TTniversal Military Training Not

t "WASHINGTON.
Feb. 24. Universal
training will be omitted
from the house army reorganization
dui ana oe me suDject 01 Bcpaiie
$ legislation at the next session of con-
irress. beginning in December. This
-was agreed upon tonight by repub
ilican leaders and Chairman Kahn of
Tithe house military committee, after
ttVfo days of informal conferences.
The agreement is looked upon aJ
eliminating any possibility of fur-
i4ier action in the house which might
b'g interpreted as a stand on universal
- training in the coming presidential
r'mpaign and will leave the party's
' attitude a possible subject for consid
-wiAtion in framing the platform at
" the" national convention in June.
"Under the agreement Chairman
tK.lhn will appoint a special sub-corn-Crnittee
friendly to universal training
draft the training bill. The meas
ure. however, will not be presented
, until after thoroughly investigating
Xute cost, economic and industrial
'effects of calling thousands of youths
" away from productive activities and
'kindred questions. After such in
quiry, the agreement provides that
i the bill as separate legislation will
'be assured prompt house considers
-lion, and not be subjected to slow
tdea-th by remaining on the calendar.
f . Final approval of the agreement is
' " to be given by a majority of the
fhliiitary committee, which recently
Tadopted universal military training
-in principle as a part of the future
I military policy of the country. This
.approval, however, is regarded as
Cnly perfunctory.
-Universal military training will
rot be and has not been sidetracked."
declared Mr. Kahn tonight. "Under
the agreement with the house leaders
and in view of the attitude of house
i-'Drembers, I think that separate legis
lation is the only practical course."
The recent action of the democrat
ic caucus opposing universal train-
r-iug, and the open opposition of many
(..republicans, particularly those of the
middle western agricultural states,
had made - passage of any training
r legislation extremely unlikely prior
Mo reaching an agreement tonight.

GUARD'S KISS IS SEEN
Continued From Firt ParM
Angel, who was a domestic at the
iawley home, said that Willard was
. Hood to his wife.
Mrs. Hawley Called Faultfinder.
"Mrs. Hawley changed her clothes
four or five times a day," said the
witness, "and every time I would go
into the room, the clothes would be
on the 'floor. Mrs. Hawley had a
bell at the head of her bed and every
morning she would have me open the
duor for the dog and cat and they i treatment because of her charges and
did not have one or two silk dresses
being made."
Mrs. W. S. Bennett said she had
been to the Hawley house frequently
and that Willard's attitude had been
so affectionate toward his wife that
the witness had remarked about it.
She had noticed that Marjorie neg
lected her baby.
"She said she would like to see
Wlllan get drunk and smdke and
chew, and then she would call him a
man," said Mrs. Bennett.
Dismissal Motloa la Lost.
Judge Bagiey this afternoon over
ruled another motion of the defense
to dismiss the case, the same cause
being presented as formerly that Mar
jorie had charged the defendant with
degeneracy and that a divorce could
not be granted on the testimony of an
accomplice.
When W. P. Hawley Sr. resumed
hia testimony under cross-examina
tion this morning he was asked by
C. D. Latourette If he had done all be
honorably cquld to bring about a
reconciliation of the young people be
fore the papers were filed.
"Yes." replied Mr. Hawley. "I did
not use money, as I saw that was
what was wanted. After the original
complaint was filed I told my attor
neys I was willing to settle the case
in a proper manner, and if the divorce
should be given to Willard I would
obligate myself to pay Marjorie $150
a month so long as she should remain
single, and that I would create a trust
fund of 100,000 for the baby and
Mrs. Hawley and I would take the
child and adopt her."
"The term fifty-fifty would not
necessarily mean half of Willard's
property or money, would It?"
Split Declared Nearly Half.
"It would split it nearly in the
center, I think," was the reply.
"Marjorie never had money enough
to buy lawyers and detectives, did
sher queried Latourette.
I do not think any of us have
money enough to buy lawyers." said
Mr. Hawley, and the spectators tit
tered. "If I should go down to your
Dank tomorrow morning, Mr. Latou
rette, and say that I wanted you to go
nrty-ntty with me, what would yo
tninKr
"Well. then. I will ask you this
question. Suppose Willard had said
to ner, 'Angel Wings, or Angel Doll
or whatever he called her. 'here is a
deed to this house or here is $1000 in
bonds, do you think she would have
been satisfied?". -
"No, on account of her attitude.
don't think she would."
Mr. Hawley -said on re-direct ex
amination that Marjorie had been h
son's wife and the mother of his child
and that he. did not -want to see he
turned out into the world without
comfort, even after she had made
awrm charges" against willard.
"How do the clothes Marjorie is
wearing in court compare with those
that she has?" asked Latourette..
Poor Clothes Called Joke.
"It's a joke," declared the witness.
There is no comparison at all. I have
seen her wearing silk dresses and
play around the floor with the dog
ana tne dog would tear the silk dress.
and I believe she ' is wearing this
dress for the effect she thinks it will
nave in the case.
For the first time since the case
started Marjorie shed tears upon
reierence to ner clothes.
Mr. Hawley said that after the
amended complaint was filed that he
wanted his son to come into court
and clear his name of the charges
that Mr. Schuebel was reported to be
spreading.
"This little girl," said Mr. Latou
recie, referring to tne plaintiff, "was
to be turned out in the snow?"
"No. You know better than that.
Mr. Latourette. You were present at
the negotiations for a settlement,'
"Were you not considerably wrought
up over this case?"
"Wouldn't you, Mr. Latourette. if It
had been your son?" returned the
witness.
"I guess yourre right," said Latou
ette. "I guess I would."
Defease Makes New Move.
The defense in the Hawley divorce
case, filed a supplemental counter
claim or cross-complaint when court
opened this morning, charging Mar

