In fact, the bnt minds In this town have become thicker than (ml icemen In ordinary times. If the administration dot not pull off lt world program It will not tie for Uric of loose intellect stretching all around the streets within a mile of the White House. It Is eitraordlnary. the number of these best minds that express the Idea that the meeanleal Ingenuity of man has outrun his wisdom and that, there fore, the "problems are too big for him and ha Is likely to' destroy his present I'lvllliatlon as the civilizations of Kiypt, Asia Minor, India, China.

WAB'M ADYAM'K COMPARKD Recently 4000 marines visited one of the battlegrounds of the Civil ar. Then 4VMi marines, with their equip ment, could defeat the combined Union end Confederate srmles with their equip ment. Moreover, they could do It without thenalven suffering a single casualty. ' as the othnr side would never get near enough to do them any damage. 11 ut Kip pone we go back only to the Spanish war. One ship, like the Penn sylvania or Wyoming, If attacked, could withstand the combined fleets of Samp son a i'l Cervera and could probably de stroy them all before they could get out of range. But It does not do a whole lot of good to Increase power unless we know what to do with It. Another of the best minds rails my attention to a poem of Goethe, In which the powers of a magician are gotten hold of by his apprentice, the re suit being disaster. Ooethe's comment Is to the effect that It Is no use wishing ' for the powers of a wise man. If those powers came to an ordinary man the only renult would be that the power was separated from the wisdom. 'AIK i TALE APPLIED Also a best mind recalls to' me thi fairy tale of the three wishes as expres sing the belief of this particular best mind, that the trouble with the world Just row Is that men do not wish for the right things. A fairy told a peasant and his wife that she would grant the first three things for which either of them expressed a wlnh. They were delighted and began to talk ever a lot of fine things. After a while tbey forgot the main subject and began to get hungry. "I wish." said the wife, ubsent-mtnd-edly, "that I had a roast sausage." Immediately the' sausage appeared on the table. Angered at the waste of one of the precious wishes, the husband burst out In a rage. "I wish," he cried. "that the sausage was on . the end of your nose." Immediately U appeared ' there. There was no way to undo that error of anger except to use up the one remaining treasure, the third wish, by wishing the sausage off the wife's noqe gain. 80 the great powers granted by the fairy brought no more good to these two careless and quarrelsome peasants than the powers of nature bring to us If we do not two wisdom In deciding what to do with them. Senator Lenroot observed the other day: They could not tell by the looks of his track, whether he was coming or going back." BACKWARD OR FORWARD What makes the situation In Washing ton so thrilling Just now Is that every body la watching lntensly to see whether or not the conference Is to carry us forward or. by discouragement, throw us back, and people In general become more and more convlnved that much of the worlds future hangs on a correct de- cislon. I was In l'arls a while during the conference there and I saw nothing of the mood that prevails here now. There were a few people who took the view I have been describing, but they were ot enough to create a general mood. The Interesting thing about this point ot view now la It la absolutely the pre vailing mood. 1 do not deny that there Is no doubt even criticism. There la plenty of It. There are plenty who express the Opinion that the conference will not do anything. Maybe there are many who believe It will accomplish nothing as there are who believe it will do most of what It set out to do. But both factions, those who expect much and those who expect nothing will, on the whole agree that If it does fall to mark out lines of progress and safety, this old world win be tn a pen loua state. HUE 10 STOCK w AROUSES I Fifty Cents Charge Made by For Hire Cars Branded as Outrage by City Commissioner Bigelow; Mann Halts. Orders of Mayor. "Fifty cents to ride to the stock show; why. It is outrageous," is the way City Commissioner Bigelow commented this morning upon the rate charged by Jitney busses between town and the big show in Kenton. By terms of the city ordinance Jit neys, to operate, must pay a license fee and at the same time d-posit a bond to cover accidents. Despite this fact for hire cars are being allowed to operate without these provisions and charge 60 cents for each passenger, 15 cents more than It costs to go to Vancouver. Monday Mayor Geocge L. Baker is sued orders to the chief of police to ar rest all Jitney drivers operating without proper license. This morning he -was in- . formed for the first time that Commis sioner John M. Mann, head of the . de partment of public utilities, had coun termanded the mayor's order. MASS EXPLAINS Mann explains the situation by say ing that the streetcars were unable to handle the large crowds and that the Jitneys were a necessity. For this rea son ha has allowed them to operate for the week of the show without a license as such. "For hire ears charge 13 to J4 an hour," Mann said, "and it takes more than an hour to get to the show and back. If they are compelled to run for less they will simply stop and not op erate, leaving the crowds to shift for themselves. Anyway, they all carry signs saying their charge la 5u cents and if people don't want to pay that price they need not ride." BIGELOW ANSWERS Commissioner Bigelow tersely an swered the argument by stating that by the same reasoning one need not ride streetcars because the fare Is 8 cents In the city limits; but streetcars are a public utility. "Bigelow branded the charge to the show as an "outrage." It was pointed out by Commissioners Bigelow and Pier that Justification for this high charge cannot be found, even In the rate of S3 an- hour for the lururfl ous for hire cars and though it takes half an hour to cet to the exposition buildings by auto. "Kven these expensive cars stand idle on the streets for long periods between calls," they said, "and were their calls as frequent at all times as they are dur Ing rush periods such as this, (he $3 rate would be excessive. Observe Day Reverently, Urges Mayor Urging the people of Portland to ob serve the silent tribute to be paid to the soldier and sailor dead of the nation at noon Armistice day. Mayor George L. Baker issued a proclamation today set ting the day aside as one. of reverent worship. ; The proclamation follows : In honor of, one of the greatest events of American history and in reverence to those both living and dead who brought about the great climax in the struggle of liberty and civilization in the late World war. a full and complete observance of Armistice day, November 11. 1921, is urged in the city of Portland.

