- Those Who Dodged Puty.
A sky unflecked by wayward
clouds.
A sun whose warm rays sent the
sluggish blood of time-scarred vet
erans coursing through their veins.
Wayward breeaes which whipped
the folds of historic standards carried
in parade and waved the tiny flags
dotting hundreds of green mounds.
Blossoms on a river's bosom.
Matrons in white, veterans in blue
and olive drab, children bearing flags
nd flowers.
The flame of scarlet poppies.
Purring ships of the air, circling
and diving.
The roll of drums and shrill of fifes.
The tramp of marching feet.
Heads bowed in reverence.
This was Memorial day, 1921, as ob
served in Portland.
Memorial Day Glorloa.
Never did those who would honor
the nation's dead find a more glorious
day. Never were Oregon's floral gifts
more abundant or beautiful. In the
shadow of cemetery firs, at the foot
of veterans' monuments and at the
municipal auditorium the pledge of
Americans was renewed! that those
who had made the supreme sacrifice
in America's wars should not have
died in vain.
Speakers reviewed the glorious
deed's of the past In which Oregon's
soldiery had participated. They Im
pressed on. the living that theirs was J
a heritage of glory, sanctified ty me
lives of thousands. They asked that
the slacker be not forgotten, that the
un-American be shipped to the land
from whence he came or where his
sympathies lie. They prayed that the
spirit which actuated America in wars
of the past be kept alive and that the
American soldier might always be
found on the side of the right. If more
wars there may be.
Dead Are Not Fergottea.
Not' a cemetery In the city but
showed the loving remembrances of
friends and relatives. Flags and
flowers In profusion were mute evidence-
that all were not forgotten.
America has a new flower. Though
crimson popies may dot Flanders'
fields today, they will scarcely be
.more in evidence than the poppies in
buttonhole and corsage yesterday.
Immortalised in poetry, the red poppy
has come to stay as a symbol of the
promise given those who died over
seas. Where the supply of the Imita
tion scarlet flower ran out, the yel
low California poppies were "used.
The. sentiment was the same. ,
Fast thinning ranks of veterans of
earlier wars were reinforced in pa
rade yesterday by those who -will
compose the grand army of half a
century hence.. Lads clad in the olive
drab of the world war swung intc
line behind the veterans of blue- and
gray, .and the khaki warriors of the
fight with Spain.,
All Wan Represented.
The morning of Memorial day was
given over chiefly to observances in
widely separated sections of the city.
A parade of veterans of all wars and
community memorial exercises at the
city auditorium featured the after
noon. Such was the lure .of the stream,
the forest and the seashore during
the Saturday-Sunday-Monday holiday
that streets of the city were denuded
of the large crowds which usually
line the curbs during a Memorial
day parade, but enthusiasm compen
sated for numbers. Toward evening
streams of automobiles flowed along
all the arteries leading into Portland,
bringing week-enders from recrea
tion spots back to the humdrum of
jwork.
George A. White, adjutant-general
of Oregon, was grand marshal of
the parade. Be marched at ita head,
on foot, at his side two Grand Army
of the Republic veterans, and fol
lowed by 'his staff, composed of vet
erans of three wars. Chief of staff
was Captain Harry C. Brumbaugh.
Civil War Veteraaa March.

Cost of Eatables Generally Is Tum
bling; Pre-War Level, However,-
Xot Yet Reached.
The humble nickel has come Into its
own again in Portland restaurants.
As in other cities, restaurant prices in
Portland have been tumbling the last
few weeks, and although they are
npt yet back to pre-war levels, they
are near enough to cause jubilation
among downtown eaters.
That old standard dish, bam and
eggs, is back to "two bits" In many
of the central cafeteries. One, more
enterprising than some, advertises
ham or bacon and egg, with potatoes,
toast and coffee for 25 cents. The
same place has a 20-cent lunch con
sisting of meat or fish, potatoes, pie j
or pudding, coffee or tea and Dreaa
and butter.
A Washington-street cafeteria is
telling the world that it sells a small
steak for 10 cents. This restaurant
also advertises two eggs, any style,
for 13 cents, a hot beef sandwich for
10 cents, and corned beef hash, with
toast, for 13 cents. '
In most of the downtown restau
rants coffee is selling at a nickel a
cup.
In prunes Portland leads the world.
Recent dispatches from a California
city indicate that prunes are selling
at low prices down there, but some
weeks ago a Portland restaurant in
stituted a new stunt. In this restau
rant is a big bowl with a big spoon
and a big sign: "All the prunes
you want for 3 cents."
GASOLINE WAFMN EFFECT
Autoists of Chchalls Get Motor Fuel
for 2 6 Cents Gallon.
CHEHALIS, Wash.. May 30. (Spe
cial.) Citizens of Chehalis who drive
cars were enjoying the benefits of a
war on the price of gasoline, which
makes it possible to fill one's tank
to capacity at 26 cents a gallon.
Practically every stand in the city
sold at this price.
At Centralia the prevailing price
posted at garages was 28 cents the
gallon, and the saving of 2 cents a
c-allon by driving four miles was
causing many drivers from that city
to come to Chehalis to buy their
gasoline. So. far as can be learned
the cut In price was merely local.

