Warned to Be Careful.
CIRCULARS HELD 'STRONG'
Heart of Concern. Exercised Gen

ity, Says Ex-Assistant.
CHICAGO, Nov. 4. S. C. Pandolfo,
rrpeatedly warned his advertisement
writers to bo careful to state only
the truth in matter they prepared
for circulation. Jack Hammond, wit
ness in the trial of 13 Pan Motor
company officials, accused of mis
using the mails, testified today. Ham
mond was for a time assistant ad
vertising manager of the Pan com
pany. Pandolfo, however, allowed some
material to go out in circular form
of which Hammond had disapproved
as being "too strong."
lie told how he had sent an office
boy to Pandolfo with a notation on
the circular in question, calling at
tention to the offending paragraph
which Pandolfo nevertheless allowed
to be printed.
TeatimoiiT Stricken Oat.
The testimony was stricken from
the records on the ground that the
witness could not be sure that Pan
dolfo got the message.
The paragraph he objected to was:
"It (the Pan company) is already
building that wonderful farm trac
tor tank tread that, like its motor
cars, created a big sensation at the
automobile and tractor shows held
throughout the country."
Mr. Bowers, attorney for the com
pany, also suggested some modifica
tions or changes, the witness said,
in another paragraph published in the
circular part of a resolution adopt
ed by tho Commercial club of St.
Cloud. It follows:
'"Resolved, that the Commercial club
of St. Cloud. Minn., recommend to the
entire citizenship of the city that
they cease to do business with any
foreign enterprise, rating company
or commercial agency antagonistic to
the Pan Motor company, or S. C.
Pandolfo, its president."
, Resolution Held Genuine.
Evidence shows that the resolution
was actually made by the Commercial
l-i u b.
The Gopher State Advertising bu
reau was only a name, Hammond said,
used by the Pan company to secure
from newspapers the discount al
lowed advertising agencies.
He also testified that Pandolfo ex
ercised general supervision over the
publication of Pan Siftings, the com
pany advertising organ, but that he
did not on all occasions know the con
tents of all articles appearing there
in. W. It. Flint of Peoria, 111., who,
during part of 1318 was in charge
of administration of the blue sky
laws of Illinois, identified the appli
cation of the Pan company for a
licenso to sell Pan company stock
in Illinois.
NO BABIES, NO MARRIAGE
CHILDLESS TJXIOX MOCKERY,
SAYS COLUMBIA PROFESSOR.
Happiness of Man and Woman Sec
ondary Robust Youngsters
Prime Purpose of WeddiDg.
CHICAGO, Nov. 4. Happiness of
man and woman is only a secondary
affair in marriage, the prime pur
pose of which is to produce robust
children. Professor William J. Durant
of Columbia university said in a
lecture at the Sinai social center here
last night. "Where there are no chil
dren there is no marriage," he added.
Pree love Is impossible, the pro
fessor said, because conquests of a
man are praised by other men, "while
if a woman has had one free love
affair she is held in ridicule and be
littled by her associates."
"Most men now marry after they
have become incapable of love," the
professor continued, "and then comes
your divorce.
"Courts say that divorces are due
to cruelty, drunkenness and half a
dozen other things, but they are all
wrong. The three fundamental rea
sons for divorce are:
"First The natural vanity of both
sexes.
"Second Psychological incompati
bility. "Third Lack of children."
Raid on Multnomah Dance

follows a thrilling "raid" on a Mult

on Halloween night.
Club members and police depart

into the revellers. But the "raid"
thrilled even the plotters, for where
they expected to see a squad of uni
formed men swarming into the ball
room they saw instead a belligerent
appearing bunch of officers of the
moral squad, headed by Lieutenant
Harvey Thatcher.
"Lord, what's up?" whispered one
clubman to another.
"Something's wrong," whispered the
other nervously. "This wasn't the
plan."
Thatcher produced an imposing
document charging everything on the
crime calendar against the clubmen.
Explanation was about to pour forth,
when the colored waitress shrieked
for attention. Officer Schulpius had
shyly pulled a bottle of moonshine
from his pocket and "discovered" it
again propped against a punch bowl.
"Do you know who put this here?"
sternly asked the officer.
" 'Deed Ah don't, sah," nervously
responded the waitress, turning as
pale as possible. "'Deed Ah don't."
Multnomah clubmen turned pale,
too, at sight of the pint flask
whether from fear or longing could
not be determined.
"Well, we'll just take this all
along," growled Thatcher in his best
bass voice. "And you, too," turning
to the chairman of the dance commit
tee. The chairman, though he had
been in on the plotting, was in a
d.Tzen condition and quite prepared to
spend the night In durance. The
chairman was "under arrest" till the
door was reached, and the grins of
the "raiders" gave him cause for a
sigh of relief.
Multnomah members still are won
dering whether wisely, to affirm their
full knowledge of the Halloween
thrill or honestly to own up to the
scary feeling they experienced.

