10 THE OREGON ' SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY ., MORNING. DECEMBER 5, 1920. APPROPRIATIONS CURB FURNISHES LEGISLATIVE JOB Insane Hospital Additions Great ' est Need,-Says Roy W. Ritner; . Reapportionment Problem Up. The major task of the , coming mate legislature, in the "opinion of Roy W. Ritner, whp will be the pres ident of the senate at the next ses sion, will be that of keeping state appropriations within the "6 per cent limitation of the constitution. This will mean, he says, that there can be very little building -done at the state Institutions for the next two years to come. Senator Ritner prom ises the appointment "of the seven ablest business men in the senate on the ways and means committee" to handle the money problems of the session, so far as the work of the upper house is concerned. In discussing: -the question of state buildings Senator Ritner takes issue with those state officials and members of the Multnomah delegation who are advocating the erection of additional office buildinea at the expense of the necessary additions to the Insane hos pital urged by Superintendent Steiner of the Salem hospital and of Superin tendent McNary of the Eastern Oregon hospital at Pendleton. "The unfortunate Insane are com pelled to occupy the quarters provided," he says. "State officials are at liberty to resign if conditions become uncom fortable." , Senator Ritner also advocates the re apportionment of the membership of the lower house so that each county will be given at least one member and is of the opinion that the 60-day eesmon amend ment to the constitution barely defeated at the recent election should again be submitted to the people for their ratifi cation. He is of the opinion that road and highway legislation will not consume so much, time during the coming session as has been the case in recent sessions and contends that changes in the highway program are advocated mainly by those who wish to see the present highway commission eliminated, a, change which t he believes will not be made. i . "The fish and game question is always with us," Senator Ritner says, and he adds that "as long as the Rogue rives continues to flow to the sea we will be burdened with the struggle between the sportsmen of the upper ' river and the fishing Industry on the lower river." He holds that the present manner of choosing the fish and game commission is not satisfactory to a majority of the members, but was adopted "to prevent political harl-karl from being performed upon a commission in which they had absolute confidence." He contends that the commission should be appointed by the governor and predicts that such provision will be made in time." PREVENTABLE DEATHS DECLARED ON INCREASE 7 1$ ! s& II M'ffa 1 , , s' ,,, ' s js;-" i 'y , ' " 8 ':''"',',' wmm fossa t ' ffiP 4 2 i " ' - V 'V's- : 1 1 v . jl , 1" , ' , i ski T T Dr. W. 11 Waldo The lercentage of deaths in America from preventable causes is constantly increasing, according to Dr. W. R. Waldo of Seattle, , president of the American Osteopathic - association, who addressed a meeting of local osteopathic physicians Saturday night at the .Moore sanitarium. The event was in the nature of a house warming for the new sanitarium, with Dr. Waldo as guest of honor. "While less babies die and while old people do bve longer, the appalling fact is that in the most important and most valuable period between these two ex tremes., the death rate is Increasing," Dr. Waldo said. "Insanity, cancer, heart disease, kidney disease,' hardening of the arteries are rapidly increasing, particu larly in our cities. ; "Disease is the result of altered cir culation. Germs are destroyed by healthy blood In perfect motioni Impaired cir culation permits germs to multiply. Germs are everywhere and cannot hurt the perfectly adjusted mechanism of the human body, which is supplied with automatic methods of killing these Invaders. When a machine does not work. well, its owner has it adjusted by a mechanic. When' the human body presents unusual symptoms it should be overhauled by an osteopathic physician, as the osteopath tries to discover what Is mechanically wrong and adjust it as well as is possible. This is the rational treatment of disease." SmITH REELECTED HOTEL BODY HEAD Phil Metschan, W. C. Birdsall of Bend and C. A. Bartell Are Vice Presidents. 5"he Dalles, Or., Dec. 4. The an nual election at the convention of f the Oregon Hotel Keepers associa tion resulted in the reelection as president of Percy F. Smith of the Benson hotel, Portland.

