10 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, JULY 3, 1916. CITIZENSHIP THEME FILLS UP CHURCHES Tvten in Large Numbers Attend Services Sermons Are Rousingly Patriotic. SONGS BEFIT OCCASION All Denominations Hear Talks on Americanism National Prob lems and Great Issues Are Discussed. Portland people went to church yes terday as they do on few Sundays save Easter and Palm Sunday. They came out to the morning: service as enthus iastically as they turn out to some frreat public gathering, and sans the National song's with a religious-patriotic fervor. Ministers discussed National prob lems. Some took sayings of the great leaders of America, both past and pres ent, and wove their sermons about them. Others discussed men and measures. All of them had "citizen ship" and "Americanism" in their talks: The Good Citizenship services were confined to no one sect. Protestants. Catholics; Episcopalians and the re&t hung up the flag and had praise serv ice. A notable feature of Good Citizen ship Sunday was the presence of many more men at the churches than attend the regular Sunday services. In some of the churches pews were reserved for the G. A. R. and the Woman's Relief Corps, and ministers gave thanks on behalf of the congregation for eurvices rendered by the veterans. Temperance topics were the theme of some pastors. In connection with Good Citizenship Sunday, a patriotic service was given last night at Cathedral Hail, Seven teenth and Couch streets. Many of the Catholic clergy attended and patriotic airs were sung. Hall F. Lusk gave the address. TUl'E PATRIOTISM IS TOPIC Pastor Says God Wilt Not Save Re public Unless People Act. "True Patriotism" was the topic of Ttev. E. Olin Eldridge's sermon in Mount Tabor Methodist Church yester day morning. He said in part: "Dead indeed must be the American i citizen who does not feel on this day a sense of pride for his country. Next to Christ comes country. God will not cave a republic whose people refuse participation in it. I " ith freedom of speech ana action, i a free press and a free spiritual church in a free state, you have the enduring foundations of National liberty. Based upon these the Republic shall ever en dure, and "Old Glory' will continue to lead the vanguard of the world's prog ress and civilization. "Our flag is the recognized emblem of intelligent citizenship, constitutional llbertv and personal freedom. Its stars light the pathway of nations and em phasise the right or men to own mem selves. "Our National birthday comes to us freighted with the hallowed memories of multitudes who have sacrificed their lives that this Republic might continue to be 'the land of the free and the home of the brave." At this moment thou sands of our citizens are under arms. "The flag must guarantee the pro tection of our people in .every lana. Our resources are abundant, our 'pre paredness' should be the same. A great Nation cannot be conducted on a small basis. "The lesson of the present European struggle is not war because ol pre paredness, but war because of unequal preparedness. It is not so much econ omy as it is efficiency that is the de mand of the hour. Loyalty to our txov- ernment and its institutions is the true test of American citizenship. "In a republic every voter is a ruler. The only solid basis of good govern ment is the individual conscience. which seeks to know whit is right and dares to do it. "Next to the sin of voting wrong is that of not voting at all. The neglect of the suffrage, by those best calcu lated to exercise it, is one of the grav est of our National perils." "FIVE PRINCIPLES" IS THEME Eellwood Presbyterian Pastor Talks on Americanism. "The Five Principles of Americanism" was the subject of the sermon by Rev. W. G. McCullagh, last night in the Spo kane-Avenue Presbyterian Church, Sell wood. In the morning a patriotic serv ice was held in the Sunday school with an address by a G. A. K. man. At the night service, in accordance with the general request that the churches emphasize good citizenship. Ttev. McCullagh spoke on the foregoing topic. The five points of Americanism which he emphasized are as follows: First The principle of prayer on the tT.,- h Vi- V-f m nition of the mercies and blessings of I . AMAViAn Ut ...... ...... 1 God is one of the true bases of Ameri canism, all resting on the Lord's prayer. Second That we recognize that there can be no real liberty in this country without intelligence, and hence this country has a National system of edu cation, open and free to all boys and girls, and guarded with jealous care by the whole country. Third That this country is a God fearing Nation, a Christian Nation which Is the foundation of Its greatness I and the hope of its future perpetuity Fourth That man does not exist for the institutions, but that our institu tions exist for the use and blessings of our citizenship. Fifth That we hold the doctrine of democracy that all men are equal be fore God, although there may be dif ferent standards, the equality of men in tnis country being emphasized. 1'1'ltE AMERICANISM URGED Piedmont Methodist Pastor Kaps lljllien"in Citizenship. Rev. A. L. Hutchison, of Piedmont Presbyterian Church, rapped the "hyph enated American" In his sermon last night on "Pure Americanism." The pastor maintained that no man who was a citizen should have an interest in any other but the American flag. "I believe that on the Fourth July we should have a monster service in some public place, where the flags of all lands were draped. I would like this assembly to include every citizen who has arrived at the voting age. The CASTOR I A For Infants and. Children. $$KInd Yea Have Always Bought' Bear, the W.

