SALEM, Or., June 21. SpeciaL)
Should Milton Schwartz, recently ar
rested in New York City on a charge
of attacking little girls and later re
leased on the promise that relatives
would take him to Oregon, attempt
to enter this state he will be arrested
and examined as to his sanity, ac
cording to a letter prepared today by
Governor Olcott and sent to "Walter
Evans, district attorney of Multnp
ffiah county.
Schwart had resided in New Tork
City for some time. Recently it was
alleged he attacked some little girls
Jn that city and was examined be
fore a supreme court justice. in the
city of New York. The court was
about to commit him to an insane
hospital, when the mother and an
uncle of the man promised that they
would take him to Oregon if he were
released.
Man Reported Danger on.
The Justice permitted his release
fen their promise. Authorities, at the
examination in New York, were re
ported to have stated that Schwartz
was dangerous to be at large.
"I have written to Mr. Evans re
oucsting that he take immediate ac
tion against Schwartz in the event
tSchwartz comes into his jurisdiction,"
aid the governor today, "but through
the press I wish to ask that in event
riebwartz goes into any other county
of Oregon the proper officials take
immediate steps there to have him
examined as to his sanity. I consider
it an outrage on the part of the offi
cials in New York state to permit a
man of this caliber to be foisted on
our state. The little girls in Oregon
aro as fully entitled to protection as
the little children in New York state,
and whenever this man enters our
state I trust that prompt action will
be taken to see that our children are
protected."
Letter Sen to Mr. Kvauaa.
The letter which the governor ad
dressed to District Attorney Evans
follows:
"My attention has been called,
through the press and other sources,
to the case of Milton Schwartz, an
alleged degenerate and assailant of
little girls. 'who was declared in a
court in New York to be a lunatic
and dangerous to be at large. He
was, nevertheless, released upon rep
resentations of his relatives, who
promised to take the man to Oregon.
1 understand he left New York in
company with his relatives for Port
land a few days since. In the event
that this man arrives in Portland 1
am requesting that you see that he
is apprehended immediately and ex
amined as to his mental condition.
"I am informed that the justice
who sat on his case in New York was
about to commit him to an insane
hosintal, when his relatives interposed
the plea that he be allowed to ac
company them to Portland. I under
stand that they represented that he
is watched by an attendant, but I
further understand that he has elud
ed this attendant on occasions and
pursued his fancy for little girls.
"I consider that gross injustice ha
been worked against the state of Ore
gon in permitting this man to come
here, and there should be no delay
in peeing that he is examined by the
proper authorities for such disposi
tion as the examination may warrant,
"-I am trying to ascertain by tele
graph when Schwartz will arrive and
what his addreB3 in Oregon will be."
SHRINERS LET JOY LOOSE
Continu-d From F-lrst Page.)
minute the first section came to rest
nnder the trees, its famed Phila
delphia "Millionaire band" came into
action with a blast of trumpets that
started the crowds running for
blocks.
lO.OOO See Columbia.
- v Ten thousand Shriners and their
j N wives were taken out to the Colum
J bia highway in 2500 donated cars.
J But an additional 10.000 were dis-
J appointed; some so bitterly that they
i wept.
Ira F. Powers worked like a Trojan.
We shall have the cars tomor
(cw," he pledged. Then he said:
"The salvation of Portland's repu
tation for hospitality depends on the
auto owners of Portland. '
"All over the city are to be seen
ears with visitors' cards running
without passengers. All today we
have been impressing passing cars
on the street and sending them out.
Portland auto owners, I appeal to you
to do our city justice."
Thousands saw the city from the
vantage of street cars. Perhaps 7000
went over the "arrow route." Two
thousand, at least visited the Eastern
and "Western sawmill and were
amazed as they saw the giant logs
entering the mill and the finished
product leaving it.
"Women Ride on River.
Some hundreds of women were
taken on river trips.
Disappointed as thousands were,
yet they could not fail to feel their
hosts were doing their utmost.
W. Freeland Kendrick, imperial po
tentate, was the honor guest on the
highway and as many of the 700 im
perial representatives as could , be
rounded up were driven over Port
land's wonder boulevard.
in the evening band concerts were
everywhere. At least 60 bands were
in action. Some of. them filled their
official engagements, others started
impromptu dancing on the streets, in
the hotel lobbies and wherever the
crowds gathered.
Al Kader's guides and the formal
patrol were kept on the everlasting
Jump. In would come a train. The
patrol would, at attention, usher them
in for registration, then at the double
hurry back to the next train, unless
in the meantime it was already on
the way to headquarters.
And as each train came to rest, out
would joyously leap, one, two, three
and sometimes four bands, and the
depot roof would shiver as the great
chords crashed out.
"Women Have Good Time.
Hundreds of happy, laughing worn
en, from 7 to 70, poured into the
housing committee's automobiles and
were hurried to their Portland ad
dresses.
But it was the impromptu parades
that
1 S day.
Y Lu
took the popular fancy yester
Lu Lu, for instance.
Lu Lu dropped into town at 4 o'clock
At" 6 Lu Lu had a parade four blocks
long, composed solely of its own con
tingent, with Mayor Baker and Im
perial Potentate Kendrick in the van.
To a snappy marching tune, Lu Lu
headed off with Its green, gold and
white uniformed band. Then a de
tachment of zouaves that for ability
to exercise- formations in' the line of
march would be hard to excel.
Two handsomely-gowned women
marched by their sides, but it- was
whispered they were Julian Eltinges
in disguise.
Then 150 while-clad nobles, bearing
white umbrellas, with the words in
red, "Lu Lu" on their tops.
Gorgeously-clad chanters sang
whenever the band took a rest.
Money Raised for Charity.
- The band was directed by Dr. H.
Howard Thomas. It is composed of
former professional musicians and has
a money-raising record for charities
that perhaps has never been sur
passed. On the start of its cross
country trip it played for an ice and
milk charity for half an hour. Net re
sults: (10,000. During the Chicago
convention the band serenaded Gov
ernor Sproule.
Then Za-Ga-Zig. The Za-Ga-Ziggers
hail from Des Moines, la. . They
brought with them a snappy band.
A parade, they said. And parade
it was. They organized one of their
own, martialed their patrol into line,
commandeered a few auto trucks and
loaded the women members of their
party into them and, presto! they
were off.
And oh, the girls from della of
Dallas. Hella did not mind band play
ing, patroling, chanting or doing any
thing like that, but those Texas beau
ties were treated like queens. Pala
tial autos and trucks were chartered
for them arfd they visited the city
escorted by the band and patroL You
should have heard the cheers. But
perhaps you did, or were one of those
who cheered.
El Riad of Sioux Falls dispensed
music and held another parade.
Southern Sonsra Appeal.
Tangier of Omaha did the same,
while at the same time Tangier no
bles were welcoming Portlanders to
their magnificent headquarters in the
Multnomah hotel.
Then Kosair. Kosair only arrived
last night in its big Louisville spe
cial with over 200 nobles and their
wives.
But a few minutes later the big
Kosair band was heading its own lit
tle relatively speaking parade.
And everytime they stoDoed the
band would be subdued and the Kosair
chanters, handsome as Arab chief
tains in white with dark purple
cloaks, sang the songs of the south.
And the crowd cheered. It cheered
from sheer delight and happiness.
There was Afifi of Tacoma. which
has already unloaded two specials
in Portland and has a third on the
way today. Afifi chartered trucks
and bore its cheering nobles and
women and its bully band all over
the city.
Canadwiani on Hand.
From far-away Al Hazar, Calgary,
Alta-, came its band with its snappy
kilted patrol. And when they started
their wanderings over the streets,'
Glzeh, from Victoria, B. C joined in,
from a fellow feeling that Canucks
should get together.
Murat's nomad band quickly drew
a large following of Hoosiers and
former Hoosiers. And the crowd
laughed long at the antics of "Pink"
Hall, who bears the title of "Black
Rajah of the Desert."
