TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN. FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1920 SHIPYARD SHUT BY OPEN SHOP LABOR Union Domination, Not Rodg ers, Opposed. STAND IS MADE PUBLIC Gary's "Influence" Sought in, Let ter Asking StCcl'King to Help ' Provide "Jobs for All." the open shop pfan in Industry. The shipyards are to open up shortly. Our association has . been working with them for the open shop, and I think will be successful. "We have one obstacle In our way in this direction. Mr. David Rodgers. It is reported that he Is trying to buy No. 2 yard of Skinner & Eddy In this city, and judgir.g from past experi ence with him, he will unionize any yard he may acquire. I am wonder ing If it is possible for you to assist us in any way that will not Jeopar dize your interests, as we know that you favor the open shop. 'If Mr. Rodgers opens a yard here, he will unionize it, as is taken for granted by union officials here. If he does so, it will follow that the other yards will be forced to do the same. I presume he will come to you or your association for steel contracts, and your Influence might change his atti tude. "I can refer you as to my standing personally to J. D. Armour, Arthur SEATTLE, Wash.. May 13. (Spe clal.) The Associated Industries did not sponsor the'letter to Judge E. H. Gary of the steel trust, asking his support in an effort to keep ravld Rodgers from opening a unionized shipyard in Seattle. Air. Itodgcrs, president and founder. of the David Rodgers Shipbuilding corporation, abandoned possession of the former Skinner & Eddy yard No. 2, withdrawing all his organization from the plant. Howard Cosgrove, Seattle district attorney, for the emergency fleet corporation, later took over the yard with a force of watchmen. This, it was announced, ended the deal which Mr. Rodgers arranged with the shipping board for the purchase of the yard by his cor poration. The real source of the letter to Judge Gary was made clear today when, following a disclaimer from the Associated Industries, the writer made the letter public. The writer Is E. H. Luby, a salaried employe of the "American Association of Craftsmen and Workmen." Ho for merly was ..employment manager for the Waterfront Employers' associa tion. He has lived In Seattle 20 years. He lives with his wife and three chil dren at 2622 Thirty-eighth avenue southwest. "Equal Opportunity" Asked. Luby said: I "The credit and responsibility for the letter belongs entirely to the American Association of Craftsmen and Workmen, an organization of some 3000 American citizens who de fend the right of every American to work, regardless of whether or not he is a union member. "The letter was not written with any wish or intention of preventing Mr. Rodgers from engaging in the shipbuilding business, but in the Viope that influence could be brought to bear upon him to allow equal oppor tunity for all American citizens to ex pect employment in his yard when it opened. Similar letters were sent to others whom we thought might bave influence with Mr. Rodgers. "There was no thought of blocking him in the financing of his project or in obtaining material. "Open Shop" Emphasised. "The letter was written on the sole initiative of this association and signed by me personally. This asso ciation, composed entirely of work men, stands unalterably for the open shop and the advancement of industry. We made no effort to block Rodgers in his efforts to revive shipbuilding, as the opening of a shipyard is as much in our interest as In the interest of the rest of the community. "American citizens who were barred from service in the shipyards during the war because they did not carry union cards, however, do not wish to see that condition again when . the yards do open up, and our sole pur pose and aim in this matter was to protect our rights as American citi zens." Office Maintained In City. The association which Luby repre sents maintains an office at 94 Spring street. It was organized last Vctober m Seattle. Some of its organizers say they are union members, or have been. "We are for the open-shop princi ple, through and through." said J. Wr. McDaniel. secretary. "We have 67 crafts represented. We aim to place men in Jobs." "Where do you get the money?" he was asked. "From dues only $1 a month." "Are you a union man?" "I was a member of bollermakers' union No. 144. I got tired of listen ing to the numerous appeals for money for this and that. So I quit., and started working as a longshore man. TTalon Axneet Is Dlcansefl. "After I got a Job I was told I would have to Join the union, when I tried to they would not let me in be cause they were only accepting one new member a month. "Then I became a carpenter's helper. As a result of these experi ences I got the notion for this associa tion and took a prime part in or ganizing It." "How jid Dave Rodgers get Luby's letter to Gary?" "I don't know, but If we had known bo wanted to see one we would have sent one to him. There is no mystery about our work." Other shipbuilders In Seattle said they had figured on the ships which Rodgers wanted to build and decided they could not make a profit on them at the price named. The contracts, they pointed out, have been "kicked around the coun try" for months. Rodgers would lose money if he tried to build them, they insisted, one estimate of Rodgers' loss running as high as $100,000 a ship. Belief of bankers that Rodgers couldn't build the ships at the con tract ffgure was given as the real reason lor ineir reiusai to oacK him financially with J2.000.000 perform ance bonds. "Rodgers knows shipbuilding, but he doesn t know costs, one man said, "ties an expensive shipbuilder. Here is Luby's letter: "Ninety-four Spring street, Seattle, Wash.. March 17, 192U. , "Judge E. H.

