AMERICAN LOYALTY LEAGUE
IN MOVE TO HAVE ENGLISH
SERVICE HELD
MINISTERS CITE REASONS
Two German Churchi's Hold Sermons
in Native Tongue Declare that
Government Approves
A communication has been address
ed to the ministers of the German
churches in this city by the Ameri
can Loyalty League, an organization
that numbers eleven thousand mem
bers in Clackamas county, wherein
the clergymen are asked to set forth
valid reasons why they should con
tinue with services in the' German
tongue, as they have been and are
now doing.
The query is the outgrowth of a
conference between two of the German
preachers and F. R. Andrews, sec
retary of the Loyalty League, and
Hal E. Hoss, director of publicity
for the league. This meeting was
held on Monday, and time in which
to, take the matter up with their con
gregations has been asked for by the
' churchmen. ' ':
Some objection had been raised
about , the city,1 and the league had
been called upon to ascertain if the
ministers would not consider discon
tinuing the practice of holding their
services in the German language.
No personality entered into the ob
jections whatever, it being well
known that both pastors of the Ger
man churches here are loyal Ameri
cans. But the contention was, since
the German nation had proven itself
such a despicable ulcer on civiliza
tion, that all connections, relation
ships, and association with them
should be dropped by citizens of a
democracy.
The fact that services are being
held in the German language at two
churches here has been enough to
arouse the suspicion, however
groundless it may Jjer. that. the war
aims and purposes of our govern
ment are being ignored. In explain
ing just why the churches continue
with the" practice of holding sermons
and services in German, Rev. Wil
liam R. Kraxberger and Rev. Fred
Wievesiek, of the Zion Lutheran and
German Evangelical churches stated
that but 10 of their congregations
were able to comprehend the English
language, and that on one occasion,
when they had endeavored to change
over to the English service, the at
tendance decreased until they had to
forego the idea. The ministers ex
pressed themselves as ready and
willing to do anything that would
tend toward the successful conclusion
of the war, and there is little doubt
but that the League will reach some
agreement with them whereby the
circumstances may be amended. In
support of the German language at
their service, the ministers said that
it was not right to deny their coun
trymen of the privilege of divine
worship, and that through no other
medium than the German translation
could they understand the Bible.
Both ministers have supported the
Liberty Loan drives and Red Cross
campaigns, and state that among
their members there are a number
of active workers along patriotic en
deavors. Practically all of the con
gregation, they say, are American
citizens, there being a few who fail
ed to take out their second papers
while there was yet time before the
war.
Another argument cited by the
clergymen, is a statement accredited
to President Wilson, wherein he was
quoted as saying that he disapprov
ed any agitation tending to disrupt,
.German church services, by forcing
them to adopt the English language.
They also - stated that the govern
ment is continually sending them out
literature, printed at the government
printing office in the German langu
age, for distribution among the
church members, and telling of the
war aims of the United States. It is
said that through no other medium
could the German people in this
country be acquainted with the facts
of the situation. Both Mr. Wieve
siek and Mr. Kraxberger are Four
Minute Men,, delegated to speak in
German to their countrymen on the
war.
The American Loyalty League has
a county convention slated for the
24th of this month, and it is expect
ed that a statement will have been
made by the ministers and consider
ed by the executive committee of
the League in time to have a report
on the situation at that time.
Two Couples Licensed
Papers for a double wedding were
issued by the marriage license clerk
at the court house yesterday. Ralph
E. Bennett, aged 20, of 2109 Division
street, will wed Florence Trullinger,
aged 17, of 18th and Harrison
streets; and Ralph H. Scott, aged 21,
of 1219 10th street, has for a bride
a sister of the other groom, Miss
Violet Lambert, aged 17, of 2109 Di
vision street. Both girls and one of
the boys were under age, and the
consent of their mothers was neces
sary to have the license issued.
OMAN
PAVED HIGHWAYS TO
INCLUDE FIVE MILES
ROADMASTER ROOTS PLANNING
ON MUCH WORK BEFORE
END OF SEASON
Plans for hardsurfacing a number
of heavily traveled highways in the
county are going ahead in good
shape, according to statements made
by County Roadmaster Thomas
Roots. Wednesday the piece between
Milwaukie city limits and Clackamas
was completed. This stretch is a
mile long, and fills a great gap in
the much used road. There has now
been laid nearly two miles and a
half since the fore part of July, and
before the fall rains set in it is ex
pected that a total of five miles will
have been laid in the county for the
season's work.
