SUIT FILED TO GET BONDS Assignment to Former Employer, It Is Declared, Was Procured by Fore While Imprisoned in ' Portland City Jail. Edward G. Andrews, under Indict ment for a. statutory charge, who, under the alias of Ezra Gager, purchased J5000 of Southern Pacific Railway bonds, yesterday filed 'an action in the Circuit Court against his former em ployer, Frank Gebble, for the cancella tion of an assignment of the bonds from Gager to Gebble. which was made April 8, last. The bill of complaint alleges that the assignment was made through fraud and extortion. The filing of this complaint yester day by Andrews, or Gager, bears out statements made by Mrs. Andrews shortly after her husband was indicted by the Multnomah County grand Jury At that time, Mrs. Andrews told of how her husband had embezzled a sum of money from his former employer, Frank Gebble, and hed purchased rail road bonds .with a part of the em bezzled funds. Gebbie, she declared at that time, had located her husband in Portland and had compelled him to make an assignment of the bonds, which were held by a local bank as security for a loan. in his complaint filed vesterdnv An drews, alias Gager, sets forth that he and l-T-ancea Early, who. It is alleged posea as nis wire in Portland for about a year, were returning from church one toaoDath morning when they were ar rested by the police and taken to the Kiiy jau. mere, ne claims, he was forced to sign the assignment of the bonds to Gebbie. He now seeks to have this assignment held null and void. Even while he was preparing for his Daitie lor the 15000 in railroad bonds Andrews was appearing before Presid ing Judge Kavanaugh to answer the charge upon which he was indicted. His petition to have the indictment set aside was denied. He claimed in a lengthy affidavit that his wife was per mitted to testify before the grand Jury 10 many things which she could not under the law tell against a husband. He further charged his wife with at tempting to bring about his undoing because of a spirit of vengeance and spite. Gager, who appeared in court with his attorney, next attempted to get his bail reduced from 11004 to a -$500 casn Dona. this was refused on re quest of District Attorney Evans. The District Attorney announced that he would ask to have the bond made still higher and the court announced that it usually granted the request of that of ficial in such matters. Sampel K.

Academic discussion of the rights of capital and labor, or em ployers and employes, the proper functions of each, whether or no the capitalist system Is right or wrong, like all academic and pro longed argument is correct and right and necessary. But there is a proper time for such, and that is when time is available. And time for drawing fine lines is not available now. We must examine facts. We must draw on others' experience. We must get down to business. We must get around a peace table just as quick as organization, as force, as fighting will permit. There will be the place and the time for all interests to go into prolonged discussion. And right here let me leave a thought. Around that peace table will be determined men. representing determined people, people determined upon uavlng as nearly as Is humanly possible, exact justice. Labor and capital, aris tocrat and plebeian, autocrat and democrat, will be doled out justice as their actions during the war demand. Never in this world has a tribunal set that will to probe deeper, show less mercy and punish more severely the wrong and the unjust, the narrow and the unfit, than will this. I have said we must examine facts. This Is essential If any right and lasting solution of the problem, of any problem, shall be arrived at. Theories won't do. Wishes won't do. Ideals won't do. We must grasp in our bare hands the facts. I have said we have not given the President that which he has asked for, that which he must have to make victory sure and swift. Is this a fact? I will answer by asking another question.

If this has not been accomplished in both cases generally and to the degree that both labor and capital can be relied upon by each other and the soldier in the trench; to the degree that labor and capital have volun tarily and freely entered into arrangements, mutually agreeable, sim ple and effective of operation, whereby stoppage and wastage in in dustry have been reduced to a minimum, then my assertion is an assertion of fact.
