CRUSADER AHACKS
SMIi DOYLE
Dr. Anderson Praises Press
for Exposing "Prattle."
SPIRITUALISM HELD FAKE
Importation of English Nobles to
Trick Americans Branded In-
salt to Intelligence.
Tribute was paid to the American
press last night by Dr. George Wood
Anderson at the united gc&pel cru
sade tabernacle for exposing- "the
senseless prattle" of Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle and other English noblemen
who have visited America recently
to spread the teachings of spiritual
ism. The crusader spoke from the
subject "Dreams and Ghosts." his ser
mon being- a reply to the theories of
the men whom he classed as ''im
ported talent."
During the sermon rr. Anderson
expressed the wish that both the pub
lic and the press would continue their
condemnation fearlessly of 'spiritu
alistic tricks."
"There are ghosts, for I have seen
them, andi there are haunted houses,
for I have been, in them," Dr. Ander
son said. "The ghosts are not the
Epirlts of the dead that came back.
My experience with works of magic
l as given me access to all the great
houses that supply works of magic in
the eastern part of the country, and
I have found there on sale and could
purchase all the paraphernalia nec
essary to produce all the phenomena
attributed to the action of the spirits
at a regular seance and are sold as
'spiritualistic tricks.'
Dead Do Not Come Back.
"I am acquainted with all the va
rious demonstrations which Sir Oliver
Lodge describes in his books as man-
uesiations of his son's return from
the World Of SDirits anrt Iran ppurn.
dues them at any time, with the
equipment he describes.
ine dead do not come back. The
criptures plainly teach that thev can
not return and it is a burning insult
for men of the standing, socially and
intellectually, of some of our English
visitors that they should so nresume
vpoo the ignorance of our people that
they would dare to exploit such sense
less prattle as A. Conan Dovle is now
selling at so much an evening to the
American people. The most ignorant
myths of the negro folk of slavery is
se philosphy compared with thi
conglomeration of grotesque and
meaningless utterances of this man
of English aristocracy who is impos
ing upon those in grief for gain and
whom our papers are' so justly expos
ing. May our public be as wise as the
public press and as fearless in his
condemnation.
Lost Opportunities Spectral.
"But there, are ghosts, and there
are haunted houses. The ghosts are
not the spirits of mortals, but the
spirits of our sins and our lost op
portunities. Some one has said that
opportunity only comes once. Op
portunity comes once to bless if re
ceived into the lives. Neglected, that
opportunity comes back r. thousand
times to haunt the man who missed it.
"There, too, are the ghosts of our
sins. A many may bury hie sin of
the ni?ht in the most inaccessible
place and cover the grave in painstak
ing fashion, but he cannot keep it
buried. There is a resurrection
trumpet, that blows every day. Our
ears may not hear it and the multi
tudes may not notice it, but our sins
do and the sin that we believe buried
and forgotten will stalk forth again
and haunt us as long as we live.
Boys Guest at Service.
Delegations of teen-age boys were
guests at the service, representing
the various high schools of the citv.
-4he order of Ie Molay and the Hi-T
club. A section of the tabernacle was
niso reserved for the women's Bible
classes.
Tonight will be allied veterans'
night, under the auspices of the Port
land post of the American Legion.

accepted an in vitation to occupy a
reserved section of the tabernacle.

SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA WINS
BY CHARMING PROGRAMME
Madame Yolanda Hero, Pianist, Plays Brilliant Contribution to Last
Concert of Local Season. .
MO. MARTIN FILES AGAIN
s
RE-ELECTION IS SOUGHT
COUNTS" AUDITOR.
BY
BT OLIVE NEAL MONTEITH.
THE Portland Symphony orchestra
closed its season with a very
successful concert at the Heilig
theater last night. The orchestra,
under the direction of Carl Denton,
gave great pleasure , to the audi
ence by it3 rendition of the melodious
and charming "Symphony In D Ma
jor" (Svenilsen), the symphonic tone
poem "Phaeton" (Saint-Saens) and by
its brilliant support of the soloist in
the Liszt "Concerto." As conductor,
Carl Dentin leads his men with a
quiet authority that brings a fine re
sponse in the ensemble effects.
Madame Yolando Mero, pianist, who
was heard for the first time in Port
land, chose for her opening number
the intenssly interesting "Concerto in
A Major" (Liszt) in which the bril
liance of her technic, the power and
force of her interpretation and the
purity of tone which she brings from
the piano, ail combined- to make at
magnificent performance.
Orchestral Background Good.
