RESEMBLANCE OFTEN SEEN
eral manifestations in favor of such
annexation were held during- the Easter
fete, April 20, in all the islands occu
pied by the Italians.
At Rhodes, capital of the island of
Rhodes, the people assembled In
churches and proclaimed annexation to
Greece, after a procession was formed
to escort the archbishop home.
The dispatches say Italian troops in
tervened to disperse the procession. It
is added that at Villanova a priest and
a woman were killed and two persons
wounded by Italian troops.
.It is alleged that in other places the
Italians employed strong pressure to
compel the inhabitants to sign a peti
tion in favor of Italy. '
The foregoing report was carried
from Rhodes to Athens by a courier
who sent it by telegraph to Paris. A
most rigid censorship on letters and
telegrams is being maintained in all
the islands where martial law exists.
Appearance of iXorthcutt Cliild in
V. -S. District Court at Sacra
mento Is Denied by Court.
SACRAMENTO. Cal., May 2. The
prosecution failed today in its efforts
to have the one-year-old baby of Mrs.
Myrna P. Northcutt exhibited In the
United States district court In the trial
of W. E. Oowling, charged with trans
porting Mrs. Northcutt, his cousin.
from Keno, Nev., to Sloat, Cal., for im
moral purposes in violation of the
Mann act in order to give to the Jury
an opportunity to pee whether the
child resembled Gowllng.
United States Judge Y: C. Van Fleet
said: "It would be dangerous to ex
hibit the child because of the well-
known fact that the resemblance of
strangers in blood relations is fre
quently very strong."
"I merely made the request because
of the absence of expert testimony re
garding the birth of the child." P. IL
Johnson, assistant district attorney,
said. "Mrs. Northcutfs husband has
testified by inference that the child is
not his."
Thought of Murder Admitted.
The cross examination of Mrs. North
cutt was continued today. Mrs. North
cutt testified that the plan of murder
ing her husband had "flashed through"
her mind, when asked by Johnson if
she had not "thought of killing him."
She added that she had "dreamed of
killing him," after he had taken her
two oldest children from her after his
return to Riverside, Cal., last January
from France.
"Why are you so anxious to testify
in this cape? You are not a defend
ant," Johnson said.
'"Because 1 was brought into tais
case and want to clear my good name,"
the ifitness replied. .
Love for Clowling Avonrd.
-Mrs. Northcutt testified yesterday
on cross examination that she loved
Gowling, who is her cousin, and in
answer to a question she denied that
she ever had immoral relations with
him.
The witness was asked to Identify a
number of telegrams couched in terms
of affection and state whether she had
sent them to Gowling or received them
from him.
She explained a number of cryptic
phrases. "Dictator," she said, meant
her father, the late Martin Pattison,
business man of Superior, Wis.; '"Fri
day," was her husband; "Robinson
Crusoe" was her brother, Byron Pat
tlson of I,o Angeles, and "Castle of
Gloom," meant her whole family. Mrs.
Northcutfs husband is Lieutenant
Carlton Northcutt of the United States
navy.

