Grass Cattle Arrive
In N. Portland Yards

PORTLAND. May 24-Grassers
are beginning to make their appear
ance in the cattle alleys in small vol
ume at North Portland. Somewhat
easier tone is generally reflected in
the trade although for tip-top quality
offerings as high as $3.50 have been
available in the steer division during
the last "a hours. Within short
time it is expected that a liberal
movement of grassers viii come for
ward. During normal times Califor
mia has supplied much early grass
stuff to the North Portland market
but adyices indicate that much OF
the stock has been sold oythe east.
Reports from interior. Oregon and
Idaho points say that cattle are un-
usually fat for this period of the sea-
son. therefore there is no doubt that
the grasser movement will start
quickly.

Swine Market Is Easy.
While some of the buyers assert
that they would still be willing to pay
as high as $50 for a selected quality
load of hogs, the general market for
tops does not touch that price at
North Portland. a few hogs sold
late Thursday afternoon at s19.T5I
and that was the extreme top. and IL
is doubted if a greater supply would
have sold above s19.75. In fact, that
is the extreme top for most quality

sneering laugh from an upper win.

Again they rushed into the house.
but again their search was unsuc-
cessful.
At another time the outlaw ap-
peared mystefiOusly in his mothers
home and Just as mysteriously dis
appeared, despite the closely drawn
Gordon Of police. Search for q tun-
mel was fruitless-the secret never
has been discovered.
Shortly after this Grover disap-
peared from Philadelphia. Mrs
BergdOll appealed to the chairman
Of her sons draft board. Mr. John
P. DWyer, an old family friend for
his assistance IN helping her Sons
evads the draft call. She would
gladly give 100000 to the Red
Cross, she said. If her two boys
might be exempted.
She could never ask her boys TO
submit to the draft and become
lighting soldiers, she said. Her
excuse was that both were afraid
of the sight Of blood. Some, time
later Mrs. Bergdoll' was arrested
and charged with abetting her sons
in their evasion OF their military
duty, but the jury acquitted her It
could only be shown that she had
not urged them to submif-it could
not be proved that she had asked
them not to do so.
The progress Of Grover Berg
doll across the country after
he had fed from Philadelphia was
marked by postal cards which
he imprudently mailed back 70 the
agents Of the Secret Service. He
seemed to take especial delight IN
Haunting his disloyalty IN the face
Of the law and in twitting its rep
resentatives with their failure 70
catch him. The trail Of the postal
cards. was closely followed, but
Grover kept ahead Of the authori-
ties and eventually was heard from
in Mexico, Panama. Colombia and
Venezuela.
Just when the watch about his
Philadelphia home was relaxed he
appeared there again, boldly riding
up to the, gate in car he had taken
out Of the garage at one Of the
country homes.
In this country there can be no
formal decree Of Outlawry. yet
young BeTgdoll, besides being with
out country, is as much an outlaw
as any man ever was. He may be
sentenced to death II he is cap
tured, for the military law provides
this penalty for his offense in the
5Sth article of war. Under the
draft law, or Section 1852 Of the
Revised Statutes Of the United
States, Bergdoll is declared to he
without all rights of citizenship
and denied the right to ever again
become a citizen. Il is expressly
forbidden that he ever be accorded
public recognition OF any kind as
an hOnOred member Of the society
Of those who once were his country
men.
Sooner or later he and his brother
must be caught. Until they are

Humiliating Failure to Capture the Rich
Slackers Who Flout and Defy the
Laws of the Country Which Showered
Wealth Upon Their Family

particularly upon the Secret Service
of the United States and the agents
of the law in his own city. And be-
cause he has no remorse, no respon-
sibilities to society or to any ma
tiOn's flag. he has given his bitter
ness full rein and, so far, Las inso-
lently defied the whole naticn which
once was his own but which now
has declared him an outlaw from
all nations.
When many young men of Phila-
delphia rushed to the recruiting
offices to volunteer for the first con-
tingent Of the Expeditionary Forces,
during the first months after our
entry into the war, all his friends
believed that Grover Bergdoll would
be one Of those who world not wait
for the draft. They remembered his
record Of daring feats, his defiance
of death itself on dozens of occa-
siOns in his racing car, his aero
plane and in his laboratory dabbling
with the dangerous X-rays-even his
constant defiance Of the law in car
rying out his hazardous escapades.
Here is the stuff of which our
heroes must be made" his friends
said, and waited for the sight of him
In a uniform,
But they waited in vain. Young
Bergdoll did not enlist. Neither
did his younger brother, Erwin, who
had been quite as much a daredevil
in his way as had Grover, but not
quite so spectacular.
Then came the draft law. "The
Bergdoll boys have been waiting"
said their friends, taking new hope
in the midst of their disappoint-
ment, that they might set a
good example to other young men
by submitting themselves to the
draft. They feel they can serve
best by going in the ranks as con-
scripts and thus encouraging the
sons Of poorer families. PerhaDs
that will be their way Of making
up for their ill-advised pranks in
the past"
But again those who knew the
Bergdoll boys we're disappointed.
This time there was no mistaking
the intention Of Grover and his
brother. Both announced publicly
that they would not sumbit to the
draft. When they were reminded
that the draft act was a law of the
land they replied, in effect:
"There is no law for us but our
own desires. We defy the law"
The agents Of the Government
heard this boast. They knew the
Bergdoll boys-especially Grover.
They knew they would heed moth
ing if their whims were set against
it. The draft board peremptorily
ordered both young men to appear
before 1t at once. Erwin, the
younger, simply disappeared. It is
whispered that he drew from the
bank where his inheritance was
kept 100000 in cash and. took this
huge amount of money away with

