REPEAL OF FREE
SUGAR CLAUY
House Democratic Caucus, by Vote
of 81 to 20, Approves OF 1t as Party
Measure to Increase Revenues

WASHINGTON-Leg repeal
ing the free sugar clause of the I'm
derwood tariff law before May L, the
date on which the provision would be-
come effective with a resultant annual
loss of O,000, 900 of revenue, virtually
was assured today as a result OF the
action of the house Democratic eau
Gus last night.
The proposed legislation was decid-
ed upon by a vote of "a to 20, after
a vigorous fight against it led by Rep.
Heating of Colorado, who denounced
the action as a reputation OF party
doctrine. Ten Democrats declined be-
cause of other pledges or conviction,
to be bound by the caucus decision.
AS the law now stands, sugar would
go on the free list May /, with con
sequent estimated revenue loss at the
rate of 40O,OOO,0O0 annually The re
peal, which is expected to pass both
houses before May l, is provided nor
in bill prepared by Majority LeaGN
Kitchin.
Mr.. Kitchin told the caucus that the
preparedness program was going to
cost the government great deal OF
money and that the expense would
have to be met with as little burden
upon and annoyance to the people as
possible He said that while the COM
mittee had not formed any conclu-
sions. he thought the majority senti-
ment favored meeting the prepared
ness expenditures mainly from the In
come tax and by resort to an excise
tax on special articles and munitions
manufactures.
Stamp taxes, Mr.. Kitchin said, ~
many cases were obnoxious and, wheE
possible, they would be eliminate5/in
the forthcoming general revenue lasis-
lation. When asked if this would in
clude stamp taxes on wines and Ii
uuors, he declared that, on the con-
trary, those articles might be made
subject to increased tax.
A vigorous fight against the free
sugar repeal was led by Rep. Heating
of Colorado, who denounced the action
as reputation of party doctrines.
Rep. billiard of Colorado also told
how the party in Colorado for 20 years
had preached the doctrine that the re-
peal bill proposed to repudiate.
The following Democrats gave for
NAL notice that they absolved them
selves from being bound by the eau
Gus by reason of other pledges or con-
victions:
Representative Almon, Alabama
Bailey, Pennsylvania; Galloway, Tex
as. billiard and Heating, Colorado
Howard, Georgia; Johnson, Kentucky
Tavenner, Illinois; Thompson. Okla
homa, and Van Dyke, Minnesota.

as to the probable origin of the fire.
1t started in the basement of four
story brick building at the corner of
South Main and Spring streets, oc-
cupied by the department store of the
Steiger company. The night watch
man in this store, Michael O'Rourke,
said today that when he made his
last round shortly before midnight he
saw no sign of fire. A few minutes
later, when he was on an upper floor,
he heard a noise which sounded ike
a slight explosion.

WHAT WE'LL WEAR IN SPRING
BY Betty Brown.
Little coats of ribbon, in black and
white, or in gray and rose or similar
combinations of color, will be worn
with silk gowns of the late spring.
The ribbon is about two inches in
width and the strands are stitched
so closely together that the coat
seems to be made of silk "cut from
the piece"

embroidery is about the least artis-

AUTO STAGE BEGUN

Operation of a Portland Hood River
automobile stage was begun last Sum-
day by R. l.. Herkermer, of Portland.
lhe new service, conducted with a
seven passenger Winton six automobile,
has made popular appeal to local peo-
pie, and numerous citizens have already
taken advantage of the opportunity to
see the scenic Columbia river highway.
The fare for the round trip is $4. one
way SIPS. MIR. Herkermer limits his
passenger list to seven pensions. The
car leaves the Oregon and Mount Hood
hotels at 8 q. In., and returning from

When Oliver Runyon, chauffeur of
the new automobile stage, was coming
to this city last Saturday night two
young fawns were encountered in the
Columbia river highway just east of
Cascade Locks. The little animals
were dazzled by the light and stood
perfectly motionless in the roadway
watching the approaching motor car.

says Mr.. Runyon. ''They were the first

Watanuki Gets Bride

On the eve of his departure for Sc.

