State Control of ;
Employment Urged
Joseph Mayper Tells of Cherished Plan
to Torm. Bureau "Where foreigner
May rind Work.
Joseph Mayper, counsel on distribu
tion for the committee on immigration
in America, was in Portland yesterday,
on his way from 'the -commonwealth
conference at Eugene to Seattle. His
particular mission is to disseminate
ideas Ion unemployment, and a-t a con
ference Friday he outlined a plan for
state control of employment and the
forming of 'a bureau where ther Jobless
man may find waiting the manless job.
Mr. Mayper addressed the Oregon
Civic league at luncheon, covering the
principal points of his employment
plan. ,. j
"The- object of the committee Is to j
study vthe Immigration problem from I
all angles, chief of which Is to find for
the foreigner a Job that he can fitiSnd
to distribute him to get away from
congestion," he said.
"In the east we have the unemploy
ment and housing problems so closely
bound together that the solution is just
twice as difficult. If we can accom
plish anything here In advance of the
throng of Immigrants, whom I think
may be expected after the European
war, part of that trouble, may b
avoided.
. "t am Informed, that the problem
here Is In finding . proper work for
these immigrants, there being Insuffi
cient industries to give them factory
employment, and it requiring money
for them to . engage in farm ' work.
However, we are studying the problem,
knowing tiiat the east already is congested."

tainment Provided.
One of the Mnost enthusiastic admir
ers of the Columbia highway Is Coun
ty Judge T. Js Cleeton, , who was a
member, of the party that inspected
the highway last Friday.
"During the early construction I
visited it several times, but had not
seen it in its advanced condition," he
said. ''I was impressed with the
thought that although It had cost a
lot of money and will cost a lot more,
the money had been economically and
wisely, expended.
"The scenic beauty of the route, to
gether with its utility, it being a road
that will connect eastern and central
Oregon with western Oregon. Justifies
all the expenditure. To have done
less in construction would not have
done Justice to the scenic beauties
through which it passes.
"It. la necessary to complete the high
way on the same lines that have thus
far controlled Its construction. It
should be made symmetrical and not
cheapened. It should be bard sur
faced. Any other treatment would
be ' Illogical, uneconomical and not
comporting with its requirements.
"It is the greatest piece of road
work in the northwest, and probably
in the United States. It is not only
a road of utility, but It is educational
and Inspiring to all lovers of the beau
tiful. Those who were involved in its
construction are entitled to the thanks
of the. present generation and the gen
erations to come."
Judge Cleeton was a member of the
board when the project was Initiated.
He is pl-eased, however, that the con
struction has been carried on on lines
much greater than at first contemplated.
Portland manufacturers who aro
alive to the possibilities of building up
a demand for their products In South
America are given a splendid oppor
tunity ! to meet prospective customers
and investigate the South American
field in a 106-day personally conducted
trip planned by the Fidelity Trust
company of Baltimore.
Details of the proposed undertaking
have just bean received In Portland
and the matter will be laidbefore the
trustees of the Chamber of Commerce
at their next meeting.
The plan. In brief, as outlined in the
Fidelity Trust company's prospectus,
has been received in Portland by Rod
erick .Macleay. It follows:
Plan Za Outlined.
We have great pleasure In advising
you that this company has chartered
the steamship Finland, a vessel of 22,
000 tons displacement, of American
build and register, for a tour around
South America. . Sailing from New
York January 27'. Baltimore January
29, a visit will be male to all import
ant ports in the southern continent
and several in the West Indies, re
turning home through the Panama
canal, covering a distance of 16.130
miles. i
The triD will consume 106 days: SI
days actual steaming time, 64 days In
port. The longest continuous cruise
from port to port will be . only four
days.
To capture and hold the trade of a
country, the .manufacturers of the
United States must be familiar with
that country s needs. Rankers mer
chants and manufacturers through
this cruise, will have an opportunity to
study in a comprehensive way the
possibilities and needs of the South
American--market. The generous co
operation of the state department
through the diplomatic and consular
officers of the United States has been
assured.
"Made in TJ. s. A." Feature.
An important feature will be the
arrangements on the ship for the ex
hibit of goods "Made in the V. S. A."
There will be on board expert credit
men, bankers and men familiar with
every phase of the . commercial ami
financial possibilities of the Latin-
American countries. Interpreters and
stenographers will be provided.
Entertainment and amusement will
be provided on board and at the place
visited, and it will be a trip not only
of commercial education to the men,
but of pleasure to the ladies accom
canvine them.
We shall be glad to answer inquiries
regarding reservations ror the trip,
and to cooperate in every way with
manufacturers who may desire exhibit
space on the' ship. No charge will be
made for the space occupied by ex
hibits, other than the cost of proper
installation ana removal or tn ex
hibits at ' the end of the cruise.

