THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLAND. JANUARY 26,. 1913. STATE UTS VISIT C0RYALLI5 Agricultural College Is Rendez vous for Retail Men After Albany Meeting. MUCH LEGISLATION ASKED Plan Approved to Divert Cash Re ceived From Auto U censes From General Fund to Counties Whose Besidents Par Fees. " ALBAXT, Or.. Jan. 25. (Special.) Enthusiastic over the success of their seventh annual convention held here this week and loud In their praise of the splendid entertainment afforded them in Albany, members of the Oregon Retail Merchants' Association left yes terday on a special excursion to Cor vallis to visit the Oregon Agricultural College. The 400 delegates were especially pleased with the splendid banquet ten dered them by the Albany Retail Merchants- Association. Four hundred and fifty men sat down at this banquet. which was served in the Albany Armory and which was one of the best ban quets ever served In this city. A large number of prominent Albany young women served as the waitresses at the banquet and received an ovation from the guests at the banquet. Gale S. Hill, of Albany, presided as toastmaster and toasts were responded to by C. C. Colt, president of the Union ' Meat Company, of Portland: W. J. Kerr, president of the Oregon Agricultural College, of Corvallis; F. H. Shull, mana ger of the Portland Flouring Mills Company, of Portland; Albert G. Clark, of Portland, ex-president of the Port land Ad Club: Rev. Father Arthur Lane, of Albany; J. L. Stockton, of Salem, president of the Oregon Retail Mer chants' Association; Max Buren, of fca- lem, and H. M. Crooks, president of Albany College. Banquet Monte Enjoyed. Music at the banquet was furnished by Wilson's Orchestra, of Albany, and interspersed with the toasts were songs by the quartet of the University of Oregon Glee Club and solos by Mrs. Adna Smith Flo and Ray Cleaver, of Albany. During the banquet the Salem delegates to the convention sang several songs composed especially for the occasion. The members of the Albany Retail Merchants' Association were highly complimented by the visiting delegates upon the successful manner in which the convention was entertained. The local association was organized only a few weeks ago and that It accom plished so much was a subject for fre quent congratulation at the hands of the visitors. F. J. Fletcher, president of the Albany Association, took a lead ing part in the preparations for the convention and the general committee on arrangements which handled the plans for the entertainment of the visitors and the big banquet consisted of G. T. Hockensmlth. chairman; Charles E. Scott, U E. Hamilton, Wil liam Kaa-lea and F. H. Pfeiffer. As a result of the action taken at the convention the Legislature will be asked to enact some new laws of con siderable importance. Steps were taken by the officers of the association before they left this city yesterday to present the Ideas of the convention, as expressed In various resolutions, to the Legislature at Its present session in the hope that the laws desired may be enacted soon. Auto Tax Question Fixed. The most Important legislation recommended by the convention was to divert the money received from auto mobile licenses from the general fund of the state into the road funds of the counties whose residents paid the license. The money could thus be ex pended directly upon the roads trav ersed by the automobiles paying the tax. The prevention of the use of .trading stamps by merchants was another ques tion on which the convention desires legislation. This question was dis cussed generally at the convention and opinion among the delegates seemed to be overwhelmingly against the prac tice of using trading stamps. The opinion was expressed, however, that a law to prevent their use would be unconstitutional so, since they could not prevent their use by legislation, the members of the association re quested a law providing a license for their use. Such a law, the delegates believed, will curb their use materially and may result in abolishing them alto gether. The convention went on record In various ways as being in favor of ad vertising, but the delegates In all their discussions urged honesty In advertis ing. A resolution was adopted urging the enactment of a law to prevent a merchant from misleading customers by marking out a fictitious price on any article and remarking a selling price, giving the Inference that the price had been reduced materially when such was not the case. The resolution adopted by the association on this mat ter urges that the present law on fraud ulent advertising be amended so as "to make it unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to offer for sale by any method any merchandise carrying com parative valuations for the purpose of making a sale, unless the price stated as the original price shall have been in force for a period of at least 90 days prior to the offer of sale at the reduc tion." Honeaty la deeded. This resolution Is regarded by many of the delegates as the most important passed at the convention, and the enact ment of the proposed law would, it is said, do more than any other one thing to establish honesty In advertis ing, and would also. It Is claimed, revo lutionize the business methods of some establishments. The association also recommended that a law be passed requiring that all collection agencies shall be bonded in the sum of $5000. One of the other important resolu tions adopted by the convention favors an appropriation by the Legislature to assist the State Board of Immigration Commissioners In its work. This reso lution reads as follows: "Whereas. It Is apparent that the greatest need of Oregon at the present time is more people to till the soil and help develop the vast acres of rich vir gin lands. In our state: and "Whereas. In order to do this most effectively and for the greatest good of the state, it is necessary to have the class of immigrants who will clear the lands and develop same in a manner that la' seldom done by our native farmers and their sons; therefore, be it "Resolved, That the Oregon Retail Merchants' Association, In annual con vention assembled, approve the worlt being done by the State Board of Im migration, and further urge that body to pursue every legitimate step to bring In more of the class of desirable foreign Immigrants who are fitted to perform this work of development. Also, that we urge the Oregon Legis lature to appropriate a suitable amount of money to enable our State Immigra tion Board to conduct an information bureau, for the encouragement of the most desirable immigrants from the Irish, Scandinavian and German speak ing people in Europe; be it further "Resolved, That the Secretary of the State Retail Merchants' Association be Instructed to send a copy of these reso lutions to the members of both houses of the Oregon Legislature now In ses sion." How I.a Grande Got Convention. Back of the selection of La Grande as the place for holding the next con vention of the association is a story of how a score of business men of that city, determined to secure the convention for the Union County me tropolis, made two long trips to gain It and succeeded on the second at tempt, after an Albany business man had taken the honor almost out of their grasp last year and broke all precedent in doing it. The association met last year at Medford and despite the fact that they had to cross the state for both its length and breadth to attend the con- FCXERAL OF LATE OREGOS J CITr RESIDENT TO BE HELD TODAY.