"One day Phe asked me to go to
..arson's store after some bananas,
and I came back and went in the
l.nuse through the front door, instead
of through the back door. She told
me that slaves were supposed to come
in the back way and I quit. She al
ways refused to speak to me on the
street, thouph Mr. Hawley always
did, and every morning: I had to clean
up the kitchen after the dog: and cat
hud slept in the room."
"You do not feei kindly toward
Mrs. Hawley?" observed Air. Schue
bel. "I do not rte how I could, after the
way she treated me," returned the
witness, who said her mistress wrote
her a 10-pa?e letter and left it on the
tuble. giving- her instructions about
St hat to do around the house.
' Mrs. Nona Ferguson, who was the
X;rt domestic the Hawleys had after
fbey moved into the little house on
Main street, said that Mrs. Hawley
would always find fault with every
thing. PlalBtifra Habits Related.
"I was treated very nicely by Mr.
tiawiey, said tne witness, but Mrs.
Hawley did not treat me well at all.
Ne lay in bed until 11 o clock most
v? ry morning and would sometimes
have breakfast in bed. She left her
clothes on tbe floor and 1 would have

"Do you like Mrs. Hawley person

I should cay I don't." was the
tt.swer.
' Mr. Schuebel attempted to read to
Jlda McConnell a letter from Willard
r his wife, in which he wrote: "1 am
iad you let Ilda go. You did just
r.ght- She was no good and too
floppy, anyway. The letter had al
ready been introduced in evidence and
the court held the testimony was not
competent under cross-examination.
Mrs. Kred Gadke, who made all of
Marjorie's clothes except those she
bought In the stores, said she had
four dresses for the plaintiff when
the suit was filed.
"One had been there so long ehe
had forgotten about it aid Mrs.

that Willard was guilty of actions of
a criminal character.
It is stated in the cross-complaint
that the charges were made in the
presence of a great crowd of friends
and acquaintances of both parties
that they were false and malicious
and were made by the plaintiff with
the intent to degrade Willard In the
estimation of the public and to de
stroy entirely his reputation.
Upon the allegations of the cross-
complaint, the defense has asked for
n. decree, for the care and custody
of the baby and divesting the plain

