SALE OF GASOLINE WILL BE CURTAILED Pleasure Cars Limited to 20 Per Cent. APPEAL MADE TO CITIZENS DEMOCRAT RATHER "RED" "WASHI.VGTOX June 5. Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of l,iibor. declared in a formal fetatetucnt today that a war between the United States and Mex-U-o would result if the recommenda tions of the-eenate committee which investigated Mexican affairs were carried out- 1 "The report of the senate sub-com-mltteo investigating - conditions in Mexico under the chairmanship of Senator A. B, Fall," Mr.Gompers said, "amounts to a declaration that unless the Mexican government rewrites its constitution in accord with the idea of the American oil and mining inter ests, the government of the United States will intervene In Mexico, llterfor Motives Charged.. "The report of Senator Kali's com mittco demands-a number of specified changes in the Mexican constitution. These changes would be the consum raatlon of What has ' long been the hopes of the great oil and mining in terests, as well as the land timber interests, which have fomented the bitterness between the people of the United States and Mexico. "In uorne tnlnor particulars recom mendations made by Senator Fall's committee may be acceptable, but the heart of tli-e report can only be de scribed as .vicious. The report de mands that unless the Mexican con stitution is altered as recommended, the government of the United States 'send a police force, consisting of the naval and military forces of our gov ernment, into the republic of Mexico to open and maintain open every line of communication between" the City ot Mexico and every seaport and bor der port in Mexico. Hrport Called Vicious. ' "Of course, this amounts to policing practically the. .whole of the country. Those who know Mexico and the Mexican pe.ple understand fully that such actloh would mean war between the two countries. "The report of Senator Fall's com mittee, therefore, is a report which recommends a course leading direct to war with Mexico. This has long been desired by American interests engaged in the exploitation of the national wealth of Mexico. "Adoption .by the senate of this re port would constitute the adoption of a foreign -policy completely at vari ance with the established policy and traditions of our republic. Such a course as recommended by the report of Senator Fall's committee must be opposed by every justice and freedom loving American and will beyond question be unreservedly condemned by the working people of our country and the great masses of our people generally. Condition Held Vntenable. It Is difficult to believe that the Senate will give serious consideration to a report so out of harmony with the best thought of our time, and so full of the possibilities of dire conse quence to our people and our rtation as well as to a neighbor republic with wnicti we are at peace. "The report calls for American aid to Mexico providing Mexico agrees to the terms of the report. This is not an American proposition. It i. Prussian proposition. It must be set aside by the popular opinion and fair judgment of our people." STUDENTS GET OUT PAPER Industrial Kditlon Published at A ricultural College.

' Definite statements of anticipated June stocks were not given by rep resentatives of the gasoline com panies, although It is understood that the Standard Oil company has but 500,000 gallons in storage, which is being alloted to outside communities as quickly as tank cars can be obtained. The Associated Oil company has 90,000 gallons on hand, according to A. D. Parker, district manager. About 340.000 gallons additional are ex pected prior to June 30. The placement of the tank steamer Herrin, used by the Associated com pany to Carry gasoline to Oregon, on the drydock for inspection has robbed Portland of one cargo of gasoline in June.- amounting to approximately 170,000 gallons. Under the restriction Imposed to day, the Union Oil company of Cali fornia will be able to conserve for use during the convention period not to exceed 80,000 gallons. The Shell Oil company, according to J. C. Storey, Oregon manager, will be able to con serve between 30,000 and 40,000 gal lons for convention weeks. Estimates made by the oil com pany managers indicate that through restriction of sales and voluntary stoppage of waste, a. total of about 420.000 gallons can be taken from Portland stocks and utilized for con vention needs. These needs have been estimated as high as 1,250,000 gallons, but due to the shortage which is coast wide, it is certain that thou sands of automobiles which would have been driven to the coast had the situation been normal, will be left at home. Suggestion was made frequently at the meeting to eliminate the use of pleasure vehicles in Portland imme diately by refusal of sale of any gaso line, but it was believed by the ma jority of those present, that appeal would result in the voluntary stop ping of use of automobiles for plea sure.

