FACING
GRAVE ACCUSATIONS
Edwin Anders Charged by City
Superintendent With Annoy
ing School Girl.
HEARING SET FOR MONDAY
Washington High School History
Head Accused of Three Violations
or Rules and He Issues
Sweeping Denial of All.
Craver charges than those already
Intimated against Edwin Anders, head
of the history department at Washing
ton High School, were filed with the
School Board Saturday by L R. Alder
man, superintendent of the. city school
system, and Chairman M. Q. Munly. of
the Board of Education, has called a
special meeting of the Directors to con
sider them tomorrow afternoon at 4
'clock.
That he annoyed a girl at Washing
ton High and made improper sugges
tions to her Is alleged in the formal
letter to the Board of Education in
which the superintendent asks for the
history instructor's dismissal. Other
charges are that Mr. Anders circulated
an anonymous letter of a scurrilous na
ture and that he was guilty of insub
ordination and failed to co-operate with
teachers and officials of the school
system.
Mr. Aadera Denies Charge.
Mr. Anders received a copy of the
charges from R. H. Thomas, clerk of
the School Board, late yesterday. He
discussed them freely and said they
were all false. There are three dis
tinct counts in the Indictment as drawn
by Superintendent Alderman.
The first charge is that Mr. Anders
circulated a letter sharply attacking
Mr. Alderman and other officials and
principals of the schools. This refers
to the letter that appeared early last
week which was sent to members of
the Parent-Teacher Association and to
prominent citizens of the city.
The second allegation is Insubordin
ation and failure to co-operate with
other teachers. Insubordination Is
charged in the writing of a personal
letter to the superintendent in which
criticism is said to have been made of
Mr. Alderman's methods.
The third count is the statement that
Mr. Anders Insulted a girl at Washing
ton High School and molested her wltb
unworthy suggestions and intentions
to such an extent that she has great
fear of him.
Statements Are Contradictory.
Mr. Anders says he called the girl
referred to by Superintendent Alder
man in his charges on the telephone
yesterday and she denied there is any
truth in the statements made. The
school officials say the girl, whose
name is withheld out of consideration
for her. could have made no such state
ment, for she has said she will tell the
truth and will testify at the hearing
against Mr. Anders.
"All three charges are unfounded."
said Mr. Anders last night. "They are
absolutely untrue and 1 deny them.
"The third charge, that I Insulted a
girl at Washington High School, has
been made up on the spur of the mo
ment to attack my personal character,
ior he knows the other two cannot be
proved."
"The overwhelming evidence in the
case leads me to believe he Is the man
guilty of all three charges." said Su
perintendent Alderman. "I am not try
ing to persecute him in the least and
would be glad to find him innocent, but
do not believe it possible for him to
be cleared in this case.
Hcarlan; May Be Delayed.
"I have been influenced solely by the
desire for the good of the service. Such
reports as he has sent out would dis
organize any service."
Mr. Anders says he may Insist upon
his right to have three days to prepare
his answer to the charges. He says
such a right is given in the session
laws of 1913. He will, however, answer
the summons to appear before the
School Board tomorrow afternoon,
eince he says ha has not been dis-
misatru, uuk iucicij Buorauoi o.uu la
bound to obey any order of the school
authorities. He may likely ask
for three days' time at the Directors'
meeting. He has secured Arthur I.
Moulton as legal counsel to represent
him.
CITY COUNCIL IS SCORED
PE.MSILA CITIZENS RESENT AC
TION OX SEWER PETITION'.
Resolutions Adopted by Abont 500 Per
sona at Mass Meeting. Charging;
Inefficient Administration.
Following the action taken by the
City Comntuision some time ago In re
fusing to make an appropriation for
the opening or Columbia Slough to
make it available for a sewer outlet
from the Peninsula district, resolutions
were adopted by about 500 persons at a
mass meeting at the North Branch Li
brary Saturday night. In which the city
administration was declared Inefficient
and inadequate. It was voted that a
committee of five be appointed to In
vestigate and report ways and means
of securing a more competent and effi
cient administration ot municipal af
fairs. W. M. Killingsworth was made
chairman of this committee and W. T.
Vaughn, chairman of the meeting, was
chosen as a member. The other mem
bers are to be appointed later. v
The report of a special committee was
read and adopted In which the reports
of P. H. Pater, city engineer, and the
fewer engineer, submitted to the Com
mission in connection with the plan
of opening Columbia Slough, were de
clared apparently to have had for their
purpose the defeat of the project. The
report took up various sections of the
two engineers' reports, in which it was
declared misstatements were made.
"The Council, we conclude, did
not seek information easily obtainable
and has not used fair judgment in
dealing with the question," says the
report.
W. T. Vaughn declared the people
of the Peninsula had just begun. He
said that Commissioner Dreck wished
to put in another trunk sewer at an
approximate expense to the Peninsula
people of $!.sno.on.