A band should play patriotic airs and all the men should raise the right hand and pledge allegiance to the flag. As the pastor pronounced a fitting prayer, tne stars and Stripes should be raised and all other flags be lowered. Such a service would go far to fuse all nations into a closer relation and purer Americanism," said Dr. Hutclii son. "One of the candidates for President has declared himself for "pure Ameri- canism," and that is what I take for my theme tonight. We must hasten the elimination of the 'hyphenated citi zen, for pure Americanism is the blending of the aspirations of many races. From each of these came a ray of intellect and light that has become focused in the glowing sun of a new republic," said Dr. Hutchison! TAX FOR FESTIVAL EAST SIDE BUSINESS MEX'S CLUB HAY INITIATE AMENDMENT, Theory Is That Portland's Annual Holi day Should Not Be Made Burden on Few, The directors of the East Side Busi ness Men's Club may prepare an in itiative measure amending the city charter so as to permit of the Rose Festival being financed by general tax ation and not by contributions, as has been done in the- past. The club held special meeting Saturday, at which time the matter was considered at some length. It was the consensus of opinion that the millage plan Is the best and fairest, taking the burden from the few business men and distributing it on all taxpayers instead. After extensive consideration, the matter was referred to the board of directors for investigation and action. The board is composed of J. Dan- nells. president: H. B. Catton, vice- president; L. M. Lepper, secretary- treasurer; II. B. McFaui, T. J. Kowe, H. L.. Camp, F. B. Egan, M. O. Collins and Dan Kellaher. This Is the second time the club has taken up this matter, the first time being two years ago. but that time did not seem ripe for the movement. According to members of the club, the time has come to place the Rose Fes tival on a permanent basis. The resolution adopted reads: "That the directors of the East Side Business Men's Club be authorized to investigate, and if considered wise, to prepare and initiate a measure for an amendment of the city charter by which the Rose Festival shall be fi nanced by general taxation In future not by contributions, as has been 7 i, in " j 1 , done in the past, in order that all may have an equal part in supporting the Festival in which all have a com mon interest. STRIKERS SEEK RETURN THIRTY O.-TV R. A TUNNEL MEN VOTE TO GO BACK TO WORK, Chairman of Strike Committee Says Result Has Bio Official Standing. Mass Meeting Scheduled. Thirty-six O.-'W. R. & N. tunnel strikers attended the meeting called by A. K. Anderson, a member of the strike cammittee. at Columbia Park yester day and 30 of them voted to go back to work at the old scale of wages. Al though more than 1100 men are out only 36 men were present at the meet ing. At. A. natnaway, cnairman 01 tne strike committee, was against any re turn to work under the old scale of wages. A petition previously circulat ed asking the right to go back at the old scale has been signed by several hundred of the strikers. "The action taken by Mr. Anderson in calling this meeting and voting to go to work has nothing to do with the strike," said Mr. Hathaway. "He had no authority to call a meeting, as that Is a function of the strike committee, composed of five members. I will meet in the near future with the strike com mittee and arrange for a mass meeting of all the strikers to be held at Arion Hall and if the men think they ought to go back to work at the old scale that will be done. The contractors have taken the stand that thw work will not proceed again until the controversy is settled suffi ciently to have practically the complete iorce at work.

