THE SUNDAY OREGQXIAN. PORTLAND, MAY 2U 1922
ALL CITIES FACE
TRAFFIC PROBLEMS
Survey in East Shows Sema
phores Here Out of Date.
ARM SYSTEM IS BEST
Speediest Kesults Found Obtained
Where Officers Dm ploy Their
' Hands and Smiles.
BY JAMES D. OLSON
, Of Oregonian City Staff.
CHICAGO, May 20. (Special.)
One-way arteries, overhead sema
phores. human semaphores and speedy
handling of traffic are the features
of modern traffic systems in vogue
in the cities of the east.
Handling1 of traflift presents the
greatest problem that confronts the
police bureaus of the various cities.
According to the traffic experts in
tha east, innovations are almost
monthly occurrences and one must In
deed b an expert to keep in touch
with the changes.
Th obsolete semaphore, officially
discarded In Portland by edict of the
eltr council several times but still
. In, use throuph the wish of the Port
land traffic department, is seen in
but few eastern cities.
Few Sen In Washington.
True, one does see a few of this
typ of signals in Washington, D. C.,'
tnd in Philadelphia, but in both of
these cities they are simply being
sed until they can be replaced by a
more modern system.
Chicago, despite the fact that its
traffio engineers feel that they are
vrot up to the latest methods In mov
ng tho stream of hundreds of thou
sands of automobiles on each street
hi tho loop district each day, deserves
the credit for moving its traffic more
speedily than in any place where the
runt volume Is handled, except, per
fc&ps, on Fifth avenue In New York.
Fifth avenue traffic is moved with
es confusion and with best results
than In any place In the world, ac-cordlng-to
unanimous opinion of traf
Ific experts. But the handling of traf
fic on this busy artery cannot be used
as an example for any city, let alone
Portland, except, perhaps, Chicago,
where It might well be applied to
Michigan avenue.
Overhead Signals Vittd.
The Fifth avenue traffic is moved
J)y overhead signals, a yellowish light
indicating clear passage for the Fifth
avenue traffic, a red signal halting
all traffic and a green signal per
mitting the crosstown traffic to pass.
While the Overhead signals result
tn the easy but slow moving of all
Fifth avenue traffic and this traffic
is so dense, that some extraordinary
method is necessary to properly
handle It, it is noticeable that traffic
men, unincumbered by traffic sema
phores, are on the- ground speeding
up th& traffic by using their arms
und hands and at the same time giv
ing assistance to the pedestrian traf
fic that many times seems to become
bewildered by the very denseness of
traffic on this great artery.
Police Use Arms.
In Philadelphia, on the great ave
nue of that city. Broad street, there
are a few of the semaphores that
are seen in Portland. But in other
parts of the city where traffic is con
stant and continuous the police offi
cers handling the streams of cars are
dependent only upon their arms and
without a doubt the traffic . moves
much faster than it does on Broad
treet.
-In Washington a few of the dis
credited semaphores are used, but
careful survey of the traffic situation
in the nation's capital proves that
traffic moves much more rapidly when
the well-trained traffic officers make
of themselves human semaphores.
After careful study gf traffic con
ditions in the east one comes to the
conclusion that radical changes must
be made in the Portland traffic situa
tion. First, the present semaphores must
be discarded, at least so far as general
use Is concerned. This will prove
more difficult to the officers, it is
true, and they will be required to
utilize a whistle system, as is used
throughout the east as well as in
many of the large middle west and
western cities.
Officers Must Be Trained.
Next, the traffic officers of Port
Isnd must be trained to move traffic
more speedily than is the case at
present, and do it with a smile. With
all tho traffic that New York has to
contend, I failed to' locate one officer
who was not .courteous to the foot
passengers In their journey across
any part of New York
In the third place, the human sem
aphores should be provided in Port
land for the principal street corners.
and if this s done the officers should
be placed on a fairly high platform
and equipped with whistles to be used
jn a system which could be explained
to the. publl-3.
All Should Know Code.
Vehloular and pedestrian traffic
alike should be conversant with the
traffio code and should be trained to
llow It.
If this is done Portland will gain
fame for the handling of its traffic.
And as proof that the eastern system
Is easy to adopt, one In Portland has
to do nothing more than to drop down
to Front and Madison streets any
night between 5 and 6 o'clock and
observe. Officer Tyler, and how this
officer, with a smile on his face,
moves traffio with phenomenal ra
pidity. STATE SUIT THROWN OUT
Error in Service of Papers Is
Cause for Action.
TACOMA, Wash., May 20. (Spe
cial.) On motion by attorneys for
tho Pioneer Mining & Ditch company,
of which Jafet Lindeberg was for
merly president, the suit of John P.
Duke, state supervisor of banking,
was dismissed in the federal court
here by Judge Cushman today.
It waa shown that the papers were
served on the officers of the firm in
the state of Washington and the com
pany has no business in this state.
It Is expected a new suit will be filed
Jn Nevada, where the company was
Incorporated.
In the suit Supervisor Duke sought
to collect on a J60.000 note held by
the defunct Scandinavian-American
Bank of Tacoma.
SCHOOL LOSES TO CUPID
Miss Antonia Patzelt, Graduate of
Monmouth, Weds.
, MONMOUTH, Or.. May 20.-l(Spe-elal.)
The teaching profession has
lost to Cupid again. The school-room
arees tt Alias Antonia Patzelt came
abruptly to a close this week by her
marriage to Frank H. Bartholomew
at St. David's Episcopal church in
Portland Thursday.
Miss Patzelt was a popular member
of the December, 1921, graduating
class at the normal. A few days ago
her friends "smelt a mouse" when
telegrams and long-distance calls
from The Dalles, where she t was
teaching, came for Mr. Wiley, super
intendent of schools at The Dalles,
who was on his way to Monmouth to
select teachers. Mr. Wiley engaged
one more teacher than he had planned,
and hurried back to forestall any
further breaks from the ranks. ;i
Mr. and Mrs. Bartholomew left
Thursday evening for Kansas City.
T
DENIAL MADE THAT VICTORY
REPUDIATES PRESIDENT
Pcnnsylvanian Declares He Ex
pects to See Chief Executive
Renominated.
THE OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, D. C, May 20. Wide
spread publication in the east today
of an interview by Gifford Pinchot,
denying that his nomination for gov
ernor of Pennsylvania was a repudia
tion of the Harding administration,
came as a distinct setback to Harding
critics.
Mr. Pinchot expressed the belief
that the next republican national
convention will give President Hard
ing a unanimous renomination ana
declared he did not care what the
democratic newspapers say. He said:
'During the campaign I repeatedly
expressed my belief that no one coma
succeed as governor of Pennsylvania
under present circumstances by play
ing a lone hand. Being the candi
date of the republican party, I have
already begun to put that belief into
nractice. In addition to numerous
consultations held before I left Phil
adelphia, I have arranged for a num
ber of similar conferences, which will
take place at Milford.
"I do not care what tne democratic
newspapers say. Tney are oniy try
ing to make trouble. I shall not com
ment upon their efforts to breed dis
sension in the ranks of the republican
party.
'I have said several times since last
Tuesday that my victory would mean
a solidarity of the party in this state
in the fall and should not give tne
opposition party any cause for re
joicing. I say that again. I have not
given a thought yet to the next meet
ing of the republican state committee
and, of course, I think it is a lime
too early for me to be thinking of
the state chairman, the national com
mittee or the attorney-general.
'Some people are even discussing
mv nrobable action as neaa oi ine
Pennsylvania delegation to the next
national convention, provided I am
elected governor. They are linking
this gossip with what they have
chosen to term my possible presiden
tial aspirations. If -I do get to the
convention as the head of the Penn
sylvania delegation I expect to see
just one event the unanimous re
nomination of President Harding.'!

