f rnE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 2. 1919. f CONGRESS GATHERS, BUT LITTLE IS DDK Galleries and Many Seats in Both Houses Deserted. NOTE IS DISAPPOINTING Washington Surprised to Learn That President Is Writing Message From Sickroom. . OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Dec. 1. Washington looked on today at one of the Quietest and most uneventful opening days of congress in history. Perhaps fatigued by the long strain over the peace treaty, which was laid aside only ten days agoj but 55 senators appeared to an swer to rollcall. This was in distinct contrast to- the last week of the old session, when the complete vote of the senate, was cast on several of the peace treaty votes for the first time in almost a quarter of a century. There was an absence of al of that hurry and bustle which usually marks an opening day, because another prec edent was broken in the failure of the executive departments," through the secretary of the treasury, to have their estimates of expenses for the fiscal year ready to submit when congress met.' These came out later in the afternoon, however. Callerles Are- Deserted. Probably because the people became so satiated with congress during the debates on the peace treaty the public galleries were practically empty. The house did the unusual thing of settling down to business on the first day and working through out the, afternoon taking up the unanimous consent calendar and pass ing bills with exceptional rapidity. Tomorrow is looked forward to as a precedent-breaking day in the his tory of the present administration be cause it will be the first time that .Mr. Wilson, when at home, has failed to appear personally before a joint session of the senate and the house to read his message. In this connection it was interest ing to persons residing here to read that Mr. Wilson had personally writ ten the message that is to be sub mitted tomorrow. It has been understood for some days that the message was being written by the cabinet, and those who follow such matters were looking to find much of the style of Franklin K. Lane, secretary of the interior, in tomorrow's state papers. lilac Clowe in Touch. Mr. Lane ranks as the literary man of the president's family and as the one man who knows something about almost everything that is going on within this government. He writes """good newspaper style and has fre quently declared that anything worth giving out for publication is worth writing in a way that it will be read. President Wilson's health has been the subject of renewed discussion in Washington the last few days, and the general opinionappears to be that his condition from 'the first was al most as critical as report had it. One fact commented upon most is that, jilthough daily reports have , been made of his rapid recovery, there is nothing yet to indicate that he has ever stood upon his feet. What little time he spends out of - bed he is in an invalid's chair and is wheeled about the White House in this manner. This is what may have given rise to the rumor that he had suffered paralysis of the less, which was de nied by Secretary Tumulty, who, how ever, like other White House attaches, continues to give rather-vague reports on Mr. Wilson's actual condition. Note ThouKbt Too Mild. Those who have been in close touch with the state department since the controversy has been raging relative to the arrest of William O. Jenkins, consular agent at Puebla. Mexico, ex pressed disappointment at .what they termed the mild tone . of Secretary Lansing's second note to" the Carrania government, made Riiblic today. It had been the view that .this note would be a sharp, terse ultimatum, something like the historic message which Roosevelt sent to Morocco when he demanded the release of the American citizen Pericardis in this language: "We want Pericardis alive or P.ai suli dead," the latter being the bandit who was holding Pericardis for ran som. . Instead, this second Lansing note, it was commented, is not even a de mand, it is 2000 words long and closes with these words: "The government of the United States must renew its request for the immediate release of Consular Agent Jenkins from further imprisonment." It is, therefore, only a request, ac cording to the view here, and the mildest form of request possible, be cause a note of this character which i fails to fix a time limit for action on the part of the offending government is classed as "pussyfoot" diplomacy. That such a weak note should have been dispatched after 100,000 Amer ican soldiers have been mobilized on' the Mexican border appears to be what is perplexing students of the situation. Conference In Quiet. The meeting of President Wilson's new industrial conference here was about as eventful, as the annual com ing together of the directors of a bank. The conference which was scheduled to be called to order at 2:30 o'clock did not get started until 3. One-half hour was used in getting acquainted. ab the end of which time former Attorney-General Wickersham was addressing Julius Rosenwald. Chicago philanthropist, as Julius, and Herbert Hoover, former federal food administrator, was coming to be known among his fellows as just plain Herbert. rsmpn Chased Out. . The first order of business was to throw out all of the newspaper men. about 30 of whom had beaten the del egates to the conference place at the Pan-American building. - Secretary Wilson, of the department of labor, was the first member of the conference to appear on the scene and he was visibly disturbed when he found an army of newspaper men comfortably seated and ready to take note of the proceedings. "I am afraid I am going to have to disturb you gentlemen after a while," ' he said apologetically, as if fearful he would offend. He was then called upon to tell why the newspaper . re porters and the public were to be ex cluded, to which he made this ex planation: "It is to give the members of the . conference freedom of thought and expression in arriv.:,ag at some def inite basis. Some members will give' early expression to ideas regarding which they may change their minds. This makes us tree to do this without . being accused of wavering."

