The thirtieth regular legislative session has 5 passed Into history, having writ i ten a record of achievement be r fore the period of its final ad f journment. It has been a peculiar I session, unlike, in many respects, those that have preceded it, and in many ways it has been bene fited by its peculiarities. The lobby, that ancient Institution which has always hitherto congealed the days and filled the night with suspicion and distrust, has been notice able by Its absence more than by its presence. Here and there, It is true, lonesome pilgrims of some particular in terest have brought back the memories of other days, but, for tho most part, they have been men whose errands ;were ' known and entitled to respectful con sideration at the bands of legislators and committees. : The steam roller, whose crunching rumble filled the house and senate in other times, stood cold and rusting in Its stall until the last two days, when -It was steamed up to put the lieutenant governor amendment across, the one purely political move of the session. But beyond the petty things that will always crop out where men of divergent tastes and inclinations foregather, the session has been a good one. leaving more pleasant memories behind than usual. t has been full of earnest men working conscientiously, whose work has 6orne.; fruit, or will. jj Theprogram it has carried out has v Concluded Vsga Toi-Ctamn Four) FILIBUSTER PLAN IN SENATE FAILS Wilson Wins First Round in Struggle to Prevent Extra Session at This Time. Washington. Feb. 28. (I. N. - S.) President Wilson today won the first round of his battle with the senate over the question of an Immediate extra ses sion, when the Victory loan bill was favorably reported to the senate by the finance committee, authorizing the sec retary of the treasury to Issue short term notes up to $7,000,000,000. An effort was made by Chairman Sim mons to report the bill Thursday, but it was blocked by Senator Jones of Washington who wanted it amended, and who announced he would 'talk at great length" upon the measure If neces sary. Apparently this threat of a fili buster was overcome by the president's visit to the capitol Thursday, when he .took no pains to conceal his decision that an extra session will not be called at once and that If supply bills are held up, the Republicans who hold them up will be permitted to bear the burden of objection the country would make. Insistence by , Republican Chairman Will Hays. In New York, that "the peo ple elected a Republican congress and it should be permitted to unction," to gether with the views of Republican senate leaders. It was feared would re sult in holding up the Victory loan bill. ' without which administration leaders 'frankly admit they cannot proceed with the financing program. Congress will not permit Secretary Glass to fix the interest rate on bonds, and the plan for the notes is new leg islation and. must be passed by the pres- congress if the notes are to be is- e. If. a filibuster hnlri thin i.o-;), - w 1 " ncoouijr uejrLment win find itself unable to do its share in rais ing the balance of the $19,000,000,000 which Secretary Glass has advised con gress will be the total expenditures for the present fiscal year. The president's view is that if neces sary legislation is not enacted because Republican senators wasted timfl by talking about the League of Nations, while Democratic senators, at his re quest, kept silent, the blame will be placed by the people upon the Republt cans.r The president is keenly anxious to have the navy bill go through, this be ins the measure concerning the passage of which he cabled Secretary Daniels from France. The army appropriation bill includes the fixing- of the size of the peace time army, and is vitally important. Metz Yesterday and Today Impressions of the capital city of Lorraine, which Germany failed to Germanize after nearly fifty years of effort, will be related by FRANK H. SIMONDS Next Sunday Peter B. Kyne in Oregon for Local Color for Novel He Is Preparing Captain, Who Went to France in Time to See War End, Has French -Orphan With Him. Captain Peter B. Kyne and his little adopted French son. Marcel, are at the Benson today, from Berkeley, Cal. Captain Kyne is making a two weeks' tour through the Northwest for the first time since 1&08. to freshen his j mind on the color of a brand new j novel he is going to write with its scene laid in Oregon a romance of a sawmill town. Just the exact portion of Oregon, Captain Kyne' has not de cided, but he is going to visit the Coo Bay country as well as a number of points in Washington and British Co lumbia. The idea for his Oregon story. Cap tain Kyne has had for years and years. He explains his ideas as a sort of a . fourth stomach or like a cow's cud which he chews upon for a long time before digesting. War Enda as He Gets to France Captain Kyne has been out of the army since January 29, after 18 months of service, most of which ttme he spent at Camp Kearney. This was where he wrote his last novel and best seller, on Wednesday afternoons, Saturdays and Sundays. The colonel promised him more time upon entering the service for literary work, and then the colonel im mediately forgot about iU Over In France, where Kyne com manded battery A of the 144th field ar tillery, the war ended just 10 days before they got to the front. But did the captain feel disappointed as though he had missed an opportunity of a life time in not getting a whack at the Huns? No, sirre-e-e! Wounded In the Philippines ' I got shot 20 years ago In the Philip pines," he declared, "and I didn't miss any of the war. 1 am not one of those who revel in bloodshed. I never wanted j to fight, and I don't think any of the men did, but it was there to be done ! and that is why we were there. Men j who sigh because they didn't get to I fight are not honest with themselves, j Why, it scared the life out of me." No sooner did Captain Kyne receive his discharge than he had the influents. But he didn't have time to get really sick, with ths new novel awaiting him. Marcel is his souvenir of the war, little blue-eyed, fair haired Marcel Du puys, who escaped from an orphanage at Bordeaux and lived a life in the trenches with the French poll us. Marcel Is inseparable from the captain, although he thinks about as much of Mrs. Kyne. Threatens Another Woyet "He wanted to come with me on tjils trip." explained the captain, "and so I let him. come: W,e shall be away two weeks unless he gets homeslek for Mrs. Kyne." Captain Kyne Is allowing himself 60 days in which to write his new novel and expects to publish it In the fall. His first novel he wrote In only 33 days. "I am not like Sam Blythe," laughed Captain Kyne, "who can turn out a novel in a few days, pounding his type writer day and night until he gets it done."

