GENERAL MORTON
IN PORTLAND ON
Commanding General of Ninth
' Armv Corns Savs He Regards
... J -
' Army too. 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,

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. He Is a ' West Point man
and is now second highest ranking
officer In the army.' - Following his
service in. France he was in command
of the department of Hawaii.""
WILL CALL OJT GOVERXOBV
.While here General. Morton will visit
Salem and call ' upon ; the governor.
He will visit the training camps at
Oregon Agricultural college and at
Eugene. He has - been forced to can

defenses on account of lack of time.
He will spend some time at Vancoaver
barracks with General Blatehford.

Menorah Society
Convention to, Be
Held at Portland
A convention of the chapters west

national organization of Jewish stu
dents, will be held in Portland from

auspices- of , the Jewish students of
Reed college.

lege wiU make the first address.
Other speakers -during the convention

Julietta Kahn. national secretary of
the organisation, Rabbi Martin Meyer
and Dr. Samuel C. Kohs, professor of
sociology at Reed college. Besides

debates on Jewish problems and sym
posiums will be held.
The Menorah society was organized
at Harvard university In 191S. At
present it has chapters In all the large
colleges and universities where there
are enough Jewish students to justify
them.
' 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

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.

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.
