Campaigner Also Says Word for Mr.
McArthnr and Thinks Oregon,
for Its Own Sake, Should
Return" III111 to Congress.
"Although we are strictly nonparti
san, at the same time the members of
the Woman's party, if they are going
to make their votes count, will vote
for Mr. Hugrhes." declared Mrs. Will
iam Kent, wife of Representative Kent,
of California, in a spirited address be
fore the Lincoln Republican Club, in
Library Hall, last night.
Airs. Kent's husband is chairman of
a nonpartisan Woodrow Wilson com
mittee in his state. His wife explained
that she, however, has a "New Eng
land conscience" that compels her to
campaign against Mr. Wilson because
of his stand against National woman
suffrage.
She e phasized that she hadn't come
to Oregon to tell the people here how
to vote, but to explain to them the point
of view of the Woman's party and to
ask for votes.
Democratic Cry Amuses.
"One thing that has amused me since
I have been in Oregon in this cam
paign," said Mrs. Kent, "is the cry that
we women have come here 'to tell the
people of Oregon how to vote.' Why is
it that every time a woman speaks to
you on a political issue she is "telling
you how to vote?
"Have the men a corner on all the
political wisdom? Do you feel that Mr.
McArthur is 'telling you how to vote?"
Do you feel that Mr. Hughes came out
here to 'tell you how to vote?
"The only way you can manage in a
Democracy is to have people of differ
ent points of view come before you and
explain the things for which they
stand. That is what I am here to do."
Mrs. Kent said that the women who
have been working for National woman
suffrage have found that the party in
power has tremendous power over
legislation, and that if the President
wishes to put through a measure, he
can get just about what legislation he
wants.
Women Excluded, She Says.
"So we women have learned," said
she, "that we must hold the Adminis
tration responsible for the things it
does, as vell as for the things it does
not do. ,
"We discovered very early In this
Administration." she went on, "that in
their talk about liberty and self-government
for the 'people' the Democrats
meant only men. When they talked
about the 'people' they didn't have
women in mind at all. They didn't in
clude women in their talk about self
government." She told of the efforts the women
had made to enlist the support of Presi
dent Wilson for National woman suf
frage. "I believe 14 delegations of
women went to see the President in the
past three years and that was quite
enough," she said. "President Wilson
was consistent in just one thing his
opposition to National woman suffrage.
President's Reasons Plentiful.
"He gave us a different reason for
opposing it every time."
Taking up the alternative of action
by the separate states for woman suf
frage, in place of the National action
desired by the Woman's party, Mrs.
Kent pointed out some of the obstacles
in the way of state action.
"It is practically Impossible to amend
the constitutions of some of the states,"
she explained. "Indiana, for example,
never has had its constitution amended;
the procedure is too hard. In Vermont
and New Hampshire it is almost impos
sible to get the state constitutions
amended.
"Before a constitutional amendment
can come up in most of the states, fa
vorable action by the Legislature is
necessary. And the Legislatures of
some of them won't even consider the
woman suffrage question won't even
let it come to vote.
Campaign 31ade In 17 Tonsues.
"So you see the state method of get'
ting woman suffrage is becoming
harder and harder. We find the state
campaigning a waste of time and en
ergy and money. Do you realize, to cite
one example, that in the state of New
York we have to campaign in 17 dif
ferent languages?
On the other hand, if -Congress, by
two-thirds vote, submitted a Federal
suffrage amendment to the state, Mrs
Kent explained, the question automat
ically comes up in every State Legis
lature in the United States. If not
passed the first time, she added, the
. measure comes up before each dissent
ing Legislature again and again, until
- it is approved.
. , "So we are holding the Democratic
party responsible for its actions in the
past four years," she said. We are
. realizing that if we are to make the
votes of women count for women, we
- must oppose the Democratic 'party.
" I hope that, some of you who thought
you might vote for Wilson will change
your minds and vote for women."
,- Mrs. Kent spoke for the re-election
of Representative McArthur.
Flea Made for Mr. McArthnr.
