House ways and means committe

ently unlooked-for snags late today
In further consideration or me emu
nromise soldiers bonus DHL witn
r.iiit that the formal presentation
of the measure to the house will be
dplavpd for several days. It was un
derstood that an unsuccessful effort
-K-BK made to confine the bonus
largely to the adjusted service cer
tificate option. The other differences
were said to have been unimportant.
After a morning session of the ma
jority committeemen. Chairman J ord
ney announced that it was the plan
to eomrjlete the bill In the atternoon,
Introduce It In the house immediately
and formally present it tomorrow
after a session of th entire commit
tee. He added that meantime he
might discuss the measure with Pres
ident Harding.
Time Given to Stndy BUI.
It seems that the proposition to re
quire the democrats on the committee
to cast their vote on the bill without
bavins: full opportunity to consider
it met with some opposition from the
majority eide. and It was Indicated
that when the measure was put in
final form, by the republicans the
minority members would be given
tim to ertudy its provisions before
final committee action. The bill will
be taken np again tomorrow by the
t republicans, it was said, with the
ihope that it could be completed be
fore night.
Changes made In the bill at the
two sessions of the majority mem
bers today were said to have been
Jargely of a technical ' character.
Committeemen declared that no im
portant alterations had been made
in the compromise plan eliminating
the cash bonus, except where the men
were entitled to $50 or less, and sub
stituting a bank loan section to tne
adjusted service certificate title au
thorizing national and state banks
and trust companies organized under
state laws, to loan certificate holders
tip to SO per cent of the adjusted
eervice credit.
Loan Feature Is Adjusted.
Representative Longworth of Ohio,
a member of the committee, told
newspaper correspondents that the
majority was not disturbed by criti
cisms of this section of the bill. He
thought the former eervice men
would have no difficulty in realizing
on the certificates, saying that the
amount of each loan would be email
and that the small banks would be
asked to advance only a compara
tively small total.
i discountable by federal banks, nor
I could the bank making the original
1 loan have the certificates redis-
counted by other banks. He added
-t hat the section was so drawn that
the certificates could not get out of
the hands of the banks except through
transfer to the government. j
The suggested provision of the bill
ender -which immediate relatives of
eervice men who have died since their
discharge from the armed forces would
be paid on the basis of the value of
the adjusted service certificate, was
not reached by the majority today.
Some opposition to such a provision
lias developed and a fight over it was
forecast.

LITTLE GIRLS ATTACKED
Daughters of Prominent Salem
Families Victims of Assailant.
SALEM, Or, March 6. (Special.)
Members of the Salem police depart
ment, sheriff's office and operatives
of the district attorney's office, today
were searching for an unidentified
man about 30 years of age who yes
terday enticed two little girls, 8 and
10 years, into a pasture in a remote
section of the city and attacked them.
The children are members of prom
inent Salem families, i
The man forced his attentions upon
the girls as they were on their way
to Sunday school. Neither of the
girls could furnish a description of
their assailant. Physicians were
summoned and gave the children
medical attention.
NEW TORK, March 6. (Special.)
Mrs. Margot Asquith, who believed
prohibition was a good thing when
she arrived in New York a few weeks
ago, has returned from a tour of the
country, entirely alienated from the
notion.
. "I was much in favor of prohibi
tion at first," she said, "because I
thought it might stop drinking
'among the poor and In a prohibition
country the poor woman would re
ceive her husband's wage instead of
it being spent on a Saturday night.
"But a little experience of the
actual working of the law quickly
changes one's views. The drinking
by your young men and maidens is
shocking. I am told nothing like it
was known before the days of pro
hibition. It Is due, apparently, to the
fact that drink is forbidden. It 1
considered 'chic' to violate the law.
Drlnkingr Worse In Chicago.
The drinking among .young women
was apparently worse in Chicago, ac
cording to Mrs. Asquith. She said
that nearly everywhere she found
the men and women she met talking
of the subject and deploring it.
When asked if the drinking among
the young women was worse her
than In England and on the continent,
she held up her hands and said:
I never in all my life saw
ball
or party or any public function in
England. Such a thing would be un
heard of. I did not see any young
women intoxicated in Chicago or
elsewhere in this country myself, but
I was told of It on every side.
"I saw it," said her secretary.' "

fluence of liquor at a large party
which we attended in Chicago. They
were not completely drunk, but were
quite perceptibly under the influ
ence."

