CATT PUTS ONUS ON SOLONS 10 STOOD OUT Borah, Wadsworth, Pomerene and Hitchcock Are Charged With Blocking Suffrage Amendment. Chicago. Feb. 13. (U. P.) The enemy of woman suffrage ia "a fly sitting on the wheel of progress." Imagining he can command It "to revolve no more and that It will ey." Mn. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the National Suffrage association, said In her opening ad dress at the convention of the organ ization here today. Mrs. Catt reviewed the battle for the federal suffrage amendment, citing the difficulties which were overcome in curing Its passage by congress and In the present fight for quick ratifi cation by the states. She attacked Senators Borah of Idaho, Wadsworth of New Tork. Pome rene of Ohio and Hitchcock of Ne braska as "refusing to represent their states' In the sixty-fifth congress when the amendment failed to pass. "As the amendment needed but a single vote in the sixty-fifth congress, the responsibility for its failure to psaa may be laid upon any one of the four," ah said. "They not only put their own states to the expense of extra sessions, but the other states as well." Mrs. Catt called on suffragists to rally to the support of any governors who may be attacked by their political opponents for bringing the extra ex pense of special sessions on their re spective states. When a Republican governor calls a special session in . order to ratify, he merely atones for the Inexplicable con duct of two members of his own party," Mrs. Catt said. "They, not he. are blamable for the fact that the special session became necessary. "Tha Democratic governor who calls a special session only makes honorable amends for the misrepresentation by members of his own party." Tha executive committee of the suf frsge sssoclatlon was to meet early to day to vote on the plan to dissolve the organisation when the federal amend ment Is finally ratified. Little, doubt waa expressed by members of the coun cil before the meeting that action rec ommending dissolution of the associa tion and urging members to Join the new League of Women Voters would be taken. Suffragists were Jubilant today when, they learned that Arizona haJ ratified tha federal amendment. It was the thirty-first state to .approve of the amendment. Five more are needed. tJNIOir IS AIM Describing the work of the conference , Mrs Catt said : 'In every conference yesterday, the league made It clear that It is not to dissolve any present organization, but to unite all existing organizations of women who believe In Its principles. It IS not to create sex antagonism, but to develop cooperation between men and e I Victor Record You've Been Looking for Prompt Mailing Service 1644 I Where the River Shannon Flows MacDonough S5e Sweet Genevieve Will & Hayden Quartet 117IS Kohalo March 8e 1 Honolulu March .... 1414 J Two Indian Songs Frincess Watahwaso SSe ' Four Penobscot Tribal Songs l49f Waters of Venice Walls Violin-Accordion' 85c (Good-Bye, Alexander Kox Trot Violin-Accordion lS6e Oh What a I'al Was Mary liarr f.r ' Dear Heart ..Steel 1817 Alcoholic Bluee Fox Trot ...

Mclnerney and one or two others," Morgan replied. "Were you in the hall at the time of the shooting?" "Yes. sir." ' "Where?" "By the stove." "Who came in just before the shoot ing?" "Elmer Smith." (the attorney), an sweted the witness. JSorcan said Attorney Smith went to the back of the hall and talked with Britt Smith. The conversation was not overheard. As the attorney was leaving the hall, he stood by the door, Morgan declared, and asked Britt Smith if he was sure that he had plenty of men. "Smith said, 'Yes, sir,' " Morgan added. Later Britt Smith, the witness con tinued, was In the front of the hall, pointing out over the street towards the Avalon, the Queen and Arnold rooming houses. He was then talking to a group of men and among them were Wesley Everest, the man who was lynched ; Becker, Mike Sheehan and Loren Rob ets. They were grouped about a small table. SMITH GIYYES DIRECTIONS Smith was telling them to get front rqoms in the Avalon, Arnold, the Queen and the Roderick, according to the wit ness. The Roderick was in the same building as the I. W. W. hall, but up stairs. " "It's kind of nice for an attorney to come In and tell you to do your duty,' Britt Smith said," Morgan testified, in telling of Attorney Elmer Smith's visit. The defendant. Commodore Bland, came into the hall with a rifle wrapped in a black overcoat, the witness said. The rifle waa taken to the back of the hall. Britt Smith asked Morgan If he wanted a rifle, the witness asserted, and he replied that he did not. Everest took Mike Sheehan to the back of the hall and talked to him about a rifle, Morgan said. The wit- 0.038 added that Bert Bland also come into the hall and talked about going to change his clothes. Attorney Abel then introduced a brown suit of clothing, reputed to have be longed to Bert Bland. It was identi fied by Morgan as resembling the cloth ing the defendant wore at the time and was entered aa an exhibit for further identification. HOW DAVIS HID RIFLE "Davis (a defendant in the case who has not been apprehended) came into the hall with a rifle down his pants' leg," said Morgan. illustrating how the weapon was carried. "He was walking stiff legged and his fellow members were laughing at him, and he took it out and wrapped It in an overcoat. He had the gun down his leg as he came into the hall." Later, Davis went down on the street and towards the Avalon hotel, carrying the overcoat and gun, the witness testi fied. Barnett went out of the hall a little ahead of Davis. Mclnerney cautioned them. If captured not to "holler," Morgan saiS. and this caution was voiced from cell to cell again in the Centralia pall that nig;ht. Morgan also , identified the defendant Bert Faulkner, but was not sure that he was in the hall at the time the shootiag took place. "I saw Britt Smith pointing out to him the rooming houses across the I street." Morgan said. I "Didn't he say something to Britt ;' about doing his duty?" the prosecutor ' asked. i HIS OW5T DEFENDER I Colonel Harvey 3.

