JEOPARDY PLEA UPHELD DECISION AGATVST LA GRAXDE MiX REVERSED. Case of Ward Smith, Convicted In Two Courts for Same Of fense, Is Remanded. SALEM, Or., July 12. (Special.) A plea of former jeopardy Is an In herent constitutional right deslgrned to promote justice, said Justice Johns In an opinion handed down by the supreme court today in the case of Ward Smith of Union county, charged with violating the prohibition law. Justice Johns reversed Judge Knowles of La Grande, and remanded the case for retrial. Smith, according to the testimony Introduced before the supreme court, was arrested on a federal warrant May 13, 1920. charged with having Intoxicating: liquor In his possession. He was arraigned in the United States district court In Portland, en tered a plea of guilty and was fined $50. On June 10. 1920. he apaln was ar rested at La Grande. .In the latter case the samo transaction was al leged as in the case previously dis posed of in federal court. Mr. Smith, upon being brought to trial irt Union county, pleaded former Jeopardy. Tho state filed a demurrer to his contention. The defendant's conviction followed and he was fined 5100. Smith then appealed to the- su preme .court. Again, he pleaded former jeopardy, which was held to bi proper by all members of the court. Other opinions handed down today follow: Eilza J.

Following Is the full text of President Harding's address to the senate: Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Senate There has come to my at tention oendincr unfinished business before the senate, and it is an im perative duty to convey to you the probable effect of the passage at this time of the proposed act providing- for adjusted compensation to our service men In the world war. If this measure could be made ef fective at the present time without disaster to the nation's finances and without hindrance to imperative re adjustment of our taxes it would pre sent an entirely different question than that which is before you. In a personal as well as a public manner, which outht to be a plight of good faith. I have commended the policy of generous treatment of the nation's defenders, not as a part of any con tract, not as the payment of a debt which Is owing, but as a mark of the nation's gratitude. Every obligation is to the disabled and dependent. In such reference as has been made to general compensation there has been a reservation as to the earliest consistent time for such action if it is taken. Even -without such reserva tion, however, a modified view would be wholly justifiable at the present moment, because the enactment of the compensation bill in the midst of the struggle for readjustment and resto ration would hinder every effort and ereatly imperil the financial stability of our country. More, this menacing effort to expend billions in gratuities would imperii our capacity to dis charge our first obligations to those we must not fail to aid. World Faces New Problems. I am addressing the senate directly because the problem is immediately yours, .as your unfinished business, but the executive branch of the gov ernment owes it to both houses of congress and to the country frankly to state the difficulties we daily are called upon to meet and the added peril this measure would bring. Our land has its share of the finan cial chaos and the industrial depres sion of the world. We little heeded the growth of indebtedness or the limits of expenditure during the war because we could not stop to count the cost. Our one thought then was the winning of the war and the sur vival of the nAtion. We borrowed and loaned individuals to the nation and the government to other govern ments and to those who served the nation with little thought of settle ment. It was relatively easy then, because national life was at stake. In the sober aftermath we face the order of reason, rather than act amid the passions of war, and our own land and the world are facing prob lems never faced before. There can be no solution unless we face the grim truths and seek to solve them in resolute devotion to duty. After a survey of more than four months, contemplating conditions which would stagger all of us were it not for our abiding faith In Amer ica, I am fully persuaded that three things are essential to the very be ginning of the restored order of things. These are the revision, in cluding reduction, of our internal taxation, the refunding of our war debt, and the adjustment of our for eign loans. It is vitally necessary to settle these problems before adding to our treasury any such burden as is contemplated in the pending bill. Klats Pay No BIIIm.' It is unthinkable to expect a busi ness revival and the resumption of the normal ways of peace while main taining the excessive taxes of war. It ia quite as unthinkable to reduce our tax burdens whiie committing our treasury to an additional obli gation which ranges from three to five billions of dollars. The precise figures no one can give. If it Is con ceivably true that only $200,000,000 a year would be drawn annually from the treasury in the few years imme diately before us, the bestowal is too inconsequential to be of real value to the nation's defenders; and. If the exercising of th e option should call for cash running into billions, the