RAILROAD DIVORCE
Mayor of San Francisco
Urges Public to Act.
BIG DANGER IS SEEN
forschool building' bonds to the
amount of $3,000,000 and the II,
000,000 tax levy , for maintenance of
school activities during the coming
year.
Arguments for both appropria
tions had been made to voters
through numerous channels and the
yellow ticket of the so-called pa
triotic societies also indorsed the
bonds and levy.
On the yellow ticket, too, was P. S.
Pickering, an east side grocer, who
sought the" chair of A. C, Newlll,
chairman of the board, and a di
rector of considerable educational
experience. -
In contrast to the probable suc
cess of the school bonds and tax
levy yesterday" was the defeat of a
Prosperity of City and of Cali
fornia Declared Dependent oa
. Road as Now Constituted.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 17. (Spe
cial.) The unmerglng of the South
ern Pacific and Central Pacifio rail
roads, ordered by a recent decision
of the supreme court of the United-f
8tatos, is a menace to the public
good of all of the people of Califor
nla, In the opinion of Mayor James
Rolph Jr. The mayor made a
weeping appeal 'today to all com
mercial interests of the city to op
pose this court mandate.
The people of California and of
Ban Francisco feel," said. Mayor
Rolph, "that the recent decision of
the supreme court requiring the dis
memberment of th central Pacifio
and the Southern Pacific in fact.
requiring the destruction of this
system as systems is a serious
menace to the public good."
Mayor Rolph -declared these two
companies constitute the main in
struments of transportation for San
Francisco, and anything that effects
the weakening or destruction of
them is an Injury to "our people of
the most serious character."
People Urged to Act.
The way out. said Mayor Rolph,
is for the people to protest against
the dissolution and obtain action
through the interstate commerce
commission, which has the author
ity -under the law to permit separate
railroad lines to comDine for serv
ice.
Mayor Rolph's statement follows
In part:
"California is dependent for its
prosperity on the adequacy of trans
portation. It is the farthest re
moved from the markets of the
world of any part of the United
States, while its soil produces more
that requires distant transportation
than any other part of our country.
The city of San Francisco as the
commercial metropolis of the coast
is most vitally affected in the fore
going particulars. '
"For these reasons the people of
California and the' people of San
Francisco, particularly, feel that the
recent decision of the supreme court,
requiring the dismemberment of the
Central and Southern Paci&c sys
tems in fact, requiring the destruc
tion of these systems, as systems
Is a serious menace to the public
good.
Instrument Main One.
"These two companies constitute
our main instrument of transporta
tion. Anything that effects the
weakening or destruction of that
system is an Injury to our people of
the most serious character.
"The sentiment of the people of
our state was demonstrated some
years ago when the question of dis
membering this railroad system was
before the public and strong com
mittees of our citizens was sent to
Washington to express our, disap
proval. "A railroad company is merely an
agent, performing a service to the
public through private means the
owners being trustees for the public
and such trustees being subject to
strict regulation by the federal gov
ernment and state governments.
- Efficiency Held Needed,
"While it Is recognized that the
government control is for the pur
poses of regulation of these great
agencies. It is nevertheless neces
sary that these agents be permitted
to do their work efficiently and
economically through the proper
latitude of organization and co
operation. Certainly tearing this
great system to pieces would, un
der no conceivable theory, make for
better service or cheapening of the
oost to the public.
"This Is not a case fit a new com
pany entering the field to compete
with another company, where each
company engaging In the competi
tion is complete In itself. This is
the case of a system built up during
BO years as a single unit; being
separated, not along Industrial lines,
based on efficiency, but along legal
lines resting on technicalities.
"This can only mean great injury
to the proprietors, destruction to
the system and vast injury to the
people who are dependent on this
great system for regular shipping
service. This is the very reverse of
what the government of the United
States found itself compelled to do
as a war measure.
Snippers Control Routing.
"As the matter stands, the ship
pers control the routing of their
freight and have done so for many
years.
"That a Tailroad should prosper,
it is not that It should please the
shipper. It would seem that before
any radical action should be taken
under the supreme court decision
that would cripple a great public
service, measures should be taken
by all commercial and industrial
bodies throughout California to im
press upon the interstate commerce
commission the desire of our people
that permission be granted for con
tinuing this great service which is
essential to our welfare. For the
foregoing reasons, as mayor of the
city of San Francisco which, to
gether with all California, feels its
welfare jeopardized, I am offering
this suggestion.
lis "Jt f
F. S. Pickering, elected member of
board of education.
MR. PICKERING IN LEAD
(Continued From F!rst Pape. )
proposed three-mill levy for an en
larged school building programme
at last year's election. This levy
was the beginning of what was
planned to be a five-year building
campaign whereby $5,000,000 was to
be raised in that period. The vote
for the levy for building purposes
was 6059 and against it 8398.
While the vote of citizens for di
rectors June 18, 1921, the last school
election, numbered 22,826, there was
but a total vote of 9917, June 19,
1920, when the required levy for car
rying on the functions of the school
system was approved by almost a
two-to-one vote.
It is the proposal of the school
board to use the $3,000,000 in bonds
to build two new high schools and
additions to two other high schools,
as well as erect five new grade
schools and add to four grade
schools, doing away with five old
combustible buildings.
High schools, as Indicated, would
involve the expenditure of $1,055,000
and grade schools, as outlined, will
mean the expenditure of $1,539,000,
while equipment for both high and
grade schools will cost $406,000.
The $1,000,000 tax levy will be
usd to build additions to four grade
schools, costing $230,000; restore
suspended school activities at a cost
of $165,000; to provide for nextJ
vear's increase in school facilities;
involving an expenditure oi jui,
000; and to avoid repetition of the
1922 deficit paid from insurance and
other funds of the district, which
calls for the appropriation of
$304,000. ,