Police Have Furious Hide to Catch Boy For Stealing Auto After a chase of over two miles, Pa trolmen Rockwell and Reed arrested Clinton Toung, late Thursday night, at Fourteenth and Savler streets for the alleged theft of an automobile belong ing to Laura Rich. SS3 Hawthorne avenue. Young's peculiar actions as he drove the car past the two patrolmen, who had stopped to talk for a minute on a street comer, in Smith Portland, led them to believe that the automobile bad be!R stolen. , They stopped a passing car- belonging to L. A. . Stevens and cave ehaaa te Young." Young'a car Was halted at a railroad crossing by a pass ing train. He evidently suspected that he waa followed, for he abandoned bis machine and hid In a pig pan close to the .railroad tracks.

Hamilton stumbled down the stairway and Into a classroom where the Reed Psychology club was holding an evening session Dr. Helen Clark, professor of psychology, was reading a paper on "Mystery." Hamilton, his face streaming with blood, staggered through the room and out again: "Now," Dr. Clark directed, "will the FIGHT TO STOP SALE0F SHIPS (Continued From Pag One.) consider whether to sell the ships or not. Senator King went to the telephone during the discussion and asked Payne regarding the alleged purpose to sell the fleet for 128.000,000. PAY5E DENIES REPORT "Judge Payne assures me." said King, "that there ia not a scintilla of truth In the charge that an agreement has been made with the International Mer cantile Marine to sell It "the German Ships for 28,0Qp,000." Ashurat urged immediate action on the resolution. Constitutional prohibition, which makes government-owned passenger vessels dry, was given by Payne as the main reason for the sale of the 2d for mer German liners. Government operation of these vessels under such conditions cannot be suc cessful and the ships can be sold to better advantage now than later, in the opinion of the board. Payne declared In a letter to Representative Mead, New York, today, Payne pointed out that the cost of reconditioning 20 of the liners would be $57,000,000, while the bids for these ves sels were $20,000,600. "In view of the present situation," Payne wrote, "it did not seem to us we were Justified in incurring so large an expense" The chipping board chairman denied the vessels would fall into the bands of foreign interests, because the vessels will be sold only under the condition that they shall remain under the Ameri can flag and be sailed In routes indi cated by the shipping board. "This, we believe, will adequately pro tect the United States," Payne wrote. NEW MURDER CLUE (Continued From Pat One) I colony here. County Judge TazweQ to- : .a j n m ttAAA a aay oruerea me posting 01 eiuuvi rewaru for information that will disclose the alleged murderer of Descampa or that will prove the dismembered parts of a body found on the East Side are hia ADMINISTRATOR IS UAMED 1 This reward is payable from Des campa' estate, and the order was made by Judge Tazwell at the same time that he appointed Hector Moumal, member of the French colony here and friend of Descamps, administrator of Deacamps' affairs. Descamps' fcttorneys, Joseph St Haney, estimate hia property is worth upward of $75,000. Moumal's bonds were fixed at $5000 by the court. Some opposition to the appointment of Moumal was expressed by other friends of Descamps, but this disappeared when Henri Labbe, French consul, guaranteed to supervise the administration of the estate by Moumal. WILL IXAMIIT PAPERS Labbe was anxious to have an admin istrator named so that authority to examine Descamps' papers at his home and in his safety deposit boxes could be given with the hope of obtaining some clue to enemies who might desire his death. There are numerous letters scattered about the premises at his Beaverton home, for the most part written In French. His safety deposit box ia be lieved to contain many valuable securi ties. Hector Moumal, the administrator, is a father-in-law of Deputy Sheriff Chris tofferson, who has been active In work ing on the disappearance of Descamps. DECAMPS WAS WIDOWER Police learned Thursday that Des camps was a widower Instead of a bachelor. Detective Golts found a card in the Frenchman's home at Beaverton on which was written the address of Mrs. Anna C. Callendar, 639 Lovejoy street. When called on the telephone. Mrs. Cal lendar said sho waa Descamps' sister-in-law. Her sister. Mrs. Katherlne Minor Storts. rfnarried the former Sa loonkeeper in 1902 and died In X905. Mrs. Callendar could give no clue to aid in tracing the man, though she mot him on a train coming to Portland from Beaverton about two weeks ago. The police department continues to concentrate- on the mystery, but Thurs day saw no new developments of Im portance. 