UPON PRINCE FEE
, Were the cervices of Wlnthrep
Hammond as guardian for two years
for the late Thoma Prince, wort
$100,000? This is the, question at
issue in a hearing before Presiding
Judge Tacwell on the final account
of the guardianship. . -
After devoting much of the time of
court sessions Thursday to hearing of
testimony, -Taswell, continued the case
until January I, so that C. MMlfman,
one of the attorneys, could make a trip
to the Bast tn regard to the estate. A
payment of $10,000, on accoount, was al
lowed Hammond.-
Trlnce had an estate of approximately
$1,000,000. of .which $700,000 was located
In the eastern states, in charge of a
trustee. 3"he Oregon properties amounted
to approximately $100,000. About two
years before his death, which occurred
February 3. 120, the mental and physi
cal condition of Prince became such that
-the court appointed Hammond guardian.
Frince, H la said, had become the prey
of unscrupulous persons who had un
loaded upon him properties at several
times their real worth, securities of
doubtful value and had induced him to
supply funds for various business enter
prises that were much 'complicated and
uncertain as to outcome..
Wallace McCamant, attorney for the
Judiciary, said It required six months'
time to get the Prince affairs in such
shape that the making of an Inventory
.was possible; but at that time the in
ventory -shewed the Oregon portion of
the Prince estate to be $412,000,' against
which - war outstanding obligations of
from $175,000 to $200,000. But for the
skillful work of Hammond,. said his at
torney,'1 the entire Oregon assets would
have been swept away, yet at the close
of his guardianship he was able to turn
over to the executor $3J7,7J7.S2.
C. M. Idleman is attorney for Dr. H.
F. Ong. executor of the estate, who Is
resisting the Hammond claim in behalf
of six residuary, legatees, who' allege
Hammond's claim to be excessive.

Multnomah County
Delegation Quizzed
On Pet Subjects
Questions put to members jof the
Multnomah county delegation to the
state legislature" Thursday at the week
ly luncheon. Of the Portland Press club
brought forth determined expressions
of opinion oa pet subjects. The pro
gram waa in charge of Representatives
Eugene F. Smith and D.'C Lewis, who
called upon Herbert Gordon, K. K.
Kabli, J. D. Lee, Gus Moser and W.
W. Banks. '
Gordon was asked about the teachers'
tenure bill, which he opposed in 1917
when a member, of the educational
committee. Hs. declared himself still
an objector unless an ago limit is de
fined and recognition is given efficient
teachers as compared- with the Ineffi
cient. Amendments suggested up to the
present time, he said, did not satisfy
him.
Senator Banks; when queried in re
gard to the Japanese question, said he
believed it a national and not a state
matter, and held that drastic- local leg
islation might do serious injury to Pa
cific Coast trado with the Orient. Con
ditions in Oregon, . he added, do not
merit this state following California's
example. Senator Moser, who Is one
of the committee drafting the port bill,
expressed a hope that the measure
would be unanimously indorsed by the
delegation from this county.
I.S.
TO SITE
IN WEST SOUGHT
Washington. Dec. 3 . ( WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR-NAL.)--Some
of the Western sena
tors are -preparing to urge the re
moval from "Washington of certain
departments whoso work, they say,
can be better performed in the West, i
at the same time helping to relieve
the congestion which still causes dif
ficulties here.
Senator Kenyen df Iowa is one of the
leaders in the movement. He is aroused
over the housing conditions"" in Wash
ington, and holds that the most prac
tical way to deal with it is to move
some of the departments whose work
can . as well be done elsewhere.
BENT HOGS 8COBED
"Captain Kidd was a gentleman com
pared with ' some of the landlords in
Washington," said Senator Kenyon.
"They s are extorting high rents from
people who are compelled to live here
while serving the government.. It. is
time something is done, and the thing j
to do is to move away departments and
bureaus that can readily be moved, with
benefit to the interests they serve, such
as the ' department of agriculture and
the department of the interior.
Senator . King of Utah introduced a
bill in. the last congress for appointment
of a commission to select a site in the
West for the interior department and
related activities. He was thinking less
of the congested conditions in Washing
ton, than of the benefits which he con
tends would result if the department
which'' deals, principally with western
problems, were located in the West.
MUCH TIME LOST .
King's argument" is that too much time
is lost between the field and the de
partment in Washington on questions of (
reclamation, the ' publics lands, the na-1
tional parks, the forest service and simi
lar activities. It would be far more
efficient and economical, he asserts, fori
the secretary of the interior to make
occasional trips to Washington to die-J
cuss affairs of his department with the
president and other officials then to
have the secretary 3000 miles away from
the men who are doing the work, aside
from the paper work, . and therefore I
compelled to summon these men In great
numbers- from time to time for the long
trip to Washington. ...'
There has been little discussion as to I
where the "western capital" should be,
but Salt Lake City, Denver and San
Francisco have been suggested. There
has been a branch reclamation office at
Denver which In a fashion has served
as a supervisory office for the west, an
idea which is said to have worked well
and saved considerable expense and red
tape when field tracers In a the west 1
would otherwise -have' to go o Wash
ington or lose valuable time in corre
spondence and delayed decisions,
SITES ABE AVAILABLE
Senator Kenyon believes that any city
selected in the west would be willing to
furnish an adequate site and to repro
duce the buildings vacated in Washing
ton without cost to the government.
The vacated .buildings would provide
for overflow . In the future and avoid
the necessity of new construction for I
some time to come.
While the far West is regarded by
the senators back of this movement as
the ideal location for the interior de
partment and for related activities like
the -forest service and the waterpower
commission, they agree that the Middle
West agricultural section has a better
claim to the department of agriculture.
whose, removal to "that section they
would also Support for the same rea
sons, bringing the agricultural heads
closer to the problems of the producer I
and in frequent contact with the people
the department was created to serve.
