THE MORNING OltEGONIAN, MONDAY. JTJLT 31, 19213 7, HOOD RIVER FOLK HEAR BILLY SUNDAY Evangelist Brings Laughs and Tear Drops. 'HEDGEHOG PIETY' IS HIT "God Don't Pass Buck to Any body," Among Sew Phrases. Flappers' Wiles Described. HOOD RIVER, Or., July 30. (Special.) "I come to Oregon every cummer to rest," declared Rev. Billy Sunday today in his annual eermon to his valley neighbors at Riverside Community church, "but I can ,never resist the call to ad dress you friends." Mr. Sunday declared his annual anticipations of his journey to the Pacific northwest and his arrival in the Cascades were as happy as those days when his pride bubbled over in the possession of a pair of red-topped, copper-toed boots. Mr. Sunday named a long list of eastern cities where he will hold evangel istic services the coming year. "If I don't come beck next sum mer I'll be in heaven." Christian's Hope Put High. "I appreciate the sacrifice of you mothers with small children who cannot come to church without bringing them," said Mr. Sunday, "but I am going to ask that you take them out if they begin to cry." And then he launched into one of Jiis typical sermons, going from the eublime to the ridiculous and mak ing his hearers laugh while wiping tway tear drops. "Be ready always to give an an swer," was his text, and he declared the hope of a Christian the only olace for human soul, in compari son with which wealth, fame and personal attraction are as nothing." These are some of the new phrases Jittered by the famed preacher: . ' We should use more sweet oil nd less cayenne pepper in our dish of critcism., -If we did 'this the devil would be In the hospital." Ile paths of glory lead to the Active. You may have heard the crowds saying this morning that they were going to hear Bill preach. Nay, nay, they just stopped awhile. They were just on a detour," "Hedgehog Piety" Criticised. "Out of the cornucopia of heaven God pourj out on us every blessing. Yet just how many of you ate your breakfasts this morning without bowing your head in thanks, just like a hog over the slop trough? "If I were the Lord, I'd swat some of these old stiffs so hard that there would be nothing left for the devil to levy on but a bunch of whiskers and a bad smell. "Some folks think the more they look like a.hedgehog the more pious they are. I like to see people neat. The neatest folk of the Old Testa ment wer- the high priests and tha garments they wore were cut like God told them to. "Hang up before me the fashion plate of any age and I'll tell you the morals of that age. "God don't pass the buck to any body." Wiles of Flapper Described. Mr. Sunday gave a vivid descrip tion of the wiles of the flapper, whose clothes, he declared, would be insufficient for making the tail of a kite. He told the story of Abraham and Sarah, when they visited in the for ign land and the king's eyes fell on Sarah, who was a "good looker." Abraham, Mr. Sunday said, knew the customs o. the country and he knew that he would lose his wife in the king's harem if he told the truth, so he announced that she was his Bister. "I'd lie to save Mrs. Sunday from such an old hellion," said Mr. Sun day, "and make it right with God afterward." Riverside church overflowed, many motor tourists from other states attending the services. tended that Kelso is approximately the central point of the county, more than four-fifths of the papulation of the'county residing. closer to Kelso than to Kalama, but because of op position vote in the north end of the county Kelso has not been able to poll the required three-fifth vdte. Four years ago Kelso failed to win the county seat by but 26 votes. E. W. Ross was selected as man ager of the present campaign and H. E. McKenney, Lee F. Jones, J. A. Alexander, E. E. Brown .and B. M. Atkins were selected as a nomi nating committee to nominate the executive committee and other com mittees "who will be chosen at an other meeting next Friday. This will be the fifth county seat fight in Cowlits county in 16 years, the elections coming every four years. LIGHT OFFERED TAGOMfl NEW PLAN IS SUGGESTED BY TRACTION COMPANY. Substitute Proposed for Munici pal Line Agreed Upon by Cities on Puget Sound. TACOMA. Wash., July 30. (Spe cial.) An offer to furnish the cities of Tacoma and Seattle service for their light plants, for a considera tion to be agreed upon by negotia tions, was made yesterday to Com missioner Davisson by Manager Sullivan of the Tacoma Railway & Power company. The offer has been made as a substitute for the two cities building their own transmis sion line at a cost of about $150,000, according to Mr. Sullivan. ' In the letter submitting his pro posal, Mr. Sullivan suggested that the company's- plan might be economically