TITE 3IORNTXG OltEGOXIAN, MONDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1916. " 11 APPEAL VOICED MAKE NATION TO DRY Oregon Temperance Workers at Mass Meeting Indorse Federal Amendment. CONGRESS URGED TO ACT Bishop Sumner Condemns Use ol Beer and Points to Economic and Moral Advantages to Bo Gained by Prohibition. Oregon yesterday Joined with tie ether states of the Union In the ap peal for National prohibition. A forceful meeting of earnest men and women at the Public Library yes terday afternoon adopted resolutions calling upon the Oregon Senators and Representatives in Congress to sup port the National prohibition amend ment. Everyone present also agreed to write personal letters to Senators Lane and Chamberlain and Representative McArthur, urging them to vote for the amendment. Yesterday was National Prohibition Day all over the country. Temperance workers gathered in various cities of the several states to give public ex pression to the public sentiment for a iry Nation. Bihep Condemns Beer Drinking. Bishop W. T. Sumner was the princi pal speaker at the Library meeting. Bishop Sumner reported the results of investigations that he has made into the prohibition question covering a period of more than a decade. As dean of the Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul in Chicago he engaged in social service that brought him into close contact with the horrible results of the liquor traffic In contrast with that situation, he pointed out, is the improved moral, social and economic tone of cities that enjoy the advantages of prohibition. He told of his investigations on this subject and declared that the evidence of business men manufacturers and nearly all Intelligent observers is over whelmingly in favor of prohibition. Beer drinking, he said. Is a greater evil in many instances than whisky drinking. It ruins thousands of people who are too poor to buy stronger drinks. "They used to tell us," he continued, "that the saloon was the poor man's club. J agree with the use of the term, but not with the way it is accented. The accent ought to be on the first word. It certainly is a 'poor man's club the poorest that I know of." Church Advocates Prohibition. He told, too, of a pastor of an Epis copal church in Oregon under Bishop Sumner's Jurisdiction who recently Preached a sermon favoring prohibi tion. The next day one of the richest and most influential members of the congregation threatened the pastor and actually cut his subscription for sup port of the church in two. , The pastor went to the bishop, troubled. "I told him to preach prohibition," declared the bishop. "If the church can't be supported unless the pulpit Is muzzled on questions that are moral as well as political, it may Just as well close its doors." Other speakers were J. P. Newlll, A. C. Newell and Mrs. Jennie M. Kemp, state president of the "W. C. T. U. Mr. Newell grew optimistic over the imme diate prospects of obtaining Nation wide prohibition. He said that the business men of the country favor it. and that they are rapidly creating public- sentiment in its support. Only 300 Conntles Have Saloons. Mrs. Kemp told briefly of the recent National W. C. T. U. convention at Indianapolis, which she attended. She reminded the audience that of the 254S counties in the United States fewer than 300 retain saloons. The liquor men themselves have largely given up the fight, she con tinued. In the recent "dry" campaigns in Nebraska and Missouri the breweries refused to contribute to the "wet" cause, realizing-, they said, that theirs was a losing fight, anyway. Mrs. M. L. T. Hidden presided at the meeting. Mrs. Lucia F. Additon had charge of the music. Mrs. Mattie Sleeth opened the meeting with prayer. Howard Moore entertained with a vocal solo. Miss Woody playing the accompaniment. REAL 'BONE DRY LAW WANTED Eugene Citizens Ask Legislature to Prohibit Possession of Liquor. EUGENE, Or., Dec. 10. (Special.) lie-solutions ursrinsr the state Lieg"is!a for tlie chance to Sieal Catarrh After an experience of 25 years, during which time 50 million Americans have used Kondon's Catarrhal Jelly, the manufacturers of this remedy feel so sure that it will relieve catarrh that they offer to pay for a chance to prove its benefit to any catarrhal sufferer. They announce that any resident of this community can go'to almost any drug store and get a com plimentary trial can at the expense of the manufacturers. If the druggist has no gratuitous packages, the person may buy a 25 cent tube with the unqualified understanding that if that first tube does not do that person more than a dollar's worth of good, he or she can get their quarter back from either the druggist, or the Kondon Com pany at Minneapolis. Over 35,000 druggists know Kondon's Catarrhal Jelly is effective, harmless, clean and pleasant to apply and they know the Kondon people will gladly live up to this offer "quarter back if not worth a dollar."

