OF EVERYONE IS
"I believe it Is only a matter
of time until finger prints will be
kept on file of everyone in the
country over 16 yearn of age," eail
Joe Murray, finger print expert,
who has been connected with thf
Oregon state penitentiary for the
past 14 years, Mr. Murray advo
cated keeping a record of each
individual's birth with his finget
print, and a history nf the out
standing events of hl life, such
as marriage, birth of children,
and date of his death.
Finger prints do not change
from the time of birth until the
time of dee.lh, Murray stated. The
only reason for waiting until the
ace of 16 Is to take prints ie the
(t.cl that it is hard to gt good
prints of younger children becau"
their hands are small and they
do not hold them steady while tho
print is being taken, he indicated.
Out of millions of finger print.
that have been taken and placed
on file no two have ever been
found alike. "Nature never re
peats herself." said Murray. The
print on an Individual's finger in
dicates nothing of bis character
istics, mental, moral or racial, ac
cording to the fiprakcr. Finger
print similai itie-j can be inherited,
however.
The Bertillon system of Identifi
cation, which involves measure
ments ot various parts of the body,
bra been largely discarded, Mur
ray stated, because of the fact that
it is moe difficult to use nd in
dividuals cannot be clasei fieri so
readily under the Bertillon aystem.
Finger prints are classified so ex
actly that nnp can be found in a
file of 100.000 in two minutes,
t'sera of the system' pay no atten
tion to a nian's name or his photo
graph. "Under our present sytem u
man has Just one chance In ten of
getting away and staying away,"
said Murray. He cited tho case of
Oregon Jones and several other
outstanding cases nf criminals
traced and brought back to the
penitentiary here through the use
of the finger print method.

FINGERPRINTS
THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON
E
The attitude or tho Oregon
public service commission toward
recent developments in the cen
tral Oregon railroad situation was
made known Saturday when the
commission filed an answer to the
recent' petition of the Oregon
Trunk for a certificate of public
convenience and necessity author
izing the extension of ittj line from
Bend to Klamath Falls.
The answer was prepared by
William P. Ellis and J. M. Devers.
attorneys for the commission. 11
emphasizes the need of additional
rail service but strongly urges
that it be affordea without neces
sary duplication of investment.
In particular attention is cited to
the fact" that under the Oregon
Trunk's propoeed plan tis trackage
would run parallel to the South
ern Pacific line for 80 miles, from
a junction point near Odell or
okookum to Klamath Falls. It is
asserted in the answer that iden
tical service could be given ut a
saving ot over $3,500,000 by ar
rangements for joint use of the
Southern Pacific tracks between
these points. The answer urges
that while the interests of the
Klamath Falls territory demand
the added and competitive service
of the Oregon Trunk, authoriza
tion for the construction of the
duplicate parallel track should
not be given unless it can be
shown that arrangements for joint
use of existing track cannot be
made. The Oregon commission
makes clear Its desire that the
state bb provided with an ade
quate transportation system with
out unnecessary duplication of
trackage or expenditure, such as
occurred when the Hill and Harrl
man interests built in Deschutes
canyon.
Because of a conflict In dates
with the Hose Festival of Port
land, the 53rd annual reunion of
the Oregon Pioneer . association
has been postponed from June 18
until July 1.
All persons who came to or
wore born in the original terri
tory of Oregon before or during
the year 1S59 are eligible to mem
bership in the organization. The
original Oregon territory includ
ed what ie now Oregon, Washing
ton, Idaho nnd parts of Montana
and Wyoming. By recent action
ot the association all vho were
born in or who oame to the Pa
cific coast before or during that
year may become members upon
application.
The meeting on July 1 will be
held at the public auditorium In
Portland under the direction of
Orand Marshal Ivan Hu mason and
hi aides.
Programs, held In the after
noon and tho evening, will in
clude imifiic, speeches, adoption
of resolutions, nnd election of of
ficers for another year. Mayor
Baker ot Portland will give the
address ot welcome.
Declaring that propaganda Is
holding up to ridicule the work of
American patriots, William F.
Coffin urged that a local commit
tee be appointed to Investigate
texts, in address before a large
crowd at the Salem chamber of
commerce auditorium Saturday
night. A great danger Is arising
In the United States due to the
fact that fun is poked at the
patriotic deeds ot early Amer
icans, he declared.
Nathan Hale's statement, "I re
gret that I bare only one life to
give for my country." and Cap
tain Lawrence's words "Don't give
tin the ship.' were among the
phrases cited by the speaker.
Mr. Coffin la head of the Ron
of Veterans, an organization of

