FNGINEER INVESTIGATES
TELEPHONE SITUATION
pa,resentative of Public Service
commission Surveys Entire Sys-
tem-Report Expected Soon

C. V. Angove, assistant engineer
for the state public service commits
sion. Tuesday afternoon completed
full survey of the local telephone
situation. both inside the city and
on the various farmers lines, and
will prepare detailed report on his
findings to submit to the commits
sion. 1t is expected that copies of
fine report will be submitted to the
Inland Telephone company and the
chamber of commerce within the
next three weeks.
While Mr.. Angove could make no
official statement as to his findings
prior to leaving Pullman Tuesday at
ternoon, he intimated that his report
would suggest improvements in GER
tam features of the service and stat
cd that the farmers interviewed all
expressed a desire to cooperate with
the company in effecting these need
ed improvements. The commission,
he stated, has no official jurisdiction
over the farmers lines, and the re-
mott can only suggest such changes
in these lines as his investigation in
dicates are needed, with no power to
order the improvements made.
The telephone company also
showed an inclination to do any
thing within it's power to improve
the service and provision has already
been made for several improvements,
Mr.. Angove stated, which will result
in some inconvenience to the patrons
Of the company while the work is be-
ing done, but the results obtained
will fully compensate for this dis
turbance.
The investigation of the public
service commission official was the
result of difficulties between the Of
ficers Of the telephone company and
the patrons of the farmers lines. The
farmers claimed that the alleged
poor service on their lines was the
result of inefficiency and inadequacy
in the local station, while the Off
Gals of the company maintained that
the inefficient service was due to
the fact that the farmers do not keep
their lines and instruments in repair.
The public service commission was
asked to arbitrate the question, all
those concerned agreeing to this
method of solution, and the visit of
Mr.. Angove resulted. The report of
his findings will be awaited with
much interest and is expected to pro-
vide the means for the amicable set
tlement of the difficulties between
The company and the farmers. which
have existed for several years.

SPLENDID CONCERT
BY MRS. STRONG HART
Will BE Given This Evening at the
Methodist Church for Benefit of
Community Memorial Building

Pullman people will have a rare
opportunity this evening to hear
beautiful voice, to show their appre-
citation of a talented and popular
Pullman girl and to prove their in
terest in the Community Memorial
building, by attending the recital by
Vivian Strong Hart at the Methodist
church.
Mrs. Hart won an ovation at the
recital which she gave last week at
chapel in the college auditorium, and
her hosts of friends were surprised
and delighted by the marked develop
ment and improvement Of her voice
during the past few months, and felt
that she fully merits the many press
eulogies which she has received, of
which the following are TYPICAL
Mrs. Vivian Strong Harris inter

her in the Coliseum, and wondered

not disappointed. - Seattle Town

Mrs. Vivian Strong Hart, the
dainty songrstress, whose piquant
charm and gifts of voice and art won
her firm place in Tacoma on the
occasion of her first appearance here
last winter, received warm welcome
as she tripped forward, dainty little
figure in pink and white, to give her
first group of songs. Mrs, Hart is an
artist of no small ealibre, though she
looks like a huge French doll, ana
her lovely, fresh voice purls forth
with no apparent effort, giving diff
cult arias with brilliant coloratura
demands, or songs which call FOR
deeper interpretatiye effects, with
such ease and finish as to be wholly
delightful. The famous Shadow
song from Dinorah, and a varied Sc
lection of songs in different MOODS
were all sung with true artlsIlc 81,

LEAGUE DISCUSSES
MONROE DOCTRINE
Leaders, Fearing Serious Break, Make
Vain Attempt to Keep SUBJ
ject From the Floor.
(ey The AssocIated Pressl


