THE MORNING OltEGONIAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1923
f IE FOR SEMES
OF CRIMES IS FIXED
Confessions Made by Three
Young Offenders.
MURDER CASE UNSOLVED
Responsibility for Kobberies and
Forgeries Committed in Three
States Established.
Confessions by Marvin Bailey,
Clifford Hubbard and Elbert Hub
bard, arrested Tuesday night
Ivy police inspectors, established re
sponsibility yesterday for a series
of crimes. Including robberies and
forgeries committed in three states
in August, but failed to clear up
the murder of Marco Botich, soft
drink stand proprietor, killed Au
gust IS in a holdup at 354 North
seventeenth, street.
Statements by Bailey and Elbert
Hubbard placed on their shoulders
resuoiisibility for the robbery ol
two gasoline stations in bacra
menta, Cal., August 7, the robbery
of another station at Front and
Porter streets in Portland August
IS. the holdup of a laundry wagon
the Same night, and partial respon
sibility for a string of robberies in
Portland on the nights of August 4
and 6, when tne Murraymeaa garage,
a,-garage in Brooklyn, and an east
siae comecnonary store were en
tered. But they did not connect
them with the murder of Botich,
inspectors said. A net designed to
fasten the crime on other members
of Ihe alleged gang is Doing tignt'
ened.
A etrange tale of anti-social ac.
tivities was laid before Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Mowry and inspectors
yesterday in the police station. Dar
ing, - yet singularly lacking in
finesse, was the series of infrac
tions of the law which began Tuly
29 with a burglary at Seaside in the
office of I. C. Tillman, contractor,
and ended three weeks later with
the gasoline station robbery at
Front and Porter streets.
Bailey, by far the cleverest mem
ber of the trio and admittedly the
ringleader, with Elbert Hubbacd,
varied their venture into crime by
, a trip through California and
Nevada, begun on the night of Au
gust 5, following a robbery here,
and ending in time for the commis
sion of the last August 18. While
on this trip, it is said. Bailey made
himself liable to federal prosecution
for Mann act violation in the trans
portation of Opal Mack, IS. He de
clared yesterday that his relations
with her were not such as to war
rant prosecution. '
"This is the first time that I was
ever sorry in my life," said Bailey
yesterday, and perhaps the keenest
reason, for this sorrow, coming as
it does three months after his re
lease from a term in the Missouri
state prison, lies in the fact that he
has been married but a month.
His 18-year-old wife, whom he
characterized as the "sweetest girl
in the world," i left alone and
penniless in- Portland by reason of
hia arrest, he said.
FAIR BILL IS ATTACKED
Complaint Seeks to Restrain
Measure From Going on Ballot.
SALEM. Or, Sept. 20. (Special.)
ine constitutional amendment which
proposes to allow the city of Port
land to tax itself for $3,000,000 to
defray the cost of the world's ex
position in 1925 was attacked in
the Marion county circuit court here
today through a complaint filed by
S. s. Johnson and Rogers MacVeagn,
Portland attorneys. The complaint
asks that the secretary of state be
restrained from placing the amend
ment on the ballot at the November
election.
The complaint sets out that the
original petitions filed in the state
department contain 16,092 names,
but that the county clerks failed to
compare 15,514 of them with the
registration cards of the voters.
This comparison, the complaint al
leged, is necessary to comply with
the law.
The date for the hearing has not
yet been set by the court, but it
probably will be held within the
next tew days. It was said that
most of the testimony probably will
be taken in Salem. .
WEDDING CURES DEFECT
Re-marriage Is Necessitated ' By
Clergymen's Error.
VANCOUVER, Wash., Sept. 20.
(Special.) Mr. and Mrs. Sam E. Pea
cock, who were married here re
cently, have been greatly embar
rassed by newspaper reports that the
second marriage was the outcome of
a divorce and a subsequent recon
ciliation. They contradicted that re
port today, declaring that the sec
ond ceremony was the result of a
mistake by the clergyman who of
ficiated at their first wedding, in
Oakland, Cal., January 1, 1916, and
who wrote the name of his own wife
as one of the witnesses, when as a
matter of fact another woman acted
as witness.
