IN FAVOR OF FAIR
HONORS COURSE TAUGHT
14
LOCAL DELEGATION
4-POWER ALLIANG
BEING CONSIDERED
Multnomah Legislators Take
Unanimous Stand-
COMMITTEE IS NAMED
Conferences to Be Held With Legal
Committee in Preparation or
State Tax Measure.
In unanimous accord, members of
the Multnomah legislative delegation
expressed themselves as in favor of
the 1925 fair at a meeting laat night
beld with the exposition directors.
A committee, consisting of five mem
bers of the delegation, was appointed
to confer with the legal committee of
the fair board In the preparation of
a tax measure to be submitted to the
legislature for reference to the peo
ple next May. A report will be made
next Monday night.
Senator Moser and Representative
Kubli. the latter chairman of the dele
gation, declared that the vote of 4 to 1
in Portland for the fair constituted a
mandate from their constituents that
the entire delegation get behind the
state tux for the fair.
Situation In Dineusned.
The reports that several legislators
outside of Multnomah county will
propose plans for financing the ex
position by means of a state income
tax. a poll tax or some other tax,
were referred to by Senator Moser.
He read the ordinance passed by
Portland and showed that this ordi
nance specifically stipulates that
Portland's $2,000,000 tax Is contingent
on $1,000,000 raised by private sub
scription and $3,000,000 by a state
tax levy.
The senator pointed out that inas
much as the charter designates a
state tax levy, the people of Port
land would have to have another spe
cial election to amend the charter
again If a state income tax was in
sisted on by the special session of the
legislature instead of a state levy.
Senator Banks Informed the fair
directors present that they need not
waste further time on the Multno
mah delegation, but that the support
of the directors will be needed with
the uP-Btate members and the senator
urged that the directors appear on
the scene at Salem. By a rising vote,
on motion of Mayor Baker, the direc
tors promised to do so.
Gordon Outline Position.
Representative Gordon, who In
clines toward a state income tax, put
his position before his colleagues and
the directors. He said he would vote
for the bill prepared by the fair
directors for a tax on real property If
It was the best one submitted for the
consideration of the legislature.
Advantages which will accrue to
the state by reason of the 1926 fair
were outlined briefly by Franklin T.
Griffith, William M. Ktllingsworth,
John P. Paly, J. L. Meier, Robert
Strong. Mayor Baker and others.
Each speaker indicated that the ben
efits will be greater to the state as
a whole than to Portland in partic
ular. On the committee to draft a tax
bill with the legal committee of the
fair board were named Representa
tives Hindman and Korrell and Sena
trs Banks, Moser and Joseph.
Nightgowns and Cooties
Among 500 Exhibits.
Inventory Tank of Supreme Court
Clerk -o Snmll One.
SALEM. Or.. Dec. 5. (Special.) A
woman's nightgown Introduced In
evidence in a sensational divorce case
tried recently In Clackamas county, a
bottle containing a large number of
cooties which figured prominently in
a divorce action started in eastern
Oregon, and some corBet stays and
bones which were essential to the
prosecution in Identifying the body
of Edna Morgan of Douglas county,
are among the 500 or more exhibits
now in possession of the Oregon sir
preme court which will be Inventoried
soon after January 1.
The task of making the inventory
will fall upon Arthur Benson, clerk
of the supreme court. Included in the
exhibits also are boat models, draw
ings of stage scenery, revolvers, guns,
valentines, a Cinderella slipper, saddle,
fiddle, cornet, bottle of the original
moonshine liquor manufactured In
Linn county, books and records in the
celebrated Oregon & California land
grant case, concrete pavement blocks,
models of power lines and "a nasty
little scrapbook." The scrapbook, It
was said, played an important part
in one of the most sensational divorce
cases ever heard by the Oregon su
preme court.
The exhibits in the case involving
the death of Edna Morgan probably
are more numerous than those in any
single action appealed to the supreme
court In recent years. The body of
Miss Morgan was found in the ruins
of an old barn near Glendale and was
Identified by corset stays, bones,
small pieces of cloth, shoes and trink
ets. Roy Farnum was arrested for
the murder, and after ueing tried four
times in the Douglas county courts
was convicted and sentenced to the
penitentiary.
Many of the exhibits figured in
cases Involving prominent people of
this state, and in a number of In
stances no names were attached to
prove their Identification.

