THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, 3IARCII 9, 1020 -.1 4 - . "S .- 1 ;. :; -A UNITED RUSSIA SEEN IN JAPANESE GREED Returned Merchant Tells Siberian Conditions. of ORDER TO COME, OPINION Oriental Troops Active In Ports and Are Grasping Everything, Says E. Jellinek. SEATTLE. Wash., March 8. (Spe cial.) "There is only one way in which the Russian people of Russia proper and Siberia can be united on any definitely established government and that will be in case Japan should make any definite attempt to grab Siberia or any part of it. As badly demoralized as that great country is today and as impossible as it may ap pear that a strong united nation can arise from the ruins, it would not l at all strange to see all parties united to repel Japanese attempts to appro nriate anv nart of Siberia. Much as the Russian people quarrel among themselves at present, they are cer tainly united in their hatred for Japanese aggression." This is the way troubled Siberia appears now to K. Jellinek, a mer chant of New York, who has returned from a residence of about a year in Vladivostok. All Siberia, with Russia, Is seeth ing and suffering and while the so cial revolutionists arc now in power, ho says, they stand ready to deliver the government to the bolsheviki or any other class of the same type who demand it. The name appears to make no difference, but anything would be better than what now is. Tillage and murder seem to be the prevailing condition of all Siberia and recovery and stability appear far away, he said. Kol'chak S liked by - ' lie undou k, Mr. Jellinek said, was wen the people in general ano htcdly had the weltare 01 rh pniinlrv at heart. But," he said, 'it was the officials of the Kolchak government who in curred the ill-will of the enemy and perhaps this ill-will was merited." Out of this terrible muddle and rtruggle for stable government Mr. Jellinek believes order will eventual ly appear. "Now it may seem long way off," he said, "but it will come in time. One thing which may play an important part is perhaps due to the huge number of troops Japan is now moving into Siberian ports, par ticularly Vladivostok. They seem to be reaching out for everything and the hatred against them among all classes of Russians is strong. Should rhe carry her grabbing attempts a little too far there will be a quickly united Russia and Japan will play an important part in bringing about such a position." Obituery. H' rOOD RIVER.

Body of Acwsnaper Cartoonist's Father Taken From Sound. 'Sudden Illness Feared. SEATTLE, Wash., March 8. (Spe cial.) The body of Daniel Murphy, 66 years old, wealthy retired pioneer liquor dealer of Seattle and father of Harry Murphy, a nationally famous newspaper cartoonist and formerly on Pacific coast papers, was found at 7:30 this morning in the bay, 100 yards off Colman dock, by Captain A. Sund of the tugboat Patrol. The theory of suicide is maintained by Mr. Murphy's friends and asso ciates. He had received a visit from his son, whom he had asked to come to Seattle from Chicago where he is employed. Harry Murphy arrived Thursday and stayed with his father until Saturday when he started back to Chicago. Efforts to reach him by telegraph were made this morning to tell him of his father's death. Ac cording to Walter B. Robinson, 437 New York block, who cared for Mr. Murphy's business affairs, the fear of sudden illness had caused Mr. Murphy to ask that a young man be em ployed to take care of him and ac company him wherever he went. Mr. Robinson had about completed an ar rangement of this kind. Another sign of Mr. Murphy's mental state, his fear of death, said Emerson H. Carrico, Mr. Murphy's at torney, was the more and more atten tion he had been paying of late to so called healers. Mr. Murphy was last seen alive Sat urday night when he and his son checked oift from the Butler hotel, where they had been registered. That the body had bene in the water but a short, time when found was indicated by the fact that his watch was still running. Attorney Carrico said he believed Mr. Murphy was worth more than 8100,000. He owned property in Se attle. considerable in stocks and bonds, a farm of 238 acres in Cle Eium and other property. Mr. Murphy was born In New Bruns wick. He came west 25 years ago, first settling in Eureka, Cal., a short time later he came to Seattle where he started in a wholesale and retail liquor store on Pike street, near Fourth avenue. For some years he had been retired and living at 715 Eleventh avenue. Besides his son, Harry Murphy, a daughter, Mrs. Winifred Esther Bel knap of Chinook; three sisters, Mrs. Anna Kingston, Mrs. Margaret Hurley and Miss Helen Murphy of Seattle: two brothers, William Murphy of Se attle and John Murphy of Pendleton, survive him. Harry Murphy was for several years cartoonist for The Oregonian. He is now connected with an eastern news paper in a similar capacity, y PLANE MAY DECIDE VDTE WEST VIRGINIA ACTIOX OS SUFFRAGE IX BALANCE.