"If I were voting here." she de
clared, "I should vote for Mr. Hughes,
and I should vote for Mr. McArthur.
I am the wife of a member of Congress,
and I know what Mr. Lafferty's stand
ing is, and I know that this state, for
its own sake, should return Mr. Mc
Arthur." Mrs. Kent will speak today at a
luncheon of the Political Study Club at
the Portland Hotel. She will speak
Monday night in the Baker Theater at
the meeting to be addressed by uinora
Pinchot, ex-Chief Forester of the
United States. '
Representative McArthur was an

He reviewed general issues of the cam
paign briefly. Later in the evening he

Democrats in numbers attended the
street rally in front of the Alberta
.branch. No. B. of the Hughes Alliance
at East Eighteenth and Alberta streets
L-last night.. There were several nun
Sdred persons present, and talks were
imadi by Joseph Hammersley, Deputy
.'District Attorney, and John B. Easter,
'.The speakers explained to the crowd
; why Mr. Hughes should be elected, and
iMr. Easter publicly condemned the
'Democrats who last Saturday sought
ito break up the meetings of the Hughes
special women who were- in Portland.
-His remarks were lauded by many
"Democrats. Mr. Easter also spoke in
'behalf of C. N. McArthur, Republican
-candidate for re-election to Congress.
The Alberta band provided a music
programme and W. H. Hardy, veteran
sailor, gave a talk which was an inter
- esting sidelight on the campaign. He
also offered his campaign song of
Huffhes and Fairbanks.
The Alberta Branch will bold several
out all existing laws as well as all
private agreements governing the rel
tions between the railroads and the
trainmea
Under existing arrangements the
trainmen have the option of accepting
pay, for any service performed, on
either a mileage basis or an hourly
basis. For instance, in freight service.
day's work consists of either ten
hours or 100 miles. In the passenger
service the day consists of ten hours
or 200 miles. The crew is paid over
time for all service performed in ex
cess of ten hours and paid over-mile
age for all distance covered in excess
of 100 miles, or 200 miles, as the case
may be.
Now the Adamson law enables the
railroads to ignore the mileage pro
vision of their present agreement, at
torneys say. It makes eight hours,
instead of 10 hours, the basis of reck
oning the wages. The wage is the
same, under the new law, for eight
hours' work as it is under the old law
for 10 hours' work. Overtime begins
at the end of the eight hours, instead
of the 10 hours.
Overtime is paid for on the pro rata
basis. It costs the railroad no more
an hour to work a crew 10 hours or
12 hours than it does for eight hours.
Indeed, the same crew can be made to
work for 16 hours without additional
cost to the railroads. The Federal
"safety" law prevents the men work
ing more than 16 hours in any 24
hours.
If a certain run, for Instance, re
quires 12 or 14 hours, the railroads
will be at liberty to make a single
crew do this work, instead of laying
one crew off at the end of eight hours
and calling . out a Becond crew to
finish the job.
It would be possible, too. It Is pointed
out, to keep a crew on duty the full
eight hours, even though its actual
work were finished in less than eight
hours.
All Crews Must Work Eight Hours.
Some ' passenger runs, for instance,
are covered in five or six hour. Un
der present arrangements the crew is
relieved promptly on completion of its
run. The men go home and get a full
day's pay.
Assuming that the present rules will
be abrogated by the operation of the
Adamson law, a crew completing its
run in less than eight hours could be
made to perform other work in the
yards or on another run, for instance
until its eight hours were up.
One of the private agreements ex
isting between the railroads and the
men that may be entirely nullified is
the so-called seniority rule. This gives
the men, in eacti kind of service, the
choice of positions, on a strict seniority
basis. The oldest man in the service
always has the first chance at every
new job that is created. And new lobs
always are being created, owing to the
frequent changes in schedules.
Favoritism la Passible.
If the railroads want to exercise the
maximum advantage granted under the
new law it is possible that favorite em
ployes, regardless of the length of time
that they have been In the service, will
be given the choice positions those
that will enable them to pass most of
their nights at home, that offer the
best opportunity for overtime and that
enable them to pass their nights away
from home at the most comfortable ter
minals.
