THE MOUSING- OREGOMAN, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1920 DRIVE FOR WESTERN IS 16 States Represented at Washington Conference. RECLAMATION Z FEDERAL CREDIT SOUGHT Large Appropriations From Con gress at This Time Unlikely, Hence Plan to Get Results. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Washington. Jan. 13. Representatives of 16 western 'reclamation states gathering; here today will hear at their opening- meeting tomorrow morning: that some more ingenious method of obtaining- reclamation funds must be devised than the direct de mand for a congressional appropria tion of $250,000,000. The western delegates, headed by Qovernor D. W. Davis of Idaho come here committed to a campaign for the passage of a bill appropriating; that amount of money which was Intro duced in the last session of congress by Senator Jones of Washington. It was reported favorably from the sen ate committee on Irrigation by Senator McXary of Oregon. Senators and representatives from the arid land states have been sound ing the sentiment of congress and find that it will be dl.'flcult to obtain large appropriations for any new pub lic works. With the government fac ing a deficit of (3,000.000,000 the coming fiscal year, new public proj ects of any character calling for ad ditional financing are regarded as beyond consideration. Federal Credit Sought. But thi does not mean that the de velopmen: sought by the west will Li defeated. Senator McNary, who is chairman of the senate committee on irrigation conferred this afternoon with the Oregon delegation to the conference and a plan was devisied which is likely to be submitted to the gathering by Whitney L. Boise of Portland, who is here representing the governor of Oregon. This plan s to ask the fe ral gov ernment to lend its credit to the states to Lhe e: it o- the sum needed. The federal government would issue the bonds and the states would guar antee the payment of the interest. This would aid the s'ates in a vast ui. 'ertaking which otherwise might be diftlc . if not impossible. This, of course, leaves many details to be worked out. Securities Doubly Strong. The bonds, thus backed by both thi federal government and by the states, would be doubly strong securities. Percy A. Cupper, state engineer of Oregon, and Henry McKinney of Baker, the other Oregon delegate, at tended the conference with Senator McNar;- and favored this plan as the best way to meet the serious objec tions of congress to further large ap propriations for new developmen.. The conference will be called to or der by Senatir McNary tomorrow morning, and after stating the pur poses, he will turn the gavel over to Governor Javls of Idaho. Governor Louis F. Hart heads the Washington state delegation. ' which also includes E. F. Blaine,' Seattle; Judge Ralph Coffman, EUensburg, and R. K. Tiffany of Yakima. Besides Governor- Davis, represent ing Idaho, the state's delegation In cludes Frank W. Brown, secretary to the governor and secretary of . "e Western States Reclamation associa tion; W. G. Swendsen, state reclama tion commissioner; R. E. Shepherd, of Jerome, manager of the Twin Falls North Side Land & Water Co.; Joel Priest of Boise, ubont for the Oregon Short Line, and C. E. Arney of Spo kane, assistant s. crvlsor of agricul ture for the Norther.. Pacific railroad. Sonth Has Proposition. . The southern commercial congress has a preposition to offer to the west ern states delegates, which Is that the west , abandon the fight for federal money to be used exclusively on west' ern reclamation projects and Join with the south in a fight for appropriations to combln; reclamation in the south with reclamation in the west. The south w ..tJ to reclaim swamp .and cut over lands through drainage proj ects. This proposal, which would rally the southern delegations in congress to the support of such a general plan, is likely to be laid be ire the western states conference tomorrow or Thurs day. .

