CHAMBERLAIN FIGHT
IBKIGATIQN
WINS
Oregon Senator Leads Oppo
sition and Defeats Mr. Mc
Nary's Amendment.
AID REPORTED PROMISED
Attack Comes as Surprise and Sep
arate Bills Incorporating Idea
lo Be Introduced Soon in
Both Houses of Congress.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. -Wash
ing-ton, July 20. Senator Chamberlain,
In the Senate today, led the fight which
rsulted In the defeat of Senator Mc
Niiry's amendment to the food-conservation
bill proposing to make immedi
ately available $20,000,000 for building
new irrigation projects. The vote was
2! to 42.
To the surprise of his colleagues.
Senator Chamberlain took the floor and
spoke against the McNary amendment,
lie had previously said he was in sym
pathy with its purpose, although
dubious of its chances of being adopt
ed. Senator Chamberlain is said to have
nssiired John Riby, of Vale, and
V. T. Hinkle. president of the Oregon
Irrigation Association, who had urged
his co-operation on the amendment,
that he would give it his support.
Nearly every Western Senator present
voted for the McNary amendment and
It was vigorously supported by Sena
tors Jones of Washington, Borah, New
land. King and Norris, all of whom
Etrongly urged its adoption after Sen
ator McNary, in his maiden speech, had
explained the purpose of the amend
ment and shown that it was In entire
harmony with the general purpose of
the food bill.
Chamberlain In Combine.
But the amendment went up against
a notorious combination formed secret
Jy in the Senate between Southern Sen
ators, bent on preventing any regula
tion of the price of cotton, and certain
other Senators, determined to prevent
regulation of the price of steel. This
combination of cotton and steel Sena-
fore have voted solidly to keep out
of the food bill all legislation dealing
with the price of cotton or steel, even
such steel products as farm Implements.
Senator Chamberlain's speech was as
tonishing, not alone because he took a
stand against this appropriation for lr
rigation, but because of the grounds
lie assigned. Primarily he said he did
not want to see the food bill "encum
bered" with the McNary amendment.
His second reason was the more sur
prising. He said, in effect, that adop
tion of the McNary amendment would
stand in the way of a bill which he
himself introduced to have the Govern
ment guarantee interest on bonds of
irrigation districts and districts formed
to reclaim swamp lands in the South.
In other words, if Congress is going
to legislate to Increase the irrigated
urea, be wants his bill, and not the Mc
Nary plan, adopted.
Borah Taken Issue.
Closing his remarkable statement.
Senator Chamberlain said the "neces
sity for strictly food control ought to
induce us to keep out of the bill non
essentials of this kind."
Replying to Senator Chamberlain,
Senator Borah urged that the McNary
amendment was in accord with the pur
pose of the food bill; would not embar
rass it; would not modify or change
h ny provision, but would tend greatly
to increase food production.
Not discouraged by bis defeat to
day. Senator McNary will redraft his
amendment in the form of a separate
bill and will seek to obtain its passage
this session.
Senator Chaberlain and some other
Senators who voted against the amend
ment have said they would support a
separate bill of that kind. Secretary
I-ane has said the same.
Senator McNary proposes to give
them a chance to make good on their
promise.
his declaration, the government feels
that if our enemies abandon their lust
for conquest and their aims at subju
gation and wish to enter into negotia
tions we shall listen honestly and
readily for peace to -hat they have to
say to us. Until then we must hold out
calmly and patiently.
"The present lime in regard to food
conditions is the most severe we have
experienced and in the month of July
has been the worst. Drought has de
layed and want exists in many cases,
but I can declare with glad confidence
that relief will shortly set in and the
population can then bo supplied more
adequately."

