D., where he will srxak Thursday, Seeretarj Hurley thus will not be forced to ' vote against his mnvlctiona when the bonus question comes on the conten tion floor Wednesday or Thursday. Frank and outspoken oppouent of such rsynrtrt, he nevertheless waa aeated ft delegate in the Oklahoma depar'Uhe, representation and had dCA'lareo that since Oklahoma la In structed to vote in favor of Immedi ate rash payment, he would abide by tha expressed attitude of legion vjairaa of that state and would vote as 1fcey had dictated. Would Deter Bonus While the gorgeous assembly ef marching units, bands and drum corps turned Portland streets into canyons running with great streams vivid with all colore and gleaming with much ehining metal; while thousands pack ed themselves into Portland's stadium, and other thousands lined the streets for a view of the greatest spectacle the city ever saw, there was in sev eral quartera activity of another nat ure as those "steering" the conven tion spoke of unanimity and com promlae. Overwhelmingly In favor of immed iate cash payment of the bonus, the legion membership nerertbelesa will be asked that action on thia matter be deferred. There was no doubt as to the report the sub-committee would bring in, Its membership Including five men definitely pledged to immedl t ate psyment, and four men openly opposed to such payment. This five to four report advocating Immediate payment will be made to the general legislative committee tomorrow. May Compromise Robert W. Reed of Kanaaa City, member of the sub-committee, de clared today that there la aom hope of a compromise on tha question and the Missouri delegation ia working diligently for their proposal to defer action on the bonus matter until the next convention. Nebraska, likewise, la strenuously attempting to enlist aid In opposition to bonus payment, and for their can didate for national commander, 8am Reynolds, staunch opponent of such payment. J F. McDermott, com mander of tho Omaha poet, aald today that la reply to his telegram of yes terday asking presidential candidates for their position oa bonua payment, Norman Thomas, socialist candidate, replied be waa opposed to general payment at this time. Hurley, Gibbons Clash Hurley dashed with Floyd Gibbons, war correspondent and author, during a dinner given by Henry It Stevens, JrH national commander of the legion, last sight. Gibbons criticised the methods used by tha administration in ejecting the a E. F. from their billeta in Wash ington, D. C. Ho accuiej the army of having started the fires and said tha bonus seekers had been orderly when tho troops ware called In. Hurley said he bad not intended to talk on the subject, but that he felt he should reply to Gibbons' chsrges. He insisted the fires were started by the bonus army itself and aaid the use of regular troopa waa necessitat ed by diaordera too aerious for civil authorities to cope with. "I have never failed to take it on the cbln when I had anything com ing," Hurley aaid, "If you have any thing to ssy to me, say itl 1 never thought the government waa in dan ger. I have always believed the people of this nation beve a peaceable way for aettlement of their disputes snd that they will use those peaceful methods. But when there are riots, peace must be restored." He reviewed the orders issued by the war department under direct In structions from the president. "Now, can ynu find any fault with Ihose orders?" he queried. "Are they unjustly bsrsh? I ordered out the armed forces of the government to protect the marchers ss well as others." "Ther were men among that group In Washington who came In an orderly way to state their case, for whom 1 would lay down by life to protect. There were wonderfully fine men amnng them. Hut there were other mn there, loo. All were not angels. And I wsnt to tell jou that this Is a government of a majority, snd not a gorernmet of a raioorliy."

For two hours a aeemintly endless stream of ex-servicemen, members of the 40 and f fun and service group, in a rainbow of colors, marching with apparently an inexhaustible variety of drum corps and bands, entertained Ihqusamls of residents and visitors who lined the downtown streets.

The $21,500 sewer bunds were or dered sold to the Virst National bank of Kugene and the United (States Na tioual bank of Kuifene, whose com bined bid was at par value, 5 per cent Interest. This, according to the councilmen, Is an unusually attrac tive bid in view of the present bond market conditions. A. delegation from the Woodmen of the World lodge waa present to pro test a rulinf .by the city engineer which the jroup claimed will hold up construction of the new Woodman hall at Eighth and Lincoln. The ob jection waa voted overruled by the council in order that the work can proceed. "Mala Event" Warm An ordinance to prohibit the rais ing of bees in the cifcy waa given tbe first reading. Other minor biils were taken up. Tbe "main event" of the evening was the anti-vegetable dumping or dinance, however. The city council committee reported thut it favored tabling the bill. This was taken as a signal for action and Fred Chambers, president of the agricultural division of the chamber of commerce stood up and spoke in favor of the ordin-. ance, urging Its immediate adoption as a relief measure for the farmers of the vicinity. He was followed by Ray Ityan, of tbe Pacific Fruit and Produce com pany, who quoted from an editorial published in Kalph and Stanley's ad- ' vertiement in the Kegister-Uuard Monday which said the ordinance was designed to give the produce company a monopoly. Ryan denied this impli cation and told what was beina; done to stop trucking of produce, in other states. j Swafford Challenges ! "Attorney Swafford Is here tonight ! to oppose the ordinance," Ryan said. 1 "I am aura we have n.aile a much : deeper study of this condition thau ' Mr. Swafford could possible have ; made." j The attorney appeared perturbed at this, tossing down his hat in annoy ance. E. G. Harlan, secretary of the chamber of commerce, was next to ' speak. He urged the adoption of the ; ordinance as a pledge of faith on the part of Eugene towards tbe farmers of the state. He spoke of the damage b ing done the growers of the district by truckers who haul in produce rais ed by Japanese and Mexican labor in other states. Attorney Swafford interrupted the socretary'a remarks aud challenged Harlan's statements concerning the shipment of vegetables going out of Lane county and Mayor EUsha Large rapped for order. Eugene's "Tammany" The attorney, who represents the trucking interests opposed to tbe or dl-ance, took the fluor following liar Jan's talk. He disclaimed any animo sity towards the chamber of com merce, saying he enjoys the distiuc tion of being the only member out of not on aome committee. He stated, however, that a feeling exists in certain quarters that the chamber is an "exalted Tammany hall." "The chamber of commerce ia sug gesting that our grocerymen caouot handle their own business,'' he said. "Why doesn't the chamber start a school for grocerymen ?" This brought a burst of applause from the anti-ordinance rooting sec tion. Swafford then attacked the "tfteam roller tactics" of the cham ber, t Consumers Pretest F. G. Reese, 000 Orchard street, spoke aa an ex-farmer and appealed to the city council not to pass tbe or dinance. He said it would raise the price of commodities aad tax an already overburdened group of un employed people. J. S. Bond, 19S0 Villa rd, spoke as a consumer and also made an appeal for a vote against the measure. Mrsi Sarah Hoffman, a housewife. drew the biggest applause of the eve mng when she appeared on behalf of Eugene housewives who, she said, have trouble enough balancing the family budget without having the price of fruit and vegetables raised. The federati n of women's clubs was also represented and took a stand against the measure. After both aides had spolVi, the councilmen again took np the com mittee's suggestion that tbe ordinance be tabled, and voted to lay the mat ter over. Bee Ban Up The minor business of the council included the first reading of an anti bee ordinance. This ordinance, ori PROPERLY FITTED Glasses keep your eyes looking young.

Application for & light in the alley between Twelfth ..nd Thirteenth ave nues and l'.itterson and Ferry was approved.
