-Chief Doweil Said" to Have
.-' .Evidence Several Firemen
; 1 Implicated in Swindle.
A wholesale shakeup In the Portland
fire department appears Imminent as
a result of an Investigation being made
toy Fire Chief B. F. Dowell. of alleged
participation by firemen In a land
chemn whereby . number of promi
nent Portland business men tflalm to
: have been swindled.
. The Investigation has been under
' Way for several days, but it was
not known until this morning that
ao many members of the fU-e bu
reau were alleged to bo involved In
the game. There are said to be nearly
: a dosen or more who took an active
part In the alleged swindle. Chief
Powell has evidence. It is stated on
best authority, concerning several men
now In the. department but La to take
no action toward discharging the men
' until the investigation Is completed.
. fimsl&Ms Men victimized.
Among the Portland businessmen
said to have been victimised are the,
owner of a Jewelry firm, a local firm
of brokers and a hardware man. It Is
probable others lost various sums by
. the activities of the men, but less than
. a, half a dozen have come to the at
tentlon. of Chief Dowell.
The gam was an old one, but It is
.said that those who engineered u
cleaned up several thousands of dol-
lars. Titles to swamp lands near
Medford were secured at a low figure
by schemers. The purchaser would
then approach a member of fhe ring
within the fire bureau and offer him
.''various amounts ranging from 2S to
1 $100 or more to poe as owner of the
, property.
. Bow Scheme Worked.
The schemer pretending to represent
- the firemen would then go to one of
the business men, and tell him a mem
ber of the fire bureau had purchased
and mortgaged the land. The business
man would then be offered the equity
la the alleged mortgaged property at
a figure far below Ha purported valuo.
. The "agent would assure the busi
,; Bess man, that everything was regular
and tell him to telephone or see the
- member of the fire bureau who was
alleged to own the land.
The ; fireman on being Interviewed
would assure the would be purchaser
' that everything wag regular and that the
land bad:-been purchased and mort
gaged In good: faith. After the aala

COOPERATI

Total Money Spent by Various
Organizations Hitherto Has
Never Been Figured,
A num that ha never been totaled
Is the sum of the amounts spent an
nually by charitable organizations of
Portland.
A survey by the charities commit
tee of the Chamber of Commerce In
ial5 placed the annual aggregate of
funds for charity at more than $40,
000. This, however, was Inclusive of
several Institutions that receive state
aid.
"Spent without any system of co
operation," was the comment of the
report. But no report has ever cov
ered the entire subject ' There have
always been Institutions that did not
render a public accounting of funds
received. Principally, these Institu
tions . are of 'a religious character
which are adverse to making finan
cial reports.
Xxchange Arranged Tor.
"Whether the sum total for 19 H will
reach so large an amount Is said to
be doubtful, as appeals have not been
so numerous this year. But the end
of the year has not yet .been-reached
and usually the heaviest demands are
made during the months of Novem
ber and December.

In operating without cooperation, uney

Information concernllng applicants for

in received It will be reported to tne
confidential exchange which win be
condrfcted on the fourth floor of the
court house. , No publicity will be
given, these lists.
Will Prevent Duplication.
Successful operation of the confi
dential exchange Is expected to pre
vent duplication of giving and when
duplication of giving Is eliminated it
will mean that duplication in fields
of work has been done away with.
The confidential exchange does not
contemplate any supervised plan of
securing funds for charitable pur
poses, but It Is expected to have valu
able results In centralizing the work
of the Institutions. The organisations
that use the confidential exchange
are the Portland Baby Home, Boys'

What General Carransa will do Is a
problem, though the administration be

overlook the disastrous situation that
would follow a victory for Villa at this
strategic point. Villa Is an element In
the situation from the fact that the
withdrawal is conditional upon condi

A Villa victory now would upset all

Chief' Counsel for Railroad
Executives Submits Plan to
Newlands Committee.
Washington, Nov. 25. (T. N. S.I
federal usurpation of the states' regu
latory power over railroads was
pointed to here today by A, P. Thorn,
chief counsel for the railroad execu
tives advisory committee,- as the onVr
way to provide adeauate transportation
facilities W the united states. Air.
Thorn said complete centralisation of
railroad regulation was neccesary he
fore the roads could form an -efficient
sart of the system or tne national
defense. -
In demanding this manner of rail
road regulation, before the Newlands
joint committe, Mr. Thorn submitted
the following plan, whlcb "tbe rail
roads believe should be included in
any just system of regulation":
"The entire power and duty or regu
latlon should be In the hands of tbe
as to
national government except
matters o essentially local and Inci
dental that they cannot be used to In
terf ere with the efficiency of the serv
ice or the just rights of the carriers.
As one of the means of accomplish
ing this the ticket system of federal
Incorporation should be adopted into
which should be brought all railroad
corporations engaged in interstate or
foreign commerce.
"Reorganization or the interstate
commerce commission and the creation
of a new federal railroad commission
and regional commissions subordinate
to It.
Interstate commerce commission
should be given power to prescribe
minimum rates.
The power of the commission to
suspend rates should be confined to
60 days from the time the tariff la
filed Instead of 10 months as at pres
ent.
"The federal government should
have the exclusive governmental pow
er to supervise the Issuance of securi
ties by Interstate carriers."
