THE MORNING OREGOXIAX. SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 1923 3 1 L SHIPS TO GET IKOILSM ES Underground Storage Plan Is Abandoned. LOSS TO BE PREVENTED SE TO BREAKING POINT ARMY IS HELD CLO Interior Department Adopts Xew Policy of Handling Fuel llcserves for Fleets. wASHivr.rny r -.. April 14. A niMr nntiiv in li -i n 1 1 1 i n IT reserves of fuel oil for the navy involving aHanHnnment nf AtternDtS tO keep the oil in etoraee underground, was an nounced today by the interior depart ment. The project was worked out in co-operation with the navy depart ment, the statement saia, ana in volves the permanent storage above c-roiind of "royalty oils" derived from naval oil reserve lands In California and Wyoming, storage to be made by operators at points on Dotn coasia suitable for quick supply of fleets in emergencies. "Contracts have been made and are now being made," the statement said, "which will insure the navy ample storage for all the fuel oil which it has obtained now, and which it will hereafter obtain from such reserves. This storage will be located at such points that in any time of crisis or need the ships of the United States can obtain the same at points from Guantanamo, Cuba, to the extreme northeast of Maine and from Cali fornia to Hawaii." Loss to Be Prevented. The new policy Is the outgrowth of the effort to solve controversies growing out of the setting aside of certain oil lands for naval purposes for which congress paved the way with the oil land leasing act. The interior department pointed out that under the previous practice of at tempting to provide for storage un derground, oil in navy lands was be ing drained away by adjacent private operations, and that the so-called naval reserve" would be exhausted within a few years. Under the new leasing and "royalty oils" storage plans, the department's statement said, such loss would be prevented and the navy be assured o an immediately available reserve sup ply of oil fuel at all times. Tho interior department's state ment says in part: Theory upon which these naval reserves were created was that sup plies of oil should be thus insured for the use of the navy as fuel. Private Claims Filed. "On each of these reserves private claims had been filed or presented In one form or another, some of which were approved by the supreme court of the United States, others by de partmental actions and others pend ing without either judicial or de partmental action. "Under the law the interiorjjepart- ment was to adjudicate claims or dividuals, the navy to have for its purposes any royalty oil derived from such claims, as well as to have the title to. any royalty oils produced from its own properties within either of such reserves to which no private claim had attached, or against which no such claims were pending. "It became evident that, the theory of maintaining a reserve of oil under the ground where other drillings by private individuals entitled so to drill were being carried on, was not tenable." It became apparent that to carry out this theory of fuel oil re serves for naval purposes the oil must either be extracted and stored where it would not lose by evapora tion, or that other bodies entitled to drilling would receive the benefits directly, of the oil under their own lands and would from day to day exhaust the oil under the navy hold ings so that within a few years in any event the so-called naval reserve would be exhausted and tho navy thus lose all benefits therefrom, while a iew inaiviaual claimants would re i;eivo oeneuts to wnich they were not entitled. After full examination and consideration by the best experts wnuse opinion we could obtain, it became apparent that we must se cure storage for such naval oil above ground or at least in con tainers of some character." home state of the station, was re- jected, 66 to 32.

Fresh Attack Provoked. This letter provoked a fresh attack on navy estimates by Chairman Kelley, who produced a letter writ ten by the secretary to the president on April 5, saying he had recom mended a strength of 96,000 and be lieved that with that number "the navy can be maintained with a rea sonable degree of efficiency." "And so the secretary has written the gentleman from Massachusetts," Mr. Jvelley shouted, "that he could get along with 86,000. How can a com mittee act on such varying and shifty estimates from the navy de partment? "If we wait a couple of days, won't the secretary come down to your fig ure of 67,000?" asked Representative Roach, democrat, Missouri, but the chairman did not reply.