LIQUOR HELD BIG ISSUE
PARTY LEADERS SAY 1916 FIGHT
WILL BE OVER PROHIBITION.
Senator Clapp, of Minnesota, Latest to
Give Warnlns; Senator Cummins
Avers "Saloons Must Go."
WASHINGTON, March 20. National
eaders of both the dominant political
parties can see little or no chance of
escape from fights to the finish over
the liquor question on the floors of
both Presidential nominating conven
tions in 1916. Powerful factors in the
inner party councils on both sides are
serving notice that the issue must be
faced. Not from temperance agitators
are these warnings coming, but rather
from leading members of the United
States Senate and House of Repre
sentatives, and, what is perhaps more
significant, from members of the
party National committees.
Lnite States Senator Moses E. Clapp,
of Minnesota, recently added his name
to the list of present members ot the
Senate who insist that a clear-cut
statement on the liquor question by the
two dominant parties cannot be avoid
ed. In an open letter Senator Clapp
says:
"If business is good in 1916, prohibi
tion will be -a most important factor
in the 1916 campaign. The question
has become an' economic issue and the
saloon has become generally -recognized
as a menace both by employers
and workers."
Senator Clapp follows the lead of
United States Senator A. B. Cummins,
of Iowa, and makes the fifteenth mem
ber of the Senate recently to serve
such warning on party associates.
Senator Cummins, himself regarded
as a potential progressive Republican
Presidential candidate, takes an un
equivocal personal position and says:
"The saloon must go. soDriety must
be the rule of conduct for the future."
Senator William S. Kenyon shares
the Cummins' view, so that both the
Iowa members of the Senate are out
for action. Senator William E. Borah,
of Idaho, is another Republican Presi
dential possibility who sees little
chance for his party escaping the is
sue.
Senators Thomson, of Kansan, and
SheDDard. of Texas, are two Demo
crats who take a conspicuously lead
ing place in the agitation for prohibi
tion. The advance of prohibitory leg
islation in the South has influenced the
solid Congressional delegations in both
Senate and House from five Southern
States, with the exception of one or
two individuals, to the point where
they have informed party colleagues
they will have to support, wnenever
It is forced to a vote, any and all
measures aimed at the suppression of
the liquor traffic.
In the minds of the party leaders.
the troublesome thing Is not that so
many individual United States Sena
tors publicly are standing for prohibi
tion, but that these members of Con
gress are reflecting the opinions and
desires of their constitutents.
Many of the best-known members of
Congress are discussing the liquor
question In a manner which, indulged
In six years ago. would have threat
ened to drive them from public life.
They now are talking prohibition, con
fident, they say. of the security of tbeir
position. On December 22 last In the
House of Representatives the prohibi
tion resolution received a majority, but
failed to secure the necessary two
third vote.
The states where prohibition Is In
effect or where state-wide prohibition
measures have been passed but are not
yet In operation are Alabama. Arizona,
Arkansas. Colorado. Georgia, Iow.
Idaho. Kansas. Maine. Mississippi. North
Carolina. North Dakota, Oklahoma,
Oregon. Tennessee. Virginia. Washing
ton and West Virginia 18 in all.
The North Carolina Legislature, fol
lowing a court decision, has placed an
absolute embargo upon alcoholic
liquors.
In Pennsylvania the fight is one of
National interest Involving the future
of the Penrose political machine.
AUTO HITS MOTORCYCLIST
Slgfred Larson Injured When He
Gives Way and Then Advances.
Sigfred Larson. 376 Williams avenue,
riding a motorcycle, collided with a big
yellow automobile at Third and Salmon
streets Saturday, and Mr. Larson is now
at St. Vincent's Hospital with a frac
tured leg.
Mr. Larson was riding south on Third
street when the automobile appeared
on Salmon street. Each driver slowed
down for the other to pass and then,
each thinking the other had offered the
right of way, simultaneously attempted
to make use of It with the least pos
sible delay, and started on.
Tile' crash left Mr. Larson with both
bones broken between the ankle and
the knee of the right leg.
The driver of the automobile took
Mr. Larson to a bath house at Fourth
and Washington, whence he was re
moved to the hospital.