Monday morning hard surface work
is to begin in the city of Gladstone,
which voted a 10-mill special levy
for hard surface roads last fall. The
work will begin at the Clackamas
bridge and an equal amount of the
special tax is to be spent on the
river road and the Clackamas road.
The road is to be the standard 16
foot pavement which has been laid
by the county during the past two
years and will be the first step in u
system of permanent hard surface
road3 through Gladstone connecting
with trunk lines on each side.
Two other districts which voted
special levies for hard surface roads
during the past year will get their
highways before the fall rains set in.
District No. 12 plans to pave the
Clackamas Rock Creek road toward
Baker's Bridge from the Smith ranch.
In the Wichita-Ardenwald district,
where $3000 was voted for hard sur
face, the work will be carried on fol
lowing the Rock Creek stretch.
The Oak Grove river road between
Jennings Lodge and the John Risley
place, connecting with hard surface
at either end, was the first piece of
hard surface laid this summer.
HUN GAS ATTACKS GET
TWO BOYS FROM CLACKAMAS
Two Clackamas county boys have
suffered the dread gas attacks in
France, according to recent word
received here. Lieutenant Ren Hols
claw, in a letter to his mother, Mrs.
G. F. Anderson, says that every fifth
shot is in the nature of a gas attack
by the huns. His face was badly
swollen from the burns. Young
Holsclaw has been fighting with the
French troops, and is with the 120
First Artillery.
Dan Fmucane has written his
father here, P. S. Finnucane, stating
that he was still in the hospital, but
was recovering nicely from the gas
burns. He highly lauds the care and
attention- given the patients in the
hospital by the doctors and curses,
and says that he will have many a
tale to unfold when he returns to his
home. His letter telling of his
wounds was written July- 11th, and
one written on the 25th of June told
of his being in the best of health, so
it is deducted that he had been at the
front in the active fighting in the in
terim. HALF OF COUNTY QUOTA
FOR NURSES IS RAISED
The campaign for nurses in the
county is going ahead, with several
already signed up and others expect
ing to come in within a few days.
Mrs. Gardiner, secretary of the Red
Cross branch here, has taken up the
work of recruiting during the ab
sence of Chairman Mrs. John B.
Lewthwaite, who has departed for a
month's vacation. The office of the
recruiting department is being main
tained in the Red Cross work rooms
in the Masonic building. The quota
set for this county is ten nurses, and
the following have already volunteer
ed for service: Miss Edna Holman
Miss Vera Brown, Miss Mabelle Al
bright," Miss Stella Leighton, and
Mrs. Lorena Baker.
GLADSTONE KNITTING CLUB
HAS MANY HARD WORKERS
The Gladstone Knitting Club has
responded to the Red Cross appeal
for more socks for the Red Cross,
and are resuming their work with
the long needles. Among the patri
otic members of this organization
are Mrs. R. W. Porter, aged 80, who
has made 00 pair of socks; Mrs.
Webster, aged 62, who has knitted
58 pair, and Mrs. M. A. LaSalle, who
has attained the age of 60, with a
pair of socks for each year of her
life to show for her recent knitting
activity.

Named for Local Chairman
Plans are being rapidly perfected
for the Oregon State Salvation Army
War Service drive outside of Port
land, for $25,000, which opens in this
county on Sunday, September 15 and
closes Saturday, September 21. t,van
gelist John M. Linden of Chicago,
former pastor of the Baptist church
in this city, is the state campaign
manager. The general office for the
drive has already been opened in
room 228 Chamber of Commerce
building, Portland, with Dr. William
Wallace Youngson, general; C. C.
Bortameyer, office manager, and Wil
liam M. Ladd, treasurer. Judge H.
Anderson has been asked to head
the campaign here, but owing to the
press of other business will 'have to
decline, he says, ' The Clackamas
county quota has been set at $1400.
Already the wiuest publicity has
been given the drive, through the
columns of the press, both city and
country, and this week the work is
being supplemented by the distribu
tion of 10,000 flaring posters printed
in red and blue on white paper, thus
combining the national colors and
bearing attractive pictures of Salva
tion Army lassies passing out pies
and doughnuts to the boys in the
trenches. The posters also bear a
group of statements bristling with
loyalty and patriotism and com
mending in highest terms the work
of the Salvation Army, from the pens
of President Wilson, Secretary of
War Baker, Secretary of the Navy
Daniels, Governor Withycombe, of
Oregon, Mayor George L. Baker, of
Portland, the famous evangelist,
Billy" Sunday, and others equally
well known.
