OLD GUARD HEtD
TO BE IN FULL
SENATE CONTROL
Progressive Republicans-Are De
dared Too Few to Offer Any
: Opposition to Reactionaries.
Washington, Nov.-, 13. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU' OF THE JOUR
NaL. j Inspection of the Redlgrees
and proclWltles of new senators
lected In the Republican sweep,
discourages the idea that the pro
gressive Republicans will have
enough members to organize any ef
fective opposition to reactionary
"plan's iider the Harding adminis
tration. New alignments may read
ily arise, but on the face of things,
.Penrose, Lodgi and Brandegee will
.be able to enforce discipline and
carry things' about as they wish, I
The conservative leaders have iio
'anxiety about the house. The majority
Is so largo Uiat everybody would mar
fvel if insurgency made any great head--way
for some time to come. Their only
concern was the senate, where it was
: feared '. that the militant progressives,
i led by Johnson and Borah, plus La Kol--lette
and Ladd, the latter the new sen
.' ator from North Dakota, who may act
"as free lances,, would upset the deal.
Wlth a 22 majority In the' senate this
; danger Is thought to be removed, for j
nly eight senators are 'definitely count
; ed in the progressive ftnd free lance
: group.
r JITTABT CarjTTED PR06EESSITE
i. In addition to La Follette and Ladd,
.' this reckoning Includes Johnson of Cali
fornia, Borah of Idaho, Kenyon of
Iowa, Capper of Kansas, Norris of Ne
; braska and - McNary , of Oregon. These.
: senators, by their past records, i are
against the kind of reactionary legisla
tion favored by Penrose, in deallpg, for
example, with taxation questions and
'the packers. They may have help; ce
il caslonally from other senators, jbut
against such defections Penrose usually
; can count a email quota of reactionary
"Democrats, and thus his hold seems
fairly secure. ; ''", j.
' ' Cummins of -Iowa, McCormick of lllli
nols and Poindexter of Washington for-
merly were counted as progressives,! but
' that is no longer true. ,Thcy have fal
len in line In the last few years 1 and
S are probably . about . as dependable for
'Penrose as the old standby s have been.
. The only danger to-the Penrose clique is
? In another group of senators of lnde
: pendent mind,: who do not take orders
I Indiscriminately, such as Townsend of
, Michigan, Nelson and Kellogg of Minne
sota, Hale of Mains and some of the
4 new Westerners, who are to be "broken
In" after they appear' here. j
ST AX FIELD AMONG KELIABLES
Reports concerning the new senators
' for the most part indicate that they' will
play "follow, the leader" without much
( question, with a fw possible exceptions.
Khortrldge of California, Gooding of
- Idaho, Stanfield of Oregon, Ernst of
"Kentucky, Nfcholson of Colorado i and
McKinley of Illinois, to name only a few,
I are counted as reliables for the domi
, rant organizations. ' ' ' i :
These alignments, of course, have no
reference to the League of Nations, on
which a different division appears, the
; most rampant progressives being: also
the most rampant bitfer-enders. On' the
league question, the Irreooncllables have
a minimum- strength tf 24, and a po
tential strength much greater, with only
33 votes needed to block ratification of
any agreement to which they, do not
, subscribe. ,
Postponed, bonus legislation
of the late war will be one
problems confronting y. the s Republican
majority in conrress when the session
is resumed IB December. The house
passed a bill just before adjournment
in June, but it received no consideration
on the senate side.; ; j
This presents a real difficulty, because
of the expenditure of .nearly two bil
lions of dollars involved. Under the
house plan It is not proposed !to pay
all of this sum at once, but if extended
over two years the addition of this
amount to the budget is a cause for
concern at a time when the party com
ing Into power made tax reduction one
of its claims for popular support. ;
HABDI3G NOT SPECIFIC j i
President-elect Harding has not ex
pressed himself on the bonus except in
the most general terms. He has talked
about dealing generously with the men
who fought the, war, but no one has
attempted to say that by this he meant
the payment of the bonus. He has, on
the other hand, been Inclined to oppose
federal land settlement legislation,
5Tffts Emergency Fleet's
Employes Gather;
Body Is Permanent
Planning to perpetuate the friendship
formed in service for the government
during the war, employes and ex-employes
of the Emergency Fleet corpora
tion gathered Thursday evening at the
Automobile club and perfected a per
manent, organization.
During the war an organisation of
fleet" corporation employes was formed,
but this was only for employes. The
by-laws were amended to permit per
manency of the club and the admis
sion of former employes to the - ranks.
An invitation was extended to all
employes and -110 answered the call,
assembling at the Northwestern Na
tional Bank building at 4 o'clock.