Owners of pleasure automobiles in Salem and vicinity must reduce their gasoline demands one-half In the event the industries which operate by means of this fuel are to continue, ac cording to statements made at a meeting of the Salem Automobile Dealers' association held here today. Besides the dealers the session was attended by representatives of all th oil companies operating In Salem. The normal consumption of gasoline in the Salem territory is estimated at 12,000 gallons a day. but it is not be lieved by dealers that more than 2000 gallons of the product will be avail able for pleasure cars during the re mainder of June. Several dealers expressed the belief that gasoline for joy riding should be absolutely refused and that the deal ers strictly should guard against allowing their customers to hoard the fuel. Because Men - llOSEBURG, Or., June 3. (Special.) Highway construction work in this county has been hard hit by the gaso line shortage and tonight practically 100 motor trucks will be compelled to cease operations. These machines re used by contractors engaged in paving and grading, doing a great deal of the heavy hauling connected with construction work at Rice hill, Dillard and other points. As a rule, the trucks are owned by individuals, but a few sub-contractors own fleets. Contractors are in a quandary, as they feel that if shortage compels a general shutdown they will not be able . to get their crews together gain for resuming work and, on the other hand, they cannot keep wages going in order to hold the men on the job. Trucks doing a general hauling business operating out of this city also are forced into the idle class. 54 STUDENTS GRADUATED Record Class Finishes Course at Albany High School. A LB A NT, Or..

At a meet ing of the Vancouver chamber Of commerce last night, Clement Scott, president, ' appointed the following committee to prepare- plans: J. J. Padden, E. R. McKay and W. G.

JUiu iSS, 580-2L leasure driving will be stopped ere the present shortage has been elimi nated. Lack of time before the conven tions eliminated the suggestion that card system be adopted for the rationing of gasoline. Although it was admitted that persons desiring to obtain more gasoline than they are ntitled to, can find means of doing so, it was also pointed out that the average automobile owner has suffi cient civic pride and interest in the continuation of agriculture activities and industry throughout the state. that little repeating or illegal stor age of gasoline is likely to take place. If automobile owners devise means to gain more gasoline than they are entitled to," said M. A. Wilkins, president of the Automobiles Dealers' association, "they should re member that they are only injuring themselves by using gasoline which should go to agriculture districts and ndustrles, or which 'should be con served to care for the visitors who will be here during the latter part of the month." Mayor Baker explained that the conventions, which will bring be tween 50,000 and 75,000 visitors to Portland are in no way pleasure events. Several hundred thousand dollars have been spent to induce men from all parts of the United States and Canada to visit Oregon and when they come they have been told they will be shown the advantages of our state. . It Is a business, pure and simple, to sell Oregon to the east. It is an opportunity which Portland and Oregon will not have again for years and every Portland resident should be glad to forgo anything within reason to assure a sufficient supply of gaso line to oare for the convention needs.' Telegrams Iteack Governor. Seriousness of the situation throughout the state was brought vividly before the meeting by Don Lpjohn. secretary to Governor Olcott who said that the state executive's offlc was flooded with telegrams from all parts of the state telling of me acute gasoline shortage. "Most distressing of all." said Mr. Upjohn, "is the present condition in many towns not on railroads. Such towns depend entirely on" automobile transportation for the necessities of life and these people are faced with an actual food shortaare." Telegrams read at the meeting indl cats that Roceburg is without gaso line, xnsumcient is on hand in The Dalles to supply trackers; milking macnines nave been stopped through lack oi gasoline In Astoria and Clat sop county, and farming operations in Umatilla county are seriously nanaicappea. Investigation by Deputy City At torney Myers, at the direction of Mayor Baker, reveals a general short age in California and in the greater part of Washington. Telegrams from Butte. Montana and Denver, Colo., In dicate no gasoline shortage, which is explained by company representa tlves because of the smaller marke as well as the fact that these points ar furnished from markets which the coast points cannot draw from be cause of prohibitive freight rates. A committee composed of Georg Quayle, representing the Oregon Stat Chamber of Commerce; William F. McKinney, president of the Oregon State Motor association; - Marshall Dana, president of the presidents' council, and O. M. Wilkins, president of the Automobile Dealers' associa tion, was appointed by Mayor Baker to investigate the situation outBlde of Portland and devise any and all means possible to furnish gasoline to such points and thus prevent Inter ference with agriculture activities. Excellent liesults Expected. Inasmuch as the - oil companies have agreed to follow all suggestions made by the conservation committee, it is. believed that excellent results will obtain from the work of the main committee and the sub-committees. William F. McKinney, Will J. Lester, representing the Garage and Repairmen's association, and Howard M. Covey will handle a publicity and advertising campaign to inform the public of the situation until the shortage has been relieved. - Members of the gasoline conserva tion committee appointed yesterday Include the following: Mayor George L.

