WAGE REDUCTION INEVITABLE Open-Shop Problem Also Up for Solution. S0MPERS SEES SITUATION federation Leader and His Staff Leave for 3Ieiico; Departure Is Counted Significant. THE OREtlONIAX NEWS BUREAU, Washington. Jan. B. Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation f Labor, accompanied by his execu tive staff, has gone to Mexico. His eparture calls attention to the fact that organized labor in this country Is facing the greatest crisis In its his tory. There are rumors that Mr Rompers has taken advantage of the opportunity to get out of the country before the crisis is reached. His lieu tenants, who are remaining on the lob, have taken an entirely new attl tude toward the public and no longer appear before legislators in a threa tening and truculent mood. There are two angles of the sltua tion which labor is meeting. One of them Is the necessity of accepting lower wages and the other is the problem of the "open shop." In spite of assertions made by Mr. Gompers and others to the effect that labor would not accept lower wages, there re evidences that wages are coming uvv.ii uu must continue to come own in keeping with the reduction In the prices of commodities which labor produces. Labor Accepts Situation. Dispatches from various sections of the country show that, labor is ac cepting this feature of the situation witn considerable philosophy. For xampls, a 20 per cent reduction has been accepted by the J000 employes f the Pullman company In its Illinois chops. Even with this reduction it leaves wages there higher than In January. 1918. The 20 per cent reduc tion cuts off Just one-fifth of the in creases that have been received. In the New England textile mills reduc tions ef 224 per cent have been ac cepted. In Salt Lake City the brick tnasons of a fire clay company have Jhsked their company to reduce their .wages from 110 to SS a day. Reports of reductions in wages tome from all sections of the country And are accompanied by reports of a revival in industry. In spite of that, there Is much unemployment in the country, especially in the textile and automobile manufacturing centers. The closing down of the Ford and Podge works in Detroit has thrown thmiKanriy, nf mn mil nf Am nl While rubber manufacturing centers Ohio report a similar condition. I'uhllr t oasldered Now. In meeting this situation, organized tabor is suffering from the result of Its militant activity In years past. The present attitude of organixed la bor leaders Indicates that these leaders have awakened to the fact that the general public must be con sidered in all contests between capi tal and labor. Beginning with the passage of the Adarason act, when lfcbor leaders held a stop-watch on congress, up to November 4. last, this attitude has been maintained. The November elections showed a terrific reaction against this attitude on the part of labor. Sir. Gompers fell in with this atti tude and co-operated with such or ganisations as the Plumb Plan league and other radical organizations, and a definite fight was made upon every member of congress who had not voted as directed by organized labor. The result leaves the leaders of or- Sixteen Men and Women of Oregon Campus Are Wedded During Christmas Season Vacation. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Jan. 5.--( Special.)

EUROPE EPIDEMIC-RIDDEN Four Grave Diseases Reported Raging Danger to This Coun try Steadily Grows. SCHOONER ABANDONS TOW Barge and Cargo Are Cut Adrift in Storm Off Coast. NEWPORT, Or., Jan. 5. (Special.) A barge loaded with lumber and a pile-driving outfit and towed by the gasoline schooner E. L. Smith was cut losse during the recent storm, and has gone ashore at lower Nestucca, near Haystack rock, according to re ports reaching this city today. Captatn Knight of the gasoline schooner said that he encountered high winds and heavy seas and was obliged to cut the barge adrift In order to save the schooner. It was said here today that the pile-driver boiler and engine were in sight in the surf and that the scow was riding safely. The lumber cargo probably will be a total loss. The schooner left SUetz bay December 26 with a cargo for Newport. SCALDED BOY SUCCUMBS Bath in Wash Boiler Is Fatal to Child at Pioneer. TOLEDO, Or., Jan. 6. (Special.) Junior Miller, small son of Mr. and Mrs. Nels W. Miller, who live near Pioneer, died this morning as a re sult of a scalding suffered last Sun day morning in a wash boiler of hot water which his mother had left on the porcn. i The, boy climbed into the boiler, scalding himself about the arms and shoulders. He was the only child of the Millers. The family lives on a farm on the Yaquina river above Toledo. WASHINGTON. Jan. 5. Testimony by Commissioner Wallis of the Ellis island immigration station that Eu rope was "literally moving to the i-niterf states" and that a flood oi aliens was imminent, still left mem bers of the senate immigration com mittee doubtful as to action on the Johnson bill prohibiting Immigration for one year. Several members ex nressed doubt as to whether any measures to stop or restrict Immigra tion would be enacted at this session. The committee obviously was im pressed with Commissioner Wallis' statement as to the need for inspec tion of aliens before leaving Europe and for more rigid examinations'after their arrival here. He recommended that falicities be established overseas for such Inspection and declared that 90 per cent of the immigrants now arriving would be denied permission to sail if they were examined at the ports of embarkation by American of ficials. A system of examination in Europe and upon arrival, Mr. Wallis said, would prevent an imminent flood of persons diseased in body and mind. Nor Diseases Raring. "Fortunately," he added, "steam ships can bring only 1,300.000 a year. It is In the limited transportation fa cilities and increased examinations that we will get the best protection." He declared reports of the public health Europe today "is in the grip of foul epidemics typhus, typhoid, dysentery and tuberculosis." The war has undermined the health of those countries and their emigrants are "dangerous to the public health of the United States," he added. Mr. Wallis reminded the committee 'that not a mother's son who went to war in Europe was allowed to return until he had taken a bath in strong est disinfectants and his clothes had been cleansed." Cleansing Proves Task. "Yet these people come here un cloansed and diseased," he added. Xaval Ofricer Reaches Clinton, la., Only to Be Disappointed on Eve of Day Set for Wedding. CLINTON, la., Jan.