CASE IS CHARGED.
Laxity Lel to Four Persons Taking
Disease, Says Dr. Parrish in
Official Statement.
Action Hinges on Validity of In
dorsement to Clearing House
as Guarantee.
Because of the alleged refusal of the
United States National bank to make
good forged checks to the amount of
$532.80 paid by the First National bank
after they had been indorsed by the
clearing-house stamp of the United
States National, suit to recover this
amount was filed in the circuit court
yesterday by the complainant institution.
The action asserts that, as a member
of the Portland Clearing House associa
tion, the United States National bank
subscribed to a provision of its consti
tution that all negotiable paper depos
ited for clearance by members of the
association shall bear the stamp of each
depositing bank, and that such stamp
guarantees the validity and regularity
of all prior indorsements.
The complaint goes on to say that a
number of blank checks of the Willam
ette Iron & Steel works, signed by
President B. C. Ball but not by M. H.
Insley, secretary-treasurer, were stolen
on December 21. 1918, and later passed
on rooal merchants with the name of
Mr. Insley forged and made out to
Martin Shea" or "William Rose."
Eighteen of these, each for $29.60. were
cashed with merchants having accounts
with the United States National. .This
bank is alleged to have paid .them.
$532.80 in all, stamped them with its
clearing-house stamp and presented
them through the clearing house to the
b irst National for payment.
The irst National asserts that, reiv
ing on the Indorsement of the United
States National, it cashed these checks.
and that the defendant institution re
fuses to make good the amounts,
though asserting $.184.80 has been col
lected from clients by the defendant on
account of the forgeries.
UNCLE SAM SOLE ARBITER
C S .Alone Can Deal With Turk,
Says Morris Jastrow Jr.
PHILADELPHIA, May 2. "The east
ern question is the ghost that stalks
through the halls in which the nations
are assembled in conference and there
is only one of the great powers that
can address the ghost the United
States, declared Morris Jastrow Jr.
of the University of Pennsylvania, in
an address on "The Ottoman Turk and
the future of Turkey in Asia Minor,
at the opening session of the American
Academy of Political and Social Science
today.
"Turkey in Europe would have dis
appeared at least five decades ago had
it not been for the rivalry among the
European powers for possession of the
anticipated spoils, he said.
With the end of the war another
opportunity is presented for solving
the Turkish question on the basis of
principle. The obvious solution is to
split Asia Minor into a variety of
states."
Dismissal of Suits Asked Because
They Were Brought Without Con
sent of United States.
WASHINGTON, May 2. Increase of
intra-state telephone toll rates by the
postmaster-genoral was defended in a
brief filed by the government today in
the supreme court in connection with
pending appeals from South Dakota
and Massachusetts courts. The state
uthorities In their appeals have con
tended the Increase waa an undue in
terference with their police powers.
Arguments in the proceedings will be
heard Monday.
The government brief declares the
suits instituted to restrain the post
master-general from increasing the
rates were in realty brought against
the United States without its consent
and should be dismissed. The govern
ment also contends that in taking over
control of the telephone systems of the
country the president "placed them in
the hands of the postmaster-general
as his representative, under the broad
power given him by the resolution to
manage as he saw fit," and they thus
were in effect added to the postal serv
ice and "became as much a part of the
means of conveying news of communi
cation as the mail."
"The regulation of rates," the brief
said, "as an exerise of power. Is the
assertion of a right to control a private
business, affected with a public in
terest and subject to a public use. so
as to subject the private property to
the public ervicc upon the payment of
just compensation. To this end. In
order that the private right may not
be asserted to extort undue compensa
tion for use, the power is exercised to
regulate the price for use just as It
might be to regulate the price for the
property Itself if the fee was being
taken."
The brief denies that state police
powers are "impaired or affected by
not submitting the rates fixed by the
officers of the United States to state
control," because not only the police
regulations of the state do not affect
rates made .by the government Itself,
but the police power does not extend to
such a subject.
"The public," the brier odds, "nas
acted and fixed the rate when the
public officer of the United States
fixed it."
.The government contends that state
public utility commissions were never
authorized when created by the states
nor since to deal with the rates of
public utilities operated by govern
mental agencies.
LOAN LUCKS TWO-THIRDS
SPEED UP CAMPAIGN, PLEA OP
NATION'S LEADERS.
Treasury Department Figures Show
$1, 497, 347, 600 Pledged Many
States Held Laggard.
WASHINGTON. May 2. With only
seven working days left, more than
two-thirds of the victory liberty loan
remains to be subscribed. Treasury
department figures tonight showed
$1,487,347,600, less than one-third of
the loan quota, pledged.
Individual subscriptions In nearly
every reserve district were said to be
running far short of th'ose in previous
loans, apparently indicating that the
public was not awake to the necessity
for raising the full $4,500,000,000 asked
for in order to bring the men back
from overseas, complete demobilization
and care for those wounded in the
service.
Plans immediately were laid and
telegrams sent to every state organiza
tion in the country to make the last
seven working days of the campaign
productive of sufficient individual
subscriptions to put the loan "over the
top" without railing on the financial
Institutions and tying up credit.
The St. Louts federal reserve district
leads the country in having subscribed
1)3 68 per cent of its quota and two
other western districts Chicago and
Minneapolis rank second and third.
respectively. The southwest or Dallas
district was at the bottom when the
latest tabulation of nobscrlptions was
made.
Alleging failure to report a smallpox
case to the city health bureau, as is re
quired by city ordinance, warrants
were issued yesterday for the arrest
of Dr. Allen P. Noyes, Corbett building;
Dr. Violet May Coe, manager of the
Coe Maternity Home, and Mrs. Almira
Jones, a nurse, who lives at 617 Bybee
avenue.
Complaints were sworn to by Dr.
George Parrish, city health officer, fol
lowing a lengthy investigation carried
on by his office. According to a state
ment issued by the city health officer.
Dr. Noyes visited a woman suffering
from smallpox at least five times with
out placarding the house or reporting
the case to the city health bureau.
Dr. Coe lias been involved In the case
because, accord'ng to Dr. Parrish, she
allowed the patient to be removed from
the hospital while suffering from
smallpox after officials of the health
bureau had issued explicit orders that
the patient should not be moved. Mrs.
Jones is accused of having told the pa
tient that she was not suffering from
smallpox, and of leaving the case with
out proper fumigation.
"As a result of this negligence on
the part of the three persons who I
have issued complaints against, four
cases of smallpox developed and a great
many persons were exposed to the dis
ease, said Dr. Parrish.

