WILSON TO PLAGE
OWN PEACE AIMS
BEFORE MEETING
President to Sail Early In De
cember for Europe to Take
His Place at Peace Table.
TO URGE LEAGUE FORMATION
Ideals, for Everlasting Peace to
Be Propounded; Mention Is
- Made of Him as League Head.
(Cob tinned From Pin On)
wlUt hi foreign principles of peace
which have been adopted by the al
lies also as theirs.
The conspicuous Republicans "who
might be mentioned for the peace post
like former President Taft and oth
ers, joined in the attack upon these
jrtrtclples during the recent campaign.
Neither Charles E. Hughes nor Elihu
Hoot, however, shared In .these attacks
and ft Is possible one of these may be
elected as the Republican representa
tive. Some, believe, on the other hand
that he may select his man from th
progressive wing of the Republican
party and in this connection Senator
Borah of Idaho 4s mentioned.
(Buy senators eager to io
If the president goes, he will deliver
his annual message to congress outlin
ing his policies of reconstruction.
It is pointed out by his faiends that
he will be back from the conference in
ample time to take up personal charge
of his proposed legislation if necessary.
Today there was a flood of appeals by
senators and others to be taken along
on the mission. Friends of Senator
Saulsbury. president pro tem of the sen
ate, are urging the president to name
him as a delegate. They point out that
Saulsbury is a member of the foreign
relations committee and that President
McKinley appointed 8enator Frye, then
president pro tem of the senate, as a
peace delegate after the Spanish-American
war.
Since the United Press first reported
the president was planning to go to the
peace conference, there has been wide
discussion throughout the nation as to
the advisability of his leaving Washing
ton at this time. The president holds
that of alt the world problems, none Is
so important as that there should be no
more war. His purpose In going Is to
form a league of nations. The rules
upon which this league Is founded must
be included in the peace treaty and
henceforth become the basis of the set
tlement of all international differencs.
League Plans Discussed
While the league Idea has been more
or less hasy, its general outline has been
thoroughly duscussed by the inter-allied
diplomats. It Is to be a super
: national authority, to which every In
, dependent state will be pressed to sub-
'. scribe and whose powers will assure
protection to all, great states and small
alike.
The league Implies information of
. an international high court for settle
ment of all disputes between states.
Refusal would imply deliberate ag-
gresslon, under the proposed rules of
the leagAie, and all other nations in its
personnel would then take common cause
Against the offender, using economic
or military disciplinary measures.
The league would determine questions
1 of armament limitation, military train
ing and war , manufactures. One idea
advanced is to have all munition plants
under the government, thus abolishing
profit-making armament firms whose
pecuniary interest may rest In war
scares and progressive competition in
preparation for war.
' Saggested As First President
In conjunction with the league there
has been strong urge, particularly by
international labor leaders, for the
formation of an international legislature
. in which representatives of every civi
lised state would have an alloted share
In developing International legislation,
such as mlntmum wage, child labor and
other international laws advocated by
labor.
81nce President Wilson fathered the
1 idea of the league and has held it to
be the most Important thing to come out
of , the peace conference, there Is a
strong belief among diplomats here that
he will be made the first president of
this great International organization.
Text of Announcement
The White House statement regarding
the president's trip is as follows :
The president expects to sail for .
France immediately after the open
ing of the regular session of con
gress, for the purpose of taking
part in the discussion and settle
ment of the main features of the
treaty of peace.. It is not likely
that it will be possible for him to
remain throughout the session of
the formal peace conference, but
his presence at the outset Is nec
essary in order to obviate the man
ifest disadvantages , of discussion
by cable in determining the gen
eral outline of the final treaty on
which he must necessarily be con
sulted. He will, of course, be accompa
nied by "delegates who will sit as
representatives of the United
States throughout the conference.
The names of delegates will be
presently announced. '
Trip to Last Several Weeks
The president wfal be absent from the
United States for three weeks, or pos
sibly a longer period, dependent, of
course, on developments on the other
side. It is his present intention to be at
Versailles for the opening of the confer
ence and to gather from its preliminary
discussions an idea of what will follow.
The president's announcement of his
impending departure is deemed a suf
flclent answer to the query, "Does the
constitution permit the president to
leave the country ?" If it did not he
would not go, so that settles it.
To those persons who foel that he
will shatter precedent is the recoil ec
tion that the three of the four presidents
before hlm-3rover Cleveland, Theodore
Roosevelt jand William Howard Taft
also shattered precedents. Mr. Cleveland
was outside the territorial waters of the
United States on a yachting trip. While
both Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft visited
the canal zone and also stepped out of
Its boundaries into the republic of Pan
ama. Further. It is recalled, Mr. Taft
crossed the international bridge overJ
the Kio Urande and stepped upon Mex
lean soil on one occasion.

