CONQUERING JAMES O'NEILL LAUDS THE ENNOBLING EFFECT OF ARMY Uniform Transforms Spirit of Drafted Man and Imbues Him With Patriotism, Says Eminent Actor. BY LEONE CASS BAER. W1 E were speaking of the drafted boys who went through Port land Tuesday, James O'Neil and I, and Mr. O'Neil had a bit of interesting chat to make about the ecnobling effect of the American uniform. A drafted lad comes into the Army meybe a bit reluctantly, we'll say, and without enthusiasm. Possibly his shoulders sag a bit' or are bent, may hap he's some underweight, and isn't particularly strong, although, of course. he is in good enough health to have been accepted. I saw dozens such to day. I'll wager you," said James O'Neil, "that in six weeks the relatives and friends of those boys won't know them. 'It is the -uniform of honor that will transform the youth. He will stand upright and his chest will be up. So will his chin. He will have taken on weight and he will be intensely pa- tiiotic. He will be surcharged with a tremendous desire to fight, and the sooner he is sent against the enemy the better pleased he's going to be. When a man puts on the American uni form he wants to live up to it. He feels that he Is expected to do It honor, just as the uniform honors him. If you talk to any young men in the camps they tell you Invariably that they are well-fed, splendidly treated. To a man they'll tell you that they like their soldier mates and officers. and that they want to outdo all the others in the big fight. Doesn't it seem logical then that boys who have this spirit when in camp on their own soil will be doubly eager to shine when tl.ey face enemies in Europe? "All reports sent out by British ana French from the front teil of the cour age and valor of American troops. It is the spirit that is within them tnat the French see and make note of, and that spirit was born in the American camps. It is my keen regret and echoed in the hearts of my two boys that they have both been unable to pass the physical tests. "Eugene, my youngest boy, and a promising playwright whose sketches and plays are Ju3t now becoming well krown, has had a pulmonary trouble for two years which has necessitated his 'iving in the open among the pine trees. My elder boy, James Junior, too has not been able to pass the test al though he has tried time and again. "If I were younger I'd go. I come fiom a country, Ireland, whose people are soldiers by instinct and preference. For over 250 years they have lived on promises In Ireland, and yet with their hearts aweary and their very souls worn out with hopes deferred, they have gone Into the conflict nobly, and More Condemnation Suits Started. Three more condemnation euits were started yesterday by the City of Port land in the programme to procure suf ficient ground for the Marquam Gulch park and playground. In the uit against C. P. Smith and others the city contends the property Is not valued at more than $3500 although the defend ants have refused to sell for that price. One suit Is directed against Nicoletta Dimarco, who owns property upon which the city has placed the value of $1904, and the third defendant is Pietro Perardinelll who has refused to sell his property at the city's offer of $932. 65 Gallons or Wins Found. Another alleged Illicit liquor merchant was taken Into custody .yesterday, when Deputy Sheriff George Hurlburt. ar rested Joseph Wohlgenuth at Third and Salmon streets. ' The man had several bottles of wine In his possession- when arrested, and led the deputy to the Repose Hotel. Twenty-third and Savier streets, where he turned over 65 gal lons of wine and 60 cases of beer ex tract. It Is alleged he has regular liquor customers In South Portland, and it was while In the act of making some deliveries that he was arrested yesterday. Arthur Rodax Bought. Arthur Ro dax, of Portland, Is wanted by the Portland chapter, American Red Cross. 204 Corbett building. The Bureau of communications of the Red Cross has received a message for Mr. Rodax, presumably emanating from an enemy country, either from a prisoner of war or resident therein. If . Mr. Rodax will communicate his address to the Port land chapter, arrangements will be made for him to obtain this communi cation. Na'. -raxjzed German Is "Peeping Tom" Now. Fred Osten. a naturalized German, living at 6130 Fifty-ninth avenue, was fined $100 yesterday In Municipal Court for playing the "peep ing Tom" role in his neighborhood. Twice within the last few days he was caught by Paul G. Olson, a soldier, looking Into windows of houses at late hours of the night. He is married and is a patternmaker. - Ed Tracet Paroled. Ed Tracey, former East Side bootlegger, familiar to the Portland criminal courts, was given a six-months' jail sentence and fined $103 by Presiding Judge Morrow, upon his plea of guilty to a statutory charge. He was given a parole after the fine was paid. Babe Moore, who was Indicted Jointly with him, was or dered to pay a fine of $100. Center to Hold Picnic.

It is over 25 years ago that James O'Neil first visited Portland, and he says he could write a lengthy book aLout the changes the passing years have brought. "Monte Christo" was the play, and the old Newmarket Theater the place. Seven years aero he opened the present HelliT with Viola Allen in "The White Sister" and by a coincid erce he is occupying the same dressing room now when he s here as the old Judean father Jesse In "The Wander er," as he occupied in the opening play, when he was the "old priest In Miss Allen's play.

Return to Single Blessedness May Mean Army Draft. RECORD WILL BE KEPT Men Who Leave Wives or Fall to Provide Support Will Be in Di rect Line for Immediate Induction, to Service. Alarmed at the rapidly Increasing number of divorce cases filed in Mult nomah County, and believing that many of the men procuring divorces are of draft age and evading Army service be cause of improper classification, county officials yesterday announced that, starting at once, a careful check will be kept of every man who procures a divorce in this county or whose wife divorces him. Those who are of draft age and who have received deferred classification be cause of a wife or family will be sub ject to rigid Investigation. In every DIVORCE WAR ROAD case, the divorce proceedings will befeacn yer on the anniversary of his reported to the proper exemption board in order that the draft registrant may be reclassified. Men Evading; Army Duty. Deputy District Attorney Derapsey. who handles the non-support cases and many of the divorce cases for the Dis trict Attorney's office, declared yester day that a large number of men In this county are evading Army duty because of their failure to report changed home conditions brought about through the divorce courts. We have found that vouner fellows who have been placed in class 4 because or a wire or children, are either plain tiffs or defendants In many of the di vorce suits which are now filling the courts," he said. "After they have been divorced and are no longer the heads of families, they continue to escape Army duty because of their fail ure to report their cases to their ex emption boards. "Beginning at once, our office nlans to keep a careful check on all these men. Every time a man of draft age is before the local divorce courts his case will be closely scrutinized, and In any event, the facts as determined in court will be disclosed to the man's local ex emption board. We predict that there will be quite a number of men changed rrom class 4 to class 1 of the selective araii tnrougn tnis investigation.' i-resiaing judge Morrow, before whom all default divorce hrarlnm i- now being held, voiced his approval of this plan. He expressed the belief that mis inveMigaiion by the District At torney's office would brinar tn tlm , large numDer or men who hid behlnH their wives and children when an Army call is made, but who are not entitled to deferred classification, ltmiiv f morally.
