THE MOKMXG OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 23, 1923 13 POINDEXTER RIVALS UNABLE TO AGREE Today Is Last Day Any Can Withdraw Name. NOTHING DONE AS YET Conference to Pick One Opponent Is Proposed, but Judge Griffiths Demurs. PUGET SOUND BUREAU, Seattle. Wash., Aug-. 22. -Wednesday is the last day on which candidates for the primary election in this state can le gally withdraw their names. The last hours of this possibility . are filled with talk of withdrawals ana evidences of earnest efforts to con solidate the anti-Poindexter forces in support of one opposing candi date. If this is to be done at all it will have to be done tomorrow, for even though a decision might De reached in the late watches of to night formal action would have to wait on the opening of public 01 fices Wednesday morning. Of course, a candidate for nomina tion can stop running at any time even after tomorrow, but in order to allow ' time for the preparation and printing of official ballots for mal action must be taken 20 days in advance of the election to get the candidate's name entirely out of the way. Conference' Is Suggested. Colonel George B. Lamping and Mrs. Frances C. Axtell, seeking the republican senatorial nomination against Poindexter, seem to have reached the conclusion that Pion dexter's nomination is certain if th9 opposition continues divided as at present. Colonel Lamping today proposed that the supporters of Mrs. Axtell, Judge Austin K. Griffiths and "himself get together and decide which of the three is the strongest candidate to pit against Poindexter. Lamping declares his willingness to abide by the decision of such a conference. Mrs. Axtell says she is also personally willing to submit to a conference decision, but not un til she receives the consent of those who induced her to become a candi date. Cn that score it is not likely that she need hesitate since it has alrttdy been admitted by the men who at first enlisted in her support that her campaign has made no progress. Judge Griffiths Unwilling. Judge Griffiths is unwilling to submit his candidacy to a conference decision. In the first place he de clares his belief that he can win the i.emination by not less than 35 per cent of the total vote cast. In the second place, he has been in clined to question the good faith of Lamping's proposal, since It is well known that Lamping has al ways beer, the first choice of some of the men who have been pretend ing tj support Mrs. Axtell. Should any of these men represent Mrs. Ax tell s interests in an elimination con ference. Judge Griffiths feels cer tain that they would turn prompt ly to Lamping. This belief is strengthened by the fact that Hearst's Post-Intelligencer j has been boosting Lamping and Mrs. Axtell and absolutely ignoring Grif fiths' candidacy. In short, the judge suspects that an effort is being made to Job him. He will have to be well assured of the impartiality of the conferees before giving any consid eration to the plan, and the time for any such assurance, conference or frameup is very short. ''I am willing to hold a conference with the two other candidates," said Judge Griffiths tonight, "but only the express understanding that I shall enter into no elimination as pertains to my personal campaign. I was in the field publicly long be fore the other candidates were." In other words. Judge Griffiths will enter a conference for the elim ination of Lamping and Mrs. Axteil. but not otherwise. 1 ItefWlPilIfc- 1 TODAY'S FILM FEATURES. Columbia House Peters In "Human Hearts."

It is a gripping, intensly human pictorial, analysis of life's greatest experience love. This exceptionally fine production is a screen version of the famous stage success written by Hal Reid. It was at one time the wonder of the spoken stage, having more road shows out at once than any other piece. For a decade it ruled in the field of melodrama, Just as the film production is now ruling in the silent drama. Perhaps no man on the screen has ever met with such a steady, cordial reception from the public as House Peters, the star of this picture. He has never made a great, spectacular "flare" in one picture, only to fliv ver in the next. He has had a re markably unvarying success. Be loved by thousands of picture fans, who enjoy seeing the plainer truths I of life illustrated by plain, forceful acting, Peters has an enviable standing. And he is at his best in "Human Hearts."

HOLD-UP SUSPECT HELD! ,' ' ': i MAX IX PEXDLETOX THOUGHT WANTED, IX PORTLAND. $5000 PLEDGED TO ROAD Klamath Falls Commerce Cham ber Backs Victory Highway. KLAMATH FALLS. Or.. Aug. 22. (Special.) Directors of the local chamber of commerce have prom ised $30f0 toward the $1,600,000 fund to build a northern branch of the "Victory highway from W'inne mucea, Xev., to connect with The Dalles-California highway in Klam ath county, providing California and Nevada counties subscribe the remainder. The road would push northwest from Winnemucca across 130 miles of Nevada desert, through Lassen and Modoc counties to the Oregon line. While sentiment throughout the benefited sections favors the rqad. it is considered improbable that the large sum required can bo raised as the territory immediately served is sparsely populated and the richer sections of California, further south, are not expected to enthuse over contributing to the fund, most of which must be spent in Nevada.