BENTON GROWERS GET IOC BERRIES OFFERED CORVAILIS CAXMORY TO GET, MARKET. 200,000 Tons to Be Handled at Lower Price and but 5 0 at Higher, Says Manager. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Washington. May 13. President Wil son's veto of the legislative, execu tive and Judicial appropriation bill to day took congress by surprise. The euprise appeared not so much to be the fact of a veto, but that Mr. Wil son should complain of "encroachment by congress on executive authority." This appears to be Mr. Wilson's an swer to charges long ago made by republicans and now re-echoed by leading democrats, that the executive has usurped every kind of authority that he could find and has been seek ing something new to usurp. It will be conceded, doubtless, however, that some of the president's points are well taken because in its attempt to. put a check on waste and extravagance in printing and in the administration of public building space, congress inad vertently may have stepped over the line in a few places. High Purpose Conceded. The country. However, will hardly understand what congress was trying to do when it placed in the legis lative, executive and Judicial appro priation bill the section which caused Mr. Wilson to use the veto. To state the matter fairly, congress was seek ing to put a check on itself as well as on the executive department. The purpose was to enjoin the executive departments from printing large numbers of expensive documents for the use of members of congress and others to eend out to their constitu ents for campaign purposes. Congress was well aware when.. that section was passed that several mem bers of the house and tenate would be hampered in their campaigns, but the law was conceived in the high purpose of " preventing waste by whomsoever practiced. Chief Objection Aoted. . Tlfe president, however, appears to oDject particularly to that provision which would put a check on the liberal use of the "multigraph and the mimeograph" by the executive de partments. Plainly stated, this pro- ision was aimed to stop adminlstra ion press agents from using govern ment money for political propaganda. The manner in which the executive departments under President Wilson have maintained press bureaus Is sometimes declared to be the eighth wonder of the world. Not only reams but bales of paper bave been used laily to sing the glories of depart ment heads and bureau chiefs and every department of the government has bad a booster organization work- ng overtime. The press room has been the only office working after 4:30 in the afternoon, when all other help eagerly quits and goes home. People Fay for Hobbies. Government publications. It has been shown in house and senate de bates, have been used to the extent of millions of copies to promote ad ministration hobbies, regardless of the fact that the cost fell upon a very large proportion of the people of the country wholly at odds with the poli cies, ideas and idiosyncracies of MrS Wilson and come of his cabinet members. Senator Smoot of Utah, who was the author of the objectionable sec tion, has waged a heroic fight to re duce waste in government printing, but the president's veto will compel the Utah senator to find another and different method of reaching the evil. RUSSIAN TRADE IS TOPIC fCentlnufd From First Pbkc.) HAVE COLOR IN CHEEKS Be Better Looking Take Olive Tablets CORVALLIS. Or., May 13. (Special.) The Benton county cannery will not be idle this summer, says its manager Ira Hutchings, for the local growers have not demanded a prohibitive prlca for their berries. Manager Hutchings says that he has contracted with number of logan growers for 10 cents and has the assurance that his can nery is going to get all the berries It can handle at that price. Ho figured out that, whereas he could handle 200,000 tons at 10 cents. he could handle but 50 tons at 12 cents, and above that price he would not contract at all. His conviction is that a high price will make the canned fruit prohibitive to ordinary custo mers and would so curtail the market that no canneryman can afford to take the risk. Mr. Hutchings says Jobbers have been refusing to contract for canned goods at the high prices for the rea son that retailers refuse to buy of the Jobbers. The retailers say there is a price beyond which the customer will not go in the purchase of berries and otherfru!t, ancLtbat in their es timation the limit has been reached. JUDGE ROSSMAN FLOORED Adjustment of Policeman-Attorney Difficulty Too Much. 'If a policeman and an attorney cannot adjust their differences with out outside help, I don't know what they expect a judge to do," declared Municipal Judge Rossman, who yes terday released R. H. Byng. patrol man and engineer at the police sta tion, who had been charged with tres pass by C. B. Sears, attorney. The difficulty 'is said to have started when an old fence between the prop erties of the two was torn down and replaced by another. Certain tiiTcans and rubbish are said to have been un earthed which each man claimed to be the property of the other. Byng, it is said, took the initiative by putting the cans on his neighbor's. lot. The result was that he was ar rested for trespass. - Washington: "Foreign Trade Promo tion Through the Banks." by W. E.

