"Old Lady 31," which will oven at the I'eoplea theater today. Wallace McCamant, charged by Hi ram W. Johnson with betraying the republican voters of Oregon because McCamant refused to vote for John son in the Chicago convention, replies that If Johnson "were a gentleman of refined sensibilities, a study of the election returns from California In 1916 would make him a humbler and better man." Judge McCamant comes back at the Johnson attack, published In The Or egonlan, in part as follows: "In Senator Johnson's attack on me published this morning there are three specifications: ' "1. That I had committed myself to hts support by my publication In the voters' pamphlet. "2. That in any event a delegate is bound to vote In accordance With the expressed will of the voters. "2. That in nominating Coolidge In the convention I said 'unblushingly that I did so following the Instruc tions of the people of Oregon. Johnson Support Excepted. "During the campaign I declared more than a hundred times in the presence of men and women of vari ous political affiliations that if elect ed a delegate I would support the candidate who carried the primaries, always provided that I would not sup port Hiram Johnson. I so informed the management of the Wood, Lowden and Johnson campaigns. I filed with the credentials committee at Chicago an affidavit that I had made this statement to Sanfleld MacDonaid. manager of Johnson's camDaitrn in Oregon, on or about March 7. This affidavit has never been controverted. During the primary campaign I so etated my position to representatives or tne fortland Telegram. Oregon Voter. Albany Herald, Corvallis Ga-sette-Tlmes and Medford Mail Trib une. AH of these newspaper men were at liberty to publish -my state ment, but I was one of 80 candidates for election as delegate. There was assurance that Johnson would carry the primaries and the matter was probably regarded as of no pub lic Interest. "My slogan on the ballot was 'For president, 'an American, a republican and a statesman.' It is safe to iv that each of the 38,000 electors who voted for me read this slogan. I was unuer an obligation to these electors to vote for a man who fills these qualifications. Johnson does not. His Americanism is doubtful at best be cause of his advocacy of the recall of judicial decisions, and because of the class hatred he endeavors to arouse. ne is not entitled to be called a re publican because of the large respon sibility attaching to him for the pres ence in the White House of a demo cratic president for seven years last past, and also because it took him a month to decide whether he would support the republican ticket this year. He is not a statesman because he is thoroughly self-centered. I voted on every ballot for General Leonard Wood, who possesses the above qualifications and who is a good sportsman besides. 1 know that I received support at the primaries because of my outspoken opposition to Johnson and I do not know of a dozen Johnson men who supported me. Sanfield MacDonaid had agreed to support me and I told him that as Johnson's manager he ought not to do so. Illinois Voting; Cited. "Senator Johnson is estODDed to urge his contention that a delegate is bound at all events to vote for the candidate who trevailn k. primaries in his state.

"The statute under which T the ballot exacts no pledge and con tains no instruction. In such case a delegate is entitled to regard the vote at the primaries as advisorv nnlv and Oregon is the only state where a contrary contention is advanced. "The republicans of Oregon did not desire the nomination of Senator Johnson. This is proved by the de feat of Johnson's delegate ticket. Johnson received. 38 per cent of the vote t the primaries and from en to 90 per cent of the vote of the state In the convention. He received more m ii 5 urn due. Charge Held L'ntrne. "The answer to Senator Johnson's mira charge is that it is untni. never stated that the Oregon delega tion to the convention was inatmM.H for Coolidge. In the same letter in which he makes this utterly false statement Senator Johnson calls me a liar. "Of all men in public life. Senator Johnson should be most chary of usiuk ine woras. juaas, traitor and hypocrite.' In 1916 he was th re. publican candidate for senator from California.

