THE MORNIXG OREGONIAJf, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1915. 15 HATiQNAL DEFENSE IS DINNER TOPIC Prominent Portland Men Say City Should Go on Record in Important Issue: EVENT SET FOR TUESDAY Other Leading Coast Communities Are Declared in Favor of Proper and Adequate Armed Pre paredness Against AVar. Portland is preparing to tackle the "National Defense" problem in organ ized force. Many of her leading- citizens will (rather at the Chamber of Commerce next Tuesday evening- to listen to ad dresses by persons acquainted with the needs for adequate protection both by land and by sea, an,d it is possible that the meeting will pass some resolutions Riving- expressions to the views of the people there represented. Other cities on the Pacific Coast al ready have acted on this subject. tjOH Angeles has declared her posi tion to be in favor of "such provisions for National defense as will best assure against foreign aggression and pre serve the peace and security of the Nation." San Krancisco has declared that a "free people ought not only to be armed' but disciplined, to which end a uniform and a well-digested plan are requisite." Prominent Men to Speak. Reattle is not only strongly of rec ord, but is supporting- the hands of President Wilson in his recently pro mulgated programme for increased ef ficiency on tho part of the Navy and Army. It was with an understanding? of the importance of the subject in mind that the Chamber of Commerce joined with a committee from the Navy League in preparing the dinner for Tuesday eve ning and arranged for the appearance of noted , men of this Coast to discuss the subject in all Its phases. Among them will be Dr. James B. Bullitt, field secretary for the Navy League, and Judgo Thomas Burke, of Seattle. The Navy League committee consists of Governor Withycombe, J. C. Ains Tvorth, Colonel Henry Cabell, C. C. Colt, Harry U Corbett, Kranklin T. Griffith, "W. M. Ladd. Robert W. Lewis, Dr. K. A. .1. McKenzie, Roderick Macleay, A. L. Mills, f. B. Riley, Guy W. Talbot, Captain Gordon Voorhles, T. B. Wil cox, Edward Cookingham and George F. rtodsrers.s the latter of Salem. Interested Persons Invited. "The dinner will not attempt to dis cuss the technical side of an adequate defense of the United States from pos sible invasion. That is a question for the trained minds of the Army and Navy boards." said Kdward Cooking ham, vice-president of the Ladd & Til ton bank, yesterday. "It is proper for the people to gather, however, and - learn all that they c'ui of the actual conditions of the country in regard to defense and to take an interest In the cost of a defense programme. "I take it that every American will back the Administration at Washing ton in the expenditure of as much rrioney as may be needed. That is not the question. "The Vnatter concerns the future of the United States of America, and there must be a united sentiment behind the Government at Washington. "Jt is right that the country should know where Portland stands on the question, and it is right that Portland ers should be enabled to make up their minds after full and free discussion of the various phases of the subject. It is in that spirit that a popular dinner Is being arranged, as I understand it, mid one that will be clad to welcome the people of Portland who are inter ested." Reservations for the dinner are now being received at the Chambeq of Commerce. BANK WINS THIRD ACTION Jury Jtoports for Defendants in Suit Over $1000 Stock Sale. The score in the litigation between rurchasers of stock of the Co-operative Supply House and the Bank of Oresham, J. G. Eleret, president; O. A. Kagtman, cashier, and Dr. J. M. Short, director, all of that institution, now stands two to one.- The bank and its co-defendants yesterday scored their first victory when a jury in Judge Mc Ginn's court reported a verdict in their favor in a esse in whinh Ned Nelson was suing to recover $1000 which he paid for stock. Last week a jury returned a verdict in favor of F. O. Eckstrom for more than $1300 against all the defendants except the bank and John G. Bleret. About a year ago another purchaser of stock beat an attempt to c611ect on a note which he had given in exchange lor stock. f PERSONALMENTION. T W. Rice, of Seattle, is at the Ore iron. K.

LACKAYE IS AT NATIONAL Valeska Suratt, in "The Soul ol Broadway," Shows Evil Woman's -Determined Effort to Entice) Man of Her Selection. Merited and unusual popularity has kept "The White Pearl" at the Peoples Theater all week. Marie Doro, whose florescent beauty has made her a motion-picture star of note, plays the part of the young girl who, on the separation from her wealthy suitor,, goes to sea with her sea captain father. Not so easily lost, the young man con ceals himself in the ship and soes along. Right off the coast of Japan the ship is wrecked. Some years before, in a province of Japan the sacred pearl was stolen from the god "Buddah." Accord ing to ancient prohecy four deaths will result, then the pearl will return. The stone has fallen into the hands of Nancy and she Is washed to the feet of the Buddah. Her memory is gone and she is reared as a Japanese maiden and abducted and sold, as a Geisha girl. Jack rescues her and the film ends with Nancy, Jack and the "pearl" hap pily united. Comedies and Path news complete the bill. LACKAYE IS NATIOXAXi STAR VThe Man ot Shame" Melodramatic and Sensational. "The Man of Shame," a five-act Broadway Universal feature Btarring Wilton Lackaye and Rosemary Theby, opened yesterday at the National for a three-day run. With a plot of adven ture and a savor of the old-tims melo drama, rapid action and varied setting are effected. Wilton Lackaye has the role of a strong, honest man and his double, a man of sin and shame. The parts are well accomplished by trick photography and splendid acting. Army life, business life and the gaye ties of the French capital bring in the grandeur of Europe's gayest city. The woman of the world, the role of Miss Theby, who brings on sorrow by her extravagance, is a fusion of the gentle and the selfish. A child actress helps make the keen drama more tender. "The Knockout," . lively comedy, com pletes the bill. "SOrij OF BROADAVAV" IS BILL Valeska Suratt and . W. E. Shay on Film at Majestic. Valeska Suratt has proved a draw ing card at the Majestic, where "The Soul of Broadway" will be seen all f-week. Valeska appear! as the fascin ating dancer and plays opposite Will iam E. Shay, who as Benneit robs his bank and goes to prison for Valeska for seven years. An old man, rich and foolish, follows like a nemesis through out the stirring production, as the suit or of Valeska. In a setting made absolutely of play ing cards and dice the scene of the "Gambling; Pen of the Woman of the Black Mask" is enacted. After -Bennett returns from prison he marries the daughter of the owner of the gambling den and is discovered by Valeska. Tense scenes follow as Valeska re peatedly fails to entice Bennett. Driven mad by her failure and humiliation, the "vampire woman" stumbles 'down a long flight of stairs in the luxurious gaming house and adds by her death a sensational climax. The Wallingford series are also seen. ANAEMIC PEOPLE Need More Iron in the Blood. If you are anaemic, you need more Iron in your blood, and tho tell-tale symptoms are a pale face colorless lips, ashen finger nails, poor circulation and short breath, and more serious dis eases are easily contracted when in this condition. Mr. W. H. Hodges, of Kansas City. Mo., says: "I suffered from the effects of bad blood, was run down, dizzy, had headaches and did not feel like work ing. I had tried Beef, Iron and Wine without any help. After taking Vlnol four days I noticed an improvement and its continued use built up my blood and my bad feelings disappeared like magic." The bad effects of poor, devitalized blood cannot be overestimated, and it is the peptonate of iron and the true cod liver extracts contained in Vinol, to gether with beef peptone, that enriches the blood, improves the circulation and in this natural manner builds up health and strength.