By the capture of Dvinsk. -fter a prelimi: , operation begun Jinu: 1, considerable rolling stock was taken, which the T.tt and Poles Are sharing equally with ther booty. One hundred captured freight cars and several engines have passed through Riga for Poland. ' The lack of rolling stock ha:, de layed the offensive, owing to the dif ficulty of brlngln up supplies and ammunition through the snow. In a statement to the Associated Press the Lettish foreign minister. M. Meirmwitch, declared that the only object of the offensive was to retake Latgalia. which is claimed as part of Letvia-- Confirming the report that negotiations had been undertaken with the bolshevik! at Dorpat, he said that Letvia had endeavored to ef fect an amicable settlement of the Latgalia question before resorting to military measures. Letvia offered, if the bolshevik! would withdraw from Latgalia, to give assurances that Russia would not be attacked. The bolshevik!' refused, and the of fensive was begun before a conclu sion with E3thonia would enable the bolshevik! to divert the troops from the Esthonian to the Lettish front. "We will not consider peace " with the . bolshevikl,' said the minister, "until our frontier Is cleared and some form of democratic government is established in Russia." Letvia would continue strictly to conform with the allied policy, he said. Preparatory to taking the offensive. Letvia endeavored to strengthen her internal .position by determined ef forts to stamp out the spreading bol shevik agitation. Several hundred bolshevik agents were rounded up. principally In Riga and Libau and many of them were summarily dealt with. The prisoners Included Anton Ketteroff, a bolshevik courier, on his way from Moscow to New York. There was a false bottom in his valise which contained documents outlining a scheme for nw bolshevik activi ties in America. Hidden in the heels of his shoes the authorities found diamonds valued at 3,000,000 rubles. WOMEN' URGED TO AVOID EX TREMES IN DRESS.

DENVER SPEECH UPHELD Chairman of Republican Aational Committee Reiterates Statement Relative to Solicitation. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Jan. 13. (Special.) In reply to criticism of his Denver address offered by Carter N. Glass, secretary of the federal treas ury. Will H. Hays, chairman of the republican national committee, has sent a telegram to the democratic of ficial defending certain statements to Which Mr. Glass took exception and explaining others upon which there appears to have been some misunder standing. Mr. Hays says In his tele gram that a copy of the Denver ad dress has been mailed to Mr. Glass. With the declaration that "this is no time for little things, for petty jealousies, carping criticisms, pulllngs or haulings, either between ourselves or against the opposition," Mr. Havs expresses the hope that each party "make it is business to see which can go the farther in developing plans and executing purposes'for the welfare of the people and the glory of the na tion." Speech la Explained. His telegram to Mr. Glass follows: '"Hon. Carter Glass. Secretarv of the Treasury, Washington. D. C. My Dear Mr. Secretary: Arriving here just now I find your telegram of yesterday. I am pleased to mail you a copy of my Denver speech, which I will be glad to have you read. I note your inquiry as to what I said touching upon the misuse of governmental instruments' and functions by the democratic or ganization for political purposes. "I did not say that you had fur nished the names of all buyers of liberty bonds for the use of the demo cratic committee as a mailing list. What I did say then, and what I now repeat, is that the democratic admin istration sent out thousands of tons of propaganda to. liberty bond buyers, food card signers, war workers, etc.. during the paper shortage and while limiting the use of paper by Ae press, and that the large part of it was democratic political propaganda and that all of it was paid for by the taxpayers' money. "I did say that names were being procured by the democratic organiza tion by the hundreds of thousands from every available source and that thousands of letters were being sent out by it daily, soliciting money, bv an office force numbering from 200 to 300, spending hundreds of dollars daily and that the New York World had published a statement that the democratic national committee was proposing to raise a fund of 310,000. 000. Bank Ilrport Cited. "What I did not say then, but to which I now call your attention, is that I am reliably informed the dem ocratic committee has even resorted to drawing drafts on bankers in whose banks government funds are deposited, telegraphing such bankers that they had already drawn such drafts. I respectfully recommend that you make an inquiry into this situa tion. "'; "What I further said there, and which I now urge" upon you, is that 'there: has not been and will not be any geography, political or physical, in the patriotism of this country. It is no time for little things, for petty jealousies, carping criticisms, pull ings or haulings, either between our selves or against the opposition. We attribute honesty of purpose to the democrats, and our message fo them is that each party- make it its busi ness to see which can go the farther in developing plans and executing purposes for the welfare of the peo ple and the glory of the nation. Let this be the real contest between po litical parties in the country. '"I hope you, with your great Influ ence, will join with us in an effort to make the coming campaign a contest between two' great political parties, whose members recognize that there should be two great parties in this country and that both should be strong and virile, and recognize that it is through political activity that an individual can best apply his pa triotism in times of peace.