SHOE MACHINE
CONTRACTS NOT
LEGAL, OPINION

Washington, April 17.--The
government today won in the SUI
preme court In the case brought
by the United Shoe Machinery cor
poration and others to have set
aside the restraining order pro-
hibiting them from using certain
lease clauses in their contracts for
the rental OF patented machin-
cry.
The supreme court affirmed the
decree of the United States district
court at st. Louis, which enjoin-
ed the corporation, under the
Clayton act.
The federal court prohibited
the corporation from compelling
by lease agreements, the exclusive
use Of tis machines, and from en-
forcing an alternative royalty
clause, found to be prohibitive
upon all footwear manufactured
in factories where machines Of
competitors also we're used. 1t also
held invalid the agreement b,
which the corporation required
those using its machines to pur-
chase supplies of 1t.
Justice McKenna dissented but
did not express his views. Justice
Brandeis took no part in the con.
sideration Of the case.

Is Cents Hourly
Not Enough Pay
Salem Men Say

If Salem IS capital and labor
could just set together there
would be jobs for everybody, ac-
cording to Police Judge Earl Race
whose free labor agency throws
him in close touch with local con-
ditipns.
AS it is, however, there are yet
men out of work in Salem, Judge
Race said today. They feel that
employers are not offering enough
money.
Certain hop men, seeking work
ers, are offering 25 cents an hour
for a 10-hour day, Judge Race
said. Salem folk, who have odd
Jobs, are paying from 80 cents te
SO cents an hour.
"On these odd-jobs," the labor
|er points out, sometimes an houl
is spent in going to the scene Of
the work, making preparations
and SO forth. "The job may las
an hour. 1t is, plainly, not very
profitable
With the coming of better
weather jobs will be plentiful Ia
Salem, Judge Race believes.

Filing fees paid lin by aspirants
to primary honors and fees paid
in for space in the official voters
pamphlet aggregate $11,535 ac-
cording to statement by Secre-
tary of State Kozer this morning.
This is only $540 less than the

national convention honors and
presidential candidates clamorHng
for space in the pamphlet.
A total Of 5000 filing fees was
con tributed by the 229 republican
candidates who filed their decla-
ration of political intentions and
the 81 democrats who aspire tt
public office contributed a total
of $500 for the privilege of get
ting their names on the primary
ballot.
Ninety two republican candi-
dates have purchased space in the
official pamphlet at an aggregate
cost of $3665 whereas only five
democrats are using this medium
of publicity at an aggregate out
lay of $500. Eighteen pamphlets
will be required to accommodate
the publicity seeking candidates
While the exact number OF copies
to be printed can not be determin-
ed until registrations cease 1T is
expected that the number will ex-
ceed 100000. The filing fees paid
in for space in the pamphlet ara
expected to cover the cost OF print
ing and mailing. The work of ed
iting, printing, binding and dis
tributing these pamphlets is al
ready under way. The law re-
quires that all pamphlets be mall
ed not later than eight days be-
fore the primaries.

MARK
TIME AT GENOA

Genoa, April 17.-(By Associ-
atedM Press.) - Easter Monday
found the economic conference
marking time. George Chitcherin,
head of the Russian delegation,
had telegraphed to Moscow for In
structions.
Leading allied spokesmen said
today it would be an exaggeration
to refer to the situation, as some
European newspapers have done,
as being a deaiock. Moreover,
they said, 1t would be inexaet to
affirm that the allies had present.
ed an ultimatum to the soviet
delegates. The Russians they said
merely were asked to speed up
their answers to various points,
particularly concerning the ques-
tion of pre-war debts.
1t was pointed out today that II
the broad lines of Russian settle
ment could be informally agreed
upon by the leaders by the end Of
this week. then the conference
would have accomplished the
greatest object for which 1t was
called, namely a practical ar
rangement with Russia.

The assault from which the ex-
citement developed occurred

He was struck on the head and
robbed of 500 which he said he

PURSE SE|N LAW
| DECLARED VALID

Portland, Ore, April 1.-THE
Oregon law prohibiting the pos
session or sale of salmon caught
in purse seines was upheld today
by Federal Judge Bean in the suit
by George Zurich and other lower
Columbia river fishermen against
master fish Warden Carl d. Shoe
maker.
The court held that the state
LEGISLATURE was within its rights
in enacting the law at the last
session, declaring the game and
fish of a state belong to the peo-
pie and are not subject to private
ownership except so far as the
people may elect to make them so.
The court rejected the conten-
tfou that the law was invalid be-
cause II prevented possession OF
salmon taken outside the three
mile limit. over which the state
had no jurisdiction.
The decision also declared the
new law did NOT conflict with the
compact between Oregon and
Washington regarding fishing in
the Columbia river. as the com
pact had no reference to fish TAX
en- outside the jurisdiction Of eth
er state.

