ORGANIZATION IS EFFECTED
Governor to Issue Proclamation
Similar to That of President-
Setting Aside January 2 7
' as Day for Contributions.
PR KSIDKXT WILSON'S PROCLA
MATION. "Whereas. I have received from
the Senate of the I'nited States
a resolution, passed January 6,
1916. that the President of the
United States be respectfully
asked to designate a day on
which the citizens of the country
may give expression to their
sympathy for contributing to the
funds now being raised for the
relief of the Jews in the war
zone;
"And. -whereas, I feel confident
that the people of the United
States will be moved to aid the
war-stricken people of a race
which has Riven to the United
States so many worthy citizens:
"Now. therefore. I. Woodrow
Wilson. President of the United
States, in compliance with a
suggestion of the Senate thereof,
do appoint and proclaim January
27, 1S16.' as a day upon which the
people of the United States may
make such contributions as they
feel disposed for the aid of the
stricken Jewish people."
Pursuant to the proclamation Issued
by President Wilson, setting a definite
date for the contribution by people of
the United States to the relief of the
war-stricken Jews in Russia, Galicia
and Poland, representative business and
professional men of Portland yester
day met at the Chamber of Commerce,
listened to a clear statement of the con
ditions of the Jews in the war zone and
an appeal for their immediate and
generous aid given by Rabbi Jonah B.
Wise, and effected a definite organi
zation to handle local contributions.
The committee named by the chair
man of yesterday' meeting, A. L. Mills,
to take the matter of local contribu
tions In charge, will be headed by
Mayor Albee. The other members of
the committee are W. I). Wheelwright,
W. B. Ayer. Henry Corbett, Emery Olm
stead. C. C Colt. W. P. Olds. I. A.
Lewis. J. C. Ainsworth. P. W Leadbet
ter. T. B. Wilcox and Father O'Hara. A
meeting of the committee will be held
today, when definite action will be
taken for raising the Portland fund.
Covernor Promise! Proclamation.
Governor Withycombe was present,
and on the conclusion of the meeting
signified his intention of issuing a
proclamation aimilar to that of the
President.
After outlining the purpose of yes
terday's meeting, called by a commit
tee of prominent Portland Jews, headed
by Ben Selling. Mr. Mills read a copy
of the proclamation of President Wil
son, and then declared that "it Is a
pleasure for me to act as chairman at
a meeting of Portland business men
called to consider the President's proc
lamation. "In my business experience in Port
land our Jewish citizens have never
asked the public for aid In caring for
the sick and destitute. On the other
hand, they are alwaya ready to do their
part in caring for the sick and afflicted
of the city.
13,000.000 Are Destitute.
The situation that presents Itself
today is far more terrible than ever
before in the history of those now liv
ing. In Poland and Galicia there are
some millions of sick, destitute and af
flicted Jews, most of them being old
men. women and children. The young,
strong breadwinners of the families
have beendrafted into the armies of the
different powers, there to serve as sac
rifices to a war in which they them
selves have no voice.
"First the Russians swept across the
country, then the Germans, and these
miserably destitute people have been
swept back and forth across the 'land
before the great armies like chaff be
fore .a gale.
"Unless the generously-inclined peo
ple of the world come to their assist
ance with liberality, thousands, even
millions, will perish.
People Are Xow Outcasts,
T hope that the people of Portland,
In such a degree as each Individual can
afford, will do their part In the sup
port of a movement so that on Janu
ary 27. the date set by President Wil
son. Portland will again show the
world, as it did at the time of the
San Francisco fire, that it is ready
to come to the aid of those who are
sick and destitute."
Rabbi Wife, following Mr. Mills, de
clared that the position of the Russian
Jew. including the Jew of Poland and
Galicia. was a peculiar one. making him
absolutely an outcast- The fact that
the Russian Jew speaks a Germanic
language causes him to be feared by
Russians, making it impossible for
him to ally himself with the problems
of Russia, thus Insuring a certain de
gree of protection.
Burdens Experted With Benefits.
Emphasis on three points, that the
Jews have no special problem in the
United States: that aid from non-sectarian
contributors was asked after
long hesitation, and that the Jews of
Russia have to face a situation which
entitles them to the sympathy of the
world, was given by Rabbi Wise.
'The Jews of France. Germany. Eng
land and America and al enlightened
countries desire no separation from
their fellow citizens of various other
faiths in the matters of common wel
fare and responsibility to the state."
said Ir. Wise. "In peace they hope to
share its benefits and in war they de
sire to bear its burdens. The proclama
tion of our honored President intended
to meet a hideous anachronism, the
suffering of a great group of men and
women who are aliens and outcasts in
the land of their and their fathers na
tivity, the Russian Jew.
"Only once before have the Jews
asked aid of the general public That
occasion bespeaks the present need. It
was for Kishinieff. We ask with dif
fidence, not doubt. We know your
kindness and generosity. We had
rather not call upon it. but desire
primarily that each Jew should share
his loaf with our distressed co-religionists.
Rrmaaat Cares for Bulk.
"The burden Is becoming too heavy
for us. Of all the Jews in the world
four-fifths are in the warring armies
or staggering out of their paths. A
remnant of our faith is asked to aid
the bulk. Witn thip in mind we turn
to you to lend emphasis, force and ef-

