Opinion of Experts.
REGISTRY OFFICE IS AIM
tMiysIcal Education, Tuberculosis
and Factory Degeneration Are
Topics Considered at Con
ference In Michigan.
BATTLE CREEK. Mich.. Jan. 10. A
Wide variety of subjects, embracing
euthenlcs and Its founder, the effect
of alcohol on the race and the function
of the dentist in race betterment, took
up tonight's session of the National
conference on race betterment. The
day session was taken up with the
discussion of an eugenics registry of
fice for the purpose of developing hu
man thoroughbreds, the relation of
physical education to physical better
ment, the tuberculosis problem, factory
degeneration and other subjects.
"Euthenics is the name proposed for
the preliminary science on which eu
genics must be based," Mrs. Melvin
Dewey, of Lake Placid, N. T., said. "No
state can thrive when its citizens waste
their resources of bodily health, time
and brain power, more than can a na
tion prosper that wastes its national re
sources. Perfection of Body Needed.
"If the scientifically trained man is
to lead the world to better things, he
must secure a suitable environment; he
must seek the perfection of the body as
a machine. . But however far the sci
ence of eugenics may carry
the race- toward perfection, un
less its sister science, euthenics,
goes hand in hand, the race will again
deteriorate in the future as surely as
It has In the past. Accepted together as
guiding principles in the evolution of
life, man may yet -build for himself a
temple worthy of an unconquerable
soul."
According to Arthur Hunter, of New
York, laboratory experiments do not
represent the danger of alcohol as seri
ously as it exists in every-day life.
"This is because they do not prop
erly allow for the increasing need and
desire for alcohol, and for Its taking
the place very largely of solid food
among excessive users," he said.
Mr. Hunter referred to life insurance
. statistics as an example of the injurious
effects of alcohol.
Drinkers Die Early.
"It has been shown," he said, "that
life insurance companies have experi
enced about 60 per cent extra mortality
among men who drank to excess five
years or more prior to the date of ap
plication, although they were temper
ate after that time. Even among those
who had taken a cure for alcoholic
habits and had been total abstainers
from that time to the date of applica
tion for Insurance the mortality rate
was about one-third higher than nor
mal." Henry Smith Williams, of New York,
said that restriction and final elimina
tion of the use of alcoholic drinks is a
vital factor in eugenics.
The disastrous results of defective
teeth were taken up in detail by Dr. C.
J. Johnson, of Chicago.
Among the speakers at today's ses
sion were Dr. J. H. Kellogg; of Battle
Creek; Dr. D. A. Sargent, of Harvard
T'nlversity; Dr. S. Adolphus Knopf, of
New York; Rev. Newell Dwight Hillis.
of Brooklyn; William Hastings, of
this city, and Dr. J. N. Hurty, of the
Indiana State Board of Health.
MAIL DELAY IS STOPPED
Dutiable Matter Ordered Sent Direct
to Portland Orrice.
Postmaster Myers was notified yes
terday by Postmaster-General Burleson
that an order had been Issued that all
dutiable foreign mail received at Se
attle and San Francisco for Portland
shall be forwarded here as soon as re
ceived. It has been the practice to retain this
mail at Seattle and San Francisco un
til the duties were collected here and
forwarded to the customs house either
at Seattle or San Francisco.
"This, of course, delayed the mail
several days and deprived the Portland
Custom-House of Its just revenue." said
Postmaster Myers yesterday. "I pro
tested to the PostmasterTGeneral. The
amount was not great.' It was the
principle for which I was contending."
MASONS -ATTEND BANQUET