of an Important conference in Port
land last January, when the tree dis
ease was studied by government ex
perts and rSh-sery men with a view
to stopping it from spreading into
Oregon and Washington from the re
gion where it was firsts detected In
the Pacific Northwest.
At that time the federal horticul
tural board decided to install a staff
of eight inspectors in the two states,
the only part of the country where
such preventive action has been
taken. The board has been unable to
place the inspectors before April 1
and the forest service employes will
do their work until that time.
Inspection will begin at once, ac
cording to the local forest, service
bureau, at Portland, Blaine, Seattle,
Tacoma and Spokane.

VANDALS RANSACK SCHOOL
Doors Broken Off Hinges and Of

Vandals broke Into the Montavllla
school some time Saturday night and
broke down doors and office desks in
their search for money, according to
a report made yesterday to the police.
The burglary was discovered when
Principal McCord opened the school
building yesterday morning.
Practically every door had been
broken off its hinges, while every
office desk in the rooms of principal
and teachers had been "jimmied"
open. Mr. McCord said the prowlers
had procured about $10 in small
change from the various desks. Noth
ing else was missed, although there
was considerable property damage.
Water Extension Discussed.
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., March 6.
(Speclal.)-"-Chamber of commerce di
rectors tomorrow will discuss with
Paul B. McKee, general manager, and
other offficials of the Californda
Oregon Power company plant pans for
additional water mains. The proposal
to increase the water supply originat
ed with State Fire Marshal Barber,
who said the city needed additional
water facilities for fire protection.
Installation of the water mains it is
said, will prevent an increase in fire
insurance rates that "would aggregate
$60,000 a year.
Prohibition Held Bad.
"Prohibition is unquestionably
Tery bad thing as it is administered,'
said Mrs. Asquith. "The rich get all
they want to drink. I don't know
about the poor, but I understand
there is no scarcity of liquor.
"The only sensible thing, it seems
to me. Is to return to light wine and
beer. One of the noticeable things
about your life In this country, is the
way you are being interfered with by
the government. This is hot a free
country like England."
Mrs. Asquith does not think the
United States sufficiently respects ex
service men. The only regard it has
for them seems perfunctory: England
and Canada take much better care of
sick and cirppled ex-soidiers, she said
l am arraid that, speaking gener
ally, this country has fotgotten them,
sne, saw. "The people take no per
sonal interest in them. I am not
speaking of this bonus question of
which I hear so much. Money is no
good. It will not help.
Sick Are Not Visited.
"But you do not visit the sick and
crippled men In the hospitals. You
don't entertain them In your homes
or show them any attention. I dont
care so much about the bonus or how
good the institutions may be. It isn't
the state touch that is needed, but
the individual touch, the personal
kindness.
"When I was in Chicago I visited
a great hospital full of sick and crip
pled soldiers, lonely and forgotten
men. I believe I and those with me
were the only visitors. We saw no
others. The physicians who took us
through emphasized the size, the ex
cellence of the apparatus, the fine
baths.' But they tried even to keep
us from talking to the men. We
found It difficult to have a word with
them. They feel keenly, I believe, the
fact that they have been forgotten.
It is not so in England and Canada.
The personal attention, respect . and
kindness shown them Is much greater."
POINT YIELDED BY UNION
Timber Workers Permitted to Fill

lumber plants while -the timber
workers' strike is pending. This
point, was yieiaea provwiea the eight

pany's plant. The request of the
Ocean Bay Lumber company of San
Francisco for a crew of men to load

