THE MOT? XING OKEGOXIAN, MONDAY, JULY 13, 1914. COLORED CHURCH iS EAST SIDE PROBLEM Congregation Ready to Build or to Sell, if Property-Owners Pay $8000 for Lot. NEIGHBOR SAYS BLACKMAIL Zlon's Preacher Denies Profit Is Being Made In Deal and Threatens to Start Work Today if Not Closed. The congregation of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church say they are having "the very dickens" of a time in finding a location on which to build a house of worship. Property owners in the vicinity of Bast First and Halsey Btreets say that the colored nennle seem iust as anxious to sell their church property on me soumwooi ner of Bast First and Halsey streets h nrnnnsed Kite of the UW Church, as the property owners are anxious to see the property purchased and made Into a street. "The proposal of the Zion congress inn to build a church In this neigh hr.rh-.nd Is simply a blackmailing .v, in make some money," said Thrtm. v.rwlar vesterday. Mr. Varwig lives directly across the street from the church property, on the northeast corner of Bast u irst ana .ai ey streets. Previous Deal Is Cited. "They made some money by selling their property at isast Bixm ana jmuiL nomah streets, because the residents in that locality gave them a CDntrlbution to induce the sale. Now they think they can make some money out of us by the same scheme. "The church members themselves ad mit that the street ought to be put through where their property Is and are anxious to sell their property. They are 'laying for" seven or eight thousand dollars, but their property is worth no where near as much as they ask." "I have lived In this locality for 30 years and I naturally know something about the property values," said A. De war, whd lives at 331 Halsey street, not more than 100 feet from the line of the church property. "That two-thirds of a lot. for which they ask 18000. is not worth any more than $3000. No property In this community, of similar dimension and location, has brought any more than $3000. It looks to me like they were trying to make some money." Rev. William Wealthy Howard, pas tor of the ZiDn Church, had an entirely different story to tell yesterday. "Unless the Interested property own ers make Davment to us tomorrow we will commence the excavation for our new church." he said. "If they will pay us $$.252 we will surrender title to the property and look elwhere on the East Side for a location. Profit Denied by Preacher. "We did not make any money by sell ing our original property at Sixth and Multnomah streets, where we now con duct our worship, but under the cir cumstances, considering the way the times are now, we figured that the best we could do was to sell. The East Halsey-street property stood us $8000 when we purchased it from Mrs. Mc Lean. The $252 which we ask is to cover the expense of removing the old residence on the site and for attorney fees attached to the proceedings." The contract for the excavation, which Is scheduled to begin today, has been let to G. J. Penn, the treasurer of the church. Rev. Mr. Howard said yesterday that Mr. Penn probably would be given the contract to erect the new building also. It is proposed to build a frame church, costing between $4500 and $5000. The colored congregation expects to have it completed by Octo ber 1. The property at Issue is a peculiarly shaped parcel, which makes a sharp Jog in Halsey street at its Intersection with East First street. The property owners say they have been frying for 15 years to have Halsey street extended through the Irregular strip. The matter has been presented to City Engineer Dater and now is being con sidered by the city officials. Last Thursday about 50 white residents of the locality appeared at the City Han to demand that the property be made into a street. The church was repre sented at the meeting by G. J. Penn and Its attorney, Guy R. McCoy. An assessment district has been cre ated to raise the money to buy the land. It seems that some of the resi dents In the district are not willing to pay their assessments, feeling that the city should"mke the purchase. As a result, the promoters of the street extension are requesting that the as sessment area be extended so that suf ficient funds may be raised. "I am willing to pay the assessment of $600 made against me if the city says so," said Mr. Varwlg yesterday. "The church trustees may go ahead with the construction of the church, as thev threaten they will, but I doubt it. The matter entirely is in the hands of the City Commission now. Mr. Dewar expressed a similar opin ion. Both sides to the controversy admit ted yesterday that the question of church location probably would not be definitely settled for, perhaps, several days to come. 17,000 CARS FRUIT YIELD 'Washington Estimate Predicts Aver, age Crop In Spite of Pests.