advisable. Reference to the restricted use of an intercity power line caused some doubt of the meaning in the mind of Commis sioner Davisson, who passed the offer on to City Attorney Dennis for his study. The offer to furnish service comes after the cities of Tacoma and Se attle have already contracted with each other and agreed upon the mu tual service and after ordinances have been passed and contracts for poles, wire insulators and trans formers have been let, it was point ed out yesterday at the city hall. That he had approached the Stone Webster companies to furnish inter city service before entering into construction agreements, and had been turned down, was the state ment of Commissioner Davisson, who viewed the offer as coming too late. . ART LOSSES HEAVY UNIVERSITY FIRE Classroom Notes Impossible to Replace Destroyed. SCULPTURE IS BURNED CONFECTIONER TO MOVE Swetland's Establishment to Open Up in Koyal Bakery Store. The Royal bakery retail store and restaurant, for years a land mark on .upper Morrison street, was closed yesterday and the work of remodel ing the place for use as the new location of Swetland's confectionery store will be started today. The Royal bakery establishment was purchased last week by J. E. Hawkins, proprietor of Swetlands, and the 15-year lease was assigned to the confectionery store. The deal, which represented rentals ag gregating approximately $200,000, was negotiated by Leon Bullier, manager of the leasing department of the F. E. Taylor company. It was estimated that it will re quire at least 30 days to remodel the new establishment for the use of the confectionery store. About $10,000 is to be expended. . The sale 6f the store means that the Royal bakery is going out of the retail business entirely, it was announced. COAL IS DECLARED FAIR' Cinnabar Product Is Considered Good Enough for Coke. HOQUIAM, Wash., July 30. (Spe cial.) It was estimated there are 200,000,000 tons of sub-bitumkious coal in the cinnabar coal veins about ten miles northwest of Onalaska, Lewis county, and samples analyzed "appear to be a fair grade coal that would probably coke readily and serve as well for steaming as any coal now being marketed from Washington mines," said a report submitted by W. H. Peters, port en gineer, to the port commission fol lowing an investigation July 16. Mr. Peters went on to say that the situation seems ideal for min ing operations, as the site would allow the operator to discharge hia mined coal at gravity from the maiu tunnels directly into railroad cars It is estimated 100,000,000 tons could be reached from three main tunnels in this manner. ROAD BIDS TO BE ASKED Washington to Contract for Sand and Gravel for 1923. KELSO, Wash., July 30. (Special.) The state highway department of Washington will receive bids early in September for placing of sand and gravel for use in paving the Pacific highway between Kalama and Toledo, 35 -miles, next year. Contractors have had difficulty in getting gravel this year and to avoid this condition next year the contract for gravel will be awarded in advance. The state highway board plans to award the contract for paving this entire stretch of highway next year in seven con tracts of five miles each. The highway will be closed and travel detoured via the west side highway from Toledo and the Co lumbia will be crossed at Kelso via the Long-Bell ferry. The state will provide $1,400,000 for this paving work. , BEND DAILY PRESS QUITS Paper to Be Issued as Weekly " Prom Now On. BEND, Or.,' July 30. (Special.) With this morning's issue the Bend Daily Press suspended publication after Demg in tne local field for a little more than a year. In a state ment contained in the last issue, recognition was made of the fact that the daily field here is large enough for but one paper. The press will continue as a weekly pub lication. Under the editorship of A. Whis- nant, the Press started an afternoon daily in December, 1916, and early in the next year suspended publica tion, to run as a weekly until 1921, when the daily again made its ap pearance, this time as a morning paper. A few months later, th name was changed to the Oregonian Sun, but on Christmas morning the old name was again taken. Avard Fairbanks Declares Noth ing Except "The Doughboy" Is Left of Work. EUGENE,' Or.,vJuly 30.