JOSEPH SMITH, HEAD
OF MORJON CHURCH,
DIES AT SALT LAKE
Paralytic Stroke Fatal to Nephew
of Founder of Latter Day
Saints.
SENATORAL VIEWS ON
TRIP ARE AT VARIANCE
Washington, Nov. 19. (3. N. S.)
President Wilson's proposed attendance
at the , peace conference was, for the
most part, indorsed by United States
senators today.
"It will have the effect of giving em
phasis to the things that the presi
dent stands for," said Senator Hitch
cock of Nebraska, Democrat, chairman
of the foreign relations committee. "It
is entirely in accordance with prece
dence that the head of the country
should meet the heads of the other
countries interested. I understand that
the heads of the countries interested met
at the Vienna conference in the early
part of the last century the conference
that ended the Napoleonic wars."
"Of course, It's a most unusual trip,
but the conference is the- most unusual
and important ever held," said Senator
Smith of Georgia, Democrat. "I am
gratified that the president will be
present. I believe that his influence
will be most valuable and will con
tribute to the future welfare of the
countries of the world as well as to that
of the United States, which Is the leading
nation of the world."
"The decision of the president to go to
the peace conference is eminently
proper," Senator Sheppard of Texas,
Democrat, declared. "I am glad he has
made the decision to go."
Senator Watson of Indiana, Republl
can, said that President Wilson's un
bbunded and personal ambition is re
sponsible for his decision to go to the
conference.
"With the many important duties of
the president in this country," continued
Senator Watson, "It appears to me that
he might well remain here. With the
many American diplomats of great abil
ity and wide experience, who, if trusted
by the president, could have rendered
great service at the peace table and
fully protected American rights and
provided as well as for the future of
the allies I cannot escape the convic
tion that the president's unbounded per
sonal ambition has much to do with his
determination to go to B'rance."
Senator Kenyon of Iowa, Republican,
said, "I think the president has done
enough hard work toiave a little vacation."

Salt Lake City, Utah, Nov. 19. (U. P.)
-Joseph F. Smith, president of the Mor
mon church, died here today after a
long Illness following a paralytic stroke
suffered last April. He was 80 years
old.
Ever since he suffered the stroke of
paralysis the Mormon leader had been
confined to his home, except on one
occasion when he addressed a church
conference.
Joseph Smith was a nephew of Joseph
Smith, the original Mormon prophet. He
crossed the plains with an ox team and
settled in the valley of Salt Lake in
1848.
Smith became president of the Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in
1901, following the death of Lorenso
Snow. Prior to that he had held many
important posts in the church organiza
tion, including that of missionary to
Great Britain.

LEAVES MATTER TO CITY
Dock Commission Takes No Part in
Yamhill Street Affair.
Decision of the public dock commis
sion to take no part in the proposition
of laying a third rail in a section of
Yamhill street, was announced at a
meeting of the commission today. It
was decided that, since the matter did
not concern port affairs, it would be
better for the city to handle the ques
tion entirely.
The commission approved the plans
but explained that it did so without at
tempting to Investigate the merits of the
proposal. The commission declined to
grant an advance In wages of plumbers
and painters engaged on public work.
The commission will abide by the
Macy wage schedule. Plumbers had
asked for $7.20 a day, the present pay
being $6.40. Painters asked $8, the
present schedule being $5.90. The com
mission approved the dock levy of $311,
000 to take care of interest on bonded in
debtedness and other matters. Salaries
of dock clerks were fixed at $100 a
month, which is an advance of $10 over
the former scale.
TRIAL TRIPS ARE PLANNED
Three Vessels Built at Local Plants
To Be Tried Out.
Plans for trial trips of two new gov
ernment steel vessels have been made

shipping board. . The machinery for the
West Kyska was installed by the Wil
lamette Iron & Steel works. The steel

RIVER FORECAST

Hoover Is Expected
To Go to Berlin to
Study Food Supply
Paris, Nov. 19. (U. P.) That Her
bert Hoover will go to Berlin within two
weeks to study the German food situa
tion first hand was the belief expressed
here today..
The plea of the Germans that continu
ance of the blockade wUl cause great
hardships, owing to the food shortage,
is expected to be investigated thoroughly
by competent allied authorities under
Hoover's direction.
Should the blockade be lifted, it is
pointed out, the entire food distribution
of the world would be disrupted, as the
Germans would be 'enabled to go into
the open market and bid against the
allied and neutral countries.
Aside from military consideration.
continuance of the blockade is therefore
advisable as a guarantee that Germany
will take her place in the food line with
tho rest of the world.

