical. A "Whitman-Bourne Club" is In the process of formation In Portland for the purpose of booming Governor-elect Charles S. Whitman, of New York, for the Republican nomination for Presi dent in 1916 and Jonathan Bourne, Jr., of Portland, for Vice-President. It is probable that an informal meet ing will be held within the next few days, when leaders in the movement will outline plans for a permanent or ganization. It is proposed to organize similar clubs in every state in the Union and to persist in the movement until it results in the nomination and election of the principals. "' The recent election of Mr. Whitman In the face of overwhelming odds as Governor of New York has established him as a figure of National importance. He has the geographical position to give him strategical advantage in the convention. He is known as a man of progressive ideas and Is not allied with any particular wing or faction in his home state. The nomination of ex-Senator Bourne, It is pointed out, would satisfy the de mands of the West for a place on the ticket, and would serve adequately to balance the ticket between the East and West. 4 PORTLAND ABSIKAtTS Of TITLE. rauMPT SEKVlCJi at reasonable price. -aciricTiue si Trust Co., 3 CO. of Com.

SEVERAL CHANGES ASKED Common-User Privileges and Spur Trackage Provisions Will Read Differently and South Portland Residents Make Plea. Questions brought forth by the Pub lic Dock Commission regarding the un certainty of the wording of some of the provisions of a franchise sought by the United Railways Company for its lines on Front Btreet and in North and South Portland, caused the City Commission and the Dock Commission at a Joint session yesterday to decide to amend the franchise as It has been prepared and published and to send It up for readvertisement. The action will cause a delay in the final grant, ing of the franchise. The company, in face of the revoca tion of its franchise for its line to Ldnnton by the County Commissioners, has agreed to give up its present fran chise within the city and accept a new franchise with the tracks eliminated from Stark street. The franchise on this basis was adopted by the City Commision and sent up for advertising. It developed then that the Dock Commission under the provisions of the city charter has to approve the franchise before it can be granted. The Dock Commission found some objections. Common'l'Mr Clause Chsnred. The first of these is the wording of a provision granting common-user rights on Front street. It was felt by the Dock Commission that there might be some question about the ability of the city to use the tracks for a munici pal belt line if one should be con structed. It was decided at yesterday's conference to amend this so as to leave no question on the subject. The second objection was In regard to the wording of a provision fot switches and turnouts on Front street north of Jefferson street. It was de cided to amend this provision so that there will be no question as to the right of the city to regulate the con struction of these tracks. The third question came up regard ing the switching charges- to be made along the line.- It was contended that under the wording of the switching charge provision ot the proposed fran chise the company might be able to double its present rates. A delegation of manufacturers, of South Portland, represented by Thomas MsCusker, at torney, was on hand to be heard on this question. The manufacturers asked that the rate for switching south of Wood street be fixed so there could be no greater charge than $S for de livering and removinr a car from an industrial track. Switching; Charge Discussed. . The rate for switching north of Wood street Is ' 12.50 for each car. There was lengthy discussion at the meeting as to the proper rate, some con tending that there should be no dif ference between rates north and south of Wood street, nrs contending that the rate should be $5 north of Wood f street and $10 south of that street. t-Tstill others maintaining that the rate! SI should be J2.60 nort.. of Wood street! organization, Mr. Parsons was a mem j and Ss south of that street. Tbe ques-1 ber of the Ancient Order of United BUSINESS DIRECTORY DANCING.

Mr. Yeon Cites Comparative Returns as Biggest Argument at Banquet, Honurlsc Association, The blessings or good roads were heralded by prominent speakers at a dinner given by the Portland Commer cial Club last night in honor of 112 County Judges and Commissioners of the State of Oregon. Perhaps the keynote speech was de livered by Koadmaster John B. Yeon. He established the economic returns which well-built highways bring any community. When Jldgar B. Piper, chairman of the club reception com mittee and toastmaster, in introducing Mr. Yeon praised him for the unselfish service in building Multnomah County roads and expressed the wish and be lief that his services are to be con tinued, . the roadmaster was greeted with an ovation. -- "The best way to Bho-wthe value of good roads Is to show-their returns," said Mr. Yeon. '-.n area' of two by seven miles in the Puyallup Valley, Washington, last year marketed 91. 250,000 worth of berries, the freight on them being $300,000. Land In that valley which sells for $1000 and $1500 an acre is no better than the $100 and $125 Oregon land. "The same is true of the White River Valley. Last .year the milk industry brought that region $2,500,000 in the shipment of dairy products. There are 30,000 cows in that territor". By vir ture of the roads, the milk is handled direct to the consumer for three-fourths of a cent a gallon, -herear this hauling formerly cost 1 cents." S. Benson, In answering the subject. "The Road Tells the Story," urged the passage - of a law eliminating auto trucks in excess of tenton capacity from the h'ghways. Judge Edwin C. Judd, of Clatsop County, who yesterday was elected president of the Judges' and Commis sioners' Association, said that roads nueht to be made good enough to nan die whatever demands were to be made unon them ."During the last two years Oregon has done more than any other state towards good road building," declared Frank Terrace, of Orilla, wash. F7.r Meeker, the famous pioneer, ad vocated the construction of a National highwa. along the route of the Ore gon Trail. In prefacing his Illustrated lecture on the "Columbia nignway, ctamuei Hill, president of the International Good Roads Association, advocated right grades, right curves and proper .drainage. On the backs of the menu cards was the following inscription: "The road tells the story. A bad road tells the story of money wasted. The good road built to las: tells the story of money well Invested. The road tells the' story." 30 0. Ill After Church Slipper. BATAVIA. N. - T.. Dec 10.