The orchestral background was
splendidly rendered and added to
the brilliance of the effect In the
sparkling interchange of harmonies
between piano and orchestra. In tne
tremendous volume and clearness of
the heavier passages the fire and dash
of her interpretation and the feminine
tenderness of the more delicate mo
ments, Madame Mero proved herself
an artist of exceptional ability. At the
end of the concerto she presented a
rose, from a beautiful bouquet which
she received, to the conductor, Mr.
Denton, and to Mr. Brits in recogni
tion of his finely played cello salo. It
is an interesting fact that Mr. Britz
and Madame Mero are both natives
of the citv of Budapest, and he was
present at her debut In that city.
There was a singing quality and
rare sweetness of tone in her Chopin
number and in, the elusive melody by
Debussy. The "Rhapsodie" (Liszt)
was played by the pianist, herself a
Hungarian, with characteristic na
tional spirit and an unusual reading
which served to enhance the brilliance
of her performance. It is a pleasure
to watch the grace and artistry of her
fingering. In the poise of the hand,
high in the air, there is the "follow
through" of perfect rhythm and a
stroke that makes for a full, rounded,
ringing tone. Madame Mero was
Eiven a wonderful reception by the
audience and played as encores "Sixth
Rhapsodie" (Liszt), "Staccato caprice
(Bogrich), "D Flat Valse" (Chopin)
which was replaced on the programme
by the "Serenade" (Rachmaninoff)
"The Brook" (Grieg) and "March Min
iature" (Jacoby).
Symphony Is Repeated.
The Svendsen Symphony, which was
played by the orchestra last year, was
repeated in response to many re
quests. Formal in arrangement, with
themes and development along estab
lished lines, it was pleasing to the ear
and charming to the imagination.
The most popular movement was
undoubtedly the fairylike schertzando,
which had to be repeated. Melodious
and happy in its message, the sym
phony was given by the orchestra
with a fine appreciation of its musical
beauties. The men seemed thoroughly
familiar with the score and played
with a fine authority and certainty
of attack that made for a finished
production.
With - the opening notes of the
Salnt-Saens "Phaeton" there was evi
dent the hand of a master composer.
The polished style of the suave and
worldly Frenchman presented the
story of this descriptive tone poem in
a composition of rare beauty. The
orchestra is to be congratulated wpon
the technical facility and the spirited
interpretative ability with which they
played this number.
Menage I Clear.
As descriptive music, its message is
clear, easily followed and wholly
pleasing. It is compositions like this
that make regular symphony attend
ants out of beginners. For the youth
ful musical mind, whether It is young
in age or in experience, can approach
music more readily through the con
crete than through the abstract
thought.
Orchestra la Praised.
At this time, after the closing con
cert of the season, it is interesting to
consider the personal side of . the
make-up of tne orchestra, 'loo mucn
cannot be said of the loyalty to this
fine organization which seems to be
felt by every one of its members. It
is unique in the fact that it was or
ganized by the musicians themselves
in response to a desire which they
felt for symphonic music. There are
in the group many players, trained
by the world's greatest masters, who
have made a life-long study of their
respective instruments.
At a continual sacrifice of individ
ual time and convenience, and in the
face of many odds, they have stead
fastly woaked for their ideal, a suc
cessful Portland symphony orchestra.
Just one story is that of the members
of a local theater orchestra who, after
finishing their playing, rehearsed
their week's programme until 2
o'clock that night, and then appeared
for symphony rehearsal at 10 the
next morning as a prelude to an
other day's work. This is only a
'characteristic example of the devo
tion to a cause that has marked the
history of the symphony's growth.
Great Efforts Made.
To go back to a review of last
night's concert such a spirit cannot
exist without flowering in the musia
of the men who, year after year, have
maintained their organization for the
study of the world's greatest compositions.-
Urged on by their love of mu
sic and by the desire for cultural
upbuilding of their home city, no ef
fort has been too great ror them to
make. They have merited the surm
port and enthusiasm that was shown
by the splendid audience which ap
plauded last night's programing.
The Portland plan of giving the
final rehearsal free to the school
children of the city is a practical
working out of their ideals, and is
now being followed by other cities as
an educational feature. It is worth
while to attend one of these rehears
als to see the interested attention
which the young folks give to the
orchestral numbers, in fact it is worth
while if only to see the affectionate
radiance in the smile of the conductor
as he accepts the applause, of the
youthful audience.
It is only due a talented local mu
sician to mention that Miss Ada Xlice
Tuttle played with the orchestra, in
rehearsals, the Liszt "Concerto," given
last night by Madame Mero, and which
Miss Tuttle had played abroad. Her
gracious contribution of service added
to the finished result In the perform
ance of this number by the orchestra.

Salem Tost of Legion to Institute
Mandamus Proceedings, Spe
cial Meeting Decides.
gU,EM. Or., April 19. (Special.)
