covered that he didn't ' know much
about real riding when Universal ap
pointed him cnief custodian of western
roles.
"I had to learn to ride to keep from
getting killed," laughed Harry yester
day while discussing this phase of his
picture experience. "I was put in front
of a gang of cowboys and had to get
out of their way or get run over. They
put me on a few bucking "broncs" and I
hit the ground pretty frequently until
the 'Irish in me cropped out, and then
I stuck." Now there's no more daring
rider in pictures, for Carey refuses to
be "doubled" in any of his spectacular
stunts.
Carey went into pictures in 1912. fol
lowing tours with his plays "Montana"
and "The Heart of Alaska." In the old
days of the Biograph company he was
the "Biograph burglar," playing with
such present-day stars as Mary -Pick-ford.

Northwest to Be Invaded.
Carey brings to Portland the news
that this summer he expects to invade
the northwest with his cowboy "troup
ers" to make a western with much
water stuTf in it. Carl Laemmle, presi
dent of Universal, promised Mayor
Baker he would send a company to
Portland and Carey has been named as
tr-- star to make the trip.
..lie famous western actor, who di
v, .es honors in his field with William
S. Hart and Tom .Mix, is on a six
weeks' tour of some of the large cities
of the west. Mrs. Carey, professionally
known as Olivia Fuller Golden, daugh

monologist, and Carey's first leading
woman at Biograph and later with him
at Universal, is accompanying her hus

DEBATE PLANS NEAR READY
Corvallis and North Bend Among
Yinnersin First Round.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Feb. 16-r-Special.) With returns in
from the first round of the " inter
district contests in the Oregon High
School Debating League, Professor
R. W. Prescott expects to be able to
announce the question for the second
round and to pair off the districts by
the first of next week. The new ques
tion is expected to involve some phase
of the league of nations plan.
Winners thus far reported are Cor
vallis, in the northern Willamette dis
trict, where tne question was "Re
solved, That the United States should
establish a system of military training
for hovs from the ages of 16 to 20"
J North Bend won In the Coos Bay dis
trict by default.
No returns have yet been received
from the upper Columbia and the west
ern division of the league. The finals
will be held at the university of Ore
gon some time in May.

