WEATHER TtJItirS RAIIfT -While the parade was the big event of the second day of the festival, a dozen other attractions attracted the " attention of the public. Sensational i f aerial feats, performed above the busl- ness section of the city; the. cruiser Minneapolis, the flying field at the "'municipal golf links at Eastmoreland, all helped amuse Portland. Theatres, the carnival, the oriental concessions in the North Park blocks, the rose show at the Auditorium, and the great musical festival In that building In the evening were some of the special fea tures. Until 6 o'clock the weather was per fect About that time, however, the weather man, after 39 hours of good behavior, could hold off no longer, and all the pent up moisture of the heavens started coming down at once. Weather predictions, however, indicate fair skies today. CIBCUS DOES STUISTS " Thursday's celebrations started at 10 o'clock, when the members of the army --- flying circus tuned up their machines - and took to the air from the field on the city's golf links. For several hours .they astounded the Inhabitants of the city by daring aerial performances. " Numerous sporting events, such as the 1 fly - easting contest at Sellwood pool, a shoot by the Gun club at Jenne station, and the state-golf championships played at the Waverly Country .club, each at tracted its own coterie of followers. During the course of the parade, all of Portland gathered on the downtown streets to watch the thousands of vet erans parade the streets. Perfect order was maintained and no " accidents or - disorders were reported. Three half in toxicated youths who attempted to force , their attentions on ladies were promptly gathered in by the police and locked up - in Jail. , Considering the great number of out -. of town visitors, the children on the - downtown streets and the great number of machines from other towns and cities. police officials declare that It was re markable Shat no accidents occurred during the day. MARINES tfAVB BA5CE The principal event of the evening was the Victory -Song festival at the Auditorium. Driven from the streets by the rain, a crowd of -people assem bled in the building to listen to the music of the great pipe organ and the chorus of S00 voices under the director- shin of Professor W. H. Boyer. Crowds continued to visit the display, of roses at the Auditorium, and the array of flowers and shrubs at Festival center. The Lane o' Laughter continued to draw large Crowds. Practically all the ex members of the United States Marine corps, residing in Portland, were guests at the Devil Dog dance, given by local ex-marines at the Jduitnoroaa notau ';"-:!. ....' .' , v- - ',' - -f J rK-"' Tr-rA-il 1 t Hill . 4;t st ri , CvM 1Uf y-f o .

CLIMAX IS CAPPED But on Thursday afternoon the boys capped the climax of their success when they spent several hours at their nair raising stunts In the sky. Enslcn Lee ascended Jn his plane 10 a dizzy, height above the business section of the city. From his high place n turned the rose of his .winged monster down toward earth spinning arouna like a great top, the big plane dropped several hundred feet, just as easuy a bird changes Its course, the wings were righted, the plane soared off gracefully and. finally turned Its pro peller toward the river. Straight down, dashing at terrific speed and without a . quiver of Its wings, the - hydroplane dived for the water. , To the lips of thousands of watchers a prayer for the safety of the daring youth came vol untarily when his machine disappeared liv a dropping meteor behind the low est buildings, it seemed only a few feet from the surface of the water north of the Haw thorne bridge, a rushing speed main tained, that Ensign Lee rigntea me Dig navy bird aa.jralmiy as one migni turn a corner in walking. Swoopln close to the wter the hydroplane dashed under the draw of the Hawthorne pnoge, not touching a thread of Its great bulk on water or bridge, and, once cleared, started on its flight into the clouds again. - - - Crowds watching from the bridge did not cheer Ensign Lee as promptly as his wonderful feat might have war ranted.

OFFICES RAIDED Search, for Evidence of Revolu tionary Movement May BringV Reprisals in Russia. New Ybrk, June-1- a At taches ofi the Russian soviet mission to the United States gave- warning today that Americana in Bussia might be en dangered by the action of members of New York state constabulary and private detectives who raided the mis sion's offices here yesterday. The state troopers were armed with a search warrant from a city magistrate and also with - subpenas duces tecum from the New York state legislative committee meeting here to investigate revolutionary movements : within . the state. ' They summoned I A. Martens, head of the mission, and- A. A. Heller, director of the commercial department.' who were examined by the committee behind closed doors. v Santari Nuerteva. secretary or the mission, today characterised - the raid as an outrage. He said that despite the , fact that the . Bolshevlki government. of which - Martens is the -ambassador to the United States.", has not been rec ognised at Washington, the BolsbeviKi treated the- American ambassador in Petrograd with the greatest courtesy and protected the lives and property of Americana in .Russia. Other attaches said when news of the raid reaches Russia it may be difficult to restrain the Bolshevlki from making reprisals' against American citizens and their property. Among those caught in the net was John Reed, former Portland, Or., man, and erstwhile- - consul " general of the Bolshevist government in the United States. Reed, was permitted to leave, as were aOl hands, after pedigrees had been taken and an Inventory , made of the records and papers, which were re mittee. ' - - . FRAYNE SAYS REDS WOULD ; OVERTHROW GOVERNMENT New i York, June 13. A movement to bring about the Immediate overthrow of the- United States government was - re vealed Thursday by Hugh J. Frayne. general organizer of the American Federation of Iabor testifying at the ocening session of the lyuEk committee appointed by tp New York legislature to Investigate Bolshevism. "Certain elements," said Tayne, -are scheming for the overthrow-of this gov ernment by the use of force and vio lence." - . The witness absolved the. American Federation' of Labor from any com- Diicitv in this movement, it was engi neered , solely by the extreme radical elements of the labor movement, he said. These elements he divided into three classes, anarchists, syndicalists and Socialists. The American Federation of Labor is nearly 100 per cent loyal to the country as it is possible to be," he added, "and it opposes as a matter of general principle any move that has for its purpose the destruction of the fundamentals of our government." - - TTtt trances and writings ef : Emma nnMman and Vincent St. John.