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. Jan. 13. Declaring that he was calling out all electrical workers in the employ ,of the Utah Light & Power company in Salt Lake City, Ogden and Pocatello, H. G. Greene of San Francisco, inter national representative of the elec trical workers' union, issued a gen eral strike call here" late today, ef fective immediately. Some of the men have already quit work, Greene announced. All workers affected by the order are members of local 57 of the union. The cause of the strike order, ac cording to Greene, is that' the com pany refused to meet with him and other union officials when they Bought to open negotiations to obtain higher wages for the men. Company officials declared they had refused to treat with Greene or the other union officials because- they had positive knowledge the men were satisfied with salaries and condi tions. . t .A walkout would seriously hamper electric power and traffic on electrical lines in this district, it was said. MEDALS CAUSE OF STORM (Continued From First Pag-e.) Gallivan said, so as to determine why some recommendations were acted upon favorably and others disre gardeS. Medal Is Cheapened. "The disingulshed service medal has been cheapened i...d certainly ridiculed by the bold and brazen man ner In which it has been passed out to. those who belong to the elect," said Mr. Gallivan. "It has even been used to placate those who have been removed to make way for some one else. "The reading of the citations in awarding the distinguished service medal to several chair officers of the ' general staff who never left Wash ington during the war. if believed, would certainly impress one that the war was fought with red Ink at ma hogany desks. "The kaiser." continued Mr. Galli van, "with some spark of apprecia tion for consistency vet alive. ala " "Me und Gott.' Not so your chief of staff. United States army, Pey ton C. March, who sees no reasons for Including 'Gott.' . It is simply me with him. "In France there was a board of awards of medals that sat In Chau mont and looked with easy favor on giving awards to their friends and with bjlind eyes and deaf ears to rec ommendations of those without the pale." Wood Case Cited. ' "The failure to send Major-General Leonard Wood overseas in command of troops was a 'case of International notoriety,- " Mr. Gallivan said, adding that General Wood "was never given an important active command during the war," but "to placate public opin ion something must be done." Representative Dewalt, democrat. Pennsylvania, accused Representative Gallivan of "singling General March out for attack" and praised the chief of staff for his work. Mr. -Dewalt said he had "yet to hear from an au thentic or authoritative source any thing that would bring condemnation of General March from any man," adding that It was unfair for Gallivan to attack officers who were unable to "meet their accuser face to face and have a decent chance to reply." Estelle Gray Prefers Babe to Priceless Violin. V luffing- Tlolinixt Says Her Fire-Montha-Old Youngster Is Her Greatest Treasure. BY JOSEPH MACQUEEN. ESTELLE GRAY, violinist, who, with Mischa Lhevinne, pianist and accompanist, two American-born artists, appears in concert in the public auditorium tomorrow night, January 15, sa.id yesterday at the Multnomah hotel, that she has 'one treasure that she values more than anything else in all the world, her baby. Now, everybody who has had any thing to do with star violinists know that usually these folk of tempera ment look on their Cremona violins as priceless articles gifts direct from heaven. Estelle Gray has one valu able Cremona violin that was fash ioned in the year 1715. "Guess what my one treasure Is?" Estelle Gray, asked solemnly. I "bit" hook, sinker and all and said, rashly: "Ah, I know. I used to play the violin myself, about 90 years ago or so at least it seems that time. Your one great treasure, less than heaven itself. Is your Cremona violin." "Wrong," she laughed, and Mr. Lhevinne laughed also. "My priceless treasure," said Estelle Gray, softly, "is our five-months-old baby. He is the dearest baby, the best in all the world." "Then, In private life, you are T' "Mrs. Mischa Lhevinne, at your service," answered the young violin star. It Beems that the' Gray-Lhevinne home is called Heart Craft Court, and is located on Sunny Cove, Ala meda, right across the Golden Gate from San Francisco. It is a rustic home built of logs, with' the bark left on, and there is a courtyard in the center. There the Gray-Lhevinnes rest each summer when the concert season is concluded, and where they renew acquaintance with Baby Lhe vinne and his nurse. Baby Lehvinne is called "Viro." Mrs. Lhevinne was born in San Jose, Cal., and .her husband In New York city. Mrs. Lhevinne is a graduate of the College of the Pacific, and she also stud ed four years in the Uni versity of California extension course.

