2 TTIE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY. 31 ARCH 9, 1917. LAND GRANT ISSUE BEFORE HIGH COURT Attorneys for Railroad and for Government Heard 4i and Heney Files Brief. JUDGES ASK QUESTIONS Company Contends Ferris-Chamberlain Act Does Not Give Value, Because Company Has Been Put to Expense. OttEGONIAXNETVS BCREAT7. -Washington. March 8. Argument of the Ore Kon & California land grant case was begun in the Supreme Court today and will be concluded tomorrow. Peter F. Dunne, of the Southern Pacific, made the opening argument, followed by C. J. Hmythe, of the Department of Justice, for the Government. Perry N. Traf ford, of New York, for the Union Trust Company, will make the concluding argument tomorrow. .After argument had begun. Francis J. Heney, as amicus curia, presented a brief in the case as representative of the applicants, Mr. Heney having been employed lor this purpose by S. A. D. Puter. When this brief was filed the lime had been fully parcelled out and It is not likely that Mr. Heney will have opportunity to make an oral argu ment. Railroad Holds' Grant Complete. Mr. Dunne in his argument Insisted that the grant to the railroad company was complete and absolute and had been so held by Supreme Court in its first decision. Thereafter the railroad company could not be divested of its title or be compelled, to sell until it was ready. In answer to questions from the bench. Mr. Dunne said the Ferris Chamberlain act did not give to the railroad company all the value to which it. was entitled under the granting act, that the payment of J2.50 an acre, less fcpecified deductions, would not be full compensation. He further set up the contention that the railroad company even under the court's previous deci sion, had the right to cut and dispose of the timber before parting with the land. One of the Judges submitted to Mr. Dunne a question whether the railroad company would not be fully compensat ed under the Ferris act if it received ,.$2.50 an acre, provided the court should find it was entitled to cut the timber. Amount Declared Insufficient. Mr. Dunne replied that even under those circumstances J2.50 an acre would not be adequate compensation because the railroad company has been paying taxes and borne other expenses of ad ministration. He argued at length that Congress had exceeded its authority in passing the Ferris act and insisted that the court in referring the case to Con gress expected it to grant relief from conditions and restrictions Imposed by the granting act and not with any idea that Congress would seek to revest title In the Government, forfeiture hav ing previously been denied. Mr. Smythe in his argument followed the lines laid down In the Government brief. Mr. Heney In his brief sets uj the contention that the Ferris-Chamberlain act is Invalid "because it is an at tempt to take private property without Just compensation and for private uses and also without due process of law."

VierT of One of Spacious Roomn at the Dartford School, Where Women Re cruits Are Being Instructed. For the first time, as far as Is known, women have been accepted for mili tary service. The recent announcement of the British government that women would be accepted for military service as cooks, and waitresses for the army has met with ready and willing response. Already a large number of girls are in training at the special center at Dartford and when they have completed their general course of military cooking and waiting, they will be drafted to different camps. Their pay will be 10 shillings a week with full board and lodging. Spe cial huts and canteens are being equipped for them. The training at Dart ford includes general cooking, the use of field ovens, waiting and carving. The course lasts about one month. LOXDON, March 8. The. Prussian food controller. Dr. Georg Michaells, made in the Prussian Diet yesterday what the Koelnlsche Zeitung calls a eerious speech on the food situation, ways a Reuter dispatch from Amster dam. Dr. Michaelis declared the dis tress was such that a more Berlous state of things, especially in the large indus trial centers, could hardly be imagined. He indicated the possibility that all rurplus stocks of grain would be ex hausted and said that very radical measures were needed to enable the people to hold out until next year. "We have in the third year of tho war." the food controller is quoted as paying, "discovered that among all sec tions of the people the general feeling evinced is not one of that endurance for which we had hoped. This is hu man nature, but it is highly deplorable and may cave most serious results. "We have not perceived in the towns that stern supervision which is abso lutely necessary in the distribution of foodstuffs. There has been widespread abuse of bread tickets, entailing grave consequences as regards our stocks. Bread tickets have been illegally used on sucn a snocKing scale that our en tire reserves were exhausted. So. when potatoes failed and bread, was ordered as a substitute, there was none avail able. Flour has been similarly reduced, owing to similar irregularities in the nills. Lr. Michaells concluded by urging the utmost severity to remedy the shortcomings while there was yet time. Some of the mills would have to be closed and the municipalities deprived of their autonomous powers. Rationing and requisitioning must be strictly ap plied with respect to eggs, milk, butter, fruit and vegetables. He added: "We.are confronted with the thought of what would happen if this measure also should fail and what grim starva tion there would be if suddenly during the closing months of the economic year we should find there was insuffi ciency and we could not hold out. The (ensuing misery would be indescribable." The speech caused a sensation and the Socialist Hufer, who followed, ac cording to Rheinisch Westfalische Zei- ung, declared that the junkers were o blame if a famine supervened. An attempt was made, he said, to shift the blame on England. "The selfishness of the agrarians." he Eaid, "is the cause of the hljh prices. The war would long since have been ended If everybody had to suffer hunger equally. 1 he present meat ration Is insufficient. To withhold such a nec essity from the people in the interest only" of agrarian tariff is damnable. I recall Professor Abbes' retirement from the council of the war feeding depart ment. The strikes of munition work ers In Essen and Berlin, owing to under-feeding, have only too well justi fied him." The Minister of Agriculture then spoke and vigorously defended himself against attacks. He alluded to the crit ical situation created by the partial success of the entente's plan of starv ing Germany, and added: "For the small bread ration one can only make the Almighty responsible, who has not given us the harvest we need." FOUR-FOLD' BENEFIT From Two Grand Medicines In Spring. Tou know that physicians often give 1 wo prescriptions, pernaps more, or medicines to De taken together, or al ternately or at airterent times. One reason may be that the medl clnes are "incompatible" do not agree when closely mixed in taking or that desired results cannot be secured by one meaicine atone. The most successful Combination Spring medicine treatment5 that we know of because perfectly "compat ible- ana productive or the best re suits is in Hoods Sarsaparilla and Peptlron Pills. The former thoroughly searches out and expels impurities from the blood, while Peptiron Pills give the powerful tonic they literally "put Iron into your blood." Hood's Sarsaparilla should be taken before meals and Peptiron Pills after meals patients taking them so report the benetit is four-fold prompt, nosl tlve, permanent. Both these medicines are economical and pleasant to take. ELL-AWS Absolutely Removes Indigestion. Onepaclcage proves it 25c at all druggists... TERES!