"Of course, the decision must lie with the congress, but I should not be frank in replying to your inquiry if I did not say that I shall be greatly disappointed, and I believe the country will be greatly disap pointed, if the appropriation, to which the navy must and will adhere, is Teduced to the point where the limi tation of enlisted men and appren tices IB below 86,000 . No presentation of the situation, which has come to my notice, has served to alter that opinion. "Ultimately, perhaps, the lower figures proposed may be reached, and I hope it will be possible through international concert, but the trend toward peace and security ought to be more firmly established before going beyond the limitation to which we were gladly committed at the international conference. "Very truly yours, "WARREN G. HARDING." Each Side Claims Victory. The vote on the en'isted provision section will come tomorrow. On the eve of the battle both sides tonight still were claiming victory. "Everything is fine and the bill, as written, will pass," said- Chairman Kelley. who Is in charge of the bill. "We will win unless too many of our supporters leave town for Eas ter," said Representative McArthur of Oregon, republican member of the naval committee, ready with an amendment providing for 86,000 men the moment the section is reached. Friends of the "big navy" had planned early today to force the fight over until next week, but Chairman Kelley resisted all attempts to delay. When the measure was called up to be read, item by item, the clerk had barely turned a page when the fight started on the enlisted question, and it raged unceasingly until night. In the end, the house, worn out by hours of talk, quit nine pages ahead of the disputed provision. One amendment was accepted' and one was voted down. There was no objection to the first, by Represent ative Towner, republican, Iowa, for an increase from $250,000 to $343,000 for the government of the Virgin islands, but the other, for increasing the appropriations for the Great I Closer Co-operation Between Ore gon and Washington in Fighting Crime Decided at Conference. VANCOUVER, Wash., April 14. (Special.) A conference of the traffic officers of Washington and Oregon was held here this afternoon in the chamber of commerce clubrooms. From Oregon those present were L. V. Jenkins, chief of police of Portland, Captain Lewis, Sergeant J. J. Keegan, Lieutenant Frank Krwin, all of Port land, and T. A. Rafferty, chief inspec tor of the traffic division of Oregon, and his assistant. From Washington were L. D. Mc Ardle, director of efficiency of Wash ington; Oregon Leady, chief inspec tor; Sheriff Thompson, J. E Hall, county attorney; W. C. Bates, city at torney; Henry Burgy, chief of police of Vancouver; the county commis sioners, W. A. Schwarz, county en gineer, and several other officials. The object was to obtain a closer co-operation among the traffic offi cers in city, county and state and be tween officers of Oregon 1 and Wash ington. T. A. Rafferty expressed a willing ness to do all in his power to co-operate between the states. Mr. Lewis suggested that one way to assist in recovering stolen cars was to have the data broadcast by radiophone at a certain time each day. It was sug gested also that legislation be ap proved to require all machines to be WASHINGTON, D. C. April 14. (By the Associated Press.) The question of military preparedness arose today in the senate appropria tions committee during its considera tion of the army appropriation bill. Discussion of the subject was brief, but senators said the question of a national policy had grown out of the fight over the house reduction in the size of the army. Major-General J. G. Harbord, deputy chief of staff, and Brigadier-General Lassiter, in charge of military op erations and training, appeared be fore the committee to present the war department's views on the subject of the house cut,- the former Insisting that the organization was strained to the breaking point now under the forced reduction of a year ago, and the latter describing the plan adopted by the department for "building up at low expense" the forces required in a national emergency. J. -.0,000 Men Held Needed. "If provision is not made for 150.000 men," said General Harbord, "then we who are charged with operation and maintenance of the work must ask congress to restate for us the mission of the army." The statement followed a series of questions by Senator Hitchcock, dem ocrat, Nebraska, who contended that the "European idea" of preparedness had been proved wrong by the world war. General Harbord declared that the United States would have