Disgusted with his inability to in sure harmony among Portland Chinese, and entertaining some fear that hos tilities among local ton gmen may again b.-eak out, Lee Mee Gin, president of the Chinese Peace Society, has broken trom the organization and from now on will have nothing to do with It. Just what specific reasons Lee Mee Gin has for resigning as head of the Peace Society he will not say, nor will any of his friends intimate, "for rea sons entirely sufficient" being the only light Lee wishes to shed on his resignation. Other members of the Peace Society who have been Instrumental in secur ing freedom from tong wars In this city have also become disgusted with conditions either inside or without the peace organization and are on tha point of withdrawing from that or ganlzation. Reason Kot Asslsrned. Testerday when asked If he could ascribe any reason to Lee's withdrawal from the peace organization, Lee Hong, interpreter and one cf the peace com missioners, asserted that he had little to say other than he knew Lee to have good reasons for resigning. Lee Hong himself said that he was about to quit the society. Juey Sing, well-known Chinese mer chant and another of the peace com missioners, was silent as to Lee s res ignation from the society be repre sents. Just why Lee Mee Gin should have difficulty In securing harmony among his fellow-countrymen is considered rather peculiar, as he is one of the best-liked and most tactful of local Chinese. , Two Societies Kot Blcnera. The fact that neither the Chinese Benevolent Society nor the Chinese Peace Society signed the permanent peace pact that the four warring tongs signed in the presence of District At torney Evans, April 86. may be a con tributing factor why harmony Is at this time Impossible. The pact was signed at the time a meeting had been set in the office of Mayor Albee. The pact not only lacked signatures of the two peace organizations, but also those of county and Federal officers that usual ly adorn such documents. At the time of the signing of the peace pact. Mayor Albee looked askance at the document, although the presi dents of the warring tongs affixed their signatures to that document in a way considered most strict. The arrest several days ago of young San Francisco gunman would In dlcate that all is not over In Chinatown and there have been repeated rumors that there was a strong possibility of the war breaking out again despite the peace pact. Local Chinese merchants, who are the financial sufferers in tong wars, agree that such a possibility exists and their attitude does not speak well for the binding qualities of the peace pact. n o j o D o o Your Safety Razor Blades can be bought at The Owl In most cases at a price that means a saving; Gillette (pkg. of 6) 45 Gillette (pkg. ot 12) 89s Durham D n- plex () 4T Keen Kntter (8) 254 Bnder's (5)...25J Gem (T)..... 354 Bveready 10 45 auto-Strop ) 50s Shaving Brushes 25c This is a good brush an unusually good brush for 254.