RATE HEARING TO COMMENCE TODAY Entire Question of "Long and Short Haul Clause" Being Settled Over Again. TARIFFS TO BE REVISED Spokane Principal Contender for Curtailment of Preferential" to Coast Points and Testimony Taken at Several Places: Rates on all transcontinental freight shipments both eastbound and west bound are involved in a series of hearings to be opened in Portland this morning by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The entire question of 'Hong and short haul" rates is to be determined finally, this time, it is presumed. Arrayed on one side of the contro versy are Portland, Tacoma, Seattle, San Francisco and all other Pacific Coast cities enjoying tidewater termi nals. Opposed to them are Spokane, Reno, Nev., Phoenix, Ariz., and similarly sit uated interior cities, but principal among them is Spokane. In fact, the remarkable activity of Spokane has given the entire transcontinental rate controversy the name "Spokane ' case.' The railroads form a thlry party to the proceedings, but their position co incides largely with that of the Coast terminals. The terminal cities and the railroads hold to the belief that the railroads should be permitted to meet the water rates on transcontinental traffic, even though those rates sometimes ae lower than rates on the same commodities to interior points. "Long and Short Hani" Issue. Spokane insists on a strict interpre tation of the long and short haul principle. She contends that It is un Just for the carriers to charge more for a shorter than for a longer haul on the same class of freight. The Commission, in its decision of June, 1911, accepted the view of Port land and the other terminal cities, but since then, on the Insistence of Spokane and her allies, has modified that view materially. In fact, the new rates, ef fectlve January 1, will almost wipe out the pref erentials enjoyed by the terminal cities. Now the Commission has decided to hear the entire controversy once more and build a new system of rates from the ground up. With that idea in mind a series of hearings was scheduled. They started at Chicago two weeks ago and have progressed at Salt Lake City and at San Francisco. The Portland hearing is scheduled to continue for three days. Another three-day session is scheduled for Spo kane at the end of the week. The local hearing will open at 10 o'clock this morning In the Federal Courtroom. Examiner Thurtraoll, rep resenting the Commission, will preside. Railroad Attorney Arrives. H. A- Scandrett, Interstate commerce attorney for the Union Pacific, arrived in Portland yesterday, and will handle the railroads' end of the case. Other railroad attorneys. however, will be present. Nearly all the transcontinental lines will have representatives in the persons of high traffic officials. Joseph N. Teal, attorney for the Port land Traffic & Transportation Associa tion, will examine the witnesses on be half of the North Pacific Coast term inals. H. W. Mitchell, president of the Port land Traffic and Transportation As sociation, and head of an agricultural implement firm, probably will be the principal witness this morning. H will present evidence to show that the Industries peculiar to this territory will be seriously Impaired if the rates are readjusted in accordance with the Spo kane plan. It would be impossible, ac cording to Mr. Mitchell's reasoning, to ship grain, lumber, fruit, wool, hops. fish and other commodities produced locally, by rail under such a schedule. Similarly westbound traffic would be affected, particularly structural iron and steel used In the local shipbuilding plants. REVEL BRINGS ON RAID MAN AND WOMAN ARE ARRESTED AND LIQUOR SEIZED. Room Well Stocked With Alcoholic Drtrfka Is Found at 1624 First Street, After Lons Watch. Sounds of - revelry from the apart ments of E. E.

Under Present Condition Good Lock Said to Be Only Reason Grave Ac cident Has Not Occurred. A bill to regulate the practice of architecture Is being prepared by the Oregon Society of -Architects for sub mission to the Legislature. A commit tee has studied laws bearing on the subject. In New Tork, California, Illinois and other states for pointers and ex pects to present a well digested statute. For a long time the need of such a law has been evident to those who have given the subject any thought," said irnst Kroner, secretary of the Oregon Society of Architects. "At present any person, with or without qualifications. may announce himself as an architect and practice drawing and superintend ing or Duiidings. wnen an employer engages an architect without skill or experience he frequently finds his building irrenara bly damaged. From this he has no pro tection as he cannot judge In most cases the qualifications of the man he has engaged until too late. It is more- good luck than anything eise tnat some catastrophe has not oc curred to call public attention to this condition. We have had some warning. Not long ago a brick school building nearing completion fell . down from faulty foundations, and several roofs blew away in the storms this Fall. For tunately these accidents were without loss of life. "In Portland the nroDertv owner and the public enjoy protection from these dangers only through the rigid inspec tion or tne Dullding department. The proposed act would entail no expense on the taxpayers, as it provides for a registration fee for architects which will cover the cost of the adminlstra tion of the law."
