Why Not?

Editor Glacier: The governor ap-
pointed a committee of three as per a
resolution Of the recent legislature to
investigate and report additional
sources of taxation so that the 1923
legislature would have some place to
get more money to run the great state
of Oregon. Along comes VIM. l.. Fin
ley, known to most nature lovers, in
an open letter to the governor and sug-
gests that the state raise some money
from the fishing industry. The salmon
pack for 1920 totaled over $l2, 600, 600.
The last legislature appropriated S9l, =
300 of the taxpayers money to raise
more fish for the salmon packers to
pack. The state collected over $50, 900
in anglers licenses, which money goes
to the state hatchery fund, according
to Mr.. Finley, also to raise more fish
for the commercial interests.
The United States government col
lects $l2. 500 a year from the Columbia
River Packers Association for seining
off Sand Island near the
mouth of the Columbia river. The
state of Minnesota collected $l05, 600
from commercial fishermen who Sc
cured from the waters of that state
carp and other trash fish which the
fishermen sold for $275, 600.
What kind of business are the people
of Oregon in that they can afford to
raise $3.50, 600 from the taxpayers in
order to subsidize the salmon packers
Of the state of Oregon? What is the
used on the legislature that
the salmon packers are entitled to this
money at the expense of the rest of

WAGON LICENSE UP
TO SUPREME COURT

Because of the agitation over local
Portland truck delivery licensing, the
following dispatch to the Oregonian
from Oregon City, appearing last
week, will be of interest here:
The supreme court will be asked to
decide whether the Oregon City ordi-
nance known as the vehicle ordinance,
passed last month, and putting a Ii
cense of $40 a month vehicle on de-
livery cars and trucks delivering goods
to Oregon City merchants from outside
points, is legal. About 80 Portland job
bers and manufacturers who deliver
their products to Oregon City met yes
terday afternoon in the Chamber of
Commerce rooms to discuss ways and
means of combating the ordinance, and
decided to lay the matter before the
supreme court. The meeting was pre-
sided over by J. W. Vogan, of the
Vogan Candy Company.
A number of methods of retaliation
were proposed by those in attendance,
among them a proposal that the city
council be asked to pass an ordinance
putting a tax on Clackamas county
farmers who sell their produce to the
Portland markets. The suggestions re-
ceived will be held in allegiance and for
until the supreme court
renders decision on the Oregon City
vehicle license.

the best in the Northwest.
Last Thursday the Glacier man was
driven to the boat landing by George
c. GLADDEN. of the Mt. Hood Motor Co.
A new Nash was taken for a trial trip
across the river. All agreed that the
new boat was capable of handling the
traffic between the Columbia River
Highway and the North Bank, traffic
that is growing heavier every day.
Mr.. Van Allen is pilot of the new
boat. He is proud of it. Since put
ting the Cleona in commission he says
he wonders how he ever handled traffic
with the old Panama
The Cleona is of a size that gives
the passenger sense of utmost secur-
ity. The windiest day on the Columbia
doesn't cause her any worry. She is
equipped with a huge 80 II. p. semi
Deisel engine, which burns crude oil.
The powerful motor chugs steadily
ahead, and doesn't change her tune in
the least, even though a wave sub
merges the paddles. The boat is Sc
feet from stem to stern. She meas
ures 22 feet, inside measurement, from
star board to larboard.
The Cleona is equipped with electric
lights. She is double ended, and no
matter which way she is travelling,
she is going straight ahead. The boat
has carried IL big automobiles and two
saddle horses at single load. While |
the owners were designers of the new
craft, she was built by A. S. Sheplar,
formerly one Of the owners of the
ferry system, who has made a name |
for himself as a ferry boat builder,
having built the Panama, which the
Cleona succeeds, and other craft.
The new boat is equipped with cleo
trio lights, generated by the big motor.