Flagship of Atlantic Reserve Fleet
Ordered to Hampton. Roads on
"Xeutrality Tnty"Crew and
Stores Being Assembled.
NEWPORT NEWS, Vsw March 28.
The German converted ernlser Prlns
KItel Frledrich -was still at h,er berth
at midnight tonight.
Invitations to a dinner aboard the
Eltel which had been issued for tomor
row were recalled tonight without ex
planation WASHINGTON. March 28 The bat-
tleshlD Alabama, of the reserve fleet.
was ordered to Hampton Roads tonigni
on "neutrality duty," according to an
announcement from the Navy Depart
ment. The battleship is at the Phila
delphia yard.
Secretary Daniels said it was in
tended to place one large vessel on
guard to support the submarines and
destroyers which have been on duty
since the German commerce destrbyer
Prinz Eitel Friedrich reached Newport
News.
Heavy Ships Required for Duty.
Heavy ships have been employed
In neutrality duty at Boston and New
York, the Secretary said, and it was
thought best to take similar precau
tions at Hampton Roads, as the smaller
vessels would be handicapped In the
event of heavy weather.
The Alabama is the flagship of Rear-
Admiral James M. fieim. corrmander-in-chief
of the Atlantic reserve fleet.
Secretary Daniels .said Admiral Helm
would decide for himseir wneuier or
not to accompany his ship.
Departure Will Be Delayed.
Navy officials said the Alabama prob
ably would not be able to get away
until some time sunaay as it
be necessary not only to round up
the members of her crew who were
absent on shore liberty, but also to
take stores. If the ship needs coal, it
was said, she might not be able to leave
for Hampton roads "before Monday
morning.
The fact that orders were seni iu
the Alabama's commander at a late
hour tonight, however, indicated that
there was some urgency in the matter
not explained by Secretary Daniels.
There were unconfirmed reports here
tonight that Captain Thieriohens of the
Prinz Eltel had maaa. inquiry -oi me
Washington Government as to wnai
protection he might expect within the
three-mile limit should he decide to
attempt to run the gauntlet of enemy
warships said to be awaiting him.
Officials Maintain Silence.
Can tain Thlerlchens is said to have
taken the position that his vessel was
entitled to protection from any moles
tation while within the territorial wat
ers of the United States, and in this
view it is understood Government offi
cials concur.
No officials who could be reached to
night, however, would discus3 the sub
ject, and the only official explanation
of the Alabama's errand that could be
obtained was that given by secretary
Daniels.
There was a little doubt that a time
limit for the making of repairs to the
Eltel had been set by the Government
and that the limit is- close to expira
tion. When the period granted expires.
Commander Thierlchens, of the Eltel,
will be formally notified that he must
either out to sea within 24 hours or
his ship and crew will be Interned for
the war. '
The German captain could appeal tor
time to make further repairs, but this
would be granted, it is thought, only
on a new and unexpected showing as
to the unseaworthiness or tils vessel.
Frye Captain's Words Recalled.
It appeared to be the general opinion
that Commander Thierlchens would not
ask that his ship be interned, but would
wait out his time limit and compel tne
Government to act. Officials recalled
the statement of Captain Kiehne, of the
American ship William P. Frye. sunk
by the Eitel, who declared when he
reached shore from the cruiser that she
would not put to sea again during the
war. He refused to say on what he
based his prediction, but officials be
lieved his lone association with the
Eitel's officers after tho Frye was sunk
qualified him to speak with some au
thority. It was suggested to officials today
that the -presence of numerous British
horse transports at Newport News
might serve to delay the departure of
the Eitel, should her commander deter
mine to attempt to dash to sea past the
patrol of warships said to be maintained
by the allies on tne naroor ana Deyonu
the three-mile limit. Under neutrality
laws, no belligerent warships, such as
the Eltel, may leave port within zt
hours after the departure of an enemy
merchant craft.
Wllbelm to Be Sought Next.
By sailing in and out of the har
bor at frequent intervals, the Brit
ish merchant skippers could delay
the Eitel's dash, if they so desired. It
was thought, however, that no such
maneuver would be attempted, as the
conviction was general that the Eitel
would not put to sea and the allies were
nqt desirous of delaying the time of her
internment.
With the ships' .release from the vigil
off the Virginia Capes, it is reported
search will be made for the Prinz Wit
helm, another German raider, of which
nothing has been heard for many weeks.
Navy and Treasury Confer.
Secretary Daniels and Acting Secre
tary Breckenridge, of the War Depart
ment, conferred today regarding; tne
measures to carry out neutrality laws
in the case of the Eitel as laid down
by the State Department. The Navy
Department has advised with the offi
cials of the Treasury Department,
which, under law. Is responsible for the
internment of the Eltel. if it should
come to that, for her departure from
Newport News after notice.
Mr. Breckenridge said no orders had
been given to the post commanders,
and asserted that even in case of a
naval battle within the three-mile limit.
should the Eitel make the dash, there
would be no firing from the fort with
out express orders from Washington.
Prince Hatzfeidt, counselor or tne
German embassy, visited the State De
partment today to ask if all those
aboard the Prlns Eitel, except the crew.
had been removed.
The embassy understood, the Coun
selor told Counselor Lansing, that some
of the persons to whom the immigra
tion authorities refused permission t
land, remained aboard. Prince Hatz
feldt was Informed that the State De
partment's information was that every
body had left the Prinz Eitel,. inul tid
ing the undesirables, who would be de
ported. MEX ARE SUDDEJTLY CALLED IX

