Justin Miller Speaks on
Journalism Ethics
The Oregon code of ethics for
journalism, written by Dean Colin
Y. Dyment, was declared to be the
best code of its kind in the United
States, by the committee on ethics
of Sigma Delta Chi, according to
George II. Godfrey, Oregon delegate,
who returned Sunday from +he an
nual convention of the jurnalism
fraternity at the University of Min
nesota in Minneapolis.
The session was held November
19, 20 and 21. This committee is
headed by F. W. Beckman, head of
the department of journalism at
Iowa State college, and a code of
ethics similar to the one in this state
is soon to be drawn up.
Convention is Ninth
The convention, which is the ninth
to be held by the fraternity, elected
Melville E. Stone, counselor of the
Associated Press, as national honor
ary member. Only three other men
have been thus recognized, among
them being the late Warren G.
Harding, president of the United
States. National officers elected pit
this time were: T. Hawley Tapping,
former secretary, national presi
dent; James Wright Brown, publish
er of Editor and Publisher, national
honorary president; Donald Clark,
first vice-president; R. R. Barlow,
second vice-president; George Pier
rot, formerly of the University of
Washington and now on the staff of
the American Boy, secretary; Peter
Vischer, of the Now York World,
treasurer; and W. E. Drips, alumni
secretary.
New Chapter Granted
A chapter of the fraternity was
granted to Washington State col
lege, and tho delegate from the Uni
versity of Toronto was welcomed at
this time. These two additions now
swell the total of chapters in this
country and Canada to 28, and about
six other organizations arc petition
ing for admittance to the group.
An ethical afternoon mooting was
one of tho features of tho national
fconcl'ave. At this session, which
was devoted to discussing ethics of
journalism, Justin Miller, formerly
of the law school at the University
here, and now in the law depart
ment of tho University of Minne
sota, was the principle speaker. H.
Z. Mitchcl^ nationally known for
his work as editor of the Bomidji
Sentinel, also spoke on the place of
the country weekly. Tho Minnea
polis Tribune and Minneapolis Journ
al, the loading papers of the twin
cities, each were hosts at banquets
given for the delegates, and tho con
vention en masse was taken through
tho plant of tho Journal, whore an
extra edition of tho paper was run
off the press as a souvenir.
Iowa Wins Contest
Iowa State college again won the
efficiency contest, with North Da
kota second, Kansas Stato third and
O. A. C. fourth. Tho contest is to
bo continued another year.
One of the important resolutions
drawn up and adopted by tho con
vention favored higher wages for
reporters and writers cm newspapers,
and the delegates went on record
as favoring a high standard for all
journalistic enterprises. Hammer
and Coffin, national publishing so
ciety, was also recognized as a journ
alistic society of growing import
ance, and dual membership in the
society and Hammer and Coffin was
favored.
Social affairs for the delegates
included banrjuets, luncheons, and a
dance at which Theta Sigma Phi,
national women’s journalism fra
ternity, was hostess.
The national conclave will be held
at the University of Indiania, at
Indianapolis, next November.

L. A. Lewis Interested in
Tang Period Figure -
“That’s like asking me which of
twenty young ladies I think the
best looking,” was the reply of L.
A. Lewis, when asked if there was
one piece in the Murray Warner
j museum that interested him most.
| Mr. Lewis, of the firm of Allen and
Lewis, Portland, lias far a hobby the
| collection of Oriental art, and came
Friday to attend the opening of the
museum at the ■ invitation of Pre
sident P. L. Campbell.
At last, however, as a man might
be finally led to confess for a blond
lady, or one of a certain type, Mr.
Lewis expressed an especialy fond
ness for porcelains. His own collec
tion of porcelains is known through
out the northwest. This year he
presented a pottery statue of a ped
dler to the Portland art museum.
Its workmanship dates back to the
Tang period, as does the small pot
tery horse in the old Women’s league
room. Like all peddlers, Mr. Lewis
said, it is not a native of the coun
. try in which it was found, but looks
like it Came from much , further
' west.
i The horse interested Mr. Lewis,
who said it was one of the Arabian
; types. The Chinese have another
| type of short Mongolian pony in
| their art as- well. The action, spirit,
! and anatomy were commended in
this one by. Mr. Lewis.
| “It is more realistic than*°many
jof their things,” he said, looking at
lit intently with his shrewd, kindly
j eyes. He said it had originally been
I paiifted, but the dampness and mold
had taken put the coloring.
The old Chinese custom, Mr.
Lewis stated, was once to bury a
man’s wives, servants and animals
with him when he died. Gradually
the custom changed, and models of
them were made to accompany him
to the hereafter. The little horse
"No, Grace, ‘The Gold Dig
gers’ isn’t just another pic
ture of those rough and
ready miners of ’49.”
