SHIPPING POOL AGREED ON
(Cnntlnue1 Krom First Pore.)
of the shipping board to allocate to
a coastwlde corporation such vessels
as might be needed to meet freight
and patenger requirements was pre
sented the delegates by Wallace Alex
ander, president of the San Francisco
chamber of commerce, presiding, and
by Herbert Fleishhacker, president
of the Anglo London-Paris Na
tional bank, acting as spokesman of
he shipping board.
"I have called you together," said
Mr. Alexander, "as patriotic citizens
detfring to solve the difficulties of
your government and at the same
time to restore the former status of
our country's shipping.
"The time is not inauspicious. For.
sign trade Is at low ebb and upon the
settlement of the Washington confer
ence I am hoping for a renewal of
foreign commerce. I might say I an
t'cipate that the seaport cities of the
Pacific coast will send a Joint com
mission to the orient to stimulate
trade,
Popularly-Owned Line Wasted.
"Our government desires to go out
of the shipping business, and sell Its
steamers to a private corporation suf
ficiently strong to operate a trans
pacific line."
Mr. Fleishhacker said the Shipping
board had favored "a popularly owned
company by citizens of the Pacific
states to take over such boats as may
be essential to render the various
ports of Washington, Oregon and
California such service as may be
necessary to handle successfully all
traffic In competition with ships un
der foreign flags."
"I assume there can be no opposi
tion to such a broad policy." be added,
"and that we eagerly will take ad
vantage of the situation.
"It is suggested as a means of ar
riving at this result that the govern
ment discontinue entirely the opera
tion of ships on the Pacific; that its
Shi-pa be sold at such a price and upon
such terras as will Insure success to
the proposed corporation.
"The government can work out
such a large enterprise only through
a company with sufficient capital and
scope to take care of the needs of
every Important port on the coast.
By this method shipping conditions
will be greatly Improved and the gov-I
ernment relieved of the burden im
posed upon it by the present form of
ship operations, which results In
large deficits. t
Amendments Are Suggested.
"It may be essential that con
gressional action be taken before this
undertaking can be finally consum
mated. 1 believe that some amend
ments 5hould be mule to the ship
ping 'act co In effect, and Uiat the
president should us bla prerogative
and put the Philippine Islands under
eotion 21 of lh merchant mad-in
set of 1920. so that sJl commerce be
tween the islands and the United
States will be handled exclusively by
American owned and American oper
ated ahlps."
He pointed cut that one plan "will
necessitate various devices which
are the equivalent of subsidies, and
to this end the president and chair
man of the shipping board have sug
gested that such a corporation may
be given the transport service, the
mail contracts and other favorable
c-oni3e ration."

About 60 delegates were present,
Oregon having the largest number,
17 in all. A committee was appointed
to report on the feasibility and de
sirabilltv of the formation of a pri
vate corporation to purchase and
operate shipping board vessels from
all Pacific ports.
This committee was composed of
two members from each of the seven
ports recognised in the shipping
board's call, napiely, four from Call
fornia, two from, Washington and one
from Oregon. As Astoria had not
been invited, San -Francisco conceded
one of its votes to that port, making
two from Oregon.
The members from the northwest
of this committee were William
Pigott and H. F. Alexander of Se
att e, William Jones and John 8.
Baker of Tacoma, I. D. Hunt and H.
B. Van Duser of Portland and Roger
Plnneo of Astoria. The committee re
ported the following resolution, which
was adopted by the votes of all ports
except Portland, that port not vot
, ing:
"Resolved, That we recommend to
the conference that in response to
the shipping board's , request for
united action of the Taclfic coast
ports In the matter of purchasing and
operating certain shipping board ves
sels in trans-Pacif io trade, approval
of the purchase by private corpora
tlon to be formed of selected com
bination passenger and freight ships
on approved terms and conditions as
to price and government co-operation
such terms and conditions to be de
fined by a committee selected from
this conference.
"It is further recommended that
each Pacific coast port here repre
sented participate by representation
in the negotiations and in the form
ing of plans for the organization and
ownership of the corporation to take
and operate the vessels.
"It is further recommended that
when the committees aforesaid have
completed their labors, they report
to a called meeting of this confer
ence." .
On motion of Paul Shoup, chairman
of the committee, Herbert Fleish
hacker was requested to appoint the
other members of a committee to in
clude himself on negotiations with
the shipping board and government
authorities. It was also ordered that
another committee, to consist of one
member from each port represented,
be selected by the delegates repre
senting that port. That committee
will receive the report of Mr. Fleish
hacker's committee and carry out the
details of any proposed plan.
The reason given, for Portland not
voting for the resolution was that
that port's representatives did not
believe that sufficient details had
been disclosed as to the vessels to be
acquired from the shipping board or
as to the extent of the co-operation
of the government in the operation
of these vessels. Neither were suffi
cient details disclosed as to the plans
to form an operating corporation. Its
personnel or plan of management, so
as to assure to each port a competi
tive growth, based on its own advan
tages and energies.
Another reason Portland did not
vote against the resolution was that
if the committees appointed 'by the
conference should develop a practical
plan, safeguarding the growth and
development of each port under com
petitive conditions, Portland would
want to co-operate and take a sub
stantial part in the execution of such
a plan. Los Angeles, San Diego and
Astoria, while voting In favor of the
resolution, qualified their vote9 by
stating that the delegates would
refer the matter back to their re
spective chambers of commerce for
approval or rejection. The local and
visiting delegates were entertained
at dinner tonight by Frank Relyea,
agent of the shipping board for this
district, on board the shipping board
steamer Hawkeye, one of the 535 type
passenger vessels running to the
orient.

