of European diplomacy, Harding said.
"America would have to acquiesce In
the demolition of her cherished doctrine
or go to war," he added.
DOESJTT ACCUSE PRESIDENT
Harding explained be did not believe
the president would knowingly be a
party to deception of his own country
and he would not accuse foreign repre
sentatives of trying to dupe America,
but there la a misunderstanding which
In any business contract would have to
be clarified before any prudent business
man would sign it
Turning to relations of tha govern
ment toward business. Harding declared
the "pulling and hauling" of business
and application of "weird economic and
social theories by an administration
which could not even run Its own busi
ness." would, if continued, mean a "no
hour day" for American labor. "And
when this bungling administration now
seeks to perpetuate itself in perfect
accord, let us remember that its suspi
cion of business and the use of its
extraordinary war power and Its So
cialistic tendencies have been bullying
and tinkering with the pocketbooks of
all the American people." Harding said.
"Whe I hear the voices of the pres
ent spokesmen of that regime talk about
being progresitlve I recall the activity
made In every direction, except forward,
and especially that which has drawn us
close to an economic business precipice.
WOULD PROTECT BC8ISES8
Outlining his policies toward business,
Harding declared the government must
repeal and wipe out a mass of executive
order and laws which leave business
In anxiety and uncertainty ; readjust the
tariff: readjust Internal taxations and
especially the excess profits tax- and re
move burdens In places on business en
terprise ; stop experiments and enter
prises which the government should not
undertake; establish closer understand
ing between government and business ;
j.rotect business at home and help build
It up abroad ; make government efficient
and make the will of the people instead
of the "will of the willful" supreme.
Throughout Harding emphasised that

BEING PREPARED
The Oregon State Chamber of
Commerce is actively engaged in the
preparation of the program for the
Pacific Northwest Rivera and Har
bors convention to be held in Port
land October 4 and 5, lining up the
speakers and their subjects.
J. M. Hannaford. president of the
Northern Pacific railroad at St. Paul,
notified the. chamber Saturday that he
could give no asauranoe of being able
to attend because of business engage
ments, and that he had ceased giving
addresses under any circumstances, but
that he was deeply interested in the
subject since more satisfactory and
cheaper transportation meant prosperity
for the Pacific coast and would help
the transportation question.
The program will probably be an
nounced within the next week, J. W.
Brewer, field secretary for the chamber,
said Saturday.
Grain shippers are urging the ship
ment of grain to the Tacific coast ports
from points as far east as Central Mon
tana, This would utilize a large number
of otherwise empty cars returning from
eastern points where they carried Ore
gon lumber, and would provide addi
tional cars for transportation of Oregon
lumber east. The railroads are assist
ing in the creation of the sentiment for
the westward haul of the Montana grain.
This question will probably be one of
those discussed at the Portland confer
ence. E, N. Strong and

COK PLEDGED TO
HELP EX-:
Washington, Sept. 11. Governor
Cox, the Democratic nominee, la not
against cash bonus for ex-service
men, but thinks that the "home aid"
plan, endorsed in the Democratic
platform, is the best form of help
for veterans at present, according
to an interview with him which the
Stars and Stripes, a veterans' weekly
published here.
Cox. according to the interviewer, said
that the veterans' plea for compensation
of some sort was "one of the most merit
orious demands for fair play which con
fronts the government of the United
States."
Speaking of Jhe party platform pledge
to "the enactment of soldier settlement
and home aid legislation," he declared:
"That platform I regard as a promis
sory note and I shall see that It is paid,
every dollar and every cent. What Is
more, whether or not the Democratic
platform so stipulated. I feel personally
that I could engage in no more worthy
enterprise, that I could do no greater
service to my country If elected presi
dent than to aid every service man
and woman to become the proud owner
of a home.
"I feel that the Democratic party can
well go before the voters of this great
country pledged to home aid for every
man and woman who responded In the
dark hour, when war clouds hung low
over the ground. I believe firmly in
American homes for American fighters."
"At lea,st 90 per cent of the former
service men were in favor of a cash
compensation. What Is your view of
that, or are you opposed to it?" Cox waa
asked.
"I should not say that," was the reply.
Then he said: "Who was it that said,
'Statesmanship consists of getting the
best possible results at a given time?' So
It Is now with readjusted compensation,
or cash bonus, as some style it. When
the men returned from overseas there
was unequestionably a dire need of
funds. The federal government granted
a bonus of 60. but that 160 would hardly
buy a suit of civvies to replace the war
torn O. D.

