Coastaat Effort to Diaerealt
"There has, been a constant effort in
' the senate and in the press to dis
credit unified control of the roads on
th ground of its financial showing,"
. said Mr. McAdoo. During the four

195,225. Jt Is seen, therefore, that the
. operation ratio in 1918 was 67.4 per cent
and in 1917 67.a per cent, showing- slight-

before the committee this afternoon. Am
basis for this prediction McAdoo gave
two general reasons :
V 1. Railroad officials, seeing the end
of government operation approaching,
will refuse to enter agreements with the
menta.
2. The morale of railroad employes
wlli be utterly destroyed, because the
railroad question would become an issue
they would become the objects of polit
ical solicitation everywhere.
McAdoo told the committee that the
. railroad problem Is so Intricate that
congress cannot possibly arrive at a
'correct solution of it before the explra-
present law.

alleged efforts to "club" the senate

WILSON OPPOSED
TO BARGAIN PEACE
President Addressed Delegation
of Italian journalists on
,
Task in Hand.
Rome, i Jan. 4. "What la happening
now is that the soul of one people is
crying - to the soul of another, and ne
people in the world, with whose senti
ments I am acquainted, will be satisfied
with a bargaining settlement," said Pres
ident Wilson in an address to a delega
tion of Italian journalists at the Quirinal
Friday afternoon.
"I am not foolish, enough to suppose.
said Mr. Wilson, "that our decisions wUl
be easy to' arrive at, but the principles
upon which they are to be arrived at
ought to be indisputable." '
The speech wa:s delivered at a recep
tion of representatives of the Italian
press. The editors-in-chief of 30 leading
papers published in various parts of
Italy, and covering the whole range of
Italian journalism, were present. Signor
Torre, president of the Italian Press as
sociation, delivered the address of greet
ing. He emphasized the necessity for a
league of nations and for a settlement
of all disputes on national or racial
basis. r
The president, responding . to the ad
dress of greeting, said :
"Let me thank you, gentlemen, very
warmly for this stirring address, be-
j cause it goes straight to my heart, as
well as to my understanding.
"If I had known that this important
delegation was coming to see me I
would have tried to say something
worthy of the occasion. As it is, I can
only-say that my purpose is certainly
expressed in that paper, and I believe
that the purpose of those associates at
Paris- Is a commoji purpose.
"Justice and right are big things, and
An these circumstances they are big with
difficulty. I am not foolish enough to
suppose that our decisions will be easy
to arrive at, but the principles upon
which they are to be arrived at ought to
be Indisputable, and I have the conviction
that if we do not rise to the expectations
of the world and satisfy the souls of
great peoples like the people of Italy, we
shall have the most unenviable distinc
tion in history.
"Because what is happening now Is
that the soul of one people Is crying to
the soul of another, and no people in j
the world, with whose sentiments I am
acquainted, will be satisfied with a bar
gaining settlement."

raent overseas and left. It the day the
armistice was sWsned, The regiment was
in five battles, he aid, and used Eng

sible, so that It gained quite a reputa
tion. The retention ft the Second battalion
of the 162d U. S. infantry in Kngland
while the First and Third battalions are
ordered home, will cause some disap
pointment" in this city. The Second bat

Toy Construction

Most of us have seen those steel
erectors, made of steel, with which chil

all sorts of things their geniuses can
embrace. They were Invented by a
former Portlander, and are sold in all
parts of the world ; a business of $2,000,
000 is done in them.
R. II. Groves of Portland in 1917 per
fected a set of construction wooden
blocks, somewhat of the nature of the
steel erectors, though costing a great
deal less money, and the sales of these
have reached to Boston on the east,
Mexico to the south and the British pos
sessions ts the north. They are rftanu
factured tit East Fiftieth and Powell
streets, in a factory fitted up specially
for this purpose, the first lot being
20,000 "sets, which were quickly disposed
of to the larger stores of the Coast and
Middle West.
Plans are being made for the manu
facture of 1,000,000 sets for the J.919 holi