DEFENSE OF WIFE
Charge That Child Is Illegit
imate Held Not Denied.
LOVE LETTERS ARE READ
Indian Guide's Writings Introduced
'' in Effort to Prove Intimate
Relations.
NEW YORK, Jan. 20. James A.
Stillman's fight to have little Guy
StUlman adjudged illegitimate was in
tensified today in the appellate divi
sion of the supreme court.
The banker's counsel repeated
charges that Mrs. Anne U. Stillman
had misconducted herseir with Fred
Beauvais, Indian guide, who Mr. Still
man contends Is the father of Guy.
Love messages purported to have
passed between Mrs. Stillman and
Beauvais were read.
Counsel for Stillman declared his
wife had never denied the charge that
the child is illegitimate and answered
her recent predictions that Guy's good
name would be upheld in court by
saying her defense had not shown
reasonable probability of success.
The action today was on appeal of
an order which would have Mr. bun
man provide J75O0 to meet the ex
penses of a hearing in the divorce suit
at Montreal. The court reserved de
cision.
A. E. Jenks, ex-presiding Justice and
counsel for Mr. Stillman, arguing for
the appeal against an order directing
Mr. Stillman to pay his wife $7600
costs for a hearing in Canada, de
clared the banker had paid her $122,-
00s during the last nine months.
Wife's Defense AttaVkcs.
"The plaintiff in his complaint al
leges that Mrs. Stillman lived con
tinuously with Fred Beauvais, Indian
guide, in violation of her marriage
vows. She says these charges
deny,'" Mr. Jenks said. "There is
nothing to show that she denies the
possibility that she may have mis
conducted herself with Beauvais one
or more times. '
Mr. Jenks referred to letters al
leged to have ben written to Mrs.
Stillman by Beauvais. One of these
letters, sealed by Supreme Court Jus
tice Morscbauser, was read to the
court. The letter, dated May 20, 1919,
fellows: .
' My Dearest Honey: Thank you so
much for your nice long letter and
telegram. You don't know how much
it cheered me. I don't know what
happened to me, but I was sick up
to yesterday; not very, but fever and
heavy headaches."
Here the letter referred to the
writer's insomnia and more intimate
matters.
Words of Love Written.
"Yes, dear," it continued, "I am very
loneiv for you and miss you very
much; it s Just like as if there, were
no more lights In the world for me.
In your letter you say I was cruel
to you sometimes, dear. Yes, 1 know
I am bad and mean to you. but it
always makes me want to love you
more afterwards. Oh, but it seems
ages and ages ago since I've seen
you. but it will seem Just as long
to me before I will be able to take
ana hold you In my arms and give
you a nice nug.
"If anyone tries to make love to
you. down there, and I find it out,
I will kill them sure, because you're
all mine and Guy's, or rather, I am
all yours and Guy's to the end.
"With lots and lots of love to the
great beyond."
Another letter dated May 21 was
read, in part it said:
Mrs. Stlllman's Note Read.
"Let me know if you find it very
lonely out In the country and bow
you are fixed and if Mr. S. comes out
often. Have you spoken to him about
your dream that you had up here and
most of all about yourself and dear
Guy. You may think I am fooling
when I say that some day I am going
to kidnap blm and bring hJm up here
I'll first get you here and then I'll
bring Guy. Oh, then what a nice little
family it will be all sunshine and
love Just what I've always been
dreaming of and hoping for and what
you have too and hope we have it
soon together, honey dear, love." '
The letter concluded:
"With all my love to you and Guy.
. . . tnese are Kisses for vou
botn. Good bye, dear, for a little while.
"Yours ever and ever.
"FRED."
A note purporting to have been
written to Beauvais by Mrs. Stillman
and marked as an exhibit in the case
also was read. It said:
Dear, dear Freddie: Guy looks
like a dream today pink cheeks
and dark eyes and so happy. He sends
you nis piece of cake with its one
candle and his love."

