OLD LAW MAY NOT APPLY Advisers Think Prohibition of At tack on Publics Armed Ship Does "ot Prevent Resistance to Unlawful Assault. - WASHINGTON, March 6. There was no final decision today on whether President Wilson has the authority to arm. American merchantmen for de fense against German submarines with out action by Congress. Authoritative intimations were given that the Presi dent was seeking a way to take the step on his own responsibility, but would act only after most mature de liberation. The President conferred with Secre taries Lansing and Daniels at their of fices, but the usual Tuesday Cabinet meeting was canceled, and in - some Quarters it was believed there would be no further announcement on the ques tion until after the Cabinet meeting Friday. Senate Situation Canvassed. The situation in the Senate was care fully canvassed by Administration rep resentatives for the admitted reason that the President would rather act under express authority of Congress if possible. Reports that there was a strong possibility of the Senate's changing its rule to limit debate were communicated to the President. Some Administration officials after careful study of the old law of 1819, cited in the Senate as preventing the arming of merchantmen against sub marines, were stronger than ever in their belief that the act has no applica tion to the present situation. . The stat ute was passed specifically to allow American merchantmen to fight pirates and privateers, and officials contend that the exemption in this connection of a "public armed vessel of a Nation in amity with the United States" does not prevent a peaceful merchantman from resisting an attack in violation of international law. Extra Session Believed Certain. The impression grew that an extra session of Congress was certain, and the time for calling It was believed to depend almost wholly on developments in the Senate and on the decision of the President on arming merchantmen. Senator Lodge attempted to introduoe today the armed neutrality bill killed by the filibusters, but Vice-President Marshall sustained a point of order that the Senate could not consider leg, tslation in extra session when thi House had not been called to meet: STORE LOOTERS PAROLED Fred Doeliler and Earl Ringle, of llillsboro, Gain Clemency.

CANNING PLANT EXTENDS Oregon Packing Company Making Permanent Improvements. . VANCOUVER, Wash., March 6. (Spe cial.) A permanent concrete ware house, 60 by 150 feet, was started today by- the Oregon Pack'ng Company, ad joining their fruit and vegetable can ning plant, operated for the- first time by the Oregon company last year. Other additions to the buildings are contem plated, and these, too, will be perma nent.

NINE ARE TAKEN FIRST DAY Rush for Licenses Results From Opening of Crusade, WhicH la to Continue Till All Are Properly Registered. Every dog has his day. Nine of them had theirs yesterday when they got caught In the crusade started by the Oregon Humane Society, which Is now operating the city pound, to round up all pups without licenses. Three "dog wagons were out, and the net" return after the day's work was done was nine dogs of about nine dif ferent pedigrees, nine different colors, nine different sizes and nine different sorts of dispositions. If, like cats, they have nine lives, they will all be blasted out as one in a few days unless owners reclaim them. One dog wagon went out into the Mount Scott, Lents and Montavlila dist ricts and rounded up whatever dogs were found running around untagged. Another wagon went south and another north on the same sort of a mission. All returned with spalls of war. It was plain, unrestricted war the dogcatch ers had in mind. There was no armed neutrality . about it. All unlicensed dogs looked alike. One particularly choice eaten yester day was an Alaska dog that wandered into the danger zone and got netted He undoubtedly will be recovered by his owner, as apparently he is a valu able animal. Many tragedies mark the experience of a dogcatcher. and particularly out in the residence sections, when a pet gets In a brush with the dogcatchers net at about the time the aog a ju venile pal happens along. The campaign la to continue. The wagons will be out again today, and probably will bring in another load. Dog owners were warned of the in vasion several days ago, and were even told when the affair would start. Pos sibly that resulted in some dogs being kept under cover. But, you owners of unlicensed pups, don t forget that the crusade is just started. There was a general rush at the dog. license window at the City Hall yes terday as a result of the crusade. The license collector wrote more dog-license receipts yesterday than on any day for weeks. DEACONESS HOWIE CLEARED Debt Over Institution Finally Paid and Mortgage Is Burned.

Retailers throughout the city materially in creased today the prices of all canned fruits, Joseph Hartlgan. Commissioner of Weights and Measures, anneunced tonight.