They were as delighted aa I. I have not been here very long, but expect we will be fighting soon. I am one of the Scotch boys, but am with the New Zealand forces, as I joined in New Zealand. I hope you will get this note all right. If you care to reply I should be delighted to hear from you." Miss Drake refuses to divulge the name and address of her soldier corre spondent. "All the same.

Dr. Boyd Says American ism Only Campaign Issue. NATION AT DECIDING POINT Development of Purpose, Diplomacy - and Power, or Rec-essiorTto Less Dignified Place ; In .World Is the Choice Named. "The only issue that is before the people of the United States in the com ing Presidential election is the rescue of Americanism from the weakness and flabbiness into which it has fallen through vacillation and uncertainty and through the destructive elements that have been working within the country," said the Rev. J. H. Boyd, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in his sermon on "The Broader Aspects of Patriotism," yesterday morning. "God grant that Americanism may be born anew out of the great campaign which is before us. "President Wilson has been a weak and vacillating man. Shall we con demn him for it? There never was a man who sat in the Presidential chair who more accurately represented the temper of the people over whom he ruled. The weakness of President Wil son is the weakness of the American people, the uncertainty and vacillati-ju of the American mind. "The United States has come at last to a place where we have got to reccdo from the position of a large and digni fied Nation, to recede from the benevolent principles of the Monroe Doctrine, recede from the position of a Nation that would lead all the world toward peace and brotherhood, or we have got to develop an adequate di plomacy, one with backbone and de termination, and backed by the only argument that has weight in the coun cils of the nations, the power to inforc? that for which we stand. Conditions Make for Chaos. "Conditions of social and political thought in the United States are mak ing for chaos. "There is no true Americanism burn ing in the heart of the hyphenated American. I care not what country he comes from. "The hyphenated citizen is a menace and a weakness in the country, re gardless of his origin." Dollar diplomacy" was pointed out by Dr. Boyd as another of the forces that tend to weaken the strength and purity of the true American ideal. "Under the ideal of dollar diplomacy the Nation becomes a mean and con temptible thing, existing only for the purpose of extending business and in creasing dividends. Business Presses for War. "We have seen the spectacle of Presi dent Taft and President Wilson, both urged continually to employ armed force against Mexico to make it nos- sible for great business powers to go into juexico ana dig the silver from her mines .nd pump the oil from her wells and reap the harvest from the plantations of rubber and Jute. There is a third element in the coun try which is making for the undoing of our National strength which believes that there is nothing so valuable as to be left alone in quiet and prosperity. "I wish we could take our boys into training camps and drill and bruise them out of some of the softness that they are being trained into." USE OF GHEER ADVISED REV. E. A. WOODS TELLS OF NEED OF GIVING PRAISE FREELY. Husbands Besonsrht to Continue Laud ing Wives Even After Newness of Marriage Has Departed. Simple statements of facts, without any oratorical embellishments, were in cluded in the sermon by Rev. E. A. Woods, at the White Temple yesterday morning. Using as a theme "The Christly Message of Good Cheer," Rev. Mr. Woods asserted that It was the first fundamental of the Christian to carry good cheer everywhere. "Christ did not give good cheer to his disciples alone," said Rev. Mr. Woods. "His smiles and his praise were be stowed generally. "Good cheer is contagious. The physi cian who carries into the sickroom sun- ' shine has acquired a great part of his "Man can do his best work when he receives the good cheer of his fellows or his employer. Man cannot be cour ageous without praise. Praise and good cheer make him grow in strength of character. Rev. Mr. Woods asserted that a man should not" stop lauding his wife when the newness or married existence had worn. He exhorted men and women to display their affection for each other deopite their years. BAND CONCERT POSTPONED Opening of Season Now Scheduled for Tonight at South Park.
