SMPAIGiy FOR FAIR
TO BE PUSHED
State Committee Solid for
Carrying' Out of Plans.
AFPEAL MADE STRONGER
liaising of Tax to Be Made Con
tingent on $1,000,000 in
Private Subscriptions.
The campaign for the 1925 Exposi
tion amendment to finance the fair
project by authority of the voters,
will gro vigorously forward from to
day, according1 to unanimous deter
mination reached yesterday by mem
bers of the state-wide committee.
This formal action, following the
ruling1 of the supreme court which
upheld the validity of the petitions,
restores the exposition to Its former
status as an enterprise not to be
abandoned.
"Is it understood that we are
poing to carry on?" asked Mayor
Baker of his bellow committeemen.
The affirmative response was in
stant and unmarked by dissent.
"We- shall proceed at once with a
short, snappy and resolute cajnpaign
of education, and are confident that
the exposition measure will carry,"
said th mayor after the conference.
"The campaign budget has been ap
proved and the last delay thruBt
aside. We feel that Oregon is
with, us." -t
Amendment Made Better.
The committee- at its session re
vised the proposed financial amend
ment in an important detail and to
such purpose that the measure .will,
it is believed, be stronger in its ap
peal than before. By this revision
the $3,0K,OO0 bond issue, if author--ized
by the voters, will be contin
gent upon the raising of $1,000,000
. by private subscription. Otherwise
the levy, even if approved, will not
be raised. It was declared that the
subscription campaign, should the
bonds carry, must be concluded be
fore December 20.
The tax commission having charge
of the exposition fund, if voted, will
comprise J. C. Ains worth, Emery
Olmstead, Edward Cookingham, Na
than Strauss and Ira F. Powers.
These are the names which will go
on the charter amendment. A.' Lu
Mills and J. L. Meier, members of
the former commission, having de
clined to serve.
Confidence I Expressed.
Regret was expressed that. Mr.
Meier had decided against partici
pation in the exposition plans, but
each committeeman expressed con
fidence in the project and renewed
determination to continue the cam
paign. It was felt that though
leadership of the exposition in its
final status is not at present ap
parent, an acceptable and energetic
head would be found. Though no
name was mentioned in this con
nection, it is understood that the
committee already has Bolved this
enigma to its own satisfaction.
Franklin T. Griffith, chairman of
the board, will remain in complete
charge until the close of the cam
paign, with Mayor Baker serving aB
director-general of the drive for the
enactment of the amendment.
Present at the meeting of the
state-wide committee were Franklin
T. Griffith, chairman; George L. Ba
ker, vice-chairman; Edward Cook
ingham, Nathan Strauss, Emery
Olmstead, Ira F. Powers, John
Daly. F. E. Taylor. F. E. Beach, C.

tion has been prepared by City At
torney Grant- and will go to the
council for" consideration tomorrow,
This measure wili be voted upon by
the people of the city NovemDer 7
The amendment authorizes the
levy of fl.000,000 a year for three
years, the money to go into what
will be known as the "exposition
fund." A commission, of five mem
bers, to be appointed by the coun
eil, will be authorized to use any
and all of such funds for exposition
purposes.
This commission is given au
thority to "arrange for, conduct and
generally have charge of the rep
resentation and participation of the
city of Portland in an exposition to
be held within the county of Mult
nomah, state of Oregon, in the year
1925, or as soon thereafter as the
same can be arranged and the nec
essary funds provided."
No compensation can be collected
by members of the commission, and
it is provided that they file finan
cial reports with the city auditor at
stated times.
The amendment provides that the
exposition tax shall not be com
puted as a part of the revenue
raised by taxation under the gen
eral statute provisions, but that the
authority to levy such tax must de
pend upon the voters of the state
adopting the constitutional amend
ment authorizing tha city of Port
land to levy and collect this special
tax.
"The authority hereby granted to
expend such exposition fund," the
amendment reads in one part, "Bhall
not be exercised until or unless the
council shall be satisfied, and so de
clare by resolution, that bona ftde,
lawful and collectable subscriptions
have been made by persons, firms
or corporations, other than mu
nicipal corporations, now or here
after organized under the laws of
the state of Oregon, for the purpose
and object of promoting and aiding
said exposition or other lawful and
collectable subscriptions have been
pledged by other agencies, which
stock subscriptions and other sub
scriptions aggregate a sum of not
less than $1,000,000."
