Wage Demand Issue
Washington, Mar. 2. Representa

It Is understood also that they de
cided to hold i abeyance plans to

President Sets Stage
Washington,- Mar. 2. President

bunal provided in the railroad bill
for considering the wage demands ot
the two million railroad employes.
It was announced at the white

atives and the roads six. From each
of these groups, the president will
select three and in addition he will
name three representatives of the
public. The board of nine as thus con
stuted will be subject to senatu ap
proval. Decisions of the board will be by
majority vote, provided one of the
majority is of the public group. The
law does r,ot make acceptance of the

Both declared service men were not

the crew of the Leyland liner Bohe
mian abandoned their ship as she
was breaking up on the Sambro ledg

injured.
The ship, which wag bound from
Boston to Liverpool, ran aground in
a blinding snowstorm while endeavor

this morning It was decided to aban
don her. Three boats got away safely
but the remainder of the men were
unable to take to the boats, accord
ing to the reports received here.
The tug Roebllng came as close to
the steamer as possible and the trans

Neiv Apartments
To Rise On South
Commercial Street
Plans for a beautiful new apart
ment house, to be called the "High
land Court Apartments" are being
drawn up by Chester G. Murphy of
Portland, and the prospects are that
it will be erected in the near future.
The site chosen is on South Commer
cial street, Just south of Bellevue,
Among the attractive features plan
ned for the new building are sun
parlors, sleeping porches, a 70 foot
court ln the rear with a lawn and
fountain; bachelor apartments pro
vided with a club room, and a gar
o tirith nccnmmodatloris for 20 au
tomobiles. The structure will be of,New jer9ey; Senator Robert L. Owen

Mr Murphy, who has made a study
of apartment ho'uses for the past sev

number In Portland, says that every
individual featurf of the "Highland
Court" will be the very latest, and the
entire building will be one or

"An overwhelming majority of ex
service meen feel strongly that this
government owes an obligation to all
persons who were handicapped either
bodily or financially," the national
commander declared, adding that dis
abled men wanted relief legislation "to
the end that they would no longer be
objects of private charity."
Recommends Legislation.
Recommendations for legislation
were presented as follows:
"Land settlements covering farms in
all states; aid to encourage purchase
of homes; vocational training and ad
justment of compensation based on
length of service for those not desir
ing to avail themselves of the other
three features.
"The American Legion," Mr. D'Olier
said, "asks nothing in Its selfish In
terests at the expense of the country,
but at the same time does not feel that
this obligation to ex-service men and
women should be altogether passed by
at this time and all economizing done
at the expense of the ex-service men."

Cleaning up a volume of business at

cilmen who will' be changed from
wards by the new lines and automatic

tinue to serve, la anxiously waited,
both by citizens and the city's solons.
After much deferrment the council
finally passed the bill Monday night
establishing the ntw boundaries for
wards, after the' date it is to become
effective was changed to March It in
stead of March 15. This was changed
to enable the present members of the
council, if, by opinion of city Attorney
Macy they are not to be retained, to
hold another meeting before the meas-
uita becomes effective so thjby can
elect successors. Following the meet
ing most of the councllmen met in im
promptu adjourned session and dis
cussed the feasabllity and possibility ol
electing themselves to the positions
again, only from different wards.
Whether this will meet with the ap
proval of the citizens is not known.
Macy Denies Opinion.

ordinance would have on the status of
the councllmen by "Councilman Uttar,
City Attorney Macy said: "I have no
opinion to render at this tlme.n'

to bring in an opinion next meeting.
John B. Glesey was asked appointed
successor to W. A. Wiest, resigned
councilman from ward six, in a por
tion submitted to the council Monday
night. Walter Skelton, former city en
gineer, was also asked to fill the same
vacancy in another petition. The sup
porters of Mr. Giesey declared that
their part of the ward ln the south
has not had representation in the city
council for 10 years, Mr. Skelton is
held the logical candidate for the
place because of his thorough knowl
edge of municipal affairs and his abll
tly to execute the duties of the office.
Bids Are Asked.
The city recorder was ordered to ac
cept bids for the construction of 1945
lineal feet of concrete sidewalk through