It is understood that one car will leave Los Angeles at once and a second car five days later, Unless unforeseen contingencies arise the first shipment will reach here about Wednesday of next week. it was stated today. This deal is the culmination of negotiations that have been under way for a week, and th Roseburg National bank is assisting the business men to obtain the ship ment promptly. It is said th farmers and others using machines for business or operating trucks and tractors will be protected in obtain ing sufficient gasoline for immediate use. Pleasure cars will be last to re ceive a supply. NEWPORT VACATIONISTS FEW Gasoline Shortage Has Effect of Preventing Beach Trips. NEWPORT. Or., June -3. (Special.) Scarcity of gasoline, preventing many motor cars from coming, the high rate charged by the Southern Pacific Railroad company, advertis ing of Tillamook beaches by the same company and tedious delay at Yaquina station, where passengers must walk in the open to the ferryboat for New port and then wait while mail, express and baggage are transferred, is cut ting down the arrivals of vacation ists who usually come to Newport at this time. The late blooming of the rhododen drons this year makes Newport at present a veritable rarden of gorgeous color. MOTORISTS 60 TO SAVE GASOLINE Strong Appeal to Citizens Is sued by Mayor. SHRINE BACKS MOVEMENT Owners Asked to Help in Effort Towards Necessary Savin Several Weeks. for MORE HORSES ARE BEING TJSED One Man Is Reported as Hitching Animal to ford. ALBANT, Or.. June 3. (Special.) Because of the great scarcity of gas oline, many more horses than usual are seen on the streets of Albany and the roads of this vicinity. It is reported that one farmer who had disposed of all horse-drawn vehi cles on his place hitched a horse to hts Ford yesterday and drove to town. The companies are managing to supply enough gasoline to run trucks used in commercial enterprises and also for tractors for farm work and to people using gas-driven machinery. One garage here has been haul ing gasoline fifom Portland by trucks. but every load is sold within a few minutes after the truck arrive. Tourists Are Decreasing. PROSSER, Wash.. June 3. (Spe cial.) A marked decrease in the num ber of tourists traveling through the Yakima valley Is noticeable, owing to the shortage of gasoline. Before the le of gasoline was limited many automobiles were parked each night at the camping grounds. VANCOUVER SUPPLY CUT GASOLINE CONSERVED FOR BIG INDUSTRIES AND TRUCKS, Well Driller Finds Unguarded Tank of Distillate Drained; Touring Cars Still. VANCOUVER. Wash., June 3. (Special.) The gasoline shortage to day is worse than yesterday, as th supplying companies cut the svpply from 20 per cent of normal to 10 per cent at noon today. There is hope, however, that the supply will get back to normal again about September 1 according to G. A. Cusick, local rep. resentative of the Stanuard Oil com' pany. He said today that the shortage is caused by consumption increasing at a greater rate than production. Con sumption has Increased about 60 per cent while production has Increased about 20 per cent. Gasoline is being denied touring cars of every kind and tru.ks are given only their daily ra tion of gasoline. However, the Standard Oil company is taking care of the big industries, s-.ch as the G. M. Standifer Construc tion corporation, shipbuilders and en gineers, the Willapa Lumber com pany, the United Contracting com pany paving roads in this county, th Puget Sound Engineering company, and several others, including saw mills in outlying districts. A local well driller left a tank of 40 gallons of distillate on the Sluman farm near here and when he went to get it yesterday found that others had drained the tank. Portland motorists ar called upon to conserve gasoline to the limit during the next two weeks in order that adaitional allotment can be given for commercial an.d agricultural needs for the