PROHIBITION IS PROTESTED
California Grape Growers Would

SAN FRANCISCO, May 2. Perma
nent injunction to restrain Mrs. Ann
ette A. Adams. United States attorney,
from enforcing provisions of the war
time prohibition act of November 21,
1918. and the Sheppard prohibition
amendment, was sought in the United
States district court here today in a
petition filed by Theodore A. Bell, an
attorney.
The petition recites that unless re
strained by injunction action under
these laws will wipe out the product of
177,000 acres in California, valued at
$75,000,000. It holds the war-time pro
hibition act unconstitutional and inef
fective, since the president, in an ad
dress before congress, stated that "the
war thus comes to an end.

FRENCH LOVE NOT WANING
Reports of Ebbing of War-Tlme Ad
miration. Held Unfounded.
WASHINGTON, May 2. American
newspaper reports to the effect that
the war-time admiration held by the
French people for American Boldiers
has waned since the armistice has
caused Captain A. Mallck. aide to Mar
shal Joffre, to protest to friends here.
So far as the soldiers of France are
concerned. Captain Mallck writes in a
letter to Lieutenant-Colonel A. L. Pen
dleton of the general staff, "the only
difference is that we love you better
(than in 1917) because we know you
more.
"The real cause of misunderstand
ing," he adds, "is that Mr. Wilson has
too good a heart and thinks the Ger
mans belong to the human race, where
as they are only a sort of mixture of
tiger and snake.

Women Say They Were Treated Like
Cattle on Return Trip From
Service in France.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, May 2. The war department
and the country is likely to hear con
siderable in a few weeks about the
treatment accorded the nurses of base
hospital 46 on their voyage across the
Atlantic and at the landing in New
York. The sensation, however, will have
to await the day when the nurses have
shed their uniforms and are safely sep
arated from the military establishment
by official parchments acknowledging
their faithful services and their honor
able discharges.
They were treated like cattle on the
transport which carried them across
tile Atlantic, being left to take the
crumbs which fell from the officers'
tables, according to some of their sto
ries. Another complaint Is that when
fhey landed at New York they were
left to make their own way up town,
carrying their own luggage and equip
ment while officers on the boat were
transferred to their hotels in taxis and
limousines. A document of protest
signed by many of the nurses is ex
pected to reach the proper authorities
in due course of time.