It is he simple Narrative of "Angie" Rose, he kind of woman that your mother is and mine, and CaDtain Abe Rose. er Improvident husband. Through unshine and 6torm these twain have walked down life's pathway hand in ana always sweethearts. Even when poverty comes to bow their gray heads and they see their ome and Its precious treasures going nder the auctioneer's hammer, their evotion is undimmed. Angie plans a end her days in the old ladies' home. Abe is reconciled to the alms house. But at the gate of the home for aged women th anguish of part ing overcomes them. Finally Abe is taken into the home along with his faithful mate, and. properly ticketed as "old lady 31," he enters into the daily life of the Insti- ution as the only male In an Eden of faded spinsters and antique "widder women." For a while all goes well. Then Abe can stand it no longer. "I dunno whether I'm a man or a woman," he wails, and he runs away. What happens after that is devel oped in Rachel Crotaers' most adroit style, in a drama that is as fragrant as an old-fashioned garden, as tender and human as a grandmother's memo ries. As a stage play, with Kmma Dunn playing Angie, "Old Lady 31" proved a sensational New York suc cess and is still playing throughout the civilized world.

Motion pictures will play an Impor tant part In the republican campaign this year, according to . William A. Grant, who is In charge of the motion picture division of the republican na tional committee, with offices in New York. For several weeks rumors have been afloat in the tndusrty to the effect that several producing and distributing concerns had signed with the republican, national committee to boost republican candidates. These reports were Bpiked by Mr. Grant. who said that while the republican national committee is desirous of ob taining all the publicity It can pos sibly get, it has not closed a contract with any firm. "We are going about it more sys tematically than ever before," said Mr. Grant, "but there is absolutely nothing to the reports that we have signed "up with any concern. Ve will d,o'all our picture campaigning through the news weeklies for the reason that these pictures will have a news value. We will have stereop ticon slides of our candidates and those exhibitors in sympathy with us can have them. Of course, if any of the picture folk want to help, why, we'll be ever so much obliged and perhaps some day we will be in a position to return the favor. But so far as having a contract with any picture organization, that is not so." The Sol Lesser organiatlon Is now completing distribution plans for "That Something," the Inspirational picture dedicated to the Rotary Clubs of the World and written by a brother of George Woodbridge, sec retary of the Tacoma Rotary club. The Initial plans call for an open ing at one of the Broadway houses in New York city for an extended engagement. Max Roth, general man ager for Sol Lesser, is now organiz ing a. staff of efficient men who are acquainted with the distribution of pictures of this type, and already contracts have been closed with some of the largest industrial organiza tions in New York city, who, realiz ing the message that this picture car ries, are desirous of having all their employes see It. Mr. Lceser is in, receipt of numerous letters of indorsement from leading business men all over the United States. These letters also include in dorsements from ministers, school teachers,- heads of the board of edu cation and other welfare organiza tions, who all realize the theme this picture carries. A big publicity and advertising campaign under the supervision of Maurice Meyers will b inaugurated immediately. The co-operation of the Rotary clubs is one of the main angles which will be used In this campaign which will cover a world wide area. Ralph Lewis, has been signed by Louis B.

That the proposed increase in freight rates asked for by the railroad com panies is unfair, in that it puts the whole burden of makng up the defi cit in income on freight alone, is the belief of Joseph N. Teal, who repre sented Portland shipping interests at the recent hearing before the inter state commerce commission at Wash ington. Speaking before the Portland Traffic and Transportation association meet ing and banquet at the chamber of commerce Thursday nlgbt, Mr. Teal explained in detail the arguments ad vanced by the railroad Interests to Justify their contention for higher rates. In the first place, he asserted, the railroad companies arrived at their figures regarding the deficit and the per cent of increase to cover the loss by the simple process of taking the total net revenue for the year 1919 as a basis, subtracting this amount from the figure represented by the S per cent on the total investment which the law allows. This gave them a deficit running well over the, billion mark, he said. The danger of a flat increase in frelcht rates was pointed out. Passenger traffic should be made to bear a part of the burden of the pro posed increase, said Mr. Teal. There was no reason, he urged, why the rreight rates should be the ones to suffer alone. An evenly distributed increase would not be so dangerous, he said. The interstate commerce commission has completed the hearing on the pro posed increase. Its decision will prob ably not be announced before next month. LABOR WATCHING MILK Central Council to Investigate Portland 'Distributors.
