LIQUOR CLUB RAIDED
BREWER SAYS PROHIBITION
INSULTS INTELLIGENCE.
$50 l ine Imposed; 200 Quarts of
Beer and Wine and 3 Kegs to
Be Emptied in Sewer.
A booze club, organized by numer
ous thirsty gentlemen with Ernest de
Vennis, former anti-prohibition lec
turer who believes his own argu
ments, as brewer, was broken up in
a raid on the home of De Vennis, 614
Front street, by Deputy Sheriffs
Christof ferson, Sehirmer and Kendall,
Patrolman JUppen and four revenue
officers Wednesday afternoon. Sev
eral hundred quarts of home-brewed
beer and wine were confiscated.
De Vennis pleaded guilty when tak
en before District Judge Bell and was
fined $50. The-liquor will be poured
into the courthouse sewer pipes.
Approximately 150 quarts of beer,
60 quarts of wine and three five-gallon
kegs of wine were taken to the
sheriff's office in a truck. De Vennis
occupies rooms above a second-hand
store owned by himself and William
Marien at Front and Caruthers
streets. Charts illustrative of "The
Development of the Races," a subject
about which he is enthusiastic, lined
the walls. Pantry and. parlor were
storerooms for beer and wine.
De Vennis told the arresting offi
cers that a club had been formed in
which all the members "'chipped in"
and paid for the making of the
liquor by De Vennis. He said he
made it only for use among the club
members. He was asked about a re
cent sale to a stool pigeon.
"Yes, a traitor was brought into
our midst," he orated, and admitted
selling a bottle of beer for 50 cents,
and a bottle of wine for $1.50. He
entertained the officers with excerpts
from his lectures on prohibition,
which he termed "an insult to in
telligence." At the Theaters.

I at the Heilig Wednesday night In the
I story of "Madame Butterfly," in beau
jtiful fashion by singers well known to
. Portland. The production, a dramatic
arrangement of the opera, was given
under the auspices of the Monday
Musical club.
Adah Losh Rose, as the little but
terfly who gave herself to the Ameri
can naval officer, gave a fine inter
pretation of the role. Extravagantly
joyous when all seemed bright, cheer
fully optimistic when sadness loomed,
her artistry evoked deserved ap
plause. As Suzuki, Jane Burns Albert showed
a deep understanding of the character
of the companion of Butterfly. Silent
ly sympathetic when her heart was
full of misgivings, she provided the
background which revealed clearly the
tragedy that slowly unraveled in the
big scenes. In her song, "One Fine
Day." she scored the triumph of the
piece.
Muri. as played by Lulu Dahl Miller,
was a cheery geisha and happy In her
participation in the celebration of.
Butterfly.
As Mrs. Pinkerton, Mrs. A. D. Frost
performed capably in a difficult sit
uation. Little Leona Mignon Frost as
Baby Trouble was a charming mem
ber of the cast. As the American con
sul, Wajter Jenkins gave excellent
support, as did Paul Petri, cast as
Pinkerton. Natalie Harrison danced
gracefully in an interpretative dance.
Splendid musical Support was given
by the Monday Musical orchestra, di
rected by Mrs. E. L. Knight. The Mon
day Musical chorus sang enchant
ingly in a twilight scene. In the first
scene members of the Monday Musical
Dramatic class were cast in minor '
roles. Mrs. Anton Giebisch. president
or the Monday Musical club, made a
short talk describing the work of the
club.
SPECULATORS ALSO ARE HELD
LARGELY RESPONSIBLE.
Dealers Not Justified in Raising
Prices, Says President of
Equalization Board.
SAX FRANCISCO, Oct. 30. Curtail
ment oT consumption and elimination
of competition and speculation are
the only satisfactory methods by
which a shortage In sugar and sub
sequent high prices may be averted
when the sugar equalization board
goes out of existence with the ratify
ing of the peace treaty, says George
A. Zabrlskie, president of the Board.
A review of the situation is con
tained in a letter Mr. Zabrlskie has
forwarded to Attorney General Pal
mer, the contents of which were made
public here last night by the local of
ficers of the board.
When the prospective shortage first
presented itself last July "it appeared
to us that there were two alterna
tive policies," Mr. Zabrlskie's letter
says. One of these was "to continue
absolute control measures by enter
ing into negotiations with European
powers , for the Joint purchase of the
dominant crop,- that is, of Cuba, and
the practical allocation o-f the bal
p.nce of the world's market to certain
governments, as was done last year."
An alternate policy, Mr. Zabrlskie
declared, was to "cease all govern
mental control of sugar and permit
the establishment of absolute free
trade, and this might result in a large
increase in- price, at least temporar
ily." Lack of legislation and authority
now means that neither of the two
policies may be carried out, Mr. Za
brlskie says. He adds 'that there ts
"undoubtedly a large amount of spec
ulation and even hoarding in process.
all in anticipation of further rises in
sugar prices."
Local sugar shortages recently have
been due, according to Mr. Zabrlskie,
"not so much to the shortage of es
sential supplies as to a considerable
amount of hoarding, largely among
consumers, and a certain amount of
speculation on the part of dealers.
The probable shortage of sugar
next year, Mr. Zabrlskie continues,
may cause dealers to increase their
prices, "but there should be no justi
fication for this," he says, "as the
wholesale price will not advance."
Mr. Zabrlskie advises that American
sugar consumption for the year 1919
will be approximately 4.000.00U tons.
This, he says, is 350,000 tons more
than any consumption hitherto known
in the nation's history.
ENGLISH TO BE STRESSED
SPECIAL WEEK SET ASIDE IN
PORTLAND SCHOOLS.
Crusade Begun to Inculcate Cor
rect Use of Language and
Fight Loose Diction.
English-speaking week, an innova
tion in school circles, will be observed
in Portland and Oregon during the
first week 'in November, and with
particular emphasis in the several
high schools of the city.
The setting aside of one week In
which extra caution is to be taken in
writing and speaking English, that
the lesson thus engendered may re
main permanently, has been in vogue
of late throughout America, and vari
ous large cities and many states have
adopted it. The announcement that
Oregon is to take up the crusade is
held to be in accordance with the best
policies of modern educators.
"English-speaking week," taid D. A.
Grout, -city superintendent of schools,
"has no apparent national backing.
but has been intermittently in effect
all over the country. During my visit
to Chicago last epring I found the
city schools observing the week.
"Its purpose, briefly stated, is to
inculcate not only the ideal of correct
English, but unusual care In the em
ployment of the language. It is a
crusade against loose diction and
carelessness in speech and writing, a
fight against all the minor inaccura
cies of grammar and diction in our
daily conversation."