purpose of providing sufficient gasoline to care for con vention needs this month. The ap peal is made by Mayor Baker, chair man of the gasoline conservation committee. The -Shrine general committee, in session yesterday, went on record as ready to co-operate with the oil companies, date, county and city officials and business men who are attempting to keep the wheels of Industry and food production moving by conservation of gasoline in Port- and. Mayor Isaacs Statement. "As mayor and chairman of the committee on gasoline conservation it becomes my duty to call to public p.t'enlion the situation regarding th gasoline supply, the impending dan gers thereof, and the methods of re lief." reads the mayor's statement. "Investigation shows a most serious shortage extending throughout coast states, due apparently to production on a basis lees than the increase in consumption. Whatever the cause may be, the shortage exists and will continue to exist for a period of about 10 weeks, according to the best Information obtainable. "Portland now is seeking only its rightful share of gasoline and is not necking and will not seek any of the supply allotted to other parts of the state, as the outside supply is ex tremely essential, being Intended for tractors, farm implements and ma chinery used in food production. It 's to the best interests of the state and the people that this allocation should be increased rather than de creased and therefore no effort will be made as far as this committee is concerned to get any of this supply. To curtail the supply to machinery used In food production and essential industry would eventually result in unprecedented Increase in food prices and everything should be done to pre vent this, even to the discontinuance of pleasure cars altogether. "Portland within the last year has Invited three great conventions to meet here in June, which will bring thousands of visitors to the city. They have been promised the best of en tertainment. The position of this commiittee is that use of gasoline for this purpose is not Strictly for pleasure, but is a duty th city owes and indirectly is a strictly business proDosltion. There is but one way of relieving the shortage and that is by conser vatlon. For the good of Portland which has the visitors to entertain and for the relief of commercial en terprlses requiring gasoline to main tain their operations, which mean everything to the people of Portland, every owner of a motor car is urged to do his utmost to conserve tne gaso line supply allotted to Portland. Hints Given Saving. This may be done by drivers leav ing their cars at home unless abso lutely needed; by not allowing en gines to run idle; by not attempting to obtain more gasoline than the al lottment made by the gasoline com panies to the various types of cars and generally by using gasoline only where absolutely and positively necessary. By every motorist living up to this plan Portland will help to get by the 10 weeks' shortage and have gaaoline for Industry and for the conventions, Every motorist not following . this plan, which is intended for genera application in Portland, is adding his bit to the failure of Portland to properly entertain its convention visitors and to the city a failure to keep essential industry operating at the speed necessary to keep living costs within bonds, and keep factories from closing and thereby causing unemployment." On a motion by Mayor Baker, sec onded by J. A. Cranston, chairman of the Shrine traffic committee, the gen eral committee of the 1920 Shrine went on record In a resolution adopt ed, championing to the limit the plan of oil companies, city officials and business men of Portland so to ra tion gasoline allocated to Portland, so as to, first, care for essential in dustries and food production of th state, and second, to conserve enough out of Portland's allottment to car for the national conventions coming to Portland and Oregon this month.
