TELEPHONE HEARING
CONTINUES TODAY
Efforts of Company's Attorney
to Caff Halt Fail.
FURTHER INQUIRY NEEDED
Possibility of Interchange of Two
Systems for Benefit of Sub
N scribers Is Discussed.
James T. Shaw, attorney for the
Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Com
pany, who came from San Francisco
to present testimony in support of the
application for increased rates, doesn't
approve of the hearing as being con
ducted by Assistant Attorney-General
Bailey before the Oregon Public Serv
ice Commission. He did not say so in
o many words yesterday, but he at
tempted to dissuade Mr. Bailey from
attempting to ascertain the methods
by which the rate structure to fix the
new schedules had been created by the
process of questioning witnesses. Mr.
ishaw also endeavored to keep in view
that it is the Government and not the
t-ompany that is making the applica
tion. Announcing that he must proceed to
points in Washington, Mr. Shaw wished
the hearing closed last night, but Mr.
Bailey insisted upon further inquiry to
determine what the experts of the cor
poration had to offer In justification of
the schedules filed.
Hearing Goes On Today.
Mr. Shaw acquiesced after Mr. Bailey
said that it would be necessary to con
tinue the cross-examination in an at
tempt to have the proposed rates jus
tified. It is expected the present ses
sion o"t the hearing-will be concluded
today.
Yesterday "W. X. Moore, division su
perintendent of plant; Engineer Flea
ger, of the maintenance division, and
K. J. Fisher, assistant rate engineer,
were principal witnesses.
Attorney Tomlinson asked Mr. Moore
whether, in case the Pacific company
should take over the plant of the Home
company, the use of both the manual
and automatic instruments would be
continued, to which the witness re
plied: "It would be my preference that one
plant be closed and the business all
merged Into the other. But, of course,
it is realized that some people would
still wish to retain the automatic in
struments. For that reason it would
probably be necessary to continue both
for a time."
Interchange of Systems Possible.
. "Isn't it entirely practicable to use
both and to connect calls over one sys
tem with the instruments of the other?"
"That would necessitate an lnter
trunklng arrangement."
"Did you not have some hotels that
Interchanged switches from one ex
change to the other?"
"The Oregon did," and the witness
added: "Perhaps some of the other
people did who have both switchboards
side by side, but not with our permis
sion." The witness admitted that the auto
matic system bas some advantages, but
declared it bad never been tested out
by carrying the entire volume of busi
ness of a large city. In Los Angeles,
he eaid, there are approximately 35,000
automatic telephones in use, and there
are 80,000 manual instruments used
there. He was under the impression
that there Is no limit to the number
of automatic telephones that may be
connected through one exchange.
Free Toll Service Doomed.
Hate Engineer Fisher denied that
there is to be abolition of free toll line
service that has been heretofore en
Joyed by patrons on certain farmers'
lines, under the proposed schedules. It
was then brought out in' cross-examination
that such had been set forth In
the rates filed November S, but had
been withdrawn in the corrections
made later and filed as an exhibit by
Mr. Fisher at the beginning of bis tea
timony.
However, In the following discussion
it was admitted by other officials of
the company, in order that there might
be no misunderstanding by the com
mission, that it is intended later to dis
continue the free toll line service that
has been enjoyed, but the change is not
to go into effect with the proposed
rates.

BIG TRUCKS WILL- PAHADE

TBANSPORTATIOX IS PURPOSE.
Mayor Baker Declares Establish
ment of Rural Express Lines
Highways Vital to State.
"The advantages and possibilities of
development of motor transportation"
are to be demonstrated next Saturday
by a big parade of trucks, according to
a proclamation issued by Mayor Baker
yesterday. The day is designated as
Highway Transport Day" in the offi
cial notice.
'It is a day for consideration of the
problems of transportation of supplies,
particularly transportation over the
highways, by rural motor express lines,"
says the proclamation. "The needs of
our military and naval forces, together
with the vast reconstruction work and
the food problem in Europe, will con
tinue to demand normal tonnage from
the railroads; thousands of men have
left the service, thereby requiring the
elimination of all lost motion if pro
duction is to be kept up; thousands of
tons of vegetables and fruits have been
allowed to go to waste for lack of
transportation, with consequent loss of
food and increased prices.
These conditions make motor trans
portation a vital subject. It is Port
land's purpose to demonstrate the ne
cessity, advantages and possibilities of
motor transportation, and to that end
the day is set aside. Officers of the
Highway Transport committee and the
State Council of Defense are to be in
charge." .
The committee In charge will be:
Julius Meier, Amos Benson and F. A.
Rasch. Truck dealers will be repre
sented by L. V. Rawlins. C J. Hubbard.

