1 London, May 10. (U. P.) With Pre
mler Lloyd George's victory the Gen
eral Maurice affair is seemingly closed.
'Insofar as it affects the government,
adding another to the string of the
premier's political triumphs. The chief
feature outstanding Is the evident ap
pearance far the first time during the
war of organized opposition to the gov
ernment. ' Some of the newspapers supporting
Lloyd George declare It marks the turn
ing point in the war relations of the
parties.
They thlnlc an open political war has
been declared and see the whole affair
.'as a political plot to oust the govern
ment. They regard the vote on Herbert
Asqulth's motion for the appointment
'of a parliamentary committee to In
vestigate the charges against the pre
mier and the chancellor of the ex
chequer as a rout for the former pre
mier. The same note ran through
Lloyd George's defense of himself and
ministry
The opposition ' asserts that Lloyd
George evaded the issue, side-stepped
an inquiry by withdrawal of the offer
of a Judicial Investigating board and
won a parliamentary victory by leger
' demaln on' the floor of the house.
The public Is greatly interested In
America's attitude regarding the Mau
rice affair. Long ' quotations from the
American press are published in the
London papers.
INFLUENTIAL PAPERS
BACK UP GOVERNMENT
', By Floyd MaeOrlff
London. May 10. (1. N. 8.) "There
Is a certain faction whose motto is 'Win
the war, but destroy Premier Lloyd
George at any cost,' " said the Daily
Express today, commenting upon the
outcome of 'the debate In the commons
yesterday, when former premier As-
' qulth's motion for a committee to Inves
tigate General Maurice's charges was
voted" down' by 293 to 106.
1 "Any general is good enough to beat
. the government with." the Daily Express
continued. "Today It Is General Maur
Ice; tomorrow It may be General Ma-
fcon."
' The Morning Post said :
, . "Because the house of commons Is
satisfied with Premier Lloyd George's
statement. It does not follow that the
t .people are. 'In this matter commons has
ceased to represent the nation. We can
conceive of '.nothing worse for the army
' morale than that the premier, like in his
Paris speehp, should condemn the strat
egy of generals.
' -The Dally Telegraph says that this
latest attack on the government has
come to an ignominious collapse. It
continues : I
: "If it conies "to preparing fiascos, this
last must be considered the most tu
- tile."
s I The Dally News, one of the papers,
that has bfeen hostile to the premier,
ays that "A plain accusation has been
spirited away by a trick of legerde
main." t
i . The Times (a Northcliffe paper), says :
i '"We shall still believe in the patriot
ism of General Maurice's motives, but it
. seems charitable now to believe that he
has been made the instrument of abler
and less honorable men. For the ques
tion of fact, the prime minister's case
was overwhelming and we retain' all
of our old time conviction that he is not
the best exponent of an overwhelming
case."

Salem. Or.. May 10. "The difference
between wages In Portland and the state
at large has been wiped out." says O. P.
Hoff, labor commissioner, in a letter he
is sending to many women in the state
who are interested In working conditions
and wages for women. His statement
refers to the minimum wage rule for
women.
'Under present conditions," he says.
"many of our women, are nobly, respond
ing to the call of our country and filling
occupations heretofore held by men, and
it Is our combined duty tOvee that these
women receive the same pay that Is paid
men at the same kind of work.
"I have found that women, because
of their earnestness in anything they un
dertake, can accomplish more than men.
and it Is to you I look for the best work
In Improving conditions of the general
public, and particularly of women.
Commissioner Hoff points out that the
new minimum wage scale, which has
been issued by the industrial welfare
commission, of which he is secretary.
will take effect June 12. He sum
marizes the scale as follows:
For adult experienced women :
Mercantile establishments, $11. fO per
week.
Manufacturing, .laundries. personal
service (manicuring, ushering in the j
theatres, elevator operating, etc.). public
housekeeping (hotels, restaurants, board-;
ing houses, etc.), telephone and tele
graph, $11.61 per week.
Offices. $48 per month.
For adult apprentices in mercantile
establishments :
One- month at $7.20, three months at
$8.40 and four months at $9.60 per week.
For all other occupations, excepting
telephone, one year apprenticeship of
three periods of four months each. First
four months, $7.20 ; second four months,
$8.40 ; third four months, $9.60 per week.
." Telephone occupation, one year ap
prenticeship, of four periods of three
months each. First period. $7.20; second
period, $7.92; third period. $8.64, and
fourth period, $9.36 per week. ..
When room and board are furnished
not more than $1.60 per .week for room,
nor more than $3.20 for board. of 21
meals per week, may be charged.
of years, were dally and prominently ;
before the eyes and In the minds of the
voters ; both possessed a nucleus of posi
tive supporting strength to begin with.
Moser, In the beginning, had some
little support among the so-called liberal
element of the county, but was not able
to add much to this as time went on.
and was badly crimped when Harley
floated Into the arena on his "light wine
and beer" propaganda. 8impson also
cut under this foundation until at the
present time there seems to be but little
Moser talk In. Roseburg, or the county.
Slmpsos Has Hade Progress
Simpson has made friends in the
northwest section of the county and has
climbed farther up from the initial aero
that confronts any new candidate than
either of the others, but it is not the
opinion of those who have followed the
campaign that he has gone far enough
to 'give him a chance even for second
money.
A. C. Marstera. who, since the passing
of Binger Hermann as a dominating
nolitical leader in the county, has been
in the forefront in local politics, holds
he opinion that the Douglas county
battle lies between Olcott and Withy-
combe, but, though he is one of - tne
leaders of the Wlthycombe camp, he
will not hazzard a guess as to which of
the two will win the plurality of the
votes. He hears Simpson talk, he says,
and Olcott has a lot of strength, but
beyond that he will not venture Into
positive prediction except that the fight
lies between Olcott and the governor.
The Olcott camp admits that the fight
is between Olcott and Wlthycombe, but
it is more sanguine and claims the
county.
The one definite sentiment expressed
on all sides is that It Is a two-man
battle. The question is which one of
the two will be the winner In the coun
ty. That Is for the ballots to tell on
May 17.

their flag, are opposing Olcott now,
and it is argued that they are not so
potent now as they were then. The
governor has made several political
moves in Douglas county that do not
seem to have added to his strength
For one thing his appointment of Carl
Shoemaker as state game warden was
not popular, and again the selection of
Marsters as a member of the State Fair
board did not meet with entire approval
Beyond this the dismissal of W. W. El
der as commandant at the soldiers'
home did not leave a pleasant taste on
the political palates of Mr. Elder's
friends in Douglas county and Elder
wasnot an unpopular official In Hose'
burg and the surrounding country.

These incidents, it is argued by the
friends of Olcott, have detracted from
the Wlthycombe strength in the county