The plaintiff filed an answer, un
der stipulation this afternoon, deny
ing every allegation in the cross
complaint.
Arguments against raising the cost
or street car rides were forgotten in
an instant yesterday at the meeting
or the housewives' council in the cen
tral library, when Mrs. E. B. Colwell,
secretary of the motion picture cen
sorship board took the floor. Although
Mrs. Colwell occupied about one-third
of the time taken up by E. M. Cousin
to discuss the street car company s
practices, she had half the gathering
on their feet firing questions and crit
icisms faster than the chairman
could handle them.
"I have the floor and I'll keep it
until I'm through with what I have
to say," she told Oscar Home of the
Central Labor council before she had
gone very far.
Federal Censorship Urged.
Mrs. Colwell described the board's
organization and that of the national
board. She said that 5 per cent of
the pictures do not go to this board
and there must be someone to run
these down. She advocated federal
censorship as a solution to the pres
ent problem. .
Mrs. Alexander Thompson asked:
that the defects in the present ordi
nance be pointed out In reply Mrs.
Colwell said the principal one is that
the board, being appointive, cannot
delegate authority to the viewers.
Mrs. F. J. Kane, who has made a
study of children's films, expressed
her opinion as being that "censorship
resolves itself into 'what is good for
my child is good for me, and what is
not good for my child is not good for
me.' " She went on to state the ex
hibitors claim there is no money in
children's pictures and for this reason
children must see principally those
Intended for adults.
Mention of the "Thirteenth Com
mandment," the film which was the
center of the recent conflict, brought
forth from Mr. Home criticism of the
board's judgment.
"Birth Film Is Barred
"If the board never does another
thing in two years," was the answer
he received from the speaker, "it can
at least be credited with keeping out
tbe film known as 'Birth
"Wasn't that shown here? demand
ed Home.
"No," was the snappy reply, "be
cause we had a board of censors to
keen it out"
As Home professed himself willing
to be shocked, Mrs. Colwell described
the picture. She declared that it net
ted the owner $11,000 in San Fran
cisco, where it ran ten days, showing
only to women and girls. "The own
er," Mrs. Colwell said, "had boasted
that he never showed it without hav
ing a trained nurse and an ambulance
handy to carry away the fainting
persons.
When we suggested cutting out
the portion showing the actual birth
of a child the producer told us we
would take the commercial value sf

Carfare Rise la Discussed.
The earlier part of the session was
given over to E. M. Cousin, ex-city
traffic examiner, who appeared at his
own request to speak ori the proposed
increase in carfare.
While I was authorized to get
facts and figures from the company's
books," he said. -"I was apparently
expected to keep them to myself. The
Portland Railway, Light & Power
company didn't want them, neither
did the public service commission.
The company wanted higher rates,
maybe to make the people so dissat
isfied that they would take over the
whole mess of junk, as was done in
Seattle.
One thing was certain, there was
an entire lack of public sentiment ex
pressed at the hearings, none of the
public took enough interest in pro
ceedings to be present. What the
company wanted was the only thing
given consideration not what the
public wanted."

Plans Short Visit and Early Return
to .ew York to Resume Aid

After a long absence from Portland,
her home city. Dr. Esther C. Lovejoy,
former health officer here and a
widely known club woman, returned
to this city yesterday for a visit of
perhaps 10 days, after which she will
go to California to tell there of the
work of the American Women's hos
pital overseas and eventually to New
York, now her headquarters.
"New York has been very (rood to
me." said Dr. Lovejoy last night, "but
it seems so good to be back in Port
land that I fain would stay. How
ever, it is necessary that I return for
a time to carry forward the great
work we have undertaken. Only to
day I received a letter, asking me to
continue my labors for one more
year after next June, at which time
my time was supposed to be my own
again after the long stretch of war
duty. Still, I cannot help feeling that
the situation in Europe is in part our
responsibility and that we should con
tinue to do our part in the work of
rehabilitation, especially as regards
the orphans of France. It would not
be surprising should I decide to give
another year of my life to it.

