across the street from the scene of
the combat.

Prospect for Agreement Between
Poland and Soviet Russia Also
Far From Encouraging.
WARSAW, Sept. 21. The peace ne
gotiations between Lithuania and So
land have been broken off and the
Polish delegation has left Kalwarya
and Is returning to Warsaw.
RIGA, Sept. 20. (By the Associated
Press.) The prospects did not appear
bright today for a speedy peace be
tween Poland and soviet Russia re
sulting from the conference to be
opened tomorrow. The indicated re
fusal of soviet Russia to disarm, as
the Poles are expected to demand
seems likely to be the chief stum
bling-block.
The bolshevik delegation, it Is fore
cast, will Insist that Poland must dis
arm with the exception of a small
defensive force. The bolshevlki, how
ever, Insist that they are at war with
tieneral Wrangel, France and the
United States, which makes it imper
ative, they declare, that they main
tain a war footing.
The presence of the American tor
pedo boat destroyer Broome In the
Riga harbor caused the soviet dele
gates to make soma inquiries from
toe juetvian government.
The soviet representatives aug
gested thaU the peace treaty with
Lctvia forbade the use of territorial
waters by ships of countries fight
ing soviet Russia, but as no war ac
tually has been declared between the
United States and soviet Russia the
Letvian officials explained that the
American ships in the Baltic had
been offered the hospitality of Let
vlan ports, as also bad British war
ships.

Programme, as Whole, One of Best
That Has Ever Been Pre
sented Here.
The Orpheum's all-comedy and nov
elty show will close its Portland en
gagement with the matinee today. So
far this show has proved to be one of
the snappiest and best drawing cards
of the early season as packed houses
have been the rule since the opqpung
show Sunday.
"Bits and Pieces." a satire on six
theatrical successes of New York, is
the headline attraction. The stars of
this act are Jack Patton and Loretta
Marks, both favorably known in thea-
terdom for successes they have won in
vaudeville and musical comedy. They
are assisted by a company of pretty
girls and the entire act is staged wltn
gusto. "Breakfast in Bed," "Scandal,"
"Tea for Three," "My Lady friends."
"Chu Chin Chow" and "Maytime" are
among the pieces travestied.
Other acts of the show are "A Mod
ern Simon Legree," a business life
sketch offered by Jack MacBryde and
Marion A. Day, who is recalled as the
heroine in "Cranberries," an Orpheum
sketch that made a big hit here; Dan
Stanley and Al Birnes, dancers, who
"stop the show" regularly with their
burlesque on Ruth St. Denis; Keal
Abel, a negro-dialect comedian, who
wins many laughs; Bob Carleton, au
hor of the song "J a-Da," and Julia
Ballew in an entertaining song and
dance skit; the Briants with their nov
elty "The Dream of the Moving Man,"
which is so popular it holds everyone
at the close of the show, and Lawton,
a merry juggler.