TWO HELD IN LIQUOR CASE
G. E. FIFER SAID TO HAVE COX.
FES S ED IMPORTATION PLOT.
H. Warfield Gets Preliminary
Hearing and' Is Released on
Bail of $2000.
Three persons were involved yester
day in the case against R. H. Warfield.
manager of the contracts and collec
tion department of the Home Tele
phone Company, who has been charged
with conspiracy to violate the Reed
amendment prohibiting the importation
or liquor into dry territory.
Inasmuch as only two, Mr. Warfield
and G. E. Fifer, have been named by
the authorities, speculation concern
ing the identity of the third person was
rife in Federal Court circles. It is said
that Mr. Fifer. in an alleged confession
which started the investigation, ad
mitted that Mr. Warfield and another
well-known local business man had
proposed to him a plan "for importing
liquor into Oregon.
Mr. Warfield was taken from the
City Jail yesterday, after bein'g hfeld in
communicado for 36 hours, and had
a preliminary hearing before United
States Commissioner Drake. His bail
was fixed at $2000. and he will be taken
back for a further examination on De
cember 20.
The specific charge' filed against Mr.
Warfield and Mr. Fifer, is that they
and one other person conspired to im
port, liquor into Oregon, and that on
December 12 they shipped 160 gallons
of liquor from San FTancisco to Port
land as a result of this conspiracy. The
complaint cites that the beverage was
shipped in carboys labeled "acid." and
billed to the Telephone Fire Alarm
Company. Officials declined to say
whether this shipment bad been seized.
Mr. Fifer is locked in the County
Jail. Mr. Warfield was arrested Sunday
morning, partly, it is said, as a result
of Mr. Fifer's confession.'
Mr. Fifer had been arrested in the
Union Station Saturday with nine bot
tles of liquor in his possession. He
made no attempt to excuse his posses
sion of the liquor, and admitted freely
that It was his own and that Mr. War
field had no Interest in it. He was

FOUR ARRESTED ON
E
Harry Ferrera, Son of Port
land Attorney, in Jail.
TWO MAKE CONFESSION
White SlaTo Charge May Be Pre-
fcrred Against the Three
Men Involved.
One of the boldest schemes for ex
torting money from unsuspecting vic
tims, by Harry Ferrera. son of Albert
Ferrera. a Portland attorney. Lillian
Beers. Hugh Schultz and Edwine Frye,
was disclosed yesterday by a confes
sion to the Inspectors' division by
Schultz and Frye. and further evidence
pertaining to the case was disclosed by
Patrolmen Sullivan and Forsythe who
made the arrest.
Ferrera, Lillian Beers, Schultz and
Frye. are locked up in the City Jail,
and it is probable, the police say, that
a white slave charge will be filed
against the three men.
Dora Condon, sister of Lillian Beers,
was taken Into custody last night by
Patrolmen Sullivan and Forsythe.
"I am only here to help Lillian, and
am not mixed up in the deal at all," re
marked the girl. She is a striking
brunette and it was proposed by Frye,
Schultz and Ferrera to use her and her
sister. Lillian, as go-betweens In an
effort to rob a wealthy business man
from Seattle, who was registered at a
local hotel, out of J4000 in travelers'
checks, according to the evidence found
by the police.
The prospective victim was met on
the. train while the quartet were on
their way to Portland from Seattle, a
short, time ago. According to the of
ficers, the Beers woman secured a room
at the hotel the same day that the man
with the $4000 registered.
Larson Gives Information.
It was arranged that Frye or Schultz
was to be in the room with their victim
and Lillian Beers, when Ferrera would
appear on the scene. According to
George Larson who has supplied the
police with considerable information.
Ferrera had planned to hold up their
victim, as well as bis companions, to
make the deal ring true, or the vic
tim was to be drugged and put out of
commission, so that they could secure
the travelers' checks. A disturbance in
the lobby made by Dora Condon when
she was apprised of the details of the
frameup attracted the attention of the
house detective and all were put out,
Larson says.
It has also been reported to the po
lice that two women at another hotel
were fleeced out of $150 each by Fer
rera or one of his gang, paying the
money when threatened with arrest.
George Setler reported to the Inspec
tors yesterday that he had been fleeced
out of $300 by the Beers woman. He
alleges, according to the officers, that
the Beers woman bought merchandise
and charged it to him signing the re
ceipts as Mrs. George Setler. The po
lice .are in possession of all the re
ceipts. A girl whom the police say went by
the name of Maud Larson, was also one
of the party and was with them the
night that a streetcar robbery had
been planned which went awry be
cause the Larson, woman got in a fight
in an automobile with Ferrera regard
ing division of the spoils.
Greek Held Vip.
It Is alleged by Larson that Fer
rera held up a Greek in a room at the
point of a gun and made him hand over
the cash after other means had failed
to Intimidate him.
Another victim of Lillian Beers. It
is alleged, was fleeced out of $500 with
the assistance of Ferrera. Several
Greek gamblers have reported to the
police that they have been victimized.
