THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 21, 1920- MY A UN F ANDAVO DSAPPEAL Commrssioner Turns $275 Over .to Treasurer Rather Than Go to Higher Court With Case. Eed Cross Sale of Donated Articles Is ; To Be Conducted Although by a majority vote of the eotintjr commissioners of Mult nomah ooiinty, District Attorney Kvans Wa been instructed to perfect an appeJbj to the state supreme court from tho decision of Circuit Judge Percy Kelly in the locally famous , "fra8olIns case," County Commis sioner JtufuB Holman has taken the position that he does not desire to participate in this contest. Holman has made full settlement f or his share In the gasoline coupon books furnished the" three members of the board of county commissioners. The euit was Instituted by John TV. Kaate, to restrain the county from pay ing the warrants issued ' for gasoline coupon books and other supplies for ihe commissioners In compensation for the use of their cars In public business. Judge Kelly decide that this plan of compensation was against public policy, ns the commissioners were,.iu fact, deal ing with themselves, and that lloyt and Holman should pay the oil companies Tor such portions of thir coupon books as they had used" for supplies for their cars when on private business. Com missioner Muck was held, to have used i his supplies solely in county work. Commissioner Holman has sent to District Attorney Evans, to be used -in the settlement of his account with the county, a check for $275.18 in favor of County - Treasurer Lewis, in full, pay- ment of supplies furnished him even prior to the time the legality of the procedure was being questioned. In his letter Holman says: 'So far as I am concerned, I do not favor the appeal of the case to the supreme court, although I know that th policy which the board of commis sioners was following in tills particular was the most economical one from an administrative standpoint. This, I be lieve, is demonstrated by a statement ;of the city auditor, which I enclose. "Although the commissioners believed that there was legal authority for the order of September 27, 1918, yet when the legality of the policy was ques tioned I immediately ceased to operate under it, and now remit in full for those expenses incurred by me even prior to 'the legality of the proceedings being questioned. "My reason for not favoring an appeal is that I . prefer to make the county a present of this expense to which I have been put in the discharge of my public duties rather than have my personal motives questioned, which I believe they would be by a further prosecution of the case." The American Red Cross wlU hold a public auction of " donated articles Wednesday night t - Sixth and Alder streets as a climax of the membership drive. I. J. Finn will act as auctioneer. Articles pledged for the auction include a $200 phonograph, electric iron, a gal lon of hot beans, a blooded goat, dressing table, chair, 'candy, three pairs of shoes, cans of fruit, phonograph records', a bil liard cue, automobile tire, scholarships in trade schools, 50 lbs. of cottage cheese, 25 lbs. of ' sphagetti and macaroni, rub ber heels, box of apples, gloves, baby clothes, cans of coffee, neckties, sack of coal, cans of syrup, stationery, floor paint, lard, cameras, soap, preserves and cakes. .

Prepaid Boston, Nov. 20. (U. P.) Speak ing as a "Republican, basing his opinion's entirely on the declarations of the party and the policies of its candidate," United States Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, in an address at a banquet given in his honor by the Roosevelt club here tody. de clared that so far as the lUnited States is concerned, the League of Nations is dead. "The court from which ther is no appeal has spoken in terms whiclj connot be misunderstood," Lodge declared, re ferring to the league. "The president and the congress chosen by the people of the United States will deal with this great question of our policy abrpad. It will not be further dealt with in ny way by an administration which has been discarded and which has little more than three months to live." "The responsibility is very great, but we don't shirk it and we are confident that a result can be obtained by follow ing the policies outlined by Senator Hard ing, which will enable us to ;promote the peace of the world without jlncuring dangers to our independence Knd our constituted system of government, which the people of the United States1 will not submit'.' i At an unusual price concession enables us to offer ourt patrons best standard makes at an important saving.

Under that line of reasoning some of Harding's friends hope the problem will not be on the White House doorstep after March 4. Unquestionably there are some inter ests which are counselling the Mexicans to delay a settlement beyond March 4, because the interests really believe mil itary intervention can best be brought about under, a Republican administra tion. , Our state department is aware if some of these subtle processes which are not all friendly, either, to what is believed here to be the real desire of a man like President-elect Harding. On the trip to the Southern border the dispatches have conveyed the im pression that Mr. Harding, too, wants an amicable setUement of disputes 'with Mexico. WILSOJf'S VIEWPOINT President Wilson's viewpoint through out the last eight years has been that eventually the Mexicans would them selves straighten out their affairs and that the chaos of revolution was not likely to be removed in a decade, as wit ness the slow processes by which Russia is struggling for self-possession. There is no doubt that the present occupant of the White House would like to round out his tej-m with the Mexican problem on the road to settlement Men who are planning new business enterprises and development are waiting, moreover, for the act of recognition. Nevertheless the department of state is firm in its determination ' that something better than promises must be forthcoming be fore recognition is extended. If the Mex - icans are misled Into thinking they can ret easier terms with the nvt admin istration in Washington especially w hen- u prooaDiy win take a long time be fore the Harding administration will be -ready to tackle Mexican matters on ac count of the press of other questions, then "the disposition here is tnat the fmericans who advise such a " course bear the consequences. The whole thing is up to the Mexi cans. There are no insuperable-obstacles. . Thanksgiving Plea For Home Made by 'Mother ' Lawrence "Mother Lawrence, head of the Pisgah home, has. issued an appeal for aid In providing Thanksgiving cheer for the members of her "family."
