16 THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, OREGON FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1921. BORAH WINS IN ARMAMENT ISSUE WITH PRESIDENT . By David Lawrence (Copyright, 131. by The Journal) Washington, July 1. Senator armament, stands out today as vic tor in the first contest with the Harding administration. Reluctant for reasons never divulged, the ad ministration at first frowned upon Mr. Borah's efforts to nush the dis armament question to the front, then conceded the point and passed word to -Republican senators that no ob jection was entertained to their sup port of the measure and f inally made an effort through Republican Leader Mondell of the house to get a broad resolution passed which would cover military as well as naval disarma ment. That last proposal of the administra tion was finally abandoned In the house, . and the Borah resolution came through with flying colors. TASGLE AVOIDED The reasons that He back of 'the ad ministration's change of policy have not been on the surface at all. ant several Republicans who watched the rising tide of disarmament sentiment' In the house have insisted that whatever the form which the disarmament proposals may take, the house could not afford to set into a tangle on the question by voting down the Borah idea of a three-power corrference-Great Britain, Japan and the United States. j The truth is the Borah resolution doesn't prevent the executive from sum moning a conference of all the powers, nor does -it inhibit Mr. Harding from in cluding land armament as well. YIELD TO BORAH I The president has the right to nego 'tiate with foreign powers about any sub ; Ject under the sun, and no matter what agreement he negotiated congress would have the final say as to the stoppage of r appropriations for naval or military ar mament. The ..administration forces have not .relished the Idea of being led by Sen Pator Borah. In the past all important policies sanctioned by an administration have been initiated by the spokesman of the administration in the house or sen ate. In this case Senator Lodge took , little part in the proceedings. Republican Leader Mondell's efforts to broaden the resolution were aban- Borah. Explanations given today vary. Some said the desire of the executive was to get congress busy on much more vital matters of business than a mere ex pression of opinion, which, after all. Is what the Borah resolution does. It doesn't accomplish disarmament. It requests the president to confer with other powers and discuss the matter. I It's always a long way from discussion to achievement in foreign affairs. Nevertheless the forcing of the admln ': titration's hand on a problem so bis In the public mind as disarmament has not passed without significant comment on ' all sides to the effect that Republican" leadership in congress is not making the most of Republican opportunities. optoRTtnnrr lost The chance to grasp the disarmament question andtmake it an administration policy from the start was politically an excellent one. Members of the house rec ognized it by their refusal to sidetrack the Borah measure for any new proposi tion that might mean a delay in getting a vote. I Tram all sides President Harding has been urged from the very beginning of his administration to assume the leader ship in disarmament throughout the world. It has been pointed out that his opportunity to rid the European ooufi- , tries of the heaviest part of their;' tax burden has been greater than vouch safed any American president , I The question has, indeed, been brought closer home by the announcement of Sec retary Mellon that the European coun tries owe the United States more than a billion dollars In interest since the war. MEMBERS A P P H E HE" S I V E The ability of Europe to pay that In terest depends upon the amounts needed for domestic appropriations on armies and navies. If America could have re ceived a billion dollars in interest, In come taxes would have been correspond ingly decreased in the United States be cause there would have been just a bil lion dollars less to raise from American taxpayers. The overwhelming votes for the Borah resolutionain the senate and the house are not altogether the expression of a new sentimentalism about armament and the prevention of wars. The votes are really the exoressed apprehension of members of congress that they will -not be reelected unless they at least make gestures In the direction of disarma ment and government economy. ISSUE IS POPULAR The subject is now transferred to the White House. The president has been canvassing the other powers through the supreme council on which . Ambassador Harvey, great friend of Senator Borah, Is the American representative. But the Borah resolution will make necessary something more than informal feelers. The rSaho senator is not the kind who wilk allow his resolution to be passed and pigeon-holed. At the proper time he will make pertinent inquiry as to the progress being made in the negotia tions. Mr. Borah has grasped a popular issue and will tenaciously cling to it un til something concrete is accomplished. PASTOR AND GIRL FROM SALEM ARE TO FACE CHARGES UNION HEADS AVOID RAIL STRIKE TALK Chicago, July 1. (I. N. S.) As, a majority of the 1,500.000 railway workers throughout the country re ported for work today at reduced wages, their, representatives, 1000 strong, were assembled in Chicago for conferences regarding the 12 per cent Wage slash that are relied upon to keep the transportation wheels turning. The union leaders gathered here are about as talkative as clams. In no quarter is loud talk heard of "strike." The general verdict of the delegates ap pears to be : "It's up to the men." Railway officials do not appear to be worried by prospects of a strike. They pointed out today that the union lead ers are cognizant of the industrial de pression throughout the country and that they would hesitate long before recom mending any action that would swell the ranks of jobless. Salem, Or., July 1. The Rev. Fred Royston of Salem, arrested at Kelso, Wash., Thursday night, in company with Miss Frankie Edwards, daugh ter of a well known Salem family, will be brought back to this ity to day to face a charge of white slaver, preferred against him by B. F. Edwards, uncle of the girl. Royston, who was graduated this year from the Kimball College of Theology with high honors, has a wife and 10-year-old daughter living here. He is 33 years of age and the girl is 18. BOTH LEPT SODAY The two disappeared from their re spective homes Sunday. Miss Edwards is said to have left the home of her grandmother that night about 9 o'clock. ostensibly .to visit a friend. Rev. Mr. Royston is said to have left his home at about 5 o'clock for the Keyser bottom country north of here, where for a year he has held a student pastorate. Relatives of both feared foul play until the authorities, asked to aid In the search, concluded that the two, who were known to have been friendly for some time, had left the city together. Strength wasadded to this conclusion when neighbors Informed B. F. Ed wards, uncle of the girl, that she had informed them that the Rev. Mr. Roy ston had made efforts to persuade her to leave the city. NOTE IS PART CLEW The first clew, as to the whereabouts of the pair was contained in a note re ceived from Miss Edwards by her grandmother here Wednesday after noon which read : "Don't worry ; I am ail right and just as good a girl as when I left Salem," signed "Frankie." Mrs. Royston, wife of the pastor, re fuses to believe that her husband is guilty of any wrong. "If Fred Is guilty," she insists, "his mind has been unbalanced by a nervous trouble that has been bothering him for the past , year due to his studies" Mrs M. E. Royston. mother of the minister, is Just as firm in her convic tion that the arrest Is the result of some mistake WIPE BLAMES GIRL , T have raised nine children, three of or whom nave occltcatea tneir uvea to Christianity and this is the first time that trouble of this nature has touched our name." she declares Both the wife and the mother of the minister are inclined to blame the girl for what they characterise as an at tempt to break up the Royston home. Relatives of the girl, charged in a complaint signed by her uncle also with having been a party to an immoral act, are anxious to learn the story from the lips of the girl herself before placing the blame, but insist that justice shall be done regardless of where it falls. 55 Forest Fires in June Reported by Washington Flyers Olympia, Wash., July 1.
