plumbed and searched.
One of the men arrested wriggled
loose and tried to make his escape,
but was caught by policemen. Still
protesting, the men were booked on
a charge of violating the liquor or
dinance. They are believed by the
police to be members of an organ
ized gang that has been running the
dry squad patrol along the water
front with California liquor.
SMALL NATIONS FAVOR
Defensive Qualities Make This Type
of Craft a Weapon of Much
Vsc fulness.
WASHINGTON. Abolition of the
submarine as an instrument of mod
ern warfare does not seem probable ;
to American naval officers who have ;
riven careful study to the arguments ,
put forth before allied naval com- j
missions investigating the subject.
It is the belief of these officers that
submarines will become more and
more numerous in the principal
navies of the world during the next
few years.
In reviewing the deliberations of
the allied commissions on naval terms
American officials find that while
many pertinent arguments were de
veloped against the use of subma
rines, many strong points also were
advanced in their favor. The prin
cipal argument for abolition was that
as long as the submarines were rec
ognized as legitimate instruments of
warfare there would remain the dan
ger of some nation repeating the
ruthless and inhuman campaign in
augurated by Germany. Advocates
of the submarine, however do not
believe such past inhumanities should
be the determining factor in deciding
whether the submarine should be
abolished.
The naval factions .both in this
country and abroad opposed to the
abolition of the submarine believe
that the factor of possible merciless
ness of the undersea craft should not
be separated from the equal and pos
sibly worse horrors of gas warfare,
bombing from the air and mines. The
parallel between the submarine and
the marine mine seems close, par
ticularly since the mine is now and
has for many years been recognized
by all nations as a legitimate instru
ment of war. Figures gathered by
the British during the war show that
the losses to British merchant ship
ping through mines amounted to
6,:i77.000 tons, compared with 5,739,
000 tons sunk by submarines.
The argument has been advanced
that despite the fact that the best
inventive genius of several nations
worked on the problem of devising
means to wipe the submarine out of
existence, the sub-surface craft re
mains the only long-radius vessel
that alone and unsupported, can go
nearly anywhere and. entirely de
fensive qualities make it a naval
weapon of the utmost usefulness
eve'n when restricted in its use
against merchant shipping.
At the worst. naval strategists
point out. it is never a liability that
must be protected and defended. It
is admitted among naval men that
the big ship still rules the seas. How
long this will be true is the question
now taxing the best naval brains of
the world. It is conceded, for the
present at least, that the nation that
holds blindly to one line of naval
development and neglects another,
particularly the submarine, will be
In great ultimate danger.
While the nations having the
strongest navies have throughout
the peace deliberations shown a dis
position to agree to the abolition of
the submarine, the smaller and
weaker nations maintain that, hav
ing less powerful navies they are
forced to cling to the more powerful
instruments of protection and of
fense and that, therefore, they must
retain the submarine as a matter of
eelf-preservation.
$100,000 SALE IS MADE
; Large Cash Realty Deal Buys

One of the biggest recent cash deals
in Portland real estate occurred Fri
day when Thomas Hendricksen and
David Pahra, proprietors of the pa
cific Tent & Awning company, com
pleted the purchase of the quarter
block on the southwest corner of
Fifteenth and Washington streets.
The- price was $100,000, all cash.

The building is a two-story brick
with basement and was built in 1&17.
It is at present occupied by a market,
butcher shop, bakery and an auto
mobile concern.
The purchase of the block was made

they are now improving that property
with a large building for an auto
eoncern.

