"By a pjroeess of gradual encroach
ment sovereignty has been wrested
from the people and usurped by the
courts.
"Today the actual ruler of the Amer
ican people is the supreme court of the
United Stites. The law is what they

through congress, enact. In fact, five
Of these nien are actually the supreme
rulers, fof- by a bare majority the
court repeatedly has overridden the
will of the people as declared by their
representatives in congress and has
construed the legislation to mean what
ever suited their peculiar economic
and political views."
LaFolletite turned his fire .sharply on
Chief Justice Taft, stating he had been
repudiated by the voters of the United

In a great two-sided plan, which was
inaugurated here today in the federa

appeal particularly -to the nation's
mothers for their votes in accomplish

i 1 Enactment. in every state of laws
prohibiting .employment of children,
with drastic penalties for violations.
2 Amendment of the federal consti
tution!; to permit congress to enact a
federal ch)ld labor law, which the su

TO DEMAND RECOUNT

(Continued From PLf b One
publican ,tally sheets, in making the of
ficial count.
CEBTAIK PBECIHCTS CHOSE5
The precincts said, to have been
chosen by Hall for, the recount are
those in which Jewish, Catholic and
negro voters are to be found in good
ly numbers on the registration lists,
so it is alleged. The Washington and
Marion county precincts, such as
Mount Angel and Aurora, in Marion,
are to be recounted, the story has it,
these being districts largely populated
by members of the ;Catholic church.
It is said to be the hope ot ilan
and his managers that out of the lis
and more precincts to be reopened,
more than 100 instances of irregular
balloting may be unearthed. This be
ing done it wilf be the Hall strategy,
according to the report, for Hall to
issue a public statement, pointing to
the results in this partial recount.
and contending that, with this showing
made in these few! precincts, it can
well be argued that he is, in tact,
the real Republican nominee for the
governorship.
TOO POOB FOB BECOUNT
Hall's managers will contend, it is
stated, that the senator is a poor man
and financially unable to reopen the
ballot boxes of the; state as a whole.
It will' be ergued that on the face of
the showing from tRefew selected dis
tricts a general reconnt would prove
him to be the winner at the recent pri
mary election and jthat, in justice to
his friends and supporters, there is
no course open to him but to submit
his independent candtdaey to the elec
torate in November.
The legislature of 1919, in chapter
421 of the session laws, raised a statu
tory bar against a defeated candidate
for nomination becoming an independ
ent aspirant for election, but it is the
intention of Hall arid his headquarters
to ignore this statute, so it is said.
The law. provides tjhat "No candidate
for a nomination who fails to receive
the highest numbef of votes for the
nomination of the political 'party with
which he was affiliated at the time of
filing his petition for nomination, shall
be entitled to be the candidate of any
other political party, or to become an
independent candidate at the ensuing
election, and -in either case the county
clerk shall not certify the name of
such candidate' j
HOLD LAWriCs JCST
It is wfa to be! the contention of
the Hall managers that this law, should
it be submitted to
the supreme court
for construction, would be- held as an
impairment of the constitutional right
of a citizen to be a candidate for office
and therefore void.
Senator Hall is reported by his bead
quarters at the Multnomah hotel to be
due in Portland this afternoon, at
which time a conference is to be held
to finally determine his course of ac
tion in regard to the demand for a re
count of the vote.
It has been rumored for the last two
weeks or so that the agents of the Ku
Klux Klan and the Federated Patri
otic societies have been assessing mem
bers of these organizations $2 each to
defray the expense of the contemplated
recount.
Prophecy of Three
Violent Deaths Is
Fulfilled at Paris
(Special Cable to The Journal and the Chicago
aily N ews i
(Copjnght. lWL')
Paris. June 14. A curious incident
was revealed in Paris yesterday in con
nection with the sensational trial of
Madame Hera Mirtel Bessarabo and
her daughter, Paula Jacques, who are
accused 'ot having murdered in cold
blood one or both pf the novelist's hus
bands. The second spouse of Madame
Bessarabo, alias , Weissman, owned
property in Mexico and was interested
in a mineral concession called "EI
Higo" in the valley- of Oaxaca, south
of Mexico City, on which, just before
his death, he expected to eollect a com
mission of 600,000 francs.
A gruesome legend connected with
"El Higo" predicted that three men
would meet violent deaths before the
earth would give up its riches. Sure
enough, three "men have met violent
deaths in connection with this prop
erty. First Bessarabo disappeared.
Three days later M. Becker, heir to
El Higo, hanged himself to a tree in
the Boise do Boulogne. Finally Henri
Leon, a "partner of Becker, was killed
in broad daylight by a madman on the
streets of Paris.
Speculation is rife as to whether the
second part of the legend at well as
the first will be fulfilled, that is.
Whether the ultiqaate heir to Kl Higo,
namely, Madame Bessarabo, will re
ceive the bloodstained wealth of
Mexico.

THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. OREGON.
RUE BANKER
DENIES PLAN TO
The Portland branch of the Federal
Reserve bank-made po attempt to em
barrass small country banks In Oregon,
Frederick Greenwood, manager, de
clared on the federal court witness
stand this morning. Greenwood was
the second witness called by the de
fense in de suit which the Brook
ings State bank has brought against
the. reserve bank, asking' a permanent
injunction to restrain the reserve bank
from protesting checks on which ex-
change is demanded.
Agents of the reserve bank stationed
in several Oregon towns where banks
refused par clearance on checks were
instructed to avoid, wherever possible,
committing any acts which would .sub
ject the state banks to any inconven
ience. Greenwood declared. The in
structions were to collect cash, except
where Cie demand for .cash would se
riously embarrass the bank. Greenwood
testified, in wbich event a draft could
be accepted.
CROSS-EXAMINE CALKIK8
Much of the morning session was
spent in cross-examination of C. U.
Calkins of San Francisco, governor of
the Twelfth reserve district. As Cal
kins left the stand Judge Wolverton
Said, that in his opinion, one of the
leading questions in the case is
whether or not the congressional act
granting the Federal Reserve bank
Charter meant Ciat the reserve bank
had the right to adopt methods which
would virtually force non-member banks
to adopt the par clearance system. At
torneys on both sides promised to dis
cuss the question fully in their final
arguments.
While on the stand Calkins admit
ted, in response to questions put by T.
T. Bennett, counseUfor plaintiff, that
while the reserve bank cashes checks
at par, it does not credit the account
to the bank qntil.from two to six days'
later. He said that it was up to the
holder of the check or the bank accept
ing it to absorb the interest loss on
those two to six days. Plaintiff ar
gued that this admission by Calkins
defeated par -clearance, and classed
the interest loss as but another form, of
exchange. '
Judge Wolverton will adjourn the
court tonight pntil Saturday morn
ing, as he will hear naturalization
cases Thursday and Friday. It will
probably be late next Monday before
the case is completed.
CALKINS DENIES CHARGE
Calkins denied Tuesday afternoon
that his bank had ever attempted to
embarrass or harass the small country
banks of Oregon, and particularly tho
Brookings State bank. He declare!
himself the friend of country bankers.
Calkins spent considerable time in
reviewing the rules and regulations
governing his institution, and in ex
plaining the benefits derived by mem
ber banks from the par clearance sys
tem. He declared that since the fed
eral reserve system had been, perfected
practically ail necessity for trans
ferring actual cash about the country
had disappeared, this procedure being
eliminated by the creation of a $525,
000,000 goldr settlement fund in the na
tional treasury.
In response to a series of questions
which Judge Wolverton asked the wit
ness during the morning session, Calk
ins answered that in his opinion the
Federal Reserve bank had the right
to refuse a draft in payment for checks
on the ground that a draft was merely
a mode of exchange, and not legal
tender.
DENIES AGENT'S ACT
The cou,rt also asked if the reserve
bank had a right to demand cash from
a small country bank even if it knew
the demand would force the bank to
close its doors. Calkins answer to
this question was not direct. He re
plied that in practice such a demand
would not be made. Then the court
reminded him of the La Pine, Or., bank
incident testified to several days ago,
where a federal reserve agent de
manded cash and refused to accept a
draft. The testimony was that but
300 remained in the bank vault when
the agent left the bank. Calkins' answer
was that the agent did what he had
never been instructed tp do.
The judge also asked Calkins if it
was a usual error far a check to
be marked "bank closed." Calkins
answered that he had encountered a
large variety of defects in the work
of bank clerks, but had never experi
enced that one before.
EXPLAINS IiKAFl SYSTEM
Calkins testified under cross examin
ation by T. T. Bennett of Marshfield
that the reserve bank was willing to
accept a draft by mail n payment for
checks, but that it was not willing to
accept the same draft over the counter.
He argued that when the reserve bank
accepts a draft over the counter of
a bank it is at onee liable for any
losses which might follow as a result
of forgeries, overdrawn accounts or
bank failures. Acceptance of a draft
by mail does not carry with it the
same liability, according to the witness.
The governor also found" fault with
the manner In which the American
Railway Express company handled the
bank's collections, stating that its
services had been very unsatisfactory,
because agents of the company con
tinually neglected to comply with, re
serve bank instructions.

