THE OREGON -DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, OREGON.: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER. CO 1C22. DOUBLE-GROSSED BY EDDY GROUP,' DECLARES USER Contending: that he Is "happy In deed in the knowledge1 that h is not going to b president of the senate be- . .cause h "would not care to accept the responsibilities of that office in .view ' xt the present temper and line-up of he senators.. Senator Gus C Moser -of Multnomah county last night issued a lengthy statement reviewing the or- : ganization fight. In -this be brands "Senators Eady, Joseph and Staples tn particular of "double crossing'-1 him, -and says that he told, them "that if that was - their method : of keeping promises, whether political or other .wise, that I was through." The sena tor aleo Bays that he voluntarily tea dered his vote to Senator Upton be cause "The more X thought of the .methods of Joseph, staples and Eddy, the more I became convinced that they should nobe In control of the senate." 1EATES FOE EAST '; Senator Moser issued the statement .ori the , ere of bis departure ' for a : "three or four weeks business trip In ' 'ibe East. .After reviewing- the prelim inary Incidents leading up to the -Wangled .events of recent date.

I tiid meet them, and it developed that . during- my absence Senator Kddy had succeeded In securing the pledges of Several senators who had previously - indicated that they might give me their support, but who had not actually been f)ledged to me, and upon a show-down t developed that Senator Kddy had jiine votes absolutely pledged and I had six. EJddy felt certain of one additional vote, but could show , no absolute pledge. . - v- The supporters of - Senator Kddy -were: Senators Kddy. Garland, Brown.

Staples and myself were present, it' was proposed by Senator .Joseph and others of the' Eddy tup porters that we make a solemn pom- pact that neither of us would negotiate with the Eastern Oregon ''seven" under ;any circumstances, but that we would - stand together and our combination . would either win or go down to defeat i ' The . declarations to that effect were : very positive and I agreed thereto, but .they accepted a modification offered on 'my part to the effect that if conditions : should develop which might make it -advisable to negotiate with Kastern .' Oregon, that the parties present should meet again and determine whether or not that was advisable. Except as to thi modification on my part the agree- - ,nent was to be absolutely binding and 1 ."we shook hands upon it - As Eddy .was abio to show .the most pledges 1 agreed to use my influence - rwith my supporters to come to his support so far as I could, and I pro . reeded to do so I Informed them at the time that there were two of my supporters who, I feared, would , not scree to suorjort Eddv. but I thoberl.t ;tnai 11 wouia re sate to count upon four of us, and we ought to be able to get the necessary 16 by Inducing , senators vjorDeit ana jonnson to join us. iiowever, oniy two or my support- . ers besides- mysel could be induced to support Eddy, and after 48 hours of effort we were unable to increase the .-Kddy strength beyond 13. Then, upon - the suggestion of Senator Eddy to me, we attempted to secure the necessary .. .pledges Tor senator Farrell. I was 'able to get on additional pledge of my , supporters Tor mm. ana we got 14 . pledges for Farrell. It was while we .were still endeavoring to get additional votes for J- arren that the caucus be- t ween the Eastern Oregon delegation and the Hall forces announced that they had 18 votes..: These votes having been secured uy misrepresentation, it - was only a short time until the pre tended 18 votes bad been reduced 8 ATS BE HAD 15.

At about 3 o'clock- that evening 1 called Senator Joseph on the phdne at his office. He was there and I asked him. "Where are our boys?" He said ,. rllft tint bnnw mnd that he had not seen any of them for two hours, but that he would be over in a xew minuiea.

But as a result of their com" bination It was agreed- that - neither the Eastern Oregon delegation nor- the Eddy rarcea would nave any negotia tions with me or my supporters. This h how I have apparently become aa ifoutcast. 1 1 , r---,. - ' Let it be remembered that up to the time this compact was Vnade between Senator Eddy and his forces and "the Eastern Oregon delegation, the solemn compact Senator Eddy and his forces had made with me on the previous Sat urday had 'not been broken por .can celled, asd there had been no -intimation of any conference -with Eastern Oregon and the Eddy supporters were supposed to be at that time for . me. I was ready at any time, when the leaders of our combination deemed ' it advisable, to again' step aside and do what X could to help lect Senator Eddy, or; Senator Farrell, or any one else who might be agreed uponv but the subject of my standing aside was not even broached to me. SEES DOUBLE-CROSS v t When I learned of this double-crossing on the parts of Senators Eddy, Jo seph and Staples in particular, I went to them and told them if that was their method . of keeping promises, whether 'political or otherwise, that' I was through. They each denied -to me that they had made any such combina tion, but 1 have the word of Senators Ritner. . Corbett and others that they did. v ? - . . There had been so much double- crossing, misrepresentation and milling about on this presidency of the senate that I became disgusted and ault.. and I did not intend to announce my sup port of any one. but tha more I thousht of the methods of Joseph, Staples and I'-aay, ins more x became convinscd that they should not Je in control of the senate, and I therefore voluntarily pledged my support to Senator Upton, without anv promise or agreement' of any kind and with the absolute and defi nite statement which I made - to the public, that I sought no favors and no committee appointments. It is my. de- Fire to r a xreeiance at tne - coming session, acd not be under ..obligations to any one. but I am wondering whether th- ."solid seven" from East ern -Oregon,; who 'worked for several nays to pet the cecessary votes Jor Senator Upton as president, .are how going td violate their pledge simply because I have voluntarily chosen to vote for Senator Upton. CALLS IT DISHONORABLE There are numerous . other eirciim. stances which I might mention, quite as dishonorable as those I have al ready recited, but I shall no.t mention them now. 1 do wum to publicly ab solve Senator Hare of Hillaboro-of any participation in this dishonorable deal. He was not present, and did not know what was going on. 1 I snail refrain from further partici pation in i the . contest, except to cast my vote in accordance with my pledge, and it shall -be my aim. to contribute my part to making the coming session o the legislature a success, although I confess that I am fearful of what may be -accomplished, in view of the very unfavorable start that baa been made. -! r I wish to further state that I have no grievance sgainst any one be cause I was not the choice for presi dent.; I am happy. Indeed, in the knowledge that 1 am not sroing to be the president because. I would not care to -aceept the responsibilities of that office in view of the present tem per and line-up of the senators.

Cousens' assertiveness has plunged hint into frequent spats with politicians - and public leaders throughout the nine years he has been in public life, since retiring a raulti millionaire from the Ford Motor com pany he has clung to the doctrine of tolerance in all his contacts with others, both in public and private life. Next to bis pride in this respect stands his ebulliency of spirits.

However, couaens is. not merely a practical man, an accumulator or for tunes. . . ...': i Much has'' been said of his hospital plans and other' philanthropic' deeds. - Cousens 1 loves the . outdoors. - Not only does he like to keep himself physically fit, but he rets a spiritual benefit from beautiful country scenes such, as those to be found In every direction from his property in Bloom field hills .and his stock - farm at Rochester. ' Coupled: with his Innate. love of na ture and its beauties is Senator .Cous ens' deep . affection for his ' children.
