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.

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.

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.

HOME PLEA MADE
Request of Social Hygiene So

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."

condition, as compared with several

In rates will be necessary, is the con

"An increase In rates Is Imperative
with corresponding changes In plans,
but it Is believed this may be accom
