SITUATION NOT CHANGED
I7. S. Vessels, In Port, Idle During
Week, Awaiting Outcome of
Xeutral Hall Parley.
Committeemen representing the
lon-gahoremen's union and operators
of shipping bnard steamers ended
their sessions yesterday afternoon in
deadlock, falling to agree on a neu
tral hiring place, the employment of
union and nonunion men alike, the
selection by the employer of superin
tending or gang foreman and the list
ing of men for work.
That leaves the strike situation as
It was previous to the assent of ship
ping board operators last Monday
night to abide by the dictation of the
shipping board as to handling cargo
witn longshoremen hired in accord
ance with, the finding of the Oregon
state board of conciliation. Shipping
board vessels In port nave been idle
during the week, awaiting the out
come of the neutral hall conference.
Meeting Held on Friday.
The committee ' was made up of
J. "W. Holman and Jerry Hurley of the
longshoremen's union, and Earl .C.
Hamilton and G. H. Bowker, steve
dores, as representatives of the ship
ping board operators, which include
the Columbia Pacific Shipping com.
pany. General Steamship corporation
and Swayne & Hoyt. A meeting was
held Friday morning and an adjourn
ment taken until afternoon, when a
request was made of the state board,
members of wtilch were present, to
furnish the committee with a written
definition of its findings. That was
ready when yesterday's deliberations
were resumed, resulting in a failure to
agree In the afternoon.
The members of the committee from
the shipping board operators drafted
a report to the state board late yes
terday, setting forth the results of
their efforts as follows:
We, the undersigned representatives of
the operators of shipping board vessels in
this port, beg to report that we net In
session with two members of the Interna
tional Longshoremen's association, local
38-8, of Portland, Messrs. J. w. Holman
and J. Hurley, on Friday, June 2, and
Saturday, June 8, In an endeavor to es
tablish and operate a neutral bureau tor
the furnishing of longshore labor as rec
ommended in your official findings of
May 22. lii'22.
At the first meeting we were unable to
interpret your findings In the same light
as interpreted by the two members of the
longshoremen's union and therefore asked
for your Interpretation as to the manner
or operating the bureau and distributing
the men.
ITpon receipt of your interpretation
this morning we again met with the two
representative of the International Long
shoremen's association, and according to
your official recommendations we endeav
ored to proceed with the formation of a
neutral bureau to which any experienced
man might apply and register for long
shore work in accordance with the policy
outlined by your board.

members positively refused to agree to

f their union refused to congregate with
any waterfront workers other than those
wh have worked through their hall in
the past. They also took the position that
registration could be accomplished by the
furnishing of lists of names, addresses and
telephone numbers made up by tbemselvttf.
4. The International Longshoremen's
association members insisted upon the
right of selection or rejection by the com
mittee of superintending and gang fore
men, while your board has conceded the
right of selection or rejeectton of emptovea
to the employer. The International Long
shoremen's association members further in
sisted that they would not pass as effi
cient any man with whom they were
not personalty acquainted. It was our
contention that the only true test of ef
ficiency te by actual trial on the job.
and further that we are just as well
qualified to pass upon the efficiency of
any man on this waterfro-nt as the other
two members of the committee. Wo fur
ther hold that, the selection of superin
tending and gang foremen must ret with
th-a employing stevedore, especially as his
work is performed on a contract basis.
and we do not feel that it Is within the
jurisdiction of this committee to dictate
to the cenractlng stevedore what men he
nhatl employ as foremen, we never ques
tioned the right of men to bargain, either
separately or collect iveiy.
Blame Fat on Others.
6. The International Longshoremen's as
sociation positively refused to agree to any
method of employment which would mix
fither union and non-union men in any
gang r union and non-union gangs on the
umt ship, whereas your findings are very
clear in stating that the bureau has the
right to employ from any hall, group or
association it may elect. We contend that
this position of the International Long
shoremen's association members Is directly
contrary to the instruction of your board,
which do not countenance any discrimina
tion between any group or class of labor,
aiid it is our firm belief that such grouping
of either union or non-union men In ganve
rr on Individual ships would entirely nullify
the principal purposes of the plan of em
ployment recommended by your board.
. The International Longshoremen's
Association members of this committee pos
itively insisted that no other men could
work upon shipping board ihlpa than mem
bere) oX their union or men who hare

