Miss Thibault had just crossed the street from the south curb to ask some question of the conductor of a streetcar, which was standing on the track at tiiat point- She was re turning t3 the curb to join Albert La montagne, an acquaintance, of the Cornelius hotel, when the accident occurred. Richardson was driving west on Washington street at the time. At that point the streetcar track is on the north side of the street and it was consequently necessary for him to drive between the standing streetcar and the south curb. The driver at tempted to avoid striking the woman by swerving to the curb, but the fender struck her and knocked her to the pavement. Richardson lives at the Wheeldon annex. Miss Alma Weiss, 18, of 288 East Ninth street, received severe bruises on the arm and leg as the result of being struck by an automobile on Broadway between Alder and Wash ington streets.

'KEYNOTE' SPEECH SLATED Convention 3fectlng Regarded as "Most Important Ever Held" Is Scheduled for Today. XEW TOHK, May 8. Eugene V. Debs, now serving 10 years in the Atlanta, Ga., penitentiary , for viola tion of the war-time espionage laws, will be formally launched here tomor row in the 1920 national political cam paign as a candidate for. the fifth time for the socialist presidential nomination. Leaders of the socialist party at the convention, here were sponsors for this statement tonight, adding that Morris Hillquit probably would an nounce Debs as "our one candidate" in his second convention epeech of a "keynote" nature, to be delivered at a socialist mass meeting in Madison Sq.uare Garden. Tomorrow's meeting is regarded as the "most important ever held" by the socialist party of America, ac cording to executive committetvien. The utterances there, they said to night, "will in large measure lay the lines for the coming campaign." rarfy Leaders to Speak. Hillquist, Seymour Stedman of Chi cago, Victor Berger, unseated United States representative from Mil waukee, and Oscar-Ameringer of Ok lahoma City are scheduled to pro nounce orthodox party views on lead ing topics. These are expected to include am nesty for political prisoners, the gov ernment's attitude toward strikers, free speech, free press and free as semblage, taxation, socialization of basic industries. Attorney - General Palmer's "campaign of repression," deportations, war profits and profit eering, the league of nations, inde pendence of Ireland and self-determination for small nationalities. An attack on the administration of President Wilson and a prediction that the socialist party would poll more than 2,000,000 votes in the presi dential campaign were made by Hill quit. Wilson's Record Ansalled. He said that the party would sur vive the concerted attack, "unparal leled in ferociousness and lawless ness," made on It in the last year by "all the powers of darkness and op pression in the country." He declared that the last three years had furnished the most striking and abhorrent proof of the fallacy of the "Goodman" theory in politics. "If there remained any large sec tions of workers who put their trust in old party Messiah," he said, "Wood row Wilson must have effectively destroyed their naive faith. For be it remembered that in 1916, Wood-ro-7 Wilson ran as a radical. "He promised socialism through the short cut of the democratic party and thousands of radicals throughout the country voted for him rather than throw away their votes on the hope less candidates of the socialist party." 125 MOTHERS ON CAMPUS SUCCESSFUL OBSERVANCE IS HELD ON UNIVERSITY CAMPUS.