Portland, Ore, Hay 25 -Federal
Judf?o C. 13. Bean today postponed
until tomorrow tho sentencing of
Horace Greeley Wilson of llose
uurgr, former Indian agent at the
Klamath reservation, who has
pleaded guilty to an Indictment
charging violation of the Mann
act. Judge lican announced he had
reecived letters .urging clemency
for Wilson, and said he had turn
ed these 1 6 1 tors oyer to the district
Attorney's office for investigation.
"I have received two tetters and
a petition through the main that
are doubtless connected with this
case," said Judge Bean.
"I opened one of the letters, but
as soon ns I saw it was connect
ed with this case I refused to read
It."
"The other letter came by spec
ial delivery, but as it looked ns if
it dealt with tho case, I refused to
open it.
"I do not permit people to come
to my office to talk about cases
that are pending ana I will not
have access to any papers that nmv
deal with a like case.
"I will not open the letter, but
without having read It will hand
the letters and petition to the clerk
to ho filed.
"I will continue this matter of
passing sentence until tomorrow
morning to allow the government
time to examine these papers."
Assistant United States District
Attorney Stearns did not indicate
what action tho government might
lake, but he said It would prob
ably protest on at least one
ground that Wilson had used a
stay, granted him to clear up hi

COLLEGES SEEKING -PEACE
REGENTS
TO TAKE HAND
(Continued from page one)
reeling the work of the schools are
tho boa rds of regents that I hey
are almost completely subservient
to the wishes of thee educators
in the administration of the insti
tutions. They soon como to get
tho viewpoint of the professionals
rather than tho laymen they are
supposed to serve.
Returning to the matter ot du
plicated coiirecn ot study attention
is called to another instance of
Hie expensive practice in the visit
of Rome 150 or more students in
sociology ot the college to the
stute Institutions here last Satur
day. The nature of the Junket
and the extent to which It ww
participated In by students leads
to the belief that miciology forms a
somewhat extensive and more o
lens stressed course at the college,
although major work In Uih
branch Is supposed to he confined
to the university.
The university maintains
completed course In sociology and
even goes so far us to designate
It ta a st liool, presumably under
authority of an order of the ltnart
of higher curricula. Yet, we fit d
the college offering six courses in
general sociology, and six service
courses of majors tn technical de
partment. Study uf those first
nix courses reveals that they arc
primarily inlended for the train
ing of t earlier., which Is suppu-icd

HOMECOMING Al
ANXIETY FOR
EXPLORER IS
WIDESPREAD
(Continued from IMge One)
ned. Early Rocismun, a photogra
pher who lived in Amiiudsen'F
supply hut at Wainwright, Alas
ka, thought that Amundsen';
thoroughness waa probably re
sponsible for the deluy.
It he has tound a new conti
nent he will bag it eo thoroughly
that nobody will be able to ques
tion it," Rodman said.
Others feared a forced landing,
injury to either the plane or men
or bo Uit or some accident In cith
er landing or taking off for the
return. It was pointed out, how
ever, that the expedition' carried
sufficient food for a month and
that at the expiration of that
time the party ehould be In ter
ritory where it could kill north
ern gfime. Rifles and ammunition
for this contingency were car
vied in the planes.
Vernon S. Prentice, brother in
law of Lincoln Ellsworth, believ
ed the planes would hind In Alas
ka. Mr. Prentice eaid he felt no
concern because of the delay and
that he expected no word until to
morrow. Amuntltiens desire to
find new lauds would probably
lead him to steer for Alaska, Mr.
Prentice said.
This view was shared by Vil
li jnlmar Stefansson and other ex
plorers, although dispatches from
Nome threw doubt on the proba
bility of Amundsen's aiming for
the American peninsula.
No concerted plans for a relief
party have been mntlc but the
American expedition In command
of Donald MacMillan is leaving
Boston for the Arctic in June and
the United States navy dirigibles
Los Angeles and Shenandoah may
be utilized in cas of necessity.
Commander MacMillan already
has expressed his intention of go
ing to the rescue provided there
is a call.
In the last and final match
played yesterday at Corvallis in
the Trl-city Tournament between
Salem, Eugene and Corvallis, the
Eugene Country Club won and be
came permanent possessor of the
handsome silver cup put up five
years ago for the team winning