MIR. Cannon Breaks Rib

City School Superintendent Cannon
sustained a broken rib last week in a
peculiar manner. Mr.. Cannon, mounted
on a stepladder, was engaged in prun-
ing a mulberry tree, using set of
large hand pruners.
Mr.. Cannon had tried vainly to cut
off a large branch. Finally he placed
one handle of the pruning shears
against the tree trunk and grasped the
other with both hands, exerting his
full force on the tug. When the limb
was severedsthe end of the handle was
plunged into his left side.
81 do not think one of Jack Demp-
sey's blows could have been much
worse, says Mr.. Cannon, who is
forced to wear his torso in cast as
result of the accident.

Disarmament Parade
By 5000 Women
(By Federated Press)

New York-F'ive thousand women,
many of them from other states and
scores from Mexico, Canada, Japan,
China and other nations, marched up
Fifth Avenue with banners and floats
demanding for immediate and COM
plete disarmament. In contrast to the
Armistice Day parades here, they
marched with banners instead of rifles
and the other accoutrements of war
and death.
1t was an impressive demonstration
to emphasize the demand of women
of every race and of every station in
life for the abolition of war as against
mere curtailment of the immediate
preparations for war. The parade
was under the auspices of the Wom-
ems Peace Society and the Women's
Peace Union of the Western Hemis-
phere. Dozens of organizations par
ticipated.
Hundreds of Quakers, in quaint
Quaker costumes, came from Phila-
delphia to take part in the demonstra-
tion.
Three of the placards said: "If
you don't end war it will end you";
"What we spend for war we take
from our children" and eff the con-
ference fails it will be your fault.
Stop the next war now."

Striking a Natural Right
Which Existed Prior to State Itself
Says Cardinal O'COnneIl

Boston-The strike is a natural
right; it is a mans natural defense;
it existed prior to the state itself and
is right which no society can annul,
said Cardinal O'Connell, Of this city,
in a pastoral letter.
The reasoning of this churchman is
q contrast with the claim of "can't-
strike" advocates, that strikes should
be outlawed when they inconvenience
the public-or, in other woyds, that a
right can be set aside when it dis
commodes society; and that the state,
created by man, can deny rights in
he1ent in man.
ct is a natural right of man to
give or withhold his labor" said the
cardinal. at is mans defense agains;
injury and oppression. Mans right
to strike is then a natural tight.
"a strike is not war, save fgura
lively, hut like war 1t should be con-
sidered a last resort.
"1 he state has the right to suppress
a civil war, but strike should never
be civil war. Some times incidental
to strike, but not at all necessary,
and greatly to be deplored by true
friends of labor, are intimidation, dis
order, riot and violence. A strike OF
itself Goes not imply any disturbance
Of the peace.
"Strikes are called more frequently
on account of failure to pay a just
wage than for any other leasor. If
employers would recognize mans
right to a just wage, another great
mile ST one Of progress toward indus
trial peace would be passed.
"I here is plenty to go round in this
rich country of ours.
"rhe state should always maintain
discipline, but the state has no right
10 prohibit a just strike.
",rhe evils and abuses of the present
industrial system cannot be too
strongly deplored. The aioofness Of
the employer from the worker, the
concentration of wealth in the hands
of the few, the oppression Of the work
er are abuses which, while not uni
versal, are altogether too common
Stories of excessive profits and low
wages, of heartless smissals, or in
human disregard of labor, are dis
grace to our democratic state.
"We must not look upon labor as
merely the expenditure of muscle or
intellectual energy, or as a commodity
to be bought and sold. There is a
moral element which must be consid~
cred. Man is not an irresponsible ma
cshine."

