REMARRIAGE IS OPPOSED Episcopal Rector Says "Grass Wid ows" Who Use Maiden Names Are Pretending to Be Elig ible to Be Brides. The "grass widows" who with their wiles try to deceive the public by us lng- the title "Miss" and their maiden names and the "un-married" men who go into society as bachelors when In realitv thev are divorced 'men, came under the sledge hammer of dlsap nrnsil nf Kv. Thomas Jenklna. rector of St. David'n Episcopal Church, Satur- ilav nla-ht when he preached on 'the Rublect "Christian Marriage, or Sha for the purpose of re-marriage. Is wrong, absolutely wrong," said Mr. Jenkins. "If it is wrong for one, it is wrong for all. If Christ is supreme, there is no question about it. His law must be obeyed. Tbs girl Is silly; the man ts a fool who will run the risk of marriage with one who, accord ing to Christ's law, has no right to marry. If we obey God happiness is assured. America is made miserable by this damnable Institution the di vorce court which Is the open door to re-marriage. What right has the state to transgress the law of God? For a right marriage there should be first baptism, consent, witnesses that are known to the minister, mutual qualities and agreement about religion." GILL CASE FLARES UP C.

"The most devilish, the most des picable thing of all to me te the woman who has been divorced and who gets back her maiden name. Think of her posing as a maiden when she has been married! She ts putting temp tation In the way of our young men who should be protected. he has no right to offer her hand and heart to a husband as though he were a maiden. Divorced Men Assailed. Of the divorced man he said: "I wish the man who has put away his wife by divorce could be branded. I wish he might be compelled to carry around his wife's name as well as his own forever." "in most states the laws are In con flict with the laws of God," said the rector, and he proceeded to quote passages of scripture, which Justified his statement that "divorce is an evil and that re-marriage is a curse to the family and the state." The Rev. Mr. Jenkins told his parish- loners that he frequently refuses to mar ry persons who have been divorced and that when asked why, he always answers that he does so to fulfill the law of Christ which "states explicitly that a second marriage while both parties of the first ceremftny are liv ing, is adultery and is against the law of God." "I mean to preach theword of God and try to carry truth to the hearts and souls of men. I may make some people uncomfortable, but it is my duty to make them miserable if they are wrong and then to make them see the way of truth and of Christ. Contract Has no Time Element. "Instead of 'Peace on earth, good will to men,' It ehould be 'Peace on earth to men of good will.' Of course If you aren't a Christian and dooli-l pretend to be. this will not bother you.