Portland's long threatened milk war between producers and distributors has been settled by arbitration and the pub lic is the gainer by a reduction in the price of. milk effective Saturday, ac cording to a joint announcement issued this morning by officers of the Oregon Dairymen's league and local milk distributors. Consumers will pay less for milk delivered at their doors and bought at retail stores. Distributors will pay the producers less. Wholesale prices also are reduced but the price of cream remains the same. The reduction. It was stated, comes about through agreement readied without the inter vention of the city- milk commission, which for the past year has been recom mending milk prices for the city. Price to Consumer Cents The statement reads as follows : "The public will be interested to know that the producers and distributors have been able to make an arrangement which will substantially reduce the price of milk delivered in Portland, be ginning March 1. "The price received by producers will be reduced from $3.85 to $3.20 a hun dred pounds for milk containing 3.8 per cent of butter fat "The price of milk delivered to con sumers will be reduced from 14 V4 cent to 13H cents a quaj-t. , " '"These reductions are4 made pWssiSte by the imminence of the "grass season,' when the volume of milk will be greater and the cost of production less. Al though the dairymen are still buying feed at the high prices induced by the war, the record of other seasons justi fies them in expecting the growth of pastures and the reduction of expense incident to the coming of spring. Schedule Is Announced "Later, when tie pastures begin to shorten, due to the dry weather, it will undoubtedly be necessary to change the price again. But it is the intention of the dairymen who are members of the Oregon Dairymen's league and, we think, of others to seek at all times a price for their product covering only the cost of production and a legitimate profit. More would be unfair. Less would be ruin. The same applies to the distributors. "The complete price schedule, effective March 2. will be as follows: "To the producer, $3.20 for 3.8 per cent milk. "To the distributor, 13 Va cents a quart and 9 cents a pint, delivered. "Wholesale prices received by distrib utors will be reduced from 45 to 40 cents a gallon. This covers sales to hotels and eating houses. "Quarts and pints delivered to retail stores for resale to the public will be reduced from 13 Vi to 12 cents and 8 to "Vs cents respectively."

LODGE ASSAILS Republican Leader Sees Nation Turning From Doctrines of George Washington to Trotsky. Fears Attack From Mexico and Says Provisions of Pact Are Too Ambiguous for Success. WASHINGTON, Feb. 28. (U. P.) P resident Wilson's League of Nations covenant calls the American people away from Washington's doctrines to those of Trotsky, Senator Lodge, Repub lican leader, asserted in a-speech to the senate today.

President Wilson has just returaed from a trip to Europe, where he has been laboring with the diplomats of the world in behalf of this feague. Former President William Howard Taft is touring the United States for the purpose of educating our own people up to the vital importance of this question. It is a question which vitally affects every citizen of every na tion of the entire world. The great war from which the world has just emerged has shattered every tradition which formerly held America apart from the old world. We can no longer avoid re sponsibility as a member of this world group. You, as a citizen of the greatest unit of this world group, have a direct interest in the correct settlement of the question at issue," In the final analysis of America's sentiment toward this question Wilson, Taft and the members of congress will be guided by the wishes of the people whom they represent. With that thought in mind and in order to enable everyone who so desires to express themselves, The Journal has arranged to conduct a vote on the question.

T CHIEFS Centenary Team Arrives for Two Day Conference With Laity and Clergy of City and State. Portland Methodism is learning today of the vast scope of the world program Centenary movement, an undertaking so huge that its objects and the ma chinery for their attainment require the teaching of the greatest minds of the church. The Centenary "team" ar rived this morning for a two day con ference with the laity and clergy of city and Estate at the First Methodist Episcopal church. The conference program Included ses sions this morning and afternoon and three banquets for tonight one for the clergy, one for the laymen and one for the women of Methodism, all at the same hour, in the First Methodist church. Saturday's program will begin with a general mass meeting at 9 :30 a. m. and continue with luncheons at noon and general session in the afternoon. The big drive in brief is : The raising of $100,000,000 within the next five years, $40,000,000 of which is to be de voted to home missions, $40,000,000 to foreign missions- and the balance to re construction work In Kurope and the aid of American soldiers returned from war. The church also is asking for 1,000.000 Methodist tithers, for C3,000 young people who will consecrate their lives to the service of the church, and an army of people who will agree to pray daily for the success of this gigan tic movement. This is a movement for laymen rather than ministers. Clergymen are expected by the church to get behind the program with all their strength, but the back bone of the Centenary must be laymen if the program is to be carried out ac cording to schedule. This big program opened this morning at the First Methodist church. It will last until Saturday night. The first man on the platform was K. O. Excel 1, the famous musical leader and song composer. The reason people sing for Dr. Excell Is simply because they think he's "boss," and they will have to Blng anyway. At least that Is what Dr. Excell said, when he arrived this morning as a member of the World Program conference team. It Is a matter of psychology, accord ing to Dr. Excell. He has been teach ing conventions, conferences and big gatherings how to sing for so long that quite a percentage of the people know his work and they stampeded the rest.

Presi dent Wilson's closest advisers today de clared the country was showing an in creasing disposition to strongly support the League of Nations. This claim was based on reports re ceived from all parts, of the United States. - The attitude of tbe plain people toward the league Is considered most vital. Supporters and opponents of the plan attach the greatest importance to the reports which are coming in by wire and mail. It is understood that the "stumping tours of Senator Borah and others, in opposition to the league, will be largely for the purpose of sounding out public opinion in every nook and corner of the nation. The White House today reflected a spirit of optimism over the situation. Administration leaders were cheered by prospects of a Wtlson-Taft meeting at New York on the league. They were encouraged, too. by former Secretary of War Stlmson's urging the Repub lican national chairman to back the plan.
