TITE SUNDAY OHEGONIAX, rORTULND, JANUARY 8. 1922 11 L Candidates Are Mobilizing for Seat in House. GROOMING IN PROGRESS Franklin F. KorcII, Walter Lynn and Maurice Crumpacker Are Coveting McArthnr Toga. Probably the first one to announce his candidacy for the republican nom ination for representative of the third congreshional district will be Frank lin F. Korell. He Is Just about reaay to "ishoot. Not all the fireworks in the pre- primary campaign will be confined to the gubernatorial oontest, for there is quite a stir being: made already over the congressional election. There promises to be three or four, if not more, aspirants in the republican pri maries, while in the democratic ranks there will be at least one. Mr. BIcArttanr Head Llat. Those prominently mentioned In the republican column are C. N. McAr thur. Incumbent; Mr. Korell, Maurice Crumpacker, Walter i.ynn, uargre Leonard and J. J. Crossley. Others may come to the surface with, the Dasslner of time. Of those mentioned, the names of Mr. Leonard and Mr. Crossley can be oratched off the list, for Mr. Cross ley has definitely and positively stated that he will not run, and close friends of Mr. Leonard eay that the latter will not be a candidate. How over, both have been in the "men tioned" class for the last six months. Incumbent Seeks Re-election. Representative McArthur, who Is republican whip in the house at Washington, and who frequently pre sides over that body, will seek re election. Mr. McArthur has not made a formal announcement to that effect. but it la common knowledge that he plans to submit his case to the elec torate of the third district in May. He was in Portland during: the holidays but did not discuss politics. Mr. Mc Arthur came west as part of the escort for the body of a California representative, then came to visit his relatives in Portland for a few days. Late in the week he -was taken ill and is still confined to his room in the Portland hotel. Mr. McArthur always haB opposi tion In the primaries and always has won, so he probably is expecting a rival for his seat, as usual. Mr. Korell Nucses Busy Bee. Mr. Korell has been entertaining the idea for a month or six weeks and since the adjournment of the special session of the legislature, he has arrived at a decision. He says that he expects to make announce ment of his candidacy in the near future. , Mr. Korell served in the 1921 regular and special sessions as a member of the Multnomah delegation. He is said to have been offered the support of several organizations, but explains that he has not sought nor solicited the support of any organiza tion nor has he made nor been asked any pledge in return for support. He says that he Is his own man. During the special session of the legislature and since then Mr. Korell has been active in studying the situ ation and has come to the conclusion that he has a prospect of success. He is virtually committed. Mr. Crumpacker Undecided. Maurice Crumpacker, recently ap pointed deputy district attorney, has not determined on a course of action. He may run and he may not; there is plenty of time for him to look into conditions, he says. The Crumpacker boom had its In ception among the ex-service men last summer, for Mr. Crumpacker was one of the principal authors of the sol diers' bonus bill, enacted at the reg ular session of 1921 and referred to the people and approved last spring. Although a resident of Portland many years, Mr. Crumpacker passed his boy hood at Washington. D. C, where his father, a member of congress, was one of the pioneer progressive repub licans. Labor Grooms Mr. Lynn. Walter Lynn, member of the Mult nomah, delegation in the legislature and recently a candidate for appoint ment as postmaster of Portland, is being; groomed for the congressional race. Whether he will enter as the candidate of organised labor is not tatedk but he was originally elected to the legislature as a labor repre sentative. 60 far the only democrat who is discussed with reference to the nomi nation In the 3d district is Elton .Watkins, ex -assistant United States attorney and former president of the Jackson Democratic club. As the democratic party Is split into factions which mix as thoroughly as oil and water, it is within the cards that Mr. 'Watkins may find opposition In the primaries, a situation , which he re fuses to view with alarm. TO BE T. W. C A. MEETING TUESDAY TO BEAR REPORTS History of Achievements of Associa tion to Be Recounted and Growth to Be Cited. Linked closely to the history of Portland during the past 22 years has been the history of the Young Wom en's Christian association. A review of the achievements for the past year will be given on Tuesday night at the annual dinner and meeting to be held at the association headquarters at 6:30 o'clock. A large attendance is anticipated. The various department chairmen will be present and their reports will be summarized In that of the general secretary, Mrs. Norman Christie. Before the city association became a distinct organization there had been association