Astoria High school won the championship f the Columbia river district of the State High School Debating league last nignt tm defeating Gresham Hiah school. Miss Marguerite Volbrecht and Miss Mabel Ehlpley, Gresham's af firmative team, lost at Gresham to Coach P. T. Kadingpr's Astoria neaa tive fcenm. Miss Ruth Spande and Sverre Halsan, by the unanimous vote or the three Judgres. At Astoria: Gresham's negative team, Frank Rod- gers and Miss Ellen Da Haven, coached by Miss Eva Struggles, lost to As torla's affirmative team, Miss Eva www ana William Sigerdsund, by the votes oi two judges to one. The question was: "Resolved. That tne federal government should own and operate all Interstate railroads acting as common carriers (including intrastate lines competing with them), constitutionality waived." Gresham had won preliminary debates with Tilla mook and James John Hogh schools, and Astoria had won preliminary de bates from Scappoose High. Miss Shipley, for the affirmative. opened the debate, at Gresham, declar ing tnat private railroad ownership has resulted In serious abuses, such as excessive charges, confining develop ment to paying routes, private control of tha country's prosperity and dis crimination between - commodities places and individuals. Tho speaker also brought out the point that present conditions warn us that some radical chance is necessarv. and, since the Interstate commerce commission in 27 years has not achieved adequate regulation, the only remaining plan is ownership by the government, which has the people's welfare, not money, at stake. Mr. Halsan, opening for the nega tive, declared that. , while strict regu lation was desirable, government own ership would be an unwarranted in fringement upon private capital -invested in railroads, forcing It to seek other channels, thus causing an indus trial revolution: would unfairly reap profits of industry developed by pri vate capital, and would-demoralise oth er enterprises. The speaker also maintained that government ownership Is unnecessary, as present facilities are adequate, and" would be Inexpedient, as so vast an undertaking by the government would result in extravagance and Inefficiency. Miss Volbrecht, second, affirmative speaker, argued that government own ership Is a complete success in Prus sia, Switzerland and other European countries with governments Bimilar to ours, and that no nation ever returned to private ownership. She further demonstrated that It is practical as the government now successfully operates the Panama railroad. Miss Spande. second negative speak er, declared government ownership would be a positive detriment econom ically, contrasting the loss of govern ment owned railroads In France with the greatest commercial nation. Great Britain, which has private ownership, and stated that the efficiency of pri vately owned railroads in the United States Is unparalleled by those of other nations. She also called government ownership politically unwise, citing the menace of an army of government employes. Mr. Halsan closed for the negative, declaring that government ownership eliminates competition and means un profitable over expansion, "If govern ment regulation is a failure, govern ment ownership will be a failure." he said. "But if government regulation Is a success, there is no need for gov ernment ownership." He pointed out that Prussia has a different form of governrrtent from tiiat of this country, and has no labor unions. Miss Shipley closed the debate for the affirmative, citing Switzerland as a government ownership country with a governmeiit similar to ours, and de claring the capacity of the American people equal to even so vast an under taking as government railroad owner ship. . A. R. Lyman, chairman of the even ing, praised the careful preparation of the debaters. The judges were Princi pal C. G. Thomas of the college pre paratory course of central Y. M. C. A., and Attorneys R. F. Peters and Wil liam LaForie, all of Portland. Miss Bernice Hargrove gave a piano solo, and a piano duet was rendered by Miss Anna Brugger and Miss Viola Dinger.

Rate (Washington Btirrau of The Journal.) Washington. Feb. 12. Application of the Southern Pacific for relief from the long and short haul clause of the interstate commerce law on ship ments of rough green lumber from Oregon points to San Francisco points has been denied by the Interstate Commerce commission. The Southern Pacific asked to continue the present rates, which are higher to intermedi ate points than to San Francisco. The commission's order is effective May 1. J. N. Teal argued today before the commission in behalf of Kastern Ore gon Lumber Producers' association in the case against the Great Northern, Northern Pacific, etc. The lumber pro ducers of Baker and Union counties are seeking to have Spokane, Butte and Silver Bow gateways opened to the movement of lumber from that dis trict on the same basis as applies from northern roads through same gate ways to points on the Harnman lines. Proposed increased freight rates on cement are not justified from Salt Lake and Devil's Slide. Utah, to Butte, Anaconda and other points in Mon tana and Idaho, according to a ruling made today by the Interstate Com merce commission. The effect of the decision in ref erence to rough green lumber will be that on and after May 1 the Southern Pacific, will have to carry such lum ber from Willamette valley points. south of Oregon City, on the east side. and Oswego, on the west side, to points in the San Francisco bay dis trict, this side of San Francisco, at 17 ia cents per 100 pounds, which is the rate charged on this material to San Francisco. For several years the company liaa charged HM cents tot San Francisco from the Willamette valley mills, but from these name mills to Intermediate points in Cali fornia, such as Sacramento or Red Bluff, a 2o cent rate applied. In 1910 the Interstate commerce act vas amended so that the railroads waiving the long and short, haul clause had to secure permission from the commission and the decision Just ren dered comes upon the application of the Southern Pacific to waive opera tion under the clause. In other words, the decision means a reduction of the rate from the Wil lamette valley mills to intermediate The FROM OREGON OWER Hotel Grill You will save yourself a whole lot of think ing and perhaps som4 disappointment by coming here to dine.
