THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1921 lf mmm t o BAD WHEN Alienation of Affgction From Parents Charged. BUDGET IS DISCUSSED Tvro Tax Commissioners Oppose Supervised Play While Third v Member Docs Not Agree. Supervised play as conducted in the municipal playgrounds Is transferring the responsibility of rearing children from the parents to the state and alienating the affections of the chil dren from the parents, according to P. W. Mulkey and Louis Goldsmith, members of the tax supervision and conservation commission. R. I Sabln. the third member of the commission, was not willing to agree with his colleagues, nor did City Commissioner Pier and C. P. Keyser, superintendent of parks, for that matter. Members of the tax commission had hardly begun the consideration of th Dark deDartmpnt hurifiref when the discussion drifted to the subject of parental control of children. Chairman Mulkey opened the dis cussion by asking Superintendent Keyser If he- had ever obtained the aid of paren t-uachers or otfier wom en's organization for -the purpose of obtaining volunteer workers t euper. vise the playgrounds. Mr. Keyser said that he had ob tained eome co-operation in operat ing classes in the community houses, but that he did not believe that vol unteer helpers would be effective. Training: Declared Weeded. "I do not place any reliance on any plan other than that of paid super visors for playground work," said Mr. Keyser. "They must be trained for the work, must have special faculties to handle the children and it is a heavy responsibility." "Is it wise to lift the responsibility of rearing children from the parents and transfer it to the state of which the city is a political subdivision?" asked Chairman Mtllkey. Superintendent Keyser declared he did not care to answer that question directly, but insisted that playgrounds were factors in building character and served td decrease crime as well as make for a contented city. , Chairman Mulkey replied that there had been no supervised play In his boyhood days and that although at times his eyes were "black" .and he received many hard knocks, he had managed to get through his youthful years without municipal supervision, Affection Held Alienated. The city's plan of assuming the re sponsibility of raising children, ac cording to the views of Tax Commis sioner Uoldsmith, was tending to alienate the affections of the children from the parents. Chairman Mulkey made it plain that he was not opposed to play grounds, but said he opposed divided authority In bringing up children. "If the parents are incompetent or are riot willing to raise their children, and if it is necessary for the state to step in and assume this responsi bility when the home and all that it means together with Christian train ing form the bulwark of our civiliza tion, I say then God help this coun try," said Chairman Mulkey. , Discussion Brought to End. The discussion, which may indicate some radical changes in the conduct of the playground section of the park bureau, ended after Tax Commis sioner Sabln and City Commissioner Pier had both lauded the playground activities under supervision as a nec essary adjunct of city government. Chairman Mulkey requested Super intendent Keyser to furnish units costs, Including playgrounds and parks, explaining that if the com mission should find it wise to cur tail activities or reduce salaries, it would be necessary to have such data before them. The question .of co-ordination of playground activities carried on by the city and by the school board also was discussed at some length. Su perintendent Keyser said that such efforts had not proved practical in the past, although he maintained that the coordination was highly de sirable. "At the present the school board is asking the use of re two blocks of playground owned by the city op posite the Albina-Homestead school. The school playground is so small that there Is room enough for the boys only to 'shoot craps' on, and that ia what they do," he said. Golf Link Attendance Grows. Although attendance at the East moreland golf links has increased by leaps and bounds In the last year, it Is not yet on a self-sustaining basis. This Ih because the green fees have been turned over to the board of trus tees to liquidate the debt on the clubhouse, which is the property' of the board of trustees and not the city, it developed. Chairman Mulkey asked how many golf courses would be needed to serve those who desired to play on munici- I pal courses. Superintendent Keyser declared that three wetrid be re quired. "Where will the city draw the line?" asked Chairman Mulkey. "Why can not the city build a large movie pal ace and operate It as a recreational feature? It might be made self-sustaining-. Why wouldn't It be a good plan for the city to construct and operate some hotels? Private Individ uals make a profit on them. I am wondering where it is all going to end." An item of 112.500 for the extension and operation of the municipal auto camp was questioned by the commis sioners, who were Informed that an Increase in the registration and rental fees Is being considered at this time. Five thousand cars had registered at the camp up to August 31, it was ex plained, which netted a revenue ot 13500. The estimated revenue for next year without any increase in tees was given as $5000.

Salem Man's Part in Land Locations Discussed. ATTORNEY TELLS .OF DEAL Lawyer Admits He Was Bilked to Extent of 9300 In Scheme to Locate Timber Land. Evidence of a.-damaging character was introduced yestetday by United States District Attorney Humphreys In the trial of John W. Todd, former Salem school superintendent, charged with using the mails to defraud. W. C. Winslow, Salem attorney, oc cupied the stand for two hours during the day and told how Toad and Carlos L. Byron, now at large with an in dictment agalnet him, had taken thousands of dollars from Salem peo ple for timber location contracts that later were found value. ess. Winslow, recognized a a clever at torney, admitted under cross-examination of Charles W. Robinson, that the scheme of Byron and Todd to lo cate people on Hyde-Benson timber lands had appealed to him and that he had parted with 500. "I was a fool and I admit it," de clared Winslow, "but 1 would not have put a penny into the deal had it not been for John W. Todd, whom I knew and trusted." Todd had represented Byron as be lr.g a thoroughly reliable man, who was financially sound and in posses sion of "inside Information" from the government which enabled blm to locate valuable tracts at little cost, according to Winslow. H. V. Vandervoort declared on the witness stand that when a govern ment agent arrived in Salem to Inves tigate the dealings of Todd and Byron, Todd told his friends, to give no in formation to the official. Frank DeVVitt testified that he ob tained a contract after a payment of $500 to Byron and had questioned Its character. Todd told him, he said, that In reality the contract did not amount to much as the dealings were simply "man to man" propositions. The witnesses who have appeared for the state for the most part have simply repeated the same story of having fallen for the oily language of Byron and the confidence of Todd, expending $500 for which they re ceived no return. i Among those who appeared on the stand yesterday were G. H. Marsh. F. S. Barton, E. A. Miller, Charles Mc Carter, E. C. Miller, C. W. DeGraff and C. N. Chambels. eciretairy Hmglhes . why our government scored such a tremendous success on the first day of the Disarma ment Conference. He says: "It was simply because our government was able to present to the Conference A GREAT FACT." So it is here during the i Comparatively Few Days of the Gray Assignment and Sale We are able to present to all the old and new customers of the Gray store A GREAT FACT, namely, Gray Had to Assign for the Benefit of His Creditors.

It appears very likely hat La Grande may be without a city com mission and city manager in tne near future. As a result of remarks made In a special meeting of the city com mission to the effect that a water bond issue of $205,000 was recently defeated because of lack of faith in the city commission, Commissioner Stoddard announced that he wiil re sign if the other two commissioners. W. D. Grandy, president of the body, and J. D. McKennon, will Join him. Mr. Grandy's attitude Is known to be one In sympathy with Mr. Stod dard's. Mr. McKennon has main tained silence so far. City Manager Garrett has also announced that he will resign if the commissioners re tire. At the time nf the election mu-h propaganda was circulated for the purpose of undermining the voters' faith in the men they had elected to govern city affairs and this is held so largely responsible for the failure of the bond issue to pass that rumors have been persisting for soveral months that the officials will resign, but not until the special meeting this week did any of the commission an nounce his attitude.