Strong to Permit Prosecution ,
of Electric Company."
NEW YORK, June 17. Samuel
Untermyer , took . another fling ' at
Attorney-General Daugherty today
in a statement issued as be stepped
aboard the Majestic for a vacation
in Europe.
In connection with the attorney
general's announced programme for
prosecuting war fraud .cases, the
oounsel for the Lock-wood commit
tee charged that because the ."'Mor
gan influence la too strong to with
stand, . Mr. Daugherty simply will
not budge" toward prosecuting the
General Eleotrlc company for the
monopoly that committee alleges it
holds over the electrio light bulb'
business of the nation.
"If Attorney-General Daugherty
shows as much organizing ability
and desire to punish powerful war
fraud offenders as I have experi
enced in the 25 or more anti-trust
cases in which we have been vainly
trying to get action from him for
more than a year, we shall soon
have plenty of - horn tooting and
other forms of publicity and cam
ouflage under cover of which a few
little fellows may be crucified and
every really influential offender
will slide out under cover of the
noise," said Mr. Untermyer.'
"Mr. Daugherty is a grand past
master in that art. I nave had and
am still having my experiences with
him. If the public wants to see him
in action in the perfection of his
skill in protecting one big inter
est the fruit of long experience as
a lobbyist I commend to its study
his .performance in the General
Electric case, in which I have for
six months been vainly trying to
get prosecution." . - -

last year, when 22,826 citizens- voted
for school directors, while some es

This was believed due to. consider
able publicity given the . campaign

Of course Mayor Baker was in the
crowd and happened along just In
time to make a little speech, like he
always does.
"Let me introduce the greatest
mayor a town ever had," shouted
Chief Jenkins ttaoiugih a din of
cheers;
"Huh! He has to say that in order
to hold his job," remarked- the
mayor.
There were more cheers. The
mayor continued:
You know, folks, before I was
elected mayor and becam commis
sioner of police, I thought police
men were the bunk." Those were his
exact words. "But since I have be
come Intimately acquainted with
them; have learned to know their
moods and the difficulties of their
tasks; since I have had occasion to
direct their energies, i found out
the truth. Now I know they are the
bunk."
The Minneapolis band pays its
fare through a police ball game.
Each copper sells tickets. Most of the
proceeds go into the police insurance
fund, but enough was deducted for

usual pleasure to hear her play.
Her Bach's "Gigue" has uplift and
her picture of the "Dance of the

is a whirling cloud-of-dust episode,
with Arabs as actors.
The "Hungarian Etude" (Mac-
Dowell) lived in new brilliance, arid
the Rubinstein "Stoccato Etude"
was quite interesting as a picture
of action. One of the best-played
numbers of the entire recital, be
cause of its .simplicity and swelling
beauty- of lovely tone color, was
Dream of Love" (Liszt), in which
the melody in the bass had a noble,
poetic message. "Polonaise" (Liszt)
was a song of triumph, with a pic
ture of a war horse in action. Miss
Schoop, who was cordially received,
placed, Exquisitely, as her two extra
numbers, "Country Gardens" (Grain
ger) and "Butterfly Etude" (Chopin).
Otto Wedemeyer, baritone, was in
good voice and sang with superb
style and interpretation two of

SOUND EDLFEHS COMING
PORTLAND AND SEATTLE
WOMEN TO CLASH.
Intercity Match to Be Arranged
as Home-and-Home Series -to
Begin Friday.'' V
SEATTLE. Wash., June ft. (Spe
cial.) All-Portland against all
Seattle In- a women's' golf ' team
match is what is planned for the
latter part oi this week, as an
nounced by Mias Helen Farrell, team
captain at the Seattle- golf club, who
has been selected to lead the Seat-
tleites down to the banks of the
Willamette. . , -
Principally, the team will be com
posed, of Seattle golf club and Earl
ington golf and country club mem
bers, as the tentative plana disclose.
It Is expected v the team strength
will be between 12 and 15 members.
The match will constitute the first
half of a horae-and-home affair be
tween the two cities, the Portlanders
to repay the visit in the fall. There
is no trophy put up for the compe
tition as yet, but this probably will
come along in time about the time
that it is popularly grasped that
here is a real intercity scrap for
golfing honors. -
That which gave the "proposed
team match a start was the visit
hers last winter of a team from the
Waverley country, club, a visit that
was the outcome of the good time
had by all at the 1921 Pacific North
west Golf association tournament
The Portland women came and with
them came thu only snow storm of
the season. It will be recalled they
played indoors at the Seattle golf
club. -
But the idea has. grown bigger
since that first attempt to start the
team matches. , Portland golf club
has some fino women players, on
the one side, and Earlington has
some splendid women.- Players, on
the other side. So It was a very
simple matter to decide upon a team
match- upon a much broader scale
than originally was designed. The
first half o the match will be
played this week. Friday will, in
all probability, be the day finally
agreed upon. - -
