DEATH IS DISCUSSED
AS ALEXANDER SINKS
Greek Premier Says It Is Nec
essary to Be Prepared.
.SUCCESSOR IS CONSIDERED
Trench and English Candidates
for Crown Are Not Taken
Seriously, Report.
ATHEX3, Oct. 24. The condition of
King Alexander today remained most
grave, a bulletin Issued at 1 P. M.
by Professor Delbet, the French epe-
' cialist, said. . -
Premier Venizelos today said he
hoped for King Alexander's recovery
but that it was necessary to be pre
pared in case of his death. He be
lieved Prince Paul, brother of King
Alexander, would not be prevented
from taking the throne by former
King Constar.tine, as Constantine, he
declared, would learn from the com
ing elections that there was no pros
pect for his return.
The premier asserted that English
or French candidates for the throne
"were not being considered.
PLOTS ENMESH ILL KING
Grim Struggle Is Going on tor
Succession to Throne.
ROME, Oct. 24. (Special Cable.)
Intrigues and conflicts thicken round
the sickbed of Greece's king for the
crown which he has not left yet,
though the threads of his life grow
thinner as the poison holds his sys
tem. While his condition is scientif
ically hopeless, his fight for life is
hardly grimmer than the struggles
ef the remainder of the royal family
for succession to the throne.
Republicans' Influence with the
government and the country is wan
ing. Opinion that Greece is unfit
yet for a republic gains ground. But
while Prince Andrew, uncle of the
king, 1a restlessly pacing a room in
the Roman hotel, wher,e he is kept
by Venizelos' thoughtful care in the
matter of passports, two more candi
dates in the numerous royal family
are pushing their claims in Athens
with all the force possible from dis
tant exile. Both are ex-King Con
etantine's eons. One, Prince George,
xnarrted Marie Bonaparte.
Paul, the ex-king's second son, has
at far better chance of stepping into
Alexander's shoes. But here too is a
hitch. Paul is only allowed to suc
ceed on condition that his lather re
nounces all claims to the crown and
also swears to refrain from interfer
ence in Greek affairs and recognizes
publicly Paul and Paul's issue alone
of the whole Gluksberg- family as
having any right at any time to the
kingship of Greece. Prominent follow
ers of tfie ex-king assured me today
that Constantine never will consent
to such conditions, thus leaving Venl-'
zelos one alternative, namely, invita
tion of a foreign, probably British,
prince to reign but irot rule over
Greece.
This invitation cannot be sent' until
the ' national constituent assembly
agrees to the weighty step.
On the other hand. Paul's succes
sion would be far simpler, as parlia
ment has the power to 6ffer the
crown to iny member of the Gluks
berg family the cabinet may indicate,
and for this very reason factions in
crease as one member of the family
after another puts1 forth claims
through their separate influences at
Athens.
MONKEY IS ANGERED BY KING
Alexander Bitten by Animal De
fending Mate, It Is Said.
(Copyrlslit by the New York World. Pub
lished by Arraiwement.)
LONDON. Oct. 24. (Special cable.)
Various versions have appeared of
the incident, or accident, which-caused
the serious illness of Alexander,
King of the Hellenes. The following
account is given by a trustworthy
newspaper of Athens, the Estia:
"King Alexander was walking in
the grounds of his palace at Tatoi
(about 16 miles out of Athens), wfth
his Chamberlain, M. Sturn, October 4.
They approached a spot where a fe
male monkey was chained. The king,
as usual, had with him his jvoir
hound. Fritz. As soon as the don
saw the monkey IrV sprang at her.
The king and M. Sturn had great
difficulty in separating the strug
gling animals.
"Suddenly the monkey's mate ap
peared from the surrounding shrub
bery, jumped into the fray and drove
his teerh into the king's left thigh.
Servants ran up and wrenched the
monkey away. "
"The king's flesh was severely
- ripped and lacerated. But the male
monkey s determination to defend his
mate was not yet satisfied. Scarcely
had he been plucked from the king's
leg when he sprang at Alexander
again and bit his hand, making -a
wound quite as bad as the fy-stv The
Infuriated beast was finally driveil
off and chained."

