f ANTI-PIGKETING
I RALLY IS HELD
W. F. Woodward and B. C. Ball
Speakers at Chamber of
Commerce Luncheon.
: CAPITOL TO BE INVADED
; Labor's Weapon Declared to Be In-
j tlmldation and Easiness Men
i Are Urged to Join In Demand
j for More Stringent Law.
"We are not fighting Burt- Ball's
fight nor the fight of any employer
when we unite as business men to sup
port the bill against picketing, boy
cotting and bannering." declared W. F.
Woodward at the luncheon of the Mem
bers' Council at the Chamber of Com
merce yesterday.
"We are fighting: the fight for the
poor man who has no spokesman and
who wants to be glwn a chance to earn
a living unhampered in the place where
he chooses to work and when condi
tions suit him."
Mr. Woodward's address followed the
speech of Burt C. Ball, president of
the Willamette Iron & Steel Works.
In addition to his arraignment of
picketing by strikers as an assault
upon the freedom of labor, Mr. Wood
ward introduced some striking figure.
Indicating the degree of growth In
open-shop and closed or union-shop
cities.
"In Los Angeles, an operv-shop town,
the assessed valuation on property has
increased more than 300 per cent in 10
years; in San Francisco, a closed-shop
town, it has increased only about 50 per
cent in the same period. Los Angeles
is advancing by leaps and bounds un
der a system of freedom and tolerance,
while San Francisco is crawling for
ward on all fours, hampered by the
domination of the labor organizations."
Mr. Ball, in his address declared that
the existing statute is ineffective In
preventing violence when strikes are
on. because it is based on an error.
"It is based." he said, "on the theory
that there is such a thing as peaceful
picketing.
"As a matter of fact there is no
such thing as peaceful picketing. The
whole theory and practice of picketing
Is based on intimidation.
"This Intimidation is practiced in
various forms, sometimes reaching the
limit of physical violence.
"Our company has been In existence
In this city for almost 17 years and
during that time we have had about
four strikes. During each strike there
has been at least one or more cases of
actual physical violence, which was
serious enough to require police atten
tion. In all cases the only serious ob
tacle we encountered in building up
our forces was the intimidation of
workmen who were anxious to work.
"This intimidation was practiced not
only by the pickets on duty In front of
the plant but by others who were dele
gated to follow certain workmen to
their homes, particularly thosa living
in outlying districts, and threaten them
with violence if they did not stop work
ing and Join the strikers.
"Is it peaceful picketing for a gang
of about 30 or 40 men to surround one
man on his way to work and gradually
force him to walk in another direction
until they get him n to a ferry-boat
and see that he stays there until the
ferry starts? This is the kind of
peaceful picketing which causes that
same man to come to work by a totally
different route and enter our plant
through an adjoining plant in order to
avoid these peaceful pickets.
"Is it peaceful picketing which causes
us to engage incloseu motor buses and
have them back into our buildings
so that the more timid of our men can
enter them without going outside of
the building?
"From Km y own experience and ob
servation I can positively say that I
have never seen a. case of peaceful
picketing, and I can further say that
Intimidation is the only excuse for
picketing, and without intimidation
and violence picketing would be use
less." Ex-Mayor Rose, of Milwaukee, who
was a guest at the luncheon, declared
that if Oregon has no effective law to
prevent picketing and violence it should
get one at once.
"I am a friend of organized labor."
he said. "Organized labor is not to
blame for violence in strikes, but the
thugs, the leeches and the hangers-on
of organized labor are; and these
should be restrained by suitable laws
and such laws rigidly enforced."
Scores of pledges were made by men
present at the luncheon to join the ex
cursion which is to go to Salem this
afternoon to confer with the Mult
nomah delegation in behalf of the anti
picket bill.
It is indicated that between 150 and
200 wll participate in the trip.
The excursion will leave over the
Oregon Electric at 4 o'clock and will
have dinner in one of the hotels at
alem.
It is announced that those who go
on the trip should pay their fare on
board the train and thus have the ad
vantage of the excursion rate that has
been granted.
"The man who stays at his desk in
stead of going to Salem in an import
ant cause such as this fails In his duty,
and the Chamber of Commerce might
as well go out of business unless its
members arise to this occasion," said
Mr. Woodward.

CHILD
BY WILLIAM BYRON FORBUSH.PHJX
THIS Is the woman's age. And many
girls are entering the most spacious
days ever given to women handicapped
at the very threshold. Are you the one
who Is shackling your growing daugh
ter? The physical change that the con
ventions make for the girl who is be
coming a woman are those from liberty
to bondage. At 12 a girl weighs more,
is taller, can run faster, can climb trees
"better, than her twin brother. At 14.
when they "let down her dresses"
this brother is coached to play the
heroic field games of baseball and
football, and the girl retires to the
bleachers to look on.
The Sedentarr Bookworm.