AIRPLANE MAKERS
APPEAL TO PUBLIC
Congress Withholds Money
and Industry Dwindles.
ALLIES SPEEDING UP
Army Held 12 Months Behind Now
in Aircraft Plants Converted
to Other Uses.
NEW YORK, Oct. 30. (Special.)
The Manufacturers' Aircraft associa
ton yesterday issued the following
statement:
"The failure of congress to make
an emergency appropriation of $15,
000,000 for army aircraft construc
tion, deprives the nation of equip
ment for national defense which is
greatly needed at once, and virtually
serves notice on the airplane and air
plane engine industry of the United
States to go out of business.
"Through the failure of congress to
make reasonable moderate appropria
tions year by year for the early de
velopment of aeronautics it cost us
$1,000,000,000 to create an industry
under pressure of war. If this In
dustry is permitted to disintegrate en
tirely its resuscitation will cost an
additional enormous sum and It will
require from a year to a year and a
half to produce even the peace-time
defense needs of the air service period.
"Since the signing of the armistice,
when the government canceled out
standing aircraft contracts to the
total of $1,000,000,000, the aircraft in
dustry has been 90 per cent liquidated.
Whether the remaining 10 per cent
disappears by spring depends either
on the immediate reconsideration of
the $16,000,000 appropriation or the
adoption of some fixed policy which
shall inspire the manufacturers with
sufficient confidence to continue to
maintain their plants at an enormous
loss.
Conaequeneee May be Grave.
"Upon congressional decision will
rest consequences which may be of
grave concern to the country.
"The Manufacturers' Aircraft asso
ciation represented a capital invest
ment of $100.000, 000. The . airplane
and engine plants of its 20 members,
when the war ended, gave employ
ment to upwards of 250,000 persons.
Today 25 per cent of the enembership
has absolutely dljappeared and' the
capital of the remaining units has
been diverted so far as to leave so
meager an establishment that, even
were congress to approve the emer
gency appropriation before the close
of this session, it would require at
least 12 months for the army air
service to obtain new equipment.
"The status of the American air
plane and engine business is Illus
trated by the condition of the three
largest members of the Manufactur
ers Aircraft association. The Cur
tiss Aeroplane and Motor incorpora
tion, which includes also in the Cur
ties group, the Burgess company of
Marblehead, Mass., and the Curtlss
Engineering company of Garden City.
N. Y., has diminished 80 to 95 per
cent In its production capacity.
Whereas on November 11. 1918. 17.850
men were employed there are now
only 760 on the rolls.
Ureat Plant Is Idle.
"The Great North Elmwood street
plant in Buffalo, which embraced
1.220.000 square feet is idle. The
Austin, Niagara, and Bradley street
plants in Buffalo have been aban
doned. The plant at Hammondsport,
N. Y., has been closed. - The Burgess
plant is inoperative. The Churchill
street plant at Buffalo is working on
engines and the plant of the Curtiss
Engineering company is engaged in
commercial designing and construc
tion. "The L. W. F. Engineering com
pany at College Point, L. I., has laid
off 90 per cent of the 2200 aircraft
workers employed when the armistice
was signed. Fifty per cent of this
plant, which Is one of the most com
plete airplane units in the country,
has been diverted on long-time con
tracts to cabinet work. Unless con
structive action is taken the remain
ing 50 per cent, which has been held
open for aircraft development will
also be diverted.
"The Wright-Martin Aircraft cor
poration, manufacturers of the His-pano-Suiza
engine, on November 11,
1918, employed 15.008 men.
"With the exception of a small en
gineering staff, this number has been
wiped out. The great plant at New
Brunswick, N. J., has been practically
closed and the government-owned
plant at Long Island City has been
completely closed.
Skilled Men Are Clone.
"The aircraft manufacturers have
waited for 12 months. One by one
they have dismissed their skilled me
chanics and disbanded their techni
cal staffs. They have dismantled
their plants for aircraft production
and have taken on the building of
phonograph cases, furniture, automo
bile and tractor parts, toy airplanes
and wheelbarrows.
"They have endeavored to develop
commercial types of airplanes to a
limited extent, but their assets being
in fairly liquid form they have oeen
under the constant temptation to
abandon aviation entirely.
"If we who originated the practi
cal airplane do not care to maintain
or develop the art. and this in the
face of intense aerial activity abroad,
we might as well, as a nation, relin
quish all idea of initiative in either
commercial or military aeronautics
and trust to Great Britain to protect
us in the air in the future, just as we
trusted to her and our other asso
ciates in the war with Germany.
"Great Britain has appropriated
$330,000,000 and France $220,000,000
for aviation. It is understood that
Japan has appropriated in excess of
$200,000,00, yet America refuses to ap
propriate even $15,000,000 for urgent
aircraft construction

