S YMBOLIC of the' many activities of Memorial day. devoted more than ever in Portland
this year to paying honors to the dead, was the funeral of Sergeant Walter Schaffer, the
last of Oregon's war dead to be brought home from overseas. Body, lying in state at rmory
for several days, was carried to St. Mary Pro-Cathedral for religious funeral service this
morning, followed by the formal exercises at The Auditorium.! Many reverent rites were per
formed in public cemeteries, plots
mm
At, noon today T. W. Relyea. Pacific.
coast" director of operation for the ship
ping board, had received" no. Intimation
from the Columbia-Pacific ; company,
local operating agent of the board, that
it would comply with, orders issaed. by
the board.' Tliere were' rumors of con
cessions which employers were willing
to make which were not substantiated.
No further word had come from
Washington modifying- the ultimatum
that unless the Columbia-Pacific .em
ploys labor on the pre-strike basis pend
ing settlement of the waterfront dis
pute which means employment of union
longshoremen shipping board boats al
located to the company would be with
drawn.
, Director- Relyea said : "I shall wait
until evening, or until midnight, if nec
essary. After that, if the Columbia
Pacific does not accept conditions laid
down by the shipping board I shall
give the matter consideration.
The employers union was in session
Monday and until a late hour Monday
night. The resignation of the employ
ers strike committee . consisting of
Major V. A. Cartwright. Otto Ketten
bach and W. D. Wells, though under
stood to have been tendered, was not
accepted. This leaves" the personnel of
the employers strike leadership un
changed. '
That there is some prospect of a counter-proposal
coming from the employers
which will be in line with the decision
of the state conciliation board was inti
mated. At present, however, ; the employers
are in position of demanding a hiring
bureau of eight two union and two
non-union employers and two union and
two non-union longshoremen. . This pro
posal is in conflict with the decision of
the state conciliation board as accepted
by the longshoremen's union and the
hipping board ' for a hiring; bureau of
six.' composed of two union employers,
two union longshoremen and two ref
erees, one representing disinterested em
ployers and the other labor.

TEMPLE LINCOLN S

Lincoln Memorial, .Washington. May
30.-fU. P.)--TThe: text of President

memorial follows :
Mr. Chief Justice:
"It is a supreme satisfaction officially
to accept on f behalf of the government
this superb monument to the savior of
the republic , No official duty -could be
more .welcome, no official function more
pleasing. This memorial edifice . is a
noble tribute, gratefully bestowed. ' and
in its offering is the reverent heart of
America; in its dedication is the con
sciousness of . reverence and . gratitude
beautifully expressed. In every moment
of peril, in every hour of discourage
ment, whenever the clouds gather,? there
is-the : image- of Lincoln to rivet our
hopes and to renew our faith. When
ever there is a- glow of triumph over
national achievement, there comes the
reminder that birfcypr Lincoln's heroic
and unalterable faithjm the Union these
triumphs could not. save been.
LIXCOLWS ACTSPLjrALYZED
"History is concerned with, the- things
accomplished. Biography deals with the
methods ant the individual attributes
which led ' to accomplishment. The su
preme chapter in history is not emanci
pation,' though that achievement would
have exalted 1 Lincoln throughout all the
ages. The simple truth is that Lin
coln, recognising an .established order,
would have compromised with the slav
ery that existed, if he could have halted
its extension-. - Hating human slavery as
be did, he doubtless believed in its ulti
mate abolition through the developing
conscience of the American people, but
he would have been the last man in
the republic to resort to arras to effect
its' abolition. Emancipation was a means
0 the great end maintained union and
nationality. Here was the great purpose,
here the towering s hope, here , the su
preme f faith. : He treasured the in
heritance handed down by the founding
fathers, the ark of the covenant wrought
through their r heroic;: sacrifices t " and
builded in their inspired genhisT -The
Union must be preserved. It was the
central thought, the unalterable purpose,