MEXICO .TO INVESTIGATE
Consul Goes to Columbus Stockade
Where I. W. V. Are Held.
EL PASO. Tex., July 20. Andres G.
Garcia, Mexican Consul General, left
here last night for Columbus. N. M., to
investigate the cases of Mexican citi
zens among the I. W. W. deported from
Bisbee. Ariz.,and held at the military
stockade in Columbus.
Several hundred of the deported men
are Mexicans and the Consul-General
announced that it is the desire of the
Mexican government to see that their
rights are fully safeguarded.
GERMAN CONDITION BAD
(Continued From First Fage.
any further development of military
events with calm security.
"The burning question in our hearts,
however, is how much longer the war
is to last. With this, I come to a
matter which stands in the center of
all our interest and all our proceed
ings today. Germany did not desire
the war in order to make violent con
quests, and therefore will not continue
the war a day longer merely for the
sake of such conquests if it could
obtain an honorable peace.
Conquerors' Peace la Desire.
"The Germans," he said, "wish to con
clude peace as combatants who have
successfully accomplished their purpose
and proved themselves invincible. A
condition of peace is the inviolability
of Germany's territory. No parley is
possible with the enemy demanding
the cession of German soil.
"We must by means of understand
ing and in a spirit of give and take
guarantee conditions of the existence
of German empire upon the continent
and overseas," continued the Chan
cellor. Dr. Michaelis' words on this point
required a careful reading and are
capable of various interpretations other
than the surface one. His German
indicates a willingness to make peace
only as victors. In his use of the
words "understanding" and "give and
take" (the German words verstaendi
gung and ausgleich), he revives the
Bethmannic ideas of readjustment of
the frontiers and colonial possessions
in bargaining rather than the restora
tion of the status quo. Peace, he said,
must offer the foundation of a lasting
reconciliation of nations. Loud cheers
greeted this statement.
"It must." he continued, "prevent
nations from being plunged into fur
fher enmity through economic block
ades and provide a safeguard that the
league in the arms of our opponents
does not develop into an economic of
fensive alliance against us.
Peace Not A sain Offered.
"We cannot again offer peace. We
have loyally stretched out our hands
once. It met no response, but with the
entire nation and with Germany, the
army and its leaders, in accord with
gressional committees were in their
seats, and on a small table stood the
lottery Jar, sealed with brown paper
and showing through its transparent
walls the heap of number-filled cap
sules that must be taken out, one by
one.
In front of the table a row of Army
officers waited with the -official tally
sheets before them. Down one side
of the room ran another table where
two-score press representatives waited
to send out the numbers as they were
read.
Baker Draws First Number.
Secretary Baker briefly explained the
purpose of the drawing, then stepped
forward to be blindfolded and draw the
first number. Major-General Duval
broke the seal, and with a long wooden
spoon, bearing a ribbon of the National
colors, vigorously stirred the capsules.
The secretary reached into the jar.
picked up a capsule and handed it to
an announcer.
It was No. 258. Then, in quick suc
cession, other numbers were drawn.
while cameras and motion picture ma
chines recorded the scene.
The only interruption was the fre
quent changes of tired, announcers and
tabulators and the removal for clean
ing of the blackboards, where the result
was publicly displayed as ach num
ber came out.
Hoard rbatosraphed for Itecord.
When a group of 500 numbers had
been written the first section of the
board was taken out to be photo
graphed to establish an absolute record,
while a second section was substituted.
By the laws of chance, the - serial
No. 1 was drawn from the jar as
No. 4269 in the liability list, while
No. 10,500, the top number among the
capsules, came out No. 238. The serial
13, fabled bearer of ill luck, was drawn
in the 7S90th place.
.Registrants will receive no official
word of. ther order of liability untu
their local boards summon them for
examination, after official records of
the drawing have been transmitted to
them by mail. Preparation of these
records will begin tomorrow.
Of the first 1500 numbers drawn, 405
were below 3000. If the normal dis
trict has 3000 registrants, the names
designated by the 405 is about 1,600,-
000.
Chairman Chamberlain, of the Senate
military committee, drew the second
number, 2522. Chairman Dent, of the
House military committee, withdrew
the third number,. 9613.
Senator Warren and Representative
Kahn. ranking minority members of
the Senate and the House military com
mittees, drew the next two numbers
4532 and 10.218.
The drafting wa then turned over
to the appointed tellers, who, blindfold
ed, tooK irora ine dowi numbers as
fast as the announcer and the tally
clerks could keep pace.

mostly union workmen, delayed the
procession in every possible manner.
Beyond Yesler Way the car met with
the first expression of violence, for in
the. Journey around the loop at the
depot missiles of ail kinds were hurled
at the first car and it was in this sec
tion that the police made the seven ar
rests. Traffic Manager Richardson then
called off any further attempt to oper
ate the cars today, but declares that i
protection is given by the police the
company will operate cars on a number
of lines Saturday.
It was the 12 fired policemen who
started the organization of a police
men s union, but Mayor Gill assert
that no matter what their success they
will stay nred.
SYMPATHETIC STRIKE BALKED
Tacoma Streetcar Men Convince La
bor Council Action Not Needed.
TACOMA, Wash., July 20. Tacom
streetcarmen won a point today with
other crafts by defeating an effort to
call a sympathetic strike. The matter
was threshed out at a meeting of the
Central Labor Council and the street -carmen
said that they felt that they
could win their strike without outside
help, which would cause great hard
ship. The traction company operated 16
cars today, but did little business.
There has been no violence. Motor
man W. R. Hawley was arretsed for
running past a fire signal, but was
released.
Mayor Fawcett issued a proclama
tion today in which he said that the
city welcomed the return of the Jitney

had been knocked out by the courts,
lie allowed them a permit to run.
