In all departmeata of the debate.
Reed College made a brilliant entry
Into Intercollegiate debating circles in
the Northwest Friday night by defeat
ing the team from the University of
Washington before a crowa or 4uu in
the college chapel. The issue was the
proposed adoption of a minimum wage
law for men in the States of Oregon and
Washington. In the local deDate the
Reed College team, consisting of Lowell
Bradford and Arthur Hauck. bad the
affirmative, while the negative team
from the University of Washington,
composed of Louis Scbwellenbach and
Ray Greenwood, opposed the adoption
of such a law. The affirmative team
was given the decision by a unanimous
vote.
The judges were Judge W. B. Gilbert,
of the Federal Court; Dr. George Rebec,
of the University of Oregon, and F. D.
Morrison, editorial writer of the Tele
gram. Judge John H. Stevenson, of
the Municipal Court, presided.
Creation of Board Favored,
Lowell Bradford opened the debate for
Reed College and defined the issues.
The Reed debaters suggested the crea
tion of a board to fix the minimum
wage and enforce the provisions of
the proposed law. The commission
would have power to meet the chang
ing conditions of labor, capital and the
cost of living. The plan was proposed
to lessen extreme poverty and to insure
a higher degree of efficiency among
employes. The affirmative debaters
made one condition as to the provi
sions of the proposed law and this was
to the effect that the minimum wage
was not to be lower than that given
by experts throughout the country as
the lowest reasonable figure. This was
aet at 600 per year.
The affirmative, in giving a histori
cal sketch of the question, showed that
the minimum wage for women had been
adopted by nine states, including Ore
gon and Washington, and that it had
been adopted for both men and women
In the states in Australia and New
Zealand. It was also in force in Eng
land for five of the greater industries.
The economic principle upon which the
adoption of a minimum wage law was
favored .was that every industry must
pay its own costs, including the pay
necessary to keep its employes In a
condition where they could work effi
ciently. Statistics were produced to
show that about 8000 men in the two
' states would be benefited by a mini
mum wage based on the 1600 scale.
Mr. Bradford pointed out that other
forms of proposed labor legislation
were not aimed at the evils produced
by low wages.
Proposal Called Radical.
Louis Schwellenbach was the first
negative speaker, and contended that
the mjnimum wage law was radical
legislation; that it did not strike at
the fundamental problem in labor con
ditions; that it would be ineffective
and therefore was worse than no legis
lation at all.
He quoted statistics to show that
only one per cent of the laborers in
Oregon and Washington would be af
fected by the law and that the average
for unskilled labor In these two states
was higher than the average for skilled
and unskilled in the Eastern States.
He contended that the minimum wage
law was unnecessary and that the real
problem was the problem of the unem
ployed. The number of the unemployed,
he said, reached 23 per cent of all la
borers in the two states at some time
during the year.
Arthur Hauck was the second Reed
speaker, and pointed out in the begin
ning that no one supposed that the
adoption of a minimum wage would
solve the question of unemployment. He
did present evidence to show that un
employment had not been increased i
where the minimum wage had been
Adopted and that en account of the in
creased efficiency of employes the cost
of production in the industries affect
ed was not increased materially. A
minimum wage was declared to be
necessary because the employer had
the advantage in bargaining for labor
and the law was proposed as a protec
tion for men who were not in a position
to protect themselves.
Lobs of Jobs Feared.
The labor unions, he said, bad solved
this question for only one-seventh of
the men In the two states. Expert tes
timony was produced to show that the
only result of the minimum wage,
where it had been tried was to produce
efficiency.
Ray Greenwood closed the construc
tive speeches for the negative and con
tended that, whereas the minimum
wage would not Increase employment,
it would, on account of the necessary
increased standards for laborers, force
.vome laborers out of employment. He
also suggested that If a state had a
minimum wase law it would attract
laborers who were willing to risk get
ting a Job at all in the hope of getting
one that would pay good wages.
No new evidence was produced in the
rebuttal speeches and they were de
voted mainly to repetitions of the pre
vious contentions, and each side in
sisted on its own definition of the Is
sues. VIOLATIONS NOT SHOWN
Illegal Increase or Prices of Wheat
to Be Punished.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 16. Prompt
prosecutions will follow the discovery
of any evidences of illegal .combina
tions back of the recent marked in
crease in the cost of wheat and flour,
Attorney-General Gregory said tonight.
Mr. Gregory said that the Federal
investigation into the flour and wheat
situation being carried on In Chicago
was In accordance with the genera
Instructions from the Department of
Justice. Up to the present, however, he
had received no information that illegal
practices had been resorted to.
The suggestion of Mrs. Julian Heath,
president of the National Housewives"
League, to President Wilson that an
embargo on the exportation ol wheat
from the United States be Imposed If
the prices continued to go up was
laid before the President tonight, but
no action was taken.
At the request of Chairman Lever,
of the agriculture committee. Secretary
Houston promised today to furnish, as
soon as possible, the Information as
K n,nHiiftlnn cnni m n t i n n and ex
portation of food products called f orJ-
in the pending resolution lntroaucea oj
Representative Farr, of Pennsylvania.
It was understood tonight that there
is no present intention of taking up
in the House committees any of the
various resolutions and bills relating
to the food situation that action on
them would accomplish no good end.
"Tha nrpsent situation." Representa
tive Lever said tonight, "strongly em
phasizes the necessity for putting into
opratlon all kinds of machinery to in
crease foodstuffs, but I think there is
no possibility of a famine.
Secretary Houston has written a let

