CREATOR OF
GOLD GULCH"
QUITS PLACE.

SAN DIEGO. Calf. July 18. U2
Scoring exposition officials for
allowing cheap concessions" to be
placed in cold Gulch," Harry Oil
yer, noted film set designer and
creator-manager of the colorful
"Forty-Niner" mining camp at the
Pacific international exposition,
handed in his resignation today.
Oliver who recently falsely was
reported picked up" in a raid"
on shows in the gulch, declared a
tearing down process, brought
about by cheap concessions, has
ruined the original plan of For
ty-Niner' camp that would flatter
all the towns Of the Mother Lode"
The Mother Lode" includes such
historic California mining towns as
jamestown, Sonora, and other re-
gions glorified by Mark Twain and
Bret Harte.
The gulch, originally intended as
a historic reproduction with profit
a secondary motive, has been sac
rificed to "money-making" inter-
ests who have been allowed to place
concession side by side with the
Bar x Camp" the Chuck Wa
SON, Spanish Kitchen and other
authentic reproductions, oliver
said
Oliver, designer of film sets for
Viva villa" THE Cats Paw"
"Scarface," and other movie hits,
plans to abandon the gulch for
new undertaking in reconstruction
of Oldtown, first Spanish settle
ment in California, on the out
skirts Of San Diego.
OldtoWn, now a mixture of old
time adobe dwellings and modern
buildings, will have all newer
houses removed and become
showplace of early California life.

appeared before the house ways
and means committee.
The committee, under admins
tration pressure TO speed the tax
program before opponents have
time to organize a more intensive
campaign against it. hoped to con-
clude hearings today and start
drafting the controversial measure.
Clausen, one of the leaders in the
nation wide fight being organized
by the chamber against the propos-
ed levies. declared congress should
plan to reduce taxes on corporations
rather than increase them.
He reminded the committee that
the government had already made
loans to private industry which
turned out badly and still had an
immense investment to protect.
The committee may substitute an
excess profits tax for the gradual
ed corporation levy, it was under
stood. in view of the powerful at
tack from organized business
against such tax.
Opposes Higher Rates
Roy c. Osgood. vice president Of
the First National bank Of Chicago,
represented the chamber in oppos-
ing higher personal income and in
heritance tax rates.
Osgood warned that such taxes
might have the effect of discour-
aging enterprise and causing shut
down of industrial plants.
E. c. Alvord spoke in behalf OF
the chamber against the inheri-
tance tax.
Asked his opinion on an excess
profits tax instead of a graduated
corporation levy. Clausen said he
believed it would be impossible to
administer and should be utilized
only in event of such emergencies
as war.
He said that the Presidents pro-
gram appears to be a social re-
form measure calling for reduction
in size OF corporations which in
nv mind would lead to a reduction
Of employment and higher cost for
products Of industry
For example, Clausen said, in
taxes of the confiscatory !
kind might force liquidation Of
such a company as the Ford Mo-
tor company and If it is 10 be
kept a going concern the govern
nent would have TO be a partner"

Resentment AT Presence Of

Five Hour Riot

TACOMA, Wash, July l3. UD -
Governor Clarence D. Martin
rushed national guard reinforce
ments here today after union lum-
Der strikers and sympathizers,
many of them women, battled mi
litiamen for five hours last night.
Scores were injured, none serious
ly.
Ninety soldiers mobilized at
Olympia were sent to strengthen
the first battalion of the l6lst in
fantry, stationed in the Tacoma in
dustrial district to protect sawmill
workers who deserted strike rank
several weeks ago.
Arrival of the reinforcements in
creased tension here, Many citi-
zens are sympathetic with the Saw
mill and Timber Workers unions
fight for recognition and higher
wages, and resent the presence of
the soldiers.
At the height of last nights riot
ing, in which 300 steel-helmeted
militiamen used tear gas, clubs and
bayonets against nearly 1000 de-
monStrators. injuring more than a
score, a captain of police said, If
the soldiers would get out of Ia
coma, we could send these people
home peacefully in Is minutes" J"
Other officials had the same atti-
tude Police made no arrests while
the military forces, maintaining
virtual martial law in the mill dis
trict impounded 25 alleged lead
ers of the riot and held them un-
til morning.
The demonstrators were at
tempting to prevent Strikebreakers
from leaving the mills at quitting
time. They halted lumber trucks
and street cars.
The gas attacks were repeated
without success. Finally the SOL
diers abandoned the bombs in ia
vor of their bayonets and long
clubs.
The tide of the battle turned
when a detail of 100 guardsmen ar
rived from Camp Murray just as
the crowd had reassembled for a
new attempt to blockade the bridge.
The soldiers pushed the demon
strators before them up a hill to
the business district and for 10
blocks more into the residential
area, separating them at intersec-
tions and breaking them up into
small groups.

w WALTER HAMPDEN, in re-
AI sponse to demands from
Wv many cities, has decided
to take his "Cyrano de
Bergerac" on tour again, probably for
the last time, arriving in Washing
ton some time in the Spring. Re-
hearsals are to begin early next week.
The play will open in Hartford Janu-
ery 25 and then will tour important
cities in New England and the Middle
West before coming here. Baltimore
and Brooklyn follow the local engage
ment, and it is planned to end the
season on Broadway in May.
1t has been four years since Hamp-
den played the hero of Edmond Ros-
tands heroic comedy, a role he has
done 878 times to gross receipts of
more than 100000, and he likely
will make his last appearance in the
part on this tour. Conditions at the
present time are making it increas-
ingly difficult to operate the produc-
ton on paying basis, since "Cyrano''
is easily the most expensive to pre-
sent of all non-musical plays. 1t re-
quires company of rs. stage crew
of 81 and musicians, not to mention
2 necessary horses, and the group
rambles about the country in spe-
cial seven-car train. This all runs up
expenses. "Cyrano," however, holds
a number of records for crosses in
various cities where it has played.
Hampden, of course, will use the
Brian Hooker adaptation of the play,
which was written especially for him
and which is his exclusive property.
Katherine Warren again will play Rox-
anne.
