IQ THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, MARCH 14, 1915. , SUPPORT PLEDGED TO I. ALDERMJU District Leaders Heartily Fa vor Re-election of School Superintendent. WORK IN OFFICE LAUDED Movement Decried to Oust Man, to Whom Home Credits System, School Gardens and Agricul tural High Are Attributed. porvrs rr i-tervtews ott BETESTIOS OF MR. AL DEMIAX. Ha has placed the Portland public schools in the front ranks of the country. Be established borne credits, encouraged the school garden system, urged vocational train ing, encouraged the establish ment of an Agricultural High School and eliminated the "'cram ming" process and shortened the course. Ha has shown himself a pro gressive citizen and school man In his administration. Mr. Alderman la a live-wire; he does things. Citizens of Sellwood heartily favor ' the retention of Superintendent Alder man at the head of the Portland puDiio schools and would deprecate his dis placement at this time by anyone else. according: to a statement made yes terday by A. N. Willis, president of the Sellwood association, wnicn recenuy was formed to improve the Sellwood sohools. Citizens and members of the Methodist Brotherhood and Current Events Club of the Sellwood Presbyte rian Church, are represented in the association. "We have taken no action expressing car sentiments." said Mr. wills, -out the general opinion In this suburb is so pronounced and so nearly unanimous that Mr. Alderman oe reiainea u mo head of our schools that any action would be superfluous. Mr. Alderman Is a live wire. He does things, and that Is what this community nice in mm. H knows what to do and goes ahead and does it. Any change that would result in his being displaced ry any body else would be little short of a calamity and should not be tolerated In Portland. Mr. Alderman is a pro- -resive citizen, as well as scnooi man, I doubt much if any such movement to displace him can .succeed. Rev. J. E. Youel Urges Retention. Rev. J. E. Youel. pastor of the Spo kane-Avenue Presbyterian Church, said: "I am much in ravor or me re t.ntinn of Citv Superintendent Alder man at the head of our public schools and I believe the sentiment in this ...hnrh favors his retention strongly. Peter Hume, president of the Bank or Sellwood. remarked that "removal of Mr. Alderman at this time from the head of the Portland schools would be little short of a calamity. I doubt if there is any substantial backing to this movement to displace hem. This sentiment in the Sellwood community. I am quite positive, favors the reten tion of Mr. Alderman at the head of our schools, and outside this commu nity I believe the sentiment favors his retention. I have known Mr. Alderman for many years and regard him as a capable school man and progressive. I have wondered who can be back of this movement, or whether it has any strength or not." H. M. Huff, president of the Sellwood Board of Trade, in viewing the situa tion, considers that "public opinion in this suburb is strongly in favor of re taining Mr. Alderman. This is the Judg ment of fmllles who have children in the Sellwood School." Support Fixed at M Per Cent. Mrs. W. D. Palmer, president Sell wood Women's Auxiliary of the T. M. C A. says: am sure that the sentiment In the Sellwood community is practically unanimous in favor of City Superin tendent Alderman's retention. They be. lleve in him and there has been no criticism of him In this suburb. A census of this community. I am certain, would show 90 per cent in favor of his re election. Why should there be a change? There is no good reason for any." Other sections also condemn the movement to displace Mr. Alderman: M. B. McFaul. president of the East Side Bosiness Men's Club, said yester day: "It would be a crying shame to displace Alderman with anybody. Rather we should retire the man who Is trying to put Mr. Alderman out. He has no interest in the Portland schools, and should be retired. We need Mr. Alderman right where he is. Mr. Alder man has shown himself to be a pro gressive educator. The people of this rlty should get behind him and sup port his efforts to improve the Port land publics schools." Club Voices Fublle Sentiment, E. M. Orth. president North Port land Commercial Club, remarks that the sentiment of the masses favors the retention of Mr. Alderman and is for his re-election as head of the Port land schools. All this talk about put ting another man in his place should stop, and If the sentiment of the public was known generally it would cease. "Mr. Alderman has improved the Portland public schools greatly, and nine out of ten of the people, I am confident, want him re-elected and will demand that he be re-elected. There Is no reason for any change, and I favor letting the Board of Edu cation know that sentiment of the peo. pie Is back of Mr. Alderman. I favor the North Portland Commercial Club taking up the matter." Mrs. E. H. Ingham, president of the Woodstock Parent-Teacher Association and the Woodstock Good Government Club, In decrying the movement, added: The sentiment of this section of the Portland district strongly favors the retention of Mr. Alderman. Mr. Alder man is a man of Ideals. We need such a man. We are to carry out his ideals. We think In this section that the removal of Mr. Alderman from the head of the Portland schools would be a grave mistake. We shall take up the matter at our meeting Friday." A. N. Searle, secretary of the Mon ta villa Board of Trade, In Indorsing Mr. Alderman, said: "The sentiment in Monta villa favors the retention of Mr. Alderman. He has shown himself a progressive educator and, in my Judg ment, to displace him with a new man would be poor Judgment." Superintendent's Work Landed. I. M. Lepper, secretary East Side Business Men's Club: "Mr. Alderman has made good in his two years' service at the head of the Portland schools. Re made good as State Superintendent. His removal would be the result of "spite." Mr. Alderman's methods have attained National and international no tiee and adoption. In several reepects Mr. Alderman has come to the front as ur foremost educator. Ttrst Ime credits ertaillebtd to the Portland schools are due to him and are working out; second, school gardens, which are being encouraged efforts; third, the establishment of a .... . , TS, great agricultural mgn scnooi on di vision and East Fifty-fourth streets. U.o i C .. w& Tin si am A .nd which will be the first of the sort in the United States; fourth, the develop ment of the vocational school idea at the Ockley Green School, and, fifth and to my opinion the most Important, v. nf th course. the throwing out of 'Junk' and ceasing what is called by scnooi men as mo na ming." If Mr. Alderman had done noth ing else than to eliminate the cram ming process he would deserve well of the consideration of the people of this district. But these are only- few of the reasons why he should be retained. To replace Mr. Alderman would bring Portland schools into ridicule. A pro gressive man Is sure to antagonize some In- the district. He could not go ...a wfthnni Holna thlB. He may have run counter to some of the Direc tors, but this should cut no iigure.

"Xn c-rAAter servloe has been per formed in the past 25 years than that rendered by those who successruuy mi bustered against the proposed ship pur chase bill in Congress and thus pre vented the Government from embarking that far on the line of socialism," de clared ex-United States Senator Charles W. Fulton In an after-luncheon address before the Portland Realty Board at the Commercial Club. Ex-Senator Fulton contended that the filibuster as a remedy was never in voked by the minority against any measure that had been indorsed by the people in advance, and cited the lacK of filibuster on the tariff issue as an In stance of this truth. Speaking specifi cally of the shin purchase bilL he said it was utterly impractical and that dire results might have followed its enaci mflnt "It seems to me that the operation of vessels la the last thing the oovern- ment should undertake," said Mr. Ful' ton. "Suppose the Frye had been a Government vessel carrying the official flag of this country. Think of the hu miliation that would have resulted and the storm that would have been aroused throughout the country. When the Gov ernment sets out to operate any line oi business now carried on by private en terprise I believe It should occupy the entire field." Following: sharp talks by E. B. Mac- Naughton and M. J. Clohessy, authoriza tion was given President Vincent to ap point a committee to co-operate with the Builders Exchange in campaigning for a more liberal building code, and to Investigate the reason the contract for paving the interstate bridge Had not been let to the