Templeton, all of this city. vention, twenty .men from that city made the trip to secure the 1913 con vention for their city. Their enthus iasm won a great deal of praise, but when it came time to choose the cen- ventlon city, F. J. Fletcher, who was one of three Albany men to attend the convention, mounted the plat."rm and with a big "hub," Albany's official emblem, in bis hand, pointed out Al bany's advantages as a convention city so eloquently that the delegates voted to come here. Fletcher broke all precedent in se curing the convention for Albany, be cause of the fact that this city nad no local association of retail merchants at that time and never except in this instance has the association ever voted to go to a city which lid not maintain a local association. Albany now has one of the most active local associations in the state, however. Undaunted by their defeat, the La Grande business men chartered a. Piiil- n:an car and came to the Albany con vention this week 20 strong. They re newed their campaign for the conven tion and won out. Pendleton was La Grande's only opponent. R. Alexander. the pioneer Pendleton merchant, pre sented the claims of the Umatilla County city to the convention and con siderable humorous repartee he t ween the Pendleton man and Walter M. Pierce, of Hot Lake, and Dan Kella- her, of Portland, speaking for La Grande, was enjoyed. Seeing just be- fore the vote was to be taken that the perseverance of the La Grande business men was to be rewar ii l be yound doubt, Alexander withdrew the name of Pendleton and tha Union County city was chosen as the 3 911 convention site unanimously..

(Special.) One hundred and thirty business men of the state, who have been attending the seventh annual convention of the Ore gon 'Retail Merchants Association at Albany this week, came to Corvallis Friday morning on a special train to visit the college.

Third and TamhllL Proposed Law Finds Favor at An nual Meeting, but by Vote of 54 to 23 Loses Indorsement; Nom ination of Officers Made. SALEM, Or., Jan. 25. (Special.) The State Federation of Labor con- riurfori ft Annual session yesterday afternoon, after a four days- discussion nf th. nrnhiema before organized labor. The matter which brought out the liveliest discussion and producea ine widest divergence of opinion was the employes' compensation act, now be fore the Legislature. By a vote of 54 to 23 the convention repudiated the bill, and by a vote of 43 to 28 passed a resolution severely conaemning xvep resantatiVB A. W. Lawrence, of Mult nomah County, Tor introducing the measure before having consulted wnn the labor forces. This is the bill which was drawn by a composite committee representing both employers and the labor people, ana Mr. Lawrence s atiiuu is especially objected to because of his membership In the roriiana xirvv e-raDhlcal Union. These resolutions precipitated a brisk fight in the convention, and it developed that the proposed liability law had a large proportion of friends in the meeting. Its consideration con sumed the whole of today's session. Doubtful Construction Feared. The principal arguments used by the opponents of the bill, aside from its doubtful constitutionality, are the claims that some parts, particularly section 15, are ambiguous, and that room is left for doubtful constructions bv the eourts. Another objection fre quently brought up Is that there is a possibility that it may leave room for the revival of the old fellow servant and assumed risk doctrines. Althougn there was a -wide divergence of opin ion manifest in the fight, the delegates all say that they will stand together and fight unitedly to nave ine meaa ure thrown out. James F. Cassldy, and E. J. Stack, secretary of the federation, will be in charge of the fight at the Capitol. They will also do all possible to secure en actment of the eight-hour law and the widows' pension bill. In lieu of the rejected bill, the fed eration decided to frame Its own meas ure, and have it ready for introduction at the next legislative session or Ini tiate it at the general election in 1914. The committee named to. draft the measure is as follows: P. R. poiiock, of Portland, representing the plumbers; James Cassldy, ironworkers; Everett Logan, carpenters; John Murphy, long shoremen; F. A. Glfford, electrical line men: O. R. Hartwlg, painters; E. J. Stack, cigarmakers; A. Burns, iron molders; George Vollum, bartenders; Lon De Tarmond, typographical union; R, S. Rayner, machinists; C. M. Ander son, Salem typographical union; J. H. Frossard. trainmen. dominations Are Made.

The Federation reaffirmed its for mer stand for laws providing free text books in the public school, and will take steps toward the Introduction of a bill to this effect. Senate bill 77, Introduced by Malarkey, was strongly Indorsed. This measure provides for protecting the lives, health and morals of women and cniiaren employed in various occupations. The convention also indorsed House bill 151. by Olson, with the understand ing that certain amendments be of fered. This bill provides for the bet ter regulation of school districts hav ing 10,000 or more children. The amend ments advocated by the Federation were to the effect that property quali fications for voters at school elections should be abolished, and that such elections be held not at separate times but in onjunction with the regular state ejections. A bill - making' defal cation In public office not a misde meanor but a felony also was indorsed. The made-ln-Oregon movement was given a boost by a strong resolution supporting the use of home-made ar ticles. MISSING MAN FOUND DEAD Carl Hodes Thought to Slave Com mitted Snicide Xear Oregon City.