Self-Styled Public School Protec

Anti-vaccination forces, styling
themselves the Public School Protec
tive League, took definite steps to or
ganize and arrange financial support
for the league at a meeting held in
the assembly room of the Multnomah
hotel last night. Voluntary subscrip
tions were taken and talks were made
by several active 'advocates of the
league.
The most important action of the
meeting was the adoption of a reso
lution to circulate an initiative peti
tion for a measureto be passed on by
the people at the regular election in
the fall. The resolution is similar to
that recently adopted for the circu
lation of petitions in the state of Cal
ifornia and would provide that no
form of vaccination, inoculation or
other medication shall hereafter be
made a condition precedent in this
state for admission to or attendance
in any public school, college, universi
ty or other educational institution, or
for the employment of any person in
any public office or for the exercise
of any right, the performance of any
duty or the enjoyment of any privi
lege of this section be controlled or
limited by any other provision of this
constitution."
'Among the speakers. Junius V.
Ohmart and' Mrs. Helen Gray Drol
linger spoke at some length on the
subject of compulsory vaccination
from nearly alt' angles. Mr. Ohmart,
discussing the Oregon statutes, as
serted tha the board of health in
reality has no legislative power and
that the doctors are seeking, through
these regulations, to usurp legislative
power. He said test cases are futile,
and urged the need for new legislation
in any attempt to control the situa
tion. He denounced all legal author
ity for compulsory medical examina
tion or inspection in the public
schools.
The league has elected the follow

"GOOD FILMS" TO BE LISTED
Church Federation Arranges Ad
vance Service on Movies.
If you want to know in advance
whether there is any chance of find
ing yourself in a movie. and blushing
t some of the scenes, you will soon
be able to ask the Portland church
federation. . -
Announcement was made last night
t the February council meeting in
the chamber of commerce by Xorman
Coleman of the social and tndus-
rial betterment committee that his
group is now arranging to receive ad-
ance information on films to be
shown here and thus avoid the ques
tion of whether they are wholesome
r not. A number of citizens will then
be asked to view them with the cen
sors and from week to week a list of
the good pictures will be published.
We shall get much further with
cleaning up the movies," Mr. Coleman
declared, "through helping people to
the right use of them by telling them
of the good pictures."
Melvin G. winstock, formerly of the
People's Amusement company and
now of the Pathe exchange, informed
the gathering that exhibitors want
constructive and co-operative censor-
chip, and that all over the country
they are proposing to create a fund to
be used in prosecuting those making
or exhibiting indecent, obscene and
other morally destructive films.
"Censorship." he declared, "is nec
essary to keep out the illegitimate
man, who in one week can destroy the
constructive work that has taken
other producers a year to build up."
Rev. M. A. Christenson made the
point that the exhibitors here propose
to reduce the board to three members
and eliminate the women, but Win
stock replied that the third member
might easily be a woman.
The main busines last night of this
first big session since organization
of the federation last June was the
indorsement of a movement to raise

until they secured permanent locations.
0LC0TT FILES REQUEST
Extradition of Murder Suspect
From Canada Sought.
SALEM. Or., Feb. 24. (Special.)
Governor Olcott today made formal
request upon the president of the
United States to issue requisition
papers on the authorities of the prov
ince of Alberta, Canada, for the re
turn to Oregon of James H. McBain,
That Mary Etta Nelson, worth at
least $100,000 in her own name, "has
broken about every marriage tie or
vow," and has made his home a hell
instead of a heaven, a place to be
shunned rather than a spot where he
can seek rest and comfort, are the
accusations of Raymond P. Nelson,
her husband, who has neither prop
erty nor money and. whose income is
about 100 a month, in a divorce suit
started in the circuit court yesterday.
"The -only time I get out at night
is when she has a date with some
one," declares the husband, who goes
on to say that she has been his wife
in name only, that her conduct has
been "outrageous," that she is sloven
ly, quarrelsome and unfaithful.
"I have been a true, faithful and
loving husband to no purpose, as she
is so thoroughly bad it is impossible
to reform her," he concludes.
The Nelsons were married in Portland-December
24, 1912. Nelson de
clares that his wife's property is
worth at least $100,000, consisting of
700 acres of farm land and hopyards,
stock . and farm property. He has
turned over his wages to her monthly,
amounting to about $7000 since mar
riage, but has received little back for
spending purposes, he complains.