She has toured In concert In different parts of Europe, and came home to America on a visit about January, 1914. "Since then I have remained in con cert work in America. It has been the safest and best for a woman, dur ing the recent troubled years," said young Mrs. Lhevinne. "What about your musical career, Mr. Lhevinne?" was asked of that pianist. "This is my wife's interview," said Mr. Lhevinne, smiling. Dr. C. Harold Palmer Gets "Shot in the Arm." Lieutenant Hmry Boyd's Souvenir - Aah Tray Proves t Be Shell With, "Kicks In It. DR. C.

PARTY'S RECORD IS CITED Whatever Is Offered Men Is Of fered Women Also, Says Leader at San Francisco Meet. (Continued From First Pate.) equally sacred and sacredly equal. The republican women in the country con stitute one-half of the party's mem bership. They are not to be separat ed or segregated, but assimilated and amalgamated. Right Alone Must Rale. "There Is no twilight zone In poli tics. Right is right and wrong Is wrong, and the same strict standards of morals, equity and justice must obtain as in any private business or professional matter. "Let us have the patriotism of Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roose velt not a patriotism which moves us only when an enemy is at our gates, but a patriotism which moves us every day to realize what we owe to the country in which we live, which moves us to discharge that debt by aiding in every way we can to make and keep conditions right in America and in America first. "We have thought much in the late months of Theodore Roosevelt. I was with him on the morning he received the word of Quen'n's death I was with him the next day at Saratoga, when with his heart literally crushed, he interpolated in a speech he was reading: 'Roosevelt's Words Recalled. " 'The finest, the bravest, the best of our young men have sprung eager ly forward to face death for the sake of a high Ideal; and thereby they may have brought home to us the great truth that life consists of more than easy-going pleasure and more than hard, conscienceless, brutal striving after purely material success; that while we must rightly care for the body and the things of the body, yet that such care leads nowhere unless we also have thought for our own souls and the souls of our brothers. " 'When these gallant boys, on the golden crest of life, gladly face death for the sake of an ideal, shall not we who Btay behind, who have not been found worthy of the grand adventure; shall not we in our turn try to shape our lives so to make in this country the Ideal which In our hearts we ac knowledge and In the actual worka day business of our world' come a little nearer together and make this coun try a better place to live in for these men and the women who sent these men to battle, and for fhe children who' are to come after them?' Party's Position Clear. "To none does this truth come home stronger than to republicans. The re publican party stood during the war: First, for the use of every possible means of winning the war; second, for a peace with victory only; and, third, for a sane preparation for the solu tion of the problems of peace. "With all our power we will strive to prevent the further spread of so cialism and set this nation's feet once more firmly on the path of progress and along ways which liberty and or der must ever guard and preserve. "The republican party recognizes that labor constitutes the country's chief asset. In the crisis through which we have passed the labor of the country was its salvation. Labor's Risst Assvred. "The labor of this country is enti tled to and will receive fair represen tation in all the councils of the nation. We will have Just remedial legislation for the betterment of this great group of our population at all times, not only because it is their due, but be cause by Justice always we can pre vent the Insidious Influence of the criminal element of the I. W. W. from taking hold in the ranks of real labor. And that criminal element, organized or unorganized, called I. W. W. or anything else, that goes about this country seeking whom It may destroy, that thing is a traitor to this country nothing else. and should be treated as such. "The . special aesslon of congress just closed saved to the nation nearly a billion dollars, and If nothing else had been accomplished by the repub lican control except this. It would warrant an overwhelming republican victory next year." POINDEXTER CHALLENGE OUT Senator Dares General Wood to Meet Him in Debate. PIERRE, S. D., Jan. 13.
