arbitrarily.
Delivery Situation Viewed.
Information to the effect that two
producers recently apologized to a
Portland distributor for belonging- to
the league was received yesterday by
Mr. Mackay. To furnish an excuse to
the distributor for ever enrolling in
the league the producers asserted that
they had not wished to join but that
the man who hauls their milk to
market refused to deliver their sup
ply to Portland unless they became
league members. Under existing con
ditions, according to information in
the possession of Attorney Mackay,
the two producers found it necessary
to join the league as they were un
able to obtain another teamster to
haul their milk.
"What power," then inquires Mac
kay, "told the truck driver that he
could not haul the producers' milk
unless they joined the league?"
In Mr. Mackay's report is an excerpt
from a statement in regard to pro
duction costs, furnished by Alma IX
Katz. a prominent league official.

Mr. Roosevelt stated that he hoped

and also that he hoped to see the
president soon.
It was the governor's first day at
the executive office since his nomi
nation. At an informal reception he
spoke to several thousand people,
asserting that he had "never broken
confidence with the people," and add
ing that he had the "deepest convic
tion that the guarantee of progressive
government would be adopted by the
people in the election of Mr. Roose
velt and myself."
The governor received a message
from San Francisco from Wilbur
Marsh, treasurer of the democratic
national committee, stating that 13. H.

convention manager, was seriously

PRICE PLOT IS' CHARGED
(Continued From Flrat Page.)
at a lower price diverts it into other
channels, thus maintaining present
high prices.
Uh to Producer Cited.
According to Mackay'a report, the
league withholds milk from the local
market at a loss but later the loss
is charged back to the producers on
a pro rata basis, thus making the
producer pay for furnishing too
large quantity of milk for dally
consumption.
J. C. Martinazzi, a producer of
Tualatin, became a member of the
league and furnished the league with
2397 pounds of milk, states the re
port. Martinaxzl received for his
mllk.J3.15 a hundred pounds, but the
amount or si.iu was ueuumu num
his check because some of the milk
furnished by him had been surplus.
It was in answer is Martinazzi's re
quest for an explanation of the de
duction that the letter signed by "C.
Douglas Tyler, secretary" of the Ore
gon Co-operative league, was written,
telling the producer that the league
found it impossible to let milk over
flow the market, as prices would in
that event be broken.
"Why." demands Mackay, "was not
that milk sold to the people of Port
land at $7.19 less Instead of diverting
it to a channel which brought a loss
borne by the producer?"
An explanation of the origin of the
league and of its requirements for
enrollment was given by Mackay, he
stating that a charter was issued to
the league by the state on June 3,
1920, and that thereunder the league
is a non-profit-sharing organization
and is composed of the same interests
which operated some years previous
under the name of the Oregon Dairy
men's league. Upon signing the con
tract for membership, says Attorney
Mackay, the new member is required
to pay a fee of 110 to the league, his
membership expiring in 1925.
In his explanation of the history
of the league Mackay states:
"I am informed that the change in
the nature pf tho corporation was
done under the guidance of one Aaron
Sapiro, a lawyer imported from San
Francisco, with the object of reor
ganizing the league so that it would
be beyond the pale of the law pro
hibiting price fixing. That, I am in
formed, is the reason for the nonprofit-sharing
organization. "-
Object Also la Kxplained.
Mackay asserts that the league in
terests also obtained a charter from
the state under the date of June 3,
1920, for the Oregon Dairymen's By
products corporation, capital stock of
which is $502,500.
The oLject of tho league is given
by Mackay as to obtain contracts
from all milk producers in the state,
by the terms of which the producer
agrees, among other things, to sell all
his milk to the leajjue, the league to
fix the price for the producer's milk
and pay him that price after deduct
ing from hi3 check, among other
things, the cott of haufing, commis
sion, a pro rata of loss because of
surplus milk and 1 per cent for ad
vertising purposes. It is said by Mr
Mackay on information received, that
at present the league claims to have
sierned up as members those who fur-
the dairyman rece
an equal amount. In Seattle, said
Mr. Katz, the consumer pays 14 cents
a quart, the dairyman receives 8.24
cents and the distributor receives the
remaining 5.76 cents.
According to the president of the
league, the entire cost of producing
one quart of milk Is 9.53 cents. If
this 'is true, Katz argued, then the
producer is not even receiving pro
duction cost.
Surplus Disposal Dlnouiiard.
In answer, to Mr. Mackay's allega
tions in regard to disposal of the
city surplus, Mr. Katz said that it is
necessary always to provide for the
city's maximum demand. The de
mand is usually less than the maxi
mum, he said, and that only by diver
sion of the surplus milk for sale at
its butter-fat value is the loss to
dairymen lessened.
Mr. Katz also pointed out that if
the rise to S3. 80 is granted it is un
necessary for the distributor to de
mand 16H or 17 cents a quart for
milk as the last milk commission
recommended that the price to the
producer be placed at $3.85 a hun
dredweight and the price to the con
sumer be 14 cents a quart.
"Finally, permit me to say," de
clared Mr. Katz. "that I will per
sonally contribute to a fund for the
employment of certified accountants
who will Investigate the costs of milk
production and distribution, the in
vestigation of the latter to go Into
inefficient as well as efficient dis
tributing plants."