The couple declared that the sec
ond ceremony was merely to clear
up a dispute as to the legal status
of the marriage..

AUTHORS VISIT RAINIER
PUTNAM PARTY ENTRANCED
BV NATIONAL . PARK.
Scenic "Wonders of Big Reserve
Explored by Writers and
Artists Two Days.
TACOMA, Wash., Sept. 20. (Spe
cial.) Fresh from their further
conquest of western scenic wonders,
the authors' party headed by George
Palmer Putnam reached Tacoma
this afternoon following two days
in Rainier national park.
"It's great, like tne Columbia
river highway," exclaimed Ruth
Hale. "We in the east have seen
movies of Rainier national park and
other western scenery, and we have
been shown many photographs; the
timetables of the railroads are
filled with the pictures, but it was
hard to believe that such wonderful
things really exist."
"I am going to head the Kawa on
a trip to Mount Rainier next year,"
said George S. Chappell, the Dr.
Traprock of the famous cruise of
the Kawa. We are going to have a
cargo of eastern writers and artists,
for nowhere I ever have been is
there the inspiration to write we
find here in the Pacific northwest."
Wallace Irwin knows the west
but made his first trip to Rainier
park and was first to don a hiking
suit to explore the Nisqually glacier.
While Rainier park closed Sep
tember 15, the service was main
tained to show the . authors one of
the show places of the northwest,
and on foot and by horseback they
visited several glaciers and climbed
to a point more than half way up
the south side of Mount Rainier.
Mr. Putnam says the western trip
Is bound to be reflected for years
to come in future offerings of this j
group o well-known men and
women.
During the visit to the park
weather conditions were ideal. The
return trip was made this afternoon
and at Tacoma David Whitcomb
con-ducted the party to Seattle on
his yacht. After a dinner this eve
ning the authors will leave for the
Pendleton Round-up, and from Pen
dleton will return to New York.
In addition to Mr. and Mrs. Put
nam the party included Wallace Ir
win, Charles Hanson Towne, George
S. Chappell, Frederick O'Brien, Wal
ter. Trumbull, Ruth Hale, Hubbard
Hutchinson and John Held Jr.,
Robert Sawyer of Bend, Or., joined
the party in Portland as the guest
of the Putnams.
Mr. and Mrs. David Whitcomb and
Jack Eddy of Seattle, with H. A.
Rhodes, T. H. Martin, Frank S.
Baker and Lloyd W. McDowell were
at Paradise inn with the authors.

FUTURE OF FOISTS
TO BE SAFEGUARDED
Big Association Organized
to Combat Fire Menace.
ROADS ARE HELD VITAL
Main Purpose of Body Declared
to Bo Interesting Congress
in More Liberal Policy.
For the purpose of combating the
menace of forest fires the National
Forests Protective association has
been organized in Portland. The
main purpose of the association is
to urge congress to provide appro
priations for more roads through
and adjacent to the forests.
Even in September fires are in
the national forests from Canada
to Mexico and there has been no
estimate made in dollars of the
damage done to timber this year.
The association hopes to have every
United States senator and represen
tative in congress from the 11 na
ational forest states behind a move
ment for more liberal appropriations
with which to build commercial
highways in the forest belt.
Officer Named for Body.
Officers of the National Forests
Protective association are J. L.
Childs of Crescent City, Cal.; presi
dent, and Arthur Conklin of Port
land, secretary-treasurer.
The advisory committee consists
of George P. Topping of Bandon,
W. A. Wood of Gold Beach, B. F.
Jones of Newport, Ol S. Blanchard
of Grants Pass, H. L. Walthers of
Medford, O. G. Steel of Yreka, Cal.,
C. W. Parker of Marshfield, Charles
Lamkib of Ashland and C. T. Haas
and F. W. Thompson of Portland.
"According to government esti
mates more than one thousand mil
lion board feet of timber has been
destroyed by fire in Oregon and
Washington during the last five
years," said Mr. Childs, "and we
know that much of it could have
been saved for future generations
if highways had been constructed
into, through and adjacent to these
forests.
Number of Fires Great.