Three airplanes will be sent to Ku gene from Mather field, Sacramento, for the air circus to be staged here May 20. according to a long-distance telephone message received yesterday by K. C.

The colonel said that he might be here in hia "blue bird" Ie Haviland plane in which he made a trip over the north last fall. Read J.he Oregonian classified ads. have proved popular. He said gam pies of American goods should be displayed in Chinese cities to afford consumers an opportunity of becom ing familiar with them, and advised that American industrial motion pic tures be distributad to American con suls, commercial attaches and through the Chinese government as an educa tional measure. Chinese Catalogues Ijrged. "But above all, your catalogues and booklets should be printed in Chi nese," he said. He advised the advertising of American products in China through newspapers and signboards. He said more direct exchange of products be tween tho United States and China was desirable and quoted an incident whereby a shipment of . American cotton had reached China by way of Manchester, England. Despite the fact that the great mass of the Chinese people do not understand English, there are three letters of the English language whose significance is plain to them, should advise you to place those let ters in large type on all of your prod ucts.

S. A." the Inscription in Chinese characters made in America." Greater Freedom Keeded. "No one in America knows the vast number of friends the United States has among the 480,000,000 people in China," he added. Primarily, he said, greater free dom must be permitted for the com binations of industrial and financial interests in a corporate way for for eign trade; foreign concerns must be relieved of -the payment of excess profit taxes when they pay taxes to the country in which they are operat ing, and an efficient system guaran teeing adequate mail, cable and wire less communication by the govern ment must be inaugurated. Politics must be taken out of the diplomatic and consular service, de clared Philip B. Kennedy, director of the United States bureau ,of foreign and domestlo service. He asserted that lack of co-ordination and lack of progress In government representation abroad thwart the purposes of the service, and called upon spontaneous action by the business men of the country to place this service upon a proper basis.

OREGON DEMOCRATS SPLIT (Continued from First Page.) administration candidate to support for president. . Lrtltr Held Challenge. Under the heading, "The Blacklist." the New York Tribune says, edito rially, today: "The president's Ore-on letter has been accepted in that state as a chal lenge to Senator Chamberlain's can didacy for re-election. Chairman Hamajter, to whom the letter was ad dressed. Is managing the campaign of Mr. Starkweather, Mr. Chamberla'n's opponent in the democratic primaries.. Mr. Chajnberlaln voted on March 19 last for ratification of the treaty with the Dodge reservations. If, as the president holds, these reservations 'nullify' the pact and are a strain upon American honor, then Mr. Cham berlain is a co-conspirator to destroy our 'world leadership" and to prevent the application of 'moral and Christian principles' to the world's problems. Big Boycott Undertaken. "Mr. Chamberlain, has committed the unforgiveable sin of supporting treaty reservations which the presi dent dislikes. He is to be defeated for renomlnation if the administration can bring about that result, even though a democratic seat in the sen ate may be lost in the process. ' "But if Mr. Chamberlain is to be blacklisted all the other democratic senators who voted as he did on March 19 must be blacklisted. It is a boycott of . huge proportions. But the president seems perfectly willing to defeat any senator or to lose any state In his effort to punish democrats -who failed in loyal appreciation of his treaty policies and his personally con ducted world leadership.", Exceptions are taken to statements of Dow V. Walker, manager of the Wood campaign in jregon, by Joseph re. Dunne, manager ior Dowden in this state. Air. Dunne resent the lmputa tion that General Wood is weaning away the supporters of Governor Lowden, and issues the following dec laration: "I again feel It is necessary for me to make an emphatic denial that the