saved much money upon which it is paying interest if 'it had been properly pre pared for the war. The work done by the American army, he said, was at extraordinary expense "and would have availed nothing had not gallant little France held the line until we got our machinery going.". . j Military Attache Offices Closed. j In connection with the army reduc- i tion. General Harbord said that it had been necessary to "close" nine mili tary attache offices. He includes among those closed Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Czecho-Slovakia, Hungary and Ecuador, not naming the others. He also told the committee that the war department was again seriously considering the abandonment of some of the army posts and the concentra tion of forces into those retained. It was disclosed also that the de partment contemplated an early "scat tering' of the first and third di visions, now stationed at Camp Dix, N. J., and Camp Lewis, Wash., respec tively. The troops of the first di vision will be distributed around the New York harbor posts. General Har bord said, while those at Camp Lewis will be placed in various of the posts of the Pacific northwest. One of the reasons given for the transfer of the troops was that the barracks of the two wartime camps were "literally going to p'eces" and in some in stances were in such condition that men discharged would not re-enlist. Big Potential Army Goal. A potential army of 2,000,000 men is the goal set by the war department in laying its plans for national de fense, according to General Lassiter. The 2,000,000 ' man army would be and at least one more is in prospect and others are discussed. Candidates now in the field are A. J. Hodges of Albany and G. A. Gefeke of- Albany, republicans, and J. D. Isom of Albany, democrat, for the long term, and D. C. Thorns of Sc'o and W. A. Eastburn of Albany, both republicans, for the short term. It is regarded as certain that D. II . Pierce of Harrisburg, republican, who is the retiring commissioner, will file for re-election. RAILROADS HELD TRICKY DUPLICITY IN CHARGED IN ARGUMENTS HEARING.

This plan is be ing worked with complete success in Michigan. It is the plan of the department to have a crew of two men with Tour loadometers in a car, to work out of Vancouver. With these loadometers the loads can be weighed on the trucks where they are found on the highways. Harry Williams, supported by all local officers, will be appointed traf fic patrolman for all of the paved roads in Clarke county. ' J. E. Hall suggested that legisla tion be enacted that will not compel peace officers to procure warrants to search a car. It was shown that per sons going to Canada for a load of whisky would often change license numbers on the car and when they came back would pass the officers waiting for them and escape. It was decided to hold similar con ferences here at least quarterly. CONVICT FIGHTS RELEASE Attorney for Charles Smith Wants Men Kept in County . Jail. The unusual spectacle of an attor ney resisting the release of his cli ent without bail, was presented in the court of Presiding Circuit Judge Tucker yesterday when Earl F. Ber nard, counsel for Charles B. ("Air brake") Smith, insisted that the man be kept in the county jail pending hearing on a forgery indictment. Smith has about eight months more to serve in Salem on a revoked parole term. He was released from the penitentiary recently and turned over to local detectives, charged his attorney, and during his stay here the indictment was brought. Bail was fixed at $3000. The attorney said that had Smith been released he would have been ar rested on leaving the courtroom and taken to Salem out of reach of his legal advisers. A civil action against Tom Swennes, city detective, is pending as an off-shoot of the Smith case. three-sixths to the organized reserve, As in the world warf in time of hos tilities these forces would be at once merged into a homogeneus entity, under unified federal control. If the broad plan on which work is now progressing is abandoned, ne warned the committee, the United States "will have to face in the next war the same chaotic conditions as heretofore. The present authorized strength of 150,000 men, the witness said, per mitted the department to maintain only 39,108 as infantry and 9178 as cavalry ttoops ready for instant service nearly 60,000 men being re quired for overhead, administrative and instructive duties of various sorts. Since the tactical units are at present below full strength, even this theoretical available force of infantry ana cavalry is larger than could be actually depended upon in case of immediate need, he added.

