DEFICIT STARTING POINT

Mark Sullivan Relates Story of
Campaign Fund or $1,500,000
That Governor Turned Down.
BY MARK SULLIVAN.
(Coprieht, 1U20, by the New York Post,
Inc. Published by arrangement.)
In this article discussing the leadership
f the democratic party the next four
years, Mark Sullivan reveals a secret story
of the iate campaign how. at the moment
the democratic national committee was
hustling to collect 7500 as an advance
payment on Governor Cox's special train,
ft received an ofrer or $1,500,000 provid
ing Governor Cox would make a certain
speech, which was not made.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13. (Special.)
Such a multitude of things hap
pened at the recent election, and so
many of them were spectacular, that
ft was not surprising ff the public
finds itself wandering In a fog com
posed partly of fact and partly of
surmise.
In an effort to get rid of much of
the surmise and bring the -actual
facts into their true relations, there
is no point more convincing to start
from than the present condition and
future prospects of the democratic
senators and representatives who will
be In congress after March 4. What
these leaders will do and what poli
cies they will have must appear In
due course. For. the present let ue
consider a separate thing, the future
of the democratic party as a national
organization whose chief function
looks to the selection of a candidate
for the presidency every four yeara.
National Committee Real Ruler.
In this sense the controlling body
of the party is the democratic na
tional committee. Whatever the party
is to do officially must be done
through this committee. Normally
this committee more or less goes to
sleep during the four years between
elections, but It Is understood that
eome elements In the party will un
dertake to bring about a special
meeting in December or January to
.survey the conditions. Take account
of assets and determine what to do
about the next four years. At that
meeting it will probably appear what
element in the party Is likely to be
dominant, and Just what individual
Is likely to assume leadership.
About this last point, there is much
talk that is the sheerest surmise and
goes far afield from the facts. In
one quarter It is said that Cox will
continue to be the leader In another
that. Bryan is going to come to live
in Washington and take charge of
the democratic party in another that
the friends of .Mr. McAdoo are going
to be dominant in the national com
mittee. Deficit Good Starting: Point.
To consider these possibilities in
' telligently, one starting point as
good as any other is the hard, defi
nite and insistent fact that the demo
cratic organization ended the cam
paign with a loan due at the bank
for 1150,000 and other bills aggre
gating nearly the. same amount a
total deficit of nearly 1300,000. That
deficit is there. Somebody must pay
It. My observation has been that
the persons who make up a deficit
under . such circumstances usually
have a good deal to say about the
future management of things. Money
talks. It talks as much when it is
In the form of campaign contribu
tions as anywhere else.
, This deficit of nearly 300, 000 is
'the most concrete and urgent fact
In the democrat!; situation. To be

Any .Number of Midshipmen Will
Be Dismissed if Necessary, Says
Secretary' of Navy.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13. The navy
department "will go to the limit" to
uphold the authorities of the Naal
Academy at Annapolis in their efforts
to stamp out hazing at the institu
tion. Secretary Daniels announced to
day in Instructions that no hazing
would be tolerated and that any "num
ber of midshipmen would be dis
missed If necessary to end the prac
tice. "I would rather have 800 men at
Annapolis who can obey orders than
2200 who cannot," said Mr. Daniels.
"The presence of Insubordinate mid
shipmen is not desired. Men who are
being trained to give orders must
first of all learn to obey."
No new cases of hazing have been
reported as a result pi the investiga
tion being conducted under Rear-Ad-miral
Scales, superintendent of the
tffcademy, Mr. Daniels said. One mid
shipman already has been expelled,
the secretary announced, adding that
he had entire confidence In Rear-Ad-miral
Scales' ability to handle the
situation.
PORT RAILWAY SETTLED
Belt Line at Astoria to Naval Base
Site Starts in Spring.
ASTORIA. Or.. Nov. 13. (Special.)
The proposed extension of the port
belt line railroad to the naval base
site is urgently desired by the mem
bers of the naval board, who were
here yesterday and the question of the
right of way for the railroad across
the government property was ad
justed. Naval officers gave instructions
that when the company transfers the
property to the government, it re
serve a 60-foot strip along the shore
line as the belt line right of way.
This agreement solves a problem
which the port commission has been
wrestling with for Bome time, and
means that the extension of the belt
line road to Cathlamet bay will begin
early next spring.