President Expected to Appear Be
fore Joint Session, to Explain
Proposed Constitution.
WASHINGTON, Feb. J 6. Opinion
of senators and representatives on the
proposed construction of the league of
nations was sharply crystallizing to
day and there was apparently a greate
disposition to give expression to views.
Although both democratic and repub
lican leaders were disposed to observ
President Wilson's request for post
ponement of debate until after he con
fers February 26 with members of th
senate and house foreign relations com
mittees, there will be little surprise
snate discussion should develop pos
sibly tomorrow.
Senators Borah of Idaho, republican,
and Reed .of Missouri, democrat, whose
frequent addresses have indicated that
they oppose any plan which involves
internationalization, were said tonight
to be considering addresses in the near
future. With the naval bill which
authorizes a new three-year building
programme, soon to come before the
senate, some members said they did not
see how it would be possible for sena
tors to refrain from discussion of the
league.
Although without definite informa
tion on the subject, many members of
congrees expressed belief that President
Wilson would appear personally before
congress in joint session to explain and
support the proposed constitution of
the league.
BOILERMAKERS LAY PLANS
LOCAL CXIOX PREPARES FOR
EXD OF MACY AWARD.
Demand for Wage Increase and
FigHt for 44-Honr Week in
Portland Expected.
Members of the Portland Bollermak
ers' union, No. 72, in a mass meeting
held at Arion hall yesterday afternoon.
took action on a tentative wage scale
to be advocated in the Pacific meta!
trades council which convenes in this
city today. As the local union is but
one of the several to submit wage sug
gestions to the superior body, an
nouncement of details agreed upon by
the Portland boilermakers, iron ship
builders and helpers was withheld
There is no evident disposition on the
part of the workers here to seek a
hange in the wage scale promulgated
by the Macy award before that agree
ment terminates, on March 31. Present
efforts concern the framing of the
schedule that is to be put into ef
fect when the term of the Macy award
expires.'
Local leaders of the boilermakers
union declined last night to state
whether demands for increases are
favored. It is understood that this is
the case and it is generally believed
the men here as well as in the other
Pacific coast districts will make a
strenuous fight for a 44-hour week.
In protest against the 48-hour week
most of the Portland shipbuilders
staged walkouts at Saturday noon on
two or three occasions late last fall.
Nitrate Shipment Expected.
VANCOUVER, Wash., Feb. 16. (Spe
cial.) Edward J. O'Connell, secretary
of the farm loan board for Clarke
county, has received a telegram stating
that a shipment of nitrate for fertili
zation purposes will reach Vancouver
March 1, if the shipment reaches San
Francisco by February 20.
Entire Coast Expected to Bo Put
on Record Behind Workers
in Seattle Shipyards.
Votes from delegates representing 24
local councils of the metal trades con
ference of the Pacific coast will de
cide today or tomorrow whether Seat
tle shipyard strikers are to be given
support in their contentions. Indica
tions are that the entire coast will be
put on record as being behind the
Seattle strikers
Just what further action will be tak
en cannot yet be forecast. Whether
the Seattle men will be given simnlv
moral support or whether sympathetic
strikes or walkouts will be ordered re
mains for the conference to docide.
Delegates, however, seem Inclined to
ininK that the time for direct action
has arrived and that "patience" in
waiting for other means of settlinar
difficulties has been exhausted.
Many Questions Are- Tip.
Aside from the matter of snnnorfinrr
the Seattle strike, many other questions
also will come before the conference,
which opens this morning in the hall of
the local Metal Trades council, Third
and Taylor streets. Differences be
tween the San Francisco council and
councils on the other side of'San Fran
cisco bay will be brought up for con
sideration and settlement, and also
questions involved in the present
strikes in California shipyards will be
threshed out.
John L. Martin, representing the
Metal Trades council of Alameda and
Contra Costa counties, will seek
recognition for his unit, which some
time ago withdrew from the San Fran
cisco council, along with other councils
in the bay region. Workers in various
shipbuilding communities on San Fran
cisco bay believed they ought to have
individual councils, instead of being
subordinate to San Francisco, and
withdrew some time ago, bringing on a
split in the ranks. To heal this split
and to present a united front in deal
ings with employers will be one of the
purposes of the coast conference.
Employing shipbuilders across the
bay from San Francisco, it is said, have
offered to deal with any responsible
committee representing these outlying,
yards; and the councils concerned de-"
sire recognition and charters from the
Pacific coast conference so they may
meet these employers with credentials
of power to act.
Break Is Threatened.
A threatened split in the front of la
bor circles at Seattle also will receive
attention of the conference. Engineers
in Seattle yards, affiliated with the Se
attle Metal Trades council, are said to
favor returning to work, and will pre
sent their resolutions to that effect to
the Seattle council tonight. It is be
lieved that the Seattle council will re
fer the matter at once to the coast con
ference for action.
Intimation also is made that a
further walkout in the San Francisco
district will occur today, it being said
that some 1600 men will quit in Oak
land yards unless ordered not to do so
by the conference. The Saturday after
noon holiday now demanded by the (
boilermakers and enforced upon other '
allied trades is said to be back of this
trouble, together -with differences re
garding overtime pay.
Reports that Seattle shipyards were
going to turn to the "open shop" prin
ciple also will come before the coast
conference. This is based upon the re
ported determination of several Seattle
yards to employ men at their gates in
stead of through the federal employ
ment bureau: . but Seattle employers
deny that they intend to seek any
change.
Statement Is Issned.
In denying any Intention of enforc
ing "open shop" conditions, an em
ployer's statement says in part:
"This we emphatically deny, and we
wish to advise our employes, as well as
the public, that the steel shipbuilders
intend to abide by the agreement be
tween the government of the United
States and the international presidents
of unions as e'xpressed by the presi
dent of the United States."
The statement is signed by the Ames
Shipbuilding & Drydock company, J. F.
Duthie & Co., the Skinner & Eddy cor
poration, Seattle North Pacific Ship
building company, Todd Drydocks, Inc.,
and the Todd Drydock & Construction
corporation.
While there will be but 24 votes cast
on all questions coming before the Pa
cific Coast Metal Trades conference
here one vote for each local council-
it is expected that there will be about
50 delegates on hand, including those
from Portland. The open session, at 10
o'clock this morning, will be taken up
largely with receiving and passing
upon credentials and in appointing a
permanent organization.
WORKERS WILL RECEIVE CARDS
Members of Oakland Council Who
Fail to Report Will Be Out.
OAKLAND. Cal., Feb. 16. Members
of the Oakland local of the boiler
makers" union who appear for work
tomorrow morning will be given union
membership cards, while those who do
not appear will be regarded as no
longer members of the international or
ganization. Formal notice of this pro
cedure was given to the workers by M.
McGuire, special representative of
the international organization, at a
meeting today of Oakland boilermakers
who had under consideration action to
rescind a vote to strike that was to
become effective Monday.
The international organization had
refused sanction for the strike. The
Oakland boilermakers by resolution to-
ay agreed that their strike vote shall
tand and that they will refrain from
work until the international organiza
tion acts in the case of 1000 members
f San Francisco local No. 6 of the
boilermakers' union employed -in Oak
land shops affected by the strike.
