WASHINGTON, May 6. The
provisions of the immgiration bill

ferees tonight to be effective July

did not go as far as had been wish
ed bv the chief- executive. Al
though justliow long a delay had
been desired by both' the presi
dent and secretary of state in or
der that, through diplomatic ex
changes, less offense' might be
given to Japan," has never been
on thnHtntlTlv disclosed.
irhothpr iho arrangement as
now agreed upon by the conferees
would constitute sufficient cause
for a veto of the immigration bill
was not disclosed at the White
House, but It was said that the
president did not consider the two
months remaining before July 1 at
all sufficient time In which to ne
eotiate with Japan.
The conferees at their meeting
today disposed of all other disput
ed points so that the bill will be
submitted tomorrow to the house
tnd then to the senate.. Whether
the report of the conferees will
be adopted in the face of indicat
ed legislative disagreement was
-not apparent although prior to the
White House position became
known a favorable vote was re-
garded as certain. " i ; :
In completing their agreement,
i the conferees decided upon the
eenate-quota basis of 2 per cent
of the eensus of 1890 until July
1, 1927, when the so-called "na
tional origin method" will be em
ployed, the total admittances,
however, being restricted to 150,
000 annually, from that date.
Provisions of the house bill re
lating to "non-auota" immigrants
were adopted substantially without
change. , Under them, wives, un
married .children under 18 years
. of . American citizens, professors
and ministers, students in accred
ited schools and returning aliens
would be considered outside the
quota if they obtained certificates.
During debate in the senate it was
charged that these ' exceptions
would have the effect of doubling
" the totaL annual immigration esti
mated at about 160,000 under the
; bill. i :
Persons born in independent
countrle of the '. western hemis
phere Including Canada would be
admissible also upon presentation
of certificate wlthouj reference to
any quota. '-"''I-' jfl"

Night Especially Directed

Hundreds Decide for Christ
at Conclusion of
Meeting
Almost 4000 young people of
Salem and vicinity heard "The
Glory of Youth" at the tabernacle
last night, when Mrs. Victoria
Booth-Clibborn Demarest gave her
sermon to young people.
The evening was opened with
singing. How they can. sing.
those young people of Salem!
Much of the regular choir, and
the regular congregation, is made
up of older people. They sing
wonderfully, but they do not have
the spirit of the younger voices.
Last night made one think of the
singing soldiers who marched
with Sherman, with "John
Brown 'a Body" and "The Girl I
Left ,BehlndLMe.J,andrSjtar
SpaingledSanner' on theTr lips
and victory in their hearts and
freedom in their hands. Sher
man's army was almost as young
as the congregation that filled the
tabernacle last night,' and they
must have sung with the same
verve and dash and untlred voice
After the preliminary exercises,
which included a song by Mrs. De
marest. "Keep Your Eyes on
God," composed by her brother
William, or Willie as the people
of Salem have come to know him.
and a repetition of the "Devil
Song." which she gave at the
high school last Friday, Airs. De
marest set forth on her great ad
dress. She chose for text, Luke
7, 52: "And Jesus increased in
wisdom and statnre, and in favor
with God and man."; - ' . " ' '
"What a wonderful thing for
the son of the living God, to stay
there in the village where he-was
borii, until he was 30 years of age,
conscious of hi3 mission and
agonizing to be out and at his su
preme work, but staying quietly
there to make ox yokes, chairs,
tables, beds, for the people
around him, and supporting his
mother and her, children. But he
was ever young; ne never are
old. He left the earth in the
prime of his strength and in the
gladness of goodness and joy."
"It Is not years, but sin, mat
brings the look and the fact of
age' said the speaker. "Little
children in sin come to have the
hard!, sophisticated look, the bitter
eyes the sensual atmosphere of
wrongdoing. The ambition of
youth is to acquire age, with its
wisdom and its sophistication;
Jesus Christ taught all men to
prize most the spirit and the pur
ity of youth."
Purity, sincerity, strength and
joy were named as tbbest fruits
of youth. The speaker told of her
own family of 10 brothers and sis
ters, left at home while their
mother went out on her evangelis
tic tours. ; On her return the chil
dren would have a perfect riot
about who should see mother and
get the first kiss. They would
troop off down the street like 10
mad Indians to meet Mother. One
day Willie ' lagged" behind,' and
Victoria screamed: at hin to
"hurry! Willy, Jlurryi' .But
Willie dragged his heels oft the
pavement and his chin dragged al
most as low for he had disobeyed
mother's commands, and ho was
ashamed to look her in the face.
"The look of sin Is themarkof
wrong. Wnen we lose the, child
ish purity, it i something that
never come bacje." ' ' ' '
"One may lo$e the purity of
childhood, and never get - back,
but there Is a purity In forgive
ne?s that may be as wonderful
and as fine." ;

