AVIATORS IN HIGH SPIRITS
Voyage From California Made
: Without Any Mishaps.
FOG, SNOW, RAIN ARE MET
landings Are Graceful. Yet Folk
Who Watch. Get Thrills as Two
Fliers Dodge Grief.
Seven great planes, like rocs from
Sinbad's cruises, came humming down
to the green turf of the Eastmoreland
municipal golf jinks yesterday after
noon,, aerial guests and performers at
Portland's Rose Festival pageant, on
the conclusion of their flight from
Mather. Field, Sacramento, where they
took wing Sunday morning.
One by one they droned down from
the clouds, in graceful swoops and cir
cles, till their landing gear spun on
the cropped grass and they settled as
lightly as carrier pigeons," with soldiers
racing out to wheel them into line for
the final perch after the long flight.
They will make their first exhibition
flight for the festival this forenoon, ris
ing from Eastmoreland field at 10
o'clock, and carrying civilian passen
gers, including newspaper representa
tives, who have been invited to sample
the higher ozone of the clouds.
Plane Brinss Governor.
Though they came to the Festival on
a frolic, their pilots drove them high
over the Siskiyou range, through fog
and sleet and cold, with the certainty
that the squadron was but blazing the
trial for the fleets of another year,
when the air route will have been es
tablished as an indispensable short-cut
for the rapid transit of mails and com
merce. Commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel
Henry L. Watson, as flight leader, the
Festival squadron of army planes, of
ficered and manned by" men of the
service, not only bombed into insignifi
cance all previous novel arrivals at
the city's floral fiesta, opened a new
era in traffic on theNcoast, but de
livered, right-side up with care, smil
ing and genuinely happy, the first gov
ernor of Oregon who ever visited his
slate's metropolis via the wings of the
w ind.
"The experience of my lifetime."
laughed Governor Olcott, as the big
Curtiss, piloted by Colonel Watson,
came to rest on the links at 12:13
yesterday afternoon. "Here's my ad
,vice. all you folks: if ever you get the
chance to fly. don't let it escape you."
Eagle's Speed Maintained.
Flying from Salem to Portland, the
last leg of the cruise, the first cum
grew hawklike against the clouds in
lees than 40 minutes after it left the
field at the capital. Back of it, like
pursuers who had the day before them.
floated the leisurely companions of the
first squadron a covey of five Curtiss
planes. Tet they were swooping down
en Eastmoreland at SO miles an hour.
The planes alighted in the following
order: First, Lieutenant Earl Neubig,
with Sergeant O. Kessell, passenger;
second. Lieutenant Charles W. Schwartz,
with Sergeant Thomas Strohmier,
passenger: third. Lieutenant J. M.
Fetters, with Sergeant John Milkewski,
passenger; fourth. Lieutenant Frank D.
Hackett, with Sergeant Charges A. La
jotte, passenger: fifth. Colonel Watson,
with Governor Olcott as passenger.
The hugeDe Haviland bombing plane,
of the type that dropped American ex
plosives on German camps, capable of
a speed of 124 miles an hour, car.--
wheeling in from Corvallis at 3 o'clock,
followed a half hour later by the sev
enth and final machine, a Curtiss,
which had tarried at Lebanon for a
morning exhibition flight. The bomber
was piloted by Lieutenant William
McR. Beck, with Lieutenant William
Bavan as supercargo, while the last
Curtiss was piloted by. Lieutenant
Krull.
Aviators Are Welcomed.
Met at the Held by the festival re
ception committee, headed by William
McMurray, the aviators were taken at
once to the Multnomah hotel, where
they cast aside their leather coats and
helmets, to reappeear a few moments
later in regulation uniform, as guests
at a luncheon tendered in their honor
by the festival directors.
"You're some boy, Ben, some boy,"
the spectators hailed Governor Olcott,
when the state's chief executive stood
on terra firma and grinned from his
helmet, for all the world like one of
the LaFayette escadrille. "Now you
want to go to your hotel and wash,"
someone suggested.
"It wasn't dusty up where I've been,
thank you." replied the governor.
"The flight was successful in every
way, and without a single delay or ac
cident to mar it." said Colonel Watson.
"We made a great many observations
that should be of benefit in future air
flights along the course taken. On the
whole the landing fields are good,
though that at Salem is too short, forc
ing the planes to land across it.

