11 THE HOMING.' OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, MARCH 9, 1920 ' . V " '". - t j . ! :. v '- r M'CDY IS "CALLED" FOR PLEDGE EFFDR I, Judge Crawford Inquires Why Wishes Are Disregarded. FREE DELEGATION ASKED That La Grande Democrat Warns He Will Xot Be Bound, as He Knows What He Wants. "Neither William Gibbs McAdoo nor Herbert Hoover desire their names placed upon the primary ballot in this state. Both desire an uninstructed delegation from tne state of Oregon to the national convention. "Why not acceed to their dsire and send to the convention an uninstructed delega tion? I am unalterably opposed to an instructed delegation. But if you send me, don't attempt to tie my hands, aa I shall likely untie them," writes Judge T. H. Crawford of La Grande, to Newton McCoy. "Why are you attempting to place the name of Mr. McAdoo on the pri-; mary ballot in this state? Have you his consent or authority to do so? I hardly think so in view of the recant Statement of Mr. McAdoo." Mr. Wat Is Pralned. When Judge Crawford declared that he wants to be free to vote as be pleases at the national convention, if elected as a delegate, notwith standing the democratic presidential choice of the primaries, Mr. McCoy sharply criticised the judge and pointed out that Judge Crawford of fered resolutions lauding Senator ChamberlAin at the last meeting of the democratic state central commit tee. Continuing. Judge Crawford's reply to Mr. McCoy says: "I am proud to be classed with democrats like ex-Governor West, Milton A. Miller, Mr. Alexander and Senator Chamberlain. We all agree upon the fundamental underlying principles of democracy although we differ on some minor details. Ex Governor West did more to elevate the moral tone of society in this state and to stamp out the curse of the liquor traffic while governor than any man who ever graced the executive chair of this state, and although he did and said things In connection therewith that I did not approve, yet J 1 honor him for the good work he did. "Senator Chamberlain was one of the leading senators who piloted through congress the constructive legislation demanded by President Wilson, which made It possible to mobilize the man power and material resources of the country and finance the late war and bring it to a suc cessful termination. Chamberlain's Work Liked. "The war department needed prod ding, and Senator Chamberlain did the prodding, and he got results which made the war department more ef ficient, added to the well being and comfort of our soldier boys, and saved the lives of many of them on the bat tle field of France. "I did not like the time, the place or the manner in which he did this prodding, but I am thankful that he had the courage and manhood to do what he did. It was a material aid to the president in bringing the war to quick successful end, and the en tire nation owes him a debt of grati tude for it. . "Yes I was- somewhat responsible for the resolution referred to by you indorsing Senator Chamberlain. Ex Governor West cfrafted that 'resolu tion, and 1 and State Senator Garland, used the blue pencil upon it, you might say edited it. We all agreed to it and proposed it for adoption. With all of his faults, and he is not with out them; that indorsement was due Senator Chamberlain." Judge Crawford further informs Mr. McCoy that he is for the league of nations and if he is a delegate to the convention, "I must know where the man who gets my vote for candi date for president stands upon thiB platform." In conclusion the judge invites Mr. McCoy to fdfrget non-es scntials, come whole heartedly into the democratic fold and get upon the democratic band wagon, pulling and working for a democratic victory.

Laurgaard, city engineer, has 1een appointed by property owners of Irvington to determine the question of the necessity of establishing a tel ephone exchange at East Twenty fourth and Stanton Btreets, as is pro posed by the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph company.