action.
Councilman Moore came In for a
'bawlln out" during the snssion'when
he appeared with an ordinance for the
connection of a sewer ln the alley of
block 34, Highland addition, to the
city's viaducts. He asked that It be
rushed through that meeting.
Moore ' Is Criticised.
"Mr. Moore has blundered before on
sewer questions," Councilman Utter
said, "and I am opposed. to this being
railroaded through like this without
being investigated."
Moore defended his action by saying
that the ctly had granted manufactur
es outside of the city to connect with
municipal sewers, and '.d he could
not see why they should oppose this
petition.
Church street, between Highland
and Pine, will be paved as soon as
plans and specifications and work can
be undertaken, as a result of favorable
action taken on a petition that had

PEOPLE WHO
KNEW HOOVER
Cronise Would Establish
Hoover In President's
Chair If Given Power
By "Kind Fairy."
That Herbert Hoover, who Is now
being urged for the presidency by
many of our best citizens and news
papers, was a persistent chap and of a
progressive disposition even as a boy
is evidenced ln some degree by an In
cident which occurred in 1889, or
thereabout, when he was office boy
for the Oregon Land company in this
city, according to Tom Cronise, 193
North Commercial street.
"Bert's uncle was president of the
company ,and the circumstances un
der which the boy became a resident
of Salem are now generally known,"
says Mr. Cronlce.
Tells of Experiments.
"The company occupied rooms tn
the old state insurance building, at tha
corner of Commercial and Chemeketa
street, now the property of the Y. M.
C. A. The company's offices were o.n
the first floor. My printing office was
on the second floor. Running from
the rear of the company's office was a
hallway, and ln this hallway, boxed In
was a water motor from which a belt
extended to the press power shaft up
stairs. "Being Interested in the develop
ment of fruit lands, the company had
been making experiments looking to
the preservation of prunes and other
fruits, and ln these experiments young
Hoover was much concerned. Wheth
er he was engaged In Independent ex
periment or not I do not know, but one
day the atmosphere in the press room
became so charged with sulphur fumes
Mia to breathe was difficult. Ths
fumes appeared to be coming through
the holes In the floor provided for the
belt from the motor, and a hasty In
spection revealed young Hoover busi
ly engaged- with a quantity of fruit, a
pan, an alcohol lamp and other para
phernalia spread upon the motor box.
Clung Doggedly to Tusk.
"I renfember with sadness that I ex
postulated with him through the holes
in the floor. So engrossed wa he in
his exporlments that he gave small
neea. to my. abost-wlnded remarks.
And then (1 remember this also with
sadness) 1 directed some words to him
that caused him to look up with con
cern on his face. The words were al
most as sulphurous as the atmosphere
he was creating. My companion in the
press room stated that the combina
tion was the strongest thing In his ex
perience, and the grin on his face
would have Illuminated the top of the
Woolworth building.
"The experiments, in that immediate
locality at least, ended then and there
but I have never forgotten the look of
earnestness on young Hoover's face
nor the persistence with which he
clung to the work he was engaged In.
The same tenacity of purposo seems to
nave evinced Itself through his whole
career. Shortly after this he went to
California, where his brother Tad, who
got his first Job In Salem ln my print
ing office, later followed him.
from my acquaintance with Her
bert Hoover as a boy, I am convinced
that he Is eminently capable and hon
est and possesses the mighty grace of
sincerity. If some good falrv should
put Into my hands the deciding vote
for president of the United States, I
would cp.st it for Hoover and be vrr
glad of the opportunity for doing so."

DEMOCRA TS ASKED TO SIGN
HOOVER NOMINATING PETITIONS
Petitions have been sent to the Capital Journal office and
can be signed there to place Herbert Hoover's name upon the
primary ballot as a democratic candidate for president.
The fact that Hoover has refused to state his party alleg
iance does not prevent the people of either or both parties
from nominating him against the wishes of the politicians,
and his own wishes. It is a case of the job seeking the man.
Only registered democrats are eligible to sign these
petitions, but if any republican will get out similar petitions
to nominate Hoover, the Capital Journal will render similar
aid in securing signatures.