GUY TALBOT IMPROVING
Operation Performed on Portland
Man in Chicago Success.
Guy W. Talbot, president of the
Portland Gas & Coke company, who
underwent an operation for the re
moval of his gall bladder at Presby
terian hospital, Chicago, yesterday
bore the ordeal admirably and is in
excellent condition to. recover, ac
cording to a message received by his
secretary, George J-. Myers of this
city.
Filed by John A. Laing, vice-
president of the company, who went
to Chicago when word was received
of Mr. Talbot's critical illness, the
reassuring telegram is as follows:
"The operation has been completed,
with no complications. The gall blad
der was removed. Mr .Talbot is in
excellent condition and everybody is
greatly relieved."
Early this year Mr. Talbot was op
erated upon twice in Portland for
similar trouble. During a visit to
New York he suffered a recurrence
of the ailment, and while on his way
home was halted at Chicago, where
he has since been under the care
of specialists and where the major
operation was declared necessary.
The operation was performed by Dr.
A. D. Bevan, formerly of Portland.

Robbers Must Reckon With
Inventor.
Modest Individual Explains Mys
tery of Brlsht Lla-ht Seen by
Hose City I'arli Residents.
PREFERRING to remain incognito,
for the nonce, Portland's deliverer
from the scourge of footpads has an
nounced himself and his singular dis
covery. With the imaginative faculty
of the late E. A. Poe, and the calm,
scientific certainty of T. A. Edison, he
retails his invention in a recent let
ter to the editor and modestly con
ceals him identity under the matter-of-fact
nom de plume, ""Inventor."
The other night many residents of
Rose City Park, a peaceful suburb
of trim and conscious bungalows, in
terspersed with verdant cow pastures,
were vastly excited and concerned
over certain intermittent and myster
ious flashes that illuminated the
cloudy prospect and that gave no
earthly account of themselves or their
origin. It has remained for "In
ventor" to allay the public mind by
a confession.
Moreover, he discloses a solicitude
for the police bureau, for the con
venience and well-being of its blue
coats, that is touching to a degree
and that would be even more so were
it not for the gradual and subtle
suspicion that the hidden genius is
toying with the sharp edge of sar
casm. At any rate, here he goes:
"The brilliant light observed by the
Rose City Parkers," writes the anony
mous genius, "is due to my testing
out a new protection from hold-up
men. I have perfected a 'chemical
which can be compressed into a small
pellet about the size of a pea. When
dropped from the hand and coming
into contact with the pavement or
the ground it gives out an intense
light of great brilliance. My experi
ments were successful, far beyond my
expectations. I consider the inven
tion perfected and ready for the mar
ket." Here Is the sublime Juncture of Poe
and Edison, the wizard of fancy and
the necromancer of fact a blended
"bird" of a scheme that renders
nightly pedestrianism as safe and
happy as it was in the dear old days
before the war. Listen to him:
"The idea is that a. pellet of this
chemical be carried in the palm of
the hand and upon meeting a high
wayman it may be dropped without
any perceptible movement, immedi
ately creating a brilliant light which
will last for a half hour or longer.
Fancy pauses at this. The potent
pellet would seem to have accom-
lished Its design. One hears the pat
ter and thud of the retreating bro
gans of Dick Turpin the modern. But
not so. "Inventor" has another card
style shown here is one of
new "Mallory Hats" for
young men.
up his sleeve. The fertility of his
scheme is scarcely scratched.
"The brilliancy of the illumination
makes it entirely safe," he assures,
"for policemen observing the signal
to approach without danger. The
fact that it will give forth light for
a period of half an hour or more will
give the nearest policeman plenty of
time to secure necessary reinforce
ments and reach the scene of the
hold-up in time to assist the victim
io his residence. It also will enable
the hold-up artists to recognize the
uniform and not molest the police
men." What's he trying to do? "Kid" a
policeman? Or Is it possible that,
beneath this verbiage and really lies
hidden an invention as epochal and
efficacious as that of the Chinese
stink-bomb?