Genoa, What?
Experts Expect Two
More Conferences

financier; Professor Gustav Cas-
sell, Swedish economist, and other
experts at Genoa, apparently are
agreed that summoning of a dis
armament conference is a neces-
sary step before successful H.
nancial or economic conference is
possible as lessened military ex-
penses are imperative before loans
can be floated on a large scale.
The United States and Germany
probably would not participate in
this, as Germany already is dis
armed under the terms of the Yer
sailles treaty, and the United
States is not directly concerned
with European army affairs.
AS the chances for recognition
of the soviet by the European
powers becomes brighter, the in
terest in Americas attitude to-
ward Russia increases and the del
egates are asking the Americans
in Genoa how long the United
States will hold aloof POLITICALLY
from the Moscow government,
which it is helping SO generously
with food.

LONG DISTANCE
PHONE SERVICE
IMPROVED HERE

With a view to rendering more
efficient it's long distance depart
ment, the Pacific Telephone 4
Telegraph company has installed
a new pole line between Jefferson
and Salem, 23S miles of copper
wire has been added between
Portland and Albany, and the long
distance lines between Eugene,
Albany. Salem and Portland have
been re-arranged, according to w.
II. Dancy, Salem manager OF the
company. The work was done at
a total cost of $13S,000 and its
completion means a great deal Tor
the long distance service OF all
the Willamette valley towns as far
south as Eugene, according to Mr..
Dancy.
"rhe increased use of long dis
tance lines has resulted in con-
gestion during the busy hours TO
such an extent that many calls
could not be completed as prompt
ly as we desired" Mr.. Dancy ex-
planned.
Realizing this condition we
have made the necessary traffic
and engineering studies and have
regrouped and increased our toll
plant So as to produce the greatest
possible efficiency in the handling
of the traffic. The new plant will
be placed in service today and we
believe will be ample to take care
of all toll requirements of this sec
tion promptly for some time to
come"
The reconstruction work has
been under way for more than a
year. In connection with the pro
iect a main camp was established
between Salem and Jefferson
which was a model of what an
up-to-date construction camp
should be. In addition to the usual
features which might be expected,
such a sleeping quarters and a
dining room, there was shower
bath. an amusement hail ana a
garage as part of the camp
equipment.

WOERNDLE IS
TO RETAIN HIS
CITIZENSHIP
Former Austrian Consul
Not To Lose Papers for
Allowing Hans Boehm
To Utilize Passport.

Portland, Or, April 17.-Joseph
Woerndle, former Austrian con-
sui here, will retain his American
citizenship as a result Of decis-
ion announced today by Federal
Judge R. S. Bean in the proceed
ings instituted by the government
for cancellation on the ground
that Waerndle had permitted
Hans Boehm, German spy, to use
his passports before the United
States entered the world war.
Fraud Not Evident.
There is no evidence to show
that Woerndle made fraudulent
reservation of fidelity to America
when he took out his naturaliza-
tion papers," said Judge Bean,
''The same may apply to the pri-
vate letters he wrote to his rela-
tives abroad. These letters were
written before the United States
entered the war and while his ma
tive land was hard pressed by its
enemies. There is evidence to show
that Woerndle knew Hans Boehm,
German spy, would use Woerndle's
passport to return to Germany to
fight"
1t was matter Of common
knowledge, the Judge said, that be-
fore the United States entered the
war many naturaiized citizens
sympathized with their mother
land.
Passport Used Not Crime.
Concerning the passport used
by Boehm, Judge Beans decision
says:
"In obtaining a passport in his
name for use by Boehm and in al
lowing Boehm to use such pass
port and to assume and travel un-
der his, defendants name, in order
that he might pass the allied lines
and return to Germany and join
the German forces, defendants
conduct is, of course, indefensible;
but there Is no evidence that he
knew the passport was to be used,
in fact, used for any other purpose
and his action in reference there
to is not sufficient to show a
fraudulent reservation of fidelity
at the time of his admission to
citizenship ten years before"
