ROOSEVELT ATTACKS
i'S ATTITUDE

CANDIDATE USES SARCASM
Tennessee Senate's Action- In Rati
fying Suffrage Pleasing,
A v e r s Xoin 1 n ee .
ST. PAUL, Minn.. Aup. 13. Declaring-
the republican attitude on suf
frage and the league of nations is
'as clear as mud," Franklin D. Roose
velt, democratic vice-presidential
nominee, tonight expressed wonder as
to how the republican attitude on
these and "every other public ques
tion can possibly maintain business
confidence.'
His address tonight followed a noon
address in Minneapolis, where he de
clared Senator Harding- was "trying
to syndicate the presidency," a con
dition under which, he said, tonight",
a "few of the 'old guard crowd would
get in on the ground floor."
Mr. Roosevelt tonight referred to
Senator Harding's position on the
suffrage question as indicating the re
publican presidential candidate "ap
parently is . careful to wait until the
last moment before committing him
self to any definite policy" on aa
issue.
TVnnewnce Action Pleases Candidate.
Referring to divergent interpreta
tions "two great republican dailies in
New York" placed on Mr. Harding's
attitude toward the league of nations.
Mr. Roosevelt said, "We need definite
action, clear policies. It is only
through these that the business of the
country can remain stabilized."
In his address tonight Mr. Roose
velt said:
"I am particularly pleased with
news of the ratification of the wom
an's suffrage amendment by the Ten
nessee senate.
"This seems a peculiarly appropri
ate moment to call attention to the
suffrage record of the . republican
nominee. This record is typical of his
record on almost every other Impor
tant piece of legislation in his whole
public career.
"In his reply to the delegation of
suffragists who interviewed him June
14, 1915. he gave this illuminating
answer: 'Believing as I do in political
parties and government through polit
ical parties, I had much rather that
the party to which I belong should in
Its con fere nces make a declaration
than to assume a leadership or take
an individual position on the ques
tion.' Harding Is Ridiculed.
"Later he again told the suffragists
thp.t it would be presumptuous for
him to dictate to his party.
"I want to emphasize that it was
not until the final successful ballot
was taken in the senate June 4. 1919.
. that Senator Harding finally climbed
On the band wagon and voted 'yes.'
"A record of this kind speaks for
Itself.
"I want to refer to the needs of a
class of labor which has so far been
grossly and inexcusably overlooked. I
refer particularly to the pay of school
teachers. We cannot expect education
to be up to American standards unless
those who impart that education are
paid and live according to the highest
American standard.
X AT I OX AL FOOD DK A L FA Y OKED
.Roosevelt Says Tariff Issue Has
Been Taken Out or Politics.
MINNEAPOLIS. Aug. 13. Franklin
D. Roosevelt, entering the northwest
today on his campaign trip to the
Pacific coast, urged tnat the food sup
ply of the country be supplied on a
national or international basis.
Mr. Roosevelt promised' that if a
democratic administration is returned
to power, "we shall view these prob
lems In the large."
Ref3ring to remarks attributed to
Senator Harding that the tariff issue
is a "prominent feature of his cam
paign," Mr. Roosevelt declared the
tariff issue was taken out of politics
seven or eight years ago. "to every
body's satisfaction."
"We have only scratched the sur
face of successful national govern
ing. We can never go back, for in
stance, to the days of a billion-dollar
congress," he declared. "Problems
that once were local and could be
handled locally today have become
national and international.
"Twenty-five years ago what you
were doing in the northwest with
your crops, and your livestock was
not of very great importance to peo
ple in the east or to people in other
lands.
"Today the national government
must exert itself, more and more, in
this problem of food production and
distribution," he continued.
"My plea," Mr. Roosevelt continued,
"is that in these matters we become
more national-minded. The world
war has shown us that this piece
meal, hit-or-miss method must end."