Mr. Linden. camDaicrn manager.
said recently, "1 am already having
many encouraging reports from all
sections of the state showing a sin
cere interest on the part of all the
people and though the game is still
young, I feel sure-that the drive is
going over big, just as Oregon drives
for all good causes always do. The
Portland drive for $25,000, . which
was held last winter, not only went
over the top and considerably more,
but it is still recalled as one of the
most enthusiastic drives engendering
the finest spirit that the city has ever
had and I expect the state drive to be
of the same character."
Evangelist "Billy" Sunday, who is
taking a well deserved rest on his
ranch at Hood River, has wired Mr.
Linden the following typical com
mendation of the worth of the Sal
vation Army and its war service.
"The Salvation Army is not an ex
periment, it is trisd and, true, we all
found out long before war was de
clared. When the kaiser and his in
famous crowd of blood thirsty Huns
are licked to a frazzle and peace
once more broods over this blood
stained world, none will occupy a
higher place in God's Hall of Fame
than the Salvation Army lassies.
Whatever money you give they will
turn into pie and daughnuts for' our
brave defenders across the sea."
WEARY WILLIE ADDED TO
FORCE OF STREET WORKERS
R. M. Griffith landed in town re
cently, and started the old, hard time
game of pan-handling. He was lm
mured in the city jail on a vagrancy
charge, where Judge Loder, city re
corder, asked him if he wanted
work. The beggar yawningly replied
that he would not, whereupon the
good judge immediately made con
nections for the man with a good
position on the municipal staff. He
was led to the street paving district,
and put to work, where he is at least
earning his board. The man is
seemingly able-bodied, and in the
prime of life.

Sergeant Albert W. Fredrichs, of
the Military Police, to take charge
of Pietro Zuccarn alleged deserter
caught in the act of changing his
uniform for civilian clothes near here
a few days ago. Sergeant Freder-
chs is the son of Councilman C. W.
Frederichs, of this city and was
here for a visit with his parents but
a few days ago. He has taken the
prisoner back - to American Lake,
where he will face a general court-
martial. Since his arrest last Thurs
day, Zuccaro has been held in the
county jail. He was first suspected
by the watchman at the James Ad
kins' saw mill, near Greenpoint, who
telephoned the sheriff's office. Of
ficers arrested the man without re
sistance.' He had procured a suit of
civilian clothes somewhere, and when
apprehended was in the act of chang-
ng his uniform for them. In his
pocket was found an expired fur-
ough, signed by -his commanding of
ficer at Camp Lewis. The prisoner
said before departing that he ex
pected it would go rather hard with
him at the court martial. He enlist
ed in Montana, and was stationed for
several months at Vancouver, he
says. The man is an Italian.
FATHER OF FOUR PATRIOTS
SEEKS NEWS OF LOST SON
John McMurren, who lives on a lit
tle place near here, has recently gone
to Portland to seek news from federal
officers of the whereabouts of his
son, Clark McMurren, who is,, or was,
serving on the patrol boat "Quiros,"
in the navy. The young man enlist
ed three years ago, and at first wrote
regularly to his aged father, but for
the past year no word of him has
been received, and the father says
that if his ship has been sunk he
wants to know it. Before enlisting,
Clark was employed at the local pa
per mills, and at fishing.
Three other sons of Mr. McMur-
ren's are serving their country. Ros
coe, formerly a marhinist at the pa
per mills is on the battleship "St.
Louis, and Jesse and Joaquin are
serving in France with the army,
The old gentleman, while still hale
and hearty, is getting along in years,
and says that he hates to think of
one of his sons out where he cannot
keep in touch with him.
FARMER INJURED
George DeBok Thrown from Wagon
at Turn in Koad
George DeBok, a well known young
farmer of the Willamette neighbor
hood, was severely bruised and crush
ed last Thursday when a wagon load
of wood on which he was riding tip
ped over, precipitating him to the
ground under several sticks. The
wagon turned over at a bend in the
road. The injured man was immed
iately picked up and carried to his
home nearby, and Dr. H. S. Mount of
this,ity was summoned.

ON DRAFT GALLS
DESTINATION AND DATES OF
DEPARTURES HELD UP BY
LOCAL BOARD
TWO CONTINGENTS DEPART
Calls Issued for Sixty More Class
r
One Men and Names Released
Under One Group
Some time early in September,
every man in Clackamas county be
tween the ages of 18 and 20, and 32
and 45 years, inclusive, will be re
quired to register under the new
draft law, now before Congress. The
scope of the law is nation wide.
