Flames Start '
SEATTLE, Oct. 17 (AP)
The blaze which swept through
the Portland hotel, in the oldest
section of this city this morning.
Burning eight men to death and
causing Injury to 14 other per
sons, was definitely established
-tonight as the work of a j firebug.
Fire Marshal Robert Lalng de
clared he believed the fire, one
of-the worst In the history of the
city, was started by the same py
romaniac who set off a number of
other suspicious fires below Tes
ter way during the past few
months.
.After a thorough investigation
it was disclosed that one witness
had seen a man rush out of the
lodging house carrying a bottle
and a few' minutes after this in
cident several witnesses saw , a
wall of flame shoot out of the
narrow hotel entrance, which
leads directly to the second floor,
llkto a furnace door had been
opened and with the suddenness
of an explosion.
The fiend had soaked both
flights of stairs in the three story
"building with gasoline and kero
sene, trapping the score of peo
ple asleep in the-hollding, fire
men declared.
As the hotel was operated for
Itinerant white laborers by Japan
ese and as some of the victims
.were burned beyond recognition,
difficulty was encountered in
identifying the victims. ' After
study of the charred hotel regis
ter and discovery of personal iden
tifications, the coroner has given
out a list of seven of the dead, as
follows:
John Brink, Lynden, Wash.
Harold George, Seattle.
Patrick Holland, Seattle.
James Little, Seattle.
John Maniick, Seattle.
' Thomas O'Mealey, Seattle.
Carl Van Oman, 19, Battle
Creek, Mich.
Four so severely burned that
hospital attendants doubted their
recovery were:
Robert Elms, 19, logger, Gigg
Harbor, Wash.
Henry Marsh, CO, laborer.
John Miller, 59, rail worker.
Chester A. Moore, 22, ship,
yard worker.
In addition .to six other men
tenants, the managers of the ho
tel, Mr. and Mrs. Mayeda, and
twd firemen were less seriously
injured.
The stairway served as a flue
vending the fire raging through
the hotel. Firemen had to kick in
locked doors to reach many of
the tenants.
A eoroner's inquest will be held
fts soon as the victims are able to
testify.
MOSCOW, Oct. 17. (AP)
The Soviet government today de
clined a proposal put forward by
Germany, the latter acting as rep
resentative of both Russia and
China' In the present break be
tween those countries, .that the
two parties to the Manchurlan dis
pute cease arresting each other's
cltisens. The proposal was made
With the Idea of removing one of
the many causes of the charges
end counter-charges, that have
been exchanging ever since the
Chinese seized the Chinese East
ern railway.
Russia based her refusal of the
German proposal on the ground
that the Nanking government has
failed to keep its pledges and ob
ligations and thus far has declined
to show any good will of readiness
to adhere to existing agreements.

Involuntary petition in bank
ruptcy was filed against Yick
Brothers, Salem automobile deal
ers, in the federal court at Port
land Thursday by Ballon and
Wrght of Portland, the Pennsyl
vania Rubber company of Jean
ette. Pa., and the Associated Oil
company, San Francisco. Claims
totaling $1514.46 were listed In
the petition.
The Vlck Brothers establish
ment, one of the largest automo
tive concerns in Salem, has been
operated since August 30 by Fred
Delano, as assignee under an as
signment for the benefit of cred
itors. It has been known hew for sev
eral days that the bankruptcy
proceeding would probably be fil
ed, and it is also common knowl
edge that a number of the cred
itors are opposed to the move, be
lieving that their chances of re
covering a large share, if not
quite 100 per cent, of their claims
within a reasonable time are bet
ter under the assignment than
they would be in a bankruptcy
proceeding.
It appeared practically certain
Thursday that this group of cred
itors would - make a showing at
the hearing on the petition in the
Portland court November 6, in op
position to the bankruptcy move,
although no definite announce
ment to this effect could be ob
tained. - The 1ck Brothers company has
been operated in Salem for about
20 years. Difficulty in making
collections and high overhead
costs were said to be the reasons
for its financial difficulties.