WALLA WALLA, Wash., April 14. (Special.) The controversy between union printers and the two Walla Walla newspapers, the Morning Union and Evening Bulletin, settled down today apparently to a long fight. The union printers rented a room in the downtown district as strike headquar ters. Their organizer has apparently made no progress in reopening negotiations. as the publishers are standing firm. saying tney intend to continue the open shop here and that conditions are satisfactory with the new crews. Papers continue to be published with regular-sized editions and practically on scneouie time. The publishers have declared that they have plenty of men to meet any emergency. FIRE BUG'S PLANS FIZZLE Attempt Made to Burn Grain Ware houses at Walla Walla. WALLA WALLA, Wash., April 14. (Special.) Nature upset the plans of a would-be incendiary to burn the Pacific grain and elevator warhouse at Thiel station. A candle was fast ened to a block of hardwood and placed in a basin of oil. The candle was then lighted and left. However, as the candle burned the wood raised until it floated on the oil and the candle burned out. An oil soaked paper, left to act as a fuse to another basin of oil alongside also failed to work. The Incendiary had built boards around the fire to prevent the light being seen through cracks of the warehouse. The attempt to bum the warehouse was discovered Wed nesday morning when the foreman entered the warehouse. Burning of the warehouse would have destroyed several thousand bushels of w&eat. RACE IN LINN IS MERRY Five Candidates In Field for County Commissioner. ALBANT, Or., April 14. (Special.) With at least one candidate filing every day the race for county corn- Widow of Physician Who Was Slain In December Leaps to Death From Third Story Window, NEW TORK, April 14. Another tragedy growing out of the sensa tional murder of Dr. Abraham Glick stein by Mrs. Lillian Raizen in Brook lyn last December was recorded when his widow, Mrs. Anna Glickstein, ended her life by leaping from the third-story window of her mother's home in Brooklyn. The doctor's mother dropped dead at his funeral. Mrs. Glickstein had been laboring under a heavy mental strain since her husband was shot, members of the family indicated, and it was said she had been brooding over the recent acquittal of Olivia M. P. Stone for the murder of Ellis Guy Kinkead, for mer Cincinnati lawyer. Mrs. Paizen, who has confessed the murder of Dr. Glickstein, is now a prisoner in the same jail where Miss Stone was incarcerated, awaiting trial. Mrs. Lena Tubansky, mother of Mrs. Glickstein, said that at the time, of Miss Stone's trial her daughter ex claimed: "If the Stone woman goes free, the woman who murdered my nusoana will go free. Any way, as long as the doctor is dead, I might as well be dead myself." Frances Glickstein, 15-year-old daughter of the deadwoman, who came from Lakewood, N. J, to spend the holiday season, slept with her last night, the mother retiring about midnight. Frances said her mother seemed to be a little more cheerful than usual. When Frances awoke early this morning her mother was missing. Soon afterward a police man who had found the body on the sidewalk awakened the family. Mrs. Glickstein's head had struck an iron post at the entrance to the house. Lines Said to Be Fighting for Pub lic at One place and Against i Public at Another. CHICAGO, April 14. Railroad man agements were .declared today to be fighting for the public before the railroad labor board in Chicago and battling against it in Washington before the interstate commerce com mission when the railway clerks pre sented their defense to wage de creases sought by the carriers before the labor board. "The carriers are now arguing In Washington that a rate reduction can not be made on the basis of wage re ductions." declared E. H. Fitzgerald, president of the clerks' union. "Be fore this board they promise to trans late wage reductions into rate de creases. They are fighting for the public here and battling against it in Washington. "They are similarly arguing that such a rate reduction would not stimulate traffic, while here their first and primary assumption Is that reduction of wages would be felt in rates, resulting in increased traffic. Wage reductions in the past resulted in dividend increases, a reduction now would probably have the same result, to judge by the attitude of the carriers before the commerce commission." Mr. Fitzgerald interspersed numer ous exhibits with attacks . on the