YOU CANNOT DEW
YOUR MONEY AND
HAVE IT HERE ALSO
"Big Bertha" Needed to Pound
; Idea Home That Money Sent
Away Does Not Return.
By II. S. Harcoart
Residents of a state capital, on the
adjournment of the legislature, usually I
collapse and look the expression of
".Vow we are done for. Business will
tin to not." About the same condition
obtains at summer resorts, when the
guests havs departed.
At this time there are "Gloomy Guses"
in Portland because there is a tempo
rary cessation of wooden shipbuilding.
They forget that the bed of the ocean
is carpeted with victims of the kaiser's
submarines and that the sunken ves
sels must be replaced. They cannot un
derstand, it seems, that the sudden ces
sation of the war must inevitably- si
lence the hammer and the drill, . the
paint and brush and plane for a few
days until business gets its breath. "A1J
is lost" appears to be burned into their
hearts, and even the "blood of a , goat
could not wash away the stain, nor the
fat of a lamb heal the painful wound.
Without a doubt ships ot wood soon
will be on the ways again. Thousands of
workers will be required to construct
them. Hundreds of masts from the
Oregon forests will be seen upon the
ocean. Scores of wooden ships will be
propelled by steam and electricity. Con
tracts will be received from all civilized
corners of the earth, and our pay rolls
will be as great as ever.
And thousands of workers might be
added to the list if our people willed it.
If those who diet on 'breakfast foods,
for .example. Pre to buy those manu
factured in Portland, fresh.' clean and
healthy, several hundred millers would
be added to the working forces of the
mills. Our macaroni and noodle planta
would largely augment their pay rolls
of there were no importations of these
foods. Our spap factories would double
their employes if our citizens would
stick to Portland made soaps. Our can
dy factories are the equal of any in the
world, yet great quantities of confec
tions are Imported, and to that-extent
reducing the pay rolls of these indus
tries. Our cracker factories are capable
of supplying, in their line. alUthe wants
of Oregon, yet tons of crackers are
Imported yearly. This is another knock
at our pay rolls, and the cause of gloom
in some of our homes and industries.
Today there is no real reason for
shadows to be cast upon the future of
rgruauu, save ine causes created oy our I
own people. If there can be found tfH
fleck in the horizon it is there because
our citizens neglect their own best in
terests and themselves place it In the
skies. And at this writing the opinion
Is prevalent that it would require all
the, forces of a Big Bertha to shoo
Into their craniums sufficient1 wlsdon
to crowd out the foolishness of sur
mising that they can deport their money
and have it, too.
Draf tless Ventilator
Is in New Location
C. F. Putney, lnventer and manufac
turer of the Putney Draftless ventilator,
has moved his factory to 484 Washington
street, where tha ventilator may be seen
and examined. It is a new idea in Its
line. In that it admits air to a room
without the possibility of creating a
draft, so that there is no danger of its
creating a cold. Originating In Salem,
several of the ' state buildings are
equipped with. it. as well as scores of
offices and homes. It is Indorsed by
physicians as generally beneficial to the
health.
Chinese Sentenced;
To Pay Heavy; Fine
Lee Sam,, a Chinese cannery worker,

