THIRD DEGREE
POLICE "EVIL"
Alleged Abuse of Rights of Sus
pects Rapped by Morrow; Judge
McCourt Makes Strong Plea
for More Respect for Courts.
The startling increases in Oregon and
throughout the country in the number
of murders, burglaries and other crimes
of violence were pointed to this morning
by Circuit Judge John McCourt as evi
dence ot a growing lack ot respect for
the courts and the law authorities.
Judge McCourt was one ot the speakers
at the Constitution day meeting in Cir
cuit Judge Stapleton's courtroom.
Judge McCourt traced the moral
breakdown of the more reckless mem
bers of society to the infringement dur
ing wartime of the government on ' the
inalienable rights of the individual and
the continued infringement since the
close of the war.
"Lawyers framed the constitution of
the United States," Judge McCourt con
eluded, ."and wrote into it the inalien
able rights of 'life, liberty and the pur
suit of happiness.' The lawyers must
now protect, those rights . of the people
as they- have in the past

Portland, the biggest flour milling
Reenter of the Pacific coast !
This is the new title given this city as
a result of the great strides made in the
flour trade. With the additional steam
ship facilities that this city has been
provided with recently, Portland's flour
manufacturing industry is outdistanc-!
ing all others on the coast
For the year ended September 1. Port
land mills manufactured 1.055,112 barrels
of flour. iTacoma was in second place
in the Pacific Northwest with a total ot
1,051.209 barrels while Seattle was third
in the race with a tout of 972,416 bar
rels, i
Portland some time ago outdistanced
Puget Sound mills for a month or so at
a time but this is the first time in recent
history when the mills of this city
ground more flour than Tacoma or Seat
tie for the period of an entire year.
This fact has caused leading Puget
Sound millers to look to Portland.

Washington. Sept 17. Poison gas as
a means ot warfare has come to stay.
America's military experts join with
those of other countries In insisting
that the gas bomb la just as humane
as the torpedo or the 1000-pound shell.
Any idea that the United States array
experts will advise the American dele
gatlon to the conference on limitation
of armaments to propose the abolition
of poison gases can be dismissed as
out ot the question.
President Harding in his invitation
to the other powers pointed out that
it may be found advisable to formulate
proposals by which, in the interest of
humanity, the use of new agencies of
warfare may be suitably controlled.
- Canvass by this correspondent of
military authorities develops' the fact
that the American army' holds chemical
warfare to be recognized and desirable
means of warfare that is, just as de
sirable" as any other means of killing
ins troops or the enemy. The experts
say they hope the ttme will never come
when war .is necessary to settle disputes
Deiween nations. They are lust as
anxious for permanent peace as any
other Americans. But Mr. Hardinar
himself ia his speech to the army war
college spoke his doubts about perma
nent peace and indicated that armies
and navies would always be necessary.
TO E5D WAR QUICKLY
Inasmuch as the commander in chief
of the army and navy feels that way,
the .experts declare it is their solemn
duty to devise upon the ue of such
agencies of warfare as will bring a
conflict to an abrupt ending.
The prejudice against . the use of
poison gas is. of course, universal.
When the Germans first Introduced it
the same outcry was raised as against
the submarine torpedo. Yet before tha
