LETTER COVERS 12 POINTS All Candidates Asked for Definite Kiprcssion of Views on Farm Legislation. WASHINGTON. March 17. The first copy 01 a questionnaire, pre pared by tbe national board of farm organizations for presentation to all presidential candidates to place them en record on matters affecting farm- C.'rs, was received today by Williartf Jcnnings Bryan. Jlr. Bryan said that although he was not at this time a candidate, he would study the questionnaire and J give his opinion on it. He declared himself heartily in accord with re questing candidates to place them selves unequivocally on record prior to the campaign. Farmer' Protection Sought. Elimination of the middleman, pro tection of the farmer in his right to organize, appointment of an expert acceptable to organized agricultur ists and representation for farmers on all boards and commissions, are the main planks in the farmers' plat form outlined in the questionnaire, according to C. S. Barrett, president of the national board and chairman of the committee which drew up the document. Other issues presented included the free and unquestioned right of col lective buying, reduction of the farm tenancy evil, improvement of farm credit facilities, national conservation , and the maintenance of "free speech, free press and free assembly." The committee already 'has listed . J 4 active or prospective candidates to ' receive the inquiry and will add oth ers as each candidate, active or re ceptive, assumes that status. The list now includes Vice-President Mar Fhall, Senators Johnson. Poindexter, Harding. Lenroot and Owen; Gover nors Cox, Sproul, Coolidge and Good rich, and Herbert Hoover, Attorney General Palmer, Governor Lowdcn and Major-General Wood, 12 Inquiries Propounded. The questionnaire is in the form of a letter asking the recipient to send "definite and clear replies" to 12 specific inquiries as to his views. "Prosperity on tbe farm is the first ' condition of general prosperity, the preamble asserts. "Decline of agri culture Is now and always has been the central danger to civilization. Agriculture is declining in America. Jf the general welfare of our people is to be safeguarded, the decrease in farm production compared with popu- lation and the impairment of the fer tility of our soil must be stopped. "In view of the power exercised by the president upon both the legisla tive and administrative branches of our government, we believe that not !only the 40,000,000 who live and work on our farms but all Americans de sire and have the right to know in advance what they may count upon a candidate to do after election."

"Will you appoint a secretary of r agriculture who knows actual farm " conditions; who is satisfactory to the "' farm organizations of America, and who will cause to be made compre hensive studies of farm production costs at home and abroad, and publish ...the uncensored facts?

PUNS II FOB DRIVE WORLD M OVEMKXT FORCES READY FOR CAMPAIGN. Church Declared to Be Only Agen cy Possessing Clear Vision and Courage to Face Facts. Interchurch world movement repre sentatives and representatives of the Protestant denominations co-operating with the interchurch movement from all parts of Oregon, met in con ference yesterday in Portland when plans were laid for the simultaneous financial campaign to be held from April 25 to May 2. The morning ses sion took place in the First Congre gational church, there was a noon luncheon at Multnomah hotel, and In the afternoon denominational confer ences were held in the Multnomah hotel. Otto Mayer of the national survey department of the interchurch world movement at New York dis cussed the work and results of the c'ounty surveys being made by the organization. Frank G. Moran, re gional director for the northwest states, discussed plans for the cam paign and Frank C. Jackson, Oregon campaign director, outlined the prep arations being made for the drive in Oregon. "The way the whole campaign is being conducted," said Fred E. Schmidt of Pendleton, interchurch director of Umatilla county, "shows how carefully It has been planned and what efficient arrangements have been made for the disposition of the funds o be secured. The church is now one agency which has had clear ness of vision, courage and penetra tion to learn its needs, to face the facts and to prepare to carry out the task ahead. "The united simultaneous financial campaign in reality is a demonstra tion of the solidarity of the Protes tant churches. If will also be a dem onstration of the. Interest of the citi zens of the community in this pro gramme which has so clearly demon strated the foresight and statesman ship of the church." The combined askings for 1920 of the simultaneous financial campaign total J336.777.572. At the conference yesterday considerable stress was laid on budget appropriations for min isterial support and relief. RED TERROR IS FORECAST Strike- Tics lp Capital; Suspcn- sioU of Utilities . Helps to Do feat Attempted Coup. , (Continued From First Padre.) empire met today and,, unanimously approved the old government and strongly condemned the military coup at Berlin. Frightened Berllners last night were asking: "The white or red ter ror! Which? This was in consequenc of an official announcement that the reds were planning an uprising, call ing upon the people to save the coun try from bolshevism. Bloodshed Is Feared. Government officials said to the Associated Tress: We fear bloodshed. It is difficult for us to hold the troops back." In preparation for the expected ris ing, officials camped in their offices all night. When the correspondent left the chancellory at night In the darkening Wllhelmstrasse, soldiers were bringing in huge boxes of food and cases of wine. Berliners generallj scurried to their homes and locked the doors. Notwithstanding Dr. Kapp s resigna tion, Berlin seems destined to have troublous times. An influential mem ber of the government, talking with the correspondent Tuesday, Insisted upon the urgency of suppressing the strike movement and communist op position. He added: ' "Time is on the side of the com munists, and every hour we let sup weakens our position. We may ex pect great events between now and tomorrow." The great events, beginning with the retirement of Kapp. are evidently moving to a climax. Ebert sent an airplane over Berlin, dropping leaf- ets and predicting . the early col lapse of the new government. The utter tie-up of the city con tinued today and there is no evi dence of the breaking down or the strike. . So far as is known, no fresh supplies of food have been received and prices are Jumping almost hourly. The striking water-plant employes released a sufficient amount to flush the sewers to prevent the outbreak of disease, but little is avaiiaDie tor drinking purposes. The list of killed -from numerous German towns and cities in clashes between demonstrators ' and troops mounted Into the hundreds. There has been no direct confirmation or last nights reports or 4U0 killed In a bombardment of Kiel by a warship, "but there are apparently veracious re ports of 100 killed and 300 wounded at Dresden, probably more than 100 killed in Berlin suburbs and the klll- ng of from a half dozen to a score f persons In others or the 24 or more German centers where clashes have been- reported. f . ...