Strong opposition appeared to that part
of the plan in the house, and it . was
only retained after Western members
had exerted themselves to the utmost.
The election is believed to have given
impetus to the soldier bonus movement.
State bonus plans were submitted to
the people in. several states and they
appear everywhere to have ' carried by
enormous majorities. '
NEW YORK FAVORS IT f
In New York state the majority for
it is estimated over 1,000,000. the New
York' city voters alone' approving It
by 400.000. ; The New York law will
give each man $10 a month for each
month of service, not exceeding f 250, and
it w-ill include all the men who went to
war from New York up to the rank
of jcaptaln, probably 400,000 in all.
Washington also voted affirmatively on
the soldiers' bonus.
The senate finance committee has the
bonus ' bill at present, and Chairman
Penrose will be 4aked to take it up
Immediately. The committee i.will de
cide whether further hearings should
be held, the house having held exten
sive hearings last spring. Penrose is
not believed to be' enthusiastic about it
and the course of the measure will 'be
watched with interest. Penrose is un
derstood tq dislike the land settlement
feature, and members Of the committee
have said that the house bill would
have to -be entirely recasted before it
can pass the senate. - j '
In the end It seems likely that some

Officers Elected
By Sons of Eli

The sons of Eli and the cubs of the
Tiger met at a luncheon at the Uni
versity club Saturday afternoon to re
ceive the returns from the Yale-Prince,
ton game by special wire.
Immediately after the last cheer hacl
rung out the two bodies adjourned for
the election of officers. The - men of
the Yale Alumni Association of Oregon
elected Hopkin Jenkins, president ; Rob
ert H. Noyes, vice president, and
Thornton H. Hunger, secretary.
The Princeton Alumni Association of
Oregon was organized and elected J.

sion, and It may be In very different
form from the pending bill. Further
postponement Is expected to meet with
vigorous protest from the American
Legion, and other organizations, but the
plea of the leaders is that with all the
appropriation measures and emergency
matters pressing upon the short session,
the time is too short for general legis
lation Involving expenditures of such
magnitude.;

Chief of Police Leo V. Jenkins
will reconynend to Mayor Baker that
Patrolmen Huntington and Russell
be suspended from the police force
for 30 days, according to an an
nouncement made last night.
Chief Jenkins came to this decision
after considering the return of the effi
ciency board, which completed Its hear
ing of the investigation of whiskey graft
charges against the two patrolmen last
evening. Jenkins said last night that in
al! probability he would recommend a
permanent dismissal from the force for
the two men.
Under civil service regulations, no pa
trolman who has been, on the force for
over six years can be.suspended for more
than 30 days without the approval of the
civil service, commission.
Since both patrolmen .come under this
provision, the term is limited to SO days.
Official action will not be taken until
Monday morning when the recommenda
tion of the chief .Is forwarded to the
mayor. . . ' - ' . '
MAYOR WILL ACT'
Mayor Baker said last night that he
had not received the chiefs recommenda
tion yet. He stated that upon receipt!
of such a recommendation, he will give
the two men a hearing and investigate
all the evidence in the case. He is re
quired to do this by the civil service:
regulations. If the chief recommends
permanent dismissal and if he .finds the
evidence in the case warranting such ac-'
tion, he is in a position to act at once.
The men then have the right to appeal!
his decision to the civil service board.
The mayor stated last night that he
was out to clean up the town, regardless
of rank or position of the victims.
"The higher they are the better." said,
the mayor. "We have been watching:
things closely for some time and we are
preparing to act"
POL1CEMEX MAKE ADMISSION
Huntington and Russell are said to
.have admitted to the police efficiency
board, which has been investigating;
charges s gainst them, that they agreed!
to pay off "Johnny" Marshall, a stool:
pigeon in their service, with confiscated
whiskey. 1
The whiskey, which Was taken In a raid
on the home of William Gilbert and
Lewis Emera, was placed In Sergeant
Ellis' office at police headquarters.' Gil-j
bert and Emera testified that 33 qUarts
were confiscated. The property clerk in
checking over the amount turned lp to
him found only 15 quarts. !
Sergeant Ellis claims that he did not
know how much whiskey was taken la
the raid or how much was placed in his
office after "the raid. He says that if
there was an understanding that the
stool pigeon was to receive his pay in
whiskey, he knew nothing of It at alL He
testified to all of these acts before the
board, according to members at the
hearing.