Willamette Lodge. No. 2, of Masons,
entering the 64th year of its existence,

LOST PURSE NOT EMPTIED
Bag, Apparently Ransacked, Con
tains $30 When Police Recover It.
A purse containing $38, left on a
restaurant table by Miss- Lilly White,
of 621 Beck building, was returned to
her by the police yesterday, after It
apparently had been thrown in a motor
truck, when it was believed by the per
son who took it that all the money It
contained had been removed.
The purse was found by Gustav
Teufel. a nurseryman on the Barnes
road. Teufel turned the bag over to
i'atroiman stark for safe keeping.
At the bottom of the bag $30 in gold,
overlooked, was found and returned to
Miss White.
EAR REMEDY IS SHOWN
Treatment for Deafness Demon
strated to Osteopaths.
The feature of the midyear meeting
of the Oregon Osteopathic Association
at the Hotel Oregon yesterday was
the first demonstration on the Coast
of a new treatment for partial deafness,
me discovery of Dr. E. Edwards, of St
Louis, Mo. The demonstration was
made by Drs. D. D. Young, of McMinn
ville. and Tracy Parker, of Portland.
It showed the results that can be ob
tained by manually cleaning out the
opening of the eustachian tube as It
enters the cavity of the pharynx.
The contention Is that colds and
other ailments block the tube, causing
more or less deafness. Dr. Parker
said that thousands of cases had been
treated successfully by this simple op
eration in St. Louis. The method was
discovered by Dr. Edwards about a
year ago, and Drs. Young and Parker
attended the convention at Kirksvllle,
Mo., Last Summer and saw Dr. Ed
wards' demonstration.
The demonstration by Drs. Young
and Parker followed the reading of
papers on "Influenza," by Dr. A. P.
Howells, of Albany, and Dr. D. J.
Fasching, of McMinnville. Other papers
read were on "Ovaritis." Olive C. Wal
ler. Eugene, and Lillian Baker, Port
land; "Sciatica." B. P. Shepherd. Port
land, and Pauline Sears, Vale; "Ex
opthalmic Goitre," Gertrude L. Gates.
Portland; J. G. Hurst, Eugene, and
Mary M. Marshall, Albany; "Original
Research In Osteopathic Treatment of
Disease of the Gall Bladder," Agnes
M. Brown. Portland; "Asthma." Kath
ryn Reuter, Portland.
The association voted to support Dr.
J. A. Van Brakle, of Oregon City, in
the action brought by the State Board
of Health to oust him from the (posi
tion of health officer of Clackamas
County. The State Board has taken
the stand that the appointment of .n
osteopath as health officer is illegal.
The association received pledges of
J600 from its members toward the en
dowment fund for the A. T. Still re
search institute of Chicago.
GARFIELD IS CANDIDATE
OHIO REPUBLICANS HAIL. NEWS
WITH GREAT GLEE.
Man Whom Tart Refused to Have la
Cabinet Regarded aa Particu
larly Easy to Beat.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Jan. 10. The Bull Moose of
Ohio, comforted by the flowery words
of encouragement of ex-Senator Bev
eridge, of Indiana, have decided to
place a full ticket in the field this Fall,
and apparently they intend to nomi
nate ex-Secretary of the Interior Gar
field as their candidate for Governor.
This announcement is received with
great glee by Ohio Republicans in Con
gress, for they ay there is no man
in the Bull Mooes party In Ohio who
will be easier to snow under than this
same Garfield.
If Ohio Republicans can be believed.
Garfield is about as popular In Ohio
as he is In the public land states of
the West, but for different reasons. In
Ohio Garfield is little known, except
as a latter-day orator, and he attained
that distinction only after President
Taft refused to have him in his Cabi
net. Aside from being the son of an
ex-President, Garfield had np claim to
distinction until President Roosevelt
made him Commissioner of Corpora
tions and later Secretary of the In
terior. Ohio now has the primary system,
and its candidates for Governor this
year will be chosen at the primaries.
It is commonly understood that Gar
field will be unopposed for the Bull
Moose nomination and that he will be
nominated. After nomination he must
face his Ohio record, and well informed
men predict that he will be the worst
defeated candidate who ever ran for
Governor in Ohio. Garfield expects his
old friend, the Colonel, to help him out,
but even so. it Is said the Colonel faces
a tremendous task.
VETERANS PLAN FOR SHOW
Work of Head Hunters of Philip
pines Will Be Featured.
The local camp of Spanish War Vet
erans has each year for the past six
years conducted a benefit performance,
the proceeds of which are used to
conduct the relief work which the camp
is caueu upon to conauct.
The programme announced for this
year promises to surpass anything
presented in tno past.
Arrangements have been made with
the Orpheum management whereby the
veterans take over the house on the
nights of Tuesday and Wednesday,
February 10 and 11, and in addition
to the regular vaudeville programme
the Spanish War Veterans will present
"The Serpent." a military drama in
one act, representing the capture of an
American soldier by the Igorrotes. or
Head Hunters, of the Philippine
Islands, showing the manner in which
their victims were tortured. In this
act the famous water cure will be used,
this being the first time it has been
presented on the American stage.
ne newly organized drum corps,
comprising sons of Spanish War Vet
erans, will also appear.
TIDE SUBMERGES VILLAGE
Gale Backs Water Over Town Until
Only Roofs Are Visible. '
KOESLIN. Germany, Jan. 10. A high
tide submerged the village of Dam-
kerolt, on the borders ot Buckow
Lake, adjoining the Baltic Sea, last
night and the fate of its -100 inhabi
tants is unknown.
A heavy gale is blowing inshore and
the waters have reached such an ex
traordinary height that only three
roots or houses in the village are visi
ble today.
Troops have been sent from here to
assist in the work of rescue.

er, today, said that his wife, who is
Mme. Lillian Nordica, the singer, was
gravely ill on Thursday Island, Aus

