NEW HIGH SCHOOL
vPLISTISK
v"
Northeast Section of City
Assured of Building. .
MUNICIPAL AID GRANTED
Co-operation With' District Opens
Xew Relations That Promise
Much for Educations
Plans for Portland's new northeast
high school took definite shape late
yesterday afternoon when members
of the school board and City Com
missioner Pier, acting with the ap
nroval of his fellow commissioners.
ratified a plan for co-operation be
tween the school district and the
city in improvement of the 40-acre
tract between East Thirty-third and
East Thirty-seventh streets and
Tillamook and Knott streets.
The new building, modern in every
respect, will be erected upon a ten
acre section and the city will im
prove the adjoining tract for park
and recreation purposes. A fringe of
lots, 43 in number, on the south and
west sides, will be sold, returning,
probably, the approximate cost of
the school board purchase, $42,000.
Co-operation Itegarded Important.
It was considered that the ar
rangement worked out is most ad
vantageous from every standpoint,
both fof the school district and the
city. Perhaps, best of all, the trans
action marked the beginning of a
new era In development of schools
in the city in that there was co-
operation between the city and dis
trict officials that promises much
in future.
After a thorough inspection of the
site, the board' held a meeting on tb"e
ground. Present Were board mem1
bers, Commissioner Pier, C. F. Wie
gand, assistant park superintend
ent; D. A. Grout, city school super
intendent; Charles A. Rice and Ed
gar H. Whitney, assistant superin
tendents, and" W. C. Knighton,
architect of the projected school
uuuuing. Appreciation 01 me co-operation
of the city, and particularly
for the good offices of Commissioner
Pier, was expressed In a. resolution
adopted by the directors.
Tracts Adjoin Each Other.
The three tracts affected by the
agreement adjoin and are Without
buildings. The city owns the Ver
steeg tract of 18 acres, which will
be deeded to the school board and
the board will deed back to the city
such parts of the tract as are not
needed for buildings.
The district will purchase the
Wright tract of 13 acres and deed it
t't the city and the park board Will
purchase the Kern tract of 11 acres,
establishing a community of inter
est between the city and school dis
trict for joint harmonious Improvement.-
The city will develop the Wright
tract and make a park, playground
and athletic field, with swimming
pool, tennis courtSr community house
and recreational facilities. The tract
is partly wooded and Dr. B. E.
Wright, who has arranged to sell it
to the district, agreed to take $3000
an acre for it for school purposes,
although he had been previously of
fered $5000 an acre but had de
clined it.
Other Trades Enter Deal.
Two other trades of property enter
Into the deal made yesterday. Lin
coln park, a two-block tract next
the Albina homestead school, will be
given to the district by the city
and Beech street will -be vacated.
. giving a school playground.
In return the board will deed to
tbe city a piece of property it owns
on the slope of Mount Tabor that ad
joins the city property used for
liowers and greenhouses by the park
bureau.
Plans are to go ahead immediately
and cross-section the tracts involved
in tne transaction and the park bu
reau will fill and landscape the
property preliminary to the entire
improvement.
commissioner Pier regards the
agreement as a splendid arrange
ment for all concerned and expects
It to bring about an era o closer
co-operation between the city and
scnooi district that will be helpful
in future.
High Schools Needed Badly.
School board members expressed a
like feeling. Director Woodward
said the need for more high schools
in the rapidly-growing east side,
must be met and the project under
way seemed to help conditions to a
great extent.
A street will be opened along two
Bides of the school tract to open up
the row of lots to be offered for
sale and high-cjass residences win
be built to give attractive surround
ings. The athletic facilities to be
supplied by the city park bureau
will, it is pointed out, relieve the
district of much expense while pro
viding the very facilities desired for
high school students.
EDITOR'S ARREST ASKED
(Continued From First Page.)
of inducement-would desist from it
upon request of the law oficers of
the state.
Open Defiance Offered.
"William Allen White of Emporia,
Who has been one of the strike sym
pathizers from the beginning, is the
first man openly to defy the law of
ficers in this matter and to declare
his intention to display the slogan
of the strike leaders In his shop
window and to continue this form of
encouragement to the men who are
now violating the law of the state.
Mr. White is a man with potential
following in the state and his dec
laration that he did not intend to
obey this law has aroused a sym
pathetic response among other
strike sympathizers. - .
"Cards that were taken down yes
terday in obedience to the request
of law officers are being put back
today as the result of Mr. White's
action, and a new spirit of hostility
and determination has been aroused
in the minds of the strikerss who
believe that in Mr. White they have
secured a champion whose example
will justify them in new acts of
disobedience to the law..
Arrests Held Necessary.
"It 1 now apparent that we are
not going to 4e able to stop this
practice in Kansas without arrests
and prosecutions. No distinctions
will be made as to Individuals, no
matter what their standing may be
in the state or nation. Certainly
we cannot make any exception of
Mr. White s case.
"The case has nothing whatever
to do with any man's right of free
speech. It is simply concrete ques
tion as to whether a citizen is go
ing to obey the law of his state
both as to its spirit and its letter,
or be permitted to boastfully en
courage others in the violation of
the law at a moment when the sit
uation is tense with danger to gov
ernttifcht."
A representative of the attorney'
general's office is to leave for Em
poria tomorrow morning with the
confirmation for swearing out the
warrant which will be served on Mr.
White some time tomorrow.
Wide Interest Attracted. '
- The break between Governor
Allen and White has attracted na
tion-wide interests. They have been
cronies in business, politics and In
their social relatlohS for a, long time
They toured Europe together.
They were together in France
during the world war. Political
alignments in Kansas have been
kaleidoscopic in the last IB years,
but through it all, "Henry and me"
have been one and inseparable.
At the present time White is
stoutly asserting that tie believes
in the industrial act. But that the
law never contemplated taking
away from him or any citizen the
right to free expression of opinion.
During the Special session of the
legislature of 1920, which enacted
the ihdustrial court act, Mr. White
appeared before the legislature in
support of its passage.
Before allowing the information
for the warrant to be drawn up
tonight, the governor asked several
times if the arrest of: White would
hurt "Bill's standing with the
people of Kansas." Governor. Allen
appeared more worried than he has
at any time during his administra
tion, which has? witnessed more spe
cial sessions of the legislature and
more callings out of the national
guard than any since the times of
the Indians and the border ruffians

