BUCMN PM IS ASKED
EAST SIDE BUSINESS MEN'S
CLUB ADVISES CHANGES.
Lengthy Communication to Council
Objects to Proposal to Pur
chase One Tract Offered.
Members of the East Side Business
Men's club are conducting an active
campaign to impress members of the
city council with the advisability of
purchasing four to six blocks In the
Buckman tract, just south of the Ben
son Polytechnic school, for ball
grounds and other athletics, and a
site of two blocks for playgrounds on
Fast Madison and Fast Salmon be
tween East Eleventh and East Twelfth
street.
In a lengthy communication ad
dressed to the city council L. M. Lep
per, secretary of the club, gives data
which he sets forth in support of the
arguments advanced for the purchase
of these two tracts.
Another tract under consideration
by city authorities, located from East
Seventeenth to East Twentieth and
from Yamhill street to Belmont street,
is opposed by the club membership,
according to the letter. This tract,
Mr. Lepper said, "is being urged
largely because the people have some
thing they wish to sell and unload
onto the city at a good round price."
"We are urging the purchases of
the Buckman tract and the two
blocks in the Hawthorne tract," wrote
Mr. Lepper, "for the good of the dis
trict and the children, present and
future. We are after accessible and
ideal sites, regardless of locations."
The council has set next Tuesday
afternoon as a time for hearing of
arguments in favor of various pro
posals offered for playground sites in
central east side.

TRIBUTE PM TO HOME
JUDGE STAPLETOX ADDRESSES
PORTLAND REALTY BOARD.
Speaker Says Civilization Is Based
on Home Which. Develops
Right Citizenship.
A tribute to the home, as the' basis
of the world's civilization and the
place from whence has sprung the
uplifting and refining influences of
mankind, was delivered before the
Portland realty board by Judge
Stapleton at the regular weekly
luncheon and meeting of the board
at the Benson hotel yesterday noon.
"There is something behind our
civilization, something upon which it
rests, something that must sustain it,
something without which it could not
be and would not continue," declared
the judge, "and that something is the
home."
He briefly told of the home first
as a place of abode to care for the
physical wellbeing and expressed
the opinion that In the present cold
weather many Portlanders, marooned
from their homes by the storm, had
come to appreciate as never before
the comforts of their own firesides.
"Civilization, like any other struc
ture, like any other institution, reli
gious or political, must have a proper
support," he continued, "a proper
foundation upon which to rest, or it
will topple and fall. We frequently
hear it stated that the four recognized
pillars of our civilization are the
church, the school, the home and the
state. It la true that these are the
four pillars as we ordinarily refer
to them, but to my mind they are all
contemplated in the one word which
describes that one institution from
which all the others sprung, the
home.
"Experience has taught us that it
is not the wealth of gold nor the
pride of position that makes the
happy, contented and useful home,
but that we more frequently find in
the home of the humble and reliable
citizen those things that go to make
up the pillars of civilization. All life
is indebted to the home. The begin
ning of every honorable institution
was in the home. Every valued activ
ity may trace its source to the home.
Here the seed of every bit-and kind
of human organization has first
sprung into strong life."
In closing the speaker rererred to
the home as the great first training
place for citizenship.
"The father and mother who are
not training. the child so as to make
of him a good citizen, are uninten
tionally doing the directly opposite
thing to the detriment of our social
and political life," he said. "As the
body politic builds beacon lights to
guide aright the boats and navigate
our great waters, so should the so
cial body prepare alike assistance
for the ship-wrecked homes."
The programme of the day was
rounded out by the regular weekly
report of W. B. Shively of the legal
committee and a resolution urging
the county commissioners to retain
on its budget an item of $30,000 for
the 1920 Rose festival was adopted.
PLEA MADE TO AUTOISTS
Blocking of Street Car Traffic Is
Called to 3Iayor's Attention.
Mayor Baker last night issued an
emphatic appeal to all autoists and
drivers of delivery trucks and other
conveyances to co-operate in every
way possible with the street railway
company in keeping the traffic
moving at all points.
"I am not making this appeal on
behalf of the street-car company, but
in the interests of the general public."
emphasized the mayor. "I have re
ceived a great number of complaints
during the day of scores of automo
bilists becoming stalled in front of
street cars and thus tying up traffic
for a considerable length of time. If
these drivers would bear in mind

tllat it is not the company but the
public the people who are anxious to
get to and from their homes that
this sort of confusion harms, I be
lieve they would show more con
sideration. "I want especially to appeal to mer
chants and business men to instruct
their drivers to be careful at all
times to assist in every way possible
in order that street-car traffic may
be kept as near normal as possible,
for it is only by such co-operation
that the people of this city will be
enabled to go about their regular
duties."