WORK OF HIS WIFE
State Is Stumped Askinp
Women for Votes.
OTHER WIVES AWAKENED
Males of Statesmen Realize Neces
sity of Campaigning or Being
Hitched to Lame Ducks.
BY CAROLYNANCE.
(OopjTis-ht. 1922, by The Oreftonian.)
WASHINGTON, D. C May 20.
(Special.) Wives of statesmen, both
frivolous social butterflies and the
timid, shrinking domestic drudges,
are warned that unless they get out
and actively aid in their husbands'
political campaigns they are quite apt
to become the wives of lame ducks.
Thoy are etlll blinking over the
spectacular manner in which Mrs.
Gifford- Pinchot helped her husband
achieve an astounding triumph over
a powerful ring. Only the wife of a
politician can truly understand just
what it was the Pinchots were up
against in Pennsylvania. Mrs. Pin
chot stumped the state asking women
to make her husband the republican
nominee for governor. And what's
more, they did. Even the ring poli
ticians ' conceded that Pinchot's vic
tory was a , "personal triumph" and
that he was able to "capitalize the
enthusiasm of the newly-enfranchised
voters." Women political workers in
every state are pointing to the Pin
chot victory as an example of what
the wife of a politician can accom
plish. Example Held Necessary.
Yon can't expect women to get out
and work for your- husband if you
are not willing to work for him your
self," is the point that women po
litical workers are seeking tactfully
to impress upon wives of politicians.
Women workers are particularly
miffed with the attitude o a wife of
a senator who is up for re-election in
one of the eastern states. Before her
recent marriage the wife was a mem
ber of the cave dweller clan, the very
conservative,-very exclusive old resi
dential eet of the capital made fa
mous by Mark Twain. Inherently op
posed to participation by women in
public life of any form, this senator's
wife has consistently refused to have
anything to do with her husband's
campaign.
Senators' Wives Aghaat.
On the other hand at the last week
ly luncheon of senators' wives in the
marble room of the capitol one of
them announced that she was going
to undertake the "management of her
husband's campaign for re-electioik
this summer. The other senators'
wives were a.ghast at the idea and
flutteringly plied her with hows and
whys and whats. Up until the pres
ent 'time It was thought that the
proper way to "make" a husband was
to engage in social intrigue, angle
about for Invitations that would ad
vance one's social position. Now it is
realized that social position has pre
cious little Influence where politics
are concerned. They are all eager to
help their husbands but are scared
stiff at the prospect of actually par
ticipating in the broil of a political
campaign.
The budding statesman of the fu
ture no doubt will seek a wife who
has the gift of gab that can be
utilized to advantage in a political
campaign. Courses in public speak
ing will be as necessary as household
economics and drawing room man
ners in the "finishing" of the future
wife of a statesman. At anv rate,
women ought to be good at kissing
babies.
British Women More Active.
Since the time of the duchess of
Queensbury, who kissed a butcher in
the heat of her husband's political
campaign, British women have been
far more active in campaign work
than American women. Lady' Astor
during one of her addresses here re
lated how she participated in her
husband's campaign for a seat in the
British house of commons and
stumped Plymouth In his behalf. He
was defeated but the experience Lady
Astor obtained and the impression
she made on the voters made it easier
for her when she herself became a
andldate.-
It is not at all unlikely that Mrs1
Gifford Pinchot will achieve a po
litical office of her own some day.
She Is typically a "woman's woman."
Tall, willowy, with Titian hair and
Queenly type, she satisfies women's
Idea of the esthetic Her ability to
dress up to her type is another trait
that gives women peculiar satisfac
tion. Anyway, she wears colors that
are a perfect blend and yet a perfect
contrast with her hair. Her gowns
are individualistic and striking but
they are never freakish.
Social Position Unquestioned.
Though a woman of wealth and un
questioned social position she has
been keenly interested for a number
of years in the working women and
particularly In the national woman's
trade union league. She was instru
mental In obtaining for them a num
ber of laws that benefit women in
industry, she is a power in the
League of Women Voters, holding the
office of financial chairman.'
Mrs. Harry New also made a num
ber of speeches in behalf of her hus
band's candidacy in Indiana before
the primaries In which her husband
was defeated for renomination. She
entered the campaign too late, how
ever, to be of much help and only
began assisting when it was seen
what powerful inroads Beveridge was
making in Impressing the women
voters.

