DlSQl'E'S RECOMMENDATION' Press dispatches indicate that Ex aminer Disque, of the interstate com merce commission, has recommended that the applications of carriers for lower rates from eastern points to the coast than to the intermediate points be not nllowed. Concerning this recommendation. Public Service Commissioner II. H Corey says: "All Interior points may well re joice at this victory. The progres sion of the theory of regulation of railroad and public utility rates by the regulatory bodies has been made manifest by recent decision. The in terstato commerce commission's de cision in the Columbia river basin grain rates case and the recommen dations of Examiner Disque in these fourth section applications demon strates clearly that right eventually wins. This has been a long, long battle for the right, it having been before the interstate commerce com mission repeatedly since the histori cal Spokane rate case more than a quarter of a century ago. "It is realized by all that prefer ential rates have been the most es sential element in determining the growth of cities and influencing man ufacturing activity throughout the I'nited States. "Coast terminal points have re peatedly joined with the carriers In adopting a policy that would be a vital influence in the growth and pre eminence of favored localities to the detriment of the growth and devel opment of interior points. All the natural factors favoring manufactur ing and jobbing are to be found in the interior. Haw material from the farm and from the mines are easily available. Power and fuel are at hand, and living is cheaper because of the prevalence of farms; and man ufacturing will now permit the rapid increase in population in the inter ior and cause further development of our farm lands. "On the human side, it is far more desirable to have a large number of relatively small factories and job bing houses scattered throughout the small cities and towns than to have this business forever centered in the coast cities." The Blue Bucket mine has been located again. This time it's on Wa gontire mountain, according to the Ontario Argus. WESTOX SAYS IXXOCEXT: VXKUKFLKD OX STAND (Continued from Page 1.) agreed. The stipulation contains the further declaration that the state does not admit that such testimony would be the truth. The greater part of the morning was taken up in reading from tran scripts of the preliminary hearing and of the first Weston trial. Wes ton's testimony was read from the trial transcript State's Attorney R. S. Hamilton, and after the state rested at 10:16 o'clock, George Still well's statements in the preliminary examination and the first trial were compared for impeachment purposes. Excludo Siirifr Testimony E. M. Harrington was recalled this morning by the state, and Immedi ately afterward, Sheriff 8. E. Rob erts was recalled to tell the sources of Information resulting In his in vestigations which led to the arrest of Weston. Continued objections to this line of testimony were made by the defense on the grounds that such evidence was hearsay. The state contended that Its purpose was to show that the Investigation was started before Joe Wilson was re leased from the Multnomah county jail, and that consequently the charge did not result from any plot on Wilson's part to "get" Weston, as had been intimated by the defense in its cross examination of Wilson yes terday. The court ruled following the morning Intermission in favor of the objection, Instructing the Jury to disregard all such testimony. Kuyx Killing Admitted Testifying that Weston had told him b would establish ielf defense, T. J. Sanders, bailiff and Jailer, was called as tha last witness yesterday afternoon. Sanders saw a new pri soner in the county jail on Septem ber 39, 1920, and asked him who he was. "My name is A. J. Weston, and I'm on the wrong side of the bars, but I'll show 'em I did It In self de fense," Weston answered, according to the witness. E. H. Sparks and W. T. Wilson agreed that Weston had visited his ranch, leased by Wilson, ten days be fore the tragedy, getting his gun and dog. and telling them that Krug was "nosing around" the moonshlu ing plant at the sawmill, and that he intended to keep him away and con tinue to make whiskey if he served a life sentence for It. Wilson admitted when cross exam ined that ho had nt one time brought action against Weston to replevin hay.. He did not know whether or not the Btiit had ever been dismissed. Joe Wilson, brought in his wheeled chair to testify yesterday had known Krug for 25 years, he stated on the stand Wednesday afternoon. He had last seen Krug. before the fire, when he had, sometime during that win ter, helped Krug to get n horse out of the ice on the slough near the mill. Wilson Is a patient at the Mountain View hospital. ' Iiloutif Koinuiiis On March 25, he visited the burned cabin, end recognized the charred remains as those of Krug, by the shape of the shoulders, and by a piece of a sweater had hud known Krug to wear. ' In the fall of 191S. Weston came to the Wilson mill to help Wilson get in logs; but during the winter they had. with little success, tried to make moonshine. Wilson got Stillwell to come out on March 15. He left sometime In April. Wilson was in Bend on the night of March 24. he stated. He returned the next day, and attended the in quest. Walking home to the mill af ter it. Weston said to him. he testi fied, '.'Mum's the word." To which Wilson replied, "It's all off with us at the mill." "It had to be done," Weston con tinued, and Wilson replied, "Don't tell me nothing. I don't want to know nothing." While he gave this testimony, Wil son talked gaspingly, and had to stop several times on account of his feeble condition. "Whenever Jack Weston tries any thing, he generally always gets by," Wilson quoted the defendant as say ing, relative to getting caught. "He said if I told it. if he didn't get killed, I would." Wilson added. Itrvenfrr Motive Denied Wilson's logging operations were conducted on hind that Krug had once homesteaded, but v.hlch a man natiK-d Scott had secured on a con test, said Wilson. Krug had owned the p;:rt of it on which the mill stood. for a year, and had once asked him why he did not move the mill, hut there had been no quarrel, said Wil son. Wilson left when his mill was burned in the fall of 1919, he said. Over the objection of the state, Wilson was required to tell of being convicted of moonshlning, and serv-j illET n r:tHfo in tho 1ilfiiiii.ink county jail. Defense asked as to whether he had made a statement to one s. M. Bailey In Prinevllle after his release, declaring that Weston was respon sible, (referring to his Imprison ment.) continuing "I'll get even with i him I'll get him one way or an other." "You bet I didn't." was Wilson's reply, emphatic in spite of his con dition. .MrthotLs Criticized Wilson had told Charles Gist, de puty sheriff, that Weston was the man who killed Krug and burned him up, buforo he went to Jail, he uld. There were many things Wilson did not tell at tho first trial, that Weston had told him, he said. Wilson's only remarks, on being told of the murder, were, "I suppose he did some begging," and "I think you mado a mlstnko in putting him on the bed. Why didn't you put him on tho floor, near tho wall, so It would look like it was an accident?" he admitted, but explained that he said those things only to make WVs ton think he was still his friend. LEGION PLANNING MODERN RADIO SET MiiKiuivox, Making; roNKlhlo HearliiK of CoiiocrlH l!y All In limit, Mt'l.clltiiul'H Plan. Because of the ever Increasing In terest being taken in radio telephony and telegraphy, J. II. McLelluud, ap pointed last night chairman of the radio committee of Percy A. Stevens Post, American Legion, believes that the post can profitably Install a mod ern set. Including a magiiavox, nt the Legion building. Such a set as Is contemplated would make It possible, according to McLelland, for everyono In Hi'itil to go to the Legion building on surh evenings as they could, uud hear the concerts which are being sent out from various points in the western states. In fact, with the use of the magiia vox. It would only bo necessary for those who wished to listen, to step out onto their lawns, for It has been demonstrated that by the use of u three step amplification in connect ion wilh the magnnvox, concerts may be heard at a distance of a mllo from the receiving station, McLelland states.