-t-(Special.) Loss approximating $15,000 was in flicted on the contents of the uni versity buildings destroyed by fire Saturday afternoon, according to the latest figures. About half is repres ented by the personal possessions of faculty members. The question of just- what form tha replacement will take is yet to be decided. About ten buildings, in cluding several residences at dis tances as far as 200 yards from the burning structures, were on fire at different times, and were saved only through the hardest kind of work. The most tragic results of the fire were the losses of the work of years by Avard Fairbanks, sculptor; Miss Maud I. Kerns, head pt the depart ment of normal arts, and Dr. John F. Bovard, head of the school of physical education. In money their losses aggregate thousands of dol lars, but In each case the money loss is far outweighed by the destruc tion of priceless personal posses sion which can never be replaced. Each had taken to the university from home many of their personal records and treasures for the use of the classes. Fairbanks' Loss $2000. Mr. Fairbanks estimated his own personal loss at between $2000 and $3000, while the loss to the depart ment is $1000. "The whole of my work for two years is gone," said Mr. Fairbanks today, "except the doughboy statue." The original model is now in the east being cast for the state of Idaho, while the smaller model is safe in the home of President Campbell. Photographs, negatives and paintings which Mr. Fairbanks had been collecting for many years, clippings of historic value, a large part of his personal library and a lot of material he was making ready to be put into book form were de stroyed. One of the few things saved was the plaster cast of the mother group, which is to be placed in the women's quadrangle. Miss Kerns lost almost every bit of her art possessions, including valuable pictures and photographs, a great deal of illustrative material, and all her class lecture notes gathered in years' work. . 2000 Loss Suffered. Her personal loss was- hot less than $2000. Miss Victoria Avakian, also of the normal arts department, suffered, a loss of several hundred dollars' worth of her personal prop erty. More than $3000 loss was in volved on the department property. The building loss is still estimated at close to $50,000, including about $2000 damage to the roof of Mc- Clure hall and to the contents by water. Dr. John F. Bovard, head of the school of physical education, was another who lost the output of the labor of years. Dr. Bovard's work in zoology, notes of lectures dating back 20 years, none of which can be replaced, books which are difficult or impossible of replacement; and the results of his own research in the field of zoology, are entirely gone. Dr. Bovar-d is still unable to give an estimate of the financial loss but he estimated it at $1000, while the university health service lost about $4500. - ' Cause Is Undetermined. The cause of the fire' has not been determined.- The power plant ad joining "was using spark arresters, making: sparks from that source un likely, in the judgment of university authorities. The destruction of valuable ob jects in the art department and the school of physical education .has directed anew the attention of the university authorities to the fact that with the exception" of one small steel frame annex, the library build ing, housing 106,000 volumes, is far from fireproof. called again and again at every performance.

KANSAS GOVERNQR TALKS EDITOR WHITE CENSURED FOR STRIKE STAND. Duty of Every Good Citizen Said Have Been to Help j Keep Lid Down. to (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.) MONMOUTH, 111., July 30. Gov ernor AlleD - of Kansas, who ad dressed the general convention of the Young People's Christian union of the United Presbyterian church here last night, said. William Allen White, editor of the Emporia Ga zette, was guilty of engaging in a conspiracy to intimidate men who wanted to exercise -the liberty of their rights to work. However, later In his addresss, the governor said h's friend could be trusted and had no intention of harming anyone. The liberty to work, the speaker said, is denied men in every state except Kansas. It did not exist at Herrin nor later in Galesburg, 111. "If with freedom of speech we had an equal measure' of loyalty to gov ernment," said the governor, "what a people we would be!" Getting back to Editor White, Governor Allen said the greatest drnger from him was when White got to working his typewriter when he was warm. "We were sitting on a lid," the governor said, "and trying to keep it steady. It was the duty of every good citizen to help us keep it down and White was one man we could not afford to have making faces at the law." "Speech is not the only thing that ought to be free," Governor Allen said. "The right to work and right for protection when a man wants to wnrk: the right to have fuel and transportation are equally impor tant." Governor Allen was reticent about discussing his recent disagreement with Mr. White when interviewed, and declined to make further com ment on the editor's card, placed in the window of his newspaper office.