Twin Falls, Idaho, Nov. 8. Entering the dining car of Union Pacific train No. 17, westbound Chicago to Portland, a few miles out of American Falls, late last night, a lone bandit held up the diners end relieved them of cash and jewelry, according to reports here early today. The bandit made no attempt on the forward coaches, but contented himself with repeating the sticking up in the observation car. He wore no maak, it was said. The robber, it was believed, came aboard at American Falls, waiting until the train had reached a stretch of desert country to make his coup. Disappointed with his haul, the bandit is said to have, expressed his disgust with "the bums who traveled first class these days" before he dropped off the train and became, one of the desert's shadows. ... ....... . Coot taken from the passengers was said to total $434. Several posses from surroundinj towns took up the bandit's trail. ; v.- Train No. 17, in charge of Conductor J. M. Boggess and Engineer William Dean, left American Falls at 6:50, and as the train Blowed down at the east end of the American Falls bridge over Snake river the masked bandit boarded the rear end of the observation car and held up the passengers, porter and Flagman Hol brook. As Conductor Boggess entered the front tend of the car he became aware of the presence of the train robber and rushed back to the door, locking it so that the bandit could not get out to the other cars. The following passengers were relieved of money : M. J. Peasfnger, $105 ; Nathan S. Schtenbrok, $15 ; J. C. Hansen, care Edwin Clapp & Son, East Weymouth, Mass, $37; L. W.

Twenty-five Middle Western and East ern Holstein breeders arrived this morn ing to attend the Pacific . International Livestock exposition. "That's all we are just dairymen com ing to the stock show," they said as they crawled from their berths in their spe cial cars for a good whiff of Oregon outdoors air. But most of them are highly successful manufacturers and politicians, who have turned to Holstein breeding as others have turned to golf. Most prominent among them is Frank Orren Lowden, might-have-been at the Republican national convention, ex-governor of Illiarfis and multi-millionaire. Mr. Lowden is president of the Holstein- Friesian association.

Senate Resolution Asks U.S. Delegation To Favor Open Meet Humble H ft W Soldier's Hero to Command Dream Comes True Washington, Nov. 8. (I. N. S.) After a brief but stormy debate, the senate adopted a modified resolution today requesting the American delega tion to use its influence to secure open sessions and complete publicity for the conference on limitation of arraanent and Far Eastern questions. Adoption of th eresolution by a viva voce vote followed a compromise reached by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, Re publican leader, and a member of the American delegation, and Senator Pat Harrison, (D., Miss.), author of the res olution. Senator Lodge, Republican leader, and Senator Underwood, Democratic leader, both members of the American delega tion to the armament conference, voted for the amended resolution. The question, for a time, pluged the senate Into a stormy and acrimonius debate, characterised by hot verbal clashes between Senator Lodge of Mas sachusetts, an American delegate to the Conference, and Senator Hiram Johnson of California. fly William Hlavta MeXatt I'nlUd Nws Slalf OflvTmpnadeat, Washington. Nov. I. During the war an America soldier marched down the streets of an American city on hla way to the dock to embark for "somewhere in rrance " The street was lined with brilliant flags and streamers Inscribed with patriotic logan. Cheering towns folk thronged . the sidewalk to bid him Godspeed and food luck. The marching boy in khaki was aglow with the fervent spirit that was dom inant In the country then. In his mind were visions of fearful battle struggles and perhaps death. But clearest of all was the vlxlon of himself returning to hla homeland, a heroic unit with a vic torious army.

