A METHODIST APPEAL
1
The Western Christian Advocate,
published by the Methodist church in
Cincinnati, makes a strong appeal for
a cessation of religious and racial
prejudice. After dealing with growth
of prejudice against Jews, negroes and
foreigners, the Advocate goes on to
■ay:
“In the face of these statements,
do net forget that hatred and preju
dice have also shown their presence
and activity against the Roman Cath
olic church. There has been sent forth
for public consumption propaganda
against this histone communion of
such violent character as to stir into
action age-long ill-feeling and of such
ugliness as to blot out the face of God
in the life of any man who makes
place for it. The deadly opiate for
the Christian conscience is hatred. One
should fear it as fire and deadly ex
plosives.
“How far, then, can a Christian go
in his sympathies with an organixa
tion that appeals to hatred and preju
dice? You know the answer. And
yet we learn that hundreds of people
are interested in a fraternal order
which is receiving much publicity,
favorable and otherwise, which ap
peals to those fundamental human
prejudices that can never be released
or encouraged without great loss to
the Christian wpirit. It announces that
it is against the Roman Catholic
church, against the Jews, against the
negro, against the alien, and stands
out and out for simon-pure Ameri
canism. This organization, coming
into being at a time when the psy
chological conditions are ready, is
thriving and commanding unwittingly .
the support of some of our most level
headed citizens.
“The appeal to prejudice has a dead
ly aim. It should be guarded care
fully. One should set himself against
it with all his willpower. Watch the
man or the organization who appeals
to your prejudices. They will bring
a poison into your soul that will rob
you of your friends and take away
your peace of mind. They will in the
end becloud the face of Jesus Christ ■
and turn your path into spiritual dark
ness. No man can afford to sympa
thize with or encourage in the least
any man or group of men who appeal
to hatred and prejudice. The min
istry must be free and quick to se-
the peril. Keep themselves aloof, and
in the name of Jesus Christ save the
members of their flocks from the evil
that walketh at noonday.**
Henry Ford announced that he will
dose down his shop« on September 14
rather than pay »hat he calls “graft“
for ha coal purchiwes after that date.
Coal, he says, can be had for 96 a
ton, but in his opinion 94 50 a ton is
enough for coal; the difference is
“graft" exacted by the brokers. Ford's
challenge to the coal merchant« is
of importance aside from the fact that
the closing of his shops will throw
hundreds of thousands of workers out
of employment. It is a challenge to
the present organisation of business
which is based on the assumption that
the seller is entitled to all that he
can for his product so long as he con
forms to the law. Ford returns to
the pro-capitalistic notion that there
is a just price for commodities and j
that an exaction of more is “graft.” '
A general application of the Ford
idea would work a revolution in the
business world.
The wage increases announc'd by
large steel manufacturers and others
in the east are said to be a result
of the new immigration restriction
law enacted in 1921. Alien workers
are not coming as formerly and the
revival of business has compelled the
manufacturers to bid higher for labor.
One effect of the wage increases has
been a shift of popular opinion in
favor of the striking railroad men.
So long as the general trend of wages
is upward the public finds it difficult
to see why railroad wages should go
down.
into the klan coffers at Atlunta). The
exploitation of anti-Catholic bigotry
is the stock in trade of the crowd
which has taken over the republican
central committee in this county, and
which means to profit politically and
financially by its conquest.
That
these men should exhibit the morality
of a band if pirate« is to be expected,
but that the ordinary membership of
the republican party and more par
ticularly the republican prves should
make no outcry against this prostitu
tion of the party's name passes all
understanding.
Doe« anyone believe that the presi
dent or any of hi« predecessors to
whose Americanism appeal is made
would support the intolerant measure
which the committee indorse« ? Presi
dent Harding said in a recent speech:
“In my experience of a year in the
White House there haa come to me
no other such unwelcome impression
as the manifeat religious intolerance
which exists among many of our citi-
xens. I hold it to be a menace to
the very liberties we boast an!
cherifh.” He evidently had Ku Klux-
ism in mind.
RECOUNT LEADSTO1NDICTMENT
W. H. Emrick. Chairman of Counting
Board. Held on Five Counts
William H. Emrick. chairman of the
counting board in precinct 201, was
indicted on five distinct counts by the
Multnomah county grand jury last
Friday as a result of the probe into
irregularities in that district ordered
by District Attorney Myers when
startling discrepancie« between the
votes cast and the ballot« credited to
candidates were discovered in th«
course of the Hall-Olcott recount.
The grand jurors found that votes
legally cast were not counted for at
least five candidates at the primaries
but, in effect, exonerated all mem
bers of the election board in this
precinct from criminal liability ex
cept the chairman, who read off the
purported votes from the majority of
ballots cast.
“Willful neglect” of duty is charged
in four indictments; in the fifth, Em
rick is accused of a “corrupt prac
tire,” it being alleged that as secre
tary of the Dalziel club he fraudulent
ly reported the Dalziel-Gram vote for
labor commissioner “to acquire a pe
cuniary advantage to himself and
other personal advantage«, and to
promote his own persona) and selfish
interests."