"During the years 1918 and 1919
the records at Washington show
that 52,000 forest fires in our na
ational forests burned 19,000,000
acres of timber. We have in the
United States only enough timber
to last us 40 years at the present
rate of consumption, if none is lost
by fire. Something must be done
to reforest our immense holdings
and to protect this timber we now
have and it is up to the govern
ment to do it. The people in the
other 37 states have as much in
terest in the forests as we, but
they are not fully advised as to
what must be done in order to save
them.
"Our national forests cover an
area greater than Germany over
156,000,000 acres and there is stand
ing in the forests of the United'
States about 2,000,000,000,000 feet
of merchantable timber.
Consumption on Increase.
'"We are using about 56,000,000,000
feet a year. If we fail to protect
what we have against fires and
plant more trees we will have no
use for sawmills 40 years hence."
To get at a fire in a forest roads
are needed for the fire fighters and
equipment and this is why the as
sociation is stressing the need of
government appropriations for the
building of these safety lanes.
LUMBERMAN VISITS CITY
R. A.
IiOXG IiEAVES ON TRIP
TO NEW TOWN.
Millmen Think Iongview Will
Have Population of 18,000
in Year's Time. .
R. A. Long, chairman of the board
of directors of the Long-Bell Lum
ber company of Kansas City, Mo.,
arrived in Portland yesterday morn
ing and left within the hour for the
new industrial town of Longview,
Wash., where the company is estab
lishing its western headquarters
and huge mills. He was met by S.
M. Morris, manager of the plant,
and motored on to Longview.
Longview just at present is mere
ly the site of a city, but one of such
certain promise, Mr. Long and his
associates maintained, that within a
year from its founding it will have
a population of not less than 18,000.
This estimate was based upon the
fact that the Long-Bell company
will employ from 4000 to 5000 men,
who logically will be residents with
their families of the future lumber
metropolis. When to such a compu
tation is added the natural influx of
other residents, such as seems as
sured, the prediction mounts rapid
ly to 30,000 or more. So assured are'
officials of the company that Long
view is to spring into being as al
most by sorcery, that their plans
call for the immediate erection of a
$350,000 .hotel. The initial sewage
system of the new town is calcu
lated upon a maximum population of
50,000. .
ONE IS INJURED IN FIRE
SHERIFF CANDIDATE SUF
FERS BROKEN' ARM.
Fred O. Bowman of Vancouver
Jumps From Firewall Onto
Concrete Sidewalk.
VANCOUVER. Wash.. Sept. 20.
(Special.) Fred O. Bowman, can
didate for sheriff in the recent pri
maries, suffered a broken arm at
the fire of the Standard theater
last night. He was on an adjoin
ing building and jumped from a
firewall to an old porch. It was so
thin he dropped through to the con
crete sidewalk and suffered a com
pound fracture.
The old theater was uninsured.
but W. C. Stumberg, who was clos
ing out a grocery business, had
$5500 insurance on the etock, which
he. says was worth $7500. Mr.
Stumberg did not know of the fire
until he read of it in The Oregonlan
this morning.
The belief is prevalent that the 1
Ti i A wn a At hnf Tin nrrAQta havA l
been made. The authorities are
making an investigation. The fire
started on the second floor of the
building, which was erected in 1885,
but has been used as a storeroom
until this year, most of the time
for the last 20 years. It belongs to
Joseph Mulligan.
The Portland fire department was
given great praise today for send
ing over two of its engines, which
reached here in 15 minutes.
When spinning over the bridge
between 50 and 60 miles an hour
the drivers did not think about
the tolls, but the ticket-taker
flagged the first truck and made
the driver pay. .The second truck
was flagged, but the driver did not
pay. He told the ticket-taker sev
eral unpleasant things, and con
tinued his journey. The tolls paid
were repaid to the lieutenant pay
ing them.
The Alaska Junk company, in the
building next to the theater, suf
fered mostly through water, though
some sacks were destroyed. The
company had $1000 insurance.
Two companies of fire fighters
from Vancouver barracks assisted
materially in fighting the fire.
The Lyman Body Works, in the
store next to Stumberg's, was re
cently taken over by the sheriff, so
the creditor's will lose what there
was there, as it had been attached.