Tragedy, bringing a purifying grief
that causes Israel to consider the
ideals which have been its burden
and its honor down through the ages
is the underlying thought of the Day
of Atonement, according to Dr. Jonah
B. Wise, rabbi of Temple Beth Israel,
which last night held, holiday serv
ices. The Yom Kippur services will
be continued today and tonight in
Beth Israel temple and other syna
gogues of the city.
Dr. Wise pleaded for a better un
derstanding of Judaism by the Jew.
He declared the Jewish religion to
be one that interprets and under
stands the Jewish people and one
that should be studied from sub
jective rather than objective phases.
Tragedy of Israel Cited.
"The tragedy of Israel." said Dr.
Wise, "is comparable to the parable
told in Isaiah about the vineyard
owner who planted vines of merit '
and reaped wild fruit which gave
forth bitter wine. Israel assembles
year after year looking for justice
and finding oppression, looking for
righteousness and finding hate.
"Tonight Israel faces the tragedy
which Macbeth faced when, after
slaying his king and master, he
heard a prayer said over the dead
body and found that he could not say
'amen'; that the word stuck in his
throat.
"How many of us here tonight can
look back on the Ideals of our fathers
and say, 'amen'? I see before me
men and women who have grown in
honor and in riches, but I also see
before me many who cannot speak
the simple thesis of our religion.
Each one absolves himself but he
cannot sink on his knees in prayer
without realizing the tragedy of
Judea and its ideals for waich our
fathers gave their lives. .
Judaism Is Disenssed.
- "Judaism is an appreciation and un
derstanding of the Jew. Your religion
understands you and doesn't demand
that you understand it. It cannot
be solved as can a mathematical prob
lem. Strangely enough, it stands dumb
before ts critics, who try to analyze
its theories, because the critics are
deaf. It contains the passion, the
ideals, the spirit of the Jew. The only
surcease which we may know is to
stand erect, wipe the blood from our
brow and recognize this tragedy,
which is our Inheritance. Help may
come only through knowledge of
Judaism and the sacred land.
"I would that we could again intone
our prayers in Hebrew as a beacon
light to those In darkness. Through
Judaism alone can,-we transmute the
base metal of today into gold, the
jewel which God has chosen, the pe
culiar treasure which God has made
Israel. ; :' ;
"Our grief today ' is not physical.
It comes not from sorrow or bereave
ment or loss. It is heart-rending and
soul-purifying, and overwhelming re
gret for the nobler contact that made
us before God. and man a chosen and
a holy people.
"Go .in repentance and self-contempt,
each man for himself, resolv
ing he shall know when spoken to -n
the language of Israel for which our
people have been willing to die for
centuries, praying for recognition of
the faitn or tiod and love of man.
When we learn that our religion in
terprets and knows us, we will be
able to mutter in our throats 'amen.'"
but warranted by the facts. For the1
first time in our lives the demo
cratic administration taught us what
repression and suppression were. This
administration not only curtailed the
constitutional privileges of citizens
at home, but endeavored to drive us
into perilous paths abroad. Free
speech has been threatened, not in t
the interest of patriotism, but for ex
isting power. A free press has been
endangered.
"A rigid censorship diluted the
news, and facts, to 'which all were
entitled were, forbidden publication,
while government propaganda colored
and often distorted the information
permitted to come to the people.
These assault insensibly bred in
tolerance, the ancient foe of freedom.
The necessary restrictions of wartime
have been inexcusably prolonged in
peace and . our government has
strayed far from those fundamental
principles upon which, for more than
a century and a quarter, the republic
has so securely rested."
Senator Johnson quoted Senator
Harding as having said on August
28, "the league is impotent as a pre
centive of wars," and that the
"original league mistakenly con
ceived and unreasonably insisted upon
has undoubtedly passed beyond the
possibility of restoration."
On Saturday last, he said, "Senator
Harding again stated the issue: 'The
constitution or the covenant that is
the paramount issue. The two are
irreconcilable. We cannot be gov
erned from both Geneva and Wash
ington. We cannot follow our present
chief magistrate -without forsaking
the father of our country
Senator Johnson concluded by say
ing the issue "arouses not only our
greatest enthusiasm, but our loftiest
patriotism," and declaring the "re
publican party marches to victory, in
this campaign, under the banner of
Americanism."

CLUB EVADES POLITICS
Live Wires at Oregon City Decide
Xot to Indorse Ticket.
OREGON CITY. Or., Sept. 21.
(Special.) Live wires of the com
mercial club declined today to give
their endorsement to a ticket for
entry in the city election of Novem
ber 2, on the ground that the club
should stay out of politics and that
the submission of a ticket should go
hand in hand with a new charter pro
viding for a commission form of gov
ernment, with a business manager for
the city.
Mr. Eby, now a member of the
council and whose petition for mayor
is in circulation, concurred in a
recommendation of Schuebel and Dr.
L. A. Morris that the city needs a
new system of government, in order
to centralize responsibility and to in
sure better business methods.
The Henderson report was finally
laid on the table until next Tuesday
and a joint committee was appointed
to take up the matter of drafting a
new city charter in line with the
ideas expressed.

Overwhelming Republican Vic---

SACRAMENTO, Cal., Sept. 21. Sen
ator Hiram W. Johnson of California
in his first speech in behalf of the
republican national ticket indorsed
the attitude of Senator -Warren G.
Harding, nominee for the presidency,
on the league of nations here today.
-"Mr. Harding, happily for himself
and for America, has scrapped the
league," Senator Johnson said. Sena
tor Johnson has been one of the most
bitter and unbending foes of the
league in the United States senate.
The speech, first of several Sena
tor Johnson is scheduled to. make in
California for the national campaign,
was made to the republican state
convention at its opening session. It
began with congratulations "upon the
outlook for republican success." and
an attack upon the present democratic
administration.
, "So wide is the dissatisfaction with
the present administration," he- said,
"so great the hostility to many of the
acts of the president and so acute
the justifiable fear of the meta
morphosis of our foreign policy, that
apparently nothing can prevent over
whelming republican success in the
November election.