fectiveness to the generous proclama
tion of our honored President.
"I wish to read vou a oaragraph from
the current Outlook. . Any paper might
contain the same and worse.
Some estimates place the number of Rus
sian refusfes at from 10.O0O.OlM to 13.000,

Tatlana committee, one of the most influ

after the second daughter of the Czar, who

By race, the refugees aro principally
Pole. Jews. Letts and Lithuanians, but
they come from all ranki and stations of
life, rich and poor alike, now all poor,
thrown from their homes with nothing but
the clothes on tnelr bodies by the grim
chances of war.
"Not these are refugees. In all
Belgium there are but 7,000.000 per

the Wintry steppes, not thrice ground

queror, but 10.000.000 to 15.000.000 with
no place to lay their heads.
Strange Lands Are Refuge.
"I need not dwell on the sufferings

"I refer you once more to the Out
look, pro-ally, even pro-Russian:
The theory was that to leave large masses
of civilians behind the forward-pushing
German lines would provide Germany with
a larRe number of spies, as well as with
sustenance for its armies.
To some eztent. too. It was believed that
buildings left standing In the Russian re
treat might serve as protection and cover
for German artillery. So everything was

ever the Russian lines retracted before the
unbearable pounding of the terrible German
guns, they left or.ly a desert for the Kaiser s
men to cross.
People Hated In Ruaala.
"Among the sufferers the Jews' fate
stands out. Tou ask Can one stana
out more hideous in such a tale of hor-
rorsT I answer, 'yes.' Russia hates
the Jew. He speaks a Germanic
tongue, hence he is hated as a. pos
sible spy. He has borne contempt and
blows but has defied his persecutors.
In the country Just described there
live 6.000.000 Jews. They are poor at
best; they are persecuted in peace:
they axe harassed at all times. What
must be their fate in war?
"No man can tell, but an can ieei
what the burden is I have so inade
quately suggested to your mind. This,
then, is partly why we ask you and
your colleagues to give emphasis, force
and effectiveness to the proclamation
of the President of our beloved coun
try."
Situation ! Reviewed.
The resolution! by the Senate says:
"Whereas, in. the countries now
encased in the war there are 9.000,000
Jews, the. great majority of whom are
destitute of food, shelter and clothing;
and,
"Whereas, millions of them have been
driven from their homes without wani
ng, denrived of an opportunity to
make provision for their most elemen
tary wants, causing starvation, disease
and untold suffering: and.
"Whereas, the people of the tjnitea
States of America have learned with
sorrow of this terrible plight of mil
lions of human beings and have most
generously responded to the cry for
help whenever such an appeal has
reached them: therefore, De it
"Resolved, that, in view of the mis
ery, wretchedness and hardships which
these 9,000.000 Jews are suffering, the
President of the United States be re
spectfully asked to designate a day on
which the citizens of the country may
give expression to their sympathy for
contributing to the funds now being
raised for the relief of the Jews in the
war zone."
Short Notice la Given.
The condition of the Russian Jews
was emphasized by Ben Selling, chair
man of the committee that called the
meeting.
"There are in the Russian army be
tween 400.000 and 500.000 Jews." said
Mr. Selling, "most of the sufferers from
the. ravages of the war being old men
and women. The Jews lose their resi
dence when once they leave a town in
which they have lived. When they are
forced by invading armies to leave
their homes that they have maintained
for so long they have no place to go.
"Millions have been compelled to
leave their homes on 24 hours' notice,
and since their ' neighbors know that
they are not allowed to take any of
their property with them, they are un
able to sell that property, thus escap
ing with only what they wear on their
backs.
Food and IVster Are Denied. '
"They are absolutely at the mercy of
the Russian officers and the few sym
pathizers they have are not permitted
to give them either food or water.
"Although the Jews all over the
United States have contributed to the
Red Cross Jnnd. the Russian Govern
ment has not allowed one cent of the
money to be used for the relief of the
Russian Jews. Their condition cannot
be realized.
"It is because of the Intensity of the
suffering being undergone by the Jews
that we invite participation in the con
tribution to their relief

