This wa a thrust taken at the
telephone monopoly yesterday by
Major , Garrison Babcock, star wit
ness for the city of Portland in
the telephone 'rate hearing, as be
Indicated' an inch-thick volume
that lay before him containing a
; list of modern telephone patents
7 devices which are not in use In
the state of Oregon, for. the rea
son, doubtless, that if the were
more In use the telephone busl-
: nesa could be operated much more
economically and with consequent
lower rates than It is in Oregon
at the present time.
Patents Enumerated
A count of the patents in the
list showed 2501 owned or coni
trolled by the American Telephone
& Telegraph company ; 244 to
which that company has exclusive
or- practically exclusive rights;
1391 under which it is licensed to
operate; a grand total of 4136.
Discussion of patents in the af
ternoon session started when At
torney Tomllnson, representing
Portland, read a lengthy article
from Lima; (O.) News tinder the
caption "Lima Telephone ServicH
Spreads Fame of City Throughout
World." It was a story of re
markable efficiency cf a plant
. that stands unlqao In . American
- cities from the point of view of
satisfactory . public service, so

Portland Could Have Money
Lima uses the semi-automatic

! "The American Telephone &

portunity to use. without royalty,
all the devices that have brough

the comment-of Major Babcock.

- The economy of tire move would
more than offset the investment
in the plant."

INDIAN SIGN LANGUAGE TO
BOY SCOUTS AT BIG CAMP
Chemewa Man Will Take Youngsters Back Into Unwritten
History of America When Moccasins Were Traded for
Arrows or Wampum With Never a Spoken Word
They're going to go back more
than a hundred years into the un
written hiHtory of America at the
Boy Sc6ut camp in the national
forest, which begins August 8.
It's a mighty interesting story.
George P. Dent of Chemawa In
dian school is a genuine Chey
enne Indian chief of the bluest
and reddest blood that ever flowed
in th west. From his people he
has learned the ancient sign lan
guage; everything that they ever
knew of communicating without
the use of -spoken or written sym
bols. Perhaps one might not explain
the wireless, or bolshevism, or a
problem from Euclid by these
immemorial signs, but every liv
ing fact that had to do with daily
life on the early plains is there
as plain as the dawn. Mr. Dent
has all this Indian lore that is
today almost a lost art. .He is
going to teach it to the Scout3
in their camp, and they are to
have a rare and altogether unique
Arthur Hamilton and Keith
Draper, two Salem Boy Scouts,
were yesterday awarded the Scout
gold medal, the highest award
possible in the Scout code, for
risking their lives to save com
panions from drowning. Benja

bronze medal, lesser only in de
gree and not in kind, for the
same unselfish service. !
One of the most wonderful ser

given two weeks' ago by the Rev.

This is the substance of a paid

of Salem Friday.
They were skeared. about their

cut their patriotic throats I while
they wondered what it .was all
about?
But It wasn't anything so very

They couldn't forget him. When
the Hood River American legion
boys planned to make a climb up
Mount Hood next week, they
thought of Harry Sines and his

"Get Harry for our cook and
we can jump clean over the dog

dict; so they started out to sleuth
for Harry.
He has been living in Salem, on
South 'Twenty-fifth street. The
legion; post, relieved or its first
fears, located him, and he is go

they make the big climb. If any

IRISH ISSUE

Another Meeting Between

AMENDMENT SUGGESTED

Leader Goes to Dublin for
Week-end Conference
With Colleagues
LONDON, July 22. (By The
Associated Press) Tho future
course of the Irish negotiations
seems to turn on two important
points first, whether another
meeting between Sir James Craig,
the Ulster premier, and Eamonn
De Valera can be brought about in
Ireland.and, second, whether Mr.
De Vaiera can be induced to con
sent to a solution of the situation
through an amendment of the ex
isting home rule act. presuming
that such a solution can be worked
out.
Tho second question appears to
hinge on a desire on the part of
the contending parties to hold to
their ideals. Mr. Lloyd George, as
a concession to the Unionist sec
tion of the coalition, wishes to
save the home rule-act and Mr. De
Valera and his party, on the other
hand, would prefer to destroy the
"partition act."
Pe Valera To Dublin
Mr. De Valera is expected to
spend the week-end in Dublin in
miuruiai lain. wuu nis colleagues
and probably. will summon a meet
ing of the Dial Eireann next week
to examine the government's of
fer. The convening of the Dial
Eireann, it is understood here,
would be an indication that the
offer was regarded as the possible
basis for further negotiations. Tbe
supposition is that if the draft of
fer is not approved by Arthur
Griffith and other leaders, the Dial
Eireann will hardly be convened,
while if the leaders accept the
draft the sanction of the Dial Eire
ann is certain to follow.
Developments 'Delayed
Among the Sinn Feiners in Lon
don no definite development in the
negotiations is to be expected for
10 days or more. The terms of
the government's proposal appar
ently will not be announced with
out a prior agreement between
Premier Lloyd George and Mr. De
Valera.
According to apparently inspir
ed statements, however, they are
of a somewhat tentative character,
intended to indicate the lines on
which the government considers a
solution of the situation possible,
provided both Ulster and the Sinn
Fein are able to agree and request
the government to amend the act.

"What section of the city I

During these. hot days whon ,

- who remembers the old tbiys when

The fart of the matter is that
the call is merely a signal to fire
