PHONE CORPORATION
SEEKS INJUNCTION
New Rates Order Is Said to
Reduce Revenues.
FOUR REQUESTS MADE
Federal Court Asked to Declare
New Tariff Null and Void and
Itcstrain Commission.
An injunction against the order
ot the public service commission
reducing telephone rates, effective
December 1, 1922, was sought in
the United States district court yes
terday in a complaint filed by the
Pacific Telephone & Telegraph
company. The complaint declares
the order of the commission, if en
forced, will result in a reduction
of revenues to the company amount
ing to $200,000.
R. S. Bean, federal judge, is pe
titioned to grant four requests, as.
follows: That the court declare the
order issued Monday reducing rates
null and void; that the commission
be restrained from enforcing the
order; that the commission be re
strained from any action against
the plaintiff if it fails to comply
with the provisions of the new
order; that the plaintiff be entitled
to any other relief found just and
equitable on the trial of the issue
1'oliticstl Expediency Charged.
The telephone company charges
in its suit that the reduction order
of the public service commission
was merely a political expedient.
It further states that the attempted
reduction is confiscatory and that
the returns to the telephone com
pany under present rates are in
adequate. It is declared in the complaint
that 49,000 subscribers to telephone
service in Oregon are affected by
the order and that these will, it
the order stands, seek to collect
payments under the present rate in
excess of the difference that i
caused by the reduction.
The public service commissioners
will have 20 days in which to make
answer to the allegations contained
in the injunction suit.
That the commissioners will wel
come this opportunity is evidenced
by the attitude of engineers and ac
countants, who compiled the data
upon which the rate reduction w
ordered.
Corporation' Charges Hefnted.
In the first place these employes
declare that the new order does
not affect . 49,000 subscribers as
stated by the telephone company,
but only 20,600. Only four-party
and ten-party lines were affected
by the order, is the contention, and
the total number of four-party line
subscribers in Oregon is only 18,800.
The total of ten-party line service
is 1800.
Asked why the commission had
not included two-party lines in the
reduction order, an engineer of the
regulatory body said it was feared
if the order were made too sweep
ing it would reduce the company's
might be able to make a claim of
confiscation that would stand.
"We had to go slow," said this
official, "but we will have plenty
of time to make further reductions
If a complete investigation now
under way shall justify such. By
making the cut rate for four-party
line service we provide an induce
ment for the top-heavy two-party
line service to be changed over.
mere are 26,000 two-party lines
in Portland at present. This Is
more than the combined four and
ten-party line services in the whole
state.
Prraent System Held Antiqnatrd.
"We believe that the rate reduc
tion ordered will be found equit
able" and that the order to abolish
code ringing service and establish
selective service also will be found
reasonable and valid by the court.
Selective service costs a little more,
but it is so great an improvement
that it must redound in the long
run to the benefit of the company,
as well as patrons, in that it will
result In more patronage and corre
sponding increases in revenue.
"By selective service is meant
that a subscriber on a four or ten
party line may be signaled without
any other patron on that line being
disturbed, as is the case under the
present antiquated code ringing
system."