LIQUOR SALES ON
(Cootinncd From Pag On)
call on President Harding to ask about
the sale of liquor on the shipping
beard's vessels.
LEFT TO LASJKEB
"This witness will swear that the
president left the decision to Lasker,
saying "you're chairman of the ship
ping board.' and he will further swear
that Lasker immediately ordered the
sale of liquor."
Laaker's denial that the government
or the shipping board was violating
the " Volstead aefwas made in a let
ter to Busch.
The general counsel of the shipping
board had held, Lasker said, that
liquor held legally could be sold on
American ships, although the depart
ment of Justice had rendered an opin
ion declaring such sales illegal.
Referring to the "practical side" of
the controversy, Lasker said that "so
long as foreign ships can enter Amer
ica serving liquor, the lack of that
privilege might be the determining
factor in the life or death of the
American merchant marine. If ! the
sale of liquor be prohibited on all
boats entering or departing from Amer
ican ports, there is no- voice in v th
shipping board that would be raised
in protest."
SEES WET MOVEMENT
Lasker told Busch . he believed him
to be "acting in the hope of creating
a public revolt against prohibition" to
again revive the sale of liquor in the
country. .
"I personally oelieve that you are
not animated by any law-abiding mo
tives In your letter to the president,
Laslter declared. "It is, of course.
notorious that the Adolphus Busch,
who founded your brewery, was pos
sibly the kaiser s closest friend in Amer
ica, and that your ram Sly for many
years has maintained a castle in XJer-
many ; your action in any event will
not displease your German friends
whose greatest hope is for a restored
German merchant marine."
WRITES CURT LETTER.
After declaring it to e "axiomatic,"
that American ships are American
property and under the laws ot the
United States wherever they may be,
Adolphus Busch, in his letter to the
president, said :
"We are reliably informed that the
advertisements of the United States
lines published in European newspa
pers announce choice wines knd liquors
on ships of the United States. The
government, however, appears to have
thought it unnecessary pr inadvisable
to take the American puimc into its
confidence by announcing that it
found it necessary, for business reasons
end for the defense of the country, to
exempt one of its own business enter
prises from the operation of the con
stitution and the enforcement act.
'May we not suggest, with all
due respect, that if the government
wishes the American people to respect
the 18th amendment and the enforce
ment act, it should prove its sincerity
by providing tbe example of obedience
to the constitution and the enforcement
act itself, or change the law."
MAKES THREE CHARGES
Busch charged the Volstead act was
being violated by the government as
follows : ;
As American sovereignty fellows the
flag, it is a violation of the constitu
tion and the enforcement act for the
government to sell intoxicating liquor
or permit its saie on Taoard any ship
of the United States anywhere In the
world.
It is a violation of the constitution
and the act for ships of the United
States to transport liquor within the
three mile coast line.
It is a violation of the law for a gov
ernment ship to possess Intoxicating
liquor within the three mile coast line.
POINTS TO INCONSISTENCT
"We are reliably informed, Buscb
continued, "that during ail the, .time
the government has been violating the
prohibition laws it has public speakers
touring the' country for the express
purpose of preaching respect for the
prohibition laws to the American peo
ple. The government's disregard of
the prohibition law and Its policy of
inspiring editorial support of the ex
emption of one of its business enter
prises from the operation of the law
on the one hand, and its feeble at
tempt to enforce it and the employment
of skilled orators to counsel respect for
the law. on the other hand, appears to
be most Inconsistent. ,
"It seems to us that the govern

Paris, June 14. It was revealed; to
day that the French delegate on the
bankers' committee made the follow
ing sensational proposition;
Germany should be asked for the
present to pay only the A and B
bonds that Is to say, fifty billion gold
marks, the remaining 82 billion gold
marks, represented by the C bonds, to
be held entirely in reserve, as compen
sation for the possible cancellation of
the allied debts or until Germany is
clearlyable to pay more.
A series of international loans would
be Issued within the next 10 years.
The bankers refused to adopt this Plan.
J. - P. Morgan declared that France
must agree to annul the C bonds defi
nitely without raising the question of
the allied debts, that aU idea of mili
tary sanctions must be abandoned and
that even then not more than 25 bil
lion marks in international loans could
be raised.

Act to Philippines

(Copyright, 1822).
Manila, June 14. At a general meet
ing of the American Chamber of Com
merce the members .took up the sub
ject' of the application of the coast
wise Shipping law (Jones act) to (the
Philippines. The chief of the bureau
bf Insular affairs, Major-General Mc
Intyre, had recommended that the en
forcement o the act should be post
poned; but the members recommended
that the directors of the chamber pass
a resolution "demanding the applica
tion of the coastwise law to the
Fhilippines immediately."
The speeches indicated that the mem
bers generally have faith that the
Americans can and will maintain an
adequate economic service from both
coasts, not only not imposing hard
ship on any one but constantly better
ing the service. 3

It Costs You More
to rot buildings than it
does to let paint save them
CHECK the costs. Compare
the prices of lumber and
paint. They will show you how
extravagant .it is to allow build
ings to depreciate for lack of
paint.
And buildings do depreciate
rapidly unless they are painted
when they need to be. Paint
saves the lumber. It protects
your investment.
To enjoy the biggest saving in
painting.'Use the best paint. It
spread more easily saves labor
cost.' It covers more surface per
gallon than "cheap" paint.
It serves five or more years
longer than 'cheap" paint. ,
The best paint is roost econom
ical because ' it is scientific in
formula and preparation. , We
have been making best paints for
73 years. '
They " contain the finest jna-1
terials. Our white lead, for in-.
stance, is PIONEER WHITE ,