BILL PASSES HOUSE
4 MEMBERS OPPOSE REVOLVING
FtSD APPROPRIATION.
Democrats Urge Larger Amount but
Present No Amendment; Future
Needs Held Problematical.
WASHINGTON, June 10. By a vote
of 305 to 4 the house today passed the
bill authorizing an appropriation of
$750,000,000 for the railroad adminis
tration's revolving fund. Democratic
members urged a larger amount, but
did not press any amendment for an
increase, while republicans declared
the fund would be sufficient until later
in the year when future needs would
be known. The measure now goes to
the senate where leaders plan early
action.
Votes against the appropriation were
cast by Representatives Anthony, Kan
sas; Ramseyer, Iowa; Woodyard, West
Virginia, republicans, and Thomas,
Kentucky, democrat.. None of them
urged his objections to the bill during
the debate which was marked by the
injection of considerable political dis
cussion. Chairman Good of the appropriation
committee. In charge of the rail bill, ex
plained that reductonfrom $1,200,000,000
requested by Director-General Hineswas
decided on by the committee because it
was admitted that exact needs of the
future were problematical. The new
fund, he said, would make a total of
?1. 250,000, 000 granted the administra
tion since the rail lines were taken over
by the government.
In the senate debate proceeded on
the Cummins bill to restore to the inter
state commerce commission immediately
ts power of supervision over interstate
railroad rates. Senator Nelson, repub
lican, of Minnesota, protested against
nsertion of an amendment to limit the
restoration of supervision to interstate
rates. The amendment, he said, would
leave intrastate tariffs "at the mercy
of the railroad administration."
In reply. Senator Cummins declared
that to subordinate the federal govern
ment as operator of the lines to the
authority of the several states as to
intrastate rates would be indefensible.
BUTTER AND EGGS WEAKER
Early Decline in Prices Is Predicted
in Chicago.
CHICAGO, June 10. Price reductions
butter and eggs were predicted by
experts here today, who declared huge
excess storage stocks, lack of heavy
export and a big production season
would combine to bring the decline.
Figures posted today by the Chicago
butter and egg board show there were
on June 1 in 55 warehouses composing
the associated warehouse organization
an excess of 9,950,000 pounds of butter
stored, compared to last year's holding,
and an excess of 310.000 cases of eggs.
On June 1, 1918, there were 7,004,000
pounds of butter in these warehouses,
while this year shows a storage of 16,
963,000 pounds.

Curtis plane today by Lieutenant Krull.
The box was a gift to him by the Leb
anon Red Cross.
Five thousand persons saw the lone
two-seated Curtis airplane play in mid

Federation or Labor Urged to "Help
Destroy Worst Labor Autocracy
Country Has Known."
CHICAGO, June 10. The Commercial
Telegraphers' Union of America was
ready tonight to strike at 8 o'clock to
morrow morning throughout the coun
try, S. J. Konenkamp, international
president, said tonight. It was estimated
that 60,000 or more telegraph and tele
phone workers would be affected, and
he expressed himself as satisfied with
the outlook.
in announcing that there was no
change in the situation and no re
course was left but to strike, Mr.
Konenkamp said more lockouts by the
Western Union Telegraph company had
taken place today, bringing the total
for the last three days to 2915 union
workers. He said that as a result of
the strike and lockouts in the south
eastern quarter of the country, the
Western Union has resorted to the
"suitcase route" for delivery of mes
sages subject, to indefinite delay, ac
cording to his reports from Wash
ington. Executive Conncll Meets.
Action by the senate or the lower
house would have no effect on the
strike, he said, referring to passage of
the Kellogg wire bill In the senate
today.
There were no additions of com
panies signing the agreement with the
union, except the Montgomery Tele
phone & Telegraph company of Hilla
boro, I1L, Mr. Konenkamp said. The
Federal Telegraph comply, operating
on the Pacific coast, signed last night,
he said.
The executive council of the union
met tonight to go over final details
to putting the strike into effect to
morrow. Outlook Held Favorable.
Mr. Konenkamp's statement tonight
was as follows:
"I'm satisfied with the outlook for
tomorrow. There is no reason to ex
pect any change until the strike be
comes effective. With the telegraph
workers it is a question of whether
they shall enjoy the rights that other
workers enjoy, or if the anti-union

