PROPOSAL IS REJECTED
Schuette-Lanz Company of Ger
many Refuses Offer of $100,
000,000, Federal Support.
(Copyright, 1D22, by the New York World.
Published by Arrangement.)
BERLIN, July 16. (Special Cable.)
Professor Johann Schuette of the
Schuette-Lanz Airship company, who
is to build the airships for the Gen
eral Air Service's proposed New
York-Chicago line, today declared
British interests seek to have Eng
land made the middleman between
Germany and the United States for
the making of airships.
Professor Schuette says Major
Boothby, representing a big British
aviation concern, approached him in
the matter. Boothby wanted Schu
ette's company to build airships
ordered in England by America, but
which the British are unable to
supply.
British Support FromUed.
When it was learned that Schuette
was to build the general air service's
ships, the allies objected and the
reparations commission forbade it.
Then Professor Schuette sold his
patents to the American concern and
it was decided to build the dirigibles
in America under his direction.
Today Professor Schuette asserted
the R-38 disaster has caused the
British to doubt their ability to
build big ships. He says Major
Boothby promised- him $100,000,000
capital and the support of the Brit
ish government ir he agreed to th
scheme for dealing with America
through England and thus attaining
the results the reparations commis
sion vetoed.
Offer Is Refused.
Professor Schuette refused, be
cause, he said, he thought the main
purpose of the British interest was
to get German construction secrets.
"Also the British are trying to get
German co-operation in order to
bluff America on the superiority of
British airships," he declared.
The inventor expressed regret
that the Versailles treaty forbids
Germany to construct new, safer
planes for' rapid world traffic. He
said he" hoped American pressure
would lead to revision of these re
strictions. In his opinion German experts
have demonstrated that they are th6
only men in the world who can suc
cessfully build saje large-type di
rigibles. DAVEIIP0RTS0N VISIT

and polish still remains Indian to
the western whites. Further to com

love with the daughter of a judge,
who still retains all his early hatred
for the Indian race. The halfbreed,
however, presses his suit and the

infatuated with the- Indian, and
really cares sincerely for a less spec

Then the halfbreed lets go of the

ROUND TRIP RATES CUT
New Southern Pacific Schedule to

The Southern Pacific will inau
gurate a new schedule of round

The round-trip fare between Port
laud and San Francisco will be
$43.25, whereas the one-way fare
now is $26.96. The round-trip be

CITY'S IK
lulu
Rev. Mr. Bryant Sees Police
Hold Liquor Raids.
SITUATION HELD SERIOUS
Liquor Kept In Half of P6rtland
Homes, Pastor Told; Much
Lawlessness Found.
"If anyone doubts that the boot
leggers and home-brew venders are
a gang of lawbreakers, liars and de
ceivers, a few nights with the moral
squad and a few afternoons in the
police court will disabuse his mind,"
said Rev. Daniel Bryant, associate
pastor of the East Side Baptist
church, in his sermon last night,
"Seeing Portland. By Night." Mr.
Bryant spent a week inspecting
Portland's underworld with the as
sistance, of L. V. Jenkins, chief of
police. ,
"My experience with the moral
squad in their raiding tours was ex
citing," sard Mr. Bryant. "Our cap
tain had his pocket full of search
warrants. Those four detectives
went at their task that night with
a daring, a swiftness of action and
a success like the movements of our
boys at Chateau-Thierry. Those de
tectives went over, ' the walls and
casings, took up the carpets and
examined the floors, opened dresser
drawers and searched the premises
from garret to cellar.' , 1 held the
torchlight while the renowned De
tective Smith dug quarts of whisky
buried three feet in the ground
under a woodpile. He worked for
an hour and sweat like a harvest
hand.
Lawyers Heckle Detective
"I went oown to the police court
to hear these cases tried. Attorneys
were there .as counsel for the de
fense. These lawyers heckled the
detectives as they gave their testi
mony, minimized the crimes of the
lawbreakers, pleaded with the court,
turned red in the face, roared out
denunciations against the prose
cuting attorneys and the witnesses
and did -everything to create the
impression that honorable Ameri
can citizens were being insulted and
their liberties traduced. But judg
ment sure and swift fell in the po
lice court. .
" 'But it's no use,' said one of the
detectives to me, 'I spent three
weeks running down the proprietor
of a Chinese lottery. I secured his
arrest and conviction. He was
given a jail sentence of 235 days
and fined $250. The case was ap
pealed and reheard. I was the only
complaining witness and . was not
called. The jail sentence was can
celed and the fine cut from $250 to
$25. That is what I got for my
trouble, except that that Chinaman
grins at me every day on the street.
Situation Held Serious.,
" 'And this is what is happening
to a whole lot of the work that the
police force and the police court
puts through. The federal court
can fine these bootleggers and gam
blers $200 and $300. 'We hardly
dare go above $50, knowing that
the case will be appealed and the
judgment cut down.' -
"The temperance situation is cer
tainly serious in Portland- if . what
these detectives told me is true.
They say there is liquor in perhaps
a0 per cent of the homes in Port
land; that many of the clubs are
getting good bonded whisky, but
that the 'common herd' are drink
ing the home-brew, made in rusty
iron washtubs and boilers and full
of various poisons that simply work
havoc for the drunkard. Is it pos
sible that 50 per cent of the people
of Portland are deliberate law
breakers, violating a statute that
forbids the keeping of liquor in the
homes?
"The Lord Jesus said to his dis
ciples 20 centuries ago; 'Blessed are
your eyes for they see.' , I wonder
if he can say of the church today,
'Blessed are your eyes for they see'?
Police Declared Alert.
"I know that the Portland chief
of police and his staff have eyes
that-see. There are other organiza
tions that see things, but I have
heard the accusation that the typical
church is poorly informed regarding
social conditions. 1 went into
Portland's underworld last week
because there are human beings
there. I wanted to see what the
1000 Chinamen in 'Chinatown' were
doing. I explained to the detective
that I wanted to see 'Chinatown' as
it is. Of course, to make such a
trip, we had to give our word that
no one would be 'pinched.'
"The detective saw the proper
Chinamen. The word was passed
along the line and we were ad
mitted to the gambling dens. A
long passageway and then the 'out
look.' This was a heavy oak door
with holes bored in it, behind which
stood the guard. Back of this, a
heavy iron- door. The bars were
slipped and we passed through.
Then a second heavy iron door. We
passed this also and were at last
In the gambling room. The pro
prietors sit at their tables behind
piles of money. How inviting the
silver looked. What comforts and
pleasures the pile of bank notes of
fered. , '
Opium Den Visited.
"We visited an opium den. There
lay an old man on the smokers' bed.
He was 73 years of age and had
smoked opium for 50 years. His
pipe was inverted over the burning
lamp - and dark fumes of. opium
smoke were emitted from his mouth.
Then the detective told me how
rapidly the nation is drifting to
ward the' widespread use of nar
cotics. He told me that now the
United States consumes from 13 to
72 times as mucb narcotics per
capita as the countries of Europe.
Three hundred and sixty-five tons
of opium imported in 1919. Twice
as much in 1921. Japan buys
enough cocaine in six months to
supply her legitimate needs for 50
years. She sends 50 per cent to
China and 50 per cent here.
"I believe that Portland has, one
of the greatest chiefs and one of the
most "splendid bodies of policemen
and detectives on the coast. If the
public knew a tithe of the tempta
tion, trial and peril constantly sur
rounding these men, if the public
knew of the unvarying integrity,
hpnor, skill and switness that char
acterizes their work, it would rise
up and give them at least a little
of the , meed of praise which -their
work merits." -
DIVINE KIXSHIP EXPLAINED