GASOLINE SUPPLY IS LOW (Continued From First Page. ) cording to J. C. Storey, resident man ager of the company and, with no re strictions imposed on the sale of this gasoline, representing storage for the entire state, it is sure to dwindle rap idly. Further Supplies Distant. The Shell company does not expect another supply of gasoline complying with the Oregon specific gravity test law for 20 or 30 days, according to Mr. Storey. In an effort to conserve their present supply so that it will last for 21 days, when the next tank steamer with gas oline complying with the Oregon law is expected, an embargo was effected yesterday by the three other oil com panies operating in Portland. Allowances Cat Down, Under this embargo the gasoline supply is being allocated on a ratio of 50-per cent of the usual monthly supply to all industrial concerns, 30 per cent to service stations and 20 per cent to pleasure vehicles. Conference Held Mere. The oerious shortage of gasoline was cauea to Mayor Baker's atten tion yesterday, by Julius L. Meier. president of the Meier & Frank com pany. An immediate conference was called in the office of Mr. Meier. Attending were . representatives of the oil companies, who were called to the meeting by the mayor: W. B. Dodson, executive secretary of the Chamber of Commerce; Deputy Dis trict Attorney Hammersley, Chief .Deputy city Attorney Tomlinson. City Commissioner Bigelow and a number of business men. Governor Olcott was called by tele phone and apprised of the acute shortage, after, which the executive called State Treasurer Hoff into con- ference. Later Governor Olcott in formed Mr. Meier that suspension of the enforcement of the. gravity test law was being considered and that definite announcement would be made by State Treasurer Hoff Monday. Strenuous errort to repeal the spe cific gravity test law in Oregon was made at the special session of the legislature last January. The repeal law was passed by the house, but met defeat in the senate. When the re peal law came to a vote in the senate there was a tie. and the vote against the repeal of the law was cast by the president of the senate, W. T. Vinson of YamhilL Although representatives and mem bers of the Motor Car Dealers' asso ciation of Oregon had. fought the re peal of the specific gravity test law in former years, at the special ses sion they supported it. Claims sup ported by government tests showed h that the gravity test required by the Oregon law did not give gasoline con sumers a higher grade product, but because of the process of refining required the cost of such gasoline is approximately 2 cents per gallon greater than gasoline sold in Wash ington and California. Should the state officials suspend prosecution for violations of the spe cific gravity test, and thus permit the use of Washington gasoline in Oregon during the period of the shortage, it is probable that the cost of gasoline will drop 154 cents a gallon. Under the present embargo pleasure vehicles will be allowed but one-fifth of the capacity of the tank. Should a ten-gallon tank contain one gallon when gasoline is sought, an additinal gallon will be the maximum amount sold. Trucks and commercial vehicles will be allowed one-half tank ca pacity. Under the embargo there is danger of automobile drivers running short of gasoline oh pleasure trips and the old plan of "borrowing" gasoline from fellow autoists when caught in a pinch is not likely to prove ef fective. Standard Agents Confer. Yesterday all the sales agents and special agents of the Standard Oil company were called into the Port land office for conference. In many of the towns of the state the gaso line supply is exhausted, it was said. Because of the gasoline shortage prevailing throughout the .country, suspension of the specific gravity test law will not insure Oregon against a shortage later, say officials of the oil companies, but it will relieve the present aggravated situation. According to government statistics the output of gasoline from storage is 2,000,000 barrels greater each month than the production. This is as cribed to the rapid increase in the use of gasoline-propelled vehicles. APPEAL SENT TO GOVERNOR State Treasurer Hoff 3Iay Decide on Law's Enforcement. SALEM. Or., May 8. (Special.) Failure of the legislature at-its spe cial session last January to repeal the law prohibiting the sale of gasoline of less than 56 gravity in Oregon may result in an early famine of the prod uct in this state according to infor mation received at the executive of fices from Mayor Baker of Portland. Mayor Baker informed Governor Olcott that Portland had a limited supply of gasoline at the present time and in the event of an emergency, sought to learn if enforcement of the gravity law could not be held in abeyance temporarily. The mayor was referred to O. P. Hoff. state treasurer, who by virtue of holding this office also is state sealer of weights and measures. Last December a similar situation confronted the gasoline consumers of Oregon and after several conferences the officials agreed to allow oil of less than 56 gravity to come into the state. When the legislature met in special session in January a bill was introduced repealing . the gasoline gravity law. This proposed act had the indorsement of the committee on roads and highways but was defeated upon being placed to a vote.

No ac tions may be brought against the government in regard to its opera tion of the telegraph systems of the country during the wartime period unless provided for by congressional statute. Judge Frank H. Rudkln de clared in the United States district court today in dismissing a $3500 damage suit for' non-delivery of a telegram, brought by Thomas Whife. a Pullman porter, and his wife, Mar tha White. White alleged that a telegram he sent from Portland to Mrs. White in Oakland was not delivered by the Western Unjoa. He contended that a congressional act of May 3, 1887, which specified wherein a person might recover damages without a spe cial statutory provision, appeared to cover the case.