"good taste and public decency."
Publication of the editorial fol

NEW YORK, Oct. 17 (AP)
Operating all the way down the
Atlantic seaboard from Maine to
the Virginia Capes, the gigantic
rum smuggling syndicate whose
extensive properties here and in
New Jersey were raided last night
did a $2,000,000 business in six
months, federal officials revealed
today.
To the office of William J. Cal
houn, New Jersey prohibition ad
ministrator, in Newark, was tak
en today a little black notebook
picked up last night in the man
sion at Highlands, N. J which
was visited simultaneously with
31 other of the syndicate's centers
scattered all the way from Sandy
Hook to New York City.
In that notebook, government
men said were set down the syn
dicate's transactions, Indicating a
12,000,000 turnover In a period
of six months.
$700,000 Spent in
Month for Expenses
Quoting from the notebook, of
ficials said the ring last March
spent 1700,000 In Montreal "for
hips, the purchase of merchan
dise, and operating expenses,"
during another month, the syn
dicate spent in Montreal $200,
000, and during a third month
$7fi,eoo.
The book revealed that beads of
the syndicate declared weekly dl?
vldends of from 7 to 23 per cent.
Nine men comprised the "board
of directors" of the syndicate, and
the Lillien brothers, William and
"Al" were the actual heads.
Neither of the Lilliens has been
arrested, although both were se
cretly Indicted by a federal grand
Jury in Trenton last Tuesday.
While the raid was actually in
progress in the old mansion at
Highlands, which was headquar
ters for. the whole ring, William
Lillien called up from Montreal,
agents said. Deputy U. S. Mar
shal James J. Donnelly answered
the telephone.

Progress of Garage
Donnelly said Lillien Inquired
about the progress of a garage
that was "being constructed near

CLAIMS OF PIPER
Construction of Local Build
ing Held Not Contrary
To Salem Code
Charges appearing In a local
newspaper that the building code
was being evaded in connection
with construction of the Steeves
building en Court street, are con
tradicted in an opinion obtained
from the Pacific Coast Building
Officials conference by City At
torney Fred A. Williams at' the
request of Earl C. Bushnell, lo
cal building Inspector.
The claims published dealt
principally with failure 1o con
struct a masonry division wall be
tween this building, which will be
occupied by the Hallk electric
company, and the one adjoining
which is already occupied by that
company.
The opinion returned by the
building officials conference
states:
"It is the custom of building
departments generally to regard
long term leases as ownership of
the property in question. A
building erected on property lo
cated as this Is should be consid
ered as a single building if this is
the desire of the lessees, and
should be designed and erected in
all Its parts in conformity to the
uniform building code.
"Leases seem to show single
occupancy for both properties. If
combining building not over area
for group F buildings suggest
considering both properties single
ownership."
The building Inspector has not
yet ruled as to whether the struc
tures to be Joined fulfill tbe re
quirements of the code, but the
issue raised as to the division wall
appear to be answered fully in this
opinion.

Eunice Pringle Not Attacked
Says Dr. Peter Suden in
Pantages Trial
Defense Continues Effort to
Indicate Blackmail is
Dancer's Plan
LOS ANGELES, Oct 17.
(AP) The defense rocked ' the
trial of Alexander Pantages on a
statutory charge late today with
the curt testimony of a doctor
that an examination he made at
the request of the state produced
no evidence of a criminal attack
on the theatre man's alleged vic
tim, youthful Eunice Pringle.
The physician. Dr. Peter Su
den, was brought. into the sensa
tional proceedings while a storm
was raging over the testimony of
Leo Zlaket, a grocery man.
Dr. Suden said that on August
12 he waB Instructed by District
Attorney Buron Fltts to examine
Miss Pringle. That was four days
after the alleged attack. He said
he found no indications of an at
tack. Physician Insists Pitts
Asked for Examination
The state asked but one ques
tion in cross examination: "Was
the examination made at my re
quest?" Fitts inquired. "It was,"
the doctor replied quietly.
Tbe defense followed with a
motton to place the grand Jury
transcript of Zlaket in evidence.
A 20-minute debate followed end
ing with the state's voluntary dis
missal of its objection and the
document was introduced. .
Zlaket. who had testified to a
conference with Pantages before
the trial, said today that he saw
Nicholas Dunear, a playwright,
"many times" at Miss Pringle's
home in Garden Grove, a Los
Angeles suburb. The defense has
tried- to establish that Dunear
and the girl planned to blackmail
Pantages.
Subsequent Talks With
Pantages Are Admitted
When the witness was asked
how be knew lt was Duneav vis
iting at the Pringle home, he
said: "Well, I had my own opn

saying: "Mr. Pantages told
me lt was Dtfheav," admitting he
had talked with Pantages at the
theatre man's home sometime aft
er the alleged attack.