depression in finance and in-dustry would be so marked that vastly more harm than good would attend. Our government must undertake no obligation which it does not intend to meet. No government fiat will pay our bills. The exchanges of the world testify today to that erroneous the ory. We may rely on the sacrifices of patriotism in war, but today we face markets and the effects of sup fily and demand and the inexorable aws of credits in time of peace. At the very moment we are obliged to pay 5i per cent interest for gov ernment short-time loans to care for our floating indebtedness, a rate on government borrowing, in spite of tax exemptions, which ought to pre vail In private transactions for the normal interest charges in financing our industry and commerce. Definite obligations amounting to seven and one-half billions in war savings cer tif icates, victory bonds and certifi cates covering floating indebtedness are to mature In the two y-ears im mediately following, and overburden ing the treasury now would mean positive- disaster in the years imme diately before us. Merest prudence calls out in warning. Slump Held Inevitable. Our greatest necessity is a return to the normal ways of peace activ ities. A modest offering to the mil lions of service men is a poor pallia tive to more millions who mav he out of employment. Stabilized finance and well-established confidence are both essential to restore industry and commerce. The slump which Is now upon us is an Inevitable part of war's after math. It has followed in the wake of war since the world began. There was the unavoidable readjustment, the inevitable charge-off, the unfail ing attendance of losses in the wake of high prices, the inexorable defla tion which Inflation had preceded. Justice Bean; Judge Robert B. Morrow re versed and case remanded. Motion to modify mandate In case of Grisnon vs. Shope, denied. BONUS BILL'S FATE FIXED (Continued From First Pak.) will help to develop the country as well as pretending to help the sol dier." Senator Jone and Polndexter have not declared themselves on the bonus proposal, but, according to polls taken by senate leaders, they will vote to recommit the bill. Sujar Beet Kaisln Success. PRLVEVILLE. Or., July 12. (Spe cial.) According to Fred Eichemier, who inspected the two acres of sugar beets planted on the state farm this week, the. beets are in splendid con dition and from present indications raisins sujrar beets in this locality is an assured success. These beets were planted as an experiment, as their successful production will mean an added source of income 1 to the farmers of central Oregon. Sheep-Killing Bear Slain. NORTH BEND. Or., July 12. (Spe cial.) A sheep-killing: female bear disposed of 50 animals belonging to residents of Haynes inlet, before her den was discovered, and the animal located and killed. Gus Peterson was amor.ar the heaviest losers dur ing the regime of the bear, and found five -masses in one place. The bear was a ".-y large one, reports said. More Executive Power tTrged. WASHINGTON, D. C. July 12. The president would be empowered to veto separate items in appropria tion bills under a joint resolution prsented today by Senator Kenyon, ripublicau. Iowa. PRESIDENT'S PROTEST AGAINST BONIS BILL SUMMARIZED. Enactment at present of ad justed compensation for veter ans would greatly imperil finan cial stability of our country. Every obligation Is to the disabled and dependent, and the executive branch owes it to the country frankly to state the -difficulties we aj-e called upon to meet. Effort to expend billions In gratuities would Imperil capac ity to discharge first obliga tions to those we must not fail to aid. Revision and reduction of in ternal taxation, refunding of war debt and adjustment of foreign loans essential to resto ration. It is vitally necessary to set tle these problems before add ing to our treasury any such burden as is contemplated in the. pending (soldier bonus) bill. It Is unthinkable to expect business revival and resump tion of the normal ways of peace while maintaining the ex cessive taxes of war. lt is quite as unthinkable to reduce our tax burdens while committing our treasury to an additional obligation, which ranges from three to five bil lion dollars. Our government must under take no obligation which it does not intend to meet- No govern ment fiat will pay our bills. The slump which Is now upon us is an inevitable part of war's aftermath. The only sure way to normal cy is- over the paths nature hao marked throughout all human experience. ' I pledge you a most conscien tious drive to reduce govern ment cost by many millions. I believe world restoration- Is possible, but only with - honest, diligent work in productivity on the' one hand and honest and diligent opposition to needless public expenditure on the other. If the suggested recommit ment of this measure bore the merest suggestion of neglect or a hint of national Ingratitude I would not urge it. Neither armistice nor perma nent peace puts ,an end to the obligations of government to its defenders or the obligations of .citizens to the government. We never have neglected and never will neglect the depend ent soldier, and there is no way to avoid time's remorseless classifications. It has been