LAKE TRACT PURCHASED VANCOUVER DISTRICT OF 11,- 000 ACRES TO BE RECLAIMED. Some Objection Encountered to Draining Bodies of Water. . Small Farms Planned. VANCOUVER, Wash., bee. 1. (Spe cial) The De Long tract of land on Shallowpool lake, just "north of Van couver lake, was bought today by H E. McKenney and associates, who are to pay J123.000. The land was bought on option some time ago, and the op tion was taken, up today with the payment of $15,000. The deal also includes the late J. A. Munday, the Buckmeier and Howland farms, all bordering on the lake, which is in cluded in the proposed diking district. The district to be diked will re claim about 11,000 acres. It is held that the land so reclaimed will go to the owners of the uplands, and has been so held by a federal court in It will cost about 55 an acre to pay for the diking. Steps have already been taken to drain Vancouver and Shallowpool lakes, and some opposition has arisen for various reasons. Some contend that Vancouver lake would make a great harbor if dredged out and a canal dredged deep enough for ves sels to enter from Columbia river. Some fruit growers in the vicinity allege that the large body of water has a great effect in keeping the frost from injuring their fruit trees In the spring. On the other handr those in favor of reclaiming the land show that there will be many small farms de veloped on the rich land now the bottom of the lakes, and that this will outweigh any opposition to the plan. P0INDEXTER ASSAILS BOOM (Continued From First Page.) of importance this afternoon except Poindexter's speech. Democratic dele gates and delegates to the non-partisan league state convention held con ferences to discuss candidates for state and national offices. South Da kota normally carries a strong repub lican majority. It was expected that the three parties would announce to night the probable slates to be placed before conventions tomorrow. The republican slate was consid ered practically decided upon this afternoon, according to state leaders. Governor Peter Norbeck is the only candidate mentioned for United States senator. Senator Ed S. Johnson will probably be renominated by the democrats. For gover-nor, it Is ex pected that the republicans will nominate W. P. McMaster, of Tank ton, and the democrats wil; select W. H. Hawes of Wolsey. It was con sidered equally certain that Sjuih Dakota's three congressmen, to re publicans and one democrat, would be renominated. C. A. Ohristopher son. Sioux Falls, in the first district. And Royal C. Johnson. Aberdeen, in the second district, are republicans. The -democratic congressman is Harry L. Gandy of Rapid City. Republican state leaders have an nounced that they were "giving serious consideration" to a sugges tion offered by representatives of "certain presidential candidates," that the republican state convention defer the indorsement of any candidate for president, but permit all candidates to have their names placed as inde pendents on the March primary ba.1 lot so that indorsement may be made by direct popular vote. Convention Held . Biased. Senator Poindexter gave to the press an official copy - of his speech at the mass meeting. , The text reads in part as follows: "In choosing a candidate for presi dent it is most essential that the Deo pie should know the principles of government for which he stands. It also is important that there should be a full opportunity for considera tion and discussion of records, issues and persons. The actual contest seems to be beginning in South Da- PRINCE OF WALES AND SUITE. kota under a law which is supposed to submit the issues to the people to be decided by a direct or prefer ence vote for president on March 23, 1920. "A proposal convention is also pro vided for and it is claimed by Gen eral Wood's managers that the con vention had been pledged to General Wood before it convenes and any consideration by it, either of candi dates or issues seems to be precluded. Q.uentiona Are Submitted. "I have a big' regard for General Wood personally. I know that he was a friend of Roosevelt, but there are many friends of Roosevelt whose position on the paramount problems or government I do not know. The law of South Dakota makes joint de bate compulsory. I submit to Gen eral Wood these questions: "Did you approve or support the great principles of government for which Roosevelt stood? "Did you vote for his election, or advocate his policies, either privately or publicly? "What is your policy as to fulfilling our international obligations and pro tecting the lawful rights of Ameri can citizens in Mexico? "Are you In favor of an immediate declaration of peace with Germany, and of at once repealing war legis lation and restoring the American government to a peace basis? "Are you for or against the Ameri can union with Europe under the movement of a league of nations? War Tax Attitude Asked. "Do you favor the continuance of war taxes and if not, what system would you substitute for them? "What means do you ernnn ' tr any, for protecting essential indus tries, such as coal mining and trans portation from bolshevistic interfer ences? "You are reported to have said: 'I thoroughly approve of our countnr'n reception of various devastated areas in Europe for the purpose of recon struction." "What particular take over and to what extent would you expend the public funds in this work? "How many American be required? Would you accent a manriat. fn. Turkey or Armenia?

Governor Norbeck re ferred to the democratic administra tion as "the party which kept us out of cars for our livestock." Representative Rnval r "tv, of Aberdeen, who served in the ranks oi r ranee, assailed the war depart ment for alleged reckless expendi tures and waste and devoted some time to criticism of the non-partisan league which, he said, "has fallen Into the hands of bolshevists." There were rumors late tonight that the republican delegates had not been able to compromise differ ences regarding candidates for state offices, although it was said that one bump was ironed out bv a decision to nominate Carl Gunderson of Mitchell, for lieutenant-governor. One faction sought Gunderson's nomina tion for governor. 'n-r.!.rii,,n league delegates announced that they would nominate Mark P. Bates of Letcher, for governor.