These age limits are yet tentative,
as the bill has not yet been set, and
cannot be set until Congress passes"
the law- to lower and extend the
draft ages. But it is considered cer
tain that the law will be passed very
soon and that, the registration day
to be proclaimed by the President
will be early in September.
Every man who comes within the
designated ages should keep himself
very carefully, informed, for his own'
protection, about the status of the
new draft measure, and especially as
to the day fixed for registration. The
Courier at all times takes special
part in handling news of the war
board activities, and no better med
ium of acquainting yourself with the
provisions of the laws can be found.
Failure to register on the proper day
Will subject the neglectful person to
a heavy penalty. Ignorance will not
excuse him.
Oregon is now pretty well versed
in the procedure to be complied with
by men of draft age On registration
day, for already two such draft reg
istration days have been held in the
state. The first was that of June 5,
1917, when all men from 21 to 30
years of age, inclusive, were requir
ed to register for military service.
The second registration day was that
of June 5 of this year, when all men.
who had attained their 21st birthday
since registration day of the pre
ceding year were required to regis
ter.
The coming registration day will
be even more important than these
two, for the number of men to be
registered is estimated at fully tme-
third greater than on June 5, 1917.
It is believed that in Oregon alone
fully 100,000 men will have to regis
ter. So far as possible, registration
places on the coming registration day
will be m regular voting places.
Local boards will be in full charge
of the registration, and the Clacka
mas county draft organization has
already been notified to hold itself in
readiness. Over 80 registrars have
been appointed throughout the coun
ty. COMMANDER OF BRITISH
ARMY APPRECIATES POEMS
Mary Newton Badger, the Beaver
Creek author, has recently received a
letter of thanks from Sir Douglas
Haig, for a copy of her last publica
tion of poems, "Happy Homeland
Echoes." The booklets are being dis
posed of for the benefit of the Red
Cross, and are neat little compila
tions of some of Mrs. Badger's best
works.
The letter received by Mrs. Badger
was dated at general headquarters in
France, July 6, 1918, and says: "Dear
Madame: Sir Douglas Haig wishes
me to thank you very much for so
kindly sending him your book, which
he greatly appreciates.
"Yours very truly,

ROAD MATTERS REQUIRE
COMMISSIONER'S ATTENTION
In the matter of establishing a
road through the lands through the
lands of C. H. Piatt and Sarah A.
Beckett, the county court has ap
pointed a board of viewers to make
an examination of the proposed high
way. At the hearing just closed, the
petitioners and the objectors were
out in equal force, and some bitter
controversy was brought out.
The court assessed damages to the
extent of $10, and ordered the road
way opened through the Fred Bech
ill place. This road is the A. Larson
highway, and. the petitioners have
to construct a suitable fence, besides
paying the assessed damage.
Oak Grove Property Involved
Jessie V. Gleason is suing Mary L,
Wagner in the circuit court in an en
deavor to foreclose a mortgage on a
tract of land in Oak Grove. The
mortgage was given to secure the
payment for the purchase of the
$1500 property in September, 1912,
and was made out to one u. i. Wal
lace,, who has assigned his interest
to the plaintiff in this action. A
judgment in the amount of the mort
gage, with the costs of the action
added, are asked for in the com
plaint.
COUNTY ENRICHED BY
AUTO CONTRIBUTORS
SPEEDERS FINED BY JUSTICE
OF PEACE SIEVERS FOR
SCORCHING ROADS
Monday in the Justice Court ia a
busy day for Judge John N. Sievers.
Wash day it is, and speeders are
cleaned up in nice shape. Those to
come in this week for painful ex
traction were Abe Brugger, $10; J.
L. Berridge. $10; J. Wilson, $15; G,
W. Soyter, $16; and J. Newell, who
was fined $25. Mrs. A. Smith was
caught in the act of passing a ma
chine when another car was ap
proaching, and was fined $20. One
of the cars was run off into a ditch
as the result of the woman's care
lessness. These were all Portland
people, arrested on Saturday and
Sunday by the speed cop.
H. Hartley, also from Portland,
was fined the sum of $50, and costs,
for having a load of intoxicants and
intoxicated persons with him Sun
day morning at 1:30. He was arrest
ed on the road between Clackamas
and .Portland. In the car were found
some partly empty bottles, and two
half-sober couples. The driver claim
ed that he had picked the people up
to give them a lift and did not know
who they were or that they had li
quor with them.