Socialist Hagf Shall
Not Fly in Gotham
New York, Nov. 19. (I. N. S.) The
red flag no longer is to be displayed in
New York. Mayor Hylan has ordered
the , police department to prevent the
display of the Socialist banner as well
aa to .disperse all unauthorized gather
ings in the future.
Was h disloyal? the attorney asked.
"He may have made mistakes," the
mayor answered, "but It did not take
him long to get into the game when the
time came. Are we trying the president
of the United States for loyalty here?"
He continued that the police force had
been asked by the Department of Jus
tice, which was handling her case, to
keep their hands off Dr. Equi.
Judge George Stapleton, City Auditor
George R. Funk, E. D. Whitney and
John Mann, chief deputy United States
marshal, also testified that the reputa
tion of the defedant was bad, as to
loyalty and being a law abiding citisen.
The storm center of the sedition trial
of Dr. Marie Equi was reached Monday
afternoon when the defendant, who had
taken the stand in her own behalf,
came under the fire of United States
Attorney Bert E. Haney's cross exami
nation. From the first question until
adjournment of court such a battle of
wits was on as is seldom seen In a
courtroom between a woman and a man.
Dr. Eaul proved herself to be a skil
ful and an able witness In her own be
half. Cool, collected and alert, quick
to grasp dramatic possibility and tacti
cal advantage, she piloted her testi
mony through the even current of her
examination in chief and the troubled
channels of her cross examination with
consummate ease and ability.
Of Italian-Irish Parents
Dr. Equi began her testimony by
stating, in answer to the questions of
her counsel, that she was 45 years of
age, had lived in Oregon 22 years and
in Portland 18 years. She was a mem
ber of the City and COunty Medical so
ciety and had been a fellow of the
American Medical association for four
or five years. She was of Italian and
Irish parentage, she said, and had been
raised from a child to abhor absolutism
monarchy and oppression. Her father,
she related, had been a stone mason
and during her early youth had been a
leader in the agitation for the eight
hour day in Massachusetts, since which
time she had believed in and worked
for the organisation of industrial work
ers ss a means of bettering their condi
tion! in life and labor.
Tells History of Case
The witness took up the relation of
her trouble during the preparedness pa
rade, and told of Its incidents, so far as
she was directly concerned, in detail.
She had received a letter from an anti
militarist society in New York, prior
to the parade, she testified, asking her
to make a demonstration against pre
paredness. Accordingly she had pre
pared a banner with tne inscription.
"Workmen Prepare to Die. J. P.
Morgan & Co. Needs Profits," which she
had placed on her automobile and car
ried through the streets until it had
been torn down by Palmer Fales. a
young attorney, Charley Crowley and a
crowd of other men.
Dr. Equi testified that she had had
an American flag on her automobile.
and that she had been brought p to
believe that the flag stood for equality,
liberty and freedom.
' Wanted to Go to France
Before the United States went into
war, Dr. Equi testified, she had asked
Senator Lane to be sent to France as
a Red Cross physician and had applied
for such service two or three times since
then. She had always given or Invested
in war work activities, she said, to the
Armenian and. Belgian relief, the Red
Cross, that she had purchased $160
worth of War Savings stamps and was
the owner of a $50 Liberty bond.
She had never supported Germany.
she said, and being part Italian, her
sympathies were naturally with the al
lies. If not with the war. She had al
ways been opposed to the monopolistic
form of government wherever found.
She bad never called an army man, or
any class of people "dirty skunks," had
never talked against the flag or the
government but had talked against "the
system."
Denies Objection to Bonds
Dr. Eaul denied that she had ever
opposed the purchase of Liberty bonds,
but had objected, to the banks charg
ing 6 per cent Interest for deferred
payments, contending that they should
have charged only the same rate of In
terest borne by the bonds themselves.
She had objected to men being tarred
and feathered, abused or ridden on
rails because they failed or refused V1
buy bonds. She had no quarrel with
the government, she said, but did with
the profiteering system and belieyed
that an, Industrial commonwealth
should be brought about by education
and organisation.
On cross examination Dr. Equi . ad
mitted that she had been arrested four
or five times, once . at The Dalles,
once during the cannery strike in Port
land, once during the unemployment
demonstration, once during the visit of
the Hughes' special to Portlad. and
probably at other times.
Denies Being AaarehUt
She denied that she was an an
archist, contending that while she bad
been registered as a Socialist and a
Progressive she voted the Democratic
ticket because she was opposed to the
war and in favor of President Wilson's
efforts to keep the United States out
of, war.
Dr. Equi denied that she had ever
said that the I. W. W. would fly the
red flag on the court house if they
wanted to do so, that she had ever
threatened to stab a policeman with
a poisoned hat pin.
She admitted that she had been in
Paterson, N. J., during the Flynr and
I. W. W. disturbance there, but con
tended that she was there simply to
assist in raising a defenses; fund for
the Flynn trial. She admitted visiting
Dr. James Warbass, president of the