Prisoner Refuses to Shield Man Unless He Returns to Offer Aid Immediately. (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, July 30. Denial that she is a "lady bootlegger" was made Saturday by Mrs. Edith . Stevens, pretty and 19, who declared she is being held' by federal authorities as "bait to lure out of hiding the man the federal authorities really want." This man; she said, is Antonio Cassese, - millionaire, said by prohi bition officials to be the dlrector-in-chief of rum-rimning operations be tween Bermuda and New York. Mrs. Stevens previously had re fused to talk since her arrest on a charge of conspiracy with Cassese to smuggle vast quantities of whis ky into the United States from Ber muda. Cassese jumped a $5000 bond. "I" am waiting now to see what kind of man Cassese really is," said Mrs. Stevens; ','if he allows me to re main' in jail, a victim of "my friend ship for him, if he does not come back and extricate me from this trouble into which I have been drawn through him, then he is not the man I thought him and I will not shield him. "But if, on reading of my arrest, he returns to rescue me from this situation, then it will be different I have great confidence in him."

That's what they want." m 66oricM new tte prices .rldju'c mikag&cver known The new base line tire prices established by Goodrich, effec tive July 20th, give motorists a definite guide to tire prices as Goodrich Tires are the definite standard of Tire jquality.

Hippodrome. VARIETY punctuates all the acts on the new, bill which opened at the Hippodrome yesterday. Joe Boganney's octet of comedians top line the list, but there are other acts -on the bill which are equally of topnotch caliber. Ethel Gray, for instance, is one of these. She is a beauty and has a lovely voice, sweet and high, - which she uses all too seldom, for the audience liked her singing and her effective playing on the French horn and would have relished more of her songs and music. Her partner, Arthur Page, js a good comedian who uses orig inal methods and keeps the laughter going. Their act is one of the pop ular numbers on the bill,- Another first-rate act is that of George Mack, a comedian, and his pretty partner, Mildred Dean. Their comedy amuses and their singing voices blend in delightful harmony. A fun riot on the bill are Quinn and Caverly, who exchange obser vations and riddles. The curtain, slowly .rising, affords a constant surprise and comedy element as it reveals the outside of several build ings plastered with signs, the read ing of which gives the audience a huge kick.

Copyright 1022, by the Chicago Tribune.) TOKIO, July 30 Unexpected hitches are appearing in the Chita Japanese negotiations to renew their conferences with a view to concluding a commercial , .treaty. Chita, presumably encouraged - by Moscow, is showing its teeth, and is abruptly refusing to consider some of the Japanese proposals regarding the scope of the conference. , The Osaka Mainichi states that it is known here that Chita is sub mitting everything t t Moscow, whence its instructions come. The withdrawal of the Japanese forces from Siberia is now regarded in soviet circles as evidence of an In ternal trouble in Japan which is strengthening the Chita attitude. The Mainichi says: "While Japan is anxious to withdraw peacefully, regardless of Chita's relations with Moscow, and to conclude a treaty of amity with Chita, should the latter adopt a procrastinating attitude, de pending upon Moscow for support and thereby falling to sign a basic agreement by the middle of August, Japan will be obliged to resort to a free hand for the protection of Japanese subjects in Siberia and the disposition of seized arms. "The result of such a free hand will be disadvantageous to'Chita. It is understood that the Japanese government will draft policies pre pared to meet either contingency while hoping for a sincere reply from Chita." Brlitsh Cruiser Coming. SAN DIEGO, Cal., July 30.
