15 ARTHUR TO FOR RE ELECTION Candidacy for Place in Senate Is Denied. :POLICIES STATED BRIEFLY Ttepresentative Emphasizes Interest In Establishment of Naval Base ' in Columbia River. He is not a candidate for the United States senate, but will seek to return to the lower house, declares C. N. Mc Arthur, representative from the Third congressional district. To set the po- litical gossips at rest, Mr. McArthur T makes the following statement: During the past few weeks several Oregon newspapers have mentioned me as a possible candidate for the repub lican nomination for United States sen ator from this state for the term be ginning March 4, 1921, and since my re turn to Portland two weeks ago, I have been frequently interrogated as to whether I intend to enter the sena torial race or seek re-election to the house of representatives. I deeply appreciate the offers of support that have come to me from many sections of the state in connec tion with the senatorial race, but I ' wish to take this opportunity of in forming the public that I shall not en ter this contest, but shall seek re election to the I'ouse. Kival But Plan Supported. "I am now serving my third term as representative from the Third Oregon district and am a memtfer of the im portant committee on naval affairs. I am deeply interested in the establish ment of a naval base at the mouth of the Columbia river and in channel and harbor improvements that will put Portland on the map as a port, and it would be the height of folly volun . tarlly to abandon my position in the house, where 1 can help these matters along, for the uncertainty of a (sena torial race. "I am also interested in other meas ures affecting the welfare of this sec tion of the country, as well as those - of national character, and would like to remain in congress long enough to assist in writing this legislation on the ' statute books. I am deeply sensible of . the honors already conferred upon me by the people of this district and at the proper time shall issue a formal dec laration of my candidacy for re-election, standing squarely upon my record." McArthur Is In Portland. Mr. McArthur arrived in Portland two weeks ago, having come to Ore gon for the purpose of accompanying Secretary Daniels and Admirals Parks and McKean on their tour of inspec 1 tion of the Columbia river. During : the past few days he has been in conference with delegations and lndi- viduals who are interested in legisla tive and departmental matters at Washington. inasmuch as the house f representa tives is not transacting any business of importance, he will not return to Washington until October 1. Before leaving Portland, he will confer with members of the Port of Portland and others interested in port matters. Mr. McArthur has reopened his of fices in the Yeon building, which have been clOBed since lie first went to congress in 1915. He will hereafter maintain these offices for the transac tion of official business while in the city. vaudeville to a cinema house of the first order went into effect.

SWEEPING CHANGES MADE I NEW C0UH T Four Attaches of Domestic Re lations Tribunal to Go. THREE DISMISSED WOMEN Xcw Quartet for Places of Those Discharged by Judge Jacob Kanzler. That a new broom iweeps clean was proved in the court of domestic rela tions, formerly the juvenile court, yes terday. Judge Jacob Kanzler announc ing the loppinc of four appointees of Judge Tazwell. three of them women, from the payroll on September JO, and the selection of four new probation of ficers. This leaves only Mrs. Sadie W. Gardner, stenographer, and E. H. Pick ard. deputy probation officer, of the old regime which terminated July I. Mrs. Delia C. Whiting, chief proba tion officer for girls; Mrs. Sophie E. King, deputy probation officer for girls; Mrs. Mary Mallett, deputy probation of ficer for girls, and T. B. McDevitt, deputy probation officer, are the em ployes who received notice that their services will terminate with tne close of this month. Mrs. Mary E. Pringle. an employe of the attendance department of the Port land public schools for the past five years, has been named acting chief probation officer for girls. The other probation officers appointed In the girls' division of the work of the court of domestic relations are Mrs. Kate H. Magulre and Mrs.. Eva Pillsbury, both of the women's protective division of the police bureau. BTevr Appointees Approved. William S. Hale, for five years head of the state industrial school for boys at Salem, will replace Mr. McDevitt. The new appointees have all been approved by the child welfare commis sion of the state and have only to b formally installed by the Multnomah county commissioners. . Miss Mary A. Kelly, head of the home placing department of the court, re signed two weeks ago to take up new work In California. Her position has not yet been filled and Judge Kanzler is considering discontinuing the work of that department. The chief probation officer for girls ha been receiving $140 a month, her assistants $110 and $100. Deputy pro bation officers in the boys' division receive $110. All of the employes replaced by yes terday's order of Judge Kanzler alBO have been approved by the child wel fare commission as. quail fled for the positions they have been holding. "Among those qualified, however. I found some whom I believe to be bet ter fitted for the work," explained Judge Kanzler. "Mrs. Pringle. in par ticular, comes to me highly recom mended by the child welfare com mission." Controversy Is Possible. A question which is now agitating court house circles is whether the four employes who have been notlfed that their services will not be required after the end of .this month will allow themselves to be dismissed. It Is known that an attorney has been con sulted and that a stiff fight, bringing into controversy not only the right of Judge Kanzler to hire or discharge employes In the court of domestic rela tions, but the constitutionality of the court Itself is under contemplation. ' Since the inception of the court of domestic relations, lawyers have held its operation to be entirely Illegal, con tending that the law which brought it into being is invalid. Attorney-General Brown even expressed his doubt as to the legitimacy of the operation of the new court, but no rt;st case has yet been filed. If the matter is brought to issue. It probably would be on the grounds that Judge Kanzler is not legally a judge iiid that the old juvenile court has not been abolished In fact, holding that only Judge Tazwell, now circuit but formerly county and juvenile judge, can discharge employes of the court. There are legal obstacles to such ac tion but it Is believe that the sweep- OIL HAS MADE MANY MILLIONAIRES IS BEING DRILLED FOR IN THE Gray's Harbor District BY THE Standand Oil Company If oil is struck, there is no limit to the possi bility of a small investment in this property.