Lowden forces are leaving and going to any other candidate. A stutcmcrrt in today's Oregonian is attributed to Dow Walker, in which he says: 'In the second place, wc would have a conventional remonstrance from Mr. Dunne, who Is in charge of the Low den campaign, and one or two of the Hoover people.' "Let it suffice to say that Ihe peo ple in the Lowden headquarters are convinced that Dow Walker is su fering from an illusion. . Ooija Board Blamed. "Undoubtedly Mr. Walker has be come conversant with the mysteries of the ouija board and has chosen for his guide, since all ouija players must have a guide, no other than 'Laughing Water' of Ivory bubble fame, and this guide alone, so far as the writer can say, must be his authority for the assumption that Governor Lowden's followers are leaving him, because through no other source could such conclusion be reached. ' "In the five states in which Gov ernor Lowden, General Wood and Sen ator Johnson have been candidates. Governor Lowden is only SO. 000 votes behind General Wood, and the state ment by Mr. Walker, that Governor Lowden had lost part of Illinois, i ab solutely untrue and we refer to the Associated Press reports of yesterday to show that the state of Illinois is solidly behind Governor Lowden and that he has not lost a delegate, despite the expensive campaign carried on by the Wood people in the city of Chi cago, with the aid of Big Bill Thomp son s machine; whereas. Lowden spent not even as much as $1 and, in one of his addressse to the people of Chicago, he said, 'I do not intend to pay one dollar towards newspaper or billboard advertising: I will let my efforts In behalf of the Etate of Illi nois say whether I am worthy of your support or not and abide by the result. 81.000 Majority Claimed. "The result was a majority in the state of Illinois of 81,000, although it is probably well known that Gen eral Leonard Wood, on account of his association with the army and having ived in Chicago where his head quarters were for a long period or time and where ho is probably as well known as Governor Lowden himself.' and after a campaign costing what is variously estimated from $200,000 to $300,000, still the state of Illinois voted to support Governor Lowden by this 81.000 majority. When Senator Borah requested that all of the campaign committees sub mit their contributions at Washing ton on a certain day, Louis L. Eraratr son was there and. please let us say. Governor Lowden was the only candi date whose manager was there. This shows very plainly that we had noth ing to hide and, wnile we nave ueen carrying on a clean ana nonesi cam paign, have never resonea 10 me practice of trying to dirty up any other fellow in the race ror me pur pose of saving our own hide. New Hampshire Is Cited. "One of the paragraphs to which I wiBh to direct attention is the one regarding native sons, in which Mr. Waiker dwells at length upon the record which Dr. Wood made in the state of New Hampshire as a native son. in which he said: 'Only one can didate so far has made an impression In nis native siaie ana mat is vtru eral Wood.' If I remember correctly, every other candidate respected the native son principle and stayed out of New Hampshire. Small wonder that Dr. Wood carried the state, with no one running against him. I must say that this Is a record to be Justly proud of and I want to congratulate Mr. Walker on the discovery of this incident. "Let me also add that General Wood's management does not adhere to the gentlemanly example set by the other candidates and, in their efforts to win on the first ballot, spent their money so lavishly in the states of other candidates and in vading the native state of Senator Harding, caused the manager of Sen ator Harding to ay that the nomina tion of tiir. Proctor's candidate is impossible. " "While we do not doubt the value of Mr. Walker's political judgment, and feeling certain that General Wood will be defeated, we feel that he h admitted it a little too early and hate to express our sympathy this early in the game to one of the fel lows who lias fought so valiantly in J the race. We are not acquainted with the intricacies of the ouija board and are, therefore, unable to find any thing that would look like a prophecy. and present the cold, hard facts to the republican electorate of Oregon.