wholly proper to seek to apply government relief to minimize the hardships, and the government has aided wherever possible and is aiding now, but all the special acts ever dreamed of, all the particular favors PVr finnaiircl ,.,;. : .j all the distresses nor ward off all the losses. i tie proper mental state of our people will commit us resolutely and confidently to our tasks and def inite assurances as to taxation and expenditure will contribute to that helpful mental order. The only sure way to normalcy is over the paths nature has marked throughout all hu man experience. With the approval of congress, the executive branch of the government has been driven toward that de-crf-ased expenditure which is the most practical assurance of diminished tax ation. With enthusiastic resolution your administrative agents are mak ing not only conscientious effort to renuce tne can lor appropriations, but to reduce the cost of government far below the appropriations you have al ready provided. It is easy to believe that the only way to diminish the burdens which the people must pay is to cut the outlay in which public moneys are expended. War is not wholly responsible for staggering costs; it has merely accentuated the menace which lies in mounting cost of government and excesses in ex penditure which a successful private business would not tolerate. Pre went Harden Knough. I can make you no definite promise In figures today, but I can pledge you a most conscientious drive to reduce government cost by many millions. It would be most discouraging to those who are bending their energies to save millions to have congress add billions to our burdens at the very beginning. Even if there were not threatened paralysis of our treasury, with its fatal reflexes on all our activities which concern our prosperity, would it not be better to await the settle ment of our foreign loans? At such a time it would be a bestowal on the part of our government when it is able to bestow. The United States participates In none of the distributable awards of war. but the world owes us heavily and will pay when restoration is wrought. If the restoration fails world bankruptcy attends. I believe world restoration Is possible, but only with honest, diligent work in produc tivity on the one hand and honest and diligent opposition to needless public expenditure On the other. If the suggested recommitment of this measure bore the merest sugges tion of neglect or a hint of national ingratitude I would not urge it. It has been my privilege to speak to congress on our obligations to the disabled and dependent soldiers and CHILDREN FLAY FATHER HEXBY SCHWEITZER ACCUSED OP MALTREATLNG WIFE. Litigation in Family Develops Bit ter Rejoinder to Petition Filed by Parent Far from being the ungrateful chil dren they are painted in the recent complaint of Henry Schweitzer, Sig mund. Joseph, Mary and Anton Schweitxer answer in papers filed in the circuit court yesterday that they have contributed regularly to the support of their father and mother in sums ranging from $20 to $40 a month each, and that their father mitsreats his wife in such a manner that he is "either the 'meanest man' who ever lived, or not in command of his nrental faculties. Schweitser asked the court to en join his children from bothering him, tc compel them to leave his home at 658 Insley avenue, and to make them desist from attempts- to have his wife divorce him. In reply, the children and L. Doern, son-in-law, allege that the father is a man of violent temper, a heavy drinker, and that he wishes to rid the house of them because thy ob ject to his abuse and beating of his wife. The defendants state they have supported their mother and two minor children almost entirely for eight years, saying -that their father never gave her more than $40 a month, while thr contribution monthly is more than $90. The only time tbey used violent language against their father, they say, was when they "told him that if he thought he could beat up their the government's deep desire to prove its concern for their welfare. I should be ashamed of the republic If it failed in its duty to them. Neither armistice nor permanent peace puts an end to the obligations of govern ment to its defenders or the obliga tions of citizens to the government. Mindful of these things the adminis trative branch of the government has not only spoken, it has acted and has accomplished. 700 Claims Klled Dally. In view of som of the things which have been said, and very care lessly said, perhaps I ought to report officially some of the things which have been done. In the department of war risk insurance there have been filed up to July 7, 1921, compensation and. insurance claims numbering 813, 442. Of these, 747.786 have been ad judicated at an expenditure of $471, 946,762. There were 200,000 claims pending when the war risk depart ment was reorganized late in April this year, and the number of pending claims has been reduced by 134,344. All work in this department will be current by the 21st of this Julv: that is to say. all action which the bureau may take on a given case will be cur rent, though new claims are being filed at the rate of 700 a day. There have been requested 887.614 medical examinations and less than 14,000 