mm!. i r i M Wit rl
'One of the
Great
mont Presbyterian church, in his
sermon yesterday -morning on "Di
vine Kinship." He preached from
the text Ch. xii:50, "For whosoever
shall do the will of my Father which
is in heaven, the same is my brother
and sister and mother."
"The door of repentance must be
entered to find life," he said. "Faith
in Jesus is the only redeemer and
following where he leads, insures a
life of earthly joy with complete
satisfaction for all our powers for
ever. -
"The earthly kind of Jesus never
understood him. Is it not often
true that those who love us most
stand in the way of progress? They
would shield from exposure, keep us
in their circle and save from criti
cism. The man with a clear per
ception of duty must often break
all bonds in the accomplishment of
his divine commission. The words
of Jesus were startling and funda
mental. When word came that rel
atives without desired audience, he
uttered the text and claimed all his
followers as members of his spir
itual family, 'My mother and my
brethren are those who do my will.'
"Sin is the great divider of man
from men, and of man from God.
True Christianity is the only uni
fier, the reconciling power which
makes men one with each other and
God. Subtle philosophies of men,
trade, social life, education and all
other means fail, while one touch of
the Christ life gives a sense of di
vine kinship.
"The outer circle of men is apa
thetic. They are too engrossed in
world affairs. God's man seeks the
good of all and the glory of his
savior. Men of divine kinship not
only derive life from God, but con
tinue to live in him. This union
is not merely mechanical, but en
grafting. The vine and branch
are one, giving inspiration and
energy for daily living. It follows
that all members of the family
suffer with their head. ' This is
often forgotten. There is a side
to the Christian faith. Conflict
is ever ours, but victory is always
assured. Our future happiness de
pends upon this family union."
FAITH HELD WORK OF GOO
Knowledge, of Goal Declared to
Have Sustained Jesus.
"Faith in God makes the Chris
tian's objectives real now," said Dr.
J. J. Staub. pastor of the Sunny
side Congregational church, yester
day in hig morning sermon, "Faith
Converting Vision Into Power." His
text was Hebrews xii:2, "Looking
unto Jesus, the author and finisher
of faith." He said in part:
"Faith is the work of the holy
spirit in the Christian's heart; the
text declares that Christ is both its
author and finisher. 'We are admonished-
to look to him, for in him
we see vision converted into power.
He knew the goal of his earthly
mission and its sacrifice from the
beginning. In the strength of 'that
goal he endured; 'for the joy that
was set before him he endured the
cross, despising the shame.' It sus
tained him in Gethsemane, in Pi
late's judgment hall, on Calvary.
"The final consummation of his
sacrifice is the kingdom of God.
Our chapter closes with the assur
ance, 'Wherefore we receiving a
kingdom." He taught his disciples
to pray, 'Thy kingdom come,' and
declared, 'When the son of man
shall come in his glory, then shall
he sit upon the throne of his glory.'