Philadelphia Police Help Assemble
Crews at Navy-yard.
PHILADELPHIA. March 18. The au
thorities of the Philadelphia Navy
Yard tonight notified the superintend
ent of the Philadelphia police to notify
all enlisted men, wherever found, to re
port at the Navy-Yard at S o'clock; Sun
day. The request to the police was
signed by Commander Hinds, of the
battleship Ohio, which is the receiving
ship at the Navy-Yard.
The request of the Navy-Yard was
made an order by the police and was
read to all patrolmen who went on
duty at midnight.
Sailors and marines who were found
on the streets were much surprised
when told of the order by the police
men, but they obeyed instantly, with
the result that every car bound for the
Navy-Yard carried enlisted men as pas
sengers. The Alabama is at present attached
to the reserve fleet and had only a
skeleton crew, hence the order to
gather in all men on shore leave in a
hurry, so that the battleship may sail
with a regulation complement of offi
cers and men.
There was much activity at the yard
tonight in getting the Alabama ready
for sea. She is expected to sail some

ENGINEER PLUM RIPE
SUCCESSOR IS EXPECTED TO
NAMED TOMORROW.
Race Thought to Be Narrowed Down
to Em I. Cantlne and Herbert'
Nunn, Both of Portland.
A successor to Major Bowlby. State
Highway Engineer, probably will be
named by the Highway Commission at
Salem today.
Although there are many applicants
in the field, it is understood that the
race has narrowed down toE. L Can
tine and Herbert Nunn, both of Port
land, with Mr. Cantine said to have a
strong lead. It would not be surpris
ing for him to receive the appoint
ment. It is reasonably certain that the ap
pointee of the Commission will con
tinue in office after the new law con
solidating the highway department
with the State Engineering Depart
ment goes into effect. Under t,his law
the appointing power is in the hands
of the Governor alone, while at present
the entire Commission, consisting of
the Governor, Treasurer and Secretary
of State, make the appointment.
Members of the Oregon Society of
Engineers have protested to the Com
mission against appointment of any
person for Highway Commissioner who
has not been Identified with Oregon
affairs. This is supposed to apply par
ticularly to Mr. Nunn, who has been
In the state only since last September.
The following is a copy of a commu
nication on this subject sent tto the
Commission last week:
Noting from press reports that the ap
oolntment of a Hisrhway Engineer who has
not been identified with Oreg-on affairs Is
being- considered, we desire to nree upon

Individual, but feel that the peculiar and
exacting conditions relative to construction
work and materials in this stats demand
an engineer familiar with them.
We also wish to suggest that tnis position
demands business acumen and not mere
technical ability, that an engineering man
acer will fill the position better than one

way construction.
TINY WITNESS WINS JURY
Two-Year-Old Baby Toddles to Chair
and Verdict for Mother Results.
EBENBBURG, PaT March 20. A 2-year-old
boy, who climbed into the
witness chair and gave bis mother's
attorney the .opportunity to call the
Jury's attention to the facial resem
blance between the child and the
father, who denied its parentage, won
a suit for the mother.
Charles F. Schnabel, a Johnstown
merchant, sued his wife for divorce, al
leging desertion and chose a jury trial
instead of the usual master. He de
clared the 2-year-old son of the pretty
defendant was not his own child. The
wife showed Schnabel had sent her to
her mother's home shortly after their
marriage and refused to support her.
While Tillman K. Saylor. attorney
for the defense, was arguing the case,
the baby toddled to the witness chair
and climbed into it. Saylor untied the
child's hood and ordered Schnabel to
turn his face toward the Jury.
The resemblance was so close that
the Jury accepted the woman's version
and In 12 minutes returned a verdict,
refusing Schnabel a divorce.' . ,