Private Interests Want
Rail Roads in Alaska
(By Federated Press)

Washington-Sale of the Govern
ment's railroad in Alaska to private
interests, just as it is about to be
completed and opened to through
traffic which will break the private
monopoly on traffic to the Yukon
Valley, is advocated by Secretary of
the Interior Fall.
This is the first move made by Fall
to destroy the Alaska conservation
program which overthrew the rule of
the Guggenheims in that territory.
Senator New of Indiana is in charge
Of a bill in Congress which opens the
way to the Guggenheim restoration
by placing all of Alaska's national
interests in the hands of a bureau
under the Interior Department.
Beside grabbing the railroads, the
Guggenheim and allied interests seek
to get control of the vast national
forest resources in Alaska. The bill
provides that these forests shall be
transferred from the Bureau of
Forestry, which is in the Department
of Agriculture, to the Interior Depart
ment.

Not Busted" Yet
CHICAGO CARPENTERS UNION
VICTORIOUS
to Disrupt the Organization
a Failure-Ultimatu of Judge
Landis Not Observed by
District Council
(By Federated Pressl

Chicago-The way of the union
buster is hard in the building trades
industry Of Chicago. Many months
ago The Federated Press chronicled
the failure of a down-state senator,
Daley by name, to disrupt local build
ing trades unions by revelations" Of
criminal conspiracy between unions,
notably the Carpenters District
Council, and contractors. Dailey's
legislative commission got much pub
licity and a few indictments, but the
union did not suffer.
With a great flourish Of headlines
Federal Judge Kenesaw Mountain
Lands was named arbitrator and a
speedy settlement of the Shameful
conditions" in the building trades was
promised. The carpenters, $4,000
strong, refused to have anything to
do with Landis and his arbitration" ="
Those officers of the Building Trades
Council who accepted the Lands an
bitration were applauded and the early
demise of the Carpenters District
Council predicted In August the
Landis award slashing wages, break
ing down standards won through years
of collective bargaining, and abolish
ing working rules which even the con-
tractors assured Lands were desir-
able, was handed down.
The SOS. for bankers to put out
of business contractors who dealt with
the recalcitrant unions by refusing to
loan money unless building operations
were conducted as Landis dictated
followed. Next came the story of the
formation of a "Citizen's Committee"
CT manufacturers, merchants, law
yers, architects, and others with an
anti-union record, to rally public
opinion" the money power and other
forces likely to stimulate the morale
of contractors fighting the unions.
The committee announced that it
will put out Of business contractors
who persist in paying more than
Lands prescribed or observing the old
working rules. Private builders,
architects, material dealers and money
lenders who do not conform to the
rules of this self-constituted regulat
ing body of the building industry will
also be "cleand up" according to the
speakers.
President Harry Jensen of the Car
penters' District Council, whose men,
bership has from the first refused to
permit Landis or the committee to
interfere in its dealings with con-
tractors, says all of those pronounce
ments are bluff. "Ninety per cent of
our members are at work at the $1.25
an hour scale and no one thinks. of
working for less," says Jensen.
"The committees boast that it has
put 1,200 carpenters, some of them
union men from Detroit, is nonsense.
They have picked up about 400 roust-
abouts, most of whom have never
handled tools and none Of whom are
union men. They can't get good me-
chanics and they are desperate"
Well Informed unionists say that
the carpenters, painters and other
trades are going to demand a show
down in the Building Trades Council
on the matter of working with scabs
Should the council vote to obey Landis'
mandate and work under police pro-
lection with imported non-union men,
the unions which oppose Landis' con-
ditions are expected to withdraw
from the council.

RANDALL PARRISH

One of the most popular, most in
dustrious and typically American
writer's of the day, is Randall Parrish.
He deals largely in plots of romance,
mystery and adventure. Frequently
the setting is in the West, but not
always. His latest story "The Mys-
terry of the Silver Dagger" is laid in
the East and introduces new char
acters and incidents. One of it's un-
usual angles is the mystery with
which he surrounds the principal
female participant. You do not dis
cover until the final chapter whether
she is dangerous criminal, foreign
plotter, a secret service agent or just
a normal, sweet American girl acting
from high sense of duty. Such un-
certainty adds to the charm Of the
narrative. It will be offered soon as
a serial in these columns. Be sure