OF OPAL AS REAL DIARY DOUBTED Literary Knowledge at Age of 6 Regarded Askance. ' PROFESSORS TAKE NOTES Question or Parentage Declared, by E. S. Conklin Probably Falsifi cation of Memory. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, March 8. (Special.) The controversy as to whether Opal Whiteley really wrote, at the age of 6, her. diary, which is appearing in the Atlantic monthly, is competing with the ques tion of her parentage for first place of interest among: the faculty of the university. Both those who knew .Opal as a student -here from the fall of 191$ to March, 1918, and those who had not heard of her until the first announcements that her diary was teing published in the Atlantic ap peared in The Oregonian, are keenly interested in speculating as to who Opal is and as to whether she could have written her most unusual diary at such an early age. Some professors are discussing the matter in their classes while others are pursuing it as a matter of scien tific investigation. The students are also interested in the development of the case. rcat Intercut Is Aroused. Some on the campus had not heard of the diary until The Oregonian's story of Sunday morning. This aroused great interest as well as the fact that the Atlantic Monthly had published the first installment of the biography and that Opal . is an ex university student. j Dr. Edmund S. Conklin, head 'of the department of psychology, is follow ing the case from a scientific stand point, for he has made a study of the theory of "foster child fantasy," which he thinks may be exemplified in Opal's story. He states that it is quite possible that the memories of Opal's childhood are a falsification of her memory which have become facts with her. Dr. Conklin recently sent out quer ies all over the state to find out how- many people at one time had had the idea that their parents were not their own. He found the experience a com mon one. Answer Based on Queries. Out of 900 queries, 28 per cent ac tually remembered having had the experience, most of them in the pe riod just before adolescence at the age of 8 or 12 years. Out of this number 25 per cent actually believed t at the time that they were ob sessed with the idea. This figure must be considered as a minimum, Dr. Conklin states, since it is highly prob able that many of the people ques tioned had had the idea and would recall it upon being asked later. Dr. Conklin, unlike some other members of the faculty, thinks that it is possible that the diary may have been written at the age of six years. if Opal was a precocious child, as seems to be the case. Others Are Skeptical. Other scientists in the departments of zoology and botany are more skep tical as to the question of Opal's writ. ing the diary at the age of six. The Point which is causing the principal discussion among faculty members i: the appearance of such a large num her of classical and literary allusions in the diary. Opal's explanation of the two books left her by her "angel parents," and the inference she gives that they were educated people, is not considered sufficient evidence by some or the faculty to explain her fa. miliarity at six years with names of characters in Macaulay's "Lays of Ancient Rome, or her acquaintance with such names as Lucian, Aphrodite Sanzio, Raphael and Hugh Capet. The appearance of the name of Thomas Chatterton in the diary has been commented upon by members of the faculty. Chatterton was a poet of the 18th century who wrote poems which were accepted by critics and antiquarians of this day as 15th cen tury manuscripts. According to both her high school and university records as kept in the university business office, Opal never studied the lath century language in school. BONUS SOURCE DISCUSSED House Takes Up Question of Reve nue to Prove Compensation. WASHINGTON, March 8. How to obtain new sources of revenue to pro vide relief for former service men was discussed today by the house ways and means committee with rep resentatives of soldier organizations, but without common agreement as to the best mode of procedure. Many suggestions have been offered n connection with the committees onsideration of more than 60 bills. The problem has been made more dif ficult, members said, because of the conflicting views of the various or ganizations. There was the promise today that harmony of action might develop. Colonel Lester E. Jones, command ing the District of Columbia depart ment, American Legion, announced that the legion's executive commit tee would meet March 22 and ex pressed belief it would work in close co-operation with all service men to ward obtaining help from the gov ernment.

Abnormally heavy rains for the remainder of the present wet sea son are the only thing that will pre vent a very serious water shortage for irrigation and hydro-electric pow er in northern and central California, according to A. H. Palmer, meteorolo gist of the United States weather bu reau. While the seasonal rainfall has also been deficient in the south ern part of the state, the conditions there are not so serious. - In a report to the state railroad commission, Palmer says this makes the fourth successive year of de ficient rainfall in California. The year 1917 was but 62 per.cent of nor mal; 1918, 91 per cent; 1919, 79 per cent. To a large extent this depleted the reserve supply of water in the" soil and rock and appreciably lowered both natural and artificial reser voirs.

The co9t of owning an automobile took another jump yesterday, when several of the large tire Companies announced an Increase in the price of tires, immediately effective, aver aging about 20 per cent. This in crease applies throughout the United States. The advance varied somewhat with the different companies and different types and sizes. It . ranged from 15 to 25 per cent on standard lines, with as high as 35 per cent on certain odd sizes, but the general average was approximately 20 per cent. This more than offsets the drop in tire prices of last May, which ran from 10 to 15 and 20 per cent, but averaged around 10 to 12 V4 per cent As in that instance, the initiative row has been taken by several of nil ilfLl 1 -7 U Vyoyj The freeing- of the tartar is strictly mechanical.