sary to have certain credentials from

NEXT WEDNESDAY FLAG DAY

Next Wednesday has been officially
proclaimed Flag Day by Governor
Withycombe. The date, the l39th an
niversary of the adoption Of the Stars
and Stripes, will be generally observed.
Mayor Dumble desires to call the at
tention of Hood River people to the
occasion and urges that all residents
display flags at their homes and places
of business next Wednesday.
Flag day should mean more than in
former years to American citizens,
when we consider the geart European
war, the horrors of such battles as that
at Verdun, such tragedies as that of
Lord Kitchener and staff. The Stars
and Stripes wave over a nation of
peace. But face to face with the all
enveloping strife of the western part OF
the eastern hemisphere, we should en-
deavor to devise methods for preser-
walton of our national peace and honor.
And the sight Of Old Glory ripping in
next Wednesdays west wind should
incite national call for a greater de-
gree Of preparedness such as will pre-
vent possible future war upon our
shores.
Governor Withycombe in his procla.
nation says:
IL earnestly urge that the day be
devoted to exercises indicative of and
conducive to loyalty to the flag; that
in homes, schools, churches and busi-
ness establishments the occasion be
fittingly observed; that the f'ag be dis
played from public buildings, schools,
homes and places of business, and that
the entire commonwealth, at this criti-
cal period of international unrest, unite
in honoring the Flag of the United
States of America and in pledging re-
newed and vigorous loyalty to it and
the principles of liberty it represents. "

A SCENIC hub

As more roads into the surrounding
wilds of mountain region and forests
are Constructed Hood River citizens
are coming into greater realization
that their city is the hub of world
famous scenic district. We really won-
der how many local people have taken
all the roads, radiating out from town,
possible to them. We will wager that
one can spend a half dozen summer
months right in Hood River motoring
frequently and yet ut the end of the
time discover new points of scenic in
terest. A visitor can spend the entire
summer right in Hood River, travel
over new country every day and get a
thrill from new wonders each hour.
We have become so calloused and in
different to our mountains that we al
most forget how they appeal to the
stranger. AS you will remember, your
self, when you first came to the region
you wanted to travel as much as possl-
Bile. You wrote home to friends and
relatives glowing accounts of what you
had seen. Then you became engrossed
in your new business, orchaiding or
whatever it may have been, ind the
scenery became commonplace.
Take a little, journey this summer.
If you have never been to Lost Lake,
join party and spend few days up
in that exalting environment. Renew
your acquaintance with the wonders of
the Cascades.
At intervals during the summer
months the Glacier will publish ac-
counts of journeys of half day, day
or several days through the surround
ing scenic country, endeavoring to give
authentic information as to roads and
what may be seen. If you have just
taken trip that appealed to you, let
US hear from you. We will be glad ito
give it space. Perhaps someone else is
contemplating the same trip and would
be glad to read your story.
In this weeks issue of the Glacier
we publish short account Of half
days trip in the Underw ood and White
Salmon districts.

LOCAL MEN BOOST
FOR YAKIMA ROAD

The proposed Yakima-White Salmon
highway has drawn the enthusiastic
support of local citizens. many Of whom
have made journeys frequently into the
northern part Of Klickitat county and
who are thoroughly familiar with the
topography of the country It will pene-
trate. Business men and ranchers alike
have been heard to endorse the pro-
posed plans. and some action will be
taken by tie local Commercial club,
members Of which have become boost
ers for the scenic route.
"The proposed route" says E. o.
Blanchar, ''seems to me a feasible one.
and its construction is a real need to
the communities it will connect and
those it will penetrate. The scenery of
the Klickitat gorge cannot be sur
passed. Any Hood River man who
knows what the road will mean as a
feeder for the Columbia river highway
will, | am sure, do all in his power to
aid in Fastening its completion.

STEEL BRIDGE DE-
CLARED UNSAFE

Following a report of John W.. Cum
an engineer of Portland, the
members of the city council have de-
clared the steel bridge crossing Hood
river and connecting the city with the
East Side orchard district, unsafe for
use by new truck purchased by the
county for hauling road material. A
proposal on the part of the city author
ities that the county cooperate in the
repair of the structure is apparently
given little Dheed, since the county is
proposing a highline cable across the
Hood river gorge for the transportation
of gravel. Other citizens are urging
on the county court the purchase Of
gravel on the East Side.
"The East Side has just as good
gravel pits as those of the West Side
orchard district" says j. H. Koberg.

themselves of their purchase. 1t will
be cheaper to apply the grave avaiia-
BILE short distance from the East Side
roads than to haul it four or five
miles.
