BILL'S ADVANCE
BRINGSPROTEST
DR. OWENS-ADAIR IS
AGAINST CHANGE
Art For Kxamlnullon llcfore Mr
rluge Referred To IVople At (Jen
itI Klr Hon Time Kor Edu
cative Work Cut Short.
Ilecent announcemonta thut legla
lutlon to be voted on at a special
Juno election will Include senate bill
No. 174, which provides for the ex
amination of ull applicants for mar-
rliiKO license, bus brought a deter
mined protest from Dr. Owens-Adalr,
uuthor of tho mousure, who Is mak
ing her lieudquarturs in Item). The
fuct that the bill specifically pro
vides for a referendum vote at the
next generul election Is the bails for
Dr. Adair's objection to the action of
the attorney general In placing the
measure on the Juno ballot.
Tho provision in question Is em
bodied In section 4 of tho bill, which
says, In part: "This act shall be re
ferred (o the legal voters of the state,
of Oregon at the next general elec
tion, and the secretary of state Is
hereby directed to place this same
upon the ballot to bo ued at such
election."
Aotliorily QunMloiM!.
"My what authority does the at
torney general turn this measure over
to tho spcclul election?" Dr. Adair
asks In a latter written to a Portland
morning paper. In which she also
mentions that she wrote the attorney
general, begging him not to chunge
the time of tho marrlugo bill. She
received no reply from the state offl
clul, however, she says. Dr. Adair
realizes thut her bill Is much In ad
vance of tho times, and thut a con
siderable period iniiHt be had for edu-
cativo work. Dy placing the meas
ure before tho people only a few
mouths afler Uh paxHage in the legis
lature, its chances for success have
been HerloiiHly Jeopard Ized, she soys.
Hiiy 1 S In It Control Iksuc.
Dr. Aduir objects pointedly to sen
ate bill No. 171 being alluded to as
tho HtcrlllznUon bill. "There Is no,
Hterlllzntion bill before the people of
Oregon," she emphasizes. "My
Hterlllzution bill thut was before the
people from 1907 to 1917, became a
law In May, 1917. My present bill
is a marriage bill, requiring every
man and woman to puss a test for
health and mentality. If one or
both fail to pass the mental test, then
one or both uumt bo rendered sterile
beforo they can be married."
Statistics pointing to a gradual
drift toward degeneracy, and figures
Hhowing that six out of every 10 per
sons nre sub-normal mentally, are be
ing forcofully used by Dr. Adair in
her campaign. "The greatest ques
tion that faces our nation today Is the
birth control of our degenerates," she
declares.

NATION'S INTEREST IS
DRAWN BY CASE
SELF-DEFENSE PLEA
Accidental Injury Statement Attempt
To Shield Secretary Son of Jake
Humon Attends Trial, Watrhoa
Defendant Throughout Day.
(Br United Pre to The Bend Bulletin;
ARDMORE. Okla., March 10. .
Clara Smith Hamon's trial for the
murder of the man she loved opened
here today. The girl twitched nerv
ously as Judge Champion called the
court to order and announced that
her trial for the murder ot Jaka L.
Hamon was under way. Both de
fense and prosecution announced they
were ready. W. R. Coole, Jury
bailiff, at once pulled out the name
ot 12 of the 157 veniremen and they
took their places in the Jury boi.
Formal legal Information merely
charged that "Clara Smith" mur
dered Jake L. Hamon by Inflicting a
wound with a small-caliber pistol
that caused his death. But oat from
the case a drama ot "the other
woman of the eternal triangle," faced
with a parting of the ways; of mighty
politics, railroad budding and Indus
trial pioneering, vast oil fields and
fortunes, all conceived by a one-time
penniless adventurer stand allega
tions that have gripped the Interest
of a nation.
Marriage Denied.
Clara Smith Hamon, known pub
licly as secretary tor Hamon. and di
vorced wife ot his nephew. Is alleged
to have fatally wounded the multi
millionaire and republican national
committeeman from Oklahoma dur
ing a quarrel at an Ardmore hotel
after the two were reported to have
decided to part because of a recon
ciliation between Hamon and his
wife. ' Hamon had reached the zen
ith of his power politically and had
made a name almost unequaled in
this history of development of the
new southwest. Charges that Hamon
at the beginning of the alleged ro
mance paid his nephew to marry the
girl so she might carry the name ot
Hamon were denied by the nephew.
The alleged shooting occurred the
evening of November 21 Sunday.
Hamon walked into the lobby ot the
hotel and announced that he had ac
cidentally shot himself while cleaning
a pistol he had intended to take with
him on a hunting trip to west Tezaa
and Montana. He walked unaided
to Hardy sanitarium and afterward
Frank Ketch, his business manager
and chief lieutenant. Issued a formal
statement saying the wound was ac
cidentally self-inflicted.
Son of Victim in Court.
Late the next day. Russell Brown,
county attorney of Carter county, is
sued a warrant charging Clura Smith
Hamon with assault with intent to
kill Hamon and the woman fled. She
was traced to Chihuahua City, Old
Mexico.
From there she conducted negotia
tions with relatives, who, on the ad
vice of attorneys, arranged for her
surrender. She surrendered to Sher
iff Buck Garrett of Carter county,
Oklahoma, a few days before Christ
mas. She was released on bail.
Her attorneys announced soon af
ter she returned that she would plead
self-defense.
Jake L. Hamon, Jr., came to the
triul of the girl who killed his fath
er. He stood against the wall
throughout the morning and his eyes
never turned from the defendant.
Jake junior is 20 years old.