1927 FAIR TAX OPPOSED
Woodburn Grange Goes on Record
Against Exposition Impost.
WOODBURN, Or., Oct. 31. (Spe
cial.) Woodburn grange No. 79, at
its last meeting, adopted unan
imously a resolution opposing the
financing of a 1927 world's fair in
Portland by a real property tax, and
declaring that the exposition should
be financed by the organization of
a stock company with voluntary
subscriptions.
The grangers declared that while
they favored the exposition, they
felt that the farmer was hard hit by
the reaction from war prices for his
products, while the farm overhead
remained at the peak, and that the
farmers should not be assessed for
the fair through a tax on their prop
erty. MR. WOODWARD. REPLIES
All Children of School Director
, Are Primary Graduates.
In reply to a letter from William
J. Sheehy. appealing in The Ore-
gonian, which asked William F.
Woodward, school director and ad
vocate of the compulsory education
bill, certain questions about the
attendance of one of his children
at a 'private educationa-1 institution.
Mr. Woodward said yesterday that
all of his children save one, which
died in infancy, had been graduated
from the elementary schools of the
pubMic school system.
"It is the elementary school sys
tem, as I take it, which is the only
issue in this campaign," eaid Mr.
Woodward.
The school director said that
after completing the elementary
schools two of his daughters at
tended and were graduated from
Jefferson high school. A third
daughter, he said, attended Jeffer-1
son hierh school for two vears. !
while the fourth daughter, on
account of poor health, attended
the Allen preparatory school after
completing the course in the ele
mentary grades in the public school.
FURNITURE TRADE LSI
TACOMA'S INDUSTRY SHOWS
STEADY INCREASE.
Expansion Brings Puget Centei
Into Forefront of Pacific
Coast Manufacturers.
TACOMA, Wash., Oct. 31. (Spe
cial.) The growth and expansion of
Tacoma as a furniture manufactur
ing city and its position of leader
ship among the cities of the coast
in this industry are shown in the
report of wholesale trade conditions
in the 12th federal reserve district,
issue October 20 by John Perrin,
chairman of the board and federal
reserve agent of the federal re
serve bank of San Francisco.
The report shows that in net sales
during September, 3 922, as compared
with September, 1921, Tacoma's fur
niture factories made a gain of 16
per cent.
The large increase shown by the
Tacoma factories in net sales be
cause of the much lower prices in
effect now than those prevailing a
year ago indicates a still greater
increase in volume over the same
month one year ago than the per
centage indicating the increase in
the value of sales.
A still more notable showing is
that made by Tacoma for the first
nine months of the present year
compared with the same period of
1921. The report shows an increase
in net sales for the entire district of
7.3 per cent. San Francisco facto
ries show an increase of 3.9 per
cent, and Portland firms an in
crease of 9.2 per cent, while
Tacoma's furniture factories report
a gain for the same period of 24.7
per cent. Los Angeles factories ex
perienced a loss of .9 per cent.
Tacoma's furniture factories num
ber well over a dozen, several of
which are among the largest in the
west. The products of Tacoma's fur
niture factories are distributed over
the entire area west of the Rocky
mountains and to the Hawaian
islands and Alaska, and have every
where established for themslves a
reputation for quality.
WALNUT CROP GATHERED
Dundee Growers Practically End
Harvest for This Year.
DAYTON, Or., Oct. 31. (Special.)
Walnut harvest in the, big or
chards around Dundee is now prac
tically complete and the growers
are working night and day getting
their crop graded and on the mar
ket. Prices to the producers are
slightly lower this year as com
pared to last. No. 1 seedlings are
bringing 24 cents a pound, No. 2
seedlings and grafts from 22 to 22
cents, and No. 1 grafts are going
at 30 cents.
Charles Trunk & Sons, who hold
the largest acreage owned by any
one grower, harvested approximate
ly ii tons. A larger percentage of
their nuts were more discolored this
year than ordinarily owing to ex
cessive fogs during harvesting time.
The quality, however, is very good.

BURGLARS ENTER BANK
Safe at Cove Resists Effort on
Part of Yeggmen.
LA GRANDE, Or., Oct. 31. (Spe
cial.) An attempt to rob the Cove
State bank last night failed through
the inability of the robbers to open
the safe. After failing to fathom
the combination, they attempted to
pry the safe open, but again failed.
Grover Duffy, cashier, found every
thing in order this morning with
the exception of the combination,
which was jammed, making it nec
essary to drill through the door in
order to open the safe.
The telephone connections with
outside points had been severed and
an automobile would have featured
in the escape. An investigation
failed to disclose any items of im
portance. Contagious Diseases Threaten.
MARSHFIELD, Or., Oct. 31. (Spe
cial.) Coo county's 100 per cent
health system w'U not have clear
sailing, Dr. Irwin is finding, for
there already are a number of con
tagious diseases threatening vari
ous sections of the county, and two
nurses employed by the county and
the Rockefeller foundation have re
signed. Diphtheria, scarlet fever,
meningitis and whooping cough
have been found in isolated in
stances, but there has been no need
of a general quarantine, nor is it
expected. Scarlet fever is most
feared, as there is no ant'toxin for
its prevention.