await medical action. Up to July 7 there have been 26,237 dis abled soldiers hospitalized and in government controlled hospitals today there are 6000 available beds without occupants. You are already aware of the progress made toward the con struction of additional government nospitais, not because we axe not meeting all demands, but to better meet them and the better to special ize In the treatment of those who come under our care. There has been paid out in allot ments and allowances the sum of $578,465,658, and nearly four billion of government insurance is In force- In vocational train in Br and re habilitation of disabled soldiers there have been enrolled, to date 107,824 men. loaay there are 75,812 men who are training with oav at th maximum cost of $160 a month; 8208 training without oav. but at a tui tion and- supply outlay of $35 a mo-ntn. rour thousand disabled men have completed their training and have been returned to gainful em ployment. These earned an average of $1051 a year before entering the army and are earning todav, in- spite of their war disability and- in spite or Qiminisnea wage or salary Jevels, an average of $1550 per annum. No Ingratitude Shown. It is an interesting revelation and a fine achievement, attended bv both abuses and triumphs. Congress has appropriated $65,000,000 for this noble work for the current year, but the estimated acceptance of training for the year before us contemplates an average of 95.000 disabled men, and the cost will be in excess of $163,000, 000, or nearly a hundred millions more than congress has provided. This additional sum must be made avail able. With the increase of availabil ity to training, as recently urged upon congress, the estimated addi tional expenditure will be $468,000,000 per annum, until the pledge of train ing is discharged. These figures sug gest neither neglect nor ingratitude. It is more than the ,entire cost of federal government for many years following the civil war and chal lenges every charge of failure to deal considerately with our nations de fenders. I do not recite the figures to sue gest that it is all we may do. or ultimately ougnt to do- it is inev itable that our obligations will grow and grow enormously. We never have neglected and never will neglect the dependent soldier, and there is no way to avoid times reniorseless clas sifications. Contemplating the tremendous lia bilitv which the government will never shirk. I would be remiss in my duty if I failed to ask congress to pause at this particular time, rather than break down, our treasury from which so much later on is to be ex pected. The defenders of the republic amid the perils of war would be the last of our citizenship to wish its stability menaced by an individual Pittance of peace. Enactment Now Dangerous. I know the feelings of my own breast, and that of yours and the erateful people of this republic. But no thoughtful person, possessed with all the facts, is ready for added com oensation for the healthful, self-re liant masses of our great armies at the cost of a treasury breakdown which would brine its hardshins tu all the citizens of the republic. Its enactment now in all probability would so add to our interest rates that the added interest chareres on new and refunded indebtedness would alone exceed the sum it is proposed to oestow. When congress was called In ex traordinary session I called vour at tention to the urgent measures which 1 thousrht demanded your considera tion. You promptly provided the emergency tariff, and good progress nas oeen made toward the much needed and more deliberate revision ol our tariff schedules. There Is con fessed disappointment that so little progress has been made in the re ad lust men t and reduction of war time taxes. 1 believe you share with me the earnest wish for early ac complishment. It is not expected that congress will sit and ignore other problems of leg islation. There are often ururent prob lems which must enlist your atten tion. I have not coine to speak of them, thoutrh the reorganization of the war risk and vocational training, now pending, would hasten the effi cient discharge of our wilhng oblica tions to the disabled soldiers. But I want to emohasize the bust great ion that the accomplishment of the major tasks for which you were asked to sit in extraordinary session will have a reassuring effect on the entire country and speed our resumn tion of normal activities and their rewards wnicn tend to make a pros perous and nappy people. mother like he could when they were little he was mistaken. Schweitzer had said that the chil dren had installed machinery in the house which kept him awake at night ard in other ways annoyed him. The children reply that the only ma chinery is an electric washing ma chine they bought for their mother to lighten her work and a lathe on which a crippled brother Sigmund is learning a trade.

Use Cocoanut Oil for Washing Hair If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than anything- else you can use for shampooing-, aa this can't possibly injurs the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonsful of Mulsified will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalD thoroushlv. Th lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