Work of removing the debris had
begun early today, though the ruins
were yet burning.

WAY TO BE OBSERVED.
Prunarians Ask Oregontans
Take Trip Prom Vancouver
to Kalama, Wash.
to
' VANCOUVER. Wash., Sent. 20.
(Special.) To celebrate the comple
tion of the Pacific highway from
Vancouver, Wash., to Kalama, the
Prunarian organization of Vancou
ver and Clarke county are extending
an invitation to Portland and other
Oregon motorists to come, see and
enjoy one of the most interesting
runs tributary to Portland next
Sunday, September 24.
This run from Portland via Van
couver to Kalama over the new con
Crete paved highway will be one
continuous tour of scenic thrills, of
new scenes as a diversion, declare
the Prunarians. The new work
from La Center to Kalama is said
to be one of the finest pieces of
concrete paving in this state, being
of 20-foot width, with all grades
and curves standardized. The broad
sweeping series of loops as one
drops down into the La Center val
ley, through which flows the south
fork of the Lewis river; the innum
erable panoramic views covering the
rich bottom lands of the Woodland
and Kalama districts, with several
bodies of water for contrast; charm
ing views of Mt. Hood and St. Hel
ens and pastoral scenes are features
of this 34-mile run from Vancouver.
Three loop tours have been
outlined by the Prunarians for mo
torists: To Kalama and return to
Portland via the Kalama-Goble
ferry and lower Columbia River
highway; to Kalama and thence to
Kelso over a gravel section or the
highway and thence to the Long-
Bell ferry connecting with the
lower Columbia highway at Rainier
and furnishing an opportunity to
see the great development of the
Long-Bell company in the making;
to Kalama and thence back through
La Center to the Pioneer corner,
then turn right over hard surface
to Ridgefield and back to Van
couver through the prune sections
of Sara, Felida and Fruit Valley,
where the harvesting of this fruit
may be seen from the gathering to
the drying, packing and shipping.
Loop one would be of 83 miles,
loop two of 105 miles ad loop three
loop two of 105 miles and loop three
Vancouver back to Portland.

JUDGE REBUKES LAWYER
Woman Gets Default Decree Any
way, But Counsel Suddenly
Turns Cool.
Romancing Ty attorneys in sen
sational divorce petitions filed with
out consulting their clients, after a
few salient facts have been ascer
tained on which the suits might be
based, was discouraged in the court
of Presiding Circuit Judge Staple
ton during default divoree day yes
terday. Gertrude Hessler had asked for a
divorce from Emil Hessler. The pe
tition filed by Thomas R. Hamer,
her attorney, described with wealth
of adjective the shortcomings of
Hessler and his personal habits.
Among other things it referred to
the fact that Hessler cultivated
cooties and described how they
would march and , counter-march
along his spinal column in battalion
formation. Other military terms
were sprinkled throughout the com
plaint. Attorney Hamer, who re
cently came to Portland from Idaho,
having been a colonel in the world
war.
Figure of Speech Abound.
The phrases in which the petition
was couched were well designed to
rouse the risibilities of those perus
ing it, being prolix with metaphor,
hyperbole and imagination.
"Did your husband have lice?"
asked Attorney Hamer in the course
of examining his client on the wit
ness stand as to the cleanliness of
Hessler.
"No," she answered, and the at
torney would have passed on.
"Here) wait a minute," spoke up
Judge Stapleton, who had been
reading the verbose complaint,
didn't you say in your complaint
that cooties marched in battalion
array up and down his spinal col
umn?" "No, sir. He put that in I never
told him that!" The witness was
quite indignant.
The judge followed with other
quotations, and before he concluded
there existed considerable coolness
between client and lawyer. The
allegations, however, were suffici
ently sustained to justify a decree.
It is a common practice for an
attorney to tell a client to "sign
there" after a divorce complaint is
prepared, without the petitioner
reading the allegatifns, or even to
persuade the person desiring the
divorce to sign a blank sheet with
the assurance that allegations just
made verbally will be Orafted in
proper form ahead of rhe name.
26 Other Default Cases Tried.
Twenty-six other default decrees
were awarded by Judge Stapleton
yesterday in the following cases:
