19 TIIK M"M.Y OltKfiOrAN. I'OICTM Nil. JUNE 0. 1913. GQHNERSTONE LAID By REED STUDENT David K. Bruce Officiates and Miss Fatland Assists at Campus Day Exercises. STANFORD'S HEAD SPEAKS Point Is Emphasized That Present Pay Rc-qnlrcments Are for Jicmoeratlc Men Ready to T)o World's Work. TT.eed College campus was the arena Cf another epoch-making; event yester day afternoon when the cornerstone of the dormitory building was laid In the presence of a large audience of repre sentatlve people of Portland, followed by addresses by Dr. David Starr Jor dan. of Stanford University, and Presl dent Foster of Reed College. The ceremony attending the laying of the cornerstone began soon after the special cars from the city arrived on the campus. After an Introductory ad dress by William P. Olds, secretary of the board of trustees of the college, Mies Ellen Evelyn Fatland deposited a copper tube undor the stone containing the signatures and photographs of the atudent body of Reed College. The stone was then set In place by David K. Brace, chairman of the Student Council. After prayer had been of fered by Rev. William H. Boddy. the audience proceeded to a point on the northeastern corner of the campus known as "the Amphitheater, where the exercises were continued. A platform had been erected at the bottom of the ravin and from this the speakers faced the auditors scattered over the grassy slope. The exercises here were, under the direction of Cyrup A. Dolph.' vice-president of the board of trustees of Reed College. The sing ing of Luther's hymn and the Reed College song was a feature of the pro pram me. In Introducing President Jordan. Mr. Dolph referred to him as 'the leading educator on the pacific Coast and the presiding genius of a great university." He pointed out sev eral reasons why the relations between Reed College and Stanford University should be sympathetic, for the reason that they were both mad possible by the philanthropy of high-minded men and women, and that while their en dowments were not equal, their ulti mata purposes were Identical. Dr. Jerdaa Makes Address. In opening his address on the sub ject "Neither Hallowed Nor Hampered by Tradition." Dr. Jordan told of the time wbsn Dr. Eliot, of Harvard, cam to Stanford to assist In the dedication of that Institution. On that occasion Dr. Jordan recalled that Dr. Eliot pointed out that the then young uni versity bad no tender associations clinging. Ivy-like, as he expressed It, to Its fresh new walls; that It was neither hallowed nor hampered by tra ditions: that Its fingerposts all pointed forward. "Tour Institution has under those terms the primal gift of youth," said Dr. Jordan. "The greatest gift In the world Is youth. Dr. Foster has an advantage over both President Eliot and myself. He has the strength of youth, his future Is ahead of him. while our life la behind us. Whatever he does you may be sure he Is going to do better." Dr. Jordan declared that the young college must be adapted to the country that Is young and feels the strength of youth. While Reed College has no traditions of self-denial, of self-sacrifice, has had no one who Is a founder of a school of thought. Dr. Jordan said the greatest honor la to be the founder of a new school, a new way of think ing. "Reed College hasn't a single alumnus of whom It Is ashamed," said Dr. Jordan. "It has no leaders in the love of truth. Bo leaders In public service; no great genius hss carved his name In soma of the soft brick. Tet this whole space has always been In tended for a colloge. Houses and fac tories were kept out of It. Kdaeatina Saoald Be Practical. "Tne greatest discovery of the lth century was that of the reality of ex ternal things. That meant the develop ment of applied science. The greatest thing that this college can have la to get awny from the governing Idea that In order to educate yon tnnat do some thing else. The education you young men and women get here ehould not take you out of the awlm. It should put yon Into the swim with the like Ilbood of making yon leaders of men; not leaders of super-men, men who are out of touch with every-day life. It should mske you young men and wo men just as useful as you can possi bly be. One of th things that Reed College Is going to escape Is that old idea w brought over from Germany that the teacher has no concern with the lives of students. The teacher baa the first concern In the lives or stu deals. This college will get away from th Idea that a man Is graduated Into a top hat and kid gloves. Th college should graduate men Into work; It should get them away from the aristo cratic Idea; It should make democratic men and women."

