Christ's divinity became the fore
most topic among Portland orthodox
clergy yesterday when dissension
broke out among the members of the
ministerial association following the
reading of a paper. "Christ and Hu
man Values." by Dr. W. H. Ineson,
pastor of the Ssunnyside Methodist
church.
The meeting was the last of this
year's sessions, and preceding the
paper of the day. Dr. H. H. Griffis,
pastor of the First Christian church,
read his report as the retiring presi
dent. Officers elected were Dr. Byron
J. Clark, First United Brethren church,
president; Dr. W. B. Hinson, East
Side Baptist church, vice-president,
and Ralph McAfee, executive secre
tary of the Portland Church Federa
tion, secretary-treasurer.
Paper la Attacked.
Dr. Tneson did not directly attack
the divinity of Christ in his paper, but
several ministers interpreted it in that
liffht. At the close of its reading.
Dr. Griffis, as president, remarked:
'This has been a very stimulating
paper," and prepared to adjourn the
meeting. Rev. H. L. Cox of the
Friends church jumped to his feet and
took issue.
"If this represents the thought of
Portland ministers, pity be upon us,"
he said, launching what resulted in a
peneral controversy. Several speak
ers supported him and several spoke
In ardent defense of the paper read.
The paper as a whole constituted a
plea for rational faith. "Christ mani
fested the fatherhood of God only to
the extent that perfect sonship could
reveal God's deity," said Dr. Ineson,
The known can never be fully re
vealed by the unknown. The more
perfect instrument results in the more
perfect understanding. For instance
the more perfect globe used with j
electricity the more perfect light
which will be thrown into a dark j
street.
Mankind Held Peroonlfled.
"Christ was the complete manifes
tation of humanity. He personifies
mankind in its entirety. Nothing hap
pened at his cradle w'hich does not
occur at the cradle of every child.
The same is true of his grave. He
rose from the dead because we also
rise from the dead. As the New
Testament quotation goes: "He brought
life and immortality to light.'
"Jesus Christ was the perfect son
of God and as such became the per
fect son of man. Mankind is heir to
what Christ brought this world.
Every man is the son of God, but
Christ was perfect in his sonship
while we are imperfect.
"Once men thought that the greater
wisdom was displayed by obscuring a
matter. Now elucidation is a mark of
superior understanding. I am con
fident the age justly demands simpli
fication of our creed in the interests
of a more practical realization of
h u man life in its relation to God. Truth
is always in danger of being lost in
the artificial .historical mysteries that
men weave around it so that any at
tempt to rescue truth from the
whirling light of creedal arrange
ments is commendable, for such an
attempt is in the interests of a more
reasonable faith in God and man.
Rranoii at Bottom of Faith.
"The foundation of faith is reason,
but much that has been called faith
is seen today to have been faith
liberalized with a mixture of credu
lity." Dr. Griffis characterized Dr. Ineson's
paper as a new expression of an old
truth. He asked Dr. Ineson to read
It at the Ministerial association, he
Eaid, because he had been interested
in a synopsis of the same paper read
at a recent luncheon. Dr. William T.
McElveen. pastor of the First Con
gregational church, was warm in its
defense although he said he did not
agree with it in every point. Dr.
Kobert Murray Pratt of the Pilgrim
Congregational church was emphatic
in his approval of the paper.

cording to the plans outlined by
representatives of the Pacific Coast
Coal company before a meeting of
property owners and manufacturers
at the Portland Chamber of Com
merce yesterday morning under the
auspices of the Portland Building
Owners' and Managers' association.
The meeting was prompted by the
belief of the users of fuel oil that
this fuel may'shortly become unavail
able or at least-very difficult to se
cure and that the price may be in
creased considerably. Building owners
who were present 'called attention to
recent statements by engineers and
students of the subject that fuel oil
may shortly be almost impossible to
obtain, due largely to the fact that
new processes being established for
breaking up the crude oil to give the
largest amount of valuable by-products
is leaving littlevresidue available.
L. P'erris, new resident manager of
the Pacific Coast Coal company, an
nounced that his company is ready
to go ahead with the erection of a
powdered coal plant, if sufficient
business can be assured. A second I
meeting has been called for i'riday
morning at the green room of the
Portland Chamber of Commerce, when
the matter will be considered further.
