"j as . n uovernor ana miss wrenunore Have Decided to 'Postpone'; " the Nuptial Ceremony. , Washington, Mjr ' 13. The marriage jot Francis Burton Harrison, trovernor general of the Philippines, and Miss Belda Wrantmore of Berkeley, Cal., ha been "postponed." ' - ' V : This was announced at the home of M re. Burton Harrison. , mother of the prospective sroom. explanation was sriven as to how Ions; the postponement to a future date might be. Harrison did not return to Washing ton Monday as had been expected. Neither did Miss Wrentmore arrive, although for two .weeks It has been said she was en route 'from Berkeley to pay1 her prospective mother-in-law a visit. Advices from the Pacific coast show that Professor and Mrs.' Clarence O. Wrentmore., Instead of withdrawing" their opposition to the wedding, are more determined than ever . to prevent the uninrt tVimi Amu rV , . with Ka w- ernor general of the Philippine islands. They base their disapproval mainly upon the fact that Harrison la 27 years older than their, daughter, who has just turned is. - Again, Harrison's divorces do not tend to place him as a welcome son-in-law in their estimation, aside from the fact that be is not yet legally, free to marry. - Harrison's friends here say the delay is occasioned by- the - slowness of Cali fornia's courts in handing down the Har rison divorce decree.

Emejy Olmstead vice -preafc. dent and treasurer, and W. H. Crawford secretary and manager. The first def inite work was the careful consideration of plans for the first farm uatt and the appointment of a committee to investi gate the most aulckly available lands. The commission members were of the oDlnlon that cutover lands would be. the most feasible to work on as a start in cooperation with timber companies. They based this opinion on the fact that cutover lands are as a rule near centers of population and could for this reason be more quickly and more cheap ly developed. t . . WHEELER IS CHAIRJAX Charles L. ' Wheeler was appointed chairman of the committee to appeal to th, , i rv-i l-i rmart anA. ,mMat,H with Vtlm will be H. D. Scudder of the OregonW Agricultural college. H. J. Simpson, Charles T. Early and Mr. Evanson. Organization of the commission as m corporation was completed and most of the afternoon was devoted to discussion of plans for the first unit of' 60 acres which' the commission intends to start developing at once. This unit will be model for the future development of farm lands under the supervision . of the land commission. Secretary Crawford, who recently re turned from a trip to California where he visited Chico, the site of the first development of the California land com mission, discussed with the members the plans which our Southern' neighbor has adopted. ' ; OHEGOJT PLA5 FAVOEEB The members were inclined - to believe that the plans Oregon had- under con sideration were better, as ,they allowed individual instead of colonization de velopment and therefore permitted a broader field of possibility. President Boise Intends to go to Wash ington, D. C., soon, and announced his intention to bring aome of the commis sion questions to the attention of Sec retary Lane while there. He will like wise endeavor to have provisions made so Oregon will be allowed a portion of the $500,000,000, Jand . development . fund to be voted upon at the next session of congress. GREETINGS ARE ' EXIENDEDVETERANS tCwtiroied From P On) help breaking out with cheers and the l)oys couldn't help yelling and no one wanted them ta help It. The engineers were hurried out of the station because of the lateness. Form ing out on Sixth street with their own band, the regiment marched up between aisles of familiar faces and came to. a halt in front of Liberty temple, where Mayor Baker made them officially wel come."; After a short address, with re sponses by Lieutenant Colonel George il. ' Rice and Major Kenneth V. Hau ser, son bf Eric V. Hauser of Portland, Men Like to most of the boy were taken-Jto lunch at the Portland fcoteL, Many, of them went to their homes. , BAXQtTET THIS . ' After lunch they strolled to amuse ment places where tickets were fur nished -by lhe War Gamp .Community service. - This evening they will meet at the Multnomah hotel for a banquet at ISO. tendered by the United Auxiliaries reception committee. After the ban quet the whole hotel will be turned over to them until train time at 12 :15 to night. ' They are all required to be pres ent at that time as a general roll ball will be held- , - . ; Many of the soys will wish- to go to the Jssz Canyon at The Auditorium, which is staged by the Daddies' club and to which they are invited. .

