THE OREGON DAILY UOUIINAJU-. PORTLAND, OREGON. SATURDAY, SEPTE3IBER 16, 1922. SUBSIDY 'TO COME OP AT SESSION 0 MBER Br Dta itwitM (Copyright. 122. by Th JwjnuU) . Washington, Sept 11 A special ses sion of congress, for the middle -of No vember. Just after fcae elections, is like ly to be called by. President Harding. The president wauls suip subsidy leg- .iatfis. Kv firman mt before the regular appropriations bill of ; tbs December senelon.' The two f weeks Immediately after tbe November Sections and be tern the regular session begins will enable the nous to dispose of the merchant marine ... measure by means of a special ru.e. This would give the senate sometii.ng to work on immediately in December. "Ordinarily !he senate marks tin, during the first few weeks of December waiting fos the house. to originate and pass appropria tion bills. Mr. Harding gave notice some time ago in a ietttr Ao Chairman Campbell of the house .tiles" committee that if the ship subsidy bill wasn't passed before coJgtess adjourned a rpeclal session woula oe called. STRIKE SLAYZi 1, 'The president recentfy wrote house leader that he w ould not press - the matter at this session, as tbs strike slt , nation at that time threatened to com.' 'plicate the whole legislative program. His consent to postponement did not mean abandonment of the merchant marine legislation. On the contrary, it was deemed better strategy' to wait until after the N'rvemoer elections. . .The interjection of tbs prohibition issue had much to jo with the decision to postpone ship- subsidy legislation un til after the elections. While the ad ministration foresees io difficulty- In solving the matter of, liquor 'sales on foreign and American ships touching the -shores of the United States, it was conceded that debate on the. subject before election might add unnecessary complications to the congressional cam paign. -. JfO FIXED POLICY 'The administration has no fixed pol icy" about the sale of liquor on Ameri can ships. The law on the case is con sidered ambiguous but the economics of the situation n ciear td prohibit iiquor sales means an advantage to the passenger ships of foieign flags. If congress adds an amour, l In the subsidy ! to compensate American owners for their 'loss the administration has noi objection to make the ships dry. And if congress passes a taw without taking into account lossei to American ships then the question of arranging by treaty that foreign ships shall not carry liquor to and from American .shores will arise. It. is doubtful whether foreign countries will agree. Perhaps the whol-v matter will be left In abeyance, the status quo being main tained, until treaty arrangement can be made placing foreign ships on tbe same basis as American vessels. HARDING IS EAGLE ' Mr Harding is so anxious to get -rid of the shipping problem, so eager to get the merchant marine on a sound basis, that he will no doubt be willing to follow the wish of congress on this point and will press for the legislation Itself, .... .:-,.!.. . . .s,.t:- , ..... , Although the fate ot the ship sub sidy "bill has be-ervartously pictured, the fact is President Harding means to Insist on the measure. It is unlikely that congress will vurn him down, as pe will then ask congress to bear the responsibility for highei costs in gov ernment operation ana maintenance of the war fleet on a competitive basis with tbe vessels oC otl.tr countries, The special session in November can be taken for granted. Congress will have no excuse to evade the issue, as the session would be caLed for one pur : pose only-the' creation of an American merchant marine through the sale "of I government ships to private companies HALL TEST SUIT TO I BE FILED AT EUGENE (Ooatiaasd From rasa On) duty under the law is to file such cer tificate and certify the name of the person .therein contained, unless other wise ordered by the court.' BTATtXTB HOT PASSED UrOS ; Van Winkle, in his! opinion, does not attempt to Question the validity of the statute relating to Hall's status as a candidate Tor governor or Its effective ness as a 'bar to Hall's candidacy, but simply holds that the duty ot enforcing tbs bar offered by the statute is not im posed "upon the secretary of state, but upon the governor, who, he points out, "shall not Include in his proclamation tnr such candidate who seeks political preferment at the general, election after having sought and lost his party nom ination at the primary election." Quoting the Oregon statue covering the case in 'point.' Van Winkle declares that the duty to preclude such a candl data who is forbidden by the statute from running as the candidate of a baity with which he was not afftftl ated at the time of filing his primary petition, or as an independent candl date .is cast upon the county clerk as to a county office, and upon the gov ernor as to state and district offices, and nowhere is thai secretary of- state authorised or directed to pass upon the same. -The status bv its express terms an. plies directly to the candidate who is in - the condition there expressed, the opinion' continues, "namely that he shall not be certified as having been nominated in the one case or elected in the other," XAYT, IS EXriAIXED . It is a welt established nrlnciDle and rule of official conduct that all laws. unless obviously and plainly on their lacs otherwise, are to do considered valid and binding until and unless declared invalid by a court of com petent Jurisdiction and this rule ap plies to all ministerial and administra tive officers. "But irt ,ths present instance there Is no occasion for inquiring into the validity of such statue, and I there fore express no opinion thereon, both for the reason already stated ar-d for the runner reason that in my opinion, your duties In this respect are purely DAKCE WITH ME UNDER THE CRYSTAL BALL LATEST 1AXCE NOVELTY ' :- SEXSATION Hear those haunting, taunting met rwMes played by Webb's famous Xixt Players, largest and . best dance orchestra in town. . ;.'

