COMMENCEMENT
EXERCISES MAY
Be GIVEN HERE

AS result of new plan pro-
posed by Marion county school
officials, commencement exercises
for eighth grade graduates Of
schools in rural communities may
in the future be held in Salem.
I'm view of the fact that many
eighth grade pupils who pass the
examination and earn diplomas
are situated so that no public
recognition or appreciation OF
their work can be made when
their diplomas are sent to them,
the teachers present at the local
institute held recently at Wood
burn voted In favor Of a county
graduation day." Mrs. Mary Fulk-
erson, county superintendent, ex-
planned today.
The plan, Mrs. Fulkerson said,
Is to have these pupils come to
Salem on a set date and receive
their diplomas at a public meeting.
1--WE expect to have a suitable
program and hope that many
school will avail themselves of the
opportunity" she said.
Mrs. Fulkerson today addressed
letters to teachers of all county
schools in which she requests q
reply relative to the teachers at
titude on the proposal. ''If you
desire to hold local exercises you
are at liberty to do so, but we
gladly welcome all who can come
and share In the honor of Marion
county," her letter stated.
"Please talk this over with your
class and let me know at once II
they wish to come so that may
secure a suitable building for the
occasion"
The date on which the exercises
will be held will be announced
later, Mrs. Fulkerson said.

ber IL, 1921, the day OF the al

Max Steuer, chief defense coun-
sol also set forth that the two

mentioned in connection with the
case had been rented by Rickard
while he was arranging the Demp-
sy-Willard fight in Toledo, to
store his liquor, because he saw
prohibition coming.

Richard, Steuer said, never had
been in the suites in his life, and
bad gone to the apartment houses
themselves only twice to ascertain
from the janitor that his cellars

Richards counsel denied that

according to the story told by the
girls. Although Rickard never

FOR.
HIGHER WAGE.
CALLED BLUFF.
Shipments Request For
Pay Increase Termed
Strategic Move to De-
feat Pay Cuts

Chicago, March 24.-Counter
requests for wage increases by
railroad shopmen at o time when
railroads were asking reductions
were characterized as a strategic
move "coldly calculated to inter
fere with and delay" new wage
agreement by J. w. Higgins, rep
resenting western roads, before
the railroad labor board today.
Mr.. Higgins made the closing
argument against the employees
charges, preferred by B. M. Jewell,
head of the shop crafts unions,
that the roads had not held prop
er conferences with employees un-
der the transportation act prior to
bringing their wage cut requests
to the board.
Says Charges Unfair.
Mr.. Higgins declared the
charges unfair and unsupported"
and scored the unions for asking
wage increases, 'in the face of the
fact that the lapor board recog-
nized q downward trend of wages
in its wage reduction order Of
July, 1921, and in spite of the
continued downward trend since
that date"
Knowing these conditions and
also recognizing as l do the keen
discernment Of the leaders on the
other side, can we reason that
such an extravagant request was
made on the ground of justice or
reason?" Mr.. Higgins said. Keep
ing in mind these conditions,
there is no escape from the con-
clusion that the Inauguration of
this program for a wage increase
was to checkmate the proposed de-
creases of the railroads by re-
questing such abnormal increases
as to make any sort of an agree
ment impossible.
Holds Contention Proven.
Il hold that we have proved
that their plan was coldly cal
culated to interfere with and de-
lay the decision in this case. From
their viewpoint, it was good STRAIT
egy because SO far as l know, no
wage decrease has yet been made
retroactive"
Mr.. Higgins then quoted por-
tions of Mr.. JEWELS letter of in
structions to shop crafts repre-
sentatives and asked if these in
structions were not given to de-
lay meeting the railroads on the
merits Of the proposed decreases
inject into the wage conference
demands for abnormal increases,
and to insist on these increases
being discussed to force disagree
ments.
Mr.. JEWELS allegation that
the railroad officers were without
authority to negotiate wage rate,
Mr.. Higgins said, "is wholly imag-
mary"
