KUSER WILL ACCEPT
SUPERINTENDED OF
STATE BOYS SCHOOL
. Governor Olcott yesterday received a telegram from Mr.
and Mrs. W. L. Kuser of Ehfbra, la., announcing that they
have accepted the offer of the Oregon .state hoard of control
to become respectively superintendent and manager of the
state training' school, at a joint salary of $5000 a year.
Mr. and Mrs. Kuser recently visited Oregon and were
shown plans and site of the proposed new training school,
and at that time the offer was made them to come to thisr
state. They took the proposal under? advisement and re
turned to Iowa. Mr. Kuser has beein head of the Iowa
school for many years. ; j
Governor Olcott and Secretary of State Kozer voted for
Mr. and Mrs. Kuser at the board meeting at which they were
elected, while State Trasurer O. P. Hoff opposed the election.
The treasurer favored the retention ofjL. M. Gilbert, incum
bent. The new heads begin their work here January 1.
The location of the new train-!
ing school and the election of Mr.
and Mrs. Kuser was the first out
standing break in the present
board of control, with the gover
nor and the secretary of state on
one side and the treasurer on the
other, though the break has been
apparent for some months.
One objection made by Hoff to
the new training school was that
it wa3 too near the state peniten
tiary and its influences, but be
was overruled on that score by the
other two, members. After tne
election of Mr. and Mrs. Kuser

Tears in Eyes of Marshal Foch

Marshal Foch stayed here today
rather than disappoint several
thousand school children who had
been told they might get a chance
to see him. He had expected to
go to Fort Leavenworth, Kans., to
visit the garrison, then he learned
there was a plan to have school
children lined up along the boulei
vards, that he might wave to
them, and they to him. Lieuten

Much criticism has been made
of the manner in which Silverton
has neglected the Davenport

been the intention of Silverton
friends, : says Julius Wolfe, who is
secretary of the new organization
which has been formed. Mr.
Wolfe: Says that in 1916 a com

funds but the war brough on so
many more urgent calls for funds
that this work bad to be set aside
for thei time being.
Now' hat the campaign commit

is expected that the work will be
carried out to completion without
any more delay. Although the
bulk of the funds for the memor

people the campaign will not be
limited to the Silverton commun
ity. It will be a national campaign
as Homer Davenport had many
friends throughout the States and
Great Britain.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.Con'
ferences between the American
delegation to the conference on
arms limitation and technical ad
visers will continue even after the
conference has opened.
It was indicated today at the
state department where the Am
erican delegates again were in
session with Secretary Denby and
the naval advisers on technical
matters, that there would probab
ly be termination of this discus
sion of naval armament matters
or of any other specific matters
the meetings going on as occas
ion requires even after the con
ference opens.
Naval Question I'ppermost
So far, the American delegates
are understood to have concerned
themselves primarily with naval
armament matters, no other sub
jects such as those involving
possible association of nations
plan or a world court having been
considered.
The first meeting of the con
ferences is now scheduled for
10:30 a.m:, November 12, in the
auditorium of the building erect
ed by the Daughters of American
Revolution.
Today was the first time Sec
retary Hughes had gone to the
union station to meet any incom
ing delegates and cordial greet
Ings were exchanged by him and
other members of the American
reception party with the Japanese
delegates.
Photographs ade
A brief halt was made in the
president's room for photographs
to be taken. The. national em
blems of the two countries were
played and then, under cavalry
escort, the delegation proceeded
to their residences.
The Japanese delegation arriv
ed, its leaders said, with thn de
sire and hope of discussing first
at the conference, the question
of limitation of armament and
not Far Eastern problems. The
Japanese viewpoint, it was ex
plained, was that Pacific and Far
Eastern questions might prove
full of difficulties and if taken
up first, negotiations might be
delayed.
The pleasant journey across
the continent from Seattle was in
striking contrast to the stormy
sea voyage. As far as possible,
secrecy was maintained as to the
itinerary, precautions beine tak -