United States District Attorney for Oregon, probably will go to Seattle today as special prosecutor In Illicit whisky lmporta tion cases involving the Billingsley brothers, recently Indicted, who charged they were getting protection from Mayor HI Gill, of Seattle. When the Billmgsleys were Indicted they charged that they had paid Mayor Gill for immunity from arrest for their illegal receipts of "booze." It Is said that & controversy arose between the United States Attorney's office In S attle and Mayor Gill, both sending re quests to the United States Attorney- General for special legal representa tives. Their requests at first were denied and the matter temporarily died down Through some force it has again been fanned, until the requests for a spe cial prosecutor have been granted. The Attorney-General has advised Mr. Reames that there are Important matters In Seattle that command Im mediate attention, and that if there are no matters so urgent nere mat Air. Reames cannot get away he should hold himself In readiness to go at any time. CODE IS EXPLAINED Federal Engineer Points Out Features of Road Bill. MR. YE0N GIVES BACKING Dr. Hewcs Tells of Plan for System of Highways Under ' Direction of Commission and for In crease in Revenues. How the new model highway code is framed was discussed by Dr. L. I. Hewes, district engineer of the Fed eral iiiee of Public Ronda .f ,. memDers council lunoiieon of the Cham Der or commerce, and John B. Teon, roadmaster for Multnomah County, spoke on some of the effects that will come from the highways constructed under the system, if the code bill goes mruugn ine legislature. JJo you realize that von hm nm. thing better than the California cli mate in The Dalles and Hood River, within easy reach of us by automobile, with the new highway that is built?" Mr. Teon asked. Do you know that there are more sunny days In The Dalles than there are in Los Angeles? "Oregon has the best things In the world to offer the people If we only make them accessible through Froads. I indorse the entire plan for a highway code as It has been outlined by Dr. Hewes." Auto Men Frr I M. O. Wilkins, president of the Au tomobile Association, declared that the fore, the office of state engineer is drawn upon in the present proposed code to supply a member of the commission. Part to Be Given Conntles. "There is created a state highway fund for the construction of state high ways. After there has been deducted from that fund sufficient money to run the state highway department, or overhead and engineering expenses and an amount sufficient to maintain state highways already built, and a sum suf ficient to meet the Federal aid. the remainder is apportioned to the several counties 1.. proportion to their valua tion for direct aid to those counties which apply for it in further construc tion of sections of state roads within the borders of the respective counties. "To provide the state highway fund. section 14 of article II suggests that the - state raise the present quarter mill tax to half a mill. To do this, if tt Is necessary to amend the law creatine a tax limitation of 6 per cent, a narallel amending act Is included in the code, exempting appropriations lor highways. Fees to Bo Raised. "The state highway fund shall also. by section 14. receive automobile reve nues and fines, and a parallel act amending the motor vehicle daws sug cuests a schedule of charges for auto mobile licenses Intended practically to rinuhle the nresent revenue. "Section 16 provides for the use of convict labor. "To enable local road officials to avail themselves of the trained serv ice of the state highway engineer ana his assistants. It is provided In section 18 that they must submit plans to his office for any road work costing In excess of f 1000. Provision is also made for abolishing the road supervisors. COMMISSION RULE URGED Pendleton Stay Vote on Proposition Embracing City Manager. PENDLETON, Or- Jan. 15. (Special.) Pendleton may again vote on the proposition of having a commission proposed Increase In automobile license form of government and a city man GYPSUM RATE IS DP Competitors Oppose Plea of Eastern Oregon Company. DECISION IS NOT REACHED Petitioner Tells State Commission That Plant Paying Wages of $6000 Monthly May Close if Relief Is Xot Granted. A hearing of the Gypsum case, af fecting the rates to be allowed between Gypsum. Or., and Portland on the lines of the O.-W. R. A N. Company for the transportation of plaster, was held yes terday before the Public Service Com mission of Oregon. The case hinges upon the so-called "fourth section," which makes it unlaw ful to transport freight between given points at a lower rate than Is charged between Intermediate points. The con tention of the Paclflo Ume A Gypsum Company, of Gypsum, is that competi tion In the Portland marker Is a serious menace to the success of Its business. A rate of $1 a ton Is requested between Gypsum and Poctland. W. T. Noel, sales manager for the applicant company, represents this side of the suit. Representing other shippers are James A. Keller, of the Pacific Portland Cement Company, of San Francisco, and W. R- Nichols, of the Pacific Coast Gypsum Company, of Tacoma, who as sert that a differential of $1.90 a ton already exists In favor of the plant at Gypsum. Although a rate of II a ton is allowed by the railroad between Tacoma and Portland, the raw ma'erlar for the Tacoma plant is shipped from Alaska at a cost of $1.60 a ton, which adds con siderably to Its handicap in the Port land market. The San Francisco product, although shipped here by water, is brought In the raw state from Roundhouse, Nev, which adds to the cost of production. It Is maintained by the San Francisco ana Tacoma manufacturers that the excellence of their products, and not their low expense, accornts for their success In the Portland market. Answering these assertions, Mr. Noel asserts that unless a lower rate is giv en from Gypsum to Portland, his plant will have to suspend operations. Other fields of activity north and west of Gypsum, he says, are shut off because of competition. The plant at Gypsum, according to his testimony yesterday la capitalized at a figure between $500.- 000 and $600,000, employs from 60 to 100 men and has a payroll of $6000 month. Representing the O.-W. R. & N. in the suit Is R.Blaine Hallock. tax agent In the Portland offices. The Public Service Commission has taken the case under advisement.

Franklin Bell, head of the Western Department of the United States Army, arrived In the city yester day to attend the coming-out party of Miss Mary Bacon, which took place at the Hotel Multnomah last night.

"We are more than willing to have the, tax on automobiles raised if we are sure that the money thus raised Is to go to the improvement of the highways." In his address on the form of the code. Dr. Hewes went Into considerable detail as to Its plans. "The first section creates a State Highway Commission to watch and guide continually the highway policy of the state," he said. "Where the experience" and knowl edge of any state officer are particu larly valuable in the work of a State Highway Commission there Is good rea-so-n to make use of such ability.