soldiers back"" In " fhe " dark ages

of Young Man As Son
Hugh, Called Into Question
By Others
MYSTERY STILL HANGS
OVER RIVER VICTIM
Search for Bodies of Twin
Brothers, Indicted Train
Bandits, in Progress
MEDFORD, Ore., May 6. The
mystery of the finding of the body
of an unidentified young man in
the Rogue river last Sunday was
increased today when Paul D'Au-
tremont of Eugene identified the
body as that of his son, Hugh, who
with his twin brothers, Ray and
Roy, have been indicted for the
robbery and blowing up of South
ern Pacific train No. 13 . in the
Siskiyou mountain tunnel last Oc
tober, when four of the train crew
were killed. -
" J. Boussom of Medford " also
identified the body , as that of a
young man he had seen fishing
near the Bybee bridge three weeks
ago last Sunday. T .Lm
J. W. Everst, a "speclaf1 agent of
the Santa Fe railroad here on of
ficial business identified the body
as that of a man known as Mc
Dowell, who had worked six weeks
in the railway shops of the Santa
Fe at San Bernardino, Cal.
Search of Rogue river near
Bybee bridge where the body was
found will be made for the bodies
of the twin brothers', on the sup
position that they have met the
same f ate. . The father says that
last Christmas, a tramp came to
Eugene and left this "cryptic mes
sage:
"Tell old man D'Autremont two
of his boys will be found under
the bridge with their hands tied,
and their bodied weighed' down.
the third boy was blown up in the
car." ...
Mr. D'Autremont says he did
not know what, bridge and disre
garded the tale entirely until he
read in the papers last night of
the. finding of the body in Rogue
river. V -
The parent since the day of the
holdup has steadfastly Insisted
that his sons were dead, and slain
by the real bandits, to cover up
their tracks and throw off suspi
cion.
Dan O'Connell, chief special
agent of the Southern Pacific will
arrive today to take charge of the
investigation. '

"I am not hard boiled bat I do

said yesterday. "Then men know
that if they violate their pledge

No Explanation of Muscle

DETROIT, Mich., may 6. In
a letter to Senator George W.
Norrls, chairman of the agricul
ture committee,- Henry Ford to
day refused to appear personally
before the committee in connec
tion with his Muscle Shoals offer.
The letter was mailed from Ford's
offices in Dearborn, Mich.
The letter was in reply to a re
quest from Senator Norrls that
the mtotr . manufacturer appear
personally, to explain - his offer.
Ford asserted that all of the facts
are already in the committee's
possession; that they have been in
quired into, and that there is no
necessity for further explanation
Mr. Ford's letter also says that
"the recent effort of Chairman
Norrls of the senate committee on
agriculture to reflect on the In
tegrity of the president of the
United States in connection with
our offer for Muscle Shoals,"
strengthened his decision not to
appear.

Mann was arrested through his
association with a Salem woman,
who knew nothing of his activities,
it is believed. The persons in
question were kept under survell

he would spend a day or two in

then disappear for a short time.
When arrested he had just come

It Is not known here whether he
extended his operations to other

(ByThe ssociated Press) Weath

Although a strong ; gale was
blowing at Atka island yesterday,
the crew of the coast guard cutter

On the basis of the latest re
