THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL- PORTLAND, SATURDAY, MAY 23. 1S20. Gons MEETS ALLEN IN DEBATE ON LABOR RIGHTS New" TorJk.- May if, (U. P.) Strong indications that the Republi can party will be bidding for r ouble if the Chicago convention writes into the national platform a plank dic tated by framere of any radical la bor group, was seen In the remarka of Governor Henry J. Allen of Kan ' saa. in hia debate with Samuel Com pere at Carnegie Hall last night. Allen and Gompere were matched to debate the question of right of labor in ' essential Industries to strike If the com mon welfare is threatened.. On the apeakers' platform were leaders of - workers and others of national repute, Including Roger W. Babsoh. ; Qeorge Gordon Battle. Dr. . Nicholas Murray Butler. Herbert Hoover. Jamea.W. Ge rard. H. P. Davison. George W. Wick eraham. Mlaa Mary Garrett Hayes, War ren F. Stone. Matthew Well, Frank Mor rison and Mrs. Barah A. Conboy. Judge Alton B. Parker presided. It was a no-decision affair, pontics playing no part In It Judge Alton B. Parker, one-time presidential candidate, presided, in his opening words testified to Tils neutrality. "Two great leaders of men. he said, "are to apeak through you to more than 100.000.000 people. What they are to say will command at the outset wider consideration by the presa and people than did the famous Lincoln- Douglaa debate. SOU5D8 HIS KET50TI "Each of them la a man of high I . charaCter-of demonstrated patriotism, . and la endowed with moral courage that enables him to face aU opposition in a struggle for what he believes to be right and Just. But Allen sounded what Was re tarded by many aa the keynote of his potential candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination when he said : "Mr. Compere, within the last three days, has issued an ukase, calling upon all members of organised labor to as semble themselves around the political effort to see that no man gdtea to con gress who Is not In favor of his pro cram. -Do we want that? Do we want a shackled, bridled congress? Let me tell ybu. the political party in the forth coming; campaign that has not the con structive courage to stand Out pledged to the public protection against the wrong and terror of Industrial warfare will travel down the path of cowardice, to defeat." V Carnegie hall was filled to capacity when the debaters entered amidst ap plause. Gompera, wearing a outaway coat, gray trousers and a dark green vest, preceded Allen, who was dressed in a dark blue business suit. Each being ahort of stature and Inclined to atecklness, and with a marked tendency te baldness, they might have been taken for father end son, for GomperS is 70 and Allen but 64. behind them on the platform was a mixture of workers and others of na tional repute. FREEDOM IS DEflWED Under the rules of the debate each speaker had 45 minutes for hia main argument Gennpera spoke firat He was the orator ' of the old school, voluminous both In sound and gesture. Allen's was the oratory of the new school, quiet and conversational. The one appealed to the emotions, the other to deliberate thought. Gompera breugftt forth sharp outbursts of cheer ing and applause as the aged leader of the workers eloquently upheld the virtue ef the strike: Allen commanded less , demonstrative, but none the leas earnest attention. "The difference between a slave and .a free man is that the slave must work when his master commands, while a free man may dispose of himself and his labor according to hts wishes," said Gompera In striking at the crux of his argument against Allen. "I come," said Allen In Opening his reply, "not as a representative of capital or as a representative of labor, but as a representative of us all the public "I speak from the viewpoint of those who aeek an answer to the problem of today. "A free man?" he asked. "Personal liberty?" he reiterated with eloquent sarcasm. "It was my experience in the recent coal strike In Kansas that a majority of the men wanted to work but their union would not let them. "One man one Duffy worked any how. He was suspended from the union for 91 years. The union leaders threat Actual Experience teaches that coffee is often harm ful to health becauso of ' the drug caffeine" which it contains. smotPosiom is free from a harm ful substancesl It is a ddicious cereal bev erage with a coffee -like flavor. hl irely ' hestlihful Try a tin froca the grocer.