Gallo has proceeded on the basis that while thera are a great many ways to murder these familiar airs, there is only one way to. sing them artistically right, and that is not to let each aria stalk abroad as a con cert solo, but to draw it all together aa a musical entity, giving each aria and each ensemble, number Its full value. The tremendous abuses and bad taste of endlessly sustained high notes and tawdry sentimentalized dragging of tempo is noticeably con spicuous by its absence. Between the set numbers the music that has so often oh, so often been ruthlessly slurred, such as recitative or unimportant connecting links, is given fine value and needed promi nence under the magic baton of Max Bendix, who conducts the lg-piece or chestra with easy assurance and re pressed vigor.

"The Making of Herbert Hoover," the . Sunset magazine's biographical sketch by Rose Wilder Lane in collab oration with Charles K.

A Berlin dispatch says a soviet re- ublic has been proclaimed at Eisel ben. Fighting is reported at Elber feld, one of the most important indus trial towns of Germany, between troops and communists, in which the latter were deleated. About 1000 communists are said to have been driven into the allied occupied terri tory and disarmed by the British. Fighting broke out at daybreak in Ha gen, Westphalia, between regulars and troops composed of the workmen, in which the regulars were worsted, losing more than 30 killed and 70 wounded, says a dispatch received from that city.

(By the Associated Press.) Nearly 200 mem bers of the national assembly were already here today and most of them participated in group reunions in preparation for the opening session of the assembly, set for 4 o'clock this afternoon: President Ebert, Minister of Defense Noske, Foreign Secretary Mueller and other members of the cabinet arrived from Dresden Monday. One and two-day protest strikes in sympathy with the old government threatened to reduce the attendance of the assembly, but seven special trains from various districts managed to get through. The sympathetic strike in this region ended last night and traffic now is restored. ARMORED CARS IN BATTLE Crew of One Is Wiped Out and Sev eral Others Are Killed. THE HAGUE, March 17. The Tele graafs Dresden correspondent, under yesterday's date, describing the fight ing for the telegraph pfflce, says the Spartacans had to engage a small force protecting the office but later had to encounter a larger force, which fought with grenades and armored cars. One of the cars was destroyed by the Spartacans and all the crew killed. The civic guard, by mistake, fired on toe government troops. Toward SOLDIER LONG THOUGHT DEAD CONFRONTS OLD FRIENDS Robert Ballard, Who Fell 2 600 : Feet In Broken Plane, Greets Former Associates. When Robert Ballard, former lieu tenant in the 324tH aero squadron, A. E. F., walked into his former place of employment yesterday his former associates for a moment thought a ghost confronted them, because they had long since given him up as dead. Ballard, who fought with the air forces through the Argonne and who was officially credited with three en emy planes, fell 2600 feet when a wing broke as he was in the air In a single-seated French Spad. This ac cident occurred after the signing of the armistice. aged that one is wholly unconscious of his presence. The natural result of such directing is that the whole work hangs together, its story as suming interest, its well-known music becoming-something more than mere tunes. Stupid Localism Mars. Save for one stupid and irrelevant reference to our local suburb, Albina, on the occasion when Katisha asks Ko Ko for the address of Nanki Poo and Ko Ko answers Albina there is a close adherence to the text. In his day Gilbert, who produced the operas with meticulous care. would not tolerate liberties taken with his text. Sullivan also Insisted, similarly, that as far as hea,ven per mitted the performers should sing what, he wrote and in the way he wanted it sung. Their methods were justified by results, a success due to a fortunate conjunction of talent and organization. Gilbert s delightful mixture of wit and craftsmanship, superior to libret tists who preceded him and who have come after his day, is still scintillat ing in effect. He coined phrases that have stuck and remained when others, excellent of their kind, have been forgotten. In all of his operas, but especially in "The Mikado" and "Pin afore," Gilbert's literary polish is happily matched by the urbanity and symmetry of Sullivan's music, which in its essential geniality was com plementary to the contributions of his colleague. Japanese Prima Donna Score. The present performance is con vincing and modeled-on keenly ar tistic lines. Hana Shimozumi, the Japanese prima donna, hal? a birdlike voice, unerringly true and of singular charm. She, too, is birdlike, of In gratiating personality, petite and piquantly picturesque. She is an ex cellent actress, moreover, and fits the role perfectly. Jefferson De Angelis is Ko Ko, in happy mood, of positive comedy genius and gifted in the art of pantomime. His "Flowers That Bloom in the Spring" and his I've Got 'Em on the List" were gems of delight. Humblrd Duffy is a splendid Nanki Poo, of admirable diction that did justice to the lyricist. His voice is a beautiful, smooth tenor, dred Rogers was an excellent study and vocally dellgtful. Tonight "The Chimes of Normandy' will be eiven.
