' The questionnaire process will elim inate from consideration for military service probably 95 per cent of the men ;who would have been discharged or ex empted under the old plan. Under the first call the average board was com pelled to examine five men to obtain one for service. In some cases not more than one out of 10 or 12 was Bent to the camps. - It is expected that, under the new scheme, the average figures will be reversed and at most not more than one man in five called will fail to pass bis physical examination and be rejected. heaves to.

Point Raised That Legality of Un derstanding May Be Called Into Question Because Not Submit ted - to Senate as Treaty. WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. Formal pro test against the agreement between the United States and Japan regarding China was lodged at the State Depart ment today by Dr. K. Wellington Koo, the Chinese Minister, on Instructions from his government. The text of the document left by the Minister was not made public, but it Is understood China objects to any such action, affecting its interest, without reference to the wishes of the Chinese people themselves. News that a similar protest had been filed at Tokio reached here unofficially yesterday. Little Is to Be Said. It is probable that while the State Department and the Japanese Foreign Office will respond at on early date with explanations and declarations of the absence of any sinister designs upon China, there will be no extended diplomacy exchanged on the subject of the protests. Behind the Chinese objection to the manner in which the American-Japanese understanding was negotiated is the view that it is an. unjust and dan gerous theory that any nation has a right to assert a claim to support in terests in another country without the latter's consent. Secretary Lansing, in his statement announcing the agreement by which Japan's special Interest In China Is rec ognized and both countries reaffirm the 'opea-door" policy and pledge the In dependence and territorial integrity of China, made it clear that the United States always has recognized and has asserted for itself special Interests in another country based., upon propinquity. Doctrine Displeasing to China. The Chinese government, however, is understood to be unwilling to subscribe to such a doctrine. Intimations that have come from Peking that the legality in point of International law of the agreement might be called in question because it had not been submitted to the Ameri can Senate in the form of a treaty have made little Impression upon offi ciate here, who are satisfied that the understanding is of the same nature as the famous Root-Takahira agree ment which adjusted the ugly ques tions arising from the immigration into the United States of Japanese coolie labor. This agreement never was submitted to the Senate, nor will that made by Mr. Lansing and Viscount Ishll be laid before that body except perhaps for Information. The Administration view is said to be that prolonged and useless discus sion of American relations- with the Orient would be the only outcome of cliff erent course. T. Sawrey. G. Shepard. J. C. Shepard and Pete Mat hi son, arrested November 6. are to be brought to trial on com plaints filed by the. State Fish and Game Warden.

Gus Vollrath, a former foreman at the Olympic Steel Works here, was arrest ed today charged with causing two ex plosions at the Olympic plant and one explosion In the Aurora Foundry Com pany s works here last week.

Tennant, who succeeded Vollrath as foreman at the Olympic plant, was badly burned by the acid in one of the explosions. Officials of the Olympic plant told the police they also believed Vollrath "doctored" the steel, as they have been unable to meet Government require ments with their product since he has been in their employ.

Imprisonment Was Expected and Hoped For. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Nov. 12. Two Portland girls. Alice and Betty Gram, who were caught In the suffragette raid In front or tne White House Saturday, were round guilty of obstructing traffic, but were released by the judge of the Police Court this afternoon, along with 40 other suffragette pickets, on suspended sentence. Within 15 minutes after their release the Misses Gram and a large body of other suffragettes were again picketing the White House. They were promptly placed under arrest for the second time. and will again face the Police court judge tomorrow. They are out on bail tonight. Oregon Voters Participate. This Is the first time any Oregon women voters have actively participat ed In picketing the White Housev Nu merous pickets- now confined In the local Jail have caused so much annoy ance to jailers and to other prisoners that the Police Court judge has been disposed to Impose no further sentence for the time being, but the tact tnat most of the pickets who were let off this morning with a warning went back to picketing as fast as automobiles could carry them to the White House Is likely to bring jail sentences to those who were released today. The Misses Gram fully expect jail sentences to be imposed tomorrow, as they anticipate they will be found guilty on the technical charge of ob structing traffic Like their associates, they will refuse to pay the nominal fine that is expected to be imposed, the al ternative being a term in jail or work house. Jail Senteace Expected. Whether the sentence will be 30 or 60 days or six months the militants could not predict tonight, but all who were rearrested today are confident they will "do time." It is suffragette policy to go to Jail rather than pay a fine, the theory being that payment of a fine would be a confession of guilt. The Gram girls retired early tonight, exhausted from their experiences of the day. They expect this to be their last night of freedom for some time. Mrs. Harvey W.