VICE
L
PROHI CANDIDATE
Fresh from a strenuous week of
29 lectures in California and two in
Southern Orpgon, D. Leigh Colvln,
prohibition candidate for vice presi
dent of the United States, arrived in
Portland Saturday .morning. Even
though prohibition has become a
part of the national law, Colvin says
his party is carrying on the most
vigorous campaign ever launched.
"We expected that either or both of
the other' parties would come out and
a me ft themselves and line up with the
prohibition Issue," said Colvln. "but we
were doomed to disappointment. Instead
the liquor factions dominated both con
ventions, that is the liquor element in
the 'doubtful' states, and the 'doubtful'
states are the wet states."
Colvln ,said his party is not desirous
of having any more prohibitory laws
passed, but desires enforcement of the
present constitutional amendment. Even
though the country Is nominally dry,
the wets have four chances of nullifying
the amendment, he say a. "They can
Increase the one-half of one per cent
limitation," he continued ; "second, they
can turn the whole matter of legislation
over to the states ; third, they can cut
off the prohibition appropriations, which
Is their most powerful weapon, and
fourth, through administration."
All the wets need to defeat the cause
of the drys Is two offices at Washington,
says Colvln. He named that of the
attorney general and collector of In
ternal revenue.
"Many people get the wrong idea that
the prohibition party is a single issue
party." he said. "We are not. We have
a broad platform. Our record shows that
we were the first party to advocate the
last four amendments to the constitu
tion." Colvln speaks Saturday night at 8
o'clock at Library hall, Sunday at 11
a. m. at the First Nazarene church,
East Tenth and Weidler streets ; at
2 :30 p. m. at Lents Evangelical church,
and 8 p. m. at the First Methodist
church. He leaves Sunday night for
a tour through Washington.
Tendleton, Sept. 11. The Colum
bia highway between Arlington and
Umatilla is practically completed
and from Umatilla to Echo the old
Oregon trail is graveled. The Echo
road to Pendleton will be put in good
shape for the Round-Up, the county
commissioners promise. Rains this
week throughout the west end will
improve former bad road conditions.
A tourist recently making the trip
from Portland to Pendleton said that
it took him as long from Echo to Ten
dleton as It had from Arlington to Echo.
Gravelling has begun over Dead
Man's hill, toward Meacham. east of
Tendeton. A $100,000 contract was let
by the highway commission for gravel
ling this road. The Oregon-Washington
highway to Walla Walla is paved within
one mile of Weston and will probably
be to the east limits of Weston before
winter seta in. Gravelling will be un
der way from there down Dry creek to
Blue Mountain school, leaving a gap of
but five miles unpaved, which will be
gravelled, between Pendleton and Walla
Walla. The only rematning rough road
will then be beyond the state line.
The Old Oregon Trail Is being graveled
from Echo to Pendleton, several miles
of which have had the filler added to
the gravel. This stretch will probably
be completed by the first of January,
thereby eliminating one of the worst
roads tourists and West Umatilla county
travelers have to contend with.
R. H. Baldock, highway engineer for
Baker, Harney and a part of Grant has
been appointed temporarily by Herbert
Nunn, state highway engineer, to as
sume the duties of M. O. Bennett, super
visor of work in Umatilla. Wallowa,
Gilliam, Wheeler, Union and Morrow
counties and a part of Grant, who re
cently resigned to oeprate a wheat ranch
In Montana of 2000 acres.

Negotiations are under way for the

among the attractions offered by the
canyon.

The government attorneys feel they
have scored an advantage by the final

lowing the testimony of Captain Robin
son Ridley a hull Inspector, to be ad
mltted. The defense had succeeded In
keeping this testimony out. but a second
argument late yesterday brought a rul
ing In favor of the government. The
court held the prosecution may submit
evidence to show that the wooden hull,
on which it la alleged the company
received a bonus of J7&00 by fraudulent
methods, was not ready for launching
on the dates claimed by the defense.
The court ruled that such evidence must
be given by someone who knew the facts
and not by a witness who had learned
the facta from other sources. It is
expected Ridley will be the Important

The mayor's telegram was In response
to one from the shipping board, received

proposal to make Portland a separate
district had been carefully considered
and that it did not see the necessity
of such action.
The shipping board. In this message,
expressed the eonvlction that the ship
