13, THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 12, 1922 PETITION SIGNERS' WORD IS ACCEPTED Hundreds of Names Sealed, Certified, Unknown. NOTARY IN SALEM COURT Paul Turner of Portland Tells of Procedure in Case of Inter est Rate Amendment. SALEM, Or.. Sept. 11. (Special.) Paul Turner, Portland notary public, when called to the witness stand in the circuit court here today to testify In the case brought by S. S. Johnson and others to restrain the secretary of state from placing the so-called interest rate amendment On the ballot at the November elec tion, said he had placed his seal and denature on a.number of blank pe titions and fefien turned them over to other persons. He admitted under examination that lie had never seen hundreds of the names to which he certified. Judge Kelly, -who Is sitting at the hearing, whirled, about in his eeat and remarked: 'Now, let me get this straight. Do you mean to say that you put ytfur name and eeal on these blank pieces of paper and never saw the signatures ?" "Tes," replied Turner. "I had the understanding that I would be al- nwnn t n rnnrr ivp r inn itamcB. A. never got that chance." Only One Identified. Previously Mr. Turner was ques tioned with relation to his acquaint ance with a large number of per sons whom he had certified as quali fied voters. Out of 38 names re ferred to Mr. Turner he was able to Identify only one as a personal acquaintance. Mr. Turner was asked by Attorney U'Ren, if it was not a fact that most of the signatures were obtained in the public streets. The witness an swered in the affirmative. "Your acquaintance with most of these signers consisted of meeting them ih the street and asking them for their signatures?-" continued At torney U'Ren. "That was not all," replied Mr. Turner. "For instance," he said. glancing anxiously at Judge Kelly, "If you see a woman in the street with a basket, and she is not look ing around, she is not a sight seer. If you have been out in public you can sort of tell whether she is a resident or not." Signers Word Accepted. Mr. Turner said that when he asked the signers if they were legal voters he accepted their answers as the truth. W. H. Carter, another notary pub lic, testified that his acquaintance with a person who signed the peti tion largely was limited to meeting them on the day they affixed their signatures to the petitions. Other notaries public who testi fied at the hearing today included Caroline Herman, Otto Newman, Charles Lorati and L. Maud Stiles. All of the notaries summoned here to testify are residents of Portland. C. N. Laughridge, deputy secre tary of state, testified with relation to receiving the petitions, which are now on file in the state department. Mr. U'Ren and Mr. Johnson alleged in their complaint that approximately 8000 of the signatures to the petitions Were certified by notaries who were not personally acquainted with the signers as pro vided by statute. It was said here tonight that all notaries public commissions which cave been abused by persons to whom they were issued probably will be revoked by Governor Olcott. Other Measures Attacked. Mr. Johnson, one of the plaintiffs In the case, is an attorney with offices In Portland. The interest rate amendment was Initiated by J. F. Albright of Oregon City. Similar attacks are being made on the salmon . fishing and fish propagation amendment initiated by G. G. Green of West Linn and the graduated income tax measure in itiated by the Oregon state grange. Judge Kelly has taken the in terest rate case under advisement. Marine Notes.

BUSINESS ON INCREASE Abundant Facilities to. Be AS' sured for AH Pacific Coast Shipments. ' Confronted by a rapidly climbing volume of eastbound lntercoastal cargo, the American-Hawaiian line yesterday announced the schedud voyage of the steamer Kentucklan to Europe had been changed as the big carrier has been ordered dl verted to the domestic run.

The Columbia Pacific Shipping company, Oregon agent for the serv ice, had official advices yesterday that there were increases in west bound business of late, that will make a marked difference in deliv eries at Pacific coast cities during the next few weeks, yet arrange' ments-were such that abundant fa cilities would be assured for all shipments. The steamer Hawaiian is already on her way east with Sep tember cargo from Portland and the Minnesotan is to work the last Port land cargo tomorrow and finish on the lower river so as to head for sea Thursday. The Texan is to be here September 21 to load for New York and Boston and she will be gotten out of the way Just ahead of the Kentucklan.

