THE SUNDAY OREGONIAX,- PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 14, 1920 HOUSE SPEAKER WHO has been In rizona for the benefit of her health. She is survived by : her husband, who is employed by the; PACIFIC COAST GETS Georgia, as a democrat, and his terra is for six years.' The' appointments are recess ones and the nominations under the law are subject to approval by the senate. Two Members Reappointment. The chairman and Mr. Donald are reappointed from the present board, while the selection of Mr. Thompson and Mr. Teal was made some time ago. but was not announced because some of the. members appointed then declined to serve. The yincluded Theo dore Marburg- of Baltimore, Gavin McNab of San Francisco and Martin Gillen of Wisconsin. ' . Under the law. not more than four members of the board can be of any one political party. Four democrats and three republicans have been ap pointed, but in some quarters today doubt was expressed whether the re publican senate would approve this political alignment in view of the fact that a republican administration will come into power on next March 4. It was regarded as possible that action on the nominations would, be held up until after March 4. . , Immediate organization of the new board is looked for, as a number of policies with respect to the government-owned merchant marine . laid down in the merchant marine act can not be carried Into effect until the full board has begun to function. Much of the preliminary work, how ever, has been been done by the pres ent board. . Since congress failed to make a specific appropriation for the salaries of : the members of- the new board, they are not expected to draw any pay until congress at its next session nas made funds available. The salaries fixed by law are $12. 000 for each commissioner. Members of the board must devote all their time to the duties of their office and' they must divest themselves from any interest which they may have in the shipping industry. FAIR TREATMENT ASSURED Mr. Dot! son Believes Mr. Teal WiTl See to Port's Rights. "With the selection by President Wilson of Joseph N. Teal as a mem- I ber of the United States shipping board, I feel that Portland and its tributary trading radius will receive absolutely fair and just treatment and that our worst troubles on the score of . unfair and discriminatory actions against us will cease," said W. D. B. Dodson, general manager of the Chamber of Commerce, upon his arrival from Washington at 7 o'clock last night. Mr. Dodson had been absent on spe cial missions for the chamber fer about five and one-half months and expressed keenv pleasure at being in his home city once more. He has no immediate plans for any future east ern trips, but said he will advise with his board of directors as to future activity along this line. His own impression, he said, is that with Mr. Teal's appointment to the shipping board, the interests of Portland and its trading territory will . be -well cared for as to ships and with rela tion to a square deal all around, inso far as it lies within Mr. Teal's sphere of influence as a member. "I really feel quite confident of the future," said Mr. Dodson. "Things look good to me, now that Mr. Teal has been given a position on the ship ping board and with the assurances already gained from authorities at Washington that we shall get fair treatment. I am assured by high offi cers of the board that our case will be well cared for from now on. that we shall have ample ships for our needs and that no discrimination will be practiced against us. "i went to Washington for the chamber particularly to go into the fight for our shipping rights and return with the firm belief that we have won our point; that we .were right in our position that we should not be subjected to the unspeakable humiliation and unfairness of being put into the Seattle district, where our port would be dominated by unfriendly interests to our great det riment, and that we have proved we were right. The first great victory was had when .we were reassigned to the California district and the second was when Mr. Teal obtained appointment to the shipping board. "I now have assurance that this port will not be compelled to compete with privately-owned vessels -in the oriental service by shipping board steamers; that a readjustment will be made in due time and that the coast wise feeder service in the orient will be so conducted that we shall have fair treatment on that score." There is a sort of industrial depres sion in the east and south. Mr. Dod son said, but that this will adjust it self and that prosperity will replace It very soon, is the prevailing opinion in business circles.' As a beginning toward what It. la hoped by those interested will prov to be a permanent organization de signed to weld together ports in terri tory not dominated by the great aii9 operating companies. Mr. Dodson aid that representatives of 32 states un decided to co-operate in obtaining fair treatment from the government. This association of interests is ex pected, he said, to result in great good to the communities interested, as by a union of their strength It is believed they will be able to make their in fluence felt far better than they could individually. ooutnern i'acirtc company at Cottage Grove; her father, William Hartley, who lives In Washington; a sister, Mrs. Edna Brown, of Reedsport. and three little sons.

OREGON'S WORK LAUDED Western Members of Congress In augurate Plan to Care ' for Development Interests. Senate May Not ConTirtn Action of President Which Gives Democrats , Majority of Organization. VOCATIONAL TRAINING HERE PRAISED BY DIRECTOR. KNOWS WE 2 111 SHIPPING BODY THE OREGOXIAX NEWS BUREAU, Washington, Nov.. 13. A movement among western members of congress to make a change in the speakership of the house in the interest of the special projects of the west, good roads,- reclamation and water power development, is gathering some mo mentum. ...... Dr. Simon D. Fess of Ohio is picked as the beneficiary -of this move. There is no particular opposition to Speaker Oillette, but there is a feeling that a New England man cannot possess the deep sympathy with the problems of the west that is needed at this time. Dr. Fess for several years has been chairman of the national republican congressional campaign committee.. In 1918 and again this year he has obtained the election of a very strongly republican house and - his name is put forward as the logical man from the middle west familiar with and sympathetic to .the needs of the whole country and particularly the west. When Speaker Gillette was elected Dr. Fess was a tentative can didate but withdrew in the interest of party harmony and yie plan is now to make Mr. Gillette chairman of the ways and means committee or one of the other Important .commit tees of the house. From Ohio comes additional pres sure for the elevation of Dr. Fess to the speakership. Two years from now the republicans expect to elect a successor to Senator Pomerene, a democrat. Unless Dr. Fess is in the speaker's chair he will be the logical candidate for the toga now held by the democratic senator-from Ohio. Initial Steps Being Taken. There are men who would like to step into Pomerene's shoes and there is no chance for them unless Dr. Fess is eliminated by promotion. Already as the western republicans in .con gress begin to arrive the initial steps in this campaign are being taken ani it is more than probable that the plan will succeed. Representative Fess. who was for merly president of Antioch. college, ranks as the great scholar of the house and is especially an authority on history. He has written several books, but, notwithstanding his long ' years in a school room, he possesses remarkable ability on the stump, be ing a brilliant orator. Obituary.

"I took medicine for years for my rheumatism, but I might as well have thrown my money In the street for all the good it did me." said Mr. Charles Schauer of No. S3 Iroquois street, Freeport, 111. As Mr. Schauer Is now free from rheumatism an account of his experi ence will interest those who sill suf fer. - "My legs from the knees down were always cold and they ached. The muscles were sore and the cords stiff. When I bent my knees they seemed to grate. I had a continual backache and pain in the shoulders. . "My circulation was so poor that my hands and feet would get numb and I would have to rub them. I had so much pain that my nights were restless. "After years of useless effort to get well I read about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and got a box. I thought the pills helped me and bought a second box. By the time I had used that one I felt more at ease and .slept bet ter. By the time I had taken six boxes the pain in my back and shoul ders had left me and I was on the road to recovery. My hands and feet were no longer cold, the sorenes is gone from the muscles and I am rec ommending Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to everyone who has rheumatic pains or who suffers from poor circulation of the blood." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills enrich the blood by enabling it to absorb more oxygen. This oxygen burns up the poisons of rheumatism and other im purities. By keeping the blood rich and red you protect yourself against relapses which are the rule where the blood is thin and impure.