Th afternoon at Oxford la given over to athletics. Hardly a half-doz en undergraduates In a college will oe round at work between the hours of 1 and 4:10. Rooms and quadranglea are deserted, while the undergraduates are off rowing on the river, running on th track, or playing football, hockey, la crosse, tennis or cricket. Th last two-named sport are In dulged In only during the Bummer term, that Is. from April to June. Then, on any sunny afternoon, hun dreds of whlte-shlrted, white- trouser ed athletes may be seen on cricket fields and tennis courts, forming a pic turesque sight against th background of fresh green turf and trim hedges and stately trees, which are seen at their beat In Oxford. One Is surprised to see few spectators at the games be tween th Oxford colleges. But that Is easily explained. If Morton la play ing Halltol at rugby football, there are present no .shouting devotees from either college to urge their IS on to victory. Of th Merton and Balllol atudents who are not In the game. tome are rowing In the eight on th river, others playing soccer football, while hockey and other sport claim their quota.

Rowland, prominent members of the typographical union and em ployes In the offlco of State printer Dunlway, Issued a, statement today In reply to Harris. The controversy hss arisen over an effort on the part ot Harris and others to secure from th typographical union her an appropriation to aid In cir culating petitions tn place the pro posed State Printer flat-salary measure on th ballot. In their statement to day. In response to Harris, they say: "We feel It our duty to correct a statement made by R. A. Harris In regard to the action or Capital Typo graphical Union on the circulation of the petitions for the referring to th people of a bill enacted by th last Legislature That gentleman Insin uate that It la because Mr. Dunlway la our employer that we oppose the measure. This he knows to be false. Layalty I Expressed. "It Is tru that every man employed In th state printing office la loyal to Mr. Dunlway, for never In all their previous experience have they been ao well treated. However, there ar mem bers of th subordinate union who are not working for Mr. Dunlway, who are also opposed to th action of soma of Its members In continually attaching the Btate Printer. Th laws govern ing our body specifically prohibit en tering politics, and more particularly prohibit using our funds for political purpose. "Mr. Dunlway was elected oy in peopla of th tat under th present srstem. and the Legislative Assembly refused to Interfere with the will of the people. When th law was passed pro viding for th purchase of a printing plant and electing a Stat Printer to superintend the plant, th Legislature thought It wis not to Intertere witn an official's emoluments during his term of office, and provided that the new law should go Into effect at the expiration of the present Incumbent's term. The members or Mr. Dunlway s fore are not objecting to this, for while verv one with any knowledge of atate-owned printing plants fully ap- nreclates the fact that the printing win cost th taxpayers many times what It does at present, yet since It was the will of th lawmaking body of the state they were willing to abide by It. "Not so with several other members of our union wtth selfish Interests and mercenary motives. They Immediately started a move to place th bill before the people, and to give It added color, tried to Implicate th union n tn movement. As a matter of fact the union has no fight to make on the State Printer. He has always paid more than th seal called for, and al ways treated his employes wtth the ut most consideration. Th more con servatlva and fair-minded members of the union at once opposed the move, being outvoted by a small majority In every Instance. "The commute referred to by Mr. Harris was called together by Mr. Hill secretary of the local union, a man who has sworn to oppose Mr. Dunlway as long as he is In a position to do so. Whenever the matter has been re ferred to. It Is always stated that Mr. Daly and members of the Legislature started the movement, evidently with an effort to give It a bona fid ap pearanc. It is a fact known to every member of our union, and also stated In th press a year ago, that this com mittee was called together by Mr. Hill himself. That committee, as far as we have been able to learn, has never taken any action In support of the movement, further than to get th State Federation to Indorse the bill as passed by th Legislature. Maltaesaah Refusea to Act. "Multnomah Union at Its last meeting refused to take action on the matter. so we are informed.

The new a-overnment In China has readily acknowledged Its obllgatlona to fulfill all monetary enfssements of tbe former Imperial government. There are. as far as foreign creditors are concerned, two lares burdens Inherited from the now overthrown dynasty. One Is tbe war compensation la con sequence of the Boxer troubles. l"p to 1940 China Is bound to pay annually a fixed amount. If we compute the total of these Installments, we arrive at t0,000.00. Compared with this amount, the railway loans oontracted during the last 14 years are, after all. not so very larva. They ggregate 14.0.000. The eldest loan Is that rranted by Ruesla la list; tta nominal value Is 15.000.000. Then followed a period when English capitalists com peted with a Belgian-French syndi cate for eupplying the Chlneae govern ment with the money needed for build ing up a railway system within the 11 provinces. England advanced tlO.noo.. 00 and the Belg-laa-Krencb syndicate tt.t00.00S. Japan came In next, and la course of time Inveated nearly It 000. 00. Fourth In chronological order Is the Anglo-German Railway loan of Itot. amounting to 11.000.000. The last loan was contracted In III I. when the so-called "four powers syndicate" (the CJertnea-Asiatic Bank, tha Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, the French Bank da l'lndochlne aod J.