(Special.) The big nine-mile dike

broke at 8:45 o'clock tonight.
Through a 60-foot gap torn in the
retaining wall at the mouth of Bur
rows creek, two miles south of Mar
tin's bluff, the inrushing waters of
the Columbia river began ewecping
forward, threatening before morning
to inundate 6000 to 6000 acres of the
12.000 In the district. -
wiihln SO minutes the flood had
washed away the Burrows creek
pumping station and continued on Us
course of devastation.
Operator Seada Warnings.
The operator at the telephone sta
tion here immediately began sending
out warnings to the 25 or 30 ranches
in the district, summoning all of the
residents to make the utmost haste to
get what cattle and personal property
they could together and flee from
the flood.
In the meantime, all available auto
mobiles here and atKalama had been
pressed into service to notify all of
the farmers who could not be reacnea
by telephone. It was thought that by
morning all of them would be out of
the lowlands and that they would have
saved all of their property with the
exception of the crops, valued at
about 1300.000. .
Preparations were made at onoe for
the accommodation here of the ref
ugees, who, it was said, would not ex
ceed 100. because the most of them
were tenant farmers.
Two Towas In Darkaeaa.
The work of sending out the warn
ing was hampered somewhat when
both - Woodland and Kalama were
plunged Into darkness as a result of
an accident to the power plant which
supplies the two towns, but the mis
hap was in "no way connected with
the washout of the dike.
The operator at the telephone ex
change tiere worked under difficulties
in the two-hour period that he was
without electric lights. ,
. From the size of the break and the
flow of the water, it was indicated
that the most of the ranchers would
have plenty of time to get what "they
could together and leave the area.'

I
SEATTLE, Wash., May 30. (Spe
cial.) J. A. Clark, a- comedian em
ployed by the Kolwood Production
company, was drowned in Green
lake this afternoon when he pur
posely capsized a canoe in which he
and Isabelle Carpenter, an actress,
were being filmed. ' He sank while
endeavoring to swim' ashore from the
canoe after he apparently recovered
his balance following the sudden
plunge into the lake. Miss Carpenter
returned to assist Clark and was
nearly drowned by him. The camera
registered the tragedy from begin
ning to end.
The company, which has been con
ducting a dramatic school in the
Thompson building for several months
past, was filming its first picture.
The film was to be a two-reel com
edy and the first reel called for a
scene in which a canoe capsized while
carrying the two principals of-the
piece.
The north end of Green lake was
selected as the spot to film the pic
ture, and Miss Carpenter of 1123
Thirty-eighth avenue and Clark
started out in the canoe. Both were
declared to be good swimmers, but as
an additional precaution another
canoe was stationed near by to come
to their rescue after the canoe cap
sized.
After the canoewas capsized Clark
grasped its edge for a moment, while
Miss Carpenter began to swim to
shore, about 150 yards distant. Clark
then started to follow her, when he
was observed to go down. Miss Car
penter, hearing a cry, turned back
and caught blm, but was drawn under
the water by Clark in his struggles.
He clung to the young woman with
a grip that she had difficulty In
breaking. She finally succeeded in
getting loose, and, completely ex
hausted by her experience, swam
slowly ashore. The police and park
departments Immediately made ef
forts to rescue the man, but did not
find the body unfli 2 hours later.
The accident occurred about 2 o'clock.
Clark was 24 years old and resided
in a lodging house at moiMgntn
avenue. His relatives had not been
located at a late hour tonlgTit.