a. great extension of acreage planted

"are capable of producing much more

CLASS PLAY IS WINNER
A!T AMERICAS CITIZEN" APPEALS
TO WASHINGTON AUDIENCE,
Stunning Gowna Worn by Gltia of
Cnat and Plot la Worked Out
Without Single Falter.
Without the customary hitches
which go with the ordinary amateur
production, the February, 1915, class of
the Washington rligh School presented
"An American Citizen" in the school
auditorium Friday night. "A great suc
cess, both financially and otherwise,
was the expression of Raymond R.
Staub, president of the graduating
class and manager of the production.
The plot deals with the trials and
tribulations of a brokerage firm which
has suffered at the hands of an em
bezzling partner. To straighten mat
ters out, the partner who left mys
teriously is reported killed in Europe
and to save the name of the firm one
of the remaining partners marries the
supposed widow of the derelict. Com
plications arise, but after four inter
esting acts all ends tappily.
The gowns worn by the women of
the cast are really stunning. Miss
Ellen Jackson, vice-president of the
class, and leading woman, wears a $250
ermine coat during her last appearance
on the stage. All the other girls of the
cast came in for a share of the ad
miration of the audience by their ap
pearance in such beautiful gowns.
The production will be presented
again tonight in the school auditorium.
More than 1000 were present last night.
Manager Raymond R. Staub estimated.
As a special added attraction Miss
June Shea entertained between acts and
before she was allowed to go she sang
elKht character songs, each in a differ
ent costume. Miss Ruth Doty was hur
accompanist. Following is the cast of

POLICE TO HOLD ALL SUSPECTS
FOR FEDERAL OFFICERS.
Number of Counterfeit Plecea Found
Leads to Belief Plant Is Working
Somewhere In City,
Counterfeit coin has been circulated
in Portland to such an extent recently
that all prisoners taken to the City Jail
with counterfeits in their possession
will be turned over to the Federal au
thorities for investigation, by request
of the United States District Attor
ney's office.
The request was answered Friday
night for the first time when William
Marr. aged 40 years, was arrested at
Front and Oak streets with an alleged
counterfeit 25-cent piece in his pocket.
Motorcycle Patrolmen Tully and Mor
ris, who arrested the man on a charge
of drunkenness, discovered the coin
and placed the second charge against
him.
An alleired counterfeiting outlit was
captured in scowtown Christmas night,
when Albert J. Kelly and Charles H.
Poole were arrested on suspicion that
they were members of a gang of coun
terfeiters. This outfit, the officers said,
wns fm- makincr silver dollars. The
coins, one of which was taken hj the
raid, were almost perfect copies.
More than a week ago a man was ar
rested bv the police with an alleged
counterfeit half-dollar in his possession.
Charles W. Jarvis, of Eugene, recently
admitted that he had the formula for
making counterfeit money, according to
a statement by United States Secret
Service Agent Glover.
While Federal authorities refused to
discuss the question last night, it is
police gossip that a gang of expert
counterfeiters has been operating in
Portland for some time. The circula
tion of 25-cent, 50-cent and $1 coins
leads to the conclusion that the men
are operating on a large scale and have
a well-fitted plant in some section of
the city.
ASTORIA DEBATERS WIN