roads, which he declared would "push our men one step nearer an animal existence to provide augmented in comes for the railway owners," if they succeeded in obtaining another wage cut. Among the exhibits shown was one giving earnings since 1895, when the average annual salary of a railroad clerk was $716.79. The average for 1920 was $1594, an Increase of 121.5 per cent, but meantime the cost of food, the ex hibit showed, had increased 203 per cent, while the, purchasing power oi the dollar decreased 11.7 per cent. P ARBUCKLE COSTS S1 1 0,000 DEFENSE CHARGES EXCLUSIVE OF ATTORNEYS' FEES. Gavin McNab, Actor's Chief Coun sel, Declares That Pay Has , Not Been Arranged. SAN FRANCISCO, April 14. The defense of Roscoe C. (Fatty) Arbuckle in the three manslaughter trials in connection with the death of Miss Virginia Rappe cost more than $110. 000, not including attorneys' fees, it was learned here today. The bring ing of witnesses from Chicago and other distant points . entailed the greatest portion of this expense. It is the plan to release all of Arbuckle's films which were com pleted at the time he met with his difficulties in San Francisco. This will be done gradually. The comedian himself has not perfected his future plans, but, according to those close to him, these lay between again re turning to the screen as an actor and directing the production of films. Arbuckle was asked to present a monologue between pictures by two of the biggest motion picture theaters here after hi acquittal Wednesday, but declined to do so. He explained his refusal with the statement: "I do not care to capitalize my good fortune so soon .after achieving it. There is a sentimentalism at tached to the acquittal that must come before any commercialism. I will return to my profession when I consider it proper to do so." No fees have been received by the defense attorneys as yet, it was ex plained today by Gavin McNab, chief counsel. It was arranged that no fi nances were to be considered "until Arbuckle had been cleared," McNab said. FISH LEGEND REPUDIATED Salmon Eats After Leaving Salt Water, Says Warden. VANCOUVER, Wash., April 14. (Special.) A salmon does eat after it leaves salt water, according to Mr. Wyckoff, fish warden, who on Feb ruary 12, took a 16-pound salmon when he confiscated an illegal net. This Chinook had 11 smelt in its stomach. - It is a legend which every salmon fisherman has heard that a salmon does not take food of any kind after it has left salt water. This one was taken -in a net set in the Lewis river. Mr. Wyckoff also confiscated a 300 hook sturgeon line below the Standi fer shipyard last nigbt. He saw a man in a boat putting out the line about 10:30 o'clock and when he ap proached, the poacher threw the line overboard. Mr. Wyckoff had to drag for the line until he found it. It is illegal to take sturgeon of any size until May 1, and then they must be three feet long before they can be kept by the fisherman. Minister Overcomes Handicap. SOUTH BEND, Wash., April 14. (Special.) A meeting of the ministers of the Presbyterian churches in southwestern Washington was held iD South Bend this week. Some 1J visitors were here. Rev. Ernest A. Reed of Trout Lake, Wash., received first prize for making the greatest effort to get here. To make the trip from Trout Lake he traveled eight miles over two feet of snow, eight miles by carriage, nine miles by auto stage and then took three trains, traveling in all about 205 miles. Trout Lake is in Klickitat county, between Mount Adams and the Columbia river. The ministers decided to hold their September meeting there.

A hot fire had been built in the furnace Tuesday afternoon and evening to warm the church for meeting of southwestern Washington ministers. Two members of the en tertainment committee, who had al ready gone home for. the evening thought that they would return to the church and see that it was properly closed for the night. Entering the edifice, they found it filled with smoke from a fire hidden in the rear wall. v Sheep on Way to Range. NYSSA, Or., April 14. (Special.) A large number of sheep are on their way to the" summer range, as hay is scarce and the price raised to $8 a ton. Most stockmen of this vicinity report that February lambing averaged around 100 per cent and some as high as 120 per cent. Cold and snow caused a slight loss later, as sheepmen were forced to hold and feed sheep so long owing to the scarcity of grass in the hills. Parent-Teacher Body Elects. ABERDEEN, Wash., April 14.