OPEN HOUSE EVENT
HELD H51S
200 Attend Social Meet in
Fraternal Hall Here
Thursday Night
About 200 persons. United Arti
sans and other fraternal orders
which meet in Fraternal hall on
Center street, attended the "open
house" for which the Artisans
were hosts Thursday night.
Two high officials of the Arti
san order from Portland were
present and addressed the meet
ing. One was Jerry Baylor, su
preme secretary of the Artisans of
Oregon, who outlined the plan for
the state wide competitive drill
for all fraternal drill teams to be
held Sunday, November S, in the
stadium of the Pacific Interna
tional fairgrounds. Seme very
fine cups are to be awarded win
ners by the Pacific International
fair board.
Mr. Saylor, between jokes,
spoke emphatically concerning the
membership campaign which is
being carried on in a competitive
manner between California, Ore
gon, and Washington, which will
close with January 1.
H. S. Hudson, supreme master
srtisan of Oregon, addressed the
fraternal group on the value of
fraternal Insurance and f rater n
alism. Mr. Hudson prefaced his talk
by reminding his audience that
the Artisan lodge was originated
in Oregon 35 years ago and that
its anniversary was being cele
brated this year with a member
ship drive over a large territory
which Indicated the rapid spread
of the order.
Among many other things Mr.
Hudson emphasized the value,
first of life Insurance, which he
said was "the greatest safe-guard
of the American people," and sec
ond, the value of fraternalism.
Said he, "Do not discount the
value of fraternalism. Go down
to the Shriners hospital for crip
pled children, to the Artisan
home, to the Maccabees or the Odd
Fellows home or any of the rest
of like institutions and look
around you at the folk there be
ing cared for. Ask them about
the value of fraternalism."
DEFEAT OF TARIFF
By JAMES L. WEST
Associated Press Staff Writer
WASHINGTON. Oct, 17 (AP)
Unless congress completed ac
tion on the tariff bill at this spe
cial session, lt is quite unlikely
that President Hoover will ask for
such legislation at the regular ses
sion beginning in December.
With the senate and house al
ready in ' deadlock on vital pro
visions, enactment of the bill be
fore the special session of congress
expires automatically at noon on
December 2 is regarded here as
practically impossible.
It Is no secret that President
Hoover Is Indifferent about, the
measure as the senate is shaping
lt and few leaders either of the
senate or house expect him to
sign any bill shearing the chief
executive of the authority to In.
crease or decrease tariff duties as
the senate measure would do. .

County School Superinten
dent's Office Without

Boys' and Girls' Organiza
tions Will Receive No
More Support
After carrying the burden of
boys' and gtrla club work in Mar
lon county for nearly 12 yars. the
county school superintendent's of
fice will end its work In this dl-j
rection on November 1, the end
of the club year. Announcement
to this effect was made Thursday
afternoon by Mrs. Mary L. Fulker-
son, county school superintendent,
after efforts had been made to se
cure some financial assistance
from the 4-H club division of tho
extension service at Oregon State
college.
In all the year that club work
has been carried on in Marion
county through the county school
superintendent's office, the fuws
for it have been furnished by Mar
ion county, with the exception of
from April. 1926, to the end nt
that year when the extension serv
ice paid a part of the expenses.
In this time, the county carried
the burden without complaint.
But when .new requirements of
the service, last spring, necessi
tated additional clerical work in
the headquarters office here, Mrs.
Fulkerson determined to ask for
federal aid for a part time clerical
assistant and for some considera
tion toward traveling expenses, a
total amount of about (500 a year.
The request was flatly refused.
Regret Expressed
At Necessary Step
"I am sorry to make the an
nouncement that the club work
will no longer be handled threucn
this office," Mrs. Fulkerson said
Thursday, "but the county has
been carrying the load all these
years without complaint, eithrt
about the funds expended or the
time the club work has takes
from the regular school work at
this office."
The superintendent said, with
the need for more clerical heln
arising, she did not feel that she
should ask an increase is the
budget for her office, and that tbe
only way to carry on waa through
financial cooperation of the exten
sion division. When this failed,
the only course open was to suit.
Which means that after November
1, club work will be handled di
rect from the state headquarters
in Corvallis.