General Logan at one time or another

Mrs. Medill McCormick, wife of the
senator from Illinois, is one who is
quite capable of helping her husband
in a political campaign. The daugh
ter of Mark Hanna, she was brought
up in an atmosphere of political
strategy. At the present, she has
taken upon herself the burden of
championing the whole republican
congress. She is going about the
country making speeches recounting
the achievements of the present ses

TRDLL-FISH AGAIN PACKED
CAXXERY ON WASHINGTON
SIDE REPORTED BUSY.
Petitions Circulated at Astoria for
Suspension of Enforcement
of Oregon Law,
ASTORIA. Or., May 20. (Special.)
While the canneries on the Washing
ton shore of the river quit taking
troll-caught fish early this week in
accordance with the reported instruc
tions received from the fisheries com
mission in that state, advices re
ce'ved from the north shore today
ere that at least one plant was
again receiving and packing- the sal
mon caught by trollers putside. The
reports also said that troll-caught
fish were being delivered at another
cannery, from where they were being
shipped to the fresh markets in Se
attle. This condition again placed
the packing plants on the Oregon side
of the river under the same handicap
they were under during the first two
weeks of the season.
In ah effort to overcome this han
dicap, petitions were being circulated
today among local general busiiss
and fishing circles, asking the Ore
gon state fish commission to suspend
enforcement of the Oregon anti-troll-ing
law until the open trolling season
begins on July 1. Those advocating
the petition said i that as Washing
ton is enforcing no law or regulation
forbidding bringing of troll-caught
fish into the river, under the fish
eries compact act the Oregon law is
Invalid and if enforced will be placing
a burden on the Oregon packing
plants without affording the protec
tion to the fish which the instigators
of the Oregon act apparently intended.

TULSAi Okla., May 20. Hamlet, in
the person of Oscar Osborne, a high

Garbed in the raiment of the
Danish prince, whose character he
