Kfforts are bein made by C. A. Mil
ler, manager of the liberty Loan Bond
Campaipn for Orejron, to get for this
state its just portion of credit from
rurchasea by foreiern corporations, but
to date he has been unsuccessful in a
number of instances where larpe sums
are concerned. He declared yesterday
that this situation is workingr a grreat
hardship and injustice and consider
able dissatisfaction has resulted in
financial clrcleshere over it.
Corporation Declared Vnfalr.
These corporations which have thus
far Ignored the state's interests in the
campaign, while at the same time they
are transacting great volumes of busi
ness here, have roused the ire of Port
lend bankers, -who feel that it is a
Kross injustice to Oregron. That the re
fusal of the big; concerns to pro rate
their purchases, jrlvtngr to Oregon its
3"st share, is making; it much more
difficult to reach the goal, is Mr. Mil
ler's declaration.
That the 31.000,000.000 liberty loan
hould be a comparatively easy thing;
for America to subscribe, and even a
vastly larger amount, Mr. Miller says
is a fact. Now that the first loan has
been covered and the country again
calls, not for Rifts, but a loan at in
terest, he points out that there should
be fullest co-operation on the part of
every one.
"What is Oregron's answer?" asks
Mr. Miller. "If the loan is not sub
scribed: if our troops are left ill-cared
tor. the responsibility will be direct
and personal."
Among the large corporations which
have refused thus far to apportion to
Oregon its proper share of their lib
erty loan bond purchases are the fol
lowing: Trouble Given as Excuse.
The Standard Oil Company, the head
office of which has notified Mr. Miller
that to apportion its purchases" would
entail an endloss amount ofr'trouble
therefore "the company's subscription
for the bonds will all be handled from
the head office."
The Owl Drug Company, which says
that the loan is "an Investment, not
charity," and will be handled from its
main office, not pro rating them to
states in which its branch stores are
operated.
The TVestinghouse Klectric & Manu
facturing Company, whose Portland
manager says his company will not as
sist Oregon's campaign. He asks if
the Government at Washington cannot
apportion it.
The IiuPont Powder Company, the
local manager of which says it would
be unavailing for him to ask head
nuarters, but that in the company's
"own good time" it will announce its
intentions.
The Oliver Chilled Plow Works, the
Portland manager of which says that
his firm refused to make an apportion
ment here on its purchases in the first
Joan, and he therefore hesitates to take
up the subject this time.
Some. Corporation Itonpond.
The following firms and corpora
tions have notified campaign head
quarters that they have apportioned
their purchases:
The Southern Pacific Company, with
ft 1250.000 subscription from Oregon in
the. bonds: the Orpheum Theater with
$5000; the Guarantee Fund Life with
$6000: Armour & Company with $10,000
and the Western Union, which will pro
rate part of its $2,500,000.
Speaker to Talk Bonds.
Meanwhile, campaign headquarters is
It busy place, with plans being rapidly
pushed forward in various directions
looking toward the carrying of liberty
loan facts to the four corners of the
state. Beginning next Sunday picked
speakers will lay the case for the loan
before the people in every county of
Oregon through special arrangements
Dy a. committee.
Nothing that can be brought Into
requisition to bring home the story of
the loan and or its great importance
is being left undone by those in charge.
That it is a personal matter, in which
every loyal citizen must take an in
terest and make a subscription, is be
lng borne in on the public in every
possioie manner.
G. A. Westgate, president of the Mer
chants' Exchange, has appointed R J.

Denominations of Second Loan. l"p
to $1000 at San Francisco.
C. A. Miller, campaign manager for
the Oregon liberty loan, announced to
the Clearing-House Association, at its
meeting Tuesday afternoon, that the
new bonds, bearing the 4 per cent in
terest of the second loan, up to denomi
nations of $1000, have reached San
Francisco and are in the hands of the
Federal Reserve Bank there.
Portland banks may obtain them for
subscribers as applications are made.
Subscriptions of more than $1000 are
not yet available, as allotments of the
larger amounts of bonds may be made
pro rata in case "of an over-subscription
of the issue. The second loan
bonds, however, do not begin to draw
interest until November 15.
It was decided at yesterday's meet
ing that the names of bond subscribers
at the various banks will be published,
except in those instances where sub
scribers request otherwise.