POLITICAL GOSSIP
Representative McArthur Telegraphs Message to Republicans Emerinus
Versteeg to Run for Delegate to Democratic Convention.
CN. McARTHUR. Representative in
Congress from the Third Oregon
District, comprising Multnomah
County, telegraphed the following mes
sage which was read at the opening
meeting of the new Oregon Republi
can Club at the Central Library Thurs
day night:
"The critical position in which the
United States now stands among the
nations of the earth is due to the vac
ilating and cowardly policy of the
Democratic Administration. The coun
try's salvation lies in the return of
the Republican party to power. We
must forget factional differences and
work for party success. The club you
are organizing will prove a big factor.
Please enroll me as a 'charter mem
ber." Emerinus Versteeg is going to run
for delegate to the Democratic National
Convention. What is more to the point,
he will run as a Bryan delegate.
I have been a staunch supporter
of Mr. Bryan for many years." said Mr.
Versteeg. "and I am not going to desert
him now. simply because some of our
Federal office-holders want to dis
credit him for political reasons. I be
lieve in Mr. Bryan, and I thoroughly
favor his universal peace policy and
the one-term plank in the Democratic
platform. If it was not to be followed?
why was It written into the platform?
There are plenty of Democrats who
feel as I do about It. I shall run as
a Bryan delegate."
Mr. Versteeg Is an old-time and re
spected resident of Portland. He is
51 years old. and a retired brick man
ufacturer. W. H. Cannon, of Medford, candidate
two 'years ago for Democratic National
Committeeman, and one of the best
known Democrats in Oregon, is not a
candidate for delegate to the National
Convention at St. Louis. He makes
his position clear in the following let
ter to The Oregonian:
"My attention has been called to an

umns on January 17, wherein it is
stated that I am prominent among

"Permit me also to say in this con
nection that when I. was a candidate
for Democratic National committeeman
for Oregon I was not the candidate
of any wing or faction of the Demo
cratic oarty. but sought the honor of

SENATORS IN CONFERENCE
Specific Charge Concerns Only One.
Governor Lister Probably Will Be
Called to Stand Today.
OLYMPIA. Wash., Jan. .21. Judge
John R. Mitchell, of the Thurston
County Superior Court, before whom
John Ft Gillies, deposed claim agent for
the Industrial Insurance Commission,
is being tried on a charge of forgery,
today overruled the defense's objection
to introduction of evidence tending to
establish the fictitious character of the
series of 16 accident claims which
Gillies, as claim agent, Is alleged to
have passed as genuine.
Although the specific charge of for
gery is founded on the claim of spuri
ous "Carl Jackson," injured in road
work in King County, there .were 16
other claims Involved, which Judge
Mitchell ruled could be brought in to
show the system, by which the fund
was looted.
The defense argued that the state
would first have to establish conclu
sively the guilt of the defendant on the
Jackson claim, but Judge Mitchell held
that sufficient evidence had been intro
duced by the state to establish at least
a partial "guilty knowledge" on Gillies'
part, and therefore the batch of other
alleged fictitious claims might be in
troduced. Witnesses were then called to. show
that all of the claims were forged.
When court adjourned tonight wit
nesses were being called to show that
none of the original papers had been
marked, changed or altered by persons
who handled them during the investi
gation of the industrial insurance
frauds.
Governor Ernest Lister probably will
be put on the stand tomorrow, as he
also participated in the investigation
of the frauds.
"ALIEN" THRONG IS GAY
WHITE TEMPLE SOCIAL IS SIMU
LATED ELLIS ISLAND.
Immigrant Costumes and Characters
Are Assumed Young Folks Enjoy
Entertainment and Supper.
Ellis Island and its alien throngs
were transported to the White Temple
last night, when the Junior and Senior
Baptist Young Peoples' Union held its
monthly social. An array of dazzling
foreign costumes representing every
thing from Swedish peasant girls and
Italian fruit vendors to Sultans and
Indian Princesses made the affair in
teresting. Three stolid immigration
officers presided at the entrance of the
church, at the investigation station and
at the quarantine department. They
were Hallie Kibler, W. M. Grider and
Clarence Wright.
Mrs. William E. Hopkins, a mission
ary from India,' was there In a gor
geous native costume. A genuine Swed
ish costume with a quilted jacket and
several Spanish ballarinas were espe
cially attractive. Many of the boys
affected realistic and humorous make
ups. Dutch costumes were also In
evidence.
More conspicuous and admirable than
all others were the "Goddess or iid
erty" and "America," represented by
Miss Lea Worthy and Miss Lillian
Ward.
Each person brought along some
keepsake from his supposed native land
with a rhyme to explain the why and
wherefore of its presence. These were
read aloud and the articles inspected.
Besides a programme and several tab
leaux this was the chief feature of the
entertainment.
Just as at Ellis Island, the immi
grants are given a cup of coffee and a
slice of bread, so last night the guests
were given the same amount ot food
and afterwards sandwiches and dough
nuts. More than 80 attended.