Another agreement require that all
train crews be permitted to end their
runs at a terminal. Such terminals
are arbitrarily established and are mu
tually recognized by the companies and
the men.
If this provision Is annulled, the men
may be required to run past these ter
minals to such point where anothir
crew can relieve them, where .hey
would be required to put up with what
ever accommodations the place might
at lord.
But the most serious situation of all
is the possibility that the compulsory
arbitration law will be passed as
direct result of the Adamson enact
ment
Members of Congress, hearkening to
public sentiment, already are preparing
to introduce such a bill in the Decem
ber session. It is reported. The publio
wants to eliminate all future danger
that any group of men can coerce the
President of the United States and Con
gress into enacting such legislation as
they demand under threat of a strike
that win tie up the industries of the
country.
Huge Aerial Battleships Similar to
German. Zeppelins Possible Later.
Officers Are Being Assembled
and Bids Called l"or.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 20. Army avia.
tion officers are preparing to carry
their campaign for the development
of the air service Into the field of
balloons and other lighter than air
craft.
Major Charles De F. Chandler, of the
Signal Corps, who has had many years
of practical experience with balloons.
has been aDDointed head of a new dl
vision created in the aviation section
of the Signal Corns.
All matters pertaining to free and
captive balloons, dirigibles, hydrogen
generating plants and the like will
hereafter be under nls charge. He is
now in New York assembling a staff
of officers to aid him preparatory to
the establishment of a School for train
ing of officers and men for the balloon
service similar to the aeroplane train
ing stations.
Bids have been advertised for two
spherical and two kite balloons, which
will be the first equipment for the
new branch of the aviation service.
With the funds for aviation work made
available by Congress, it is planned
to add additional balloons or dirigibles
as rapidly as the men to handle and
care for them can be trained.
Rubber Company Go-operating;.
The balloon school probably will be
established at Omaha, Neb., or possibly
at Akron, O.. where it is expected the
first balloon equipment for the Army
will be constructed. A rubber com
pany there is co-operating with the
War Department in developing heavier
than air craft.
The two spherical balloons to be pur
chased will be of the ordinary free
flight type, as distinguished from the
kite, or captive balloons, of use for
observation purposes. Major Chandler
has made many balloon flights, and
while the military uses of such air
craft are somewhat limited, they are
regarded as essential for the train
ing of officers who may later command
dirigible aircraft, possibly huge bat
tleships of the air like the Zeppelins
Germany is using to bombard London
and other British cities.
Captive Walloons Are Valuable.
The captive balloons are of Darticu-
lar value in spotting artillery fire
and will be employed to some extent
at the artillery school. Fort Sill, Okla.,
in the training of observers for this
work.
There is no present intention of en
tering on the construction for the
Army of airships of the Zeppelin type.
Small dirigibles will be sought for
the new branch of the aviation sec
tion as its development progresses, but
it will require the establishment of
a new policy by the department if
the bigger craft are to be developed.
in that event it is thought probable
separate service would be created to
handle this portion of the air fleet.
as the Zeppelins are regarded as hav
ing no place in the regular military
air service.

sue Dr. Foster Speaks of
Work Done for Reedy.
A variety of Democratic speakers
presented a variety of Democratic rea
sons for supporting Woodrow Wilson
at an after-dinner speaking soiree ar
ranged by women supporters of the
President at the Portland Hotel last
night.
A committee of women, headed by
Mrs. Thomas C Burke, assisted by Mrs.
w. a. OBDurn, had charge of the meet
ing and women voters largely predomi
nated in the company. Women shared
with men the honors for brilliant ora
torical effort and for persuasive Demo
cratic argument. The masculine ele
ment scored decisively, however, when
one of their number, in the person of
Richard W. Montague, was nominated
to officiate. He proved a gracious
toastmaster.
Wilson Sends Greetings.
The evening's entertainment took on
additional Importance by the receipt of
a telegram from Woodrow Wilson him
self, and one from Thomas A. Edison.
