Sharp Criticism of Conditions

PORTLAND. June 4. Sharp crit

claimed the lives of 14 babies recent
ly by Mrs. Ella H. Klippeil and in
vestigators from the woman's pro
tective division, a local civic organ
ization, following an investigation
of conditions at the home.
Dr. Karl F. Meyer, on the other
hand, has defended the home and
said part of the criticism is unjust
and untrue. . Both reports deplore I
unsanitary conditions, the under
nourishment of children resulting
from tha lack of trained dietary su
pervision and the absence of a grad
uate nurse, as superintendent of the
home. .
Death by lafcctious dysentry of
14 babies during ' the past three
weeks is the reason for the dis
closures. Investigation by tu3 pro
tective bureau 'was conducted upon
the receipt of an anonmous letter.
This duty was assigned to Mra. Grtce
Nlckerson and Grace Bransf ord, op

... ANARCHISTS DENOUNCED . -WASHINGTON,
June 4. Anar
chist attempts on the life, of Attor
ney General Palmer and public men
were denounced In the house today
by Representative Blanton, of Texas,
who said he had waited 30 hours in
the hope that older members would
let the country know what congress
thought of series of outrages against
organized government.'
Mr. Blanton also made a general
attack on labor onions, saying he
had been receiving anonymous let
ters from all parts of the United
States; "telling me that If .1 ever
opened my mouth against the' unions
again! what would happen to me and
.my family.
"I hone you open your mouths.'.'
3lr. Blanton shouted, "and tell those
anarchists I do not care if they
are labor unionists- or not that if
they do not stop their practices and
I hope you tell Mr. Gompers that if
he does not purge his labor unions
of anarchy and disregard of law we
are going to catch everyone of them
that we are going to catch all the

With respect to the league of na
tiohs the British and Americaa view
at ffirst 'inclined toward admitting
Germany, on the ground that it
would bind her to keep peace; how
ever, France would not consiaer any
association with Germany . Also It
Is under-stood that President Wilson
has gradually come to M. Clemen
ceau's view of keeping Germany out
side the league;
Onpowed to Modifications.
The discussion of the -council of
four j is understood to be turning
chiefly to these topics., although a
number pf others also are receiving
attention. . M.' Clemenceau's view
from the first has been strongly
against , any modifications beyond
change of phrsology, whereas the
premier, Lloyd George, is believe J

President Wilson's view, as btatc-d
by friends, has "been, first to keep

make peace speedily. The president
also is not disposed to make mod if i'

shape the course, while the Italian
premier has virtually dropped out.
as Italy's interest is in the Aus.not
not in the German treaty. '
. i Concerning the d Jtails of the pro
posed changes, the opinion is held
that both the Sarre and Silesia con
ditions will be somewhat modified,!
but that the political status of the
Sarre district will undoubtedly re
main under the league of nations,
with an eventual plebiscite.

Besides making the amount of the
reparations definite, the time for the
first payment may be extended. Tho
allies have fixed two years, the Gr

measure.

Loud applause, unchecked by the

chamber when the final vote was an

and many Jubilation meetings were

Of the absentees. Senators Owen

tion and Senator Smith of Georgia
was an opponent. Including paired
and absent senators the actual sen
ate lineup was 40 Republicans and
26 Democrats for the resolution and
nine Republicans and 21 Democrats
in opposition. . v
The amendment as it will be add

The presentation of Senator Hitch
cock s resolution curprised many
senators on both sides of the cham
ber. Earlier In the day the Ne
braska senator had conferred with
Acting Secretary Polk at the stata
department but neither of,,ths
would discuss the conference, i Intro
duction of the measure resulted In
no discussion on the senate floor
and under the rules It went over with
out action. The day's developments.
however, were taken as forecasting
another bitter debate tomorrow
when the resolution of Senator John-
ion, Republican, of California, ask
ing the state department for th
treaty text, again comes before the
senate. -
Vot Hoped For
Senator Johnson hopes to -press
his resolution to a vote during the
day. He expects to have the support
of all opponents of the league of na
tions and some of those who favor
the league. The leaders on both
sides, however, conceded that vote'
would be close.
Whether the state department ac
cedes to the senate's request, should
the Johnson resolution pass, has not
been revealed by department offi
cials. They have consistently de
clined to make any statement on de
velopments In the senate. It was
assumed, however, that the time of
publication of the treaty either
would be or has been referred for
decision to President . Wilson and
Secretary Lansing at Paris.
Senator Hitchcock had not decid
ed tonight whether he will, call bd
his resolution tomorrow. He may do
so during the first two hours of the
session but at the end of that time
it automatically would be replaced
by the Johnson resolution.
