By John E. Lathrop. Washington. Deo. 10. Senator La Folletts of Wisconsin, Jn answer to ' Tha Journal's request for a statement as to the proposal to Induce certain Ore r gon legislators to repudiate their "pledges under i Statement No. 1. said: "As I understand the Oregon primary ' law and statement No. 1. an lnttma - tlon from me or any other person of a possibility that any Statement No. 1 ; legislator would break his pledge would be an Insult to the honor of the mem- bers of the Oregon legislative assem . bly." The senators In further conversation ald: "Of course, the Oregon senatorial contest Is a matter for the people of : that state to settle without Interfer ence from any- outside source, but since apparently, efforts have been made to induce legislators to repudiate their pledges, an since I have been asked for an opinion, the above statement conveys my views." It Is believed here that, now that it lias been demonstrated that the attempt to procure Interference by the national administration and the incoming ad ministration has failed, efforts will cease In Washington and will hereafter be confined to Oregon. I learned today that Fulton's mana gers had tried to induce Senator Borah of Idaho to express an opinion that leg islators should repudiate pledges, but that he answered: "I cannot do that; 1 could not advocate such a course." rehigTI foreigii trade Commercial Bodies Fall In With Straus Flan of Team Work. (Special DIcpatch to The Journal.) Wanlilngton, Dec. 10. The fourth and lawt of the series of commercial and indiiHtrlal conferences that have helped to make the present week a notable one in the national capital was held today, when the National Council of Commerce met to elect officers, adopt bylaws and perfect a plan to. be., followed by the Council in its ""future work.- The ses sions were held in the offices of the department of commerce and labor and were attended by eminent representa tives of commercial organizations In virtually every state of the Union. The National Council of Commerce, which was inaugurated by Secretary Strang a year ago, has aroused consid erable interest throughout the country, about 60 commercial bodies from the leading; cities of the United States hav ing joined the council since its first meeting., Secretary Straus has become more and more convinced of the prac tical value of this progressive organisa tion, not only to the commercial activ ities throughout the country, which can through the council be constantly in formed of trade opportunities abrd, but to the various departments of the government connected with the busi ness world. One of the features of the movement Is the establishment of a permanent bu reau of ti council in this city In charge of a capable man, who can keep In close touch with the government departments that hfive to do with commercial af fairs and advise the various commercial Interests of Important matters that arise from time to time and affect their welfare. Similar bureaus have existed for some time in uermany, Knglana, Krance and other European countries and have been found to be of Incalcul able value In promoting their foreign commerce. LIMIT NUMBER OF SALOONS Liquor Men Propose a Popu lation Basis Denounce the Dry Elements. (United Press Leased Wirt.) Washington. Dec. 10. Although they Stated their belief that the anti-saloon propaganda had spent Its strength and the prohibition "wave" was receding, the members of the National Liquor league at their closing session yester day agreed that It would bo to the best Interests of the liquor trndo to limit the number of saloons according to popula tion. Resolutions were adopted declaring that the "Industry has been over legis lated, over abused and over taxed In the furtherance of a creed or cult that is basically un-American,- and declar ing also that "the Anti-Saloon league is a menace to good government, the qui etude of communities and vested prop erty rights, and exists for no other pur pose than to provide occupation and revenue for the members of a close cor poration by the processes of perpetual agitation."

Teal were entertained at dinner last night by Senator Bourne at his apartments at Stonelelgh court. Thomas R. Shlpp. secretary of the Na tional Conservation congress, said to day: "Chamberlain' plan Is ideal, in that it meets the demands of the present sit uation and provides amply for all future time. It has tha unreserved indorse ment of the national conservation forces." Chamberlain's address before the Na tional Rivers and Harbors congress conveyed cordial approval of the policy which has been urged for several years, favoring bonds if necessary to Im prove all streams and waterways which are potentially navigable. The national capital is eating- red Oregon apples today, 20 boxes having been distributed by Teal among tha newspaper correspondents and the dele gates to the rivers and harbors con ference.

Governor Chamberlain made 'an ad dress, at yesterday afternoon's session of the rivers and harbors congress in whicu he said the people ahould demand from congress a bond issue, to meet the costs of waterways improvements. said there were signs of opposition to the movement on account of the alleged deficiency In the treasury Though he eould not speak for other sections, hei would pay unhesitatingly with refer-1 ence to Oregon that neither the sen ators nor the. representatives would dare to disregard the demands of the people of the Pacific coast for greater appropriations for waterways improve ments. To oppose the policy, he said, would mean political exile. Bills Tor Oregon and the Coast.