Hotel and Restaurant Keepers Classified as "Bigger Robbers" Than Lowly Pickpocket. WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. Measures proposing protection Tor inaugural crowds March 4 from gouging hotel- keepers, restaurant propr'etors and landlords as well as from pickpockets, were introduced today in the senate and their authors gave notice they would be pressed. The measures wore offered as the senate was adopt ing a resolution appropriating to0, 000 to bu Id a stand a, the capitol and to defray o:uer expenses in connec tion with tae inauguration of preil-c'ent-elect Harding. An attempt to cut the appropriation to $10,000 f.Ie6 A resolution, Introduced by Senator McCumber, republican North Dakota, would prohibit hotels from charging more than the rate charged during last month and the present moniii. He sa'd congress would provide police protection from pickpockets and asked if any protection was to be given from "the bigger robbers." "A pickpocket," he said, "may rob a visitor of (5 and If be is caught he will go to jail. But a hotel pro prietor may rob a visitor of J100 a day and insist on doing It seven t'mes over. Is there to be no pro tection against him?" Senator Jones, republican, Washing ton, offered a bill which would go further in protecting visitors. It would authorize commissioners of the District of Columbia to regulate charges for meals and lodgings from February 28 to March 10, and vio lators would be liable to fines of from J100 to J100j and prison sen tences of six months.

President- Elect Harding became a 32d degree Masnn tnniht in a lfl.linnr Initiutinn ' ceremony, participated in by ranking officials of the order from all parts of the United States. Starting as a Master Mason, the president-elect was raised through the 29 other degrees at a continuous sitting arranged for him. He was the third chosen chief executive to take the degrees before the Scioto Valley Consistory, James A. Garfield and William McKlnley having been given their 32d degrees here. Mr, Harding was presented with a Mason ring by the S2d degree Masons of Marion, who had occupied posts of honor in the initiation. He may re turn Friday to receive membership in the Mystic Shrine. With Mrs. Harding, the president elect motored from Marlon today, his only conference before leaving home being with Fred Upham of Chicago, treasurer of the republican national committee. He will return tomorrow. It became known tonight that in continuing his conference at Marion, Mr. Harding will make army and navy- appropriations and preparedness in general a principal subject to be dis cussed. He is expected to see Repre sentative Kahn, chairman of the house military committee, and Repre sentative Butler, chairman of the house naval committee, in addition to other members of congress influen tial in the framing of military and naval legislation. The president-elect has talked over the subject with Senator Wadsworth, chairman of the senate military com mittee, with several members of the senate naval committee and with the representatives in charge of the fram ing of appropriations for the army and navy. Upon all he has urged the advisability of keeping such appro priations as low as possible. The whole policy of military and naval preparedness is linked with the question of disarmament under a pos sible world agreement, and It Is understood this broader aspect of the situation is constantly In Mr. Hard ing's mind. It is said to be his hope that an association of nations soon will make the preparedness problem easier to solve and that, in conse quence, he is working for a temporary policy that will keep the nation safe until international conditions are clarified. WAIFS PICKED AT RANDOM Labor Department Allows Temporary Admission. OLDEST IS GIRL OF 19 Old Salt I5 Glad Tlioy Have Kot Tet Begun to Call Him 'rather" for Change Is so Sudden. A sudden lowering of the tempera ture throughout the area drained by tlie Willamette river yesterday checked the flood, and Weatherman Wells last night withdrew his prediction of a 20-foot stage, made earlier in the day, and said that in all probability the Willamette will not go over the 19-foot stage at Portland. The weath er bureau gauge on the Morrison bridge stood at 18.9 feet at 7 o'clock last night, showing a rise of only three-tenths of a foot In 24 hours. The lowering of temperature was accompanied by a flurry of wet snow that started at 9:30 A. M. yesterday and Blanketed the heights. Then, as If the weather had done its worst and was content, the sun shone for the first time In 1921. Whatever pre cipitation occurred in the mountains was in the form of snow, Mr. Wells said, and this fact could be counted upon to check the flood in the upper Willamette valley. New storm damage reported yes terday consisted of a serious slide on the Yaquina branch of the Southern Pacific line west of Summit, which is expected to block this line for two days. Several small slides were also reported between Cochran and En right on the Tillamook branch. Dam age done telephone and telegraph lines by the high wind of Tuesday had nearly all been repaired last night, and service was again normal. TOLEDO REPORTS SNOWFALL Further Storm Damage Reported in Lincoln County. TOLEDO, Or., Jan. 5. (Special.) Continued wind and rains did further damage in Lincoln county yesterday. Another section of the roof on the government mill was blown off, win dows were blown in, and fallen trees blocked the wagon roads. Two new slides, one near Summit and the other at Blk City, completely blocked the Southern Pacific line, cutting Lincoln county off from the valley mail and train service. Reports from Newport indicated' that the high surf was endangering some of the waterfront property there. The high tides of the past week have undermined the railroad built from Yaquina to Newport and northward by the government during the war. The wind and rain abated I today. The ground is covered with a I light fall Of snow, with conditions in dicating more snow. COLBY HOMEWARD BOUND Final Honors Paid by Agent of Uruguayan Government. MONTEVIDEO. Jan. 5.

"I did not careful. y select the seven, but when 1 came away 1 decided that I should do some thing, and I took the first I came to. "There were three others I wanted to bring, but one was tubercular and I knew would not be admitted.