GENEVA, Sept. THE Monroe
doctrine and the competency of the
League Of Nations in American ques-
tions and in cases where one party
to a treaty asks intervention to secure
revision were the principal subjects
Of discussion in and out of the as
sembly Of the league today. The dis
cussion were provoked by the demand
Of Bolivia that the assembly put on
the agenda the proposed revision OF
the treaty of 1904 between Chile and
Bolivia whereby the latter coded to
Chile the provinces Of Tacna and
africa. The debate began at the morn
ing session of the assembly despite all
efforts to keep the subject off the moor
by the league leaders, who feared that
a serious. situation might be created
by such a debate. A canvass OF the
principal delegations shows that
majority Of the assembly Is against
establishing a precedent that the
league may interfere to revise treaties,
particularly treaties OF peace.
AT the same time there is a strong
feeling that it is dangerous for the
prestige of the league not to be able
to consider questions such as raised
by Bolivia in which there are features
If the case that in the opinion Of some
Of the delegates would seem to justify
arbitration.
Besides most of the delegates are
disfnclined to welcome at this time
a debate in which the Monroe doctrine
is invoked in a manner which virtual
w calls for an Interpretation Of the
leagues competency in matters sup
posed to be covered by that doctrine.
Aueustin Edwards, representing
Chile argued that Tacna-Arica was
purely an American affair and that
the Monroe doctrine applied in no
sense to European states, nor could
the League of Nations interfere in
such a matter.
Senior Aramayo, for Bolivia In
formed The Associated Press that the
chancellery of the United States had
been consulted regarding Bolivia's APP
plication to the league before 1t was
submitted and had decided that medi-
alton by the league was not incom-
patibIe with the Monroe doctrine.
Arthur ]. Balfour, of Great Britain,
Lord Robert Cecil. who represents
South Africa. and President Van
Karnebeek, failed to keep the debate
OF the floor; they succeeded only in
securing the consent of the Bolivian
and Chilean delegations to let the mat
ter rest after the presentation Of their
cases until the delegations should be
able to study the documents. The
question will come up again, unless
Bolivia withdraws its request.

COTTON SUFFERED
FROM ONSLAUGHT
Cotton Reached a High Tide OF % Cents
But Closed at 1918 Owing TO
Furious 5uckInp.
tsy The AssoeIated Preasl

NEW YORK, Sept THE cotton mar
ket collapsed today after furious open
ing in which futures showed advances Of
100 to 172 points, some soaring as high as
18s points above yesterdays close The
violent break sent prices down two hun
bred points, the limit permitted for any
one days fluctuations. The close was
weak with the lowest prices of the day,
October finishing at 1880 and january at
1875.
The break came after quotations cross
ed Fl cents a pound for all months and
exceeded % cents for distanct deliveries
The rise was attributed partly to another
sensational Liverpool advance. The drop
started when 1t became apparent that big
interests, which had bought at much
lower figures, were letting go of their
cotton. Prices crumpled under the strain
Of large offerings in the last hour until
the trading limits were reached.
The fan gave the market the UNIQUE
experience of having reached the 200
point limit in two consecutive days, the
upside yesterday and downside today.
There was no change In the news on
account of the break 1t was simply a
case of an overbought condition.

DEADLOCK EXISTS
MEXICAN QUESTION
Officials Believe There Is Hidden Mo-
tive Behind Refusal to Sign ]
Commerce Treaty.
fnx The AsaocIated Pre..l


MEXICO CITY, Sept. Although
an empasse apparently exists between
the Mexican and United States gov
ernments on the question Of recognf-
ton of Mexico, due to the Mexican
governments refusal to sign a treaty
Of anity and commerce as a prior act,
expressions of the belief are general
in Mexico City that something is go
ing on behind the scenes in an attempt
to break the deadlock, but at the same
time to place neither nation in the
light Of receding from its original po-
sition.
The local newspapers quoting both
American and Mexican sources, assert
that a new basis for an interchange
of ideas between George T. Summer
lin, the American charge d'affairs, and
Senior PAM. the Mexican foreign sec
rotary, is being established although
nothing has been given out in Off
cia1 quarters which would clear up the
situation.
] Mr.. Summerlin, denying announce
ments in this mornings newspapers
that he had received istructions from
Secretary Hughes to take up the mat
ter Of the recognition of Mexico along
new lines, told The Associated Press
today that so far as he was concerned
the question Of recognition remained
where it had been, and that he had
made no representations to the foreign
office here.
Much is being made by political OBJ
servers Of the events of the past the
days-the decision Of the supreme
court as it affects oil, and the confer
ence between American oil men and
Mexican officials. The supreme court S
decision, which is construed here as
positively defining article 81 of the
constitution as non retroactive has not
been formally published. It is under
stood that the decision has not as vet
been placed in writing, although the
ruling of the court was handed down
August 80.
heads of five oil companies is expect
ed here to result shotly in the pub
lication of the detailed terms of the
agreement between the oil men and
/ the Mexican government officials,
which is construed as containing ele-
ments which will contribute to a
speedy clearing up of the International
situation. Local newspapers persist in
expressions of the belief that some
thing more than taxes was discussed
during the week of oil conferences,
and that the heads of the American oil
companies will make some definite
thing more than taxes was talked of

ment at Washington.

This appeal was contained in a res
olution adopted at a convention of the

charged in an address that the Ger

members OF congress and that Ger
man agents were once more plotting