a birthday party Tor. Guy, and the
two letters attributed to Beauvais

They were unsealed because the
case went to a higher court on Mr.
Stlllman's appeal from the 1 7500 ex

JAPAN DELAYS TREATIES
(Continued From First Page.)
It developed, however, that the hitch
was over Inclusion of the Japanese
Islands of the Bonin group under the
fortifications "status quo." and that
a difference of view on the question
had arisen between the Japanese
delegates and their home government.
Discussion of the treaty nuhllcatlnn
resolution In the far eastern com
mittee centered about the proposal to
include in the published list of com
mitments the various commercial
agreements entered into between
Chinese authorities and private lndl-
viouais aDroaa. since the foreign
governments are not themselves par
ties to these understandings, the
Japanese suggested it would be dif
ficult to make a complete compilation
of them. It was said, however, that
no open opposition to the resolution
came to the surface, and American
spokesmen predicted tonight it would
be adopted.
Powers Block Move.
The Shantung question must and
probably will be settled between
China and Japan and cannot be taken
up by the arms conference. Senator
Underwood of Alabama, one of the
American delegates, declared In the
senate.
The conference. Senator Underwood
said, was unable to take up the
Shantung question because seven of
the conference powers were com
mitted by the treaty of Versailles to
support Japan's position. The sen
ator's statement was made in connec
tion with introduction by Senator
Walsh, democrat, Montana, of a reso-
utlon calling on the president for in-
question. The resolution went over
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, '
another American delegate. Indorsed
Senator Underwood's statement.
Asjreemeurt In Expected. .
Senator Underwood went on to say
that in the negotiations between
China and Japan an agreement ap
peared near.
"From information, which I have,"
said Senator Underwood. "1 am hope
ful that at a very early date a satis
factory settlement will be arrived at."
Senator Walsh said he introduced
his resolution because it was re
ported that the conference was about
to break up without settlement of the
Shantung question. The senate, he
said, might hesitate to accept the
four-power Pacif'c treaty without
suca a settlement.
Senator Underwood said that no at
tempt to force a settlement "would
throw a monkey wrench in the ma
chinery of the conference."
Commitments t Be Filed.
As presented by Secretary Hughes,
the resolution provided that all the
powers file with the conference secretary-general
all commitments re
garding China to which they are par
ties, or of which they have knowl
edge, and that thereafter when a
new treaty or agreement was'made it
must be filed and published within
60 days after its consummation. In
its application to commercial agree
ments, the stipulation would cover all
concessions involving an obligation of
more than 11,000.000 silver, or which
constitutes a Hen on the Chinese
treasury.
Several questions relating to the
language of the proposal were raised
by the Japanese, whose spokesman,
Baron Shidehara, stressed the diffi
culties that might arise In practical
application of the plan. He expressed
a doubt whether his government had
authority to force its nationals to
make available to the 'Japanese for
eign office the text of all their en
gagements abroad.
Translations Held Difficult.
It must be understood, he declared,
that inasmuch as it was difficult to
translate exactly Japanese phrases
lr.to English, his government did not
propose to be bound by translations
of treaties which might be made for
the use of the secretary-general.
It was Indicated by the Japanese
group that they did not desire to take
final action until they had .heard in
more definite terms from Tokio, and
the committee adjourned with the un
derstanding that the discussion would
probably be resumed tomorrow.
The Chinese troops resolution
framed originally by the tariff sub
committee, was presented to the com
mittee as a part of the programme of
rebuilding Chinese finances. Sir Rob
ert Borden of the British delegation
spoke at length in favor of its adop
tion. Chinese Co-operation Promised.
A large percentage of the troops
now under arms in China are main
tained by various provincial authori
ties, it was said by the Chinese dele
gation, but every possible step wai
promised toward execution of the pur
poses of the resolution.
The decision of the draft sub-com
mittee for a future conference to dis
cuss rules of warfare was reached
after a canvass of sentiment among
delegates. The proposal is said to
have come from American sources.
The resolution contemplates selec
tion of two representatives of each of
the five great povers represented in
this conference. These, ten delegates
would be empowered to extend invi
tations to other powers to participate
OPEN' DOOR HELD IN FAVOR
Baron Shidehara Says Japan
Would Benefit From Policy.
, WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 20. (By
the Associated Press.) The resolu
tlons being adopted by the Washing
ton conference to benefit conditions
In China is welcomed by Japan, Baron
Shidehara, Japanese ambassador, said
In a statement tonight. .
"Apart , from any sentiment." he
said, "It is directly to Japan's interest
to associate herself with the other
powers In agreements tending to
stabilize China's domestic as well as
her foreign relations. Rivalry and
competition in China In the past has
been at times very costly to Japan.
By making the open door an equal
opportunity a fact instead of a motto,
as Mr. Hughes has said, Japan can'
not fall to be benefited as well as
China, and by regulating and making
public established rights in the fu
ture the dangerous situation of seek
ing improper advantages w'll be
terminated.
A China that is not in danger In
her foreign relations will relieve
Japan of much anxiety and a pro
gressive China will have more raw
materials with which to supply Ja
pan's industry and a greater pur
chasing power w'th which to buy
Japan's products. This is apart from
the fact that at the conference Ja
pan's primary policy la accord among
the powers."