ALLEX PRAISES LABOR "That Is the personal liberty the dis tinguished head of the American Feder ation of Labor has been so eloquently speaking of tonight And from this basis Alien moved for ward In his argument There followed argument and counter argument It was difficult to determine - where the majority sentiment of the crowd lay, but It was noticed that a tremendous burst of applause greeted the statement from Allen that: "We have not taken away from any man hia divine right to quit work, but we' have taken from Mr. Gompera 1 hie. divine right to order a man to quit work." , The ovation which greeted this re mark led Allen to turn for this moment to a tribute to the solidarity and the war work of labor "and .keep In mind," he said, "that every man In the mechan ical department of my newspaper Is a anion man." . . , FUND VOTO (Continued From P One). rent was ; f 100 a month. - The publicity manager received 125 a week. McCabe said, the highest salary paid. , Frederlo William Wile, newspaper cor respondent, the next witness, 'refused to divulge the sources of hia recently pub lished dispatches, which said that a 'Jelush fund of $250,000 or upwards" was raised for the Hiram Johnson primary campaign In California. Senator Reed asked Wile if he omitted mention of any Hoover funds because hia articles were published in the Wash ington Herald, a paper partly owned by Hoover. 1 "I have no connection with the Wash ington Herald. I am the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Public Ledger," Wile replied. "Many people are saying that this in vestigation is In the Interest of Mr. Johnson," i Reed said. I AKGER THAI? HOOTER'S Wile said the Johnson fund, as he had been informed, was not so lurcre as that of Wood, and Lowden. "But It was j considerably bigger than that spent In behalf of Mr. Hoover," Wile added. "Were your Informants in possession of exact knowledge, or was it specula tion? Reed asked, and added later: "Doesn't all of this talk come down ts speculation and rumors?" "Not exactly." Wile replied. "I was told positively that 186,000 was raised by Crocker and Roeseter. Further Inquiry into the "invisible Mc Adoo boom" was next begun with Evans S. Harris, Albany, formerly chairman of the New (York Democratic committee, testifying. ! He denied knowledge of McAdoo head quarters In the Pennsylvania hotel. New York, and said Daniel Roper, former commissioner of Internal revenue, who was reported to be boosting McAdoo, had no suite there, although he stopped there. ; . J ; fftO.OOC USED IX CALIFORNIA McCabe said the Johnson forces used about $50,000 In the California campaign between Hoover and Johnson. Billboard advertising cost $1100. he saM, while there was only a small amount of news paper advertising. Hoover had "a tremendous number" of paid workers in Los Angeles and Southern California and they were at the polls on primary day, McCabe said. Hi declared there were 1600 paid Hoover workers In Los Angeles county alone, who got from $10 to $12 each and that 300 students of Stanford university were paid to work" for Hoover in San Francisco. .

May 2. (L N. S.) Student of the University of Wis consin, roused to a high pitch Of anger, today demanded an investi gation of the. death of Carl Jandorf of Grand Rapids, Mich., a sopho more who was shot and" killed Fri day by Policeman Matt Lynaugh while a crowd of - students, Jandrof among; them, were badgering him as he was arresting Julian Luney. one of a number of freshmen wo had made off with a barber pole. ' , The shooting occurred, within a block of the university, after Polleemen Ly naugh had detected the" freshmen load ing the barber pole on a - truck, for kindling for the annual '"green . cap burning," which was to have taken place on the campus Friday night The freshmen ran when they saw, the policeman, but the latter outran Luney and arrested him. , Then Jandorf and several other students appeared. They are said to have demanded Luney's re lease. The policeman declares that Jan dorf struck him and that, he then fired in self-defense, but the students assert that the policeman first kicked Jandorf in the shins and then shot him. TREATY ISSUE KEPT CLEAR BY PRESIDENT (Continued From Pate Oae). appeals from the senate to . the Ameri can people. He wants : a new senate. On the other hand, if the American peo ple sustain the present senate naxt No vember, Wilson can turn over the de velopment of American foreign policy, treaty and all data thereon, to the next president of the United States. I begins to look certain that Wood row Wilson will never withdraw his name from the treaty of Versailles or negotiate a separate peace with Ger many. He regards what the senate has tried to do In the way of a peace reso lution as "an ineffacable stain on Amer ica's, honor," and with that statement he resits his case. If the American peo ple differ with him they can say so at the polls. REPUBLICANS WATCHED s Incidentally Wilson will have his say in the Democratic national platform at San Francisco.