LESION DELEGATION 40
PORTLAND TO SEND IiAKGE
. - PARTY TO NEW ORLEANS.
FAIR AVILIi BE ON BALLOT
Supreme Court Allows Tax Meas
ure to Be Voted On.
SALEM, Or., Oct. 2. (Special.)
The so-caned 1925 exposition amend
ment, which authorizes Portland to
levy a tax to raise $3,000,000 to help
defray the cost of the proposed
show, will go on the ballot at the
November election. The 6 per cent
interest rate amendment initiated
by J. F. Albright of Oregon City
will not go before the voters at the
fall election.
This was announced here today
in an oral opinion nanded down by
the state supreme court. A written
. opinion covering the two cases is
now being prepered, but it is not
likely that it will be filed with
the clerk of the court for two weeks.
The court handed down the oral
opinion today to expedite the work
of the secretary of state in certify
ing the names of candidates and
amendments to the county clerks.
The exposition case originated in
the Marion county circuit court
here, but was dismissed by Judge
Percy Kelly when the plaintiffs
refused to make their petition more
certain and definite. Appeal to the
supreme court then was announced
by the plaintiffs. Sam A. Koze
secretary of state, was named a
defendant in the action.
The complaint charged that the
county clerk of Multnomah county
in certifying to the names on the
initiative petitions circulated in
connection with the exposition
amendment failed to compare the
signatures with the original regis
tration cards of the signers. The
defendant alleged that the charge
of Irregularities should have been
made more definite.
In the interest amendment suit
Judge Kelly held for the plaintiff,
and an appeal to the supreme court
followed. The secretary of state
also was named as defendant in this
action. The complaint in this case
charged that, several thousands -of
names on the initiative petitions
had been certified by notaries pub
lice contrary to law. This charge
was upheld by the lower court in
the decree that followed. Plaintiffs
contended that the irregularities
found in the notarial certifications
did not effect the validity of the
amendment because the status of
the signers had not been attacked.
No appeal was taken in the se
called salmon fishing case or the
action brought to invalidate the
graduated income tax measure in
itiated by the state grange, so both
of these measures places on the
balot were denied by the Marion
county circuit court.
As the result of the many irregu
larities found -in the -interest rate
amendment petitions Governor Olcott
recently revoked the commissions
of a half dozen notaries public. All
of the notaries reside in Portland
and appeared as witnesses at the
trial of the action.
It was reported that the supreme
court was not unanimous in the
oral opinion handed down today.
The names of the judges who dis
sented will not be known until the
."jrii'e:i opinions are filed.

Grand Jury Condemns but Men
tions Xo Names of Those Said
' to Have Takei'Evidence."
WASHINGTON, D. C, Oct. Z.r
Charges that "certain representa
tives of the department of justice
converted to their own use large
stocks of liquor seized in the en
forcement of prohibiiton. laws were
made' in a special report filed, today
by the District of Columbia grand
jury.
The report asserted that the
liquor was removed from the ware
house used by the department for
storage purposes ana was usea by
the officials involved for their pri
vate consumption, for distribution
to personal friends and as gifts to
favored institutions.. There was no
charge that any of the liquor was
disposed of for financial sain.
Illegal withdrawals covered in the
report were declared to have oc
curred between July 10 and Septem-
oer 11, 1920. The Jury did not name
the individuals who were involved,
but declared that their conduct
"cannot be too severely condemned."
At the department of justice of
ficials indicated that no action was
prospect since the offenses com
plained of were by "former at
taches of a former administration"
of the department. William J.
Burns, chief of the department's bu
reau of investigation, confirmed
that large stocks of liquor held in
the custody of the department had
disappeared between the dates
mentioned in the grand jury report.
Officials of the department esti
mated that "several hundred cases"
of assorted liquors were removed
illegally from the department's evi
dence cacne. The value was placed
at upward of $100,000 by D. T.
Wright, counsel for Frank Bunch,
cne of the interested- owners. Mr.