second trial on a manslaughter
charge in connection with Miss
Rappe's' death. The testimony was
offered by Harry Boyle, assistant
manager of the hotel.
Boyle said he was called to the
Arbuckle suite during a party there,
and was told by Arbuckle that "a
lady was lying on a bed in one of
the rooms tearing her clothes off."
He visited the room and found Miss
Rappe "practically unconscious." he
testified.
An early adjournment of the
afternoon session was taken to per
mit Jury, court, defendant and
opposing counsel to inspect the
rooms in question.
Bribe Story Related.
Other witnesses today were Al
Semnacher, manager of certain mo
tion picture enterprises engaged in
by Miss Rappe; Mrs. Josephine Keza,
a chambermaid at the St. Francis,
and Jesse Norgaard, formerly night
watchman at a Culver City, Cel.,
motion picture studio used by both
Arbuckle and Miss Rappe. Arbuckle
on one occasion attempted to bribe
him to obtain the key to Miss Rappe's
dressing room, but was . refused,
Norgaard testified.
Semnacher told of coming by
automobile from Los Angeles to 'San
Francisco in company with Miss
Rappe and a mutual friend, Mrs.
Bamblna Maud Delmont. . and of
visiting the Arbuckle party, with the
women. A riding habit said by
Semnacher to have been worn by

duction today of a statement by Mrs.
Keza, a chambermaid, as part of the
evidence against Arbuckle. Mrs.
Keza said in the statement that she
listened at the door of a room in
the hotel while Arbuckle was alleged
to be attacking Miss Virginia Rappe
In such room. The death of Miss
Rappe following the alleged attack
was made the basis of the charge
against Arbuckle.
The defense contended that in the
statement Mrs. Keza contradicted
testimony she gave on the stand
yesterday. A new argument started
on the introduction by the defense
of portions of the statement and the
jury was 'excused until it could be

the United States and Canada, of all ages and in
all walks of life, afflicted with stomach, liver and kid
ney disorders, some of them of long standing, as well
as thousands of weak, thin, nervous men and women
apparently on the verge of collapse, have testified pub
licly that they have been fully restored to their nor
mal health, strength and weight by the use of Tanlac
Still others, who seemed fairly well, yet who suf
fered with indigestion, headaches, shortness of
breath, dizzy spells, sour, gassy stomach, coated'
tongue, foulness of breath, constipation, bad complex
ion, loss of appetite, sleeplessness at night and ter
ribly dejected, depressed feelings, state that they have
been entirely relieved of these distressing symptoms
and restored to health and happiness by Tanlac.
That is THE REASON WHY the de
mand for Tanlac, the powerful Recon
structive Tonic and body builder, has
broken all world's records.
Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl Drug Co. and
all leading druggists.
