ceived yesterday from Representative
"W. C. TIawley saying that all orders in
connection with establishment of rates

LIFT ON BREAD DEFENDED
ACTION" I1KLATKI) BUT XECKS
SARY, SAY LOCAL BAKLHS.
Irie Heretofore Too Low, Consid
ering; Flour Market, lcclare
Bread Maker.
Portland bakers declare that the price
advance on bread is belated action made
necessary by the higher cost of every
thing that goes into production, and
that wholesale prices are lower here
than in Seattle and Tacoma. Next Mon
day the 10-cent loaf will retail at rl
cen ts. It is further asserted that the
new price effective next Monday is be
low the st a ndn rds establ ished by the
United States grain corporation, based
on materia 1 and labor costs. E. Franz,
manager of the United States bakery,
speaking for the bakers, said:
"The published statement indicates
that the price of bread is going up
when the price of flour is going down.
The bakers have not followed the flour
market and the increased cost of labor.
The prie of bread in Portland has
been below the proper price and there
fore could not follow the flour market.
According to the table put out by the
i grain corporation the y-cent loaf is
based on flour at $10 per barrel. At
present we are below the flour market.
Bread is wholesaling in Tacoma at 92
cents a pound, in Seattle at 10 cents.
"Wages increased 2-S per cent May 1,
lard has advanced 33 1-3 per cent in
the last few months, milk has advanced
almost 30 per cent, and every it em of
expense has increased, including that
of machinery used in the bakeries,
which has to be replaced from time to
time. But there has been no advance
In bread prices. Actually t here was a
reduction of a cent a loaf May 15, due
to competition, when the price was
dropped from I to S cents a loaf.
"The "bakers have estahlished a repu
tation for quality products in Portland
and now have reached a point where
either the quality must be lowered or
the price increased. We do not believe
that the public wants the former and
are confident when the situation i
understood they will realize that the
price is as low as justified."
Commission Ielays Action Pending
Opinion Requested From
Attorney-General.
Protests aeainst making 6 o'clock
end the working day of woman ele
vator operators were heard yesterday
at the meeting of the industrial welfare
commission, when about a dozen rep
resentatives of the Portland Building
Owners and Managers' association at
tended the session.
Adoption of conference reports set
ting a higher minimum wa-ge and
specifying working hours for canning,
manufacturing, personal service, laun
dry, telephone and telegraph and office
occupations was completed, but three
were held up those on under-gradu-ate
nurses, mercantile establishments
and public housekeeping.
W. P. Olds of Olds. Wortman & King
stated his objections to the proposed
ruling providing 48 hours of work on a
nine-nour day basis. The merchant
said that his clerks are now working
eight hours and 20 minutes, but the I
total amounts to a 50-hour week. The1
chlpf advantage of this is that the
lunch hours are adjusted to overlap. I
which could not be done without creat
ing what might be termed a ragged
day under the altered regulations.
Klevator Problem IUr UKnrd.
Discussion of the elevator operators
day was led by James J. Sayer of the
Portland Building Owners' and Man
agers' association.
If girls are prohibited from work
ing after 6 o'clock." he declared, "build
ings now employing only women can
not abide by the law unless they create
another shift and hire a man for night
work. The present evening work is
lisrht and is no hardship. Hours vary
from six and a half to eight and a half
for a working day.
"The average jnnn will not stay on
an elevator job, and we don't want to
use cripples entirely because many of
them are slow mentally, inefficient and
unreliable in case of emergency. Build
ing ope ra tors would, therefore, prefer
tr-at the limit be made 11 o'clock and
the work be put on a public house
keeping basis, such as granted hotels."
Strict Supervinlon t'rKed.
Dean Vinc-ent of the Northwestern
bank building put forth the point that
he could see no moral hazard in em
ploying women in buildings under
strict supervision and with janitors and
nichtwatchmen.
Captain James O. Convill added to
this that few men would be attracted
to the work if women operators could
be obtained at $60 per month. Other
speakers were Charles Holhrook of the
Wilcox and Stevens buildings. H. G.
Starkweather of the Broadway build
ing and Forrest Fisher of the Lewis
building.
No action was taken by the commis
sion, which will first seek advice from
Attorney-General Brown. The meeting
adjourned until 2 P. M. Fr i da y , b y
which time it is hoped an opinion will
have been rerei ved from Sa lem.

ROBBER QUICKLY CAUGHT

CONFESSES.
Money Taken From Crippled I'ed
dler Who Fell Asleep; Cigarette
in Mouth Starts Fire.
Clever detective work by Police In
spector Swennes yesterday resulted in
the arrest of Oorgre Newby, aged 30, on
a charge of burglary. An hour after
his arrest Newby confessed to having
robbed J. K. Hill, a crippled vegetable
peddler, of $165.
Hill, who lives at the Maryland hotel.
25H4 Kirst street, fell asleep shortly
after 2 o'clock ysterday morning: with
a lighted cigarette between his lips. A
few minuts later hotel occupants broke
down the door to his room to save him
from a fire which started from the cig
arette. Xewby admitted that he helped to
rescue Hill. While assisting in straight
ening up the room he discovered Hill's
pocketbook beneath the dresser, where
Hill had hidden it.
Newby stripped it of currency and
silver, amounting to $165, and left it
where Hill had hidden it.
Inspector Swennes. who went to make
an investigation, sat on the window sill.
He caught sight of the pocketbook.
It was the only point in the room from
which one could see the purse. He
concluded that the thief had seen the
purse from the same position.
Hill described the person who sat
at the wRidow after the fire occurred.
Swennes began a search. As he
reached the police station he came upon
Inspector Jlorak, who had three men
under arrest for having opium and yen
shee in their possession: George Newby
fitted the description of the thief. He
was subjected to a severe cross-examination
by Swennes and admitted he
was the person who robbed Hill.
The charge against Newby that of
having opium in his possession was
immediately changed to that of bur
glary, and he is held in the city jail
waiting grand jury action.