ATLANTIC CITT, N. J., July 12.
(Special.) Displacement of the horse
by the motor vehicle is one of the
causes of high living costs, according
to speakers at the Joint convention
of the Wholesale Saddlery association
and the National Saddlery Manufac
turers association.
Wherever the horse has been taken
off the milk, grocery and ice routes
the cost of these commodities to the
consumer has been raised, the har
ness men said today. "The horse last
winter saved New York much suffer
ing by keeping traffic on the move
when motor vehicles were out of com
mission because of snow. The horse
saved thousands from being frozen in
New England by delivering coal when
trucks were stalled.
statistics from farmers in the
nortnwest show preparation and
planting by horse power costs 42
cents an acre, by .gasoline tractor 60
cents and by steam tractor 70 cents.
Other statistics show short-haul
transportation in cities is cheaper by
33 per cent when horses instead of
motors are used."
Contrary to popular belief, the har
ness makers declare, there are more
horses and mules in this country now
than ever before, but the breeding in
dustry is falling off because the stock
men erroneously fear the horse is be
ing crowded out of industry. The
harness men said they intended to ap
peal to me government for an in
creased 'horse and mule crop.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 12. Sen
ator J. A. Reed tonight made public
questions which he intends to pro
pound to all republican and demo
cratic candidates for senator from
Missouri, relative to their stand on
the league of nations.
The six questions follow the line
of objections Senator Reed has made
to the league of nations. In a state
ment he offers to debate the Question
of whether the league covenant im
pairs American rights, as he has

crop report by the United States
bureau of crop estimates and state
department of agriculture.
The report estimates that 188,241,-
000 bushels will be produced as com
pared to 184,186.000 bushels in 1919
All wheat production was forecast at
3,453.000 bushels less than last year