MR. AVHITE NOT TO YIELD
Sign to Remain,. But There Is No
Bitterness Felt.
EMPORIA, Kah.i July, 20. His
impending arrest for defiance of the
Kansas industrial court law by
placing a - placard, sympathizing
with the striking railroad shopmen
in a window of the office of the
Emporia Gazette, had no terror for
William Allen White tonight
"I won't take down the sign. - It
is going to stay there in my win
dow," he said to a friend.
Mr. White said he had been in
formed today by close personal
friends of both himself and the
governor that Governor H. J. Allen
was going to sanction the proposal
to place him under arrest.
Mr. , White could not be seen
personally tonight. A business
associate said that he "has not been
feeling very well lately," and that
he was spending the evening at
home. - . '
That no feeling of personal enmity
or. bitterness is connected with the
present controversy- was declared
emphatically by Mr. White before
he went to his home tonight. "
"Whatever happens, my personal
feeling for Governor Allen remains
unchanged, Mr. White said.

jMiiany iney secured the co-opera
tion of men who run hotels, grocery
stores and restaurants in some of
the shop centers and prevailed upon
them to refuse to sell groceries to
or provide accommodation for anv
of the workers who had come in to
take the place of the strikers. The
Btate interpreted . this interference
as picketing and compelled all who
werec arrying on this form of boy
cott to cease it.
"Having failed in all their other
picketing plans, two days ago the
strike Jeadexs inaugurated a new
progranTme. They provided them
selves with large window cards con
taming a declaration of sympathy
for the strikers and a hope that
they would win the strike. The com-
' mittee called upon merchants in two
or three shop towns and insisted
upon the merchants placing these
cards in their windows. This plan
was for the purpose of creating an
atmosphere of hostility toward
those who were continmuing to
work.
Conspiracy Charge Made.
"The attorney general ruled that
this well organized action on the
part . of the shopmen and their sym
pathizing friends constituted-a part
.of the conspiracy t deprive the
public of transportation. This ac
tion constitutes a direct and public
approval of an unlawful act and
amounts to a conspiracy on the part
of the store keeper and the striking
shopman to deprive the public of
transportation.
"Upon this request of the gover
nor and the attorney general, most
of the merchants took down these
cards and the city governments in
the various places reported that the
cards would all come down. No ar
rests had yet been ordered for this
offense, as it was thought that the
law-abiding business people- of the
state who were aiding in this form

