CONGRESSMAN ALEXANDER DE
LINERS SPEECH ABOUT 1T
AT BOSTON.
SAYS 9OPERCENT CONTROLLED
Entire Foreign American Shipping Is
Allied Through Interiocking Di-
rectorates of Rockefeiler-Mo or
uan-Perkins Interests.

Boston, Mass.-The magma charta
of American shipping, proclaiming
freedom from the feudal barons Of
maritime commerce." was the charac-
terization which Representative Alex
ander chairman OF the house mari
time committee, applied to the admin
istration ship purchase bill in a speech
here Tuesday night before the Bos
ton Chamber of Commerce.
ITO sum up the entire situation,
he said IAN investigation will prove
that more than 80 per cent of the
coastwise and practically the entire
foreign American shipping is allied
through interlocking directorates with
the National City bank, United States
Trust company, National Bank Of
Commerce and Guaranty Trust com
pany, all of which have for their foun-
tain head the Rockefeller Morgan-Per
kins interests.
1T is against this aggregation that
the administration, representing the
American people, finds itself The
shipping interests realize that the en-
trance of the government into the
field will break the chain by which
they have the Independents shut out
Government owned vessels are what
they most fear, for it beans a break
water-a bunker-a protection for the
Independents shut out, who now dares
not, at his peril, to invest a dollar n
shipping against the powerful organi-
zation, but who would be willing to
invest if pair play was allowed.
1T is said the same interests own,
or are interested in, several of the big
eastern newspapers. The vision of
these papers is colored and others are
affected by revenues of steamship ad
vertising. Therefore, you find a stall
wart opposition by the eastern news
papers to the government policy"

GERMANS TRY AGAIN
RENEW ATTACKS SlMULTANE-
oUSLY no SOUTH AND WEST
OF WARSAW.
HAVE CHANGED THEIR PLANS
Men at Russian Capital Think
Austro-German Forces Would
Take vangorod-Chances Grow
Less Every Day.

Petrograd, Jan. 4, via London
Having for. flied themselves along the
line through Skierniewice, Rawa and
Opocznew, Russian Poland, the Ger
mans again have renewed their stub
born attacks simultaneously to the
south and west of Warsaw and have
endeavored to cross the Vistula river
near Czerwinsk, evidently with the in.
tention of directing a movement
against Nowo Georgiewsk This is the
information contained in dispatches
received here from the eastern war
theater.
In the south, near GrOitzy, the Ger
mans are attempting an advance to-
ward the Vistula, in the region mid
way between Warsaw and Ivangorod,
it is said.
The German plan, according to the
dispatches, seems to be to have the
Austro-German forces, which are now
near Konskie and moving in the gen
eral direction of Radon and Ivango-
rod, join the German forces around
Groitzy in beseiging Ivangorod.
Military men here express the opin-
ion that it is now apparent that Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg's real goal is
not so much Warsaw, the capture of
which would give him only a moral
advantage, as Nowo Georgiewsk and
Ivangorod, for the Germans, in order
to keep western Poland, must possess
the latter two places. 1t is assured
however, that the Germans are still
60 to 20 miles from Ivangorod and that
every day the probability of taking
these places is lessened.
The general opinion expressed in
Petrograd is that neither Ivangorod
nor Nowo Georgiewsk can be taken
The Russians, however, do not depre
ciate the perfection of the German
technique and fierceness of attack ant
the effect of the German heavy artil
lery now in action in Poland.

GERMANY WANTS OUR TRADE
Attitude on Transfer to American Flag
of English Built Vessels Stated.

Washington.-The attitude of the
German government toward the trans
fer to American registry of British
built ships is reported in a cablegram
from Ambassador Gerard at Berlin,
dated December 2S, which was pub
lished last Saturday in the Daily Com
merce reports, issued by the foreign
commerce bureau.
Inquiry was directed by Mr. Gerard
to ascertain if there would be objec-
ton to the exchange of American cot
ton by such vessels for German prod
ucts, and the reply, he states, was sub
stantially as follows:
"It may be stated that the transfer
to the American flag of British YES
sci after war has been started is not
valid per sc but the German govern
ment, reserving the right at any time
to withdraw its consent, is ready
where such ships are engaged only in
direct trade between American and
German ports and carrying American
goods into German ports and return
ing German material consigned to and
for use only in the United States to
waive the invalidity of such transfer"
The message adds that it would be
expedient in the view of the German
foreign office that an official state
ment of the purpose of such vessels
to engage only in the traffic mentioned
be prepared by an American official
and that a safe conduct for each round
trim ha ohtainad from tho Garman an
bassador here requesting German war
vessels not to interfere with the
steamer.

out of the public funds.
Summary of Message.
Reduce expenses, not piecemeal, but
by halves
Continuing appropriations have no
place in a free country.
Specify every item for which money
is appropriated.
No bonds should be authorized at
this session for any purpose.
Would cut own salary from $4,000
to $4,000 and advises similar pruning
for others.
Suggests consultations to save
money. Can not imagine what some
boards are for.
Suggests laws on the ballot divorce,
classified counties, workmen's COM
pensation, tax levies, investment of
state funds and submission of prohibi-
ton, initiative, referendum and recall
As to Liquor.
Regarding liquor the message says:
81 recommend that you pass the
necessary legislation to submit to the
qualified voters in 1916 a constitu-
tional amendment to be voted upon
that will prohibit the manufacture and
sale of Intoxicating liquor in this
state forever, in any manner, shape or
form. The proposed amendment should
be so drawn that no doubt shall larise
as to it's meaning.
Il further advise that more than a
constitutional amendment is required
of us. Our sister states of Washing
ton and Oregon, on November 3, 1914
wrote into the organic law of those
states the voice of the people pro
hibiting the manufacture and sale OF
alcoholic beverages, on and after Jan
uary 1, 1916. These states border up
on Idaho and unless we take prompt
action to protect our people, theiI
homes and their young, Idaho will be
made the rendezvous for the liquor
traffic of these states.
81 recommend that law be passed
in addition to the submission of con
stitutional amendment prohibiting the
manufacture and sale of all alcoholic
beverages on and after January
1916. This law should further provide
that no further local option elections
may be held and that no licenses be
granted for the sale of alcoholic liz
uors as beverages. either at wholesal,
or retail, under any circumstances be
yond the time said statutory prohibi
ton shall become effective"

OREGON MURDERER coNFEssEs
Lock of Hair From Victim Displayed
Before Him the Cause.


Salem, Ore.-A lock of his own hair,
taken from the clutch of one of his
dead victims, who had fought desper-
ately for her life and that of her child,
held before his eyes caused John G. H.
Sierks, a 25-year-old inmate of the
state insane asylum, to confess Sun
day to the killing of Mrs. Daisy Wehr-
man and her little boy in their little
cabin near Scappoose, Ore, on the
night of September A, 1911.
John Arthur Fender, convicted of the
crime, and until the recent passage by
the people of bill abolishing capital
punishment, under sentence to be
hanged, will be freed by executive or
der in few days. He is in the peni-
Tertiary here.
Pender had been sentenced to be
hanged October % last. He always
had maintained his innocence. When
it was determined to submit resolu-
ton for the adjustment of capital
punishment to the people Governor
West reprieved him until after cleo
ton, saying he wanted render to have
the benefit of the peoples verdict.
George A. Thatcher, Portland Grim
inalologist, brought about the denoue.
emnt. He became convinced of Pen
der's innocence at the time of the
trial. Asylum authorities, as well as
Mr. Thacher, declare there is no
doubt as to the truth of Sierks' con
fession.
