-far and. wide today among the na
tion's foreign and domestic problems,
. nd gave bim the benefit of advice
; Irom upwards of a dozen of the "best
J minds" he has invited Into consulta
nt tlon.
, Two of those with whom he has
talked about domestic questions have
teen persistently mentioned for.cab
fc. -inet positions, and their coming stim-
"ulated speculation about the possibil
Ity of their appointment to the next
president's official family. They were
"Z. 'Charles G. Dawes, Chicago banker,
and Henry Wallace of Des Moinee,
$ Iowa, an editor of farmer publica
.'tions. With the former Mr. Harding
J talked of financial .conditions -and
Z. jtax reforms and with the latter dis-
cufsed farmer relief.
i Senator Shields Alao Is Met,
2 I John K. Shields, Tennessee senator
1 and democratic member of the for
' eign relations committee, as wellas
" 'an irreconcilable opponent of the
" .Versailles treaty, conferred with the
president-elect about the plans for
an association of nations, and gave
- his approval of the general princi
Z pies proposed by Mr. Harding for an
f - 'international court.
" The league question also was dis
m -cussed by the president-elect with
Samuel McCune Lindsay, professor of
7 social legislation at Columbia, who
1 said he was confident the foreign
.policies of the new administration
-were being laid on a sound founda-
" ;tlon- ' .
The question of Mr. Hardiness
early resignation from the senate was
'' the subject of a conference between
"'him and -Senator-elect Frank B.
jWillis, whom Governor Cox has agreed
to appoint to the vacancy.
Z i So Decision Is Rched.
j I It was said afterward that no ?e-
- ision was reached and the friends
H '.of the president-elect took his delay
as meaning that he probably would
5 not retire till the new republican
if ' governor of Ohio takes office early
in January.
' . Among other callers during the day
'. . were Governor Sproul of Pennsyl-
-vania, W. W. Atterbury, vice-presi-
'dent of the Pennsylvania railroad,
JI Tand Michael Gallagher of Cleveland.
'an official of the Hanna interests, all
? of whom talked about financial and
- railway . conditions. Mr. Atterbury
w 'was in charge of the American rail-
"ways in France during the war and
-lias been regarded as one of the
JJ ;'world's leading experts on transpor
ts Itation. He said he viewed American
'railway conditions hopefully and felt
ithat Mr. Harding had a competent
" -understanding of the problem.
Hardline Is Invited South.

. ' Representative
Slemp, republican
iit innul committeeman from Vir-
.ginia. also saw the president-elect.
'but said he came merely to make a
luelayed report on the conduct of the
campaign in the south. Jn addition,
,lie invited Mr. and Mrs. Harding to
r 'spend January and February at
White Sulphur springs or soma other
Virginia resort.
- After his talk with Mr. Harding.
: ' fienator Shields said he old not gather
- that a very concerted plan had been
; formulated for a peace league, but
tt was confident Mr. Harding had chosen
j wisely in working toward a codifica
r itlon of International law-and a world
''court rather than toward any sort
-" of military alliance.
' The Tennessee senator added that
he did not expect the Harding plan
H . to require a surrender oi any ui
T ; American sovereignty.
r . Cabinet Talk -is vairue.
m i There was no evidence that any
" 'thing definite regarding cabinet ap-
' pointments had been discussed be
' ft ween the president-elect and Mr.
Dawes or Mr. Wallace. Mr. Dawes
said thera was no significance in his
" ; call except ha had been asked to give
advice about reduction of government
j expenses and its relation to taxation,
--t i and had been gratified to learn of
' Mr. Harding's thorough grasp of the
n t situation.
f ' Mr. Wallace said that he only bad
i been Buramoned to talk of means to
relieve the agricultural situation and
j that he considered Mr. Harding's in
Ci I terest sympathetic and bis views on
! the subject sound.
,i , Some of Mr. Harding's closest
' friends believe he till bas an open
tL I mind upon most of the cabinet se--
lections and that -none has been de
m J ternAned upon finally. Even those
" tentatively assigned may be shifted
!' I to other posts as cabinet material
r - and fitted Into the general scheme
" ' of the new administration, and no
S.5 definite offers of cabinet portfolios
; are expected to be made by him, until
he has canvassed the whole field thor
i oughly in his conferences here.

is expected before that date. Judge
Calking of Medford will hear the pe
tition. Harrison Allen of Portland, A. E.

for J. M. Dougan throughout the
courthouse litigation, represent the
petitioner.