Portland Should Bo Represented.
"Although It will be more or less of
a Junketing trip," said A. H. AverilL
president of the chamber of commerce
this morning, "It should serve to put
manufacturers of this country in
touch with the situation In South
America and will give them an appor
tunity to get acquainted under the
most favorable circumstances."
"It would certainly be to Portland's
Interest to have representatives aboard
the Finland on this trip," said Roder

lieve that the chamber of commerce,

At an Informal meeting a commit

Under tbe present system i of Inspec

The committee has secured a copy of

C. H. Chapman will make -reply, to-
Professor Eugene Kuehnemann s
statements concerning OprmunT 1 and

several addresses in Portland several
days ago for the purpose; of giving
a favorable view of Germany's: side

The lecturer will undertake to dem
onstrate two points: First, that the
Oerman theory is unworkable in Prac
tlce. and secondly, that It is ithor-
ouchlv immoral. Modern i militarism
la really very old. The principles
upon which it. acts have seldom been
so rranmiv stated as tney are Dy
Bernhardt and bis school.' but; thev
have been followed in practice by most
statesmen and military leaders.; lit is
possible to show from history! I that
they have been uniformly i destructive
to the nations that have; practiced
them. The lecturer will also take up
the German theory of the state re
garded as the supreme earthly entity
and Drove that this view: Is nothing
better than another form of polythe
ism, the deified state beinsr the raise
god of the cult. It Is only by thus
aDotheosizing the state i that any
basis Can be found for the Treltschke
system- of international paganism. Dr.
Chapman will also support the prop

Many taxpayers are demanding an
explanation of tbe opposition to the
retention of John B. Yeon as county
roadmaster. Alleged explanations
have been given, but they do not ex-1
plain. The real explanation is that
there Is a determined effort on foot
to give back to the county board the
management of the county roads. i
The building and maintenance of
county roads involves the expenditure
or large sums of money and the em
ployment of "many men. A few years
ago when the county was governed by
political boss the road department
was. an Important part of the machine
Political services governed all ap
pointments and road workers were the
ward workers who helped to keep the
boss In power. "Influence" was the
determining factor in the purchase of
materials and supplies. Such a thing
as an Inventory of the county's road
machinery, tools and equipment was
unknown. Naturally the taxpayers
received little or nothing for their
ftioney and ! the county - roads were
often almost impassable.
Some .Abases Disappear.
In later years the abuses of the road
department ' disappeared in great
measure, as the demand for good roads
grew more Insistent and as the tax
payers became more critical In scrut
inizing the manner In which their
money was expended.
Nevertheless there is' still a lively
recollection : of the old regime and a
quick suspicion of any apparent at
tempt to bring it back. . "The county
board, spent $1,700,000 for the court
house when we were told at the out
set that it would cost only $800,000,"
said one taxpayer. "I, for one, pre
fer to have John Teon spend the road
fund."
John Teon was appointed county
roadmaster a year ago. His time and
his service have been given without a
dollar of compensation. The only re
compense he desired was the satisfac
tion of securing for the county "a dol
lar's worth of road for every dollar
expended." Politics have played no
part in his administration of the road
department. Under his direction the
great Columbia highway bas pro
gressed far toward completion and a
definite system has been pursued in
the maintenance and Improvement of
the county roads.
The county , commissioners have not
been of one mind in their attitude
toward Teon. Commissioner Holman
has upheld him and strongly advocates
his retention. Commissioner Llghtner
was opposed from the outset to the
appointment of Yeon as roadmaster
and has resented the arrangement.
which took away from the board the
control of the county road work,
X.lghtner's View Given.
Llghtner has Intimated that he would
be willing to continue Teon In charge
of the Columbia Highway, provided all
other county road work is placed once
more under the direction of a superin
tendent to be appointed by the. county
board. II. B. Chapman, for many years
superintendent of county roads, is said
to be Llghtner" s choice for the position.
John Yeon has refused to consider
any division of the work on the ground
that it would cause waste, conflict
of authority and decreased efficiency.
"If the oounty board does not wish
to retain me as roadmaster, well and
good," be said yesterday, "but If I
am to give the results the taxpayers