Last Wednesday's concert, broad cast from The Oregonian radio tow er, was heard very clearly at the Canadian government radio station at Alert bay, .located on the British Columbia coast about 250 miles north of Vancouver, B. C. In a let ter written by Egerton Brown, the operator who was on watch at the time, he writes that the musical numbers came in in good shape. Ho was using one valve, or audion tube, without any amplification. "Music of the kind, broadcast by The Oregonian station goes a long ways to break the monotony of the long night watches a radio operator stands," declares the Canadian op erator in his letter. "I hope you con tinue to broadcast that kind of a programme right along." Reception of the broadcasting sta tions in Washington and Oregon at Alert bay is uncertain, according to Mr. Brown. "I get in some of the stations down there very loud one night, and the following night all I can get is the carrier waves. I think that ai great deal depends upon the adjust ment of the tube, as when I adjust the tube criticially I finally manage to bring in the speech or music from the stations." Pleasure over the work which the Portland Kiwanis club, in conjunc tion with the other Kiwanis organi zations of the Pacific northwest is doing, and delight at being in port land again, were expressed yester. day by G-eorge H.

Kiwanis Work Exalted. Mr. Rosa emnhasized the 'work which the Kiwanis clubs ajl over the continent are doing to give a square deal to the under-privileged child. That, he said, had been the- main object of the organization since the convention at Toronto. Every boy and girl has" an economic value to the state and it is the place of every citizen to see that this value is increased, not diminished," he said. "Every child should have the opportunity to grow up to be a useful citizen. In Toronto the ctourts are paroning Doys to Kiwanians as guardians and the system is working fine." Visitors Taken Over Highway. Mr. and Mrs. Ross were met at the station by Kiwanians upon arrival from Olympia, where tney : attended a portion of the Pacific northwest district convention of Kiwanis clubs.

"The great keynote f Kiwanism is described in that well-known quo tation, 'What we "have done for our selves dies with us. What we have done for others remains and becomes immortal.' The cargo of Kiwanis doctrine is service and progress." Mr. and Mrs. Ross leave today for Ogden, Utah, and thence will go to California and around the southern states, making a circuit homeward to Toronto. ,. Officials Believe They Have Man Who Figured In Killing Here August 1 9. PENDLETON, Or., Aug. 22. (Spe cial.) Local police officials express the beiier that Fred Blake, arrested here this morning by Deputy Sher iff Merin, is one of the two men who held up and shot a man at George Steves' soft-drink place in Portland on. the night of August 19. The ar rest of Blake, who is a, confessed ex-convict, was made by Deputy Marin while the man was asleep in the pavilion of Happy canyon. - Be side the sleeping man was a .38 caliber revolver, loaded. Blake also had a flashlight and two pairs of pliers with him. Blake is wanted here in connec tion with the holdup at the rail road camp at Huron some time ago when three men stuck up the camp and made, away with the payroll. One of the men, caught passing a stolen check, is In the .county jail. Blake Is said to answer 'the descrip tion of the leader in the Huron holdup arid also, that of one of the men wanted for the Portland shoot ing -. A supposed partner of Blake, man who gave the -name of C. F. Wilson, also was arrested this morn- . . The two; it is believed, came from Portland on a freight.. Blake admitted his identity when he was confronted by pictures of himself taken at the Wyoming state penitentiary. He is 30 years of age. He was released in 1921. If Blake is taken to Portland it will be for the murder of Mark Botich, a. customer in the soft-drink resort in Port land, who was fatally shot when the holdup was effected.

Descriptions of the' two men held in Pendleton, ,were.-received yester day afternoon by Captain Harms and were said to tally somewhat . with descr'ptions . given by .those who were in George SteiffV. soft drink place at the tim of the robbery and murder last Friday night. Piotures are expected from Pendleton today and unless , those "who aw the two robbers can identify them the sus pects will not be brought to Port land, it was said. The revolver found on Blake car ried no conviction to inspectors that Blake was the murderer, as it was a .S7-caliber revolver and the shoot ing was with a .32-caliber automatic pistol. Steiff also used a .32-auto-mati'c pistol and inspectors picked up 14 empty shells of that caliber that lay about the floor. One of the robbers was thought to have been wounded, but inspectors admit that Information to that ef fect. might have been - fallible. Neither of the Pendleton suspects was suffering from wounds.