Through Great Pavilions.
With thousands of Portland 'young

great pavilion and storming grand
stands and reserved sections, thor
oughly at home and Immensely happy,
the tenth annual Pacific International
Livestock . exposition ' opened yester
day with 3500 animal bluebloods of
the northwest officially listed for
display.
Rows on rows of pure bred cattle
of all the breeds known and prized
for beef or dairy; hundreds of beau

and brimming .full of life and fire;
pens of great swine, contented sheep
and silken coated goats, all were
there, and witb the arrival late in the
afternoon of several cars of stock

Approximately 12,000 persons. In
cluding the thousands of youngsters
from the Portland schools who were
admitted free on the opening day,
passed through the gates of the pa
vilion and strolled through 'the aisles
among the animals.
Kings and queens of the animal
world were there, carefully groomed
and spotless, pedigreed and regis
tered, cup and ribbon winners. The
thousands paused to pay tribute,
passing timid hands over sleek sides
and barrel-rounded backs.
But more than the animal beauty
perhaps, more than the immense
bulk of the . Shorthorns, and " the
Aberdeen-Angus or the Holsteins.
each onlooker was impressed with
the supreme contentment, the Joy
each beast expressed at 'a comfort
able stall and an opportunity to rest.
For some were tired, worn out by
the rough days on the freight trains,
and as they stretched out full length
in the soft clean straw and sawdust
no one could doubt but they were
happy.
Children Have Or eat Day. '
Great bulls rounded and monstrous
in bulk as a tank truck lay with
sides half buried in the straw, eyes
closed unmindful of the throngs that
admired ' them. In another section
whole pens full of fat hogs lounged
about, too happy to eat, while others,
rested from their journey, nosed
about in the straw for stray kernels
of grain.
But it was a great day for the
children. By streetcars, autos nad on

and colors. They played chase through
the stands while-the crowd was filing

George A. White to Demand In
vestigation; Persons Responsi
ble Due for Grilling.
SALEM, Or., Nov. 13. (Special.)
After the discovery today that one of
the men Included in the slacker list
for Oregon was killed in tne battle of
the Argonne, Adjutant-Greneral George
A. White announced that he would
demand an early and searching in
vestigation to determine who was
responsible for the errors.
The name of the soldier who fought
and died in the battle of the Argonne
and whose name was subsequently
included in the slacker list was the
15th Oregon soldier to be located by
Mr. White upon the federal compila
tion of draft deserters which was fur
nished recently by the government.
"Carelessness that is nothing short
of criminal is responsible for this
outrage," said Colonel White who
contends that with so many avenues
of information, there was no excuse
for lifting a single Oregon soldier as
a slacker. The check of the 703 names
on the list is not yet completed and
will not be released, Mr. White said,
until It has been checked against the
name of every soldier In Oregon who
can, be located. It will then be re
turned to Washington for checking
against the government's lists.
"The mistakes are doubly serious,"
said the adjutant-general, "for the
reason that had they been published
in the origin.! form a series of out
rageous injustices would have been
done and. for the reason that the
errors are delaying the publication
of names of the draft dodgers.
"Splendid co-operation in checking
these names is being given by clerks
and former members of draft boards
which goes to show the errors were
not made there. But whatever the
cause of euch blundering, it moist be
located. The government will be
asked to make the investigation in
conjunction with the state."

30 Per Cent Increase
Wanted by Company.
OREGON CHARGE LOWEST
Concedn Points Out That It Is
Making No Profit.
$1,200,000 IS NEEDED
Corporation Applies for Rate to
Vield 8 Per Cent on Invest
ment In Properties.
Application for a 30 per cent In
crease In-telephone rates was made by
the Taciflc Telephone & Telegraph
company yesterday to the public
service commission. If the increase is
granted it will mean an Increase of
about 1,200,000 a year In the revenue
of the company, which will amount to
a yield of 8 per cent on the invest
ment. This would also wipe out the
deficit which the company faces at
the end of the year..
Heavy increase in cost of operation;
demands for telephones which cannot
be supplied and Inability to earn even
a fair yield, are among the reasons
set forth for the new rate.
Value Put at 31,300,0n.
"The fair value of applicant's prop
erties," says the application .filed by
C. E. Hickman, division commercial
superintendent, devoted to , a gen
eral and comprehensive telephone
service in the state of Oregon, is In
excess of 21,500,000; that applicant's
annual net revenue from operations
In the state of Oregon la less than
nothing; that to be requested to con
tinue to operate under these condi
tions is a confiscation of applicant's
property, and applicant- declares that
it Is both unwilling and unable to
maintain service and make extensions
to Its plant under the existing con
ditions. "Many of the extraordinary eco
nomic . changes. - particularly In the
matter of wages for labor, vastly in
creasing applicant's costs of opera
tion and construction, experienced by
applicant In common with business
everywhere as a result of a world
war, which changes the public service
commission has heretofore dealt with
as temporary and transient, are in
applicant's operations permanent, and
must now be recognized as permanent
factors in determining Just, reason
able and sufficient rates."
Rates Lower In Oregon.
Because of the orders of the public
service commission, Oregon people
are securing the same comprehensive
telephone service as Is rendered by
the company in California and Wash
ington at lower rates than those
charged In the neighboring states.
In spite of every handicap, the com
pany declares. In the first . nine
months of 1920 it has actually in
stalled 24,205 telephones. This is
about 85 per cent more than the
average for the first nine months of
any of the preceding five years and
constitutes the best Record ever made
in Oregon In the matter' of keeping
pace with demand. The company still
has 2000 orders for telephone instal
lations now held back for lack of
plant.
The company has reached a point.
declares the application, beyond
which it cannot go in meeting the
persistent demand, unless its prop
erties are .put on a paying basis in
Oregon, enabling it to sustain its
credit and secure Oregon's necessities
in money and material for its ex
traordinary growth.
Reclassification la Asked.
Complete reclassification of towns
in Oregon is requested in the applica
tion. Towns are placed in groups and
each group has its own rate. The
present groups have been torn apart