" CODE ASSAILANTS REVERSE ATTITUDE Meeting Called to . Plan . Ref erendum on Insurance Act Indorses Law. GOVERNOR LAUDS MEASURE Man Who Called Gathering Refuses to Abandon, Opposition and ins Motives Are Questioned Sen ator Orton tor Bill. In place of condemning the insur ance code passed by the last Legisla ture, a meeting called at Eilers Hall last night to discuss plans for Invoking the referendum, after hearing the code fully, explained, gave it an over whelming vote of indorsement. 1 p. Mahone called the meeting. He was one of only two persons, out of about 60 present, 'who didn't join In the rising veto of Indorsement that wound up the meeting. Mr. Mahone's motives In assailing the code we questioned by Senator A. W, Orton, chairman of the joint Senate and House insurance committee, which introduced the insurance code in the Legislature after holding public hearings on it for five weeks and sat isfying nearly all Interests. Senator Orton repeatedly asked Mr. Mahone who he was representing In his referendum agitation. Mr. Mahone said he was not representing anybody, and denied that he was working In the Interests of companies seeking to dodge the rate regulatory provisions of the code. "All right," said Senator Orton. "then I say that Mr. Mahone is representing only himself. The trouble with us Is that we have been taking him too seriously." He pointed out f urther, that by ad ditional taxes imposed on the com panies, the code will bring in an ad ditional 1100,000 a year revenue to the state. Schedule FUlna; Opposed. Mr. Mahone's -chief objection to the code appeared to be that It reauired all. companies to file schedules of their rates with the Insurance Commissioner. L C Mackay, chairman of the House nsurance committee, pointed out in re ply that this provision puts a stop to the practice, of g(vlng one rate to one person and another to another person in the same classification, which, he said, had been a most pernicious fea ture of the Insurance business. "This code is eminently fair to all the companies," he explained. "It does not require them to follow the rates fixed by the rating bureaus. But if they do not they must file their own schedules of rates with the Insurance Commissioner and they must adhere to these rates, which may be as much lower than the bureau rates as they de sire. Ihey cannot go out and slash here and add en there whatever the traffic will bear, making fish of one patron and fowl of another." He called attention likewise to the fact that the code had been prepared originally by a code commission, an pointed by the Governor, on which In surance men did not predominate. Mer chants, farmers, and various classes of business were represented on this com mission. At the Legislature we were flooded with letters and telegrams from heavy users of insurance urging the adop tion of this code, because of the pro tection it gave the policy holders." said Representative Mackay. "That shows how the people who are affected by It feel about it. This is one of the best codes that has ever been adopted in any state. Charles W. Robison. Deputy District Attorney, declared the oode was the first attcmnt At real regulation of in surance companies -to be undertaken in the state. "Of course it has its faults, he said It is only a beginning at regulation We shall ask the next Legislature for a good many amendments Imposing more regulation. But it is a good start. Governor Sends Telegram. Prosecution of arson cases In Mult nomah County has cost the people $10.- 000 in fhe past few months. I myself prepared sections of this code aimed at the Irresponsible companies and the irresponsible agents who have en couraged and made possible the opera tions of the fire bug-. It contains also drastio section against over-insur ance. I warn you that if the insurance companies come in here and fight against this regulation by the state, then in self-protection the authorities here will go before the City Council, and demand municipal regulation on the groundsf giving us police pro tection. And we will get it. too. It will be very much more drastic than anything: in this law' Other speakers Included James v. Moffett. chairman of the Insurance Coda Commission, which framed th code; John B. Coffey. Mr. WilliamsVnd others. They were all warmly in la vor of the code. D. C. Herrin. secretary of the com mission that had drafted the code, read the following telegram front Governor Withvconbe: Movement to rescind insurance code extremely ill-advised. Such action would be backward steo injurious to Oregon's citizens. Code was prepared by representatives or every interest in volved, comprising ablest business men, who erranted full hearing to all sides. If any of its details work hardships they can readily be adjusted by next Legislature. I . hope no step will be taken to hold up entire code, which Is recognized aa one of the best. When the meeting opened Mr. Ma hone constituted himself as chairman and at the same time began to apeak against the code. This caused jiveiy objection. Finally F. E. Beach was elected chairman and C. L. McKenna secretary, ana nr. simoub wa tuo Invited to continue his remarks. EDUCATORS TO REPORT DELEGATES TO KANSAS CITY CON VENTION TO TELL OF SESSION.

The bill is te go on .the ballot for a vote of the people at the special election In June, Among the objections to the ballot title. Representative Bean cites "that the purpose of said bill as set forth in said ballot title purports to limit the right of taxation to the 'unsold lands, while the bill to be submitted to the people in section 1 thereof declares and asserts the sovereign right of tax atien of this state forever, as to all those lands known as the Oregon-Cali fornia land grant, and granted under certain deeds." It is also contended that the ballot title "fails to set forth or make men tlon of the direction to list upon the assessment roll of the respective coun ties the said grant lands for taxation as are other lands, and that it unfairly states the purpose of section 4 of said bill.'1 Other objections also are given and what is deemed a fair title is set forth.