"Pink" is a real comedian, and the
Murat lads borrowed him from a
roadshow to bring to Portland. The
real leader of the band is W. S.
Mitchell.
Nile swung into line, headed by
Harvey J. "Woods, and they "smiled
with Nile." So did the crowd.
And so it was. Perhaps there were
a score of others, birt who could see
them all? They swung into line, they
disbanded, but they did their best to
have a good time and to let every
one who heard them have the best
time possible.
OAKS ENTERTAINS 14,600
Audience Sees "Hogan In Egypt,"
"Written, for Event.
Camels and Shrine emblems out
lined in fire formed part of the
spectacular aerial programme' put on
last night by Manager Cordray of the
Oaks, who was host to 14,600 visitors

mitted free, to take part .in the
Shrine entertainment.
A portion of the fireworks, espe
cially the bombs and rockets, had
been designed especially for the San
Francisco exhibition and this was the
first time they had been shown here.
Special set pieces included a camel
with a Bedouin on its back, the
Shrine emblem, a "Welcome to Port
land" and an Al Kader fez. There
was also a performing monkey on
a horizontal bar, which provided
plenty of comic features as long as
the illumination lasted.
One feature not on the original pro
gramme was the exhibition given by
one of the fire boats. The auditor
ium, seating 3000 people, was packed
by those who witnessed the Shrine
show, "Hogan in Egypt," a sketch
written for the event and presented by
the Adeiphia Musical Comedy com
pany.

PROJECT IS WELL BACKED
Another Meeting to Farther Enter
prise Will Be Called to Be
Held in Seattle Soon.
BOISE, Idaho, June 21. (Special.)
Plans were perfected at a confer
ence held in Boise today by represen
tatives from Idaho, Washington, Ore
gon and Montana for. the formation
of what will be known as the North
western Reclamation association. The
plans were outlined by a delegation
of Spokane business men, who ap
peared before the conference. The
purpose is to meet the competition
that is expected from an organization
perfected in southern states.
Governor Davis of Idaho opposed
the plan on the ground that the
Western States Reclamation associa
tion had been organized and could
take up the same work as the pro
posed northwestern association. He
was supported by Major Reed, secre
tary of the Idaho Reclamation asso
ciation; ex-Governor Spry of Utah
and others. Frank R. Gooding, for
mer governor of the state, spoke In
favor of the plan. The opposition was
modified when it was explained that
tne purpose was to supplement the
Western States Reclamation associa
tion and assist it in its work.
Meeting tp Be Called.
The governors of the four states
will issue a proclamation calling for
a more general conference, to be held
In Seattle September 16 and 17. The
representatives and senators of the
four states will also indorse the call.
The Spokane delegation, which pre
sented the plan, included: President
Gilbert of the Spokane chamber of
Commerce; N. W. Durham, chairman
of the Columbia river basin project
committee of the Spokane chamber;
W. H. Linney, of the board of trus
tees, Spokane chamber; J. A. Ford,
executive secretary of the Spokann
chamber; R. R. Rogers, prominent
business man of Spokane, and R. D.
Kelly, of the Spokane Advertising
club.
President Gilbert was introduced to
the meeting by W. N. Sweet, president
of the Boise Chamber of Commerce,
and in his short talk emphasized the
fact that reclamation needs the united
errorts of all the states of the north
west and southwest in order to be
recognized in the east. He paid a
compliment to the work the state of
Idaho has been doing along the lines
of reclamation in developing a trail
to be followed by the other states.
He also told of the promise of co
operation by Portland... Spokane and
Tacoma toward the development of
their hinterland.
ltm Held NmuarT.
Mr. Gilbert introduced N. W. Dur
ham, chairman of the Columbia basin
project committer of the Spokane
chamber, who made the principal talk
of the-, morning. Mr. Durham went
nto the matter of what could h ditnn
for reclamation thoroughly and asked
that the state of Idaho help in the
organization of a league In the four
northwestern states, so that the de
velopment on this section will receive
recognition in the eyes of congress
and the east.