HUMANITY'S DEMANDS NOTED
Pace Must Be Kept With Ad
vancing Civilization. .
INTEGRITY IS HELD VITAL
Duty to World Can Be Accom
plished Best if Own Needs Are
Tended First, Says President.
WASHINGTON", D. C, May 30. The
national capital's memorial cere
monies for American war dead were
colored by a new touch of interna
tional significance today at services
held In Arlington cemetery under the
lead of President Harding.
Speaking in the Arlington amphi
theater to veterans of three wars and
to officials and diplomats, the presi
dent rededicated the nation to the
cause of freedom and civilization and
promised that it never would fail to
measure up to every demand presented
to It In behalf of civilization.
By striking across the sea In the
world war, he declared, America had
sanctified again her faith in free In
stitutions for peoples everywhere.
Geddea Decora ten Flag.
"Wherever men are free," he said,
"they are wont to give thought to our
country's services In freedom's cause.
Today the sons anddaughters of
other, lands are placing with loving
hands their laurels on American
graves. Our Memorial day is become
an international occasion."
. Sir Auckland Geddes, British am
bassador, seconded the sentiment by
placing on the American flag beside
the president a . wreath of roses
presented by the people of the United
Kingdom and her dominions "In un
dimmed memory of the sacrifices
America has made - for Individual
liberty."
Loyalty First to Self Urged.
A nation loyal first of all to itself,
""" w ....
demands of an advancing civilisation.
P'tu"d the President as an
American ideal.
American heroes of every war, the
president said, had accomplished far
mora tnan me irameaiuw enas lor
which they fough because they had
hIped erect and preserve a shrine for
the liberty loving of every race.
He declared the whole mission of
America would become an unrealized
dream If this heritage ever was sacrl-j
flced.
Civilisation Duty Noted.
"Our country," said Mr. Harding,
"has never failed to measure up to the
demands presented to it In behalf of
humanity and it "never will. When it
ceases to meet these drafts U will no
lnnerer be our country: It will be, if
that time ever comes, the wretched
and decaying memorial of 'another
civilization that has crumpled, of an
other Ideal which has failed, of an
other ambition for men's happiness
which has somehow gone awry."
In equally emphatic language the
president asserted his conviction that
this duty to civilization could be ac
complished only If the nation took
care first of its own integrity.
The text of the president's address
in part follows:
Meeting en Sacred Soli.
"We are met on sacred soil today.
for. a solemn hour of sacrament and
consecration. But the soil whence
we come is Itself sanctified through
the sacrifices of those who lie here.
Wherever our flag files, within the
boundaries of the republic. It is over
lands whose freedom and security
have been wrought through these
sacrifices.
"It is the privilege of this com
pany to utter our tribute of love and
gratitude in the sacristy of beauty
within sight of the national capital.
But others, no less devout, will as
semble in our land and other lands,
under foreign skies and among alien
peoples, to pay like tribute of love
and memory. There is no discordant
note In the hymn of gratitude, no sec
tionalism in our memorial. Above the
Riurmurlngs of grief Is the swelling
concord of union and the dominant
note is our faith in the republic. -Diverse
Raeea Speak Tribute.
"It will be a tribute today, spoken
in many tongues and by diverse races.
Wherever men are free they are wont
to give thought to our country's serv
ices in freedom's cause. Where men
may but aspire to a freedom not yet
achieved, their instinct turns the eye
and the thought of hope this way, and
they pray that their cause may gain
our approbation. They know that we
have never drawn the sword of op
pression, that we have not sought
what was not our o'wn, nor taken all
that we might have claimed. They
have seen our protecting arm
stretched over the outpoBts of liberty
on'every continent. For more than a
century our plighted word warned
tyranny from half the world; then,
when the gage was taken up by toad
ambition, men felt the blow that
armies could strike when freedom
answered in its utmost might.

A grave situation involving the

News, that during the London con

then foreign minister for Mustapha
Kemal Pasha, the nationalist leader,
were offered by the allies terms
which constituted very favorable
modifications of the Sevres treaty.
They received one month to accept
or reject the terms, but since then
there has been no sign of acceptance,
and Beklr Samy Bjy has given way
to a much' more Irreconcilable suc
cessor. The pledge to release British
prisoners has been broken and other
agreements violated. In consequence
of these acts. Britain is considering
the dispatch of a stern note to Angora
and preparing to back up its protest
by adequate measures.
An Indian Moslem, Mustapha Sachir,
has been hanged at Angora on a
charge for which there" appears to
be no foundation whatever of bein
a spy. British subjects have been
held up and ransacked off Adalia. and
all Anatolian ports have bocn de
clared closed to Brltlsli shipping. An
attack by Mustapha Kemal's troops on
Constantinople and the straits Is at
present threatened, while at the same
time ratification of the treaty with
France regarding Ollicla has been
refused and treaties with Moscow and
Afghanistan have been concluded.
All these circumstances point to a
deliberate policy of hostility toward
Great Britain and. to a lesser degree,
France, on the part of the Angora
government.