work to some extent in the colleges and district work, but no real city organization except in Seat tle, and that was far from strong. Now the Y. W. C. A. all over the northwest Is strong, and In Portland it is doing a fine and effectual work. The first movement for a city asso ciation was started In the fall of 1900 and opened its doors on the sixth floor of the Macleay building, at Fourth and Washington streets, in April of 1901. They had a living room, reading room, dining room, kitchen and small office. Miss Alma Hunt was general secretary, assisted by Miss Helena Saxton. Miss Saxton remained with the association for 17 years and for many years was busi ness secretary. There were only these two secretaries at that time. Mra Cyras Polpa was the instigator of REPJJD CMS CaLL of congress the city association movement here nd was temporary president for a ihort time. Among the first board of directors were: Mrs. Jacob Kamm, Mrs. W. II. Beharrell. Miss Carrie A. Holbrook, president; Mrs. I. H. Amos, Mrs. Sarah Evans. Mrs. H. W. Stone. Mrs. Dell Stewart, Mrs. W. J. Honey man, second vice-president; Mrs. James F. Railing, Miss Harriet Moore house, Dr. Sarah Whiteside, Mrs. Charles Basey. Mrs. James T. Gray, Mrs. A. H. Tanner, Mrs. Gustave John son, Mrs. F. W. Berry. At the Lewis and Clark fair the association had the most popular lunenroom on the grounds. In 1903 the association was moved to Sixth and -Oak streets and added a boarding department to Its other ac tivities. In 1908 the association was moved to Its present location. At first there were only four stories, but later two other stories were added. Miss Carrie A. Holbrook was president of the association for 17 years. The present board member are. Mrs. George F. Wilson, president; Mrs. William C. Alvord. Mrs. I. H. Amos, Mrs. William Beharrell. Mrs. Chrlss Bell, Mrs. Roy Bishop, Mrs. Forest Fisher, Mrs. R. S. Farrell, Mrs. A. S. Moody, Mrs. Charles A. Morden, Mrs. John Pearson, Miss Adelia Prichard, Mrs. Charles T. Kamm, Mrs, C. J. Smith, Mrs. A. L. Veaxle; Mrs. F. M. Warren, Mrs. Frank Wllmot, Mrs. J. W. Fowler, Mrs. J. A. Byerly, Mrs. E. S. Collins, Mrs. F. A. Douty, Mra W. N. Everett. POSTOFFICE NEW CENTER PORTLAND CLEARING HOUSE FOR OREGON BUSINESS. Washington Department's Work in Administering Over Smaller Of fices Rapidly Supplanted. The Portland postoffice is rapidly supplanting the department at Wash ington as the headquarters for han dling minor departmental matters in the administration of the second, third and fourth-class postoffices of Oregon. Under orders recently re ceived minor extensions in carrier service, adjustment of office hours, interpretations of minor rules and regulations and matters of salaries, appointment of employes and promo tions will be sent to the Portland of fice Instead of to Washington. Postmaster Jones will pass upon the matters or refer them on to Washington as the case demands. The system is expected to cut much of the red tape and reduce the time us ually required to take up matters through official channels. The plan is expected to relieve the department of a great deal of routine business and thus speed up the action on mat ters of major importance which are stil referred to it direct. It will not doprlve postmasters of any of their present authority. A great deal of work will devolve upon the Portland postoffice, which already handles sup- piles for the third and four-class of fices of the state. Newly appointed Oregon postmast ers are beginning to come in for a few days' Instruction in the Portland postoffice as a school. They are In structed in the various duties re quired in routine work and other matters of postoffice administration. CITY AND COUNTRY WORK IS CONSIDERED. Association Members Discuss School Nursing, Tuberculosis and Child Welfare. The first mid-year sectional con ference of the Oregon Public Health Nurses' association was held in room H, central library, last Friday. There was an attendance of about 40 at both the morning and afternoon ses sions. The association plans to hold a similar conference for the nurses In the southwestern end of the state some time early In February. . With the exception of papers by Dr. Frederick Strieker, state health officer, whose subject was "The Con trol of Contagion." and Mrs. Robert Dieck, president of the Portland Visiting Nurse association, the pro gramme was made up of short talks end spirited round-table discussions by the nurses themselves. School nursing, tuberculosis, child welfare and industrial nursing were the phases of the work discussed. The afternoon session also considered the general phases of both county and city nursing work. Miss Elnora Thomson, president of the Oregon Public Health Nurses' association, opened each session and Miss Marion Crowe, superintendent of the Visiting Nurse association, pre sided es chairman for the morning. Miss Jane C Allen, director, bureau of public health nursing and child hygiene, presided in the afternoon. Scio Man to Take Office. ALBANY, Or., Jan. 7. (Special.)- D. C.