The United Auxiliaries reception committee will have' a large supply of attractive young women on hand to soothe the .pal pitating hearts of any of the boys who au not live in Portland. PORTLAND STILL BEST BET j From the faces of the boys on the train coming in it was evident that they were going to enjoy themselves all the while. They, have seen a good part of France and have been there nearly long enough to own the place; but they'd rather own a war - garden in Portland than a doxen Frances. - During that long stay In France they did a" lot of work. For example, at "" ' . i ' :" ihejit furnished the section engineers for three of the seven base sections, Bordeaux, LaKochelle and Marseilles. Companies A and E, the Portland companies, served for some time at Is- sur-Tllle and Dijon in the advanced sections. - Colonel J. R. Holman of Portland, who was not with the unit today, was awarded the distinguished service medal for efficient work. Captain H. eV. Young, son of the late Colonel deorge Young and a well known Port land man, will receive his majority at Camp Lewis. He went to Camp Lewis as commander of E company ' and re mained with that unit all during the war. His wife and . mother met him at the station. Captain Young, in. addition to the honor of the promotion, after the war for his efficient services, has been recommended' for the distinguished serv ice medal, which will probably not reach him till after his discharge. OTHERS MAT (JET D.'S. C, Two other officers and .ten soldiers of the regiment are : also recommended for this honor, and Captain W. H. Nelson has been . recommended for . a majority. which will probably., reach him at . Camp Lewis, i - , .. ::,. ....;' Lieutenant Colonel George, M. Rice of Seattle was decorated with the French Legion of Honor by Field Marshal re tain on April ' 8. . The colonel is said to have blushed " noticeably when Marshal Petain, after pinning on his blouse the small red badge,' leaned over and gently kissed him on each cheek. The regiment watted for five months after the- armistice for orders to come home. ' , "We went over and got the place In order for the army to come," explained Major Hauser, "and it looked as though they were going to keep us to clean things up after the army left." Major Hauser was one of the leaders in the movement to start the regiment here, and went as commander of F com pany, after recruiting most of the men for it. A large reception committee met the special at Troutdale, and led , by Mayor Baker, went through the train shaking hands and -welcoming the troops home. Others in the welcoming party included Captain W. K. Wright, Lieutenant Ivan Winding, both former members of the regiment, J. P. ! Jaeger, Lee M. Clark, S. Shirek, Captain H. G. Reed. Captain R. V. Hauser, Captain W. T. Farley, C. F. Hartman, E. R. Rosenthal, J. M. Lewis, Alex Donaldson, R. A. Stewart and George A. Sears. ANGLERS' CLUB ASKS OLCOTT TO LOOK INTO Multnomah Sportsmen Claim That Commercial Interests Influence State Office. Declaring that the Oregon state fish and game commission is dominated by commercial Interests and that through the classification of commercial -salmon as game fish the commission has given practically all of its attention to the propagation of salmon to the neglect of trout, the Multnomah Anglers' club today addressed a ', communication to Governor Olcott demanding an ; imme diate Investigation of the commission to correct this evil. The sportsmen have been at outs with the state fish and game commission for several months past. Several previous communications have been addressed to the governor by officials of the club and anglers feel that the governor must have personal knowledge of the alleged demoralisation in' the administration of fish and game affairs. ....... Among other serious charges, today's communication, which Is signed by R. W. price, president of the Multnomah Anglers', club, declares that the-minutes: of the last meeting-of the fish and game commission will show collusion on the part of the state game warden and . a member of ' the 1 legislature from Lane county In the last' legislature. In the: proposed game : farm , purchased The statement is made that the Lane county representative . withdrew his opposition to certain objectionable features of , the new game code when he was promised the. location, of the' -game farm for his support of the code.