Shipping Board Action Taken as Indorsement of Attitude of Op erators in Opposing Boost. Reduction of the trans-Pacific cereal rata from (6 to $5 a ton, ef fective immediately, . on shipping board vessels and privately con trolled ships, was accepted in ship ping circles yesterday as indorse ment of the attitude of certain steamship operators at the time the rate waa raised from $4 to $3 a ton that the increase was excessive in view of the condition of the oriental cereal market. It was understood that the matter had been taken up with the shipping board with the suggestion that the $5 rate, which had been fixed for October bookings, be made the groins; rate. . The advance was recorded early in August. The $4 freight was in effect, but the movement of cargo exhibited a healthier aspect, so space for early . loading was in greater demand, it betag reported that premiums were being paid in some instances, $4.50 being men tioned as having been paid for cer tain bookings. About that time the shipping board fixed a rate of $5 for October, and shortly afterward the $6 charge was ordered placed in force for August and September reservations. However, space on Portland ves sels of the shipping board fleet had been largely taken and with the expectation that the $6 freight might be shaded on the representa tion of operators virtually no- book ing was done here at the top-notch, figure. The $5 rate applies from Puget sound cities as well as from Portland and is said to be generally acceptable to all lines that have been represented in recent sessions ; having for their object the reforma tion of the trans-Pacific conference, which was disorganized as a conse quence of the cutting of rates in the spring.

It is estimated that between 10, 000,000 and 12,000,000 yards of ma terial wiU be handled there and at the peak of the work from two to three of the port dredges, as well as private equipment, will perhaps be engaged. . In obtaining the material, cnannei requirements in the vicinity will be taken into consideration as much ai possible. It is hoped not to handle material with the Tualatin for a greater distance than 3000 yards. Trestle work ashore in preparation for the fill has been completed. J. H. Polhemus, general manager of the Port of Portland, will be on the ground today while the early work Is gotten under way. The dredging was arranged with the port as eauloment was available, since the channel dredging programme has reached a stage that would nave meant part of the fleet being or dered out of commission had not the Kelso job been accepted. COMBINATION SHIPS AWAITED Consideration of Application for Assignment Creates Interest. That serious consideration is being accorded application of leading ship ping interests for the assignment of three combination passenger and freight steamers for the Portland Oriental service, is daily impressing those who had to do with initiating the movement. The fact an early decision in the matter has not been announced is accepted in some quar ters as evidence that the proposal is being studied by the shipping board on its merits. In support of local attitude, re minders are cited of the opportunity afforded Commissioners Chamber lain. Benson and Lissner on the oc casion of a public shipping board hearing in July, relative to section 28, of the merchant marine act, to make a close study of Portland's commerce, her advantage in many respects over other harbors and the promises for successful operation of combination transocean vessels irom here. BALTIMORE ROUTE FAVORED Cargo Shippers Advised of Lower Rail Rate in Territory. Bearing on reported congested con ditions at Philadelphia, attributed to railroad strike developments, American-Hawaiian Steamship company, through the Columbia-Pacific Ship ping company, has issued a circular directing the attention of Oresn shippers to a difference of one cent in rail rates in the territory west of Philadelphia and Baltimore in favor of the latter port and sug gesting that consignments be routed via Baltimore for the present. It is said that besides lower rates the Baltimore gateway lowers relief in the way of railroad and water fa cilities. As to the time in transit it is be lieved routing via Baltimore will not cause delays, but that It will make it possible to clear up freight accumulated at Philadelphia since railroad labor difficulties arose.

Council Takes Trip to Mill Site and Agreement Is Reached for Proposed Construction. Members of the city council Jour neyed to East Fiftieth and Powell Valley road yesterday and settled a controversy that has been raging for a' week or more concerning the construction of a apur track into a mill Kcated at the. corner. Property owners, or at least the majority of them, opposed the con struction of a spur track from Thirty- fourth avenue southeast, entering the mill from the south, on the ground that it would be In the front of the residential property in that section. The millownefs were willing: to have the spur, track located any where that did not cost more money than the investment would warrant. The least cost wasi attached to con struction of the spur from the south. Oity officials did not favor the en tranC3 of the spur from the north on the ground tlt it would interfere with traffic coming; into East Fif tieth ctreet from both Powell Valley road and Foster road. So with the city engineer the council traveled to the site of the mill and after viewing- the property a settlement satisfactory to ail con cerned was reached when City En gineer Iaurgaard worked out a new route which will bring the spur along Eat Fiftieth etreet to the center of the building and thence into the mill.