"The man who has saved or is sav

Get down to brass tacks with yourself and analyze your
own situation. Are you building toward future and
permanent success? Saving for saving alone is worthy
of everyone's ideal but mere SAVING will not bring in
dependence to you. Your savings will not produce
sufficient returns unless invested where original profits
are possible. The Oregon Home Builders permits the in

pooling money with many others and sharing equitably
in such operations as Home Building, Designing, Plan
Making, Fire Insurance, Rental Collections and Realty
Dealings which is only possible by cumulative capital. It
is safe and it is profitable. Do you realize what tremendous
successes institutions of this kind have made in other
parts of the country? Investigate in a business-like

ULTIMATE PEACE SEEN
MRS. GILMAW, SUFFRAGIST, THINKS
WAR WILL LEAD TO GOOD.
When Enlightenment and Civilisation
Grow, She Declares, World WU1
Enroll Under One Federation.
"We have become so brutalized in
th. last six months that this war does
not assume sucn terrible aspects as it
did when It was first begun," said Mrs.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, BUffraglst,
lecturer and philosopher. In a lecture,
"Wilt and the World Hope," given un
der the auspices of the Civic League in
th auditorium of the Young Mens
Christian Association Saturday night.
"While there la a universal condem
nation of the war, most of us feel that
this is an eruption which might have
been avoided but must now be fought
to the finish," she declared.
Mrs. Oilman, half humorously, com
pared the present situation to the al
legory of the cabbages and the oranges.
The story concerned a cabbage garden
grown for generations by one family,
in which of a sudden sprang up orange
trees. The 4rees multiplied until they
became big and glorious, completely
overshadowing the cabbages. Mrs. Gil
man declared that the war is the cab
bages which must, when the orange
trees of enlightenment and civilization
grow to sufficient proportions, become
overshadowed and ultimately extermln-
atMrs Gilman says that there are three
hopes' for the country after the war
is ended. They are greater strength for
the labor movement, advanced feminism
and forcing by 100 years federation of
the world.
It Is her hope, her dream, her ideal
to see the world federated under one
great emblem of peace.
Mrs. Gilman will speak again in the
Auditorium Tuesday night on the sub
ject "Our Brains and What Ails Them."
She will entertain at a reception given
at the home of Mrs. Alva Lee Steph

MAIL SERVICE TO BE RESUMED
Americans Report Foreigners Well
Treated by New Government.
WASHINGTON. March 28. State
Bepartment advices today were that
the Villa-Zapata government was
planning the re-establishment imme
diately of mail service between Mexico
City and Pledras Negras. Train serv
ice between the latter town and Mon

The State Department summary to
day says In part:
"A mail report dated March 23 from
Pledras Negras states that Americans
and other foreigners are being shown
every courtesy. It is said that wher
ever a wrong has been done by the new
faction speedy redress has been given.
It is stated that better conditions are
expected in the district after the new
party has had time to settle down and
make appointments to the many civil
offices.

IS YOUR DAUGHTER PALE?
Does she Inherit a delicate (organiza
tion from you? The anemia of young
girls may be inherited or it may be
caused by bad air, lack of proper food.
Insufficient out-of-door exercise, hasty
and irregular eating and not enough
rest and sleep.
It comes on grsduslly, beginning
with languor, indisposition to mental
or bodily exertion. Irritability and a
feeling of fatigue. Later comes palpi
tation of the heart and headache. In a
majority of cases constipation is pres
ent. Often the patient craves unusual
things to eat, such as starch or chalk.
There may be no loss of flesh but the
complexion takes on a greenish-yellow
pallor.
There Is no need to worry In a case
of this kind. The treatment is eay
and simple. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
nou-slcohollo and free from any harm
ful drug, are Just the tonic to remedy
this condition. Improvement begins
with the first dose. As the blond Is
made rich and red the peculiar pallor
leaves the face, strength and activity
gradually return and If the treatment
Is Continued until the last symptom
disappears the danger of relapse Is
slight.
A booklet, "Building Up the Blood"
which tells all about this treatment,
will be sent free on request by the Dr.
Williams Medicine Co., Schenectsdy, N.
Y. All druggists sell Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills.