- There is no doubt that he will write the plank on the treaty Is8Um himself and that he will then state the case for or agalast reservations, n.aking distinctions then on the subject of nullifying or interpreting reservations. He has the advantage over the Repub licans, for they must meet in Chicago first and declare themselves. They could not afford- to postpone action on the treaty plank until after the Demo crats have met without being open to charges of timidity, and If Johnson is the nominee the Republicans will un doubtedly have declared against (he whole treaty and covenant ; So the president bt6es his time, keeps the treaty of peace at the White House and proposes to do nothing. about send ing it back until the senate manifests Its desire to have it back.?- , N 4 But if two-thirds ot the senate' should get up a round-robin saying what res ervations - they would like to see put upon the treaty, and then submitted this request to the president, he could not afford to ignore it Sue a move might be made after the conventions and serve to befog the political alignments again, especially If the president's side of the argument appears to be making head m ay. . t : - The treaty issue M far from being defined.- The politicians are too resource ful to let Wilson have it all bis way. Comment on the president's veto mes sage was a mixture ef cynicism and sup pressed approval. Most senators realise that the Knox resolution was a poor po litical move, because it was destined to failure. It proposed no international agreement and only the repeal of do mestic laws. On the other hano. Republicans and Democrats alike thought the president's political astuteness was certainly, a bit faulty when he put that sentence about the freedom of seas and reduction of armament in his veto message. He de clared that the Knox resolution did nothing about these two points, and members of congress recalled that Wil son did . nothing about them at Paris either. At least he sidestepped the free dom of the seas and joined in a proposal tc establish simply a, committee of in vestigations on the armament question. Somebody might have censored Wil son's veto message for him 1 and kept these two vulnerable passages out of it. but so far as can be learned, the presi dent' didn't show his veto message to any of his advisers. He is still playing a hone hand. - Launch Beaver Is Damaged by Fire; . Loss Given as $750 Flames which nearly scuttled the large pleasure launch Beaver : broke out In the engine room Of the craft following a backfire of the engine about 8 :30 o'clock this morning. The interior of the craft was practically destroyed and the loss is estimated at 1750. The craft which has been used for passenger duty between the foot of Mor rison street and the Oaks was tied up at the Merrill boat house dock under the Morrison street bridge when the fire broke out. Frank Merrill, owner of the craft was operating the engine when It backfired. Fearing an explosion the harbor pa trol, which reached the scene first towed the craft out Into the river. It was nec essary to tow the launch back to the dock so the land fire companies could extinguish the blase. Radio Measure Is Passed by Senate Washington, May 2$- fU. P.)

The present garbage Incinerator is inadequate to handle the vast increase In refuse that it is called upon to con sume. Bigelow said today. More than 100 tons are burned daily which is fat in ex cess of what the plant was originally equipped to handle.

MODIFICATION ROSEBURG HIGH E SIXTY-SECOi'D STREET DEFECTS MINOR IN GENERAL Pavement on East Sixty-second street between Sandy boulevard and Fremont street. which property owners vigorously protested against Friday morning, is not generally in " bad shape, according to word given out' today by Commissioner Tlarbur, who made a thorough inspection of the surface. Barbur reports, however, that numer ous checks and cracks appear in the pavement but he believes warm weather will do much toward bringing about a smooth surface in the aephaltic top. The real fault lies In the base, says Barbur. He believes the pavement wast laid hen , the base was soft and consequently the top has caved in and loosened in several places. Similar conditions exist in other pavements complained against by prop erty owners, say Barbur. Several samples of the pavement will be examined soon by the city chemical' laboratories with the idea of determin ing whether or not any defecls were due to, the mix. MARSHALL X.