Of visitors the 10th annual Portland
Food show opened Wednesday night at
the armory. Although no show has

giving out samples of their products
to visitors. This Is the plan of the
pancake flour companies and dainty
pancakes were popular last night. A
number of other manufacturers have
fitted up their booths to show some
interesting step in the turning out
of their product, such as the auto
matic wrapping of a loaf of bread
or the sealing of a can of eoffee.
Each afternoon and evening there
will be band music in the exhibitors'
hall, and each evening there will be a
dance in the ballroom on the second

GOVERNOR RAPS HEARST
Publisher Accused of Checking
Suppression of Unrest.
NEW YORK, Oct, 30. After Will
iam Randolph Hearst, publisher, had
declined a challenge from Governor
Smith to engage in public debate, the
governor appeared last night in Car
negie hall and charged that the pub
lisher's papers 'had attacked him be
cause he had refused to let Mr. Hearst
tell him what to do as chief executive
of this state.
Governor Smith charged that Hearst
newspapers were adding to the na
tion's difficulty In suppressing the
"spirit of unrest" and were making It
difficult for the governor to handle
the situation.
At the close resolutions were adopt
ed recommending appointment of .a
"citizens' fair-play committee" of
1000 to direct public opinion against
opinions expressed by Mr Hearst's
newspapers and to "protect public
servants and cttlsenn generally from
Mr. Hearst's methods of attack."

HALLOWEEN PRANKS DIE TO
MORROW NIGHT.
Anchor on Gate, Uwnmower
Parked in Basement, Advice Is
sued to Straight-Laced Elders.
Tonight It will be well for
canny householders to make the front
gate fast, to park the neglected lawn
mower safely away In its basement
refuge, and to clear the premises for
action. Because It is a traditional
certainty that action there will be
lots of It. It is the night of Hal
loween. Here's a tip to questers after the
occult: Almost any suburban street
will be well supplied with giggling
goblins and tittering wraiths to
night. An analysis of their strict
reliability will call for speedy legs
and staunch wind. They won't stand
for Inspection. As Ichabod Crane of
Sleepy Hollow saw the headless horse
man, so will amused Portland folk see
disembodied heads sauntering about
In golden glow and be reminded of
Thanksgiving and pumpkin pie.
And. speaking about pumpkins, the
marketmen say there is a shortage of
that minted marvel of the garden.
Folks didn't plant the pie-fruit as in
ordinary seasons, and the season wss
a laggard one for pumpkins, anyway.
But it won't be a pumpklnless Hal
loween, by a long shot. When the
clans of boys and girls rally for the
frolic there will be found any number
of pumpkins grown In the reliable
old home garden, specially for the oc
casion. Constipation