Perhaps there Is a gymnasium in the
high school, to which the girl repairs
once a week to engage in mechanical
exercise which is not extensive enough
to awaken any Joy in using the body
or a definite development of posture ot
a sure command of the muscular
mechanism. Such a girl is very likely
to develop a bent, peering attitude, as
if she were forever reading a book.
The work at home is done by hired
folks. The houso gives no physical ex
ercise except dressing, and some girls
have assistance even in this. There
may be a daily walk In the park, a slow
processional that never brings the
blood to a tingle or starts the de
sire to exult In struggle and conquest.
Dancing may intervene, which Is Joy
ous and good, but it is indoors, under
artificial conditions, and without the
elements of spontaneity or play.
Body Shonld Clamor for Exercise.
One cannot have a healthy body
without being conscious of it. The
cloistered, anemic life I have' described
exaggerates the mental and emotional
to the ignoring of the physical. Such
a girl has little use for her body ex
cept to dose it. But a right body should
be continually clamoring for notice.
The muscles should ache for exercise,
the lungs for fullness and fresh air, the
legs for running, the arras for play.
The unnoticed body makes no demands
and also makes no resistance to dis
ease. This easily leads to a state of
low vitality and of dangerous lack of
tone.
She Has An In (crow Ins Conscience.
There Is a difference between the
conscience of a boyand that of a girl.
Each has a conscience, let us say. But
girl has an ingrowing conscience.
You know what an ingrowing con
science is? It is one that hurts. In
every-day life this means: a boy will
study a lesson till he gets tired; the
girl studies until she gets it.
Also girls, like women, bear pain
more patiently than do boys and men.
She Bends, Then Breaks.
Now, take a girl who never exercises
unless- she Is obliged to, give her five
studies in school and music lessons
added, allow her to sit up late once
or twice a week to dance or go to the
theater and what happens?- the plods
through it all, because she has a girl's
conscience, and she never complains.
because sne has a woman s patience.
But she will break down at the door
of college. Or she will be unfit to be
come a mother. Or she will sit in an
Invalid's chair while the army of tri
umphant womanhood marches into the
midst of the twentieth century.
Are you shackling your growing
daughter?
Don't Hake a Bugbear of the Doctor.
To the Editor. When Louis is sick
I have a good deal of trouble because
he is so afraid of the doctor that it
is hard to examine or treat him.
ALKEUA H.
1. Never use the doctor as a bogy
man. Don t threaten Louis with, "If
you don't take this medicine the doc
tor will come and give you something
worse. '
2. Select a genial, tactful family
physician and invite him to the house
socially to meet the children when
they are not ill. Pay him for such a
vtoit if you want to. it will be worth
it.
3. Tell many stories of the kind-
ness of physicians and represent them
always as desirous to bring healing
rather than pain.
4. Practice in play such ceremonies
as taking the pulse, holding the clin
leal thermometer, gargling, showing
the tongue, so that the child will be
proud rather than alarmed when the
doctor aeks for any of these.
6. Impress that medicine is to be
taken always. Let the question of
taste never become an issue. This
Is a matter of duty. If you find that
certain substances, such as castor
oil. simply cannot be borne, inform
the doctor in advance.
S. A good prelude to a professional
call is to suggest to the child that
he inquire for the doctor's little boys
or girls. This will take his mind off
himself and help the doctor gain his
confidence.
One mother suggests: "If the doctor
must give pain, be very careful to ex
plain why he hurt and how much worse
the hurt would be without his care,

Mothers With Souls of Their Own.
To the Editor. You said the other
day, "Xo woman can become a better
mother- by being a smaller woman."
But how can a mother practically work t
this out? To take care of children i
often involves the giving up of social i
opportunities, Women's clubs and even j
extended reading. How can these I
losses prevent one becoming a smaller .
noman? ERJiESTA P. S. I
It takes brains. And the use of :
brains in the scientific management of
a household is by no means a small
factor in making a woman bigger. I
venture to say that there is hardly a
woman who will carefully separate the
duties that belong to her motherhood
from those that are only mechanical
and then emphasizes the former and
neglect the other, who will not save
considerable time for culture. The
little that one can read or hear that is
helpful means more to the busy, alert
woman than the scattering reading
and listening of the idle woman.
Children are not forever engrossig.
School days bring Increased leisure In
the house. Training children to help
liberates the lives of mothers. I be
lieve every woman has room for a
hobby. I know a mother who, as we
say. "kept up her music." She did not
become a public performer, but she de
veloped into a delightful ballad sing
er. I know one who snatched mom
ents for art. She grew steadily, and
after her children were gone away
became a successful exihibtor in a
great gallery.
A Correction.
In our article for December 25 we
repeated the current rumor that An
ton Lang, the tjhrlstus ol the raaelon
Play, had perished In the war. We
are glad to know that the rumor is
untrue.
I am a personal fried of Mrs. Anton
Lang and received a letter from her
Saturday, telling me that Mr. Lang
is in perfect health, never was in the
war and never was a day sick the last
eight years. G. HOLYL,
