'WORKLESS DAYS'
Assistant Secretary of Agricul-

to Help With Harvest.
. Washington. March II. (I. N. S.)
"Statewide worklesa days," during the
harvest season were advocated this aft
ernoon by Assistant Secretary of Agri
culture Oualey
Appearing before the, ' senate commit
tee on agriculture Ousley stated that it
would be necessary to close down non-ear
sentlal Industries for a period of 15 days
during the harvest season In order that
workers might be sent to the farms.
' "No act of legislation can send the
men back to the farms," he declared. "I
believe 'the business men will have to
close their . places ' for' day s"V and even,
weeks, and go into , the, fields and help
harvest the crop.

said he -thought It days, not necessarily

EIGHT-HOUR DAY IN
Representative Fordney of Mich

to Coast Workers.
Washington, March 13. (WASHING
TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.) I
The eight hour day, which, he said has 1
been forced upon the lumber industry of
the Pacific Coast, was passionately de
nounced by Representative Fordney of
Michigan before the senate military af
fairs committee today.
"There is no eight hour day in the
trenches," he said. "I have two boys
over there and I say, for God's sake,
don't keep us from winning by what is
done here. . Don't ay to men they may
work only as they please and the gov
ernment is behind them."
Fordney spoke in opposition to cer
tain features of Senator Chamberlain's
timber, commandeering bill, which had
been recommitted after being: favorably
reported to the senate. He objected to
giving the president authority to di
rect logging and mill operations. Log
gers are patriotic, he said, and such
legislation is not necessary.
L. C. Boyle of Kansas City, attorney
for . the lumbermen, 'urged that sections
four and five be stricken from the bill.
These sections grant authority to direct
logging and lumber operations and pre
scribe penalties for violation of any
order by the president. . .
Ex-Governor .west, who appeared in
behalf of the bill at a former hearing,
was-unable to be present today but is
expected to present his views later.

GREAT DEFICIENCY
MEASURE PASSES
Bill Carries Appropriations of
$760,000,000 Fight Made
on Food Administration.
Washington, March 13. (I. N. S.)
Another huge "millionaire" bill went ;
"over - the top" Tuesday afternoon in
the senate. It totaled $760,000,000 and
was for urgent deficiencies in govern
ment work.
Almost at the last moment of Us pas
sage, Benedict Crowell, the assistant
secretary of war. asked the senate for
$375,074,465 for arming fortifications and
$6,300,000 for new proving grounds for
the great battle guns.
This great $400,000,000 estimate was
made just too late to have it Included
in the bill . passed after a fierce fight
made on one provision by Senator Reed
of Missouri.
The senator concentrated a hot fire
upon an appropriation of $1,760,000 for
the food administration. He thundered:
"The food administration has had no
less than $8,000,000 since last August. It
has $1,260,000 still unexpended. It will
receive $1,121,141 from accounts. It's
going some to ask for $1,750,000."
Immediately he followed this with
the assertion that the wheat corporation
of the. food administration would col
lect $12,000,000 from American farmers.
Senator Reed spoke for almost three
hours. After Underwood of Alabama re
plied and defended the action of the ap.
propriatlens . committee in. giving . the
sum. the ,senate - passed the bill with
htPdtssentlng Trolee. ; V .... ., V--
"Never in - our -whole : history,!' iaJd
Reed, ""has there been such extrava
gance, as in the food administration. A
drunken sailor ashore for the first time
In five years and filled with bad New
England whiskey could not equal the
record.'
"Immediate inforrrfatlon should be de
manded on the fact that the food ad'
ministration will receive $12,000,000 on
one. per cent of the $1.85 the farmers
will receive for wheat, instead or. the
$2.20 named in the bill.
"Never has a man been able to
thrust his arm deeper into the treasury,
"But why not spend $40,000 for but
tons? It's only the people s money,
Seventy thousand dollars for furniture ;
only the peoples money!"

sidering questions of finance arising in

"During recent months," says Gov
ernor Wlthyeombe, in his letter asking
for a meeting of the board, "requests
have , come from, various parts of tho
state asking for state assistance in the
matter of guard protection, and the
general situation, - particularly the im

waterfront, is such that I deem it ad
visable , to discuss matters . with the
members of the emergency board."

Proposed Ordinance Would Cut
Amount of Bond to $1000 and
; Permit Cash' Bond . as Well
as Surety.
Plan Is, If Law Passes, to Refer
It to People to Be Voted on
at a Special Election to Be
Held on May 17. .
The question of jitneys on the streets
of Portland was revived before the city
council this morning when an ordinance.
drafted by the people's committee re
ducing the amount of bonds necessary
for the operation of jitney buses from
$2500 to $1000, was introduced by Cora-
missloner Bigelow,
The ordinance probably will be passed
by the council with a few minor changes
and under the present plan a resolution
will be adopted referring the measure
the peeople at the special election
scheduled for May 17.
Mayor Baker announced that he
would favor the passage of the ordi
nance but he wanted it understood that
the ordinance would not be effective
until passed upon by the people. He
opposed repeal of any legislation passed
by the people, he said.
Under the provisions of the ordinance
all firms, corporations, or individuals
driving automobiles for hire must de
posit surety bonds to the extent of $1000
or cash of the same amount with the
city treasurer, as. Indemnity for injury
or death of passengers carried, viola
tions of the ordinance carries a penalty
of a fine in the municipal court of not
less than $50 or more than $200.
A, L. Barbur, commissioner of public
works, declared that the plan of secur
ing bonds - to insure the lives of pas
sengers was wrong and that Instead

Word From lloseow Awaited '
Washington, March 13. (L N. E.)
Official Washington today awaited with
extreme Interest word of the reception '
of President Wilson's message of cheer
and encouragement to the congress -of
Russian Soviets at Moscow.
' Meanwhile officials view with the ut
most satisfaction the fact that Japan
is deferring action in Siberia. This
policy of restraint Is accepted as a-
token of Japan's desire to do nothing
that would not receive at - least the
tacit approval of the United States and
an all-round satisfactory adjustment of
the situation centering at Vladivostok
seems drawing nearer and nearer, it Is
felt. . ' . .i:ffi::
It was learned her today that a strict
censorship on all - news coming from
Harbin has been in force - for ... three
weeks, but officials refused to exhibit
any alarm over the fact. It was learned
that while the view of the whole world
on the Siberian problems have on
I made known to Japan, no accurate Jn-