park pool both registered more than
1000 swimmers each day during the
past three days of the heat wave.
It was a gala day at Peninsula
Park for the women and girls. The
pool Is used on alternate days for
boys and girls. Thursday the number
of boys who splashed in the cool tank
was well over the thousand mark
and yesterday the girls crowded the
bathing facilities there to the limit.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon hun
dreds of girls, old and young, big
and little, were in the tank, from wee
toddlers of 5 to matrons of 50,
all engaged in beating the weather
man at his own game.
Children Alio Wade.
In the wading pools in Peninsula
Park the little boys and girls in
various stages of undress waded and
splashed and rolled in the shallow
water while the mothers enjoyed the
scene from the 'cool shade of the park
benches, wielding fans in a winning
battle against the heat.
Officials of the Oregon Humane
society reported that many thought
less persons who left in a hurry for
the beach resorts or out-of-town pic
nics have left cats locked up in the
empty houses without access to water
or food. Two instances of dogs left
tied up in deserted houses and suffer
ing from lack of water were reported.
Even goats have been left staked out
in pastures while their owners were
making all speed to get away from
the heat. Humane society officials
state that strenuous measures will be
taken against careless owners who
leave their pets behind them to suffer
in this manner.
Although the weather man does not
promise -relief from the heat during
the next 24 hours, it is believed that
the west and northwest winds wiil
relieve the situation to a certain ex
tent. THE DALLES SUFFERS IX 107

section has experienced for many
years, the temperature at 4 o'clock
registering 107 degrees.
Thus, Friday, the thirteenth, may

The hottest days thus far this
month were August 4, 100; August 7,

So far, the 13 days in the month have
been hotter than the whole 30 days of
most Augusts, the average dally tem
perature being 96 degrees, though
August, 1914, did for the whole
month equal that but not surpass it.
The coolest day wa when the mer

VANCOUVER, Wash., Aug. 13.
(Special.) While many thought that
today was hotter than yesterday, the
thermometer registered 95, two de
grees cooler than Thursday, according
to A. A. Quarnberg, government
weather observer here. The hot spell
has driven many from the city to the
beaches and the mountains, a num

American Merchandise Lying on
Wharves Unclaimed by Consignees.
SAX FRANCISCO, Aug. 13. (Spe
cial.) Millions of dollars' worth of
American merchandise is rotting and
rusting upon the wharves and freight
boats of Japan, because consignees
have either refused or neglected to
accept their shipments, according to
H. C. Guild, who returned from Japan
today, after an unsuccessful attempt
to establish an autojnobile factory in
that country.
Guild says that the Japanese mer

