City, Report

There have been approximately
800 cases of measles in Salem
since the first of the year, but at
the present time there are prob
ably less than 100 persons here sf-
flicted with the disease. This num-
ber is steadily decreasing, DR. r.
E. Pomeroy, city physician, stated
this morning. The schools will not
be closed by the epidemic, it YVES
said.
''If we can just get teachers,
pupils and parents to cooperate.
we will have little trouble in
stamping it out entirely" Df.
Pomeroy said. "As soon as Child
is bothered with coughing, he
should be taken home. and should
be made to stay indoors for at least
five days.
"As an example, a little girl was
brought to me the other day. Her
parents thought her eyes were
strained, for they had given her
some trouble. She had not even
begun to cough yet, but l was con
vinced she was coming down with
the measles. ordered her to stay
inside. Later she began to cough,
and subsequently she took down
with the measles. Had she been
permitted to go on to school doz-
ems of children would have been ex
posed to the disease"
DIR. Pomeroy is convinced that
the epidemic is well under control
and that it will soon be thing of
the past.

Harding
Series of Conferences
Held Between Best
Minds and Chief
Executive

Washington, April 2.-Inter-
est in the administration atti-
tude towards the general subject
of a peace settlement, revived by
the visit here of former Premier
Viviani of France, was further
intensified today by a series of
conferences which had every out
ward appearance of embracing a
general discussion to prepare ad-
ministration officials for a decis-
ion on such subjects as a sepa-
rate peace resolution and an
amended league of nations.
Conferees Silent
All of those who took part In
the conferences we're reticent
and the inferences attached to
them necessarily were largely con-
jectural.
The days development center
ed about the white house and
state department leaving M. vi
viani for the moment in the back
ground. 1t was indicated, how
ever, the progress might have a
logical sequence to suggestions
brought here by the former Fren IN
premier.
Harvey is Caller =
One of the first callers at the
white house today was Colonel
George Harvey of New York, Sc,
lected for ambassador to Great
Britain. After a half hour with
the president, Co;onel Harvey
had a conference with Secretary
Hughes at the state department.
The official explanation of the
conferences was that the colonel
had called for additional instruc-
tions regarding his mission,
which, of course, will bring him
into more or less direct contact
with the league question.
Senator Knox of Pennsylvania,
author of the separate peace res
olution vetoed by President Will
son, also was on President Hard
ing's list of callers today, as was
Stephane Lauzanne, French
journalist. Mr.. Lauzanne's opin-
ions on European affairs were
quoted frequently in this cuun-
try during the presidential cam
paign. HIS visit to the white house
at the request of the French am
bassodar, Jules ]. Jusserand, was
officially explained as a formal
call to pay his respects to the
president.
Still another on the white
house engagement list was Myron
7. Herrick of Ohio, understood to
be under serious consideration for
ambassador to France. Mr.. Her
rick held that post in the early
days Of the European war and
last summer familiarized himself
with recent developments by a
visit to Europe during which he
conferred with many British and
French statesmen.

SivertOn Suit
Decided; Court
Favors EnGcOtt

Stating that the defendant had
no right to the lumber machinery
involved Judge Bingham handed
down his decree in the case of S.
M. Endicott against N. Digerness
Of Silverton this morning.
According to the complaint, Mr..
Digerness sold on contract the
mill some time ago to Brown, Com
stock & Aim of Silverton. The en-
terpris did not prove a financial
success and the First National
Bank Of Silverton attached the
lumber which had cut to recover
money loaned on a note due.
Endicott got possession of the
mill, but because of the failure of
the former owners to meet the
conditions of the contract, Diger-
ness thought he had some claim to
the property. The suit was insti-
tuted by Endicott to clear up the
title.

This became known here this
morning when Inspector Rafferty,
sought the cooperation of local
officers in curbing the activities
of those Oregon drivers who are
characterized as indifferent" and
who are said to be trying to just
"get by" rather than to cooper
ate with the officials in matters
having to do with the automobile
laws. The move is backed by Sec
retary of State Kozer.
Marning May Be Secuted
Speeding, corner-cutting, the
operation of mufflers, license
plates, the position of tail lights
and the "dimming" of headlights
will be among the items which
will warrant close attention from
the combined forces of Inspector
Rafferty, and Chief Moffitt. Seven
or eight officers will be on duty,
day and night in various parts of
the city, and scores Of arrests are
expected.
I'VE really don't expect this
warning to do much good" In
spector Rafferty, explained this
morning. 1T will probably be the
same old story. Motorists will
console Themselves with the
thought that this is just another
warning and that nothing will
really be done after all. But
we're going to fool them. We are
giving them a fair chance, how
ever"
Pendleton Results Gratifying
Inspector Rafferty, and his depu-
ties have just arrived from Pen
dleton where they spent four days
cleaning up" Ordinance-break-
ing autoists were taken into po-
lice court by the dozen in the
roundup city, and among them,
it was stated, was the city police
commissioner, who paid his fine
along with the others.
"The results in Pendleton were
so gratifying that the Cleanup
system has been rnaugurated for
the entire state" Inspector Raj
ferty told Chief Moffitt this morn
ing. 'In Pendleton we warned
them that we were going out
but they apparently
believe it," |
Accidents, caused by speeding, |
glaring headlights, lack of lights |
and carelessness are becoming in
creasingly alarming, 1t is pointed !
out, and state officers, headed by |
secretary of State Kozer have de-
.5rmined that drastic action must |
Z taken to curb the menace in it's
Tdrious forms.
Officers will be stationed on |
hose thoroughfares where speed
ng and accidents have been most |
,0mmon, and there will be police
men in the downtown districts in /
structed to be unusually vigilant |
IN the matter of traffic ordinance
Il really don't expect Salem
to take this warning
very seriously" Chief Moffitt
said, so April will likely be a