Mock Trials and Minstrel Show
Held; Sermon on Mount Kal
nier Impressive Kvent.
Nearly 6000 feet up the side of Mount
Kainier, 150 members of the Portland
Mazama club are enjoying one of the
most successful outings they have ever
held. Miss Harriet K. Monroe, vice
president of the organization, returned
yesterday from the national park with
news of the party.
Camp was pitched on Mazama ridge
near Sluiskin falls the past vt?k and
will be continued there until the re
turn is made on August 17. I-ast Fri
day and Saturday a party of 17 went to
the summit under the leadership of Kd
Pet-erson and A. Hoy a Williams.
Fifty-eight others went on the offi
cial climb Sunday.
Campfires have been entertaining. A
mock trial with Richard Montague and
W. M. Daniels as attorneys was staged.
The girls camp gave an entertainment
Saturday, which was followed by a
minstrel show. Dr. J. Duncan Spaeth
read an original poem at the bonfire
Sunday night. Phoebe Fin ley recited,
Mrs. V. P. Franklin gave her reminis
cences of Robert Louis Stevenson and
Dr. H. B. Torrey made an address.
One of the most impressive events
of the week was the Sunday morning
sermon on the side of the mountain.
Dr. Henry Marcotte, formerly of Port
land, but now of Kansas City, preached.
Some of the Mazamas climbed Pinnacle
peak last week.
Miss Monroe said the road to Para
dise valley is crowded with motorists
and that Sunday alone ifdl machines
were let through th-e controls at way
stations. Over the week end 2000
guests were registered at Paradise
Inn.
ZENO LFCAS, Spanish war veteran, is
quite willing to leave the selling of
liquor to professional bootleggers. He
tried his hand at the Illicit game yes
terday and found that it doesn't pav.
Bui even though he was enveloped for
a time in storm clouds, the gentle hand
of fate and a generous amount of rood
luck helped him to locate the silver
lining that brought him his liberty.
"Zeno Lucas, you are charged with
bootlegging," droned the clerk.
"I'm guilty, your honor," replied the
prisoner as he looked tip in the fie of
Dick Deich, acting police judge.
In an instant, both judge and pris
oner gasped with astonishment.
"H'um," mused the judge, "this isn't
what I'd call a happy reunion."
And then it became known that Judge
Deich and Lucas were "buddies" in the
Philippines during the Spanish war.
They had munched hardtack and
tramped together through the malaria
ridden swamps of that country. They
had gone over together and returned
together.
Both were silent for several moments
as memories of '98 stirred within them.
Lucas hung his head a bit lower. Judge
Deich showed plainly that he had an
unpleasant task before him.
The testimony developed that Patrol
man Zwisler, a new "oop," had learned
in some manner that Lucas had a pal
Ion of wine at his home. Representing
himself a close friend of a friend of
Lucas, he sought to purchase the wine
Lucas, believing he was doing a friend
a good turn, sold the entire gallon for
$5. The wine, he said, had belonged to
his brother, who used it during his
illness, but who died last year.
The court, remembering the long
marches and hardships of the Philip
pines, gave Lucas the greatest possible
len iency. He was allowed to go his
way with a 10 fine.
Sammy Goldstein was sitting on a
truck along Front street watching the
driver and helpers pitch watermelons
to the pavement. His mouth watered
as he watched closely, hoping against
hop that one would drop. For then he
would have a feast. But there was no
such luck for Sammy.
"Go on, there. Kid. beat it," shouted
the driver, but Sammy clung to his post
of vantage, his hungry eyes on the
melons.
A whip whirled through the air and
caught Sam on the legs. .Again the
whip zipped and caught him full across
the face. He appeared with a badly
swollen face in police court yesterday
as complainant against Carl Schnable,
the driver.
The court gave Schnable a severe
lecture and fined him $50.
Bob Coleman, a negro, and May How
ard, a white woman, were given heavy
sentences in pol ice court yesterday on
vagrancy charges. They were found in
a north end hotel. Coleman drew a
$500 fine and 180 days in jail. The
wo ill an was assessed $250 and sentenced
to 90 days in jail. Both filed notices of
appeal.
T.. T. Michael was fined $15 in police
court for permitting a minor to play in
his poolroom. Henry Closs, the minor,
was fined $5. Michael drew the small
fine because the ml nor looked to be
older than the proprietor.
"I've pleaded with judges many times
with tears in my"eys to have you sent
to jail, and now I have you right where
I want you," were the words of Judge
Deich as a cold chill ran through Oliver
Steele, an old offender, charged with
being drunk.
But Steele, like on al' other occasions,
put up such a persuasive argument that
the sentence was suspended on condi
tion that Steele remain sober" for six
months. The prisoner promised to do
his best.

VETERAN ACTS STRANGELY
Wounded Man, in Law's Net, Re
lieved to Be Shell Shock SufTerer.
Fear that Melvin Pennoyer, an over
seas veteran, might be Buffering from
fhell shock caused Police Judge Deich
yesterday to postpone action until a
more thorough investijrat ion may be
made today. The younj ttoldier Is un
der arrest for carrying concealed
weapons.
He was arrested early yesterday by
ratrolman Whitehead. Pennoyer's an
swers were evasive and rambling. He
told the court that an army officer had
threatened to "get" him after he left
the service and he was carrying the re
volver for self-protection. It con
tained one shell.
It developed yesterday that Pennoyer
obtained employment as a switchboard
operator at Liberty temple, but after
working for two days he wandered off
without giving any account of himself.
He wears a wound stripe, and knowing
that he saw active service at the front
in France. Judge Deich said Pennoyer
may possibly be suffering from a slight
mental derangement.