State Shocked by Hostility Be

(By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)
TOPEKA, Kan., July 20. The
totally unexpected outbreak of
hostilities" between "Henry and
Me" has all Kansas gasping for
breath today. I
Here Is the spectacle of two
"musketeers," boon companions at .
Armageddon, . veterans of sanguin-
ary assaults upon str6ngholds of j
predatory interests, brother adven
turers on the strife-torn fields of j
France, torn asunder at last byi
that child of one and godson of the j
other "the industrial court."
"Me," being William Allen White,
editor of the Emporia Gazette, , ac? .
tually faces prosecution for viola
tion of the court of law by placing
a sign in the window of his news
paper office announcing "69 per
cent sympathy with the striking
railroad men."
"Henry," being Henry J. Allen,
governor of Kansas, has not deter
mined on any action yet but has
been in conference with Attorney
General Hopkins and Judge McDer
mott of the Industrial court, and ,it
is probable that some announce
ment of the "strategy" of the cam
paign against "Bill" White will be
made. ,
Chairman of Board of Directors
Declares Lines Will Not Be
Sold, as Rumored.
The Portland Railway. Light &
Power company is not going to sei
its properties in and around Port
land, as has been rumored, but g
ahead with a development and im
nrovement programme more exten
sive than for years past.
C. M. Clark of Philadelphia, chair
man of the board of directors, mad
this plain yesterday upon his return
from an inspection of the site' of the
projected Three Links station
the Oak Grove district on the upper
Clackamas river. In company with
Franklin T. Griffith, president, and
other officials of the company Mr,
Clark viewed the power site an
declared himself well pleased with
the prospect for big new develop
ment therev
Preliminary construction work will
be started next October, he said,
when the river will be about at its
lowest and work on dam founda
tions can best be accomplished.
There will follow a long term of
construction of the reservoir, power
house end pipe lines and it will nst
be before 1924, in all probability,
that the new station will be op
erated. .
Mr. Clark found a bonsiderable
improvement in one respect during
the three years intervening since
his last visit to the power site. Then
it was a difficult task to reach the
spot, but on this trip it wae possible
to go almost the whole way by au
tomobile over a private road the
company is building.
More money will be available this
year for improvements to the com
pany's property than for some time,
Mr. Clark said, and better service
and added efficiency are the objects
sought. He said the only thing that
has halted a consistent policy of ex
tension and development In the past
nas been the uncertainty of operat
i ing the rail Hhes at a profit.

murder theory entertained by dep

of Samuel Dibb, 76, formerly of To
ronto, Canada, whose body was
found yesterday In the hills near
Inglewood, a suburb, was abandoned
late today after an interview with
the dead man's daughter, Mrs. Flor

ory of foul play.
"He was feeble and scarcely able
to take care of himself," Mrs. Aus

alone and wandered about, some
times' forgetting his way home. He
had no enemies, rarely talked about
his business and never carried any
large sums of money or jewelry

Sam Goldberg: Dragged Girl Into
Water and Almost .Drowned '
Her, Is .Testimony.
If any admiring ' friends were
planning to get a,, wreath of laurel
for the brow of lSrye.ar.-old Sam
Goldberg they- might just as well
cancel the order, because Sam won't
need it. If they wish, they might
get a little .bouquet of flowers,
which would help to brighten the
drab cell where Samuel win 'repine
lor tne next two aays.
For the metamorphosis came yes
terday in police court when Judge
Ekwall transformed, the erstwhile
hero into a jail-bird. Goldberg, em
ploye on the river boat T. J. Potter;
proclaimed to the bright-eyed world
last Saturday night that he was a
hero-j andNlidn't give a hang who
knew it. He had dived, nose first,
into tbe swirling waters of the Wil
lamette and dragged forth the limp
and dripping form of fair Madeline
Berberich, a bather, who had ven
tured too far into the water while
splashing around near the O.-W. R.
& N. dock.
But Sam's popularity,; was short
lived. Miss Berberich. appeared at
police headquarters a couple of days
ago and told the city attorney that
Sam had dragged her into the water
and had pulled her out in- a some
what clumsy manner when he found
she couldn't swim.
The girl appeared in police court
yesterday as complaining witness
against the youth, and told Judge
Ekwall the truth about bam s lite
saving efforts. He had almost
drowned her, she testified, and then
Helped her out after she had sunk
for the second time. -
"Sh dared me to do it," pleaded
the youth. "I didn't want to scare
her."
"Neither do I want to hurt you nor
scare you, but I think a couple of
days in jail might take a few of
these' romantic and heroic ideas out
of your head," was Judge EkWall's
answer.