As people came from churches rin
Portland yesterday they wete be

Miss Salmon learned of Mts. Shu
man's divorce suit just a few hours
before train time. The fact that she

STATE REPUBLICANS UNIT
CHAMBERLAIN TO LOSE BY
2 0,0 00, SAYS H. Ii. TOOZE.
Harding' Will Carry Oregon by
100,000 Is Campaigner's Pre
diction; Party Undivided.
BENDi Or.. .'Oct. 24. (Special.)
Harding and Coolidge will carry Ore
gon by 100,000 votes, and Stanfield
will defeat Chamberlain for the sen
ate by a majority of from 20,000 to
40.000, Walter L. Tooze predicted here
last night, speaking at the most en
thusiastic republican rally of the
campaign.
Declaring that the Underwood tariff
is bringing ruin to the stockmen of
eastern Oregon and is suffocating. the
industry and prosperity of the nation,
the speaker pointed out emphatically
that it would be folly to elect a re
publican president and tie his hands
by putting in a democratic senate.
"For the first time. Chamberlain
faces an undivided republican party,"
he said. " "Be consistent, and when
you vote for' Harding, send Stanfield
to help him."
If you enter Into this contract
which President Wilson and Governor
Cox advocate, jou are mortgaging
your sons to Europe, he cried.
Haven t we done enough as it Is
without pledging ourselves to guard
the territory which European powers
acquired during the war?
"And by the way. why hasn't the
league prevented the 20 European
wars which have been waged since
the world war ended? We are for
an association of nations which will
bring teace. but we refuse to be the
victims again."
Turning to the senatorial race for
a moment, Tooze accused Chamber
lain of conducting a "pussyfoot" cam
paign, charging that the democratic
candidate is not running as a demo
crat, although on the ticket of that
party. "Talking politics would ruin
him that s the reason," he said.
AGED WOMEN LOSE WINE
2 0 GALLONS IX HOME FOR G
A. R. WIDOWS TO BE SEIZED.
T. C. T. V. Officials of Washing

SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 24. (Spe
cial.) On the" complaint of a delega
tion of officials of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union for west
ern Washington, headed by the presi
dent. Miss Mary E. Brown, Donald A.
McDonald, prohibition director for the
state of Washington, yesterday issued
orders for the seizure of 20 gallons of
blackberry wine at the home for the
aged and indigent widows of civil
war veterans maintained, at Puyallup
by the ladies of the. Grand Army of
the Republic and other patriotic or
ganizations. John Q. Montgomery. In
charge of the federal prohibition of
flees in Tacoma, has been delegated to
go to the institution and make the
confiscation.
"On Information supplied by offi
cers of the Woman's Christian Tem
perance Union the matter of the
home-made wine has been under in
vestigation for some time," declared
Mr. McDonald. "According to the in
formation at hand, the wine was
made by employes of the home, and
whether it was for the us of the in
mates for medicinal purposes I do not
know."
The director stated that, fearing
that some of the aged women domi
ciled at -the home may need wine as
a tonic for their physical well being,
his department has made a thorough
investigation of the case. He said
that if liquor is needed for medicinal
purposes by any of the inmates It will
be supplied through the authority to
furnish alcoholic liquors for use In
hospitals and for the treatment of the
sick. -

