LEAGUE TO STIR UP
Strict Enforcement of Law
. Declared Object.
OFFICIALS TO GET HELP
Prohibitionists Say Vigilance Is
X.ecessary to Keep Liquor
f From Invading State.
Tn .the belief that the enforcement
of law may best be brought about by
those -who have been duly constituted
as public authorities, the Anti-Saloon
league of Oregon will bend its ef
forts during the coming year to co
operating with officials throughout
the state and arousing sentiment
among; the people calculated to
strengthen the demand for strict com
pliance with the prohibition Btatutes,
as well as others.
Such was the decision of the di
recting heads of the Anti-Saloon
league of Oregon, which recently con
ducted in Portland and Salem law en
forcement conferences for the purpose
of building up public sentiment to
back officers in enforcing the stat
utes. In addition to its co-operation
with the authorities the organization
will carry on a determined effort to
make it more popular to enforce laws
than not to, according to W. J, Her
wig. Its superintendent.
Prohibition Benefits Studied.
"The league will have a complete
survey of the benefits of prohibition
in Oregon," said Superintendent Her
wig, "compiling the Information from
every possible source, and will pub
lish it for general distribution andi
as a -basis for assisting other coun
tries In their fight for dry laws. The
league will also undertake to educate
foreign-born people living in Oregon
to the fairness of prohibition. Many
of them, having been born and reared
in other countries, cannot see the rea
son for this law, but If properly in
structed they will come to understand
and respect it, we believe."
Literature printed in the language
of the foreign element sought to be
reached will .be one means of reach
ing these people, said Mr. Herwlg.
Missionaries amd social reform work
ers will also be enlisted in the work,
he said.
Fight Not Finished.
"The greatest danger which today
threatens the- prohibition movement
in America," declares Mr. Herwlg, "is
that, in this hour of history, its faith
ful friends may conclude that the
fight is at an end in this country. It
is well for us to remember that, in a
free government, even a provision of
the constitution cannot of itself solve
the liquor problem or any other great
moral or social issue.
"It will be necessary that each
state maintain a solid front, and con
tinue the agitation for prohibition
and its enforcement. To that end, we
are organizing immediately a cam
paign of education on prohibition in
order to create a more wholesome
respect for all our anti-liquor legisla
tion, not only among Portland's for-eten-born
population, but also in the
lunrber and mining cam-pa of the
state."
- Resolutions Are Adopted.
At a meeting of the board of direc
tors erf the stnti-saloon league, resolu
tions expressing confidence in the of
ficers throughout the state and pledg
ing them every assistance possible,
were adopted. '
Officers of the anti-saloon league
for the ensuing year have been
chosen, as follows: 13. A. Baker, presi
dent; J. J. ltoss, vice-president; Rev.
Ralph C. McAfee, secretary; E. Quack
enbush, treasurer; E. A. Baker, chair
man; Rev. Mr. McAfee, secretary; J.
T. Wilson, A. Li. Veazie, J. J. Ross, E.

Rev. B. J. Clark, W. J. Herwlg, head
quarters committee, and E. A. Baker,
Bishop W. H. Washinger and Mr. Her
wlg, national board of trustees.

CHARLES RAY will be seen the
-coming week at the Peoples the
atec in his latest production, "An
Old Fashioned Boy," which starts Its
run today. The picture is a typical
Ray offering, filled with clean comedy
and Just a little pathos. Mr. Ray is
seen as a bashful young man who
proposes to a somewhat snobbish girl
and when she accepts him, takes her
to see a bungalow which he has pur
chased for their home. The girl rather
resents her sweetheart's precipitancy
in the matter and an estrangement
ensues. But the old-fashioned boy,
after a series of comical mishaps,
finally adjusts matters and he and bis
fiancee as well as all concerned find
happiness.
Playing opposite the star Is Ethel
Shannon, a film debutante. The sup
port generally is of the best, the work
of Alfred Allen, Wade Boteler, Grace
Morse, Gloria Joy and the juveniles,
Frankid Lee, Virginia Brown and Hal
Cooley being clever. The picture was
directed by Jerome Storm, while the
story was written by Agnes Christine
Johnston. Chester Lyon was re
sponsible for the beautiful photog
raphy that distinguishes the production.
The picture is said to be the first
one in which the "iris- is not usea.
An iris is the technical name for a
fade-out" which generally is seen at
the conclusion of each episode, and
which, to the screen. Is the same as
the lowering of the curtain on the
stage.
Other features of the new Peoples
bill are a comedy, "In and Out," a
Mutt and Jeff animated cartoon called
"Flapjacks," and a Fathe news re

SALEM, Or., Nov. 19. (Special.)
Whether the directors of school
district No. 69 in Coos county have
grounds for suit for damages against
H. J. Redding of Grants Pass, because
ho married Miss Mary Rollins and
caused her to abandon her school in
violation of her contract with the dis
trict, was the somewhat perplexing
question today referred to J. A.
Churchill, state superintendent of
schools, by J. E. Z. Fowle, clerk of
tuo school district in which Mrs. Red
ding formerly was employed.
According to a letter received by
Mr. Churchill from the school clerk.
Miss Mary Rollins signed a contract
with the directors of the district to
teach the primary grades for a period
of nine months, starting September 6,
1920. After teaching six weeks she
m.irrled and left the school, against
the wishes of the directors, who de
clined to accept her resignation on the
ground that she had been given the
position - in preference to several
other applicants and should not have
cajoled them into believing that she
was acting in good faith when she ac
cepted the position and signed the
contract.
"As a result of abandoning the
school the institution has been closed
for six weeks," continued Mr. Fowle
n his letter. "The directors at their
last meeting unanimously adopted a
resolution requesting that If in your
Judgment you thiijk the circumstances
warrant It, the certificate of Mary
Rollins, now Mrs. U. J. Redding of
Grants Pass, be revoked for a period
ol one year.
"I would also like to Know if you
consider there are any grounds for
bringing a suit for damages against
her husband for taking her away from
tho school, - thereby depriving 24 or
mere children of the privilege of pub
lic Instruction which is considered the
r.ridc and foundation of our govern
ment."