the amount is exorbitant in compari
son with former years and no reason
is given for the increase.
Admiral Clark Regrets De
feat of Chamberlain.
Commander of Old Battleship Sees
Ureat Ixws to Nation.
THE OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Dec. 20. Senator
Chamberlain is very proud of a letter
received since the election from Rear
Admiral Charles E. Clark, who com
manded the battleship Oregon in its
memorable voyage around the . horn
in 189S to engage in the brilliant vie-,
tory over the Spanish fleet off the
coast of Cuba. The admiral, who is
a republican, say's:
"While, like a great majority of my
countrymen, I rejoice at the outburst
and the great triumph of the 2d, there
comes a really bitter feeling in my
heart that it should have Involved the
great and good senator from Oregon
who, all feel, 'stood four-square
against all the winds.'
"You know that name Oregon is dear
to me and one of the great pleasures
that came in recalling it was the
knowledge that her people feltva loy
alty to you beyond that of party,
Truly you can feel that the mantle of
the senators Pyrrhus told of descends
to you by right of inheritance. I trust
the good state will honor you again
when the national apprehension has
abated and that, in any event, it
means no financial loss to you; also
that you enjoy the thought that so
many of your countrymen. Irrespect
ive of party, feel that in your reverse
a real one has come to the nation
Up here so many say, "Grand, but
what a pity that Chamberlain of Ore
gon had to go." With every good
wish, your sincere friend.
The letter was written from the
Boston navy-yard. i

Interstate Commerce Com
mission Grants Authority.
MINORITY PROTEST FILED
Majority Holds That Public Inter-
est Will Best Be Promoted
by Consolidation.
WASHINGTON, Dec 20. Authority
was granted today by the interstate
commerce commission for permanent
consolidation of the transportation
business and properties of the Ad
ams, American, Wells Fargo and
Southern express companies into the
Amerriean Railway Express company.
The commission said it was Its belief
that the public would best be servea
by one consolidated company serving
all lines with equal rates. -
The permit granted by the commis
sion was based on an Application
filed by the four express companies
last March. Hearings were held by
the commission in August.
The commission divided on the
question of. permitting the- express
consolidation, effected by "'the rail
road administration as a war meas
ure, to be made permanent. Com
missioners McChord and Meyer dis
sented from the majority and pre
sented a minority report written by
the former.
"Monopoly," Says Minority.
The consolidation, the dissenting
report asserted, "creates a monopoly"
and "destroys every semblance of
competition. "
The other members of the commis
sion declared they were of the opin
ion and "find that the public in
terest will be promoted by the con
solidation. '
"It will now be practically impos
sible." declared the report written
by Commissioner McChord, "f o
another company to enter the ex
press business in competition with
the consolidated express company
We can, of course, regulate the rates
and certain practices of the Ameri
can Railway Express company, but
we will have no control over its
attitude toward the public. We can
not require it to render to the public
that efficiency, courtesy and far
dealing which competition compels.
It is my view that the time has
come when the carriers should give
serious consideration to the conduct
of the express business themselves.
That business has reached such pro
portions that it is now a parasite on
the freight traffic of the railroads."
War Merger Recalled.
Commissioner McChord also dis
sented from the majority opinion in
that the commission had the power
to presence in what manner the con
solidation may be effected, and not
merely grant its petition for a con
solidation.
The report of the commission re
cued that with the outbreak of the
war the express companies included
in the present consolidation were
formed into the American Railway
Express company and took over the
express business of the country as the
agent oi the director-general of rail
roads and that while 33 states an
peared to protest against the contin
uation of this combine, the protests
were based on inadequate service per.
iormea oy tne joint express com
panies, which the consolidated com
pany admits was poor, due to labor
conditions.
The commission accepted the con
tention of the companies that serv
ice was performed more efficiently
under the combined management than
could have been possible .under sep
arate management. The commission
ruled that suits pending against the
various companies must be settled by
the courts and not by the interstate
commerce commission.
Claim -Action Deplored.
While "deploring" the treatment a
cordefl by certain express companies
to claimants of damages and the prac
tice of only accepting service in suits
at their offices in New York, the com
mission held it could not pass upon
that phase of the claim.

ing to Spain to the effect that they

tain elements in the Cortes to Btrangl

WASHINGTON. Dec. 20. Spain has
been asked by the United States an
other governments, including, it was
understood, Great Britain and France,
to reconsider new schedules of taxa
tion so far as they relate to foreign
agencies, it was said here today.
protest was made a few weeks ago to
the Spanish government on the sub
ject. .
The conference between Ambassa
dor Willard and the representatives
of other powers, reported today from
London, was believed to have been
held foa, further consideration of the
subject, althought no specific instruc
tions have been sent to the ambassa
dor to participate in any joint com
municatlon.
The new schedule of taxes prepared
by the Spanish government provides
for basing, assessment of taxes on
branch houses on the incomes of th
parent houses. It has been argued
that such a course not only is unjust
but would have "the effect of driving
many concerns out of Spain.
