20 THE MORNING OREGONIAX, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1923 PIERCE'S RECORD ; 111 SENATE TARGET Vote Cast for Rich Instead of Small Home-Owners. HIGHER COSTS ARE AIDED State Senator Vinton Opens Re publican fSpeaklng Campaign t. in Multnomah County. With the charge that Walter- M. Pierce, -democratic candidate for governor, proposed measures as a state senator designed to aid the rich at the expense of the small home owner, W. T. Vinton, state senator, fired the opening gun of the republican speaking campaign in Multnomah county Tuesday night. The address was given before the Albina republican club, John T. Whalley presiding. Senator Vinton pointed out that Mr. Pierce wanted the taxpayers generally to pay for the building of roads instead of the owners of automobiles, and that he tried to exempt from taxation money, notes, credits and accounts. Senator Vin ton drew a parallel between M.". Pierce's legislative record and his present campaign promises. "Senator Pierce weepingly speak3 his white-faced calves, a burden which he, perhaps more than any when a's a state senator he pro posed and voted for large salary increases, for millage taxes and other measures necessitating large expenditures of public funds," sairt Senator Vinton, "and then he in ferentially charges Governor Olcott with the responsibility therefor. This is wholly unfair to Governor Olcott, who, as a matter of fact, had nothing whatever to do with the situation, so far as taxes voted by the people are concerned. Of the nine million in round numbers of state taxes each year practically $6,000,000 was voted by the people and the other three million, which is subject to control of the legis lature, is used for the purpose of operating the state government, con ducting the insane asylum, for the deaf, dumb and blind, and other state institutions. Governor' Becord Lauded. "Governor Olcott has made an ex cellent record. I challenge any man to point to one dishonest act in the whole public life of Ben W. Olcott. Not a breath of scandal has ever attached to his splendid administra tion of state affairs. He has . in sisted always upon a square deal for all citizens, and in his appoint ments to public office has shown a fidelity to the interests of the people that has been remarkable. No gov ernor in the history of Oregon has a better record of appointments and no governor in the history of the state has been more consistent in the appointment of members of his own party to appointive offices. ' In addition to the speech of Sen ator Vinton, which was frequently applauded, State Chairman ' Tooze made a short talk on behalf of the candidacy of Representative Mc Arthur. Mr. Tooze asserted that McArthur was "one man in con gress who had the courage to vote his convictions." The state . chair man pleaded for party loyalty, and particularly for a general return to the rule of the statesman Instead of the rule of the demagogue, dub bing Candidate Pierce and Candi date Watkins as demagogues of the first degree. Mrs. C. B. Simmons, republican nominee for the legislature, in a few remarks placed her cause be fore the people. She made a plea for party loyalty and for greater activity upon the part of the women voters in the political affairs of the state. IT DESCHUTES PROJECT DEVEL OPMENT PROPOSED.

Proposal . to amend the re strictive immigration law to prohibit absolutely admittance to the United States to "those who cannot become citizens of this country, will come from the committee on immigra tion of the house of representatives at the next session of congress, Al bert Johnson, chairman of that com mittee and member of congress from the third AVashington district, aaid in an address here last night. Such an amendment as will be proposed would bar absolutely the immigration of the yellow race. The proposal had been discussed dur ing the last session, Mr. Johnson said after his address, but was not carried out because there was pend ing in the senate at that time the Japanese treaties which since have been adopted both by the United States and by Japan and there was no desire to interfere with these. Under the amendment as it will be proposed, oriental merchants, busi ness men and teachers could come to this country but they could not stay. It also will be added, that t. - ...

CEMENT STILL SCARCE Eugene Users of Material Unable to Get Adequate Supplies. EUGENE. Or., Oct. 18. (Special.)

Hall of the Eugene Cement works, manufacturer of cement products, before the situation is any better.

MOTHERS REQUEST TIME Plea Made tb Keep Quarters Till Funds Are Raised. Officers of the Oregon Congress of Mothers appeared before the county commissioners yesterday to answer the suggestion that they give up the free quarters they have held in-4he courthouse. The women agreed that they had. no claim upon the rooms they occupy that might not tie re. voked, but pleaded that they be al lowed to retain the quarters until ffune 1, 1923. They said their organ ization has no funds at present with which it could rent quarters else where. If given a few months' time, however, they could obtain the funds and arrange to . move out, it was said. The commissioners cited the women to the circuit judges, whose re quests for additional space for juries and reporters brought the sugges tion that the congress of mothera be asked to give up the three rooms they ocupy.

Animal Taken Over by Humane Society and Delivered to ,. Owner Eventually. It was no chastened and repentant monkey that was dragged out from the pantry of Mr; and Mrs. r . Rob erts, 497 West Park street, yester day morning after a night of de struction. For last night when Harry Lewis. 1291 Kelly street, called for "Mike his simian pet roused himself from the stupor in which he had lain all- day at the Oregon Humane society's headquar ters on Columbia boulevard, broke from his master's hands and scam pered off. A two-hour chase through houses, down alleys and over roofs resulted In his capture. "Mike" started out on an hilarious 24-hour spree Tuesday afternoon. when he left his master's house and appeared at the door of the Roberts 1 hm wf P,t tr. wher hl1 home on West Park street, where he was both unknown and unwelcome. Notwithstanding, the beast, which bears a very close resemblance to its human cousins in all but size and clothing, made for the pantry and there established himself. All ef forts of Mrs. Robertts to e.xpel the intruder resulted In showers of jam jars and dishes aimed accurately at her head. No more successful were the at tempts of Mr. Roberts. Fearful of bringing on their household the con tinued wrath of the little fellow, who was in full and undoubted con trol of the pantry, the Robertses locked him i and left him till morning. Yesterday morning "Mike" was roused from a sound sleep atop the highest pantry shelf by three me$ called in to capture him.. Only after an hour's battle did he give in. He was carted off to the humane so ciety's establishment, where ani mals of Cesser degree might stare all day long at his almost human con tour. By nightfall his Ire was up again. Hence the chase. "Mike" will be kept carefully in leash until he shows repentance, said his master. LOGGING MEN. TO MEET Thirteenth Session of Pacific - Congress to Be at Tacoirm.