Q o 16-Year-Old Bride of Two Months Finds Missive Deliberate Driv ing of Motor Truck Over Cliff Is Unparalleled. That Antone TeresJ's plunge to death. when he drove his auto truck over a precipitous 150-f,oot bluff early Wednes day morning, was a deliberate act of suicide is testified to by a note left at home by the despondent produce dealer. Mrs. Teres!, who Is hut 16 years old and became a bride two months ago, found the briei. message yesterday morning, written on 9. scrap of paper and tucked away In the pocket of Teresi's best coat. According to Attor ney M. G. Montrezza, who was inti mately acquainted with Teresl and his affairs, a substantial translation of the note, which was written In Italian, con firms the suicide theory. "I have decrded to kill myself, ran i the message. "I have had no luck and am unable to support my family." Relatives Hold On to Note. When Informed that the note had been found. Deputy Coroner Smith went at once to the home of iu.rs. Teresl, on Karl street, near East Sixteenth, and attempted to procure It. He was shown the note by relativea, who resolutely refused to part with it. Some controversy arose as to whether the writing was that of Teresl, and It was taken to the Courthouse for com parison with Teresi's signature on his naturalization papers. Attorney Mon trezza states that the writing was abso lutely established as tha of Teresl. upon tne rerusai 01 relatives to yieia the note of their dead kinsman. Deputy Coroner Smith referred the matter to the Sheriff's office, and Deputy Sheriff Phillips made an unsuccessful attempt to convince them that the note should be given up. Aside frpm furnishing a translation the request met with a de nial. Both the Sheriff's office and the Coroner dismissed any further attempt. Financial Troubles Known. By the account of Attorney Mon trezza. the young produce dealer had been in financial straits for some time, and was known to be despondent. No threat or Intimation of his intent to take his own life had been received. however. Teresi's choice of death Is probably without parallel. Seated calmly at the steering wheel of his auto truck, re turning to the city from a trip'for prod uce, he turned the machine toward the verge of the cliff, overlooking the O. W. P. right of way, near the Inman Poulsen Lumber Company's yards, and sent It hurtling downward. His body was found near the broken wreckage of the machine, at 7 o'clock Wednesday morning, being first de scried by a passenger on an inbound Oregon City car. Thousand Motor Vessels of 1000 Tons Each and Which Can Evade Submarines Can Be Turned Out Yearly, Is View. NEW YOIUC. March . A plan whereby tonnage can be created in this country '"faster than Germany can sink it has been devised by Jr. Huntington Clark, an American engineer, accord ing to an announcement here tonight before a joint session of the Ajtomo- I bile Club of America, the Aero Club of I America and the Motorboat Club of America. The new type of vessel. It was said. could be built In great numbers quickly. at small cost, and by men of little skill. Each vessel would be mastless. smokeless and of diminutive size and would have such low visibility as com pared with the great steel ships now afloat that It could be seen by a sub marine at barely more than a third of the distance at which the 10,000-ton steamships now are detected. In addition. It was asserted, the new craft, propelled entirely by motor, would offer a smaller mark, would be more easily maneuvered in event of an encounter and because of Its small draft of from 11 to 13 feet torpedoes that ordinarily would sink the larger ves sel of steel construction would "pass Idly beneath it-" It Is estimated that 1.000,000 tons, or 1000 vessels of 1000 tons each, with a speed of nine knots, could be built at a cost of $100,000,000 in a year. These boats would be 1S5 feet over all with 36 feet beam. The same amount of tonnage, with a speed of 14 knots, It was said, could be built for $150, 000,000. Mr. Clark's plan Is to utilize all of the coastal wooden ship yards, which now have a capacity of 250,000 tons a year. To enlarge these plants. It was asserted, would require nothing more than the clearing of additional beach or bank, the laying down of more cheap wooden ways and the setting up of additional lumber planting and sawing machinery. The labor, he contends, can be created from the "rawest material." SHIP FUANT TO BE ENLARGED Xew York Company Begins Con struction of New Vessels. NEW YORK, March S. The New ork Shipbuilding Corporation an nounced today that It Is increasing by approximately 50 per cent the capacity of its plant at Camden, N. J., and has begun the construction of four standard freight steamers for its own account. Two of the vessels will be of 5500 tons capacity each and the other two of 4000 tons each. Efforts will be made to have them completed within a year. The company also has laid down two freight and passenger steamships for W. K. Grace & Co. and two freighters for the International Mercantile Ma rine. The Grace steamers will be oil burners of 5000 gross tons each, with accommodations for 100 first-class pas sengers. The Mercantile Marine vessels, the shipbuilding company's statement said, will be of 10,000 tons capacity each, and are understood to be destined for use by the Atlantic Transport Company. crepes and nainsooks, IIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIEIIIIIlillllllllllllllllllllllllllHIlII 1IIIIIIIIIIII1II1IIIIIIIII1IIIIII1I1II1I1I1II1II1IIIIIIIIIIII1IIIIIIII1IIS I Hundreds of Bolts of Beautiful and Dainty Laces 1" E Our Buyer, While in New York, Was Fortunate in Securing a Great Lot of Beautiful and Dainty E Laces at Unusual Price Concessions At Friday's; Sale You Profit Accordingly.