Wright recently filed suit against
Frank Burk, ex-chief of the depart
ment of justice's- bureau of investi
gation; P. J. Ahearn and Henry P.
Alden, employes of the department,
charging that they had unlf.wfully
removed his clients liquor from
custody and converted it to their
own use. The suit is now pending
in a local court, according to Mr.
Wright.
Fortune I Involved.
The liquor stocks covered in the
grand jury report were those taken
during the operation of the Reed
bone dry amendment, which pro
hibited sale of alcoholic beverages
within the district during the early
Months of the war and during the
period when purchases in adjacent
territories were still permissible.
The department of justice was made
the enforcing agency and while in
dividuals were permitted to bring
reasonable quantities into the dis
trict for their own use, agents of ;
the department exercised super
"ision over the stream which im
mediately began to flow through
the local railroad station and along
each of the roads entering 'Wash
ington. It is a matter of record, according
to attorneys who were interested in
the legal phases of the situation,
that few convictions resulted from
the seizures of the incoming stocks.
In many cases, however, the defend
ants failed to apply for return of
their property after a case was set
tled, and the stocks in storage grew
to proportions, whicli, at present
day prices, would have represented
a large fortune.
erties in British Columbia, having
a total value of $10,000,000. was
upheld today by the United States
circuit court of appeals here.
In 1915 Bacon entered into a part
nership with R. K. NeilC mining
promoter. Later NeilL in behalf of
the partnership, went to British Co
lumbia to investigate the holdings
in the present action. He returned
with the report to Bacon that they
were practically worthless, whereas
they were of great value, according
to Bacon's complaint. Later, ac
cording to Bacon, Neill developed
the properties and denied him a
proper partnership interest.
Neill's showing was that Bacon
was fully informed of the charac
ter and value of the properties, but
refused to enter into any transac
tion to develop them, although
urged to do so.

Chimes Numbers by H. It. Cooper
and Daughter Lulu Also Win
Favor of Fans.
One of the most unique radio pro
grammes ever broadcast from Port
land was sent out over the air last
night from The Oregonian tower.
The concert was in two parts; the
first a distinct novelty programme
and the second by the Veterans' Kife
and Drum corps, composed of civil
war veterans.
The novelty music was furnished
by L. H. Cooper and his- daughter.
Miss Lulu Cooper, of the Cooper
Musical company, 686 K&st Sixty-
ninth street North, ami -consisted of
six different kinds of music. These
two have in their repertoire 26 dif
ferent kinds of music, some of which
are not suited to radio, but their
versatility was manifest last night
in the assortment offered- the ap
preciative radio audience.
The first number was a chimes
solo played by both the artists, a
medley of old-time songs, and It
went through the ether with force
and clarity. Between that and the
bell solos, Miss Lulu Cooper played
"The Russian Ra-g" as a piano solo.
Mr. Cooper then played two eolos,
one with cow bells and the other
with sleighbells. The astonishing
part of the series was the bottle solo
played by Miss Lulu Cooper. This
was played on a perfected set of
bottle chimes such as small boys try
to make by filling bottles of dif
ferent sizeswith water to make a
scale. As the solo was1 broadcast
by radio it sounded very similar to
a xylophone. The concluding num
ber of the Cooper programme was a
saxophone solo by Mr. Cooper, and
as an extra the bottle solo was re
peated by request.
Music reminiscent or civil war
days consisting of five different old
time tunes was played by the Vet
erans Fife and Drum corps. There
are four fifes afd four drums In the
corps and the members are Grant,
Kellogg, Brooks, Vaughn. McCJeuan,
Confair, Butler and Jones, civil war
veterans from New York, Wisconsin,
Ohio, Iowa and Illinois.
While the drums were a little bit
strong for broadcasting the martial
music of the fifes could be heard dis
tinctly and the music brought many
calls of appreciation. The numbers
played by the corps were: "Dixie,"
St. Patrick s Day m tne iworning,
Lassie March," "Arkansas Traveler"
and "Turkey in the Straw."

Ex-American Doesn't Reveal
Much Happiness Over Fi
nally Gaining Admittance.