him. He has been heard from in
various parts Of the world, but
whenever his trail is found he dis
appears again.
Grover, however. had too muct
contempt for his countFy-his coun-
try then! He would not go away so
quietly. He, too, drew 100000 from
his bank, but he made no secrecy
about it. Tie even sent for. a news
paper reporter and announced that
he had fortified himself with a hun
dred thousand dollars and that with
that much money he could get
along very nicely in the world
without a country, If necessary"
Another summons was sent by
the draft board. Grover sent back
an insulting reply, returning un-
opened the envelope in which the
summons was delivered. For months
the agents fof the Secret Service
and the city police sought him. At
the various residences Of his moth
er, the big town house ana tFc
splendid estates out beyond the
suburbs which she maintained as
Summer homes it was denied BY
the mother herself and the servants
that Grover was about
But almost every day someone
reported that BergdOll had been
seen in one of his racing cars
speeding along the beautiful cOuh-
try roads which link the Phila-
delphia suburbs. Many times his
car was pursued by Government
agents-but the Government sup
piled only the ordinary cars of daily
usage. Bergdoll's car had been
made in France for racing-and
he escaped. He waved his hands at
every pursueF and sped away.
Repeatedly the Government agents
thought they had traced him TO
one Of his mothers homes and
rushed in after him But each
time a servant met them at the
door with drawn revolver, demand
ing their search warrant. BY the
time search warrants had been pro
cured the outlaw had flown.
At another time, while rumors.
were many that Bergdoll frequently
was seen-by neighbors through the
windows in the upper floors Of the
town house, Bergdoll openly dared
the Gordon Of police drawn about
the house watching for him One
night, Just after dark, a servant
silently drew back the gates that
led inside the house yard, opening
up the roadway to the garage. The
police were alert at once, statiOning
themselves across the path, ready
to fire upon any car that might
come dashing out il it carried
young Bergdoll at the wheel. But
they were not looking behind. Sud-
denly there was the whirr Of a pow
erful motor-just behind them.
They turned Just in time to leap
aside as a huge racer sped full
speed into the path and through
the, gates into the yard. A seconds
hesitation would have brought
death to any one Of those police
men.
When they recovered them
selves they rushed into the yard
an, beat upon the house doors.
They were admitted and coOlly told
to search the house-but they
could not find the fugitive. When,
crestfallen, the police filed out Of
the house, puzzled but pOweTless,

- famous author, at
tracted the attention of
SS nearly all the world with
his classic story, ''The Man
Without a Country" "a
.man without a country!"
could there be any great

How would a man feel IL
he had no country, no flag,
no kinly bond with his
fellow men, no right to
that ineffable thrill that
surges through the blood
when the military band
marches by, keeping step
to the stirring strains Ola

Yet Hale's man without country

Bergdoll, Of Philadelphia, sharer
nv inheritance of one o. the
greatest fortunes in America, the
fsvorite son of a pampering mother.
Two years ago this young man,
possessor Of millions Of dollars in
HIS own name, was one Of the rich
est youths Of Philadelphia. His
father, the late Louis Bergdoll, had
amassed an immense fortune and
had accumulated q great estate in
city properties. II was commonly
said that "the Bergdolls own half
the Quaker City" And, in those
days, young Bergdoll had country.
Now no mother in the land would
permit her daughter to receive him.
There even is no country in the
world that would harbor him as its
own. Any citizen of the United
States who meets him on the street
may, il he refuses to halt, shoot him
dead.

and slackers, both of them, are out.

mother in Philadelphia, one of the
stateliest mansions in the East, a
ring Of police is constantly on
guard, patiently waiting, night and
day, for just one clear shot at him.
In England, France, Italy - and
South America, even-the authoTi-
ties constantly are on the watch
for him. Wherever he turns there
are only enemies.
No one will sympathize with
him, no one will be his friend. So
he has brought into play all his old,
daring bravado which might have
made him one of the country's
honorable heroes, and has declared
a strange war upon all society -

I'VE the undersigned. a committee
authorized to represent the Greek COM
munity of Pensacola. hereby whole
heartedly endorse and approve the pre-
amble and resolutions passed at gen.
eral mass meeting held at Boston. Mass.
at Mechanics hall on Sunday. Aug. 10.
and respectfully appeal to you as chair
man of the foreign relations commit
tee of the u. S. senate to urge that
Thrace, Macedonia, Epirus, the Dode-
caneseand and all that territory in
Asia Minor which is Greek, should be
annexed to and made part of Greece.
We hold this to be the only fair and
equitable solution which is in accord
with all historical and chronological
facts and with every Christian and
American sense of freedom, justice and
and self determination, and in keeping
with every moral and material inter-
est of the United States in the near
east.
I'VE, therefore. request the foreign
relations committee OF the United
States to take such action in the mat
ter as it may deem wise for a just
settlement of the Greek claims. thus
establishing permanent peace in that
unhappy and hard tried land, which
for four and half centuries has SUI