Outlook Hopeful Also In Xorth Car
olina legislature Governor
Urges Ratification.
NASHVILLE, Tenn.. Aug. 13. The
Tennessee senate today by a vote of
25 to 4 adopted the resolution pro
viding for ratification of the federal
suffrage amendment. Even the most
optimistic of the suffrage forces
were surprised at the large majority.
Seventeen votes were necessary, but
most po;is had listed from 20 to 22
as favorable.
The suffragists have proceeded
with the expectati6n thai, the real
fight would be in the lower house
and the senate vote had hardly been
announced before the workers were
redoubling efforts to secure favor
able action by the representatives.
The house adjourned until Monday
at 2 o'clock without reference to
suffrage, but tt was stated that the
committee to which the resolution
was referred would meet Monday
night to consider it.
Senate Galleries Packed.
An hour before the senate con
vened the galleries were packed with
spectators. Speaker Todd had little
difficulty in silencing the onlookers
throughout the two hours' debate
during whichthere were numerous
demonstrations. But when the. 17th
vote in favor of ratification was
recorded the pent up enthusiasm of
the suffrage cohorts went beyond re
straint and forced a temporary
suspension of the roll call. The suf
fragists redoubled their cheers when
the clerk shouted the total above the
uproar.
In reply to the charge of Senator
Chandler, republican, and suffrage
opponent, made during debate today,
that Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, presi
dent of the National American Woman
Suffrage association, had advocated
inter-marriage between whites and
negroes, Mrs. Catt tonight, in a
formal statement characterized it as
"an absolute fabrication."
Senator Chandler said he had based
his remarks on a published Inter
view with Mrs. Catt in which she was
quoted as having Baid "suffrage
knows no bias of race, color or sex."
NORTH CAROLINA BATTLE OX
Suffrage Forces Score In Senate
Opening Fight.
RALEIGH. N. C, Aug. 13. Ratifica
tion advocates held the advantage to
night in the North Carolina fight over
ratitication of the federal suffrage
amendment as a result of 'develop
ments today. These included a spe
cial message by Governor Bickett,
urging ratification, and a favorable
report on a ratification resolution by
a senate committee.
Although the victory of suffrage
supporters in committee appeared
overwhelming a vote of seven to
one for a favorable report being re
corded the action merely marks the
beginning or an expected bitter con
test. The suffrage leaders were given
new hope by the governor's plea, but
his statement that personally he was
against the amendment served to bol
ster up antagonists.
While leaders of the suffrage group
In the senate were confident of ulti
mate victory in their chamber, they
said frankly that no such ratio of
affirmative votes as was recorded in
committee could be maintained on the
final rollcail.
Anti-suffragists claim defeat of any
ratification measure in the house, 63
of the 120 members of which sent a
message to the Tennessee legislature
asking defeat of the suffrage resolu
tion. Action on the resolution in the
senate probably will come Tuesday.
Declaring that women should have
the first right to speak when the Is
sue is "whether or not the world shall
henceforth be ruled by reason and
righteousness or by blood and iron,"
Governor Bickett, in a special mes
sage today called upon the North
Carolina legislature to accept "the in
evitable and ratify the federal woman
suffrage amendment."
The governor warned his demo
cratic friends that the most they
would be able to do by defeating the
ratification would be to delay "for
six months a movement you are pow
erless to defeat." He urged them to
accept it as the part "of wisdom and
of grace," adding that within the pe
riod of a few1 months "some other
state will open the door and women
will enter the political forum."
"We may just as well realize, gen
tlemen," the governor continued, "that
this country is no longer an associa
tion of states, but a nation. What
ever a majority of the people of the
nation want is going to be the su
preme law of the land. There is
ancther and far deeper reason for
not delaying the movement we are
powerless to defeat," he said. "The
big question that is going to be set
tled In the next six months is whether
this nation shall entor an alliance
with 29 of the most powerful nations
on earth for the purpose of forever
delivering humanity from the burdens
and horrors of war. On that ques
tion the women have a sacret right
to be heard, for whjn cannon roar
the women furnish the fodder."
Discussing the possiole effect of
equal suffrage on the rate relations,
Governor Bickett said:
- u or is years alter the civil war
all political energies of our people
were absorbed in the struggle to
maintain in our border a white gov
ernment. I greatly fear that woman
suffrage would force us to fight again
the battle lor a white government.'
CHAIRMAX WHITE IS PLEASED
Tennessee Action Lauded by Head
of Democratic Committee.
NEW YORK. Aug. 13. When told
of the passage of the woman suf
frage amendment by the Tennessee
senate today Chairman White of the
democratic national committee said:
"It is most pleasing to the democ
racy of the. nation to know that the
senate of the old volunteer state of
Andrew Jackson has ratified the suf
frage amendment by such a tremen
dous majority.
"It is our confident hope that Ten
nessee, through its other great legis
lative body, will make good the pledge
of the democratic national platform,
thus enfranchising the women . of
America."
Speaker Walker of the Tennessee
house of representatives, urged fav
orable action on the federal suffrage
amendment by that body.
The president eaid:
"May I not. In the Interest of na
tional harmony and vigor and of the
establishment of the leadership of
America In all liberal policies, ex
press the earnest hope that the house
over which you preside will concur
In the suffrage amendment?"

which for a time threatened the en
tire village of Rolling Bay, on Bain-
bridge island, near here today, was
brought under control by the efforts
of 100 volunteer fire fighters after
one building, valued at $5000, had

A call for assistance was sent to
the Seattle fire department and a fire
tug was dispatched but was recalled
when it was found danger ot the