NEW YORK. Oct. 2. (By the As
sociated Press.) Isadora Duncan
and her exuberant young poet-husband.
Serge Yessenin. were permit
ted to land in the United States to
day after the department of justice
had detained them 24 hours to learn
whether the dancer, who arrived
from Moscow yesterday, was a cour
ier for the Russian soviet govern
ment. Isadora was in a bad humor to
night and she didn't reveal much
happiness over finally being allowed
to enter this country.
"They held me because I came
from Moscow," she said. "What did
they ask me? -Oh, they wanted to
know if I was a classical dancer. I
told them I didn't know, because my
dancing is personal. They wanted
to know what I looked like when I
dance. How did I know? I never
saw myself dance."
It was officially stated that,
broadly speaking, the department
of justice detained the dancer be
cause of her long residence in Rus
sia and gossip that connected her
with the soviet government, and be
cause it was suspected that she
might be a courier for the soviet
on her ostensible dancing tour of
this country. x
It was a fretful day for Isadora.
She was kept so busy and nagged
so much, she complained, that sue
didn't have a bit of nourishment
all day except one cup of coffee at
breakfast time. First, she said, Im
migration' authorities hauled her
around the pier and bothered her
with questions about her luggage.
Then she was rushed to Ellis island
with her husband and the inquiry
consumed most of the afternoon.
Her New York lawyer. Nathan S.
Goldberger, and her American man
ager, S. Hunok, wo-ked all day in
ignorance. They complained that
no one would tell them what charge.
if any, had been filed against the
-dancer. They loafed around the
Ellis island corridors all afternoon,
watching the immigrants, the spar
rows on the lawn and the statue of
liberty.
After a long wait Isadora and
her smiling young husband, who is
ten years her junior, walked out
of the inquiry chambers and spread
the good news. Isadora was petu
lant and hungry. The roses she
carried were drooping and dying
and her bobbed henna locks needed
brushing. On her feet were bizarre
Russian boots and her gown.
trimmed with white lamb's wool,
was a stunning thing of black and
red and gray stripes over an orange
bodice.
Isadora Has Little to Kay,
She had very little to say, but
young faerge, who looks quite like
an American and much less than
his 28 years, was laughing and chat
ting and having lots of fun swap
ping some of his knowledge of
French and Russian for American
slang.
They sat on the upper deck of
the Ellis island ferry Isadora and
Serge on the way back to Manhat
tan and their hotel. Isadora gave
one bored glance at the famous sky
line, softened by the haze of twi
light, and turned her head. But
Serge gave it his attention. He
said it was great, the most beauti
ful city he had ever seen. He even
threatened to write a poem about
it.
Labor department officials ex
plained today that Isadora Duncan,
Russian dancer; Serge Yessenin, her
Russian poet-husband, and other
members of her party were not al
lowed to land upon arriving at New
York yesterday because of immigra
tion regulations providing that all
aliens must appear before an immi
gration board of review prior to ad
mission and because this board does
not hold sessions on Sunday.
'Officials continued to assert that
no orders were issued from Wash
ington with respect to Miss Duncan,
and Secretary Davis asserted that
the department had not been ad
vised of the sailing of the dancer
to the United States.

tend the work- beyond all reason
snd on that account the board will
receive representations as to par
ticular yards or stations in wrlt'na
cnly.
Secretary Denby said that in ex
ceptional cases and to deal with
particular points upon which the
board required more Information
than was now available within the
department, witnesses might be
called. He Indicated that he did not
anticipate many such cases.
At Its initial meeting- the board
considered the various phases of the
comprehensive study it plans to
make and board members par
ticularly qualified will begin at
once preparing special reports for
the entire board on the subject com
mitted to them for review.
As the membership of the board,
which is headed by Hear-Admlral
Hugh Rodman, includes line officers
of wide experience, both with the
ships and in the department, con
structors, civil engineers and all the
other technical bureaus of the de
partment, it is expected that a com-'
rrehenwlve study of the shore estab
lishment problem, accompanied I"
recoramennat'ons for the builiitna- of
some new statiors and the abandon,
ment and sale of some old yards
m ill result. Probably two or three
nonths will be required to complcta
liie work.