ROUND-UP STUNTS RAPPED
Livestock Association Says . Fea
tures Have Bad Kffect.
SALEM. Or.. Sept. 27. (Special.)
The Pendleton round-up Friday was
given a hard slap in resolutions
adopted by the Oregon Pure-Bred
Livestock association. The resolu
tions deplore the practice of some
fairs of the north Pacific coast In
allowing round-up features among
the concessions and a committee was
appointed to urge directors of the fair
circuit to eliminate them.
It is charged that the round-up
features have a dissipating Influence
and tend to promote brutal and in
human treatment of animals, thus
having a demoralizing effect upon
youth. The association pledges loyal
support to fairs that comply with
its request and eliminate "wild west"
concessions in preference to fairs
that do not eliminate them. '
MORTGAGE MEN ELECT
WALTER M. DALY PRES1UEST
OF L'V ASSOCIATION.
Guarantee Company's Object Is to
Make Funds Available for
Erection of Homes.
Directors of the newly formed
Mortgage Guarantee company held
their first meeting at the Chamber
of Commerce Friday and elected
Walter M. Daly president; Robert E.
Smith, vice-president: Franklin T.
Griffith vice-president and W. O.
Daly secretary-treasurer. It was de
cided that the company should con
fine its loans exclusively to improved
real estate and those made for build
ing purposes.
Every resource of the company Is
to be used for relieving the present
crisis In the housing situation, since
ldfcal experts estimate that more than
two thousand homes must be built in
Portland before the situation Is re
lieved. It was to meet this condition
that local clearing-house banks and
leaders in industrial enterprises or
ganized the new company and through
it make both local and eastern funds
available for building operations.
The company has a capital and sur
plus of $220,000 and will use this sum
as a revolving fund, lending to per
sons who contemplate building homes
for themselves or to rent and then
reselling the mortgages. Nearly every
bank president in Multnomah county
wa3 included in the incorporators of
the company and its directors are:
Emery Olmstead, J. C. Ainsworth
Franklin T. Griffith, Isaac D. Hunt,
Nathan Strauss, J. F. Daly, Ira Pow
ers, Robert E. Smith, S. F. Wilson
Paul C. Murphy, Walter M. Daly, R. S.
Howard. E. B. McXaughton, Edgar
Smith, W. P. Olds and Earl C. Bro
naugh.
The company has opened offices
with the Title & Trust company on
1-ourth street and a number of appli
cations for building loans already
have been approved. It has opened up
a line of credit with the United States
Mortgage company of New York and
other large financial institutions and
is in position to finance most any
building operation In Portland which
offers the security re :ired by the
state law under which it is operating.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. Dismissal of
Russell Hancock Miles as an instruc

Lane avenue and Twelfth street, on
the charge of insubordination by the
board of education, was occasioned,
according to C. Austin Miles, father
of the young man, by the latter's re

"Dearie, I love you. Tell me that
you love me true."
Mr. Miles, junior, is a musician and

yesterday that his son remonstrated
with Mrs. Elizabeth B. Pendlebury,
principal of the Elwood school,
against teaching the pupils the song.

Mr. Miles.
"Mrs. Pendlebury replied, 'Not all
the children of Oak Lane are well
bred.'
'"So much more the reason why
they should not be taught this song,'
my son rejoined.
According to Mr. Miles, ragtime is
introduced into the public schools by
music dealers.
"I am Informed." he said, "that
music dealers send the principals of
the schools sample copies of songs.
Later the music dealer calls up the
principal and asks if he can not sup
ply the school with, say. 500 copies.
And the unsuspecting principal con
sents." The dismissal of his son, Mr. Miles
asserted, was agreed upon at a meet
ing of the honrd of education's com
mittee on elementary schools May 7,
notwithstanding that r.t the same
mtin9 th crtmmtttA .Rlired Mr.
Miles, junior, that if he wrote a let-'
ter of apology he would be allowed
to retain his position.
"We admit insubordination, but we
charge bad faith on the part of the
members of the board of education,"
Mr. Miles said. "At that meeting
Simon tlrats asked my son if he was
willing to write a letter rayinb he re
gretted his behavior. He answered
that he was and we left the meeting
with the understanding that upon the
presentation of the letter the mater
would be setled. But within a few
minutes after we left, behind closed
doors, the committe changed its de
cision. When m v son took the letter
to the office of the board the next I
morning he was told It was too lute."