Barnard College Students Try Edu-
eational Experiment.
NEW YORK. Thirteen exceptional
Barnard college students have been
selected for an educational experi
ment which .rims to make of them
scholars and specialists in their chos
en subjects. Instead of having them
kept at work on the prescribed
courses with their 700 less brilliant
sisters.
Dean Virginia G. Glldersleeve, who
recently returned after making a
study of European university meth
ods, announced the new course re
sembling the honors course of the
English universities. Too much time
has been spent in the past on poor
students and not enough on good ones,
she said.
"This plan," she explained, "Is an
effort to avoid some of the faults
characteristic of our American col
lege system; for example, that of
forcing a student to spend a great
deal of her time In classrooms listen
ing to lectures ana running to and
fro from various college engage
ments. "It also attempts to counteract the
tendency to think of scholarship In
terms of courses, grades and points
rather than subjects of fields of
knowledge and that unfortunate
American tendency to split up one's
knowledge into half-yearly frag
ments which are forgotten quickly
after the midyear and final examina
tions." Among the students chosen for the
new course and their subjects are:
Botany. Nelly Jacob. Gall, Switzer
land; English, Anna E. Lincoln, 1303
North Dearborn avenue, Chicago, and
Margaret Truster, Indianapolis;
French, Phyllis Halg. Haigvllle, Neb.;
Greek and Latin. Dorothy F. Scholze

639 CHILDREN ARE ADDED
Census for Clackamas County Is
Announced as 12,679.
OREGON CITY, Or., Dec. 5. (Spe
cial.) An Increase of 639 children In
Clackamas county, between the ages
of 4 and 20 was revealed in the 1921
school census, which was completed
here today.
The number of children in the coun
ty is 12.679. Last year the number
was 12.040. Division of the census
into boys and garls has not yet been
completed.
The growth, according to County
School Superintendent Vedder, Is for
the most part due to the number of
famlies which are coming here.

LEBANON. Or.," Dec. 5. (Special.)
William Vaughan. policeman of this
city, today was in the Lebanon hos
pital suffering from a bullet wound

three inches above the knee in the
t.esh of the leg.
Cancellation of Bounty Asked.
OLYMPIA. Wash., Dec. 5. (Spe
cial.) Glen Bach, federal predatory
animal Inspector, has asked the county
commissioners to take off the $4
bounty given for coyotes because, he
declares, it encourages the stealing
of state-owned traps. He also asked
that the county pay part of the sal
ary of the federal hunter. The county
commissioners say they will not take
definite action on the suggestion until
an opinion has been received from
Prosecuting Attorney Fullerton, as
they are uncertain whether or not the
county could legally pay part of the
salary of the federal hunter.
Tumwater Schools Closed.
OLYMPIA. Wash Dec. 6. "(Spe
cial.) The Tumwater schools have
been closed by order of Dr. Kenneth

board, upon the advice of the health
officer, closed the schools until after
the first of the year.

greatest need In education in the
United States today is "a square deal
for the country child," John J. Tlgert,

equal."