addressed the delegates and pleaded
for patience.
"Our mills may be grinding slowly,
but we hope they are grinding sure
ly." he said.
Toscan Bennett of Connecticut pre
sented the report of the labor party
and committee of 4S conference com
mittee when the labor party conven
tion convened tonight.
Joint Platform Is Advised.
The report recommended amalga
mation and a joint platform.
Mr. Bennett said the conferees
struck a snag on a party name, the
labor group holding oit for "farmer-
labor.
The labor group, he said, wanted to
hold a Joint convention, but the propo
sit;on was rejected by the committee
of 48.
Farmer delegates caucused today
and approved the proposed "fafmer
labor" title, he announced.
Bennett, in veiled terms, criticised
the attitude of the 48 party conferees
and added he believed "the rank and
file of the committee of 48 are with
us."
3ion-partian Is Heard.
O. W. Thomason, a lecturer for the
National Non-partisan league, enter
tained the 48 convention delegates
with a recital of state enterprises ini
tiated by the league administration
in North Dakota. He said the league
had given union labor all it had asked
and some more.
Swinburne Hale of New York, talk
ing about deportation proceedings of
the federal government, attacked Attorney-General
Palmer and won ap
plause. Hale told his audience that
Parley P. Christensen of Ijtah, per
manent chairman of the convention,
was one "of the first defenders of the
I. W. W." The delegates cheered at
this until Chairman Christensen was
forced to acknowledge them by bow
ing.
Eamonn de Valera, who got a rous
ing reception as he entered the hall.
cut Bhort Hale's talk and was pre
sented as "president of the Irish re
public."
De Valera was applauded when he
said the "Irish question" was an
"American question." He asked for
recognition of the "Irish government"
In Ireland.
A delegation pleading for the inde
pendence of the Indian empire ap
peared before the platform commit
tee.
Duncan McDonald, chairman of the
labor party of Illinois, said there was
no question of the two conventions
getting together. He said he saw no
difference between delegates except
their badges.
Mr. McDonald concluded by say
ing:
"We have a programme: you have
programme. Put them lde by side,
and I think you could clip them in
two and paste them together again
with your eyes shut. Now, if we can
agree on principles, surely no one
will be small enough to stop
technicalities. The time has come to
stand together."
Hale Continue Speech.
Swinburne Hale continued his
speech after the conference report
had been heard.
"There is nothing that stands be
tween the United States and revolu
tion but the new party that is being
formed here, Hale asserted.
"I don't want revolution. Nobody
who was a soldier wants force and
violence. I was a soldier. I'll never
be drafted or serve again in another
war of offense or defense. You hear
that soldiers will not vote for La Fol
lette If -we nominate him here. I'm
one. I know that they will. I know
too, that if they try another war
with Mexico they'll have to fight the
World Veterans to get it over."
Hale got three cheers and a pro
longed demonstration after which the
convention recessed for lunch until
2:30 P. M.
When the resolutions committee of
the committee of 4S resumed the pro
posed Irish plank was taken up. A
committee asking for a plank grant
ing recognition to the Irish republic
was considered first. Several speak-
I ers voiced their opposition to the
proposed Irish plank.
British India Rale Denounced.
British rule in India was denounced
by Taraknath Das of New York,
speaking for the Friends of Freedom
for India.
When Das finished his appeal to
sympathy for Indian independence he
received an ovation, half the conven
tion rising in applause.
After Frank P. Walsh of Kansas
City, and Dudley Field Malone of
New York had presented the argu
ment for a plank advocating recog
nition by this country of the republic
of Ireland, and Demarest Lloyd of
Boston had opposed such a plank, the
Irish question was passed.
Single tax advocates were then in
vited to present their arguments.
Mr. Hard, a writer of Washington
was interrupted by the appearance
of a delegation led by A. G. Hayes
or New lorn, chairman of the con
ference committee. Mr. Hayes an
nounced that the amalgamation
the elements outside of the labor
party and the committee of 48 had
been accomplished. The group h
led, he said, contained representative
of the American constitutional party,
the American party of Texas, the
world war veterans, single tax party.
the non-partisan league and the prj.
vate soldiers and sailors legion.
Motion Cannes Langhter.
Mr. Hayes added that he had every
assurance that the national labo
party would come in; if not that
would go to them." Mr. Hayes the
left to resume the work of the con
ference committee and E. T. O'Laugh
lin of Brooklyn, of the American con
stitutional party, took the floor as
the first speaker for the amalgamat
ing groups.
The convention broke into an up
roar after O'Laughlin s talk when
speakers from the national labo
party entered the hall. Duncan Me
Donald, chairman of the labor party
of Illinois, was led to the platform.
More laughter swept the delegates
when a District of Columbia dele
gate moved that the republican and
democratic parties "be invited to Join
this movement."
Senator Robert M. La Follette of
Wisconsin remained the most-talked-of
candidate for presidential nominee.
The terms of the proposed combine
were understood by the party leaders
to meet his views as expressed last
week to Amos Pinchot "and George
L. Record, of the 48ers.

MIDDLE WESTERN" NEEDS YET
FAR FROM ASSURED.
Operators In Conference Kail to
Work Out Plans Car Short
age Held Responsible.
WASHINGTON, July 12.-Bituminous
oal operators -today failed to work
out a plan to bring about immediate
hlpment of next winters coal to
Minnesota and other middle western
tates, although agreeing that the
problem of obtaining the dumping of
000 carloads daily unMl November at
Great Lakes ports for movement to
hat territory hinged on car supply.
There was no indication that any
concrete plan would be worked out
for the joint conference of the opera-
ors and railroad executives at New
York Wednesday. The operators'
onference, however, will continue to
morrow.
The committee selected to represent
the operators in Wednesday's confer
ence also was chosen as a permanent
ne to function on all questions re
lating to car supply. D. B. Wents,
resident of the National Coal associ
ation, was selected chairman.
General complaint was made by the
perators that the roads were not
trictly obeying the Interstate com
merce commission's 30-day priority
order giving preference to the mines
n the assignment of open top cars.
At a meeting, which was open only
o operators, reports were made that
the average daily delivery of coal for
the northwest amounted to only 16 5
cars, practically one-half of the quali
ty said to be needed as insurance
against a coal famine in the states
at the head of the Jakes next winter
The operators declared the small de-
iveries were due to lack of trans
portation.
Possibility of the re-establishment
of a federal fuel administration also
was understood to have been men-
ioncd. but none of the operators pro
fessed to have any information as to
he government's attitude. Informally
the operators opposed such proposal.

