ADOPTION HELD ASSURED White House Thought Also to Have Picked Mr. McAdoo as Party Standard-Bearer. OREGON IAN NEWS BUREAU, Washington, May Z. President Wil son intends to veto the Knox peace resolution and ttlereby make the peace treaty and the league of na tions the paramount issue of the presidential campaign, in the opinion of leading democrats here. Democrats in some manner received the intimation today that Mr. Wilson welcomes the Knox resolution as the surest and easiest method of getting the poace treaty before the voters. It Is expected that when the resolu tion comes up in the senate Wednes day the administration supporters will put up only a desultory opposi tion, to get their views into the record for campaign purposes. . - Adoption la Expected. It is assumed that the resolution will pass because so far only one re publican appears to be opposing it. Senator McCumber, republican of North Dakota, will speak and vote against it, but there are from three to a half dozen democrats ready to support it. These democrats include Reed of Missouri, Gore of Oklahoma, Shields of Tennessee, Wafsh of Mas sachusetts and possibly Hoke Smith of Georgia. Having chosen the issue for the campaign, there are also signs that Mr. Wilson has chosen his son-in-law, William Gibbs McAdoo, as the party standard-bearer. At any rate, a sur prisingly large number of democrats declare this is true. -New -York demo cratic leaders are so positive of it that some of them already have begun to show their teeth toward Mr. Mc Adoo. Dictation Plans Unfolding. Slowly the scheme of White House dictation of the McAdoo nomination is unfolding, political observers say. As pn( unfailing evidence they assert that among all the important nomi nations made by Mr. Wilson in sev eral weeks, only one is directly trace.able to any influence outside the executive mansion. This inter esting appointment is that of Frank Cooper, of Schenectady as judge of the United States district court of northern New ' York. In naming Cooper, the president rejected the advice of Attorney-General A. Mitchell Palmer, who is supposed to have the last word on judicial appointments. Mr. Palmer was ignored and it is learned that the appointment . was made of the recommendation of Bernard M. Baruch, campaign man ager for Mr. McAdoo, and that Mr. Baruch acted on the advice of George R. Lumm, former socialist mayor of Schenectady, who recently came out for McAdoo for president.

OF COURSE THE AUTHORITIES WOULDN'T INTERFERE WITH Only Shortcoming of Experiment at Pittsburg Is That Jazz of Drums Fails to Carry. PITTSBURG, Pa., May 3. (Special.) Music was transmitted half a mile by radio here and was sufficiently loud at the receiving end for .dancing, ac cording to announcement today from the University of Pittsburg, which with the Carnegie Institute of Tech nology conducted the experiment Sat urday night. The "Tech" orchestra sat in Central hall and played a jazi tune, while the Pittsburg university students gath ered In Heinz' house, half a mile away, and danced two numbers. Pro fessor Edwin R. Rath at the experi ment station of the university trans ferred the music by the use of a mag navox and two strings of electric wires. ' The Pitt experiment station is near ly a half mile from Tech hall and Heinz" house is equally distant from the experiment station and the hall. In this roundabout way the music was transmitted a distance of a mile. The magnavox. Professor Rath ex-. plained, is an instrument which was used widely in military operations to increase the sound from a radio re ceiver. The only shortcoming of the ex periment was that the jazz of the drumc was missing, the receiver ap parently being adjusted to take only the sound waves of the horn and stringed instruments. Scores of radio students in the dis trict reported today having "listened in" on the music. CANDY MAKER SUES SON Case of H. R. Hoerier or Astoria on Trial in San Francisco. SAN FRANCISCO, May 3.

A cablegram to Ambassador Davis from the Irish pickets in Wash ington, signed "Mary Walsh, captain of the Washington pickets," says: "Press reports say that Laurette Taylor, American actress, was stoned by the British in your presence.

Will you instruct the British foreign office as the British ambassador in structed the American secretary of state ' to charge as felons American women peacefully displaying the truth about Ireland on Washington sidewalks In the sacred precincts out of the British embassy?"

Smith, president of the Columbia Riv er Shipbuilding: company, each were found guilty of contempt of court yesterday and were remanded by Fed eral Judge Bean to the custody of United States Marshal Alexander until such a time as they produced all their corporation books, records and 'docu ments before the federal grand jury. A stay of execution for five days was allowed by the court, pending: the filing- of a bond of $10,000 by each corporation executive. Companies Kined 3HTM. Judge. Bean likewise adjudged the two shipbuilding corporations' in con tempt of court and assessed fines of $2500 each against the two concerns. A similar stay of execution was al lowed. Dan J. Malarkey and W. Lair Thompson, attorneys for the corporations,- assured the court that bonds would be filed not later than today and the preliminary work of prepar ing an appeal direct to the United States supreme court will be expe dited as much as possible. Through a misconception of the court's ruling. Presidents Bowles and Smith were in the custody of Chief Deputy United States Marshal Mann for a brief moment Immediately after the hearing had concluded. Irealdenta Get Iteleaae. Mr. Mann was directed by United States Attorney Humphreys and Ben L. Moore, special assistant to Attorney-General Palmer, to take the two shipbuilding heads into custody until the $10,000 bond demanded of each had been filed with the court. As the deputy marshal started to lead Mr. Bowles and Mr. Smith into the marshal's office. Attorney Ma larkey rushed to the assistance of hia clients and made strenuous objection to their detention. Deputy Mann then accompanied Mr. Malarkey back into Judge Bean's courtroom, where the jurist directed that the two shipyard executives be released by virtue of the five-day stay of execution. The two shipyard officials waited just outside the door of the marshal's office until Mr. Mann return... and in formed them that the court did not order them held. They then left the federal building in company with their attorneys. Procerdinga Are Brief. The contempt of court proceedings p of less than 20 minutes duration. Defense Attorney Thompson raised 1 the point that the two shipyard pres I idents could not be held guilty as in- Idlviduals because the subpoena duces tecum which they refusel to obey last t week was directed against .the cor porations. Judge Bean, however, held that they were responsible for the refusal of the corporation to comply with his or der, "and consequently were equally as guilty as the corporation. United States Attorney Humphreys, in a brief statement to the court, pleaded for the imposition of a jail sentence against the shipyard offi cials, and after the court had remand ed them to the custody of the marshal he again demanded the fixture of a heavy bond pending an appeal. The federal "prosecutor suggested a bail of $10,000 for each president, and Defense Attorney Thompson immedi ately assented. Bonds for the corpor ations also will be filed pending the determination of the appeal to the highest court of the land. ' Appeal to Be I'lfshrd. That the shipbuilding in vesUgation is now haited definitely for several months is apparent from the culmi nation of court proceedinga.yesterday. Judge Bean was apprised by the d fense that an appeal to the Unitatf States supreme court would be per fected immediately, and it was under stood by the court that this appet would be started when he fixed Ln. bonds of Presidents Bowles and SmitS, The contempt of court proceedings were the result of the refusal of ti two corporations lojobey a mandate o Judge Bean, who ordered the issuance of a subpoena duces tecum requiring them to produce all their books and records before the federal grand jury. Disclosures which department of jus tice operatives allege have been made were cited in earlier court proceed ings by United States Attorney Hum phreys' to be of stftcient importance and seriousness to warrant a compiet probe of shipbuilding activities.
