Small for Nation,. Major General C. G. , Morton, com manding general of the Ninth' United states army -corps area, comprising liie eight Western state and Alaska, arrived ; in Portland, Saturday eve ning, for a four-day visit in the vicin ity of Portland, on a tour of inspec tion. " " ' . General Morton, next in rank to General . Pershing, 'is accompanied by TlMw -1 V. I V. an enthusiast for the -Northwest that she made the trip north from San Francisco in spite of the fact that it is to be a strenuous one, with -many sfde trips to make i FJrst Jet me say that the I. W. W. situation in Portland haa absolutely nothing.' to do with my presence here," said General Morton, smiling, "I re gard it as very .necessary and pleas ing part of my duties' to keep in touch with the people of the Ninth cprps area, and I spend about half of ray time visiting the posts and inspecting training schools and conferring- on matters which, have to do with army affairs in my territory. . ARMY SMALL BUT MIGHTY "The . army now is down tp a very wmall size forsuch a nation, and we feel the shortage keenly. We now have about, 125,00 men. One end of the army is in China and the other in Germany and the part between is here. I hope that congress in its great wisdom will realize that we haven't enough troops or enough officers to keep up the posts in good order. There was a movement on foot to do away wlttl Vancouver barracks 'and Camp Lewla for the present, but by strenu ous, effort the garrisons will both be kept as permanent posts. LEWIS AT HALF STHEXGTH Lewis is kept at about half its strength before the reduction of the army began and Vancouver is about the same as at the. beginning of the reduction process. We. hope that con gress in the near future will give us more men and more money for the army. We need them both." General Morton declares t that he finds that the west coast has suf fered less from th effects of ih war than any other part of the country. LHPKESSED WITH 2KT WEST , "The 'Northwest looks solid indus trially." said the general. "Ip fact, the whole Pacific Coast seems to be, But Portland and Seattle seextt ee cially active in a business way General - Morton spent ! a ' ysear in France in command of the 2$tH divis ion, which included troops from Vir ginia, Maryland and the : District of Columbia.

' A special committee appointed by the board of governors . of the city club, and composed of Sidney J. Graham; II, W. Hughes and John H. Lewis, to investigate the merits fcf the proposed "charter amendment relative to water bonds, which wilL be submitted to the voters of Portland November 7, has filed its report recommending .that the measure be approved by the voters. The report thoroughly ansJyzes the proposed amendment which has two sections, the first relating to the issu ance of bonds for additions to the prop erty, and the second authorizes refund ing of the water bonds Issued July I, 1893, Wmouatine to 12 '00.000, and which tecome due July i of next year. SEIjiF-SUSTAIXIJTCr . " : j , i " This, report shows that the amend ment has been prepared with the idea of niacins:, the water bureau upon a self-sustaining basis, as it makes reve nues from the sale of water primarily liable for payment of principal and ln tereet on the bonds. It requires the council to make estimates of the prob able cost of operation, maintenance and depreciation of the water works. together with interest and sinking funds required for all oustandtng In debtedness during the ensuing year, and thereupon to fix the water rates for the year at figures which will insure a sufficient income to pay for such expense and cost. Other provis ions pertain to (the method by which the sinking fund'shall be created, and on this subject the repot t says: BETTER B05D P KICKS -This will protect .the financial in tegrity of the city and should, result in a better -price being obtained jfor the bonds.' "The second section," says the re port, "specifically authorizes the ! re funding of bonds becoming due juiy 1, 1925, which were Issued tor property that-will, be ?n use for many years. This authority must be granted, I oil the future development of the water ! svstem will be seriously handicapped land the credit of the city of Portland 1 in.trj I EN J. DITTU. Her. ' . 1 1 r A.

