(Pi Fanned by a brisk wind, the biggest fire in the life of this historic old town raged for five hours before it was checked early today after it had de stroyed a cannery, two ware houses and several old buildings and wharves along the water front. Fire Chief William Davena estimated the damage at $200. 000. Cause of the blaze was un known. The fire started in a ware house and spread quickly to the Benicia Canning company plant. The flames destroyed the three-acre cannery building, two warehouses of the American Can company, and then raged on a half-mile front along the waterfront, burning two S30.000 fishing boats to the waterline. W. U. MUST REFUND EMPLOYES' DUES Washington, Nov. 2. Iff) The Western Union Telegraph company has been ordered by the national labor relations board to disestablish its associa tion of Western Union Employes us a bargaining agency and re imburse employes for dues de- ducted from pay envelopes since 1 July 5, 1935. The board order, issued last night, was based on a finding the 20-year old association was "supported and dominated" by the company. The board's decision did not disclose the amount of due to be i repaid but Joseph P. Selly, vice president of the American Com munications association (CIO), said in New York that it would be more than $500,000." The case was filed by the A.C.A.

(Cir cuit Judge James Crawford said after a hearing yesterday that some of the rules governing ad vertising by dentists were arbi trary and unreasonable and that he would issue a temporary re straining order against their en forcement. He said the state board of dental examiners had authority to promulgate rules and regu lations but that some of the re cent ones were beyond its au thority. A temporary Injunction against the rules was asked by Dr. Harry Semler of Portland- Germany's annexation of Polish territory, which returned to the Reich Pomorie, Poinan and Silesia left unexplained the fate of some 50.000 square miles which have been occupied up to the Soviet frontier. Area shaded by broken lines on the above map indicated the territory annexed, and represents a return to Germany of the area taken from her by the Versailles treaty. Heavy line through Poland is the western frontier of Soviet Russia. Ladybug Catcher Seattle, Nov. 2. VP) W. C.

OF COURSE, none of the meas ures put forward by the house Republicans will be en acted (the Democratic majority will see to that), but the pro posals will furnish campaign ma terial in the primaries next year and, presumably, will be reflect ed in the platform of the Re publican national convention. Republicans are convinced that they have some good talk ing points, such as opposition to trade agreements, as these treaties have, in many instances, sacrificed agriculture to aid for eign competitors. FORECAST of how the Northwest delegation In the house will vote on the do-called neutrality btlt: Washington state, six votes for the bill; Oregon, one vote for and two against. The votes will be cast on party lines. President Roosevelt does not like the neutrality bill entirely; many concessions had to be made from time to time to eliminate opposi tion, but the president was most anxious to have the mandatory em bargo repealed, and this he was granted. Original Idea was to repeal the embargo and then authorize the president to use his Judgment In dealing with the European situation. This was the purport of the presi dent's personally delivered message to congress when he asked for legis lation and suggested the congress then return home. As a sop to sen ators who lack confidence In the president when acting "on his own" with the war problems, Mr. Roose velt announced that he wanted Ma jority Leader Barkley and Minority Leader McNary to remain in order to consult with them. When the president was leaving the capltol Mc Nary said he wanted to go home Replied Mr. Roosevelt, stick around and I'll take you fishing, or words to that effect. A WESTERN news editor questions a statement In this space that there was deliberate suppression of arguments of important senators op posing embargo repeal and Inquires: "Who suppressed the news When did all the United States papers get to gether and agree to run an argument with only one or two paragraphs?" There was no Intention to Indict the press as a whole, but there were palpable examples In this neck of the woods, the papers congressmen see most frequently. Press services, naturally, endeavor to send out an Impartial report but there are papers covering congress with their own men who discard the reports of the services. IN OLD AGE AID Portland, Nov. 2 Iff) Old- age assistance payments will be held at present levels the rest of the biennium, the state pub lic welfare commission an nounced yesterday.
