EXPECT CRIMINAL ACTION IN
TEACHERS CASE

% TEACHERS CASE
Rumors in labor circles are strong
that there will be criminal action on
peculiar deals framed up against the
Teachers Federation. g..
Gov. Dunno and the state admins
tration are said to be cooperating
with States Atty Hoyne in getting
all possible evidence on the matter of
the senate journal being corrected to
show passage of resolution not seen
nor heard of by rather keen-eyed and
keen-eared senators sitting close to
the speakers desk.
Both Senators Duff Piercy and
Kent Keller are friends of the gov
ernor and thei rstatements are de-
cisive that they heard nothing of Res
olution 76 creating the Baldwin COM
mittee until a second printing of the
senate journal with a correction"
showing Sen. Sam Ettelson offering
Resolution 76.
Others among the 81 senators feel
that the senate is joke as legisla-
tive body if the senate journal can be
corrected" so as to show the passage
of legislation thatnever reached the
ears of senators on the floor all the
closing day, legislation which also
never reached the ears of the official
shorthand reporter. ...........,... ~.
William L. Corris, official senate
reporter, is said to be ready to testify
he heard no Resolution rs called up,

the da yof adjournment. He knows
of nor esolution 76 following Resolu-
ton rs, which he recorded as the last.
Judge O'Connor will say Wednes-
day, it is now expected, whether he
will issue a writ stopping the school
board from enforcing the Loe-Roth-
man rule.

UNLESS SHE HAS TO
London, Sept. 2o-Great Britain
will not force her sons into army by
parliamentary enactment except as
last resort. But if CONSUMPTION is
found necessary there is little like
ihood that there will be any civil
war" or social revolt" despite free
use of those terms by opponents OF
compulsory service in the last few
days.
The conscriptionists are greatly
encouraged at indications of Lloyd
Georges personal opinion that ma
tional service is only solution. They
also attach considerable significance
to speech made yesterday by J. H.
Thomas, labor member of parliament
and sec'y of Railway Employees
union. He urged country not to
misunderstood feeling of working
classes against CONSUMPTION, indicat-
ing that if it can be shown compul-
sorry service is the only means of saw
ing empire from inglorious peace,
workers will withdraw their opposi-
ton.

parliament and noted British labor
leader, declared that British Social
lists mot only will submit to conscrip-
ton if necessary, but everything else
that is necessary for triumph of our

United States Demands Recall
Of German Embassy Attaches

Washington, d. C. - Immediate
withdrawal of Captain Karl Boy-Ed
and Captain Franz Won Papen, respec-
lively naval and military attaches Of
the German embassy, has been request
ed by the State department.
In making formal announcement Of
this action, Secretary Lansing said the
attaches had rendered themselves per-
soma non grata to the United States by
improper activities in connection with
naval and military matters, which was
shown by evidence in the trial Of the
Hamburg-American officials for con-
spiracy against the United States in
New York.
The secretary acted with the full
approval of President Wilson, who is
understood to have determined that
the United States shall be rid of fore
ign officials who make themselves OBJ
noxious by activity harmful to the
best interests of the nation.
The State department made its re-
quest three days before the verdict Of
the New York court, through Count
Won Bernstorff, the German ambassa-
dor. Announcement of the fact was
withheld as matter Of courtesy to
Germany and to prevent the charge
from being made that the jury trying
the warship supply conspirators had in
any way been influenced in reaching a
verdict.

Wireless Amateurs.

There are now between $4,000 and
100000 purely amateur wireless sta
tions In the United states. according
TO II. Gernsback, editor OF the Nloc
trical Experlmontor. There arc moi
moro than $4,000 such stations In all
the rest OF the world. And no goes
on TO explain the value OF these hun
dreds OF thousands OF amateurs. most
OF whom are schoolboys, as follows.
"The average amateur must needs
have higher intelligence than his
card playing, dance hall resorting
classmate. Indeed. when your aver.
age radio amateur has mastered all
the intricacios OF wireless set, he
has obtained pretty thorough knowl
edge OF electricity In general. As O
rule most OF our electrical industries
big and little. require thoroughly prac'

Swinging Dial Scale Best.

Salem-To avoid Misunderstanding
concerning the kind of scales it is per-
missible to use in weighing commodi-
ties for the sale at public markets es-
tablished in different towns of the
state, Fred G. Buchtel, deputy sealer
of weights and measures, announces
that scales with the ordinary swinging
dial, would be allowed. He said:
''Do not buy scales commonly known
as family scales or Of similar type;
as the name implies, they are not nor
never were intended for use in trade,
are generally inaccurate and will not
pass inspection. Furthermore, scales
should be purchased subject to the ap-
proval of the Office Of weights and
measures, with the privilege Of re-
turn if inaccurate.

Wheat Outlook Not Clear.

Portland grain dealers see no reason
to change their attitude toward the
wheat market, and consequently busi-
ness is inactive all along the line, with
prices more or less stationary. Where
there was a change in quotations it
was in the nature of reduction.
No one is able yet to figure out what
will be the effect of the Canadian en-
barge, but the feeling prevails that If
it influences the American market in
any way it will be adversely. The net
result of the operations at Chicago was
decline of Z cent, and it would occa-
sion no surprise if the Eastern mar
kets would continue to sag for several
days, or at least until the situation
clears. The influence Of the Canadian
governments action, it is expected,
will soon be felt in the freight market
on the Atlantic side, and that should
furnish cue as to the probable course
of wheat values. In the meantime,
the trade here seem disposed to stand
by and await developments.
No trading is reported at country
points. At the exchange in Portland
there was sale of 5000 bushels of De-
cember club at 90 cents, the same
price that was bid the previous day.
Offers for January club were lowered
/ cent. December bluestem bids were
also down / cent, and fife offers were
to cents lower than last week.
Other varieties and deliveries Of
wheat were unchanged.in price. There
was nothing doing in the coarse grains,
the former prices were posted.