SHIPBUILDERS WIN
FULL SURRENDER
Hurley Throws Up Foreign
Contract Authority.
FOREIGN BUSINESS POSSIBLE
Embargo on Builders Is to Be
Lifted at Once.
CHAMBERLAIN QUERY HITS
Indication of Possible Losses to
Shipyards Through Board's Atti
tude Brings Surprise to All.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, June 10. The complete surren
der of all authority of the shipping
board over foreign contracts offered to
American yards made by Chairman Ed
ward N. Hurley, of the board, at to
days hearing before the commerce
committee of the senate, was almost as
much of a surprise to Mr. Hurley as to
the members of the committee.
It was plain to be seen that Chair
man Hurley had not come before the
committee with any intention of aban-.
doning the board's asserted right to ap
prove or reject foreign contracts, but
he became lost In the crossfire of trou
blesome though at times courteous
questions. He had jockeyed himself
into an uncomfortable position by of
fering as excuse for the board's atti
tude the fact that the government had
on hand about $75,000,000 worth of ma
terials which it wished to dispose of to
American yards.
Chamberlains Query Hits.
"Don't you think," asked Senator
Chamberlain, "that there would be
greater economic loss to the country if
the American shipyards should be
forced to close down than there would
be if the government lost $75,000,000
in salvage?"
"We are not closing down yards," Mr.
Hurley answered.
'But," said Senator Chamberlain,
"they will close down in the next 0
or 60 days If they cannot take tho out
side contracts."
Chairman Hurley did not seem dis
posed to argue this point, and a ques
tion from Senator Edge, of New Jersey,
immediately afterward was the one
which drove him Into agreeing to lift
the ban. Senator Edge's question car
ried the insinuation thatlhe board's at
titude seemed but little else than an at
tempt to hold up the American ship
yards to pay the government's own
price for t.ie left-over materials.
Fall Surrender Follows.
This brought the unexpected answer
from the chairman of the shipping
board that he would lift the embargo on
the builders without delay. 'Senator
Jones, chairman of the committee, was

CONGRESS ACTS FAST
TO END WIRE CONTROL
SENATE PASSES UNANIMOUSLY
BILL FOR REPEAL OF LAW.
Burleson Officials Discount Posi
bilily That Strike Will Hamper
Communication.
WASHINGTON. June 10. On the eve
of the nation-wide telegrapher's strike,
both bodies of congress today acted
to end quickly government control of
the country's wire system.
The senate passed unanimously the
bill for repeal "forthwith" of the law
authorizing federal jurisdiction over
telephone, telephone, cable and radio
lines, while the house interstate com
merce committee agreed to report
legislation ending government wire
control June 30, next.
No move was made today by the
postoffice department touching the
situation and officials said that none
would be made, the return of wire
operation having left the situation to
the handling of private managements.
At the same time officials lately re
sponsible for the conduct of the tele
gra, . systems were inclined to dis
count the possibility that communica
tion would be seriously hampered by
the strike of telegraph operators.
The threatened walkout of electrical
workers was said to have more serious
possibilities.
The senate in adopting the repeal
bill approved an amendment to con
tinue present telephone rates 90 days
or until the tariffs can be adjusted by
state commissions.
Democratic and republican senators
joined in support of the repeal bill, of
which Senator Kellogg, republican, of
Minnesota, is the author, and also in
criticism of 'the taking over of the
wires and the results of government
operation. Debate In the senate was
brief and the bill was passed with
out a record vote. It now goes to the
house interstate commerce commit
tee, which will meet again Thursday
with a view to prompt action.
.Many senators in today's debate de
clared that no necessity required tak
ing over of the wires and that govern
ment operation had been unsatisfac
tory.
I think a very great mistake was
made when the wires were taken
over," said Senator Pomerene. demo
crat, or umo. No good came from it
biiu mucn narm came. The more
quickly they can be turned back the
better. There was no necessity for
taking them over. Government opera-
lion, to some extent at least, has
served to destroy morale of the com
panies.
In addition to the amendment con
tinuing existing toll and telephone ex
cnange rates tor 30 days, the senate
also adopted an amendment by Senator
feneppard, democrat, of Texas, provid
ing imi government control should not
be a defense by the wire companies