MR. HARDING SEEKS LIGHT
Continued From First Page.)
Poor Boob" Partially Identified
"as J. J. Maloney of Providence,
Himself a Murderer.
CHICAGO. 111.. July 12. (Special.)
Rigid police investigation Is tearing
away the last shred from the claim
of Lieutenant Carl Wanderer that b,e
truly loved the wife he slew.
It was learned today, throueh pas
sionate love notes, that even while he
was planning the killing of his wife
and unborn baby, he was making des
perate love to Julia Schmitt. a 16-
year-old girl, who was unaware he
was married. A batch of his letters to
this girl fell into the hands of the
detectives, but too late to be present
ed to the grand Jury, which today
voted two indictments against Wan
derer, charging him with the murder
of his wife and the "poor boob" to
whom he had promised $1.50 to aid
him in the pretended hold-up of his
wife in the plan to steal her $1500.
Girl Confronts Piiaoner.
Believing that the love affair with
Miss Schmitt might furnish the possi-
ouity or a motive tor the double slay
ing, the 16-year-old girl tonight was
taken again to the criminal court
building, where Wanderer was made
to confront her. Wanderer admitted
having taken the girl to an amuse
ment park.
"Was she the cause of your killing
your wife and the stranger?" he was
asked.
"No, she was merely a side Issue.'
Wanderer responded. "I was tired of
married life."
Later, after an examination, physi
cians pronounced Wanderer sane.
When I returned from the army
and married. I thought I had found
happiness and would never return to
the army," Wanderer said. "I contin
ued to think that way until along in
May or this year, when I got the long
ing ror the army. I also wanted to
get that $1500 from my wife which
she had in the bank. I had saved this
and sent it to her while in the army.
i ne only money 1 squandered fool
ishly was when I took Miss Schmitt
out on taxicab rides six times and this
cost me $60, the bonus money I re-1
celved from the army.
Wanderer's Father Introduced Her.
Miss Schmitt told the state's attor
ney that she was introduced to Wan
derer by his father, who, she said, was
proud of his son's army record.
Mr. Wanderer told all of his cus-'
tomers about his son and I was intro
duced to him in the shop," she said.
Carl took a liking to me and took
me out five times before I learned
through the murders that he was a
married man. Then I told him that I
would have nothing more to do with
him. It was a day or so after the
Fourth of July that he slipped a note
into my hand in the butcher ahop
asking me to meet him for a car ride.
I met him and on this trip I told him
that I would never go out with him
again."
In reply to a question Miss Schmitt
said that Wanderer talked mostly
about his army career. She was al
lowed to go to her home at the con
clusion of the inquiry.
After the physicians declared that
Wanderer had responded to all their
tests the prisoner was taken back to
the detention home.
"Poor Boob" a Murderer.
Partial Identification of the "poor
boob" as J. J. Maloney of Providence,
R. I., shows that he may have been
a murderer himself. Maloney killed a
man in a drunken brawl and dragged
his body to a swamp. He served four
years of a ten-year sentence and was
then paroled upon promise to leave
the state and remain away. His own
people and his wife's relatives spent
all the money they could raise an ef
forts to save him. After his parole
Maloney came to Chicago.
Everything is being sidetracked in
order to put Wanderer on trial as
speedily as possible. He now claims
he can see his wife in his dreams and
that he is anxious to be hanged speed
ily for his crimes. Prison authorities
who are watching him closely say he
is lying about troubled dreams, as he
sleeps like a baby.
Girl "Turns Over Letters.
It was brought out today that Wan
derer had gone out a number of times
with Miss Schmitt before the mur
ders and also after them. The girl
identified him by his pictures in the
newspapers and turned over to the
Btate's attorney the letters he had
written her. She says he always con
ducted himself properly and she con
sidered him absolutely a "nice fel
low." In letters to Miss Schmitt,
which had been torn up but which
detectives pieced together. Wanderer
said:
"I hope, Julia, if you can go no fur
ther, that you will be a true friend to
me. You do not know how happy I
was when I saw you. Some day 1 will
tell you a whole lot more. The reason
I do not come up to your house Is that
people would talk about me. Good
night, little love, and happy dreams
to you. From Carl." t
Her own relatives and church peo
ple who knew Ruth Wanderer say
she was a pure-minded, cheerful girl.
Please do not call her Ruth Wan
derer any more," they pleaded. "Call
republican method. A lot of others
will be found that can best be cor
rected in the same way, and when the
country comes to pass on the pro
gramme it will demand application of
the republican method of correction
directly through the republican administration."
