Initiate It. Mr. Wentworth In a letter
acat to ths Mayor later put the stamp

Several of ths shipbuilders already
hate expressed a willingness to
operate In the plan and at the meeting
this afternoon if there are no obalarles
ths deflnta programme will be worked
out.
-II rms to me that It would ha a
wonderful thing? all around for Port
land to entertain Mr. Schwab by taking
Ytm from vard to ard according to
schedule and to have a launching In
each yard." said the Maror In bis letter
to Mr. Wentworth. "The launching
could bo accompanied by ceremonies of
various sorts.
"Such a programme not only "should
give Mr. Schwab an Inalgbt Into Port
land's shipbuilding plants, but no doubt
would impress htm and the world at
large that Portland is doing a big part
and therefor in entitled to every con
deration in the campaign for more
ahms. In arranging for such a plan I
would surge it that yon take charge of
affairs cither personally or as chair
man of a committee.

In his answer Mr. Wentworth says.
In part: "I believe this would give
Fort land an unusual opportunity to
present to the executive directors of

wonderful shipbuilding Industry.
"I should object most strenuously to

sion placed in my hands, for. aa you

SEATTLE, Wash.. April 30. (Spe

committee of the Seattle Telegraphers
Union today that Multiplex operators
from those cities are en route to Seat
tie to assist in replacing Morse opera
tors and Multiplex operators who were
dismissed from service of the Western
Union following the union organization
meeting held last Sunday.
W. J. Miller, president of the local
union, was today dismissed from the
service of the Postal Telegraph Com
pany. Miller is the first man to be
locked out by the Postal.
The fact that the Postal has entered
into the campaign against the union,
together with the report that strike
breakers will be brought to Seattle,
were the principal developments In the
strike situation today. Both the West
ern Union and Postal companies de
clare that they have plenty of em
ployes, enough to carry on the volume
of local business without interruption.
All union employes reporting for
work wore bows of red, white and
blue, and the welfare committee of
the union reported that all employes
so adorned were dismissed from service.
Henry M. White. Federal labor medi
ator and commissioner of Immigration,
said today that he could not report
progress in bringing the employers

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
If s Easy If You Know Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young is to feel
young to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels there's no need of
having a sallow complexion dark rings
under your eyes pimples a bilious
look in your face dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety '
per cent of all sickness comes from in
active bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards, a well-known chvsician
Sn Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
ms patients tor years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the substi
tute for calomel, are gentle in their action
yet always effective. They bring about
that exuberance) of spirit; that natural
buoyancy which should be enjoyed by
everyone, by toning up the liver and dear
ing the system of impurities.