Two other representatives of -the
coal company, V. Mattison, fuel engi
neer, and N. Calkins, powdered coal
expert, were present. Both are in
Portland from. Seattle headquarters
to investigate the local situation with
the view of erecting a plant here.
Powdered coal, it was explained, is
prepared by taking the mine-run
coal, drying it thoroughly and grind-
: it up until it is about as fine as
talcum powder. It is then handled
n special tank containers, and is fed
nto the furnaces much as is fuel oil.
After some alterations, furnaces built
to handle fuel oil may use the coal
substitute. The company is already
operating a plant in Seattle, Mr.
Ferris said.
Should the company be assured suf
ficient business here to warrant the
operation of a plant, ' erection will
start at once, and the plant should
be in operation within 120 days, ac
cording to Mr. Ferris. The structure
would cost in the neighborhood of
$200,000 and would be erected upon
tract of land belonging to the com
pany adjoining its docks at Front
and Raleigh streets.

overshadowing chances in the most
healthy after-war- industries may be
iouna in a certain class of second
hand stores, if an ex-convict on the
witness stand in the circuit court
yesterday told the truth concerning
the disposition of stolen property to
an alleged north end "fence."
Twelve suits of tailor-made clothes,
four overcoats and several pair of
shoes brought $40 to the thieves, and
jewelry valued at $800 was sold for
$25 to Alex Goldstein, proprietor of
a second-hand store at 28 North
Third street, according to the tes
timony of Harry Gardner, alias Gor
don, in the trial of Goldstein, charged
with receiving stolen property, be
fore Circuit Judge Belt yesterday.
Gardner cheerfuly confessed- to
three robberies in company with
Eugene Kelly and to disposing of
the loot without difficulty to Gold
stein. His partner, Kelly, will be
called to the witness stand today.
Both of the men are under indictment
for burglary, but have not yet been
tried.
AlleKed Kencen on Trial.
The trial is on the first of five
indictments involving Alex Goldstein,
his brother. Harry Goldstein; a
brother-in-law, Nathan Karl, and a
father-in-law, Wiliam Jacobsen. all of
whom own second-hand stores and
are accused by the police of encour
aging thievery by affording easy dis
position of stolen goods. Harry Gold
stein's store is at 225 Burnside street,
Karl's at 27 North Third street and
Jacobsen s at 3.7 North Second street.
The two Goldsteins are the only
ones accu.ed in the present trial, and
thus far there has been no evidence
to connect Harry Goldstein with the
case.
Shortly before planning the rob
bery of the home of A. C. Peel. 101
East Sixteenth street, Gardner said
he asked Alex Goldstein if he could
dispose of stolen property in his shop.
"He said he'd 'fence' for us, and
any time we got in trouble he'd help
us out," declared the witness. He
went on to say that the haul of 1
suits, four overcoats and several pairs
of shoes from the Peel residence was
not very satisfactory to Goldstein.
Hlllxboro Store Is Robbed.
"He said: "You'd better bring me
in some new shoes and new suits.
We can handle them better.' " testi
fied Gardner. So the next "job" was
accomplished at the general mer
chandise store of J. H. Garrett of
Hillsboro, where some clothing and
22 pairs of shoes were stolen, said
the witness.
Garrett had testified concerning
the theft and had identified shoes
found in the Goldstein store as stolen
property. Peel also had identified his
suits of clothes and overcoats, which
detectives testified were recovered
from the second-hand store of Gold
stein. t
In the evidence produced by the
prosecution conducted by Earl F.
Bernard, deputy district attorney,
was some jewelry which had been
stolen from the store of Harley Mor
ton, 102 Grand avenue, by Gardner
and Kelly. Morton testified concern
ing the robbery, which occurred last
March and identified the jewelry,
which police officers had found in
the second-hand store, as stolen. He
said that Jewelry worth about $800
had been stolen and $500 worth re
covered by the police. Gardner ad
mitted the theft and said he and
Kelly received $25lfrom Goldstein for
the jewelry.