Under the title of "Concentra
tion," an unusual and sensational
act Is coming to topline the new
bill opening on Sunday at the
Hippodrome. George Lovett and
a company of five present it,
with Madame Zenda. a psycholo
gist of world-wide reputation,
featured. The act has mystified
thousands wherever it has been
presented. It is a combination of
the mystery of psychic phenom
ena enhanced by music and com
edy. The offering is a spectacu
lar demonstration of psychic
power, presenteu in a niguiy
artistic manner and vastly dif- 4
fering from the usual mind-read-
lng acts. Many different styles
of "mental telepathy" and "mind
reading" have been seen In the
past, but managers and public
alike agree that it has remained
for Mr. Lovett to combine, suc
cessfully the two distinct fea
tures of entertainment with real
psychic power in his sensational
act, "Concentration."
Accusations of Filthy Stalls and
Store Rooms, Trice Control
ling, Wholesaling, "Etc.
Laid to Hearsay.
Sanitation, prices and methods in the
Yamhlll-street Public Market are as
sailed in a report made yesterday to
Mayor Baker by a committee appointed
recently at the instance of W. B. Ayer,
Food Administrator for Oregon, to in
vestigate conditions. The committee
aomprises Professor Kelly Rees, of Reed
College; Mrs. L. Gee and J. K. Flynn.
The market dealers are accused of
following insanitary methods, of not all
being strictly producers as intended
in the ordinance establishing the mar
ket, of charging unfairly and unrea
sonably high prices, of using the mar
ket as a means of controlling prices
and of other offenses.
Blgelow Answers Critics.
City Commissioner C. E. Bigelow, who
has charge of the market, after receiv
ing the report yesterday issued an an
swer in which most of the charges arc
denied. He lays the criticisms to hear
say evidence coming from sources nat
urally opposed to the market. Other
of the charges are admitted by Mr.
Bigelow to be well taken and he de
clares changes will be made.
The investigating committee made its
original report several days ago. but
it was withheld from the public owing
to Mr. Bigelow having appeared before
the committee and made a request for
further investigations. Accordingly
the committee appended a subsequent
report explaining more fully some of
the charges, but not retracting on any
criticisms made.
Committee Report Saysi
Following is the committee's rtnnri
in part:
It is bv no means an uncommon occtm-n
for unsuspecting purchasers to have palmed
off on them spoiled fruits and vegetables,
and apparently they have no redress. The
street and sidewalk around and under the
stalis is never properly cleaned.. One ob
serves bits of decaying fruits and vegetables
that look ss though they had been lying
mere tor weeks. Metween 6 and 7 in the
morning. Derore the garbage wagons arrive.
ne entire street presents an ualv aDnearance
and filthy it is, too, as one whose sense of
smell Is not totally lacking can verify for
nimseit 11 ne take tne trouble to walk
tnrougn the market at this hour In the
morning. Great heaps of husks, skins and
other refuse are plied up all along the street.
l.lttle more than half of this garbage Is
put Into cans. Not only la the supply of
garbage cans quite inadequate, but those In
use have ttcver been washed: the stench la
most offensive. These rana stand on the
street all day without lids or coverings of
any Kina.
Produce in Streets.
Although platforms are built under the
stalls to hold the surplus produce, much of
it Is laid on the street back of the stalls.
and Is thus contaminated by the drainage
nd dirt of the street. One also notices
coats, hats, shoea and other wearing ap
par.l piled indiscriminately on the plat
form among the vegetables.
One of the most objectionable and lnssni-
tary practices In the market Is the washing
of the vegetables In the gutters. This is the
common practice of the Japanese and Chi
nese at the northwest and southwest corners
of Fourth and Yamhill streets.
If street conditions of the market are bad.
those of some of the storerooms are infinite
ly worse. These storerooms are the base
ments and nearby empty stores which the
market people make use of for storing left
over fruits and vegetables. The worst of
these- are 204 W Fourth street and 2S Yam
hill (basement). These aro used by the
Japanese and Chinese, respectively.
Obviously a market that neither reduces
prices to the consumer nor offers superior
ana iresner loon is a rallurc, and ought
either to be reformed or dispensed with. It
doe. not always follow, nor is it necessar
lly desirable that prices in the market
should be lower than at other retail stores
In the city, but the general level of all
prices should be lower.
Food Price Reviewed.
It Is the opinion of th commission that
the market has been used in particular In
stances to raise the price of certain articles
of food. For example, the Japanese, who
virtually control the tomato crop. If thev
cannot sell to the commission house at their
own price, use the public market, where they
set tne price at a high mark.
It Is significant that th. tendency of the
jnarket people on lamhlll street is to com
bine; for the producer' to have a selling
agent, or to sell outright to the stall renters
who do a commission business. A bona fide
producer who sells only what he produces
and nothing else Is an uncommon person In
tne puoilu market these duys.
Market Fggs Higher.
On the West lde, which is nearer the dis
tributing centers, there is practically no dif
ference either in price or quality between
store, and the public market. The uni
formity Is startling. Eggs seem to be the
one exception: fresh eggs aro usually 6
10 cents a do. en higher in the market. The
prices in the bellwood and Woodatock dis
tricts are also practically the same a. in the
market.
Hucksters ana peddlers, so far as our ob
servation goes, seem to undersell the Mar
ket, although they buy their atuff from the
same place that most of the renters In the
Market patronize. We refer to the largo
Italian market on the East Side at Union
and Madison streets.
To sum up. prices In the Market and
elsewhere throughout the city are very uni
form, wnne there are exceptions, vet
general, fruits and vegetables In the Market
are no fresher nor of better quality than
those handled by hucksters and grocers.
The professional stall renter Is a past. mas
ter at treating and trimming his wares so
a. to give them a fresh appearance.
Renters Not Producers.
Only producers have a right to rent these
public stalls. It Is a notorious fact that
not half of these stall renters produce what
they sell. Apparently the only person that
Is not aware of this tact la the present!
marital master. now anyone can walk
through the Market and not notice fhes. Il
legal practices the commission has been un
able to fathom.
The commission has evidence t show that
at least eight Italian renter, are not pro
ducers: most of them live here in the city.
They affirm very vociferously that they
have some connection with o-and-So'.
farm. It 1. true In many cases that they
act as selling agents lor particular gar
deners. but they win also sell anvbodv
else's produce and buy from the wagons in
orner 10 1111 out ineir atocw.
We have sufficient evidence to show that
non-producers constitute a very large por
tion of those who occupy stall, in the
mar-ket.
' The Commission has serious doubts
whether the pearhgrowers of The Ualles
and elsewhere nave a right to use tho mar
ket as a wholesale distributing point. Soma
or these fruitgrowers formerly ran stores
In the elty. since the establishment of the
market this Is no longer necessary.
The, Japanese also use their stall, as
wholesale dispensing places. This is espe
cially so ot tne Japanese Detween Fourth
and Fifth streets on the north side of the
street.
Recommendations Made.