PLEAS ARE ENTERED IN NEWBERRY CASE Michigan Senator swer Indictments Will An Monday. BENCH WARRANT ISSUED All of Indicted Persons Will Be Re quired to Appear in Court On or Before Monday. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Dec 1. Unexpected progress was made today by federal officers in preparing the way for an early trial of the 13 men. including United States Senator Truman H. Newberry, who were in dicted by a federal grand Jury here late Saturday on charges of cor ruption, fraud and conspiracy in con nection 'with the Newberry election campaign In 1918. Service was secured on a number of those indicted and first arraignments were held before Federal Judge C. W. Sessions today, half a dozen of the defendants ap pearing in court. Something of a sensation was caused today when two of those cited in the true bills, but whose names did not appear in the list announced Sat urday, came before Judge Sessions and pleaded guilty to counts con tained in the indictments. These were William E. Rice, a Grand Rapids printer, who pleaded guilty to con spiracy and was released under bond of $1000. and Allie K. Moore, formerly a Grand Rapids newspaperman, and later a publisher at Marquette, Mich., who pleaded guilty - to four of six counts. Several Appear VolantarUy. Several others of the 121 whose names had been withheld pending service of the warrants, correctly susDected they had been named in the indictment and appeared volun tarily in court today. They included George E. Rogers, former Grand Rapids alderman; "George K. Welch, Kent county manager of the New berry campaign: Charles Carpenter, a former member of the Grand Rapids health board, and Roman F. Gloche ski, said to have been employed at a salary of $150 a month to work during the Newberry campaign among, the Polish residents of Grand Rapids. All pleaded not guilty. Glocheski was held in $2500 bail and the others In $1000 each. That a bench warrant had been is sued for Senator Newberry was indi cated today when it was said that Clerk Charles Potter of the federal court had furnished United States Marshall O'Conner with one for each of the 135 persons indicted. Speculation as to whether Senator Newberry would attempt to resist service of a warrant against him was disposed of when James O. Murfin, former circuit judge of Detroit, now of the Newberry counsel, announced today that the senator would appear in court next Monday to answer the indictment.. In some quarters it had been believed that Senator Newberry could resist service, if he desired, on the ground of senatorial immunity. Prompt Trials Wanted. Arraignment of the remainder of the defendants is expected to spread over the entire week, but all those named in the indictments. Judge Ses sions has announced, must appear in court on or before next Monday. Trial of the cases will not be permitted to drag. Judge Sessions indicated to day, stating that an effort would b made to complete them before the 1920 presidential election. Judge Sessions is expected to preside. A formidable array of legal talent is expected to appear when the trials begin. According to belief here, this will be early in January.- The data probably will be fixed next Monday. WASHINGTON, Dec. 1. .Senator Newberry of Michigan, who arrived today for the opening of congress, would not comment on his indictment in Michigan. As Senator Newberry entered the chamber shortly before the senate convened, republican senators crowd ed to his side and shook hands with him. Simultaneously with the legal pro ceedings at Grand Rapids an effort will be made in the senate to hasten action on the resolution of Senator Pomerene, democrat, Ohio, for a sena torial investigation of the Ford-Newberry contest in Michigan. This resolution, introduced several months ago, was laid aside at the opening of the Ford . libel suit at Mount Clemens and never has been called up. It now is In the hands of the expenditures committee. Thorough Inquiry Contemplated. Senator Pomerene's resolution cov ers the primaries as well as the sen- j atorial election itself, and contem plates inquiry into the campaign ex penditures of Senator Newberry and of Henry Ford, his democratic oppo nent. Many of the men indicted are ex pected to have their individual at torneys, but Senator Newberry, it is said, has offered the services of his attorneys to all the defendants. A number of deputy United States marshals are expected to be occupied all of this week, from Lake Superior to the Ohio border, serving bench warrants for those indicted. The dep uties have been given authority to accept bail, but the amount in each case is indorsed on the warrant by Judge Sessions. None of those named in the indictments would discuss the case, with the exception of Paul H King, Newberry s campaign mana ger, who declared at petroit yester day that the investigation and action of the grand jury were political. .

AUTO VICTIM IS KILLED CHARLES CRAIGHEAD CATTGHT BETWEEN CARS IX DARK. ' Motorist Caught While Mending Tire on Road, but County Official Is Exonerated. EUGENE. Or., Dec. 1. (Special.) Charles Craighead, aged 45 years, of oCttage Grove, died at Mercy hospital In Eugene early today as sf result of injuries received Saturday night when a car driven by George H. Waggoner, deputy county surveyor, struck him as he and John Rice, also of Cottage Grove, were working with a tire on a car owned by Rice. The accident happened on the Pacific highway, five miles south of Eugene. Not until he was within a few feet of the men working with the tire did he see them, Waggoner said, and he barely had time to turn out to avoid a collision with the car, but Craighead was caught between the two ma chines. An autopsy revealed the fact that three of Craighead's ribs were broken and that one of them had penetrated his left lung. The coroner's jurv later declared that the accident was unavoidable because of the darkness and fixed no responsibility. Upon information furnished by a sou of Waggoner, who rode into town in Rice's car to assist the injured man. Rice was arrested on the charge of unlawful possession of liquor.