T
E 15 i JOY
IN PIERCE C
School Bill Makes Trouble
for Democrats.
OLD-TIMERS ARE ANGRY
Candidate's Declaration In Favor
of Measure Causes Open
Desertions From Ranks.
There is no light-hearted merri
ment in the camp of Walter M.
Pierce, democratic candidate for gov
ernor, these days. The democrats
are about as joyful as mourners and
make no attempts at concealment.
The fly in the ointment is the
school bill. It Is no. secret that the
old-time democrats were chagrined
when Pierce issued a statement that
he was for the bill, but they tried to
put the best face on the matter. As
the Pierce commitment to the school
bill became generally known there
were open desertions from the dem
ocratic ranks until it is now esti
mated that about 30 per cent of the
democratic vote is "off" of Pierce
because he tied the school measure
into his campaign. t
, Pierce Does Own Campaigning.
It was largely because of the un
sympathetic attitude of the old-line
democrats that Pierce has had to do
his own campaigning. None "Of the
spellbinders of democracy -cared to
go on the stump and advocate him,
for these, in the main, are opposed
to the school measure.
As though the situation was not
sufficiently awkward, along came
most of the democratic candidates
for the legislature in Multnomah
county and began taking raps at the
school bill, denouncing It without
measure. Democratic legislative
nominees have held a number of
conferences on this subject and they
have agreed to make it their main
issue and base their campaign for
votes by displaying their opposition
to the bill. The condition now pre
sented is the democratic candidate
for governor saying he will vote for
the school bill and the democratic
legislative ticket, with few excep
tions, fighting it.
Pierce Stand Denounced.
On the heels of the gubernatorial
candidate and the legislative ticket
pulling in opposite directions, along
comes Mr. Pierce's principal finan
cial supporter and in display adver
tising in the press of the state he
virtually informs Pierce that honor,
patriotism and freedom demand that
Pierce vote against the bill Instead
of for it; that the measure is hostile
to true Americanism and that the
measure is an appeal to religious
and racial intolerance.
This denouncement of the stand of
Mr. Pierce by his chief contributor
came as a jolt to the Pierce man
agers, who had been trying to forget
Pierce's position on ..the. Dili, iney
simply do not want to discuss, in
public, this latest blow at the Pierce
campaign.
Bill Not Featured In Talks.
Nor is that all. Mr. Pierce pledged
himself to the school bill to prevent
Charles Hall from being an inde
pendent candidate. Mr. Hall with
drew and the forces back of the
bill expected Pierce to feature it
in his speeches. This he has not
done. There is a report that Pierce's
brother Charles has visited minis
ters in Pendleton and told them
that the candidate is not really in
favor of the school bill, and that
he only gave the pledge as a polit
ical expediency. This report is
spreading among the followers of
the yellow ticket and Pierce's sin
cerity is being questioned. In short,
there is a suspicion among some of
the yellow ticket people that Pierce
is double-crossing them.
With a disaffected democratic
party, marked by desertions because
of his pledge, and on the other hand
suspicion that he does not intend
keeping that pledge, the Pierce
campaign is growing more doleful
daily.
ARMISTICE DAY NAMED
Governor Hart Sets Aside No'
vember 11 as Holiday.
OLTMPIA, Wash., Oct. 31. (Spe
cial.) In a proclamation setting
apart November 11 as a legal holi
day in observance of Armistice and

tion of Admission day."
"And when in mid-afternoon

the streets of Centralia, may a rev
erent citizenry bow their heads in
the though: that these lives were
as truly given for liberty and con
stitutional government as though
thiey had fallen in the line of
battle," the proclamation urges
w,tth reference to the Centralia
Armistice day tragedy of 1919.