RUMOR OF EXTRA
ii
Congress Loses Hope of Pass
ing Any General Legisla
tion Before March 4.
SHIP BILL FAILURE LIKELY
Democratic Leaders Tell President
Wilson Conservation and Philip
pine Independence Sleasnres
Cannot Be Reached.
WASHINGTON, jln. 16. Democratic
leaders In the Senate, beset by every
parliamentary obstacle that minority
Senators can resort to, have practically
abandoned hope of accomplishing any
general legislation in the few remain
ing weeks of the Sixty-third Congress,
except appropriation bills and the Gov
ernment ship-purchase bill.
Even tbe ship-purchase measure Is
in danger of failure, in the opinion of
some of the Senators. Although they
have assurance that this measure can
be passed, they are fearful lest the
press of appropriation bills, coupledj
with the concerted plans of Republi
can leaders to fight the ship bill, will
operate to keep tbe latter from reach
ing a vote.
Philippine Act Unlikely.
It became known today that some of
the Democratic Senators had told tbe
President that the conservation meas
ures and the Philippine Independence
bill, which he had urged in his annual
message to Congress, could not be
passed 41 this session. They also made
known to him their apprehensions re
garding the ship-purchase bilL
The Senate spent today in consider
ation of the District of Columbia ap
propriation bill, the seventh day that
has been devoted to it, while all the
great supply measures, including the
naval and military bills, remain to be
disposed of. Both of the latter are cer
tain to encounter opposition in the
Senate after they have been passed by
the House. Prolonged debate also is
certain on the rivers and harbors ap
propriation bill.
Extra Session Is Talked,
How to devote much time to anything
but appropriations before March 4, only
about six weeks off, is the problem
confronting the Administration Sena
tors and they have confided to some
of their friends the conclusion that
they canrot see how much general leg
islation can be accomplished. This sit
uation has revived talk of an extra
session. Although the dominant party
leaders are opposed to the extra ses
sion. It is asserted that one may be
demanded should the shipping bill fail.
In any event, it is said, it would not
be called until after the celebration of
the Panama Canal opening and the
President's trip to San Francisco.
One source of hope to Democrats had
been that business might be expedited
in night sessions of the Senate. The
party caucus agreed to this some time
ago, but efforts to hold night sessions
since have been fruitless, owing to
failure to muster a quorum.
ALPINE VILLAGE BURIED
Avalanche Attributed to Quake Also
Cuts St. Gothard Railway.
GENEVA, via Paris, Jan. 16. The
International SL Gothard Railroad
line has been cut by a huge avalanche

from that district, however, as the
wires are down.
The unparalleled number of ava
lanches ia the Alpsuis generally at
tributed to the earthquake in Italy. No

EDWARD GALL IS GUILTY
JURY IX FIVE. MIM'TES FINDS HE
KILLED OTTO LIDKE, KOV. SO.
Verdict of First-Degree Murder la Re
turned and Mrs. Ludke Soon Will
Face Trial In Vancouver.
VANCOUVER, Wash., Jan. 16. (Spe
cial.) Edward Gall' was found guilty
of murder In the first degree by a Jury
last night after a deliberation of but
five minutes. He was charged with
the killing of Otto Ludke, November 20,
near Ridgefield.
The trial was completed this after
noon and a recess was ordered by the
court that he might write his Instruc
tions to the Jury. Court reconvened at
7:30 o'clock, when the instructions were
read, argument continued and the case
was submitted to the Jury.
Gall confessed to the shooting of
Otto Ludke on the night of November
20, firing through a window at him
as he sat in tbe home of Axel Alvln.
The charge of No. 4 chilled shot and
a lead slug entered Ludke's neck and
killed him instantly. A few of the
shot grazed Mrs. Ludke, but she was
not injured seriously. She has been
arrested charged with being an acces
sory before the fact and, under the
law, she may be tried for murder In
the first degree, as the law as it now
Is permits a person accused of being
an accessory before th. fact to be
tried as a principal.
J. L. Sutherland was appointed by
Judge Back to defend Gall. Not a wit
ness for the defense was put on at the
trial today. Gall previously had plead
ed guilty to the charge, but the law
requires that he stand trial before a
Jury to determine the degree of mur
3er of which he Is guilty.
The witnesses for the state who tes
tified against Gall today were ' W. E.
Giles, ex-Sheriff Ira Cresap. Archie
Leonard, of Portland, who worked on
the case: W. C. Bates, Sophia Alvln,
wife of Axel Alvln, In whose home the

Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