Salem post. American Legion, at a
special meeting here tonight, voted to
institute mandamus proceedings
against the world war veterans' state
aid commission, which is in charge or
the administration of the soldiers
bonus and loan act, to compel the
commission to authorize loans up to
75 per cent of the appraised value or
the property on which the loans are
made. The law provides that the
loans may be made up to 7o per cent.
The legion post charged that the
commission in many instances re
duced the loans far below 7o per cent
of the value of the property and has
refused ex-service men entitled to the
loan the privilege of investigating the
records. The suit, according to mem
bers of the legion post, will determine
whether thP statute requires that
loans shall be made on the basis of
75 per cent of the vahie of the prop
erty or whether "5 per cent is the
maximum amount that may be loaned.
Authorization of the suit followed
receipt of a report from a special
commission' of the post appointed
some time ago to confer with the
commission with relation to its policy
of making loans. The commission. In
reply to the ex-service men, invited
a suit to test the policies, adopted by
the body in administering the loan
feature of the stste-aid act.

war and all that leads to It with as
much horror as we now look upon a
cold-blooded murder."
"If we want this new world we
can only get jt by striving for it," she
said. "The real struggle will be within
ourselves to put out of our con
sciousness, out of our hearts and out
of our thoughts all that makes for
war, ' hate, envy, greed pride, force
and material ambition."
L-adv Astor asserted she knew the
welcome she received today had noth
ing to do with her. Ever since she
entered the mother of parliaments
she ceased to be a person and had
become a symbol, she said. The only
remarkable thing about her was her
children.
When she entered parliament, she
recalled, some of the members looked
upon her more hs a pirate t.ian a pil
grim. A pioneer may be a picturesque
figure, she added, but often is a rather
lonely one. Still, she said, tne men in
the house bore their shock with
dauntless decency and no body of men
could have been kinder and fairer.
Children Mostly American.
Speaking as a Virginian does," with
out a trace of British accent. Lady
Astor said she was "still an unrecon
structed southerner."
"And when I hear 'Dixie' something
happens," she added.
Her children she described as "mon
grels three-fourths American."
As to woman's place in the world,
she said those of her sex were just as
individual as men.
"One can't say women do this and
women do" that." she remarked, "be
cause they don't do things alike any
more than men."
The clothes nearly all -women are
wearing nowadays are unfortunate
from her point of view. Lady Astor
said.
"Nothing lets the sex down like
running about half naked," the went
on. "There is no use talking about
equality .if we only use our liberty
to show our hideousness. Last night
I wore a dress -I 'have used since 1918.
If you keep your eye on your body all
the time you can't keep it on your
soul."
Mothers Are Blamed. i
"How about the flappers and their
uniform?" she repeated. "Their
clothes are unfortunate, but that is
their mothers' fault. The first thing
a woman ought to teach her children
is obedience."
In running for re-election to her
place in parliament . next autumn,
Lady Astor said she would not say
one plank in her platform would be
exactly dry, but certainly it would
not be wet.
One of the largest groups of re
porters and photographers that ever
smarmed aboard a steamer down the
bay surrounded Lady Astor.
"Help! Help! Get my husband!
Get my husband!" she cried. Some
one fetched the viscount in a jiffy,
and they were taken to the boat
.deck for photographs. Lady Astor
took hold of the viscount's arm,
winked and said:
"Married, though happy."
Then began the interview with
the ultimate topic prohibition.
Mnrg-ot Is Held Unique.
"I don't believe what the British
papers say about prohibition in this
country." she said.
"Margot AsquiUt's view? As re
gards her views, I could tell you a
lot of things, but I won't. I am not
going to discuss Mrs. Asquitli or any
other individual. All I can say is that
she is no more a typical average
Englishwoman than she is a typical
average American woman. I might
say she is unique and I would not be
far wrong."
Lady Astor said she- bad not come
to try to bring America into better
relationship with England and Eu
rope, nor to tell anyone his duty, nor
to tell American statesmen what
to do.
"American -influence is needed to
help put things right in Europe,"' she
declared. "As to whether Europe
ought not to straighten out her af
fairs before America comes in, it
seems to me that when a house is on
fire, it is a wise neighbor who goes
to help put the fire out. And If the
man who lives across the street Joins
in also and pumps water, the con
flagration will stop all the sooner."
The "heart-to-hcart talks" at the
Washington conference ought to have
made the relations between Great
Britain and America foolproof. Lady
Astor thought.
The Genoa conference she declared
already a success, inasmuch as it
had brought the leaders of Russia,
France, Germany and England to
gether at one table. .France and Rus
sia must reduce armaments, she be
lieved. She thought that what the
world needed most just now was more
common sense and good will and less
suspicion.