of his government to act circum
spectly in so important a decision.
Meantime the conference outwardly
is concerning itself with questions of
collateral slgnilicance. The committee
on draft, headed by Ellhu Root, today
debated foreign telegraph and radio
facilities in Chicago, virtually decid
ing to bring In a resolution provid
ing that as many of these facilities
ps exist without treaty sanction shall
have only a curtailed use hereafter.
The Shantung conversations, pro
ceeding between the Japanese and
Chinese were advanced another step.
but developed no Important decisions.
Open Session Likely.
The committee of the whole on the
far east is to meet Wednesday. An
open session of the conference may
be held late in the week.
The American belief that the naval
question can be settled independent
of political issues, apparently is not
readily accepted in all quarters. A
British spokesman recently declared
that in the British view the naval and
far eastern problems were bound up
in the same sheaf and there have been
indications of a like opinion among
some Japanese.
It is considered possible that In
the period of waiting the two threads
ot negotiations may become so
tangled in the foreign capitals as to
give American delegates considerable
trouble in separating them when the
discussions here are resumed.
Ideas Credited to Premier.
The proposal for a four-power en
tente as now advanced, is considered
an outgrowth of the suggestion of
David Lloyd George made several
weeks ago In parliament that the
Washington conference might well
consider merging the Anglo-Japanese
alliance into an arrangement to which
the United States would be a party.
The Japanese have shown an inclina
tion to take up that proposal and It
has been mentioned more than once
to the American delegates.
These hints have never brought the
subject to the point of a formal ex
change of views, however.
In every consiaeration of a possible
treaty or international understanding
to replace the alliance, the American
delegates have kept in mind the pos
sible temper of the senate should it
be asked to ratify such an agreement.
An "understanding" would not re
quire senate confirmation, but it is
conjectural how binding an agree
ment of that character President
Harding and his plenipotentiaries
would care to effect.
TIME LOST IS NOT COUNTED
America Takes No Credit for De
lay Due to War.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 5. (By the
Associated Press.) While the United
States did not seek any allowance in
the American proposal for limitation
of naval armaments for delays in the
American building programme Inci
dent to the world war. such an allow
ance was made for Great Britain in
fixing the "60-65-30" naval ratio for
the proposed ten-year building holi
day. This has attracted attention In
naval circles here to the fact that
actually about two years was lost
on the American programme due to
the war, while Japan continued build
ing practically unchecked.
It is from this situation, it was
pointed out today, that it is now
possible for Japanese 3xperts to pre
sent any claim for the 70 per cent
ratio they have sought as against
the proposed "5-5-3" status.' But for
the war, all of the 16 capital ships
the United States has offered to scrap
without completion would now b?
with the fleet. Japan, on the other
tiand, it was said, continued to build
throughout the war and achieved a
position as to completed ships on
that account, she could not otherwise
have reached.
Secretary Daniels in June, 1917,
after entrance of the United States
into the war, ordered work on capital
ships virtually stopped 'n favor of
rush construction of destroyers to
cope w'th German submarines. It
was a year before any thought was
given to the capital ships and prac
tically two years before work on them
could be resumed.
The navy department, however,
took advantage of the situation to
redesign the six battle cruisers twice
to incorporate war lessons In con
struction. The effect of the rush work on de
stroyers was to put the American
navy practically first in this vital
arm of modern navies. The Japanese
strength In destroyers s almost neg
ligible in comparison, officers sal.t,
yet no attempt to seek advantage in
naval ratio on this score was made
by Secretary Hughes. In the came
way, it was added. Japan stands far
below even a 50 per cent ratio 'n sub
marine strength and this also applies
practically to every other auxiliary
arm.
ALLIANCE GAINS MUCH FAVOR
Foreign Office Seems to Think
Plan Is Possible, It Is Said.
TOKIO, Dec. 5. (By the Associated
Press.) Special dispatches and news
agency reports from "Vashlngton that
a four-power alliance, agreement or
understanding for the Pacific was
under discussion as a possible substi
tute for the Anglo-Japanese alliance
found ready credence in unofficial
Circles today, the suggestion being
widely and favorably commented
upon. Morning newspapers appear to
regard such an entente as likely to
prove the philosopher's stone for the
solution of many of the conference's
problems.
By the Inclusion of France with
Great Britain, Japan and the United
States, it is argued, America would
find less difficulty in entering the
proposed association, while France
would be rescued from possible isola
tion. Great Britain and Japan, It is
pointed out. wouK have nothing to
complain of, since the fundamental
object of the Anglo-Japanese compact
would be attained and given greater
authority through French participa
tion. The official view, as It seems to be
reflected In the newspapers, is some
what less confident, especially that cf
the naval authorities. The latter lay
emphasis upon the contention that
such an entente would be purely a
political affair and argue that it

to Keep Premier at Home.
NEW YORK, Dec. 5. The state
ment that It "was unlikely that Lloyd
George will come to the Washington
conference" was made late today by
a member of the British arms dele
gation. While no direct word has been re
ceived of Lloyd George's intentions
the British official declared unoffi

British premier would not be able to

the Irish negotiations and other
pressing domestic matters, he added,
would keep the premier at home.

Five automobiles successfully con
spired to delay the Rainier local of
the Spokane, Portland & Seattle rail
way early last night at a point about
three miles north of Linnton, by
skidding and cutting other capers on
the Linnton road near the right of
way. The automobile in which Vin
cent Williams, painter, was riding,
slipped from the pavement, slid down
a steep Incline and dropped 15 feet
into a cut and onto the railroad track
Williams was cut about the head, not
seriously, and the train wu flagged
at Scappoose.
A fine mist had wet the pavement,
which was greasy. An automobile
traveling at a fair rate of speed
skidded and turned turtle In the
ditch, the front half of the machine
protruding onto the road. The driver
was unhurt and has not been identi
fied yet. A truck driver, in attempt
ing to dodge the upturned car, ran
his own machine Into the ditch, losing
two wheels. Two touring cars fol
lowed the truck, attempting a sud
den stop and skidding into the ditch.
Then the Williams car arrived. The
driver tried to miss the stalled ma
chines by driving on the left-hand
side of the road. Portland bound, but
his machine followed the leader and
hurtled through a wire fence, down
the hill and onto the track.

cents per $100 and the fourth 4 Us at
98.14 showed a similar gain.

How Clear This Matter Is!
Of two steel bars, equally tough,
you can more readily file down
the narrower one.
Exactly the same with tires. The
wider the tread, the longer and
harder must be the road grind

That is the very simple reason
why Gates Super-Tread Tires
are built with a tread that is
wider as well as thicker.
And 200,000 users will tell you
that this Super-Tread has a lot
more miles in it.
