today he doubted if the proposed

many downtown business men,
would come up tonight, and thought
It would be deferred another two
weeks. The committee had not met
in the question, he said.
The committee two weeks ago
recommended a change of the 30

parking except on certain narrow

will be necessary to make the
change. Mayor Kuhn favors the

DIES IN FRONT
OF S, P. TRAIN
Woodburn, June 21 An unidenti
fied stranger met instant death here
Sunday morning when he deliber
ately walked to the Southern Paci
fic railroad track and lay down in
front on an oncoming train. The
tragedy happened at 9:30 as south
bound passenger train No. 19 had
entered town and was approxima
tely 100 feet from the depot. Con
ductor O. Johnson was in charge
of the train and the engineer was
James Wagonblast.
The body was struck by the pilot
and carried about 200 feet before
the train could be stopped. The man
was apparently about 65 years old,
had gray hair and eyes, was about
six feet tall and weighed between
125 and 130 pounds. He was slightly
hunch backed and crippled with
rheumatism. He wore a pair of gray
moleskin pants. No papers or marks
or identification were found on the
body.
He was said to have spent the
night before here with a group of
floaters but talked very little and
no one had learned his name. He
was seen about two months ago in
Montana and was in Portland about
two weeks ago.
Accprdlng to the story told by the
group with whom he had spent the
night he had made the' same at
tempt earlier in the day when a
train came In but evidently lost his
nerve and stepped back.
Finger prints were taken by the
police and the body will be held at
the Beechler & OUatr mortuary for
a week in hope of identification.

ANGElLRAPS
ROOSEVELT ON
COURT, STRIKE
New Haven, Conn.. June 21 fJV
An attack by President James Row
land Angell on the administration's
labor policy and President Roose
velt's supreme court bill was in the
record today as commencement ac
tivities continued on the Yale cam
pus. In his final Baccalaureate address
yesterday as head of the university.
Dr. Angell charged that "the na
tional government has appeared as
a partisan" in the present labor con
flict and asserted the supreme court
bill Is a means to abet a "rape of
the constitution."
He contended that the nation's
peace and prosperity Is imperilled
and urged that moral, political and
spiritual values be salvaged "If de
mocracy is to measure up to the
compelling needs of the time."
Angell 's attack on the adminis
tration's policies was made in Wool
sey hall where three years ago he
conferred an honorary degree upon
President Roosevelt and praised his
"daring leadership" and "complete
devotion to the service of the na
tion." The fact distinguishing the pres
ent labor crisis "from any we have
ever known before" he said is that
"the national government has ap
peared as a partisan In the con
flict." adding:
"The secretary of labor Is quoted
as not knowing whether a sit-down
strike is legal or not, although there
is hardly any older doctrine In our
common law than that affecting the
right of possession of property.
"The executive is charged with
having encouraged much of the ex
isting disorder, first by silence in
the face of gross violation of law,
and destruction of property by la
bor and then by criticism of em
ployers for failing to sign contracts
with labor groups whose good faith
they regard as open to question."
Angell contended that the presi
dent has promoted "legislation
which, If finally enacted, appears to
imply the further and complete
abdication of the congress, already
more than once put into the stulti
fying position of mere puppets of
the executive."