The President's message, addressed to
Mrs. Burke, read as follows:
Will you not convey to the women of
Portland at dinner tonight my cordial
greetings and best wishes, and an ex
pression of my gratitude that they
should unite with the men In the sup
port of a progressive and constructive
policy? WOODROW WILSON."
Mr. Edison's telegram, also addressed
to Mrs. Burke, reads:
"Henry Ford, John Burroughs, Luther
Burbank and myself, all Republicans
for many years, have concluded among
ourselves that the interests of the
United States of America will be best
served if Woodrow Wilson be elected.
"THOMAS A. EDISON."
Mr. Montague opened the meeting,
following a good dinner, by reading the
telegrams, which were greeted with
uproarious applause.
Woman Defends SnfTraare Views.
It was a woman Dr. Esther Pohl
Lovejoy who started the flow of Wil
sonlan oratory, the based her support
of the President on the suffrage issue.
She said she was sure that Woodrow
Wilson, if re-elected, would best be
able to secure adoption of the Susan B.
Anthony amendment to the Federal
Constitution.
Under the title, "He Has Freed More
Slaves Than Lincoln." Mrs. W. F.
Ogburn spoke her praise of Mr. Wilson.
She reviewed the various acts of so
called social Justice -accredited to the
Wilson Administration and declared
that if he is permitted to continue his
record for four years more he will have
achieved a record of social and indus
trial liberty "that Lincoln never
dreamed of."
Mr. Estabrook'a Speech Criticised.
John M. Pipes, a young attorney, dis
cussed the President's foreign policy
and insisted that the faults in it to
which the Republicans are continu
ously pointing do not exist at all. He
bitterly attacked the speech of Henry
D. Estabrook, a New York attorney,
who handled the Wilson Administra
tion here last week without the pro
verbial gloves.
Mrs. Mabel Holmes Parsons, of the
University of Oregon, reviewed, briefly
and intelligently, the rural credits bill
and the Federal reserve bill, both en
acted into law by the Wilson Adminis
tration. She pointed out that the rural
credits bill had only IS negative votes
in the two houses of Cong: cuss and chal
lenged the Republicans to oppose it.
Persons Put Above Things.
"Why I am for Wilson." was the sub
ject of an eloquent address by Dr. W.
: r osier, president of Reed College.
"Because I care more for human be
ings than for things," was the sum
mary and substance of his reasons,
which he enumerated briefly.
ro Administration has done so much
for those in need," declared Dr. Fos
ter. "No Administration has so cour
ageously and consistently resisted the
demands of those with the least need."
I can't look with favor on a party
that takes money from the pockets of
all the people and puts it into the pock
ets of the few," he asserted in evident
reference to the Republican party.
L am ior wiison because I am for
peace. Those who cry for deeds are de
manding nothing short of war. I shall
continue to be satisfied with words if
the words are those of Woodrow Wilson."
Woman Decries Sex Party.
Mrs. H. B. Torrey told, in a speech
mingling humor with logic, why she is
opposes! to the Woman's party. She de
cried the effort of the women to build
up a sex party.
She reminded her hearers that Presi
dent Wilson went to New Jersey to
cast his vote for suffrage in that state.
where raged the vigorous opposition
of mens and women's organizations,
and expressed the hope that "this will
not mislead us, but may we not give it
due recognition as an act of courage?
Colonel C. E. S. Wood was reserved
for the last and he proved well worth
waiting for. He discharged a volley of
Democratic fireworks, for which he is
justly famous.
Prosperity Not of Party, He Says.
He ridiculed the idea that Republi
can rule is necessary to prosperity and
declared that prosperity cannot come
from any political party until the party
strikes the schacklea and gags off of
the people. All a political party can
do. he continued, is to take away the
special privileges from the vested few.
"The real test of Woodrow Wilson
and the Democratic party." he said, "is
that wherever human rights and prop
erty rights have been in conflict.
Woodrow Wilson has stood for human
rights."
The meeting was closed by singing
"The Star Spangled Banner" in chorus.