The fighting army surged on and left him. The bit ot a. board at the head of his grave was marked "unknown." The army of which he had been a part went through to victory and the Rhine, and the tide of military traffic turned home. The outfit with which he went away landed in the United States and marched up the street which he had marched down. Welcoming cheers thundered In their ears and their destination was home and the loved ones there. Some- where In the United States someone wept (Concluded ob Tag Two. Coaarsa Tire) London, Nov. 8. (L N. S.) The pos sibility that Premier Lloyd George and his cabinet may resign on Friday as a result of the "Irish peace crisis, was be ing discussed in the Inner circles of Downing street oday. The premier will confer tomorrow with Sir James Craig and the other members of the unionist cabinet of Ulster and the future course of the British cabinet in the Irish peace negotiations will de pend on this meeting. If the Ulsterites reject the premier's proposals for a compromise and refuse to have any dealings with the Sinn Fein, then it is likely that Premier Lloyd George will consider resigning and a general election with Irish peace as the i-chief issue will take place. SPEAKS OF BESIGSI"G In his recent speech the premier inti mated he might resign if the Unionists succeeded in wrecking the Irish peace conference. The premier's colleagues de clared today, however, that he would not resign unless every other resource failed, for it is the ambition of the pre mier's life to leave the Irish peace as a legacy to his country when he retires fom the government. The Ulsterites do not attempt to con ceal their belief that Lloyd George may "betray them to the Sinn Feiners. Their opposition has stiffened within the last few days and the breach between the North Ireland urionists and the British cabinet has widened despite the efforts of A. Bonar Law and Sir Edward Carson to bridge it. ULSTERITES MAT SPLIT At the same time there is a possi bility that a split may occur among the Ulsterites. The British premier is a powerful pleader with great powers of persuasion and if he can win: the support of the Ulster business men with economic arguments, they may bring pressure upon the "Irreconcilables. The orange lodges in Ulster are the Backbone of the opposition to a compro mise. They threaten to bring about Sir James Craig's political downfall If he yields to South Ireland. Washington. Nov. 8 (WASHING TON BUREAU OF THEOURNAL.) That a gentlemen's . agreement ' exists between Japanese steamship lines and transcontinental railroads touching Puget sound, for preferential handling of freight for Japanese1 ships, and that the American merchant marine has a fight against hidden enemies in this country, was asserted on the floor of the senate today by Senator Jones of Washington, chVirman of the commerce committee and author of the Jones acti "I have been hoping for more ener-j getic enforcement of the law by the ad ministration," said Jones. "If it doesn't come pretty soon it will "be a great re flection upon this administration. Re ports come to me that the administra tion has decided not to enforce this or that provision. We will have to take heroic steps to promote American en terprise." READS CONTRACTS Reading from a purported contract between the Milwaukee railroad and the Osaka steamship line, Jones read provisions for preferences to be shown transcontinental freight for the Osaka line. This agreement was dated 1908, he said, and ran to April 1, 1919, but hs produced a letter of more recent date from R. M. Calkins, vice president of the Milwaukee road, to the Osaka Interests, saying the railroad has no intention of canceling this contract, though it may not be possible to enter into a formal contract" because of American legisla tion. Calkins was quoted as saying that he trusted the agreement would remain in force. Jones also read from a similar agree ment said to exist between the Northern Pacific railroad and a Japanese line. "I don't need any investigation to con vince me that powerful interests in this country are cooperating with foreign steamship lines," he said. LSVESTIGATIOJr ORDERED Senator Borah said he had been in formed by excellent authority that the situation - is exceedingly serious and there would be drastic action to get the tacts, Jones presented a resolution which the senate adopted by unanimous vote, call ing on the interstate commerce commis sion for contracts between American railroads and foreign steamship lines. Senator La Follette gave notice he would call up another resolution on the subject tomorrow. There are fifteen or twenty such agreements, he said Jones recited his efforts to obtain in formation, and said th interstate com mission has been gathering informa tion upon his request.

Washing-ton, Nov. 8. The American program for limitation of naval arma ment has been practically agreed upon. The details remain to be shaped, but tne fundamentals are clear. They are : First, for every naval item given up by the United States there shall be an equivalent given up by other naval powers. Second The present ratio of naval strength shall be maintained in the sense that the United States shall not be placed in a weaker position toward other powers than she is at the moment. Third The British having accepted the principle of equality with the United States, the disparity in strength between the two navies shall, at least, not be in creased.

"Reduction of arma ments" is held to mean that vessels still in commission but growing obsolete shall be scrapped and the tax burdens reduced by an agreement not to replace these ships, but to economije by eliminating the expense of keeping up old vessels.