Omar says that all he needs to make him Joyous Is a loaf of bread, a Jug of wine and some dsar gazelle to hold his hand, which, Dave says, entitles Omar, 900 y'rs ago, to the credit for first defining the mystic words, "This Is the life."

Sth and Alder. PAINLESS PARKER. 2 COOS BOATS RAGE George W. Elder May Over haul Rival Breakwater. 45 MINUTES ARE GAINED Two Vessels Leave Astoria to Min utes Apart on Run Down Coast. "They're Fair Weather Boats," Declares Scotch Skipper. If the time taken to run from Port land to Astoria is any criterion of the speed of the two steamers, the Break water and the George Vv. Elder, it looks as if the Elder would show the Breakwater her heels before the two steamers cross the bar into coos Bay this morning. The Breakwater left her dock in Portland at 8 A M. yesterday and the Elder at 9. The Breakwater reached Astoria at 2:30 P. M. and the Elder was there at 2:45. The Breakwater left Astoria at 3:10 and the Elder was right after her, at 3:30. Coming up on me last irip, mo Breakwater left Coos Bay at 2 P. M. She covered the 170 miles up tha coast and into Astoria by 5 A. M. The Elder left at 4 P. M. and reached Astoria at 6:30, thus gaining half an hour on the Breakwater. Captain Macgenn does not lay claim to speed in tine weather. The Break water has a reputation as a stormy petrel. "They are all after me In the Sum mer," says the intrepid Scotch skipper, "but you don't see any of them hunting me in the Winter. The Breakwater can show her heels to anything coming up or down the coast in rough weather. Then, too, the Elder burns oil and her firemen have little to do. but mine have to work like Trojans shoveling coal. News From Oregon Ports. COOS BAY. Or.. July 12. (Special.)

Adv, HOME PLEA MADE Request of Social Hygiene So ciety Complied With. FATHER 0'HARA SPEAKER W. F. Woodward Addresses Presby terian Synod and A. F. Flegel Will Carry Message to Ro tary Olnb Tomorrow. "There can be no real National greatness without good home life where children are trained in the fun damental virtues of Industry, honesty, purity and sobriety." said Father E. V. O'Hara in his sermon on "Back to the Home," at St. Mary's Roman Cath olic Cathedral yesterday. Father O'Hara was responding to the request of the education committee of the Oregon Social Hygiene Society that ministers preach "Back to the Home" sermons during the month of July. W. F. Woodward, of Portland, chair man of the committee, addressed the Presbyterian Synod at Eugene last night on the same subject, and A. F. Flegel. Democratic nominee for Rep resentative in Congress, will support the movement in his speech before the Rotary Club at Its luncheon tomorrow at the Benson Hotel. "Better home life must be the watch word of all good citizens," said Father O'Hara. "Our city population has drifted away from the Ideals of home. The truant officer, the Juvenile court and other similar agenoles tell a story which can hardly be news to any city dweller who has eyes and ears and time for reflection. It Is a sad story of parental neglect, of Juvenile wilful ness and of domestic tragedy. "Many hundreds of children are re ported late at night as ranging the streets without control, frequenting the playgrounds without supervision and visiting places of amusement without chaperons. It is putting it mildly to say that all thoughtful investigators are appalled by the record of youth ful delinquency. There Is one chief cause, namely, the decay of home ideals; there-Is one sovereign remedy, the rehabilitation of home Influences. "In order that children may find their home what It should be it is necessary for the parents to take their duties seriously. In view of the suc cessive polygamy which Is so general ly practiced It Is often difficult for children to know whom they should obey, but even apart from the wreck ing of homes by divorce, there Is un fortunately too much evading of pa rental responsibility. Many parents turn over to the schools the whole moral education of their children. This shelving of the duties of father and mother onto the school Is essential socialism. The state has many important functions, but it can never successfully assume the duties of the home." ARTISANS' RATES TOO LOW Four States Say Order In Good Con dition, but Must Raise. SALEM. Or..
