MEN TO HAVE HEARING
Mrs. Charles D. Blaney of San Joae, Cal.
San Jose, al., Aug. 9. Mrs. Charles
D. Blaney of this city, who has been
made a member of the Progressive" Na
tional committee with Miss June Add -ami,
Miss Frances Keller and Miss L&na
Qordon was a delegate from California
to the Republican National convention.
She is considered one of the most ag
gressive women In politics in the far
west and was looked upon as a staunch
Republican.
The Portland Chamber of Commerce
telegraphed to Senator Burton, chairman
of the senate sub-committee on com
merce, requesting that action of the
Wilson bill dealing with manning Amer
ican rrterchant marine vessels be de-
frrrl until a committee representing
pacific coast shipping Interests will
have opportunity to present arguments
protesting the bill.
The telepram was sent upon sugges
tion from President M. II. Robblns Jr.
of the San Francisco Chamber of Com
merce, which has already forwarded its
protest. ,
The bill la said to provide that VPn
request Of any citizen the collector of
customs in any port in the states may
cause a muster of a crew of any vessel
at any time and that In the meantime no
clearance Is to be given such vessel.
The shipowners hold that such a law
would give a tremendous latitude so
that anv person could at any time delay
the sailing of a vessel and bring on
a heavy expense to the owner or oper
ators. It Is pointed out that the pro
r.nH low mnld be used very effectively
In tvine ud vessels in case of troupie
between the owners and employes.
FEWER FOREST FIRES
THAN FOR 20 YEARS
The men who travel "the trails In the
government forest reserves and who
range tho mountains where grows some
of the best timber held by Uncle Bam
In Oregon, are reporting the smallest
fire hazard for at least 20 years.
Cooperative effort between the forest
service, the forest rire association and
the state Is held chiefly rsponsibl for
a condition that is expected to prevent
the millions of dollars In Iosros of two
years 6go. At the same time the rang
ers say campers are more careful, in
other words, "better educated" to the
dangers of leaving campflres unextin
guished. These two elements combine
to reduce the fire hazard to a minimum.
No matter what trail may be fol
lowed through the Cascade mountains,
posters and placards warning against
fir nd care lensness confront one - at
every turn.
Surycyors at Orcnco.
' (Special to Tb Journal.)
Orenco, Or., Aug. 9. A dozen sur
veyors have taken headquarters at the
hotel. While It cannot be definitely
learned Juft why they are working in
this section, It is believed a survey Is
hoing made for a line to connect the
United Hallway with that of the Ore
gon Electric Railway here, the connec
tion to be southeast of town. From here,
the line Is expected to be run In a
southwesterly direction to Sheridan.
At a short conferenpe'in Mavor Rush
light's office Just before coon today, the
mayor gave the representative of the
mil and Hard man railroads until to
morrow morning at Id o'clock to agree
on a schedule of switching charges to
be made by the U.-W. B. & N. and
Southern Pacific companies for handling
freight of fhe Hill roads on east aide
tracks of the Harriman system.
The mayor had previously told the
railroad officials that he would expect
them to come to an agreemenWy 10
o'clock this morning. Until some agree
ment is reached the mayor and some of
the councilmen are disposed to withhold
further consideration of franchises now
being sought by the railroads concerned.
However, Superintendent D. W. Camp
bell. Of the SoutJienT-Pacific told the
mayor today that he has a force of 20
clerktcornjilllng the costs of switchtng
cars and that the data thus compiled
will not be ready for submission' till to
morrow. On this representation the ex
tension of time was granted.
Superintendent Campbell, of the
Southern rnclflc, and President J. D.
Farrell. of the O.-W. R. & N.. have of
fered to make a reasonable switching
rate. They have further offered --to- let
the question of readability rest on the
decision ' of board of arbitrator! to be
agreed upon by all the companies con
cerned. Mayor Rushlight believes this a
fair proposition and has so stated to
President Young, of the Hill roads. The
mayor is confident that the rival roads
will be able to agree on the switching
charge, however, after the figures are
submitted tomorrow by Superintendent
Campbell. ""V
