The dove of peace, which has roosted
at recent sessions of the board 'of di
rectors of the Portland Library Asso
ciation, fluttered from her perch at
the last one, when the issue of whether
the Library auditorium' should be used
as a rallying hall for radicalist meet
ings was fought to a finish for the
negative.
Dr. C H. Chapman, editorial writer
for the Evening Journal, and stormy
petrel of radicalism, precipitated the
strife Wednesday evening through the
presentation of a request that use of
the Library auditorium be granted for
the holding of a protest meeting against
the recent convictions of Eugene V.
Debs. Socialist party leader, and Ross
Pastor Stokes, widely renowned radi
calist. both of whom were tried for vio
lations of the espionage act.
Placid Routine Disturbed.
Into the placid routine of general af
faire, following the holding- of the an
nual meeting, the petition plunged with
bang.N Reminiscent of the fight
against a library employe who had re
fused to support the liberty loan, and
of the ousting of pro-Hun books from
the library shelves, it added fire to the
tinder of former tilts.
W. F. Woodward, who led other
fights of protest, sprang to his feet
when the Chapman request was ten
dered. Dr. Chapman was not present
In person, and the demand for the audi
torium was made through R. L. Sabln,
director, who had no interest in it save
that of presentation.
That Dr. Chapman s utterances .
throughout the war period and his ten
dencies toward extreme ' radicalism
clearly Indicate "that he is a menace to
the community," was the instant objec
tion of Director Woodward, who de
clared "that such utterances as his
only tend toward disaffection and sens
to widen the breach between capital
and labor."
Mr. Ayer Favors Meeting.
Director Woodward asserted that Dr.
Chapman's doctrine Is "one of destruc
tion and not of construction." that the
spirit of employers at present Is one
of helpful interest toward employes
and that "every act that tends to bring
about suspicion, and hatred is a bad
act."
W. B. Ayer, president of the board.
Interrupted to exclaim heatedly that
Director Woodward's attitude toward
Dr. Chapman and the proposed meet
ing was such as would create the very
condition that he deplored and that the
holding of such meetings seemed to be
the only safeguard.
- Other directors Joined in the Issue,
which resolved Itself Into the decision
that, inasmuch as Debs and Mrs. Stokes
have been convicted and the Nation is
still at war, the Library auditorium
could not properly be used for the pur
poses of such discussion.
Board Divided la Views.
Director Sabln and Director W. M.
Ladd agreed with Director Woodward
that the Auditorium privilege should
not be extended to Dr. Chapman, while
Directors Robert H. Strong and Jonah
B. Wise Joined w.ith President Ayer,
at first, iri contending: that it should be.
Rabbi Wise, in voicing his views, as
serted that such meetings were advis
able and proper and added that, in his
opinion, the soldiers and sailors who
recently broke up the radicalist meet
ing in New York were downright
transgressors.
Against 'the tide of opposition Di
rector Woodward remained firm, reit
erating that such a course "would ruin
our library," and that "it would be a
monstrous doctrine if such a man as
Chapman should be permitted to use it
for his purposes."
Eventually the agreement against
permitting use of the Auditorium for
the protest meeting was reached. Di
rector Sabin was instructed to Inform
Dr. Chapman that the board considered
such a meeting untimely, and to ask
for the withdrawal of his request.
It was understood that the nature
of the meeting, following close upon
a similar conclave In behalf of Dr.
A Clothes Lesson
From the War
The war, taught us to economize.
Waste and extravagance were tabooed.
In clothes, economy meant better qual
ity. Good clothes last longer, look
better and, in the long run, are most
economical.
Are we going to forget this lesson?
Economy in peace-time is as worth
while as in "war-time.
Let's keep on practicing economy.
Let's continue to demand the best.

Denial that the East Side Bank lost
anything like $67,000 was made yester

of the bank, who listed the entire loss,
including the bank's and that of the
patrons who had left liberty bonds
ih.r. for aafekeeDlner. at $36,000.
"The East Side Bank lost. $11,000 of
Its own money and $5000 in bonds," he
said. "The liberty bonds lost by per
sons who had left them with the bank
amounted to approximately $20,000, al
though there Is no way of checking this
Item inasmuch as we did not solicit
this business and did not give receipts
when bonds of this nature were left

"We turned over $628,000 of our de

when the amalgamation was effected
and all depositors of the former East

Why Brunswick Tone
Reproduction Is Best
The Brunswick "TTltona" All-Record Reproducer
and the new All-Wood Tone Amplifier two
lmprovemente In phonographs pronounced by
many the greatest In years are responsible for
the wonderful tone of the Brunswick.
Both of these improved features can be had In
the Brunswick only. And both are integral
parts of the Instrument not attachments in
any sense.
The Brunswick "TJltona" Reproducer plays all
records at their best. Just a turn of the hand
adapts it to any make of record, assuring the
proper position on the record, the precise
weight, and the required point sapphire ball,,
diamond steel, etc.
The "Ultona" is the only reproducer that fulfills
these requirements, which are necessary to
properly play all makes of records on any
one machine.