FIRE EATS
WAY ALONG
Columbia University Buildings at
Mocks Bottom Endangered;
Old Mill and Houseboat Burn;
Engine Saves String of Cars.
The Columbia university buildings on
the bank above the north - end of Mocks
Bottom were endangered : this morning
when a fire which leveled the - deserted
buildings of the old University Shingle
company, broke away, burped three box
cars on the O-W. R. & I N. tracks.
houseboat on the river and then biased
its way i up the wooded bank towards
the university, driven by a stiff wind.
-Only the timely arrival of a fire-
boat, playing Jets of water from the
river on the flaming hillside, kept the
flames from going over ! the top and
through a grove that would have brought
it against the university buildings.
At noon the boat was still wetting the
brush and trees to prevent a new out
break.
OLD FIRE RECALLED
The fire started irt the mill, formerly
owned by L. B. Menefee, who sold it
several months .ago to a man who ex
pected to tear it down and sell it for
wood.- The mill has not been in opera
tion for- a year. Two year ago there
was ianother fire; there, several million
shingles and two kilns being destroyed.
J. Workman, whose houseboat was
burned, makes his living by renting
boats. He is located Just at the west
side of the mill. He said he saw sev
eral boys in the mill this morning and
one of them was smoking.; Twenty min
utes later smoke began to roll from the
old building and he saw flames.
BE GRABS BUCKET
He grabbed a bucket and ran with
water, , but the flames had too much
headway and the water only aggravated
them. The dry buildings : were soon in
flames. .; - '
Workman s houseboat jwas next to
catch. He saved ' nothing ; from. it. One
of his motor boats also burned, the motor
sinking to the bottom of the river. A
canoe was burned, but .the rest of his
boats were saved. ' i
. 1 Only the quick action of the O-W. R. &
N. in sending a switch engine to un
couple a string' of 0 boxcar standing
next -to the mm saved the -whole string
from being-destroyed. When "the engine
arrived, three of the ears were ' burned
and a. fourth was in flames. Switch'
men - uncoupled the string; . between . the
fourth and fifth cars -and - the engine
Jerked the remainder of the cars to
safety. , - - '
. The old: mill had no machinery in it
and probably, was not -worth more tran
$1500 for wood. The houseboat and its
contents were ' worth" $500 or $600, ac
cording to Workman. - K

Barrier in
DdckStrike
My Marshal "jr. D3a
A thousand years -of employer-labor
disputes are summed up in the situation
to which the waterfront strike nas oeen
brought, .;. -II '
The employer viewpoint which was in
vogue a thousand' years ago has created
a deadlock in negotiations for strike set
tlement. . j ;
"You can't tell me who I will employ,
or bow; I'm going to run my own. busi
ness." Some captain of industry ten cen
turies ago was the author of this asser
tion. It is today's barrier against end
ing: the waterfront controversy.
It is the impatient slogan of employ
era who, though themselves unionised,;
wish not to deal .with; or to recognize
union longshoremen. ! j
WOCID DE8TROT UHIOK j
It is the argument used to refute ihei
modern - doctrine that industry thrives
best when the rights and welfare of all
are expressed by too unified voice of a
'1
in that industry. '
It is the Impelling motive for the pro-.
posal by the employers': union that their
terms of strike settlement take the place
of the decision reached officially by the
state conciliation board and accepted by!
the: longshoremen and the United States
shipping- board.' if i
It Is the cloak for the purpose to . de
stroy the longshoremen's"" union.
Thus, today,! the continuance of the
strike is conditioned upon the endurance
of : a viewpoint that the broadest vis-j
ioned leaders of industry, both employes!
and employers, long ago discarded. j
OBJECTITE SUBMERGED.
Thus, today, the original objective of
the waterfront agitation to place this
port, in the matter, of charges, on a
parity with, competitive ports, and toj
secure maximum efficiency from' long-;
shore laborMs more or less submerged,
No reasonable person denies that there!
were waterfront wrongs "and evils that)
needed correction, and that much room
for 1 Improvement existed in longshore;
labor. i
But the decision announced ' by the
concilation board and accepted by the
longshoremen involves abolition of the'
pernicious list system,: equalisation of
labor charges with competitive ports and

. While the keen weather eyes of mete
orologists, observers and . statisticians
were turned to the pleasures of a day '4
outing amidst green' hills and babbiing
brooks, the sun took a hot shot, at the
tliermometer today in an effort, to set a
new high mercury level. 4
- Getting away to an early start with1
the sprightly breese of Sunday and Mom
day giving up the ghost to the sun beams
the giant orb glared at the practically
deserted streets of Portland and Bet to
work with every ounce of its energy. j
By noon the mercury had been, shoved
up to the level of 85 degrees, which pre
viously had been the high mark for this
year, and every indication gave evidence
that a temperature of 88 degrees would
be reached by mid-afternoon. ,
And the summer camping spirit was
conveyed to all Portland by the hot
glare. Early in the morning long string
of ' automobiles could be seen stringing
out the highway arteries from the city
and the interurban lines carried other
crowds to the outdoors.
In the meantime the river reached 4
new high level at Portland with the
water gauge showing at 17.4 feet, or 4
of a foot higher than Monday. For the
next three days the river level will drop
slightly, since the runoff has dropped
upstream.
Today Wena tehee reported a rise of
of a foot in the Columbia river and
fall of .6 of a foot was- reported in th
Snake river at Liewiston.

council, as favoring the change of time. .
' i In summing up the letters received .
during the few days of The Journal's
referendum, started as an aid to , the
council in determining whether the clocks
should be set forward locally, it may
be said : that working men, and espe- :
dally their wives, are strongly opposed
to getting up earlier in the morning than
they do at th present time. Many peo
ple of middle class means, on th other .
hand, want more time In the evening in
wbicb to work in their garden and on
their lawns. 11 " )---.:; ;'.-;r : ;-V' '

Some of the Industries favor daylight

th specialty shops would be helped.. The
photographers want longer evenings and
therefor favor the change. Business

largely in favor of longer evenings."