PEGGY BEAL TRIAL SET FOR MONDAY To Ask for Acquittal on Ground That She Killed Lover to . Save Other Women. Kansas City, ilo., Oct. 2J. (U. P ) Pretty Peggy Beal. who killed lifer "perfect lover' Frank Anderson, of Indianapolis, to save other women, will go on trial here Monday, Prosecuting Attorney Cameron Orr announced to night. ; The case,naoBt unusual in Kanss City's history, will be called on docket in Judge Ralph S. Latshaws court, although delays' may postpone formal opening until Wednesday, Orr said. Relying on the twisted biblical ad monition, "1 am my sister's keeper," Mrs. Beal alone will take the stand to fight for freedom, according to plans of the defense tonight. - i TO SAVE OTHEBS J She plans to recite the story of her life how She left Dayton, Ohio, to come to Kansas City on the promise of marriage from the man she loved, then found he had a wife and discov ered a list of 50women in many cities of the country with whom he claimed intimacies. ! "I thought of i those girts who were to suffer as I did. so I killed him," Peggy has said in explaining the shooting of Anderson In a hotel room here. She will rely on this to free her from charges of secoed degree murder, S. Oeorge Birmingham, her attorney, said tonight. j BOOK AS ETIDESCE The prosecution plans to try and show the shooting was premeditated. A copy of "Thuvia. Maid of Mars," will be introduced In the trial, Orr said. The book was found opened at a pic ture showing "Thuvia" bending over her slain lover. After Anderson was shot, Mrs. Beal turned the gun on herself. Powder burns Ignited her fitmy gar-, ments and she vwas severely; burned when police broke . into the room. Weeks of recuperation durinjr' which she was subjected', to a skin grafting operation, followed. Since her release from the hospital she has been In the county jail. HOOD RIVER PEOPLE WELCOME GOVERNOR (Continued From File One) MILLIONS BLOCK FRAUD INQUIRIES. DAUGHERTY SAYS Every Means Resorted To to In terfere With Investigation of Irregularities, Prosecutor Says ' Canton, Ohio.. Oct SI. ;More than 400 war i fraud cases, representing bu ttons of dollars; are now undergoing liquidation,'' Attorney General Harry 34. Paugherty declared here tonight la an address to Ohio Republicans. "Recoveries," he said, "will be' made. Many -settlements towill toe and -nave been made. - "Tihe unjustifiable financial Tosa to the ; American government, however, can ! never be fully recovered." ; . . - Every known method of Interference and! intrigue to block the war frauds investigation, said, the attorney gen eral, was attempted by those involved. He continued; j N "There is no limit to their resources. They ;had more of their illegal gotten money for defense than the government had -fer . Investigation. They had no re gard for the government and.no re gard for the character of any man in position, high or- low. , "No name was sacred, and in fact, no life was safe if It Stood in- the way of. their escape." - -When available funds had been ex hausted and congress was asked for a half minion dollars' appropriation to carry on the work, said the attorney general, the storm toroke loose. governor declared that at no time had he permitted any political influence to control or Interfere with the work 'of this department. Every time any ef fort had been made to introduce poli tics into the highway commission he had used his power and vetoed such legislation, he said. Governor Olcott asserted he favors continuation of the market road pro gram and desires to see the Roosevelt highway completed. The program, he said, calls for laterals in all directions for the benefit of the farming commu nities. The governor's talk, in which he did not refer to his opponent, was greeted with prolonged cheers by his large audience. I PIERCE IS ATTACKED The other speaker was Thomas B Kay and from the outset he settled down to dissect -and refute statements made by Walter M. Pierce, Democratic candidate for governor, in his state wide campaign. I He declared that Pierce had made a number of promises of an indirect nature, but has not at tempted to show in concrete form what these promises amount to. He as serted that Pierce, as senator, had voted for measures which covered fully 95 per cent of the entire taxation for which the legislature is responsible. Governor Olcott, he declared, had had the tax problem under consid eration for some time and in 1921 ap pointed a committee to Investigate angles of the problem in all parts of the state. The result had been' the formation of the tax investigation commission. 1 FIGUBES ABE QUESTIONED Kay declared that many of Pierce's tax. statistics were false, especially that in which he stated that taxes for state government i expenses had in creased 300 per cent in three years. He analysed figures given out- by Pierce in an effort to show that many inaccuracies bnd i wrong conclusions had been arrived at by the Democratic nominee. . , Concluding, he said that Pierce had proved as reckless In figures as in promises regarding reduction of taxes and declared that Pierce himself knows as well as anybody that he could, even if- elected, do! little to check tax ation unless her could persuade the people to vote swrainst taxes. r OYEBjroa YISITS DUFTTB The Dalles. Oct.) 21. Governor Ben W. Olcott spent most of the morning at Dufur, when he visited every busi ness house and apent some time with Frank B. Ingels, his former associate in a bank in Fairbanks, Alaska. Lost Lake Road Is Progressing, Says U.S. Forest Ranger Stanley C. Walters, forest ranger of Hood River, visited Portland Friday and reported that work on the road to tost Lake is progressing- favorably. The road which comes in from Dee and enters the national forest for some dis tance is now being surfaced, but the work will probably have to be dis continued for the winter by the end of this month. The road bed! being slashed along the east side or tne lake. The property which will be opened by this road wilt include ldts for 104 summer homes, 'but applications can not be made valid as yet because a large part of the property is owned by the Oregon Lumber company, which has not yet completed transfer of title to the government under the exchange law. The Ixst Lake country promisee to be one of the most scenic and popu lar of camp sites in Oregon for the summer months.