By John Grandenx Berlin. May 12. (Delayed.) (U. P.) Various factions of the Social ists have called mass meetings for tomorrow to protest against the "Im perialistic and capitalistic terms of peace." . . Berlin. May 12. Delayed.) (U, P.) "This peace is not acceptable," Chancellor Scheidemann declared today (Monday), In a speech be fore the national assembly. With this utterance the audience arose to its feet and cheered enthu siastically for several minutes. i "We are willing to sign a peace, but only a peace we can fulfill one that will leave us to work off and pay what is just," said Scheide mann. "We will not fight. Wo want peace. We see with a shudder what brutal militarism leads to, from the example set by the entente. "We want to save the naked life of the country and the people. We are un able to compare the peace terms with Wilson's program. The world is shorn of illusion and Wilson's picture as a bringer of peace has faded. SATS TREATY DOOMS GEEMA5T : "According to the terms, Germany has ceased to exist abroad. Who, as an hon est man. Is able to sign the treaty as it now stands? None! "We want to negotiate, but millions In all countries already are crying aloud their murder plana If this treaty be signed not only will Germany's cada ver be lying on the battlefield of Ver sailles, but It will also be joined by that of the independency of free nations and their faith in the ideals of the entente." ; Scheldemann's speech was applauded throughout except by the radicals, j Open opposition to the treaty by the government, as expressed by Scheide mann and others. Is supplemented by statements from various Germans. j, Herr von Gerlack, one of the leading democrats, said that while he favors signing the treaty he hopes the League of Nations will change the hardest con ditions afterward. He said the indemni ties are beyond Germany's ability to pay. The largest part of the lost terri tories is purely German, he contended, and Its loss, is calculated to create a German - Irredenta. TERMS MEAN SLA VERT WAIL Dr. Stressman declared the terms ,mean slavery and loss of independence. They are a mockery of President Wil son's principles, oh which basis Ger many surrendered, he said, and forecast that the result will be the destruction of European peace. ; He declared "it should be the life task of every "Ger man to revenge this unprecedented de- ceptlon."

Despite the present widespread and spectacllar campaign against signing the treaty, careful inquiries among factional leaders has convinced the correspondent that Germany will accept , the terms when it comes to a "showdown." - Commercial and industrial leaders con sider the terms are more than the maxi mum the alUes expected, and that the latter . consequently will be , willing to bargain, with Wilson In the role of the bargainer . RADICALS BAT TO. SIGN ' The radicals declare the treaty must be signed and that world Socialists will revise the terms later. ' Strongest opposition to the treaty ap pears to be! In the Eastern provinces, especially in West Prussia and East Prussia. , Thousands of telegrams are being received here from those districts, threatening armed resistance if the gov ernment accept the article providing for the Polish corridor, which would sep arate purely German territory in East Prussia, ! nUNS ASK ' PERMISSION TO TALK TO AUSTRIAN'S Paris. May 13. (U. P.) Belief that Germany wljl sign the treaty, after she has exhausted every subterfuge to amel iorate the terms, continued to grow to day. This confidence was strengthened by the report of an allied official who Just arrived! from Berlin. He said that, while there j was Intense excitement in Germany over the peace terms, the peo ple as soon as they recover from the initial shock over what they regard as the severity of the treaty, will force the government; to accept the terms or give way to a ministry that-will. Arthur "Henderson, British labor lead er, who intended to go to London today, is remaining in Paris at the request of Premier Lloyd George to aid In pre paring the answer to the German note concerning labor regulations, which asks for the release of German held war prisoners immediately after the peace treaty is signed. A courier will leave Versailles to night, carrying a note from Foreign Minister Brockdorff-Rantzau which will be transmitted to the Austrian govern ment. The German foreign minister has asked the French foreign office for per mission for three German delegates to meet the Austrians tomorrow in St. Germain, where the latter will be quar tered upon their arrival fom Vienna.

The de mand for Owl service in outlying resi dence sections of the city Is strong, -he says, and the stores located In these districts In other cities do a thriving business. Mr. Miller recently returned from a trip through the eastern states, during which he visited New York, Washington, Pittsburg -and Chicago. Business condi tions are uniformly good throughout, the country, with a prospect for Increasing prosperity on the Pacific coast, he says.