Miscreants on vengeance bent
tracked Speed Cop Meads to his lair
on the 82nd street road late Satur
day night, and carefully salted the
roadway leading but to the highway,
with a number of up-pointing roof
tacks. The nails were imbedded in
the dust, in the little passageway
where Meads darts out after the
happy joy-rider. His motorcycle
picked up three of the little hole
makers before he realized what he
was up against. Needless to say he
is keeping a wary eye on suspects,
and ultimately hopes ' to find the
guilty person.
BEAVER CREEK DEDICATES
COMMUNITY SERVICE FLAG
Practically all the Beaver Creek
and surrounding territory residents
turned out to the dedication of the
service flag there on last Saturday
night. The exercises were held at
the Grange hall, and one of the
features of the evening's program
was a flag drill by 24 young ladies of
the community, directed by Mrs.
George Havill. The address of the
evening was made by William M.
Stone, of the city, and his remarks
were appropriate to the occasion and
and well received.
A quilt was raffled off for the bene
fit of the Red Cross and the sum of
$53.25 realized. The Red Cross also
sold ice cream and cake at a good
profit for their local auxiliary. A
community sing followed the dedica
tory address and was much enjoy
ed. . .
The stars on the Beaver Creek
service flag are representative of
the following who have answered
their country's call: Charles, Robert,
and John Beatie; Griffith Jones and
Humphrey Parry, Griffith Roberts,
John, William and George Watt, Da
vid Harris, Fred Bluhm, Jr., Max
Holman, Charles Wright, Emmett
Hughes, Irvine Dodge, Lloyd Schram,
and Robert White.
i
RARE SOUVENIRS FROM
BATTLE-FRONT RECEIVED
W. W. Woodbeck, circulation man
ager of the Morning Enterprise, has
just received three mail packets from
his ton, Henry O. Woodbeck, who is
in France with the railway engin
eers division. Among the souvenirs
sent across by the young man are
paper knives, made from machine
gun shells, and some exquisite small
vases, made from other small shells.
One of the large new French type
75" shells has been wrought into a
vase, standing about 8 inches In
height. The sides have been hand-
hammered and drilled, with a beauti
ful design worked in flowers on the
brass. The art work is said to have
been done by crippled French sol
diers. The articles are on display in
the f Burmeister & Andresen jewelry
store, where they attract consider
able attention. The shells have been
used, and a lot of satisfaction goes
with the knowledge that they may
have been used in successfully stop
ping a Hun.
MUCH NEEDED PAVEMENT
BEING LAID ON SEVENTH
City Engineer Miller is busy su
pervising the laying of the first
block of pavement on Seventh street,
at the top of the hill. The street be
tween Center and Washington was
closed to traffic Monday, and the
work of laying the Richmondite is
going rapidly ahead. There will be
a total of several blocks surfaced
with the pavement, which is said to
have proved successful in other parts.
Seventh street is one of the main ar
teries leading into the city, and one
of the heaviest travelled streets
here.

Clackamas County Draft Organiza
tion Tuned up to Handle Largest
Registration Yet
In charge of Roy Paddock, of Ca-
nemah, as captain, a squad of soldier
students departed Wednesday night
for Spokane, where they are to take
training at the Modern Auto School.
Besides the leader, there were in the
increment the following: William
James McLarty, of West Linn; Glenn
Monroe Larking, Mulino; John T.
Lagsdon, West Linn, and Sara Roake, "
of Clackamas.
Leaving here today (Thursday), at
10:50 a. m., was a contingent for the
Benson Polytechnic school in Port
land, composed of: Clyde Emerson
Mayfield, Walla Walla; John Moger,
Springwater; Paul Kock, Sandy;
Ralph Hardy, Molalla; Austin Nick
eles, Frank Zadnikar, and Ennis E.
Gabriel, of this city; Lyle Tiedeman,
Sherwood; Michael Hemrich, Boring;
Henry Zimmerman, Aurora, and Ben
jamin Steininger, of Molalla. Henry
Zimmerman has been selected Dy tne
local war board to captain the bunch

One of the selectives, E. K Gabriel,
was married on Monday night to
Miss Mvrtle Cahill, of Portland. The
ceremony took place at Tillamook, at
the home of the groom's sister, Mrs.
Clarence Stanley. The bride will
make her home with relatives in
Portland while Mr. Gabriel . attends
to the affairs of the nation at ' the
trade school.
The draft' board today (Thursday),.'
released calls for approximately 60
class One men, to assemble at dates
not eiven to the public. The destin-.
ation of the boys was not even made
known to them, the new rulings of
the war department holding the
board to a strict silence on these
points. Forty of the registrants will
be.used to fill one call, while tne re
maining twenty will be separated,
and sent to fill vacancies at two dif