No one can hope to avoid paying his share of the railroad worker's wages and the cost
of new railway extensions and improvements, by merely refusing to travel. "Every pound
of food eaten, every ton of fuel burned, every garment worn and every stick of timber
entering into the construction of homes will contribute its share" to the gigantic total,
reasons the Washington Post, which estimates that it means a per capita tax of $12.00 on
every man, woman and child in the country for higher freight rates alone, and perhaps
$15.00, when all the increases are taken into consideration. In view of such estimates
THE LITERARY DIGEST believes it worth while to gather for its readers the views of
leading authorities in various important industries on the precise effect of the new rates
in their respective fields. In some cases the statements were found in newspaper inter
views, in others they come in response to direct telegram and telephone queries. At any
rate, this summary of opinion has been incorporated in an interesting and instructive
article in THE LITERARY DIGEST for August 14th, 1920. You will wish to read it.

to the canneries, the mills and the

opened at 3:30 and the principal ad
dress was by Senator Charles L. Mc-
Isary on "What Congress Discovered
About Print Paper."
Papers Held Too Big.
The speaker reviewed the shortage
of print paper throughout the coun
try and said the situation on this
coast was not nearly so acute as in
the middle west and east, where the
supply of pulp wood has been ex
hausted and the mills have been
forced to close.
"The greatest thing," he eaid.
"which congress could do for the
conservation of print paper would be
to enact a. law limiting the size of
the big metropolitan Sunday dailies,
which now often reach 200 pages, to
not more than 80 pages." He also
held that newsprint should be placed
under the Lever act co that any at
tempt . to limit the production or to
juggle prices could be followed by
prosecution. Senator McNary spoke
of the necessity for an agreement
with Canada, whereby pulp timber
could be brought from Canada to this
country and be manufactured in
American mills. He said that paper
and pulp could now be imported from
that country, but that logs could
not, although congress had been en
deavoring to make euch an agreement
with the northern neighbor.

write columns upon columns of arti
cles descriptive of your state and its
resources and send them broadcast
throughout the land, and their effect
in results will not equal the stories
told their friends by the tourists, who
have seen and know the opportuni
ties to be found here. Oregon will be

On Basis of Demands Made, Bil
lions of Dollars Will Be Re
quired for All Settlements.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Aug. 13. A check for
$1,600,000 in final settlement of all
that the government owed the Spo
kane, Portland & Seattle railroad at
the end of federal operation, was car
ried by Charles Donnelly, executive
vice-president of the Northern Pa
cific railroad, who departed today for
St. Paul.
Mr. Donnelly came here to present
to the railroad administration the
final claim of the Northern Pacific
against the federal government.
The Northern Pacific's claim is for
S25, 796,397. The Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul railroad has presented a
claim for 25. 900.968.
As there are more than 180 class
one railroads to submit claims, it will
be seen that Uncle Sam is not through
counting the cost of federal operation.
On the basis of six claims already
filed, which include the Northern Pa
cific and Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul, it is estimated that all claims
will aggregate billions of dollars, and
that it will be years before all set
tlements are concluded.
Many of the railroads say frankly
that it will be impossible for them
to assemble their final, reports for a
year or more. The Northern Pacific
claim includes $8,527,394 for under
malntenance of roadbed and tracks,
$7,741,391 for undermaintenance of
equipment, and $953,716 for losses on
additions and betterments. Of the
Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul claim
approximately $16,000.000 Is for loss
due to the failure of the government
to keep up equipment to the standard
in which the road was when taken
over.
It is contended that many expendi
tures were made by the government
for betterments that were necessary
only for war purposes.

Rheumatism. Tou may use them by
the gallon, and rub the painful parts
by the hour, getting possibly some
temporary relief from the torturing
pains., but you are making no head
way whatever toward reaching the
cause of the disease.
Medical scientists differ as to the
causes of every form of rheumatism,
but agree that when caused by a tiny
disease germ the only effective meth
od of treatment is to attack the dis
ease at its source, and cleanse the
blood of its cause.
The most common form of Rheuma
tism is caused by millions of tiny dis
ease germs which Infest the blood
The one'and only sensible treatment,
therefore, is one which cleanses the
blood of these germs and routs them
entirely out of the circulation.
This is why S. S. S.. the greatest
known blood purifier, is so successful
in the treatment of Rheumatism. It
is a powerful cleanser of the blood
and will remove the disease germs
that cause your Rheumatism, afford
ing relief that is genuine.
S. S. S. is sold by all druggists. Free
literature and medical advice can be