Wild geese, killed in Wasco county, were the principal item on the menu of the dinner given the visiting hotel men by Pat Foley, owner of the Hotel Dalles here, Saturday night. More than 100 guests from all parts of the state par ticipated. The visiting hotel men were guests of local merchants in an inspection tour of the food products plants during the morning, and Saturday afternoon were taken to Big Eddy and Celilo by auto mobile. . The visitors from Western Oregon will return, to Portland Sunday morning by a specially chartered steamer. NEW WORLD MAY SHATTERLEAGUE HOPE (Continued From Pass On) , 'Almost any man can afford a car If he'll let the dar ed thing stand in the garage. of Canada, introduced a motion to elim inate Article X, which has been de scribed by President Wilson , as "the heart of the covenant" This is the ar ticle guaranteeing the territorial integ rity of member states against outside aggression. The Canadians were understood to be thoroughly, determined to force their measure through, virtually demanding favorable action on it. It will be up for discussion Monday. C N. Rowell of Canada exploded a bomb when he declared he would back up Puerrydon and attempt to secure ac tion on Argentina's amendments. The Australians and New Zealanders swung into line and threw their support to Argentina. There were, the wildest con jectures as to what would result from the bolt and the threatened bolts. With Latin-America, Canada, Australia and New Zealand trembling on the verge of quitting the assembly, the more pes simistic of the old world delegates did not see how the league could hold to gether. "ACCEPT OR AVE LEAVE "The withdrawal was on my initiative, but in full accordance with the wishes of my government," said Puerrydon. "We will remain at Geneva until Tues day, winding ub our affairs. ' Then we Fwill leave unless the assembly passes our amendments. We will not be pres ent Monday." The amendments introduced by the Argentines provide for admission of all sovereign states to the league, for ad mission of delegates from small states which are not entitled to full member ship, for election of the council by the assembly and for the international . tri bunal to have compulsory jurisdiction over disputes. ' f The trouble which now seems to threaten the league started when the assembly had before it a motion to re fer all amendments to a commission and take no action on them until 1921. This was considered desirable because it was expected the United States would" want certain changes made in the covenant If it came in and leaders did not want to make changes at two sessions. When the proposition of deferring amendments came to a vote Puerrydon cast his bal lot against it. ARGENTINE OVERRULED Hymans ruled that an unanimous vote was. not necessary in such procedure and therefore the motion prevailed in spite of Argentina's adverse ballot. Puerrydon contended it was not , matter of pro cedure, bjftie was overruled by Hymans. Rumors that Argentina would with draw were circulated shortly afterward. At this morning's session, the Argen tines failed to appear, although Pueyr rdon denied they had any intention of withdrawing. A short time afterward, rhowever, he notified Hymans that the delegation had withdrawn. Meanwhile, a number of other delegations had un officially expressed sympathy with the Argentines and there was considerable sentiment in favor of reopening the question. It was understood that this was to be done, but when Hymans called on Pueyrrdon to advise him of it, he was met with the flat demand for pass age oX the four amendments. REPORT IS PRESENTED At today's plenary session the first commission presented a report signed by Rowell of Canada and Viviani of France, with regard to the important questions of relations between the assembly and the council. The report urged the as sembly to adopt the following definition of the telationship : Both the council and the assembly are vested with particular powers and duties and neither has jurisdiction to render a decision in a matter expressly referred to Ahe other. The assembly has no right to modify or reverse the council's decisions on mat ters within Its exclusive jurisdiction. The council must report yearly to the assembly. Serbia, Bolivia and Venezuela replied today to the invitation extended to all nations to mediate in Armenia. They said they sympathized with the proposi tion, but they were unable to undertake it themselves and urged that it be en trusted to a single great power. Pueyrrdon's formal notice of with drawal recited that his country had been given to understand that amendments to the covenant would be acceptable. Those proposed by Argentina were not in conflict with the Versailles treaty, he said, ancUrefusal to act On them ended the delegates' mission. ARTICLE X TO FORE Article -X promised to come to the fore, in the assembly almost to the ex tent it did in the presidential campaign in America. The announcement of C. J. Doherty, Canadian delegate, that he will move the elimination of the article, was met by some objections. Lord Robert Cecil told the United Press correspondent he will introduce a counterproposal . asking : that Article X be interpreted to remove obligatory ac tions, in case ' of aggression . against a member nation. j Wellington Koo, Chinese -gelegate, eaid ha was ready to agree to any action, in regard to; the article even elimination, if it precluded America's entry into the league.. ' . . ;- ' Fridtjof Nansen,' Norwegian, said he believed amy action would be acceptable if it overcame America's objections. A. J. Balfour stated he ! was opposed to any revisions at the present time. . TM AGAINST XEAUGE OP ANY KIND," SAYS JOHNSON Chicago, Dec. P.) Entrances of the United States into any league of na tions is opposed by Senator Hiram John son of California, who passed through Chicago today on his way to Washington to attend the opening session of congress. Johnson refused to discuss any plans he had to fight the entrance of this coun try into the league, but indicated he would oppose just as strenuously as he has in the past any attempt to enter a league in any form. When it 'was suggested to him that there was a tendency among friends of President-elect Harding to enter a league if properly amended, Johnson declared It "impossible." " ' "Why, the nations involved in the pres ent organization couldn't receive us after the things ' Senator Harding has said about the league and the statements the party has made about t " said Johnson. Regarding the report that members of the league are considering the elimina tion of Article X as a concession to the United States, Johnson " declared . this would not be enough. . "There would have to be other changes," f he said. , Johnson, said he planned to introduce a bill providing for a nationwide presidential preference pri mary. l . Wood is a wonderful thing.
