In that delightful film production from William J. Locke's play. "The .Morals of Marcus, Miss Marie Ioro. one of the most charming of Charles 'Frohman's stars, scores a triumph that is realized by all who have seen her in the five-part photoplay, which will be at the Peoples Theater till Saturday night. The photo-drama itself has been evolved from a charming stage play into one of the most entertaining pic ture plays ever screened. From start to finish Miss Doro demonstrates that she is more than a mistress of every scene. She has the daintiest humor and an emotional power which hangs on tendrils of heart beats. The Pathe Weekly, with its war pic tures, brings a stern air of realism to the programme. The popular motion-picture actress.

BUSINESS LAWS SCORED Tendency for Regulation Is to Cru cify Industries, Hears Ad Club. The tendency in our legislation to regulate business in Oregon is to cru cify our own industries." declared C. C Chapman in his address to the Ad Club at the Multnomah Hotel yesterday, dis cussing the pending legislation at Salem. He pointed out as examples the pro posed law providing that districts may tax themselves for publicly-owned sys tems of communication or may bond up to 15 per cent of the assessed val uation of property to establish such enterprises. This he declares penalizes the privately-owned industry. "Our prohibition law is so drastic that It cannot be fixed." he said. "It gives a person unlimited opportunity to obtain beer from outside the state If he desires, but our own taxpaying brewery cannot manufacture to sell even outside the boundaries of the state and the taxes on its property and equipment, you may be sure, go on Just the same year after year." The case of the United States against the Southern Oregon Company for the forfeiture of 97.000 acres of Southern Oiegon timber lands valued at approx imately $2,500,000, will be argued to day before Judge W'olverton in the United States District Court. C. J. Smyth, special assistant to the Attor ney-General, will represent the Gov. ernment and John Gearln, of the firm of Dolph, Mallory, Simon & Gearin, will appear for the defense. The cast was started In December, 1910. The property involved is known as the Coos Bay wagon road lands, for which the Coos Bay wagon Road Com pany built a road from Coos Bay to Roseburg. In accepting the land the Government alleges that the original owners agreed to sell the land to set tlers n parcels less than 160 acres at the price of $2.60, but that it did not fulfill the provisions of the contract.

T TS HtfiiiiiBin I IIM) liniBBHi 1 BIIBIB wmmm 1 Msmmm MM m mm BIG SWINDLE ALLEGED MORRIS MEDOFSKY DECLARES PAL. ESTIXE RELIEF IS "GRAFT." Agent for Fond Opens Store and Is Said to Be Selling Goods De manding "Donation" Receipts. Morris Medofsky, corresponding sec retary of the American Consulate at Jaffa, Palestine, declares the disposi tion of the American relief donations is not all that it should be. Mr. Medofsky is a former resident of Portland and his family has resided here since 1902. In a letter to his brother he says: "Dr. Kuppin is president of the fund here. He has opened up three stores in Jaffa under the name of the Ameri can relief fund. Any one wishing to purchase there must sign a little book that a donation has been received, but instead of a donation the poor people are robbed. The only difference be tween these two stores and others is that they accept currency, while others only take gold.- "But do you think that is helping the poor, the hundreds of poor families that are starving and going insane from want of food and shelter?. Do you think the American relief fund is help ing the poor when they are charged 23 cents for flour that sells for 17 cents? And yet hundreds of thou sands of dollars are constantly arriv ing for 'the assistance of' Hebrews in distress In Palestine.' It is a disgrace and one of the biggest grafts that was ever pulled off. "About two weeks ago, when it was learned that the Tennessee was en route ht.e with a great sum of money tor the assistance of the Jews, the Americans held a meeting and protest ed in writing against this American relief committee." CANNERY DELEGATE TO GO Welfare Commission Slember to Visit . California for Uniform Laws. The Oregon Industrial Welfare Com mission, has decided to send one of its members to California next month to confer with the commission of that state to worn out some method for the uniform regulation in the two states of employment in the fruit can ning business. Mrs. Mary Edson, a member of the California commission, visited Portland the past week on the same mission. The desire of the commission is to se cure such uniformity that the cannery- men in either state will not be placed at a disadvantage by differences in legislation regulating their activities. A- committee representing canners. growers and the members of the com mission has forwarded to the Senate committee in Salem recommendations on the proposed welfare act to- allow overtime in those lines. This is de signed to provide for the emergencies that arise in the canning industry when overtime Is necessary. BISHOP'S FATHER DIES ORBGO.V PRELATE LEAVES FOR XEW HAMPSHIRE. W. H. Hall, of Auburn, Me.,, who is 71 years old, is teething, three new teeth hsvinff recwtly made their appearance. ? . Despite Sorrow Head of Episcopal Church Attends Reception to, Frerent Disappointment. Bishop Sumner's father, C. D. Sum ner, died yesterday at his home in Manchester, N. H., and the bishop left last night over the Great Northern for his former home, where he will attend the burial services and will join his aged mother in her hour of sorrow. Word of the death of the bishop's father reached Portland shortly after 12 o'clock yesterday, and cast a gloom on all to whom the announcement was made. Bishop Sumner has been the guest of Dr. and Mrs. A. A. Morrison since his arrival In Portland a week ago, and already he has made many warm friends in this city. All plans for entertainment in his honor have been indefinitely postponed. The men's banquet that was arranged at the Hotel Multnomah will be held, probably shortly after Easter. It is thought by Dr. Morrison that .the bishop will not be able to take up his work and fill engagements for about three weeks. On the day of his arrival in Port land, Bishop Sumner mentioned that his mother bad attended his consecra tion, adding much to his pleasure on that occasion, but had regretted that his father, who had been frail for some ttme, had not been strong enough to make the trip to Chicago. There is a possibility that Mrs. Sumner may ac company her son on his return to the West, but no plana have yet been made. A large reception had been arranged yesterday by the Women's Auxiliary of the Episcopal churches, and as the guest knew nothing of the great grief that had come upon their leader, they assembled in hundreds at Trinity parish house. 'Bishop Sumner would not dls appoint his people and In spite of his own sorrrow, went with Dr. ml Mr.. Morrison to meet thonc who hid railed in his honor. Jilncjs May llun In HoIm'.