AT SEA
ASTORIA FISHERMAN .HAS
NARROW 'ESCAPE. .
John Laine Picked Up by Troller
After Own Vessel Has
Been Destroyed.
ASTORIA, Or., Oct. 31. (Special.)
John Laine, a Columbia river
troller, had a thrilling experience a
couple of clays ago when his trolling
launch, the Echo, was burned at sea.
Laine fishes alone, and was
trolling about eight miles at sea off
the mouth of the Columbia river.
While busy with his lines he started
to make coffee on an oil stove In
the cabin at the bow of the boat.
On going to the cabin a few mo
ments later he found the stove had
exploded and the interior of the
cabin was afire. ,
Laine, who" has a crippled right
arm, managed to haul the flaming
mattress from the cabin and throw
it overboard, closed the engine room
doors and then he Jumped into his
skiff, whence he endeavored to
check the fire wilh an - extin
guisher. He could mike little head
way, and the craft, after burning
to the water's edge, went down. In
the meantime Henry Pakanen, an
other troller, saw the fire and
picked Laine up and brought him
to Astoria. Mr. Laine said - his
launch cost $5500 and was partially
covered by insurance.
The man has had a series of mis
fortunes during the past few years.
About three years ago a gasoline
explosion occurred on board his
craft and his face was so badly
burned that he was laid up for some
time.
Last season his craft was prac
tically swamped near the mouth of
the river and he barely escaped with
his life.
August 21, last, while starting his
engine, his right, arm was broken
In five places and is in such a con
dition that he must now go to the
hospital to have the arm rebroken
and properly set before he can have
the proper use of it.

DEFEAT OF 3 MILL
TAX TO BE COSTLY
Fire Insurance Premiums to
Increase $450,000.
RATE RISE THREATENED
City Commissioners Urge Voters
to Approve Measure to Guard
Against Certain Advance.
Figures on the possible increase
of fire insurance rates in Portland,
in the event that the fire bureau
service is reduced through failure
of the voters to approve the spe
cial 3-mill tax, were given out yes
terday by City Commissioner Pier,
in charge of the finance department.
"A conservative estimate of the
total fire insurance premiums paid
in Portland each year is $1,50(LOOO."
said Mr. Pier. "As a matter of
fact this estimate was made by
Harvey Wells, ex-insurance com
missioner, and really is based on
premiums paid in 1915. We know
that the premiums are much greater.
Premiums Increase $450,000.
"But using these figures as a
basis, a 30 per cent increase in
such rates would compel the policy
holders to pay $450,000 a year ad
ditional premiums if the 3-mill tax
is defeated. This is one single
item where more than one-half of
the amount of the entire tax is
covered."
Mr. Pier explained that his fig
ures on this matter relate to the
statement made by James N. Mc
Cune, manager of the Oregqn in
surance rating" bureau, who de
clared that any reduction iin the
fire protection afforded by the city
would be followed by an immediate
increase in insurance rates of from
25 to 30 per cent.
Campaign for Tax Active.
Under the direction of City Com
missioner Mann, the campaign that
is being waged in behalf of the 3
mill tax levy in on full blast. Com
missioner Pier has arranged to
present thfs subject at meetings
every night this week. Commis
sioners Mann and Barbur have been
given speaking assignments and
Commissioner pigelow, who is out
for re-election, also has been re
quired to forget his own campaign
in order to aid in the 3-mill tax
fight.
"Members of the council realize
what defeat of this measure will
mean," said Commissioner Mann,
"and for that reason are doing
everything possible to explain the
measure to the voters. Many per
sons do not realize that this is not
a new "tax, nor an additional bur
den, but twice before has been au
thorized and is resubmitted at this
time to overcome a legal objec
tion." City Manager Opposed. jj
LA GRANDE, Or., Oct. 31 (Spe

sioner has developed an issue in
the person of the present city man