Cocoanut Oil Is
To Be Used to Take
Skim Out of Milk
The food problem of late years has
caused much attention to be given to
the converting of by-products into whole
some food for human consumption. Con
siderable ffort has been devoted by
the United States department of agri
culture and by dietitians toward havingH
the great by-product of the dairy farm,
skimmed milk, more generally used as
human food.
One of the most recentf developments
towards this end is the Invention of a
process for emulsifying highly refined
cocoanut fat with skimmed milk.
Skimmed milk, lacking fat, is not a
balanced food, and. therefore, will not
in itself be used by the human family.
By replacing the fat solids of whole
milk with a vegetable fat in the form of
refined, edible fat of the cocoanyt. It is
said, a balanced food la produced. In
other words, tha vegetable fat used la
the vehicle for conveying skimmed milk
to the market as a balanced food for
human consumption.
'This food product, which Is being pro
duced by a large concern on the coast, is
marketed as a distinctive product-" an
alternative food, recommended for cer
tain specified uses in the household. '
It Is not a milk substitute, but a milk
supplement, and is largely being used in
homes where a limited amount of whole
or evaporated milk is used not to take
thte. place of other dairy products, but to
supplement their use in cooking, baking,
etc.
The futnre development and extension
of this Industry, it Is claimed, will open
up a wider market to the dairyman for
his milk and will be the means of con
verting into human food a vast amount
of skimmed milk that is now used as
feed for stock or else thrown away.
It is believed that the manufacturers
are not attempting to supplant any other
dairy product with this new compound,
but rather are developing a wider marr
ket for dairy products at a great profit
to the farmer.
Modern Building for
The Small Factories
A. G. Clark ,of the Home Industry
league has made it possible for small
factories to have up to date,, modern
quarters, at reasonable rental, in a cen
tral location., They can step into a de
lightfully appointed, light, airy struc
ture, supplied with suitable elevators,
electric power, steam heat and every
shipping facility, at no greater rental
than most of them are now paying in
out of the way places provided with
little that is modern and few of 4 he
actual requisites. There will be car
tracks to the building, a largelectrical
ly lighted bulletin board locaMhg each
industry, and such, other necessities and
conveniences as the architects may sug
gest. Interested persons may learn all
about the proposition by addressing Mr;
Clark, Oregon building, or calling him
on Broadway 440.

NEED OF MAINTAINING :
HOME INDUSTRIES IS
CLEARLY ILLUSTRATED
" ' If ' '
Shipworkers Are Estimated to
Have Spent Bulk of $42,000,
000 Here in: Last Year. -
There have been approximately 1S.G00
workers employed In tha shipyards of
this city, and 10,000 others In machine
shops, . foundries, galvanising plants,
workshops and industries allied with
shipbuilding. The average pay of these
men has been upward' of $5 per diem
$140,000 a day. Working S00 days the
Portland pay roll would amount-to $4?,
750,000 per annum, and this sum has
gone, principally, Into the' exchequers
of our merchants and tradesmen. Real
estate dealers have' got a small por
tion for homes purchased, but dealers In
the commodities have reaped the great
er part ot the plethoric harvest. Tha
large sum, it must be remembered, has
been paid to workers in addition to tha
ordinary forces of Portland, and tha
aggregate ,fdr the past year has been,
it is estimated, well nigh $60,000,000 t
This brings to mind ' the - importance
of 'maintaining local industries. With
out them.- what would have happened to
the requirements of our government?
Who would have bought the bonds or
invested in War Sayings Stamps? Who
would have helped the nation in its hour
of distress? .There are rich people here
dosens of them. Would they hays
borne tha burden alone? Would they
have opened their purses and put Port
land "over the top" with , a bound, as
was jdon. by the multitudes? How
much were the investments of tha. ship
yard workers? Several millions. How
many others were placed in . position to
buy bonds. Thrift -and War Savings
Stamps r because of the money that
flowed Into their pockets by reason of
the spending - of shipyard workers
money? Thousands! And yet many of
these are absolutely) Indifferent to the
welfare of our local manufacturers.
They buy their daily necessities helter
skelter, here, and there, thoughtlessly
spending their means for articles manu
factured anywhere, everywhere. In dis
tant ctties, so far away that the Jingle
of their coin never again la beard on
the Pacific coast. ; . I
- Some day, perhaps, these same per
sons will awaken to the fact that they
have been engaged in impoverishing
themselves. They 'have been robbing
their own bank accounts. They havs
been piercing the i hands which have
been feedlngthem. They are hungry.be
cause they deserve to feel the pangs
of bitter poverty IxThey didn't buy and
consume the things their neghbors
made. , -
New: Device Makes j
Filler's Use Simple
Always heretofore it has been neces-
esry for users of Universal Tire Filler,
when their tires were worn out. to have
the filler inserted In new ones at tha
company's factory: in East Seventh
street at Hawthorne avenue. Special
appliances were necessary and the work
Bone by those understanding it. Now,
however, the company has secured a
new type of rim, and by its use any peH
son can at any time, anywhere, change
the filler from one lire to another with-
out assistance and, without the use of
the devices heretofore employed.
