Lays Emphasis On the Danger

intimate light on President Wilson IS
personal views with regard to the en-
ergencies and big situation he has faced
while in the White House, transcript
of the executives confidential talk to
the Washington newspaper correspond
ents at the National Press club was re-
ceived with great interest here today.
Speaking of the international affairs,
the president said: off I cannot retain
my moral influence over a man except
by occasionally knocking Him down, if
that is the only basis on which he will
respect me, then for the sake of his soul
L have got to occasionally knock him
down"
He said that worrying over the Euro
pean situation had kept him awake
nights "because there might come a
time when the United States would
have to do what do not desire to do "
With regard to public men who have
come under his eye, Wilson said that
during their stay in Washington some
of them grew and some of them swelled.
Discussing the relationship of the
press to national affairs, the president
voiced a warning against the spreading
of false reports saying they were liable
to lead to trouble.
"America, he said, "is for peace
because she loves peace and believes
the present war has carried the ma
tions engaged so far that they cannot

Daughter Of Captain Gore
Sister Of Mrs. ]. H. Wilson
Of This City
HEAD CRUSHED WITH BIG
HAMMER AS SHE SLEPT
Chauffeur Rishnan Supposed
Murdered d---Ex-COnVict Is
Suspected

Portland, Ore, May 17.-An ex.con-
7ict was sought by police and deputy
sheriffs throughout Oregon today on the
belief that he was the fiend who swung
o 1l-pound sledge hammer and crushed
the skull of Mrs. Helen Jennings while
she slept Monday night.
Mrs. Jennings body was discovered
in her home between Tualatin and Sher-
wood, 10 miles from Portland. late yes
terday. Outside the house stood the
automobile of Fred Ristman, iitney
driver. The machine was blood soaked
and Ristman was missing. Detectives
believe the murderer killed Ristman and
hid his BODY on the theory that "deod
men tell no tales.
This ex-convict is known to have
tried to force his attention on Mrs. Jen-
nings. She frequently expressed fear
Of him.
81 would not have him angry at me
for anything in the world" she told a
ueighbOr recently.
Mrs. Jennings was Al years old. She
was the divorced wife of Orville O. Jen-
Iings, Southern Pacific railroad man.
After her divorce from Jennings she
married J. S. Seed. a Portland con.
tractor, and later separated from him.
She was the daughter of the late Cap.
tain George A. Gore. Mrs. J. H. Wilson
Of Salem, and Mrs. T.. H. Robinson OF
Vualatin, were sisters.
Robbery was not the motive, Officers
are convinced. The murder apparently
was carefully planned. At p. ma ll on.
day man answering the ex-convict :
description hired Ristman to take him
to Sherwood. He carried bag of tools
and said he was plumber.
Ristman failed to return. His wife
and friends were alarmed and started
u search yesterday. At Sherwood they
found no trace of him. Returning, they
saw his automobile near the home OF
Mrs. Jennings. Finding nobody about
the place, they looked into the machine
and saw that it was spattered will
blood. They rushed to Tualatin anC
summoned officers.
The door Of the house was broker
open, Mrs, Jennings body was lying
ia bed. A pillow had been thrown owe
Iher face. The heavy sledge hammer wal
beside the bed. A single blow. and ,
terrific one, had crushed her head flat
The murderer evidently gained ent
rance to the house through window.
Officers believe Ristman was murder
cd before arriving at Mrs. Jennings
home, aud that the murderer dispose,
OF his body along the road. The BLOOD
on the automobile was in the back O
the car. 1t is thought Ristman's BODY
was carried in the tonneau after he wa
slain.
The man sought was paroled from tn
Oregon penitentiary two years ago
where he was serving 20 year sentence
for highway robbery. He was know
Qs the lone highwayman. =" when onl,
q years old he held up an Oregon Cit,

berries in the vicinity of Portland wer
laid at his door. In 1901 his aetivitie

Word "LabOrer" Offensive
to Government SnObS

San Francisco, May l7-Never again
will there be "laborers in the Gus,
toms service. The men who have been
"laborers will still be there but now
they are to be assistants, " "clerks y
or "helpers"
Justice Wardell, surveyor of the
port, has discovered, he says, that the
title "laborer" is deadly to efficiency
He finds that under a more important
title better service can be expected.
At recent meeting Of customs
heads in the east efficiency talk figur-
ed promintnely. More complete desig-
nation of duties and offices was
thought advisable. Wardell is the first
official to act on this. In a report
today he advocates greater chances for
advances for the young man in t1e
service.