will do sway with favoritism In the allot

Charges Are Hearsay.
In reply to the report Commissioner
Bifrelow yesterday said, in part:
Some recommendations- and criti
cisms in the report are well taken, and
the market-master and I have already ,
taken advantage of those suggestions
and have applied a remedy. ReKard-
Ingr other portions of the reports there
no question in my mind that they
are based wholly upon Hearsay evi
dence, and that hearsay evidence prob
ably coming; from those unfriendly to
sny public niarkst. That the market
is not perfect Is admitted, but constant
effort is beinsr made to develop and
Intaln it alonfr riarht lines.
'The statement that a bona fide pro
ducer who sella only what lie produces
and nothing else is an uncommon per
son in the public market in these days
la not correct. As a matter of fact.
from 60 to 75 per cent of the occupants
-f stalls each day are bona fide pro
ducers, ROllinr? their own products, and
the remainder are the direct agents of
producers working at a flat salary.
Illch Prices Admitted.
'We realize that prices are high in
the market, due to the drought and
war conditions, yet, quality considered,
according to the reports of other inves
tigators. It is shown that prices on
most produce are less on this market
than in most stores.
'The statement that the market-
master fixes minimum prices is based
on misinformation.
'The statement that renters on th
public market patronize the Italian
public market on Union avenue is based
cn hearsay. Numerous investigations
of such reports bv city detectives and
others have failed to find these reports
to be a fact, except rarely, when prose
cutions have been made.
Regarding wholesale and retail
selling on the market, it Is a question
whether the market authorities could
limit the amount sold to any person.
The question of shifting of pro
ducers from stall to stall at frequent
intervals has been considered by the
old advisory market board many times
and tho conclusion always reached
that for the convenience of all con
cerned the existing: practice should be
followed.
In the matter of leftover vegetables
Vegetables that are not fit for sale
have ben and. will be ordered, from the
market.
Sanitary Rales Enforced.
"I have often requested Inspectors in
the bureau of health to enforce the
same sanitary rulings on tfie public
market as enforced elsewhere and they
have assured me that they have fol
lowed this practice.
"Every applicant for space to sell
produce) must sign an affidavit with
the market-master showing himself ft
producer. where located, produce
grown, show tax receipts or lease of
property, rrequent trips are maae to
the farms and gardens to maKe sure
tt at they grow the produce offered.
suspension of the Arbuckle refinery
should have no effect, either on the
supply or price of sugar. There Is a
supply on hand in licensed warehouses
to more than meet the demand until
the beet crop arrives.
The only reason, according to the re
finers, for tho withdrawal of American
companies from the Cuban market was
the fact that Cuban sugar raisers had
taken advantage of the presence of the
British Royal Commission in their mar
ket to raise prices. The withdrawal of
the Americans has amounted to a boy
cott on the Cuban raisers.

JNFANT MORTALITY is'something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all

they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen!
We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save many
of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile
deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and sooth
ing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium or morphine.
They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity, they stupify,
retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. There can bo no danger
in the use of Castoria if it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher as it contains no
opiates or narcotics of any kind.
