.BALL|NGER WOULD OPEN
CALIFORNIA OIL LANDS
Secretary Favors Policy to In
crease Production and Re-
duce Cost of Fuel

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Liberal
policy in opening the public oil lands
in California and other states will be
recommended to congress by Secretary
Ballinger in his annual report. He de-
clared today that he favored general
leasing system for oil and gas-bearing
lands.
1.-THE government" said the secretary,
"ought to support any movement that
would reduce the cost of fuel, and for
oiI-bearing and s-bearing lands there
should be such a system as will pro-
mote legitimate developments of the In
dustry. prevent monopoly and conserve
one of the gerat resources of the coun-
try"
Mr.. Ballinger expressed the beliet
that the existing law providing for the
location and entry of mineral oil land
is wholly inadequate.
recommendations which will be made
in the matter resulted from the recent
visit of Assistant Secretary Pierce to
the California oil fields.
state co-operation with the federal
government to prevent monopoly in the
oil business and to secure reasonable
nrice to the consumer is favored by the
secretary.
The leasing system, in the opinion of
Mr. Ballinger, should be applied only
to areas withdrawn from classification
or classified by the geological survey,
leaving only the unknown and unex-
plored lands open to exploration and
location under the general, placer act.

FUND COMPLETED;
VIDAL HOME SAVED.
Herald Benefit Splendid Success;
Raises Sum for Widow
to Over $500

Mrs. Dolores Vidal is no longer in
danger of losing her home.
The concert given last night for her
benefit raised the fund collected by
The Herald to more than $500, which
is q sufficient sum to redeem the lien
'on her property and save the home
for her.
For two weeks more than a dozen
artists In the city have been bending
every effort to arrange a good pro-
gram that would draw all the music
lovers as we'll as the people who were
interested in the Vidal case before.
The result Of their efforts was wit
messed in Blanchard hall last evening
by a large crowd who responded so
enthusiastically that, although encores
had been strictly forbidden, many of
the performers were called back sew
Probably there is no voice outside

poets to go east next spring to con-
tinue her work under masters in New
York That she will have no equal on
the stage in the course Of a few years

STEAMERS CRASH
IN FOG; ONE SINKS
Liner Beaver and Freighter SeIja
Collide Off San Francisco.
Two Chinese Drown

ship off Point Reyes, her course laid
seaward across the path of the coast
wise steamers, the tramp steamer
Selja, bound for San Francisco from
Hongkong, was rammed and sunk by
the steamer Beaver this afternoon.
Although the big vessel filed with
water and .was lost to sight within
fifteen minutes after the collision, the
only fatalities were the death of two
Chinese members of the crew.
Captain Olaf Lie, his wife and two
children, the six other officers and the
thirty-five members of the crew, were
rescued by the crew of the Beaver.
The Beaver had just cleared this port
and was northbound for Columbia river
points. The passenger vessel was pro-
ceeding under a slow bell, her Whls-
tie sounding at intervals of one min
ute. Suddenly, not more than two
ship lengths away, the Selja appeared
off the starboard bow The Beaver S
engines were quickly reversed, and
from her deck the passengers could
see the other vessel come to a stop.
The collision could not be averted,
however, and the Beaver ploWed
her way into the port side of the Selja,
just forward of amidship. There was
no confusion on either vessel.
Three boats, with Mrs. Lie and the
children in the first one, were lowered
over the side of the sinking ship. One
boat was battered against the side and
demolished, it's occupants being thrown
into the water, two of them being lost.
Under the direction of Capt. William
Kidston, two boats left the Beaver and
took the remainder of the Selja's crew
in safety from her deck a few minutes
before the vessel disappeared beneath
the surface.
Capt Lie remained with his ship
until the last, scrambling over the side
and into the water after the boats had
left, and being rescued along with Chief
Engineer Ronbeck Eggen, who had
fallen overheard.
The Beaver, her bow plates smashed
and leaking slightly, put back to this
port arriving at o'clock tonight.
The Selja was owned by the Port
land-Asiatic Steamship company. She
carried a cargo of general merchandise
consigned to local Chinese and Jap
anese merchants, valued at more than
500 900. The Beaver plies between
Portland, San Francisco and Los An

British Premier and Chief Secre-

Handled by Women

Smashed Residences of
Officials Stormed
Associated Pressl

LONDON, Nov. 22.-The political
campaign is being waged with a
tierceness almost unknown in Lon
don, 10Th by politicians on the stump
and the suffragettes on the battlefield.
The battle of Downing street, fought
this afternoon when several hundred
suffragetttes attempted to storm the
premier's residence, assaulted Mr.. AS
Quith and Austen Burrill, chief secre-
tary for Ireland, and broke many Win
doWs in the government offices, sur
passed all previous spectacles OF the
sort. About $50 women and several
men supporters are in the police sta
tion tonight.
The suffragette attack followed an
announcement by the prime minister
in the house of commons that if he
were still in power at the next session
of parliament the government would
find facilities for the consideration or
a suffrage bilLs
The women were infiamed rather
than placated by this promise. They
left Caxton hall in search of the pre-
mier and came upon him on the way
to Downing street.
The suffragettes formed a hostile
Gordon around Mr.. Asquith, who re-

WOMEN DRAGGED AWAY
The police had great difficulty In
putting down the disorders, and many
of the women had to be dragged from
The scene with clothes half torn from
their backs.
The rioting continued until evening,
when squads of women attacked the
residences of Sir Edward Grey, the for
eign secretary; of Winston Spencer
Churchill, the home secretary, and or
Lewis Harcourt, secretary for the colo
niles. stones crashed through the win
dows of the houses, Sir Edward Greys
bearing the brunt of the attack.

the suffragettes, was among those tax

through the Jail window. She was also
incarcerated. Miss Grace Johnson was
the only American arrested.
Mr.. Churchill addressed a big meet
ing this evening from which seVeral
men adherents Of the women's cause
were dragged out by the police. Mr.
Churchill strongly defended the proprl-
ETY. of Irish Americans contributing TO
the home rule cause. The cry of Amer
lean dollars was likely to be used as a
retort by the Liberals, he said, since
Waldorf Astor had announced that he
was again the candidate of the Con-