5 Deaths From Flu In 36 Hours; 144 New Cases Reported Five deaths from Influenza during the past 38 hours were reported to the city health bureau this morning, which brought the fatalities in Portland to 34 since the start of the present epi demic, Spiro Kagler, aged 30, and Joe Gor man, 71 years old, died at the influenza hospital In South Portland late Thurs day night Tha death of Jacob Stadler, Helvetia hotel; Mra.

ACCUSED OF PROMISING io in JUDGES (Continued From Pu On. J victed on a charge of assault and rob bery with a dangerous weapon. His case was taken on appeal to the state supreme court and a decision on this appeal was pending in the early part of August of that year when, he recalled. Commissioner Fletcher, King, Alder man Castator and Henry visited him in hia drug store at Flint. King, ac cording to the witness, opened the con versation thus: "Only about two weeks remain be fore the primaries and I am mak ing my last trip through the state ironing out the rough spots. You seem to S)e one of the rough spots. Tou know, your organization might help us out. What do you need to -give us your assistance? We have a large expense account and we can allow you what you may require in the way of. paying ex penses you might Incur." AJtOU31EKT CHANGES FROXT At this point McKeighan said he cut King off with this reminder. "1 am not for Newberry," whereupon he swore Commissioner Fletcher took over the argument. "I told you," he Is quoted as saying, turning to King, "that it won't do us any good to talk money to him. He knows how I stand at Lansing. He knows that I'm In shape to see that his case is either reversed or affirmed. If he carries hia district for Newberry he'll not go to jail. If he doesn't carry it for Newberry he will go to jail." "A sentence of from 2 to 15 years was standing against me then," Mc Keighan said. "I figured I had better be on the safe side. So well, I kinda sided with Newberry. "I told my main supporters to see that Newberry carried my district," "And the disposition of your case In the supreme court?" asked Frank C. Dalley, special assistant attorney gen eral. "The verdict against me was re versed." WITNESS TTVDER CROSS FIRE Attorney Littleton during cross ex amination went at the witness with a degree of violence that was surprising. "Did you honestly believe." he de manded, "that those men could influ ence your etate supreme court?" "I hardly believed It," McKeighan an swered, "but I didn't believe In taking chances, either. Sometimes, politics Is funny." He explained that his case was taken up by the supreme court some time near November, 1918. "Judge Murfin waa there that day," he said, pointing to the defense at torney. This did not please Murfin nor Littleton. Littleton tried to establish the fact that the supreme court decision was rendered in spite of the fact that Mc Kelghan's district did not "go for New berry." "Yes. my district was carried for Newberry," the witness shot back with assurance. "We were talking about the primary. According to my talk with Fletcher that's what I had to promise to deliver. After the primary I quit being a Newberry man." "You thought It might be safe to quit Newberry after the primary?" the law yer sug&estetf. CHARGE 18 REITERATED "Yes after the primary, but not be fore." At several times during the cross examination McKeighan reiterated his assertion that Commissioner Fletcher had definitPly used' the words "If you carry your district in the primary for Newberry t$&e supreme court will re verse your case ; if you don't carry it the supreme court will affirm it." "I didn't have to promise to back Newberry, because Fletcher said he didn't want me to promise. "The way my district went would ppeak for' itself," the one time mayor explained.