GUARD SYSTERI ALL RIGHT Progressive Business Men's Club Is Told Criticism for Nation's Defense Luck Should Be Accepted by All Men. "Nobody wants war, but ws Amer icans are not afraid of war if it comes." said Lieutenant-Colonel U. G. McAlex ander in a stirringly patrlotlo "pre paredness" address yesterday before the Progressive Business Men's Club Pat the Multnomah Hotel. In fact. the Army man's address was more a talk on "unpreparedness" of the United States than of "preparedness." We are the most undisciplined peo ple in the world, and something must be done, and that quickly, to change this order of things. Give us the tools, or, better, let's make those tools ourselves, and then we can do our duty. "Our duty to our own Government, to ourselves, is so to arrange our af fairs, so train ourselves that we will be prepared at all times for any Inva sion. Self-Criticlsm Needed. "After there was a call to arms and our National Guard was sent to the Mexican border, we heard many crit icisms of the conditions of the men, Dhvsical and otherwise: we heard criticisms of the manner of the mobili sation, etc., and everybody from con gress to the War Department to the National Guard system was criticised, but we failed to criticise ourselves. We are to blame entirely for the pres ent condition of things. "Of all the poor excuses for unde fended sections of any country Oregon and Washington are striking examples, simply because we have not prepared ourselves. We have been too willing to sit by and let "George do It.' ir George' Is to do it well, let's pay him for doing it. "The National Guard system is all right, but you young men must be prepared to handle Interior as well as exterior troubles. "The burden must be carried equally by th son of every mother. "V e must be better disciplined, and the sooner we learn this the better for the country, for then, too, may be the fathers will know how to bring up their sons." Ex-Senator Charles W. Fulton was to have talked to the club on "Fili bustering," but Illness prevented. The club, however, showed its feel ing against the recent filibuster In the Senate by adopting the following resolution: Whereas. Ths Progressive business Men'p Club of Portland, composed of business ami professional men of the city of Portland. Or., holds in sacred esteem the honor of the Nation and the great precepts of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness upon which this Nation lias been so wisely built; and Whereas, Every Intelligent American has long; sinoe known that this country is fac ing a National crisis, wherein the Presi dent of the United 6tates is entitled to the unswerving support of those in au thority and those delegated by the people to stand for American principles In the halls of Congress, so that all the people shall secure the blessings of liberty to themselves and their posterity; and being convinced. In spite of attempted explana tions, that the recent action of 12 men In the United States Senate. . In using; the filibuster to thwart the will of the great majority of those in Congress and the great mass of American people who would main tain the noble principles upon wl.ich thic Nation was founded, can but be viewed with indignation and amazement, such ac tion. In our Judgment, being comparable in result only to plots of a foreign power against the lives and freedom of our citi zens; and Whereas. To our added astonishment and lnexpressable consternation, we note with humiliation and sham that Harry Lane, from Oregon, was one of the Senutors men tioned as being among this number of 1 -now weighed In the balance and found wanting; now therefore, be it Resolved. That this club record Its heart felt humiliation and utter condemnation of the acts of these 12 Senators and especially the part this Senator from Oregon has played under the gulBe of representing his constituents; and be it further Resolved. That we. in so far as we are able, wholly repudiate such acts of said Senator as expressing the wfil of his con stituents; and that we give voice to the earnest hope that this Senator will see his way clear to relinquish his seat in tbe United States Senate to the end that a frue spokesman for the great mass of cltt- ' zens in the slate of Oregon may be sub stituted in his plarf. ss-ta ONLY $160 CASH At the Security Storage Co.