orketf through their hall in the past and
who are !n harmony with their associa
tion. This is to ail intents and purposes
nettling more nor less than a closed shop,
which your board has ruled aeaiast.
As a last resort, in an effort to resume
work on the shipping hoard vessels now In
lort and due to arrive tomorrow, we of
fered as a temporary expedient to allow
the two International Longshoremen's as
sociation members of this committee to fur
nish two gangs of men of their own choos
ing, without Question as to where these
.nen were secured, we also to furnish two
gangs for the same vessel, but the Inter
pational Longshoremen's association mem
bers positively rejected this offer.
In view of the foregoing facts we feel
that any furthar deliberations of this com
mittee would be futile and a waste of val
uable time.
Otherwise the strike situation af
forded no changes yesterday. Steve
dores paid off non-union longshore
men at their places of business and
paid there was no indication of a
falling off in the supply of workers.
As to the deadlock between the
dommltteemen, it was pointed out
they had not resigned from their re
sponsibilities and further effort might
be undertaken to. carry out the
board's findings.
STATUE BASE OPPOSED
CITY CLCB URGES COUNCIL TO
CANCEL CONTRACT.
Design Declared Disapproved by A.
Phimister Proctor, Sculptor
of Roosevelt Monument.
Rejection of the design selected by
the cfty as a base for the Roosevelt
-fequestrlan statue donated to Portland
by Dr. Henry Waldo Coe was urged
in resolutions adotrted by the board
of governors of the City club and
transmitted to the city council yes
terday by Robert W. Osburn, execu
tive secretary.
Although the contract for the base
already has been let to the Blaesing
Granite company, the resolution urged
that the contract be not let. Should
the city council heed the resolution,
it will be necessary to cancel the
contract, which might involve he city
in litigation.
The City club pointed out that A.
Phimister Proctor," sculptd of the
statue in question, has declared that
the use of the base chosen would be
a "terrible mistake."
Because the sculptor disapproves
of the base, the officials of the club
feel that the city should follow his
recommendation.
Creation of a municipal art com
mission to advise and make recom
mendations to the public officials on
all questions of art in Portland was
urged In the same resolution.
City Commissioner Pier, Jin charge
of the park bureau, was not ready
yesterday to make any statement in
regard to the plea.

KILLING RESUMED
N TONG WAR HERE
Chinaman, 70, Is Shot; Mur
derer Escapes.
SIX BULLETS IN BODY
Crocks, t'sed to Shield In Attempt
. at Self-Protection, Pierced
by Four Shells.
War betwen the Bing Kong-Bow
Leong and Hin Sing tongs was re
newed in Portland yesterday when
rrpy Tung, 70, was snot and killed in
stantly, hardly an r-ur after the
major portion of the Chinese residents
of the city had returned from the fu
neral of Sue Kee Lang, wealthy Chi
nese merchant. All Chinatown was
thrown into an uproar by the killing.
The body of Toy was riddled by six
bullets, fired at cli.Be range from a .32
calibre automatic pistol.
Delay In Mting the police probably
was responsible for the escape of the
murderer, and the entire force was
working on a meager description,
furnished in'badly broken English by
Lee Ling, employer of Toy, and mer
chant at 91 North Fourth street,
where the shooting took place. The
slayer was small and wore a blue
cap and a checkered suit.
Proprietor Is in Store.
Lee Ling, proprietor of the place,
was in the retail store on the first
floor. In the basement were working
Toy and Tee Yung, another laborer.
The slayer went into. the store osten
sibly to make a purchase. Lee Ling
said that he had never eeen him
before, but in some way, or on some
excuse not yet explained, the man
reached the basement.
Lee Ling said the next thing he
neara was tne shooting, plenty of it
In a minute Tee Yong went out- the
door fast, giving his employer no ex
planation of his haste. Following hi'n
was the third man. Ling ran down
stairs and tried to rouse Toy by shak
ing him. thereby getting some blood
on his clothes and letting him in for
some fast talking in not quite such
broken English, explaining how the
blood happened to be there.
Policeman Te Sought.
Then, he told the police, he ran
upstairs and out on the street, try
ing to find a policeman. None could
be found, he said, and he finally
made himself understood to a man
who called the police. When the po
lice "arrived they found the body and
some empty pistol cartridges, an au
tomatic pistol and an antiquated
weapon with which Toy Tung ap
parently tried to defend himself.
, His pistol falling hini, Toy evt
dantly tried to shield himself with
some large earthenware crocks by
holding them in front of him. There
were two crocks there. One ihad four
bullet holes in the bottom and the
other had three. '
Toy was known to the police as a
Bing Kong-Bow Leong tong member,
and the police were certain his as
sailant was a Hip Sing. In the last
war the Bing Kong-Bow Leonga fin
ished three ahead and the Hip Sings
have made no retaliation. The reeent
attempt at peace between all local
tongs fell through when the Hip
Sings refused to sign, and the cir
cumstances, said the police, point to
the Hip Sing tong as the perpetrator
of the murder. '