Oregon Growers Association Will
Build at Roseburg."
ROSEBURG. Or Feb. 24. (Spe
cial.) That the Oregon Growers'
association will build a prune pack
ing and processing plant here,
work on the structure to start Imme
diately, was the statement made by
J. O. Holt of Eugene, manager of tbe
association, who with his family ar
rived in Roseburg Sunday morning,
having made the trip here by auto.
The association also is planning proc
essing plants for Riddle and Myrtle
Creek, both places being centers of
large areas of prune orchards. The
processing plant here will be erected
on company holdings along the South
ern Pacific traclf.
Some Idea of the Immense benefits
which will accrue to the city with
the proper development of the port
facilities was given to the members of
the Portland association of building
owners and managers by W. P. La
Roche, city attorney, who addressed
the annual banquet of the association
at the Benson hotel last night. The
speaker told of the gigantic port pro
gramme which is being urged by City
Engineer Laurgaard, and asserted it
would Insure the city's future as the
leading port of tbe Pacific
"Until the construction of the St.
John's terminal there was no modern
and efficient dock or wharf structure
in the city to meet the requirements
ot our present-day overseas com
merce," he said. "The value of this
terminal to the port In' export and
import business is incalculable. This
type of business requires rails at the
ship s side. We had no wharves so
constructed and this is one of the
reasons why a great deal of business
which could have been done througb
this port was diverted to neighboring
porta.
Terminal Changes Stat a.
"With the opening of the St. John's
terminal, Portland was on an ab
solute parity with the best equipped
ports on this coast for the rapid and
economical handling of freights. The
records for handling rubber and mo
lasses were made at this terminal in
the closing days of 1919. This week
two ocean steamers will be unload
ing at the same time at the terminal.
"When the dock commission began
active construction of shore facilities
for water-borne commerce, our docks
and wharves had become out of re
pair and, in a way, obsolete. The busi
ness outlook for eea commerce was
discouraging and private owners
would not invest in new structures
because they promised very low rates
on capital invested, if any, with an
uncertain hazard.
Public Enterprise Leads Way.
"The public is, of course, justified
in providing essential port facilities
when conditions prevent the invest
ment of private funds. It is also true
that certain undertakings must be
borne by the public which are of gen
eral public benefit and of a kind in
which private corporations and in
dividuals have no particular interest.
Such is the Laurgaard plan for the
development of the west shore of the
Willamette river between Jefferson
and Glisan streets and from Front
street to the river.
"When, however, these public Im
provements are wisely conceived and
executed, the time comes when the in
vestment of private funds may again
be employed in the construction of
docks and wharves. The policy of the
dock commission is not to close this
field to private initiative, but to aid
in the development of the port busi
ness by providing essential port needs
so that attractive returns on money
Invested in water terminal facilities
will induce private owners to use
their water front properties in this
business.
Merchant Marine Important.
"The development of our merchant
marine will be an important factor.
The national government is urging
corporations and individuals to ac-t
quire ownership and control of ves
sels in merchant marine of the na
tion, which Inevitably will lead to the
leasing and purchasing of property
by these interests for water terminal
uses.
"Portland is now sensing the new
and vast fields of commerce into
which she is certain to go with ever
increasing strength and faith and
from which splendid dividends will be
drawn by those actively engaged in
this business. With the growth and
development of our commerce, new
industries will be established, new
docks and wharves, and shore struc
tures will be constructed and vacant
and unused shore properties will come
into use. When we become a port in
the true sense of the word, the devel
opments along the shores of the Wil
lamette from the heart of the city to
the confluence- of that river with the
Columbia will amaze most of us."
Architect Talks Coats.
Harrison A. Whitney, architect, gave
a talk on construction costs and main
tenance of buildings. He told the
building owners they could not expect
an appreciable reduction In costs of
materials for'years to come. He gave
a comprehensive outline of computing
office building costs by the square
foot or pace in order that owners
and managers might have accurate
knowledge of what returns they are
making on their investments. t