a local company was denied, although
an eight-hour day was offered for
the period of the job.
A telephone message . from Weed,
Cal., this afternoon said the Weed
company's 1000 employes are still a
work and that 300 workers at Mc
Cloud walked out this morning.
WASHINGTON, D. C, March 6. It
will be unwise for the democrats to
prolong the debate over the arma
ment conference treaties in the sen
ate, because "every day's debate will
tend to divert attention from the
economic issue," in the coming con
gressional campaign while the demo
crats will be placed in the position
of opposing "any steps toward peace,"
William Jennings Bryan declared in
a statement here tonight.
"The sooner these treaties are dis
posed of the better," Mr. Bryan de
clared. "I do not mean to say that
no reservations should be adopted.
Any reservation that any democrat
wants to propose should, be proposed
and debated, but there should be
no unnecessary delay. We denounced
the republicans for delaying the
action on the treaty of Versailles.
Why should we bring condemnation
upon ourselves by delaying action
upon these treaties, especially as by
doing so. we divert attention from the
economic question which must be par
amount in the fall campaign?"
Mr. Bryan declared that the demo
cratic party had a splendid prospect
of "gaining the next congress," which
would "enable us to lay the founda
tions for a winning campaign In
1924."' As might have been expected,
he added, the "weakest point in this
administration is its economic
policy."
The revenue bill enacted at the
list session, Mr. Bryan described as
"bad," adding that it "ought to be
the leading issue In the west because
it was the western republicans who
revolted against republican leader
ship," when the bill was drawn.
The four-power Pacific treaty, he
contended, was "based upon the 30
treaties negotiated by the last ad
ministration," and when the demo
crats vote for this treaty, he added,
they are simply approving their own
policy which the republicans have
adopted."

to Marketmaster Eastman yesterday
afternoon. A warrant for his arrest

fowls."" Before the stall was located

hickens in the rear of his automo
bile. He parked the machine and
deserted it before the officers could

WASHINGTON, D. C, March 6.
Complete co-ordination of congress
with the federal budget system was
provided for by a change in senate
rules adopted today by a vote of
63 to 14, centralizing all money ap
propriating powers in the senate ap
propriations committee. Heretofore
the army, navy, postoffice, agricul
tural and other appropriation bills
have geen considered by respective
committees.
The senate change follows the
house centralization of money bills
in . the appropriations committee at
the last session. The new senate
rule provides that three members
from each of the other appropriating
committees shall be ex-officio mem
bers of the senate appropriations com
mittee. Adoption of the new senate
rule will have the result of all ap
propriation bills in both branches of
congress being handled under the
budget system.
Democrats Fight Plan.
Senators Harrison, democrat, Mis
sissippi, and Reed, democrat, Missouri,
led the fight against the change in
the rules.
The latter said that instead of ex
pedition the change would cause con
gestion of bills before the appropria
tions committee. Senator Reed also
said the plan involved concentration
of power in the president through a
budget commissioner. Incidentally he
referred to General Dawes, budget
commissioner, as "the man whose
chief title to fame is that he came
down here and cursed a committee of
congress."
Senator Underwood pointed out that
the 1920 democratic platform declared
for the appropriation centralization
in a single committee, but Senator
Reed said the plank was "slipped in."
Five Republicans Opposed.
Of senators voting for the new rule
45 were republicans and 18 demo
crats. Five republicans Borah. Cap
per, Ladd, McNary and Stanfield op
posed the rule, together with nine
democrats Ashurst, Caraway, Brous
sard, Harrison, Heflin, Heed, Walsh
(Massachusetts), Watson (Georgia)
and Williams.
After adoption of the new rules.
Senator Harrison gave formal notice
that he would make points of order
as provided at every opportunity to
enforce the new rule absolutely. He
carried out his declaration almost im-
mediately by objecting to legislation :
in the District of Columbia appro
priation bill, a wrangle ensuing which
lasted for more than an hour after
Vice-President . Coolidge had ruled
that the new procedure should not
apply to bills previously reported
from committees.