England's Invitation to Inves

RETALIATION IS FEARED
V. S. Commission's Duties to Be
Limited to Gathering Informa
tion for Government.
WASHINGTON. D. C. Juns 8. The
American government has accepted
the invitation of Great Britain to be
represented on the commission which
Is to investigate alleged Turkish
atrocities in Anatolia.
In announcing the decision today,
however, the state department em
phasized that as understood here, the
commission's duties are to be limited
to making an Inquiry into conditions
nurelv for the information of the
governments participating. Tne uniteoi
States, it was said, does not by its
participation assume any further ob
ligation or : enter into any commit
ment. The American government's deci
sion was announced in the following
statement by Secretary Hughes:
On May 15. 1922, a note was re-
ceived from the British ambassador
referring to reports of the renewal of
the deportation of Christians by the
Turkish authorities at Angora and
the alleged atrocities connected
therewith, and communicating a pro
posal of the British government that
American, British, French and Italian
governments should at once depute
carefully selected officers to proceed
to such places in Anatolia as might
best enable them to conduct an ap
propriate investigation.
Retaliation Is Feared.
,In a subsequent memorandum of
Mav 19. the British ambassador Indi
cated that the Turkish deportations
and outrages might lead to retalia
tory action in territory held by the
Greek forces and suggested that the
overnment of the United States
should join In requesting the authori
ties functioning in Greece to permit.
the dispatch of officers to regions
under Greek occupation.
'In answerirur these communica
tions, the secretary of state has said
that the situation of Christian minor
ities in Turkey has enlisted to a
marked degree the sympathies of the
American people and it has been
noted with deep concern that the
work of benevolence and educational
institutions in Turkey has . steadily
been hampered; that the rights which
American citizens have long enjoyed
in Turkey in common with the na
tionals of other powers have often
been disregarded and the property
rights and Interests of Americans and
other foreigners placed in jeopardy.
- Officers to Be Designated.
In view of the humanitarian con
siderations which are involved and of
the desire of this government to have
adequate information through a thor
ough and impartial investigation of
the actual conditions prevailing in
Anatolia, in order that this govern
ment may determine its future policy
in relation to the authorities con
cerned the president is prepared to
designate an officer or officers to
take part in the proposed inquiry.
In informing the British govern
ment of the foregoing the govern
ment of the United States has made
it clear that the proposed action Is
limited in scope to an inquiry to ob
tain accurate data as-to the situation
in Anatolia for the information of the
governments participating therein
and has stated that this government
assumes no further obligation and
enters into no commitment.
"In order to expedite the inquiry It
was at the same time suggested by
this government that the officers
should be designated by the respec
tive governments to institute Inquiry
concurrently into districts respectively-
under rGreek and Turkish occupa
tion and -that these two commissions
upon completion of their investiga
tion should unite in a comprehensive
report"