Attorney for ex-Official Will Con
tend That Removal Without Sen
ate Concurrence Was Void.
THE ORE30NIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Nov. 13. Suit will be
brought in the Upited States court
of claims within the next few days
to recover salary alleged to be due
Frank S. Myers, former postmaster
of Portland, for nine months, dating
from the time of his removal from
office. Will R. King, as attorney for
Mr. Myers, announced tonight.-
It will jbe contended that Mr.
Myers removal was not valid with
out the concurrence of the senate.
Although the statute under which
the suit will be brought has been in
force since 1835, It Is said that this
is the first time that the question
has been raised as to the validity of
the removal of a presidential appoin
tee without the consent of the senate.
The amount which the action will
seek to reepver is $4500. Mr. King
will have associated with him in the
trial of the case Judge Martin L.
Pipes of Portland.
The removal of Postmaster Myers
followed the receipt by the post
office department of a report made
by two inspectors as the result of
an investigation in Portland some
thing more than a year ago.
HARDING IS MAROONED
Recreation on Land or Sea Made
Impossible by Storm.
, POINT ISABEL, Texas, Nov. 13.
Cut off by an unseasonable storm
from recreation on land or sea, Pres
tdent-eleet Harding spent today in
Point Isabel readifig and making pre
liminary preparation for the speech
he will deliver next Thursday at New
Orleans.
The president-elect and his party
virtually were marooned for the-day

Country club., but automobile drivers
pronounced the trip impracticable.
Unless the weather1 moderates by
tomorrow the Harding party may be

HAT WARD FIELD, Eugene. Or..
Nov. 13. (Special.) This. .r.n.o-
town tonight wildly acclaimed youne
William Henry Steers of The Dalles,
or., whoso stellar football achieve
ments this afternoon enabled a re
vitalized, fighting, hard-bucking Uni
versity of Oregon team to win a 17-to-0
victory over the University of
"wmngion. Here are a few of the
many things that Mr. Steers accom
plished in his afternoon's work:
Caught a Washington nunt on his
own 23-yard line early in the second '
quarter, and, dodging, twisting and
"'S8""5 tnrough Half the Washing
ton team, ran 75 yards for Oregon's
first touchdown. From the Washing
ton 12-yard line in the third quarter,
at a most difficult angle, .lifted a
beautiful dropkick between goalposts.
Just after the opening of the fourth
quarter following Chapman's inter
ception of a Washington forward pass
and run to the four-yard line, smashed
over ror the second Oregon touch
down. Twice after touchdowns made
perfect goal kicks, adding a point
each time to the Oregon score. By
his own efforts, made 94 yards from
scrimmage, exclusive of his 75-yard
run for a touchdown.
In addition to all which, this earns
William Henry Steers, missed an
other dropkick for. a field goal, this
time in the second quarter, by the
slim margin of one gnat's eyelash.
The ball hit one of the goal uprights
and bounded back into the field for
a touchback. Decidedly It was on
busy afternoon for Mr. Steers. When
he left the field in the middle of the
last period to give way to Bill Rlne
hart at quarter, a wide grin deserved,
ly bespread his battered face.
Oregon Team Displays Fight.
But agile as Mr. Steers was, and
important as were His contributions
to Oregon's cause, he was not the
whole show, at that. The entire Ore
gon team played with, a fire, a snap,
a fighting dash that never gave
Washington so much as an opportun
ity to score. It was an eleven vastly
improved, a team that had found it