LUMBERJACKS WORK

Defeat" of Democrats- and
Tariff Policy. Sought.
GUARDS FUTURE INDUSTRY
r
John W. Miller Declares Timber
Workers of All Political Faith
See Hope In Harding.
'O n r ef the unusual features of
this campaign," declared John W.
MiHer, lumberman,' at the Imperial
hotel yesterday, "Is the jnterest
workers In the logging camps and at
the sawmills are taking In the elec
tion. It 'la unprecedented In my ex
perience. They are not only going
down the line for Harding' for presi
dent, Stanfield for United States sen
ator and the whole republican ticket.
but are getting out and working for
the republican sucesss.
"This applies to men of all political
faiths, democrats, socialists and the
rest of them. The fact seems to have
come home in the past two or three
weeks that if present high wages are
to prevail in the lumber industry,
Oregon lumber must be protected by
tariff from ruinous competition of
Canadian lumber and shingles.
Tariff Blamed for "Dumping;."
"A lot has been said about the
'dumping into this country made pos
sible by the democratic Undwrwood
tariff law of wool and hides from
Australia, meat from South America,
eggs from China, butter from New
Zealand and wheat from Canada. But
I have not seen emphasis placed on
the similar "dumping" of lumber and
shingles from Canada, jwhich is just
as serious a danger to the people of
Oregon. In fact, lumber is this state's
greatest single industry and what
ever the lumber industry is pinched,
the northwestern territory feels It.
"To the lumber industry, and this
includes lumberjacks in the woods
and mill hands In towns as well as
men who own the timber and th
mills, a protective tariff on lumber
and its by-products is an absolute
necessity. One cause for the slump in
lumber now is the' competition from
British Columbia markets. The north
west simply must have a protective
tariff for Its lumber..
"For salvation we can look only
to the 1 republicans, for the democra
tic policy now. as it always has been,
Is no protection for American prod
ucts except In the solid south. No
one wants to see wages of the thou
sands' of employes in the lumber in
dustry reduced. But . unless the indus
try receives protection, reduced wages
ana idleness Dotn will follow.
Lamber Markets Needed.
"We must have markets for our
lumber and our shingles, and when
Canada can undersell us In our home
field by reason of the Underwood tar
iff law and Chinese cooley labor,
which permits importation of Cana
dian products without duty,, our best
markets are taken from us.
"The men working in the lumber
industry are realizing this, and that
Is the reason for the activity I have
mentioned for the republican ticket.
They are for Harding and-they are
for Stanfield, because they know
that to be effective and to bring about
needed tariff protection, the new re
publican administration must be
backed up with a republican senate.
With the race for control of the sen
ate close as it is between republicans
and democrats, it would be a' terrible
misfortune, indeed. If the vote of a
democratic ' senator from Oregon
should be the controlling factor that
would turn the senate over to the
democrats and block the republican
programme.
'"For that reason Robert N. Stan
field will receive a very heavy vote
soq oux 'jfj-jsnpu; jaquint sm uioji
are out working for him among their
friends."

SCARCITY OF TELEPHONE EQUIPMENT
As new subscribers a number of individuals have recently
placed orders with us for telephones. Old subscribers have asked
for. service at new locations. They have been told by our repre
sentatives that immediate compliance with their desires was
impossible owing to lack of "telephone facilities" in a particular
locality. "Why," one will say, "The poles and wires are on the
street and the house is already wired." .
We wish that the problem were as simple as it sounds. There
may be poles and wires, but every wire may be in use in giving
service to others. There may be a cable, but every circuit in it
'may be assigned to telephones already installed. There may be
-spare wires and circuits but no switchboard apparatus at the
central office to which they can be connected. There may even
be sections of switchboard but not available for operation on
account of the lack of necessary accessories such as ringing keys,
relays, etc.
The reason for the shortage of telephone equipment is simple.
During the war period we were unable to maintain our reserve
or stock plant as the same materials we use were required and
taken for Government purposes and for industries properly
favored by the Government. Since the war, with the. unexpect
edly prolonged problems of reconstruction, production &nd deliv
ery of materials needed to meet even current demands have been
delayed. Every business concern is having similar experiences.
The manufacturers of telephone equipment have been bending
every effort to fill our orders, but they in turn are meeting the
same difficulties in securing rubber, paper, silk,- glass, porcelain,
tin, thread, shellac, metal parts and other articles not generally
associated in the public mind with telephone service. .
At the. same time with this abnormal situation with reference
to materials there exists an unprecedented demand for telephone
service, and even under these circumstances our record is one of
fulfillment of demand- In the first eight months of this year we
have added 6863 telephones in the State of Oregon. In the eight
months prior to our declaration of war we gained 2655 telephones.
We desire to give service as much as a patron wishes to
" receive it. We desire to promptly comply with the suggestions of
public authorities who have taken a proper interest in the situa
tion. We are facing abnormal conditions but we will of neces
sity gradually overcome our difficulties.