SPECrrATioir Borsint, at TO If EXT 'MOTE OF HALL Salem, Sept. The opinion of At torney General Van Winkle having set at rest speculation as to the pos sibility of Charles Hall's name going on the November ballot as an inde pendent candidate and it having beek authoritatively, announced byr friends of Governor Olcott that " no s lesral action would be taken to restrain Secretary of State Kozer from follow ing the advice of the attorney general. speculation about the capitol has now turned to the effect of the attorney general's interpretation of the election law upon Hall's candidacy. Will he be content to let matters stand as they are for the present, making a bid for support at the No vember election ; on the chance that the offlcewould be denied him, even though he should succeed in corrall ing a plurality of the vote, and seek ing relief in the courts from his statu-, tory Inhibition i at . that timer, FBTEKDLT SUIT POSSIBLE . Or will he seek at once, through a friendly suit, to secure a- court in terpretation of the election law as U applies to his status as a r candidate. In the hope of a more i favorable Interprtation, before launching actively into the fall campaign? ' t Secretary of State Koxer this morn ing announced that Hall's name would be certified to the various county clerks of the state as an Independent candidate for governor. Only a court action in the form of a restraining order -can keep him from following the advice of the attorney general as to his duties in the present situation. A friendly suit, brought to restrain theJ secretary or state irom carrying out this declared intent, it is pointed out. -Would bring the mooted point to Im mediate issue and determine definitely the status of a defeated primary can didate under the Oregon law. COUBT HEMEDT OPEN j Should Hall, however, be" content with the situation as it now stands, going into the fall election with the possibility of an election certificate being refused him, even with a plural ity of the vote in his favor, it Vis pointed out that courts are always open to those seeking remedies lor their grievances, real or fancied. Complications foreseen in certain quarters as . a result of the attorney general's ruling are generally ridiculed here. In the opinion of the attorney general, it la pointed out hnr tth.ii cannot legally be a candidate for gov- ci-frur in we xoruicoming election. This being the case Hall's standing m the election result, even though it be ths highest of several candidates, would not be taken into consideration. mo mgn man or me legally qualified candidates would be the duly eiscted governor. Should there be any question as to this, it is pointad mt : n,.... Olcott would unquestionably proclaim eiwuon, in the event he -was shown to be the chnfo nt th if only to bring the question to issue injunction suit before the su preme court.

The only surprise In the voting was the switch of Watson of Georgia In favor of the bill He" had been opposed to it previously and was counted on by the opposition in the event of a veto. In casting his vote for the bill Senator Watson explained that it was "by; no means what I would like to have it be for the soldiers, but' as It Appears to be the best we can get, I shall vote for it. SWITCH CHA5GES SITUATION Those hoping for a veto had claimed prior to Watson's switch that they had 34 senators, one more than necessary to. sustain tha president even if the entire membership was present and voting, pledged against the bill. -With the Georgian now.for it they caw claim only 3 4 votes, exactly enough to pre. vent passage of the measure over a veto if every senator for it is present and votes or is paired. The burden thus appears to be upon the leaders of both sides to get every senator present If the president does send the bill back with his disapproval. In view of this situation. It is not un likely that' pairs, which, is such a case would be two senators for the bill as against one opposed to It, will be hard to arrange; Eeed College Gains In Enrollment at Beginning of Term Reed college enrollment has mount ed tt 294, an Increase of t 19 Over ths number entering on the day Of en rollment.