SPEEDY ACTION ON
TRUSTS IS URGED
Returning Members of Con
gress Say Country Is Im
patient for Results.
SENATORS OPPOSE HASTE
At Informal Conference Members of
House Are. Told Subject Is so
Bis It Should Receive
Careful Attention.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. Not all
Democrats in Congress are agreed as
to how tho work of framing anti-trust
legislation to supplement the Sherman
law shall proceed, and there are pros
pects of a noteworthy discussion of
the subject in both Houses of Con
gress. There were informal conferences to
day between individual members of the
House committee 0:1 ludlciary and some
of the Democratic Senators, who in
dicated they were averse to hastening
the anti-trust legislative programme.
These Senators told the House mem
bers they believed eo great a question
should be handled slowly, and that,
while the party platform pledges re
garding interlocking directorates and
other matters should be carried out,
legislation should be framed with the
utmost care to avoid injustice and In
jurious results.
(liiiclc Action Demanded.
Some of the rank and file of the
House membership who are drifting
back into Washington contend, how
ever, that there is a great demand for
immediate anti-trust legislation and
that bills should be enacted into law
as quickly as possible. Representative
Henry, of Texas, chairman of the rules
committee, who has been active in
conference on trust matters, expressed
satisfaction with the programme of
the Judiciary committee majority.
Representative Webb, of North Caro
lina, a member of the Judiciary com
mittee, will Introduce a separate bill.
designed generally to strengthen the
Sherman law along a number of lines,
while Representative Carlin, of Vir
ginia, chairman of the judiciary sub
committee on trusts, has possession
of three tentative bills of interlocking
directorates, trade relations, prices, in
junctions, damages and allied matters.
These measures may be changed ma
terially after they have been submit
ted to the full Democratic membership
of the Judiciary committee and to the
President.
Draft to Walt (or Wilson.
The committee will meet on Tuesday,
and the tentative bills, with the pos
slble exception of Representative Mc
Coy's draft of an inhibition on inter
locking directorates in banks and trust
companies, will not be Introduced on
Monday, but will be taken up In con
ference with President Wilson after he
returns from the South.
Whether there will be a separate bill
defining monopolies and trusts so as to
meet the existence of so-called "de
batable ground" in the enforcement of
the Sherman law rests with the Presi
dent. DEPUTIES ARE CLEARED

RANDLE, Wash.. Jan. 10. (Special.)
This week a meeting was held of the
Citizens' League of Eastern Lewis
County, representatives being present
from Morton, Glenoma, Handle and

was that of good roads and how best
to secure them. Five thousand dollars
was pledged by District 24, with which
to connect and make passable the road
between Morton and state road No. 5
at Glenoma.
Also at this meeting strong resolu

be taken to have the Northern Pacific
either patent its lands in Eastern Lewis

ent status works a great hardship and
injustice on the settlers. The home

WAR ON GANGSTERS
As Means to End, Mayor Re
scinds Gaynor's Order For
bidding Weapons.
LEADERS ARE ROUNDED UP
New York Determined to End Condi
tion Under "Which Thieves, Mur-
dercrs and Drag Habitues
Terrorize People.
NEW YORK, Jan. 10. Mayor Mltchel
declared war today on the organized
gangs of the city and caused emphatic
orders to be given the police that these
gangs of drug habitues, murderers and
thieves must be broken up.
As a means to the end. the order is
sued by Mayor Gaynor, which had been
construed by the Dollce to forbid the
uniformed force to use their clubs or
revolvers in combating the gangsters,
has been rescinded by consent.
The killing last ntgfit of Frederick
Straus, a prominent German citizen, by
bullets that flew in a street light be
tween rival East Side gangs, prompted
the Mayor's action. After he had made
his position plain Police Commissioner
McKay started the crusade by ordering
a roundup of gang leaders. A score
or more had been brought to police
headquarters by nightfall and. the
scouts of the department continued to
scour the haunts of the underworld in
their search for others.
New Element Menacing;.
Gang outrages, gang fights and gang
killings have been frequent In the last
few years and the police have laid
their inability to cope with the evil to
the anti-clubbing orders In force. Po
lice officials recall that the old-time
New York gang used its' fists for the
lost part in its fights and under for
Jier conditions control of it was a com
paratively simple matter. With the
introduction in later years of a, new
foreign element, however, the knife and
the revolver came generally into play
ana tne menace of gang operations and
Influence became formidable.
The gangs of years- ago had their
good points, -it was said, but np such
claim has been set up for the modern
bands of thugs who ' infest various
quarters of the city, particularly the
thickly populated East Side. The lat

Police Held Too Tolerant.
In announcing his Intention to break
up the gangs they . have developed
along the lines Indicated. " Mayor
Mitchel issued a statement explaining
the situation.
"We cannot expect to stop these
gang outrages the first week of the
administration. but they must be
stopped," he said. "I am not at all
satisfied with the manner in which the
police have handled this question. They
have been, it appears, too tolerant of
the existence of organized gangs and
gangsters in this city. They may have
been handicapped by the Idea that Is
abroad that the police may not use
their clubs in dealings with gangs.
"I shall see that the police are given
adequate powers and shall then hold
them to strict responsibility to put an
end to all this. We mean to look fully
into conditions which tend to develop
these gangs. Everyone knows that
much has been done in the last few
years by way of recreational facilities,
athletics and the influence of the
schools to minimize this evil. We must
