leard ion the Willamette campus.
Opinion is current' ori the campus
that the Bearcats have no busl-
Tie. submitting to the attacks of
inbools that are way out of their

IS SAID TO HAVE ERRED
FOR5IKR GERMAN PILOT SAYS
CRASH WAS AVOIDABLE
Two Members of Crew, Dec-fare
Statements Made by Heinen
Are False
LAKEH URST, N; jj, Oct. 1. -
( By Associated Press ) .Captain
Auton Heinen,' former German
Zeppelin. plhJt, gave to the naval
court of inquiry here! today 'the
names of the men upon whose
statements he said he had based
his charges that those at j the
Lakehurst air station f knew why
the Shenandoah collapsed and
that the change in) the gas valve
system in the airship j had been
fought all along. They .were Ben
jamin C. Herefh, a machinist's
mate, and' James I Worth, chief!
draftsman at the air station.
Hereth Jater denied on the stand
that he had given Captain Heinen
any reasons ' why the collapse oc
curred. Worth will be; called later
for questioning' as to whether he
did say that' those at the air sta
tion had fought the reduction in
the number of the; automatic! gas
valves on the ship. ! ! !
With respect' to j his statement
that the crew of the ship were
apprehensive about the midwest
ern flight because! of: her condi
tion. Captain Heinen conceded
that it was hased on an account
given to him by his secretary of a
conversation the latter; had? had
with a man named Buckley, a
former member of thQ Shenan
doah's personnel. .j I 7
Before the court insisted oh a
disclosure of the ; names of the
men referred to in his testimony
yesterday, Captain Heinen ' had
stoutly i maintained through all
the tire of cross examination that
tliose in charge of the Shenan
doah should have been warned by
danger signals present in the air
in ample time to have 1 saved the
ship. - ' -f V, ; . I . j I " i
Frankly conceding i that while
piloting German dirigibles, he had
ot into ascending air currents
through errors of judgment, the
witness maintained that in the
case of the Shenandoah there
Rhould have been ; no such error
since the signs: were plainly avail
able to be read.?; ill
Asked if there were i an v pilots
in this country who ! could have
steered the Shenandoah; out of the
storm. Captain Heinen said there
were many, including Commander
7achary Lansdowne himself. Add
ing then that his opinion of Cap
tain Lansdowne as an airship
pilot was and is of the highest.
the witness Baid the j dead com
mander iof the ship simply made a

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED FOR

Want Fair to Include Either La
bor Day or Sunday; Passes
Are Popular
Resolutions looking toward the
betterment of the livestock exhib
its and .the state fair were passed
at the annual meeting ot the Ore
gon Purebred Livestock associa
tion last night. .
A legislative appropriation for
the payment of premiums gradu
ally increased beginning with not
less than $100,000 for the coming
biennium Is urged. Repairs to
present barns and the suitable
housing of livestock and exhibit
ors are wanted. Another resolu
tion holds that the need of the
department is a new modern exhi
bition barn such as & now enjoyed
by other large fairs. The appro
priation of $100,000 to erect the
first unit is urged.
In order to Berve the best inter
ests of livestock breeds it is sug
gested that a day be set aside for
the judging of each breed.
We recommend to the state
fair board the wisdom of consider
ing the advisability of holding the
Oregon state fair through such a
period of time as will embrace
either Labor Day or Sunday,"
reads another resolution, "if it
is considered advisable to hold the
fair during Labor Day we then
suggest that the fair begin on Sat
urday with a racing program to
be composed of running events
cnly. coupled with track exhibition
before the grand stand of the boys'
and girls' club animals. For Sun
day -we recommend the holding in
the stadium of a sacred concert

United States Suggests Ten
tative Arrangement in Lieu
of Settlement
FRENCH MINISTRY SAILS
Annuity of Forty Mil ion Dollars
a Year to Be Paid by French
Until Final Agreement
.Is Made
WASHINGTON. Oct, 1. (By
Associated Press.) The frail for-t
mula of a tentative arrangement,
which must be ratified by the
French government, today was
thrust into the breach to prevent
complete collapse of the French
American debt funding negotia
tions. '
Thus, one week; after : Finance
Minister Callaux and his associ
ates had laid do wo the first
French proposal for funding their
government's S4, 000,000,000 war
debt, they departed for Paris, tak
ing with them a ; document in
tended only to fill the 'gap suffi
ciently to assure continuity ot
negotiations -even at long range.
The arrangement, proposed by
the American debt commission as
final move to overcome - what
appears to be insurmountable dif
ficulties, would have France pay
an annuity of $40,000,000 a year
for five years and would enable
the two governments to continue
consideration of a program of fi
nal settlement to succeed the pro
posed temporary pact at its ex
piration. Further,: it concedes
that the annuity thus j paid shall
be in lieu of all interest on the
debt during the time it Shall run
or an interest charge of ap
proximately one per cent a year.
M. Cailaux gave American
commissioners the: hope; that he
believed the French government
would accept the agreement. He
declined to sign it as plenipoten
tlary inasmuch as he had been in
trusted by his government, he
said, to sign only a final settle
ment and he questioned his own
right to act on an arrangement
of a provisional character.
"ConBquently, being as desir
ous as you not to! interrupt the
negotiations which can not fail to
reach; an agreement,"! M. ; Cal
laux's last statement to the Amer
ican said,; "the' minister of finance
can do no more than submit to
his colleagues of the French cab
inet in Paris " the propositions
which) you have made today and
he will do his utmost to give an
answer as soon as possible
It was after making that state
ment, that M. Callaux and his: as
sociates marched in single file
fromfthe meeting and the end f
the conversations between the
two Commissions had come.- j M
Callaux was unhappy that a per
manent arrangement was hot
reached. . Secretary MeUon. too,
was disappointed, but he, never
theless, regarded the results as a
step forward and he felt that
better understanding between the
two hations had been developed.
But overservers and even mem
bers pf the American commission,
held varied opinions as to the
tangible results of the seen day
conference. Disappoinment and
dissatisfaction predominated In
some Quarters, that the Americans
bad ibeen unable to do more: in
others the preailing sentiment
was hat France can do better in
the way of terms five years hence
thaniher representatives felt able
to do at the present time. Among
all -i jot those directly concerned
witljf the negotiations, however,
mere was a noticeable sense 0
relief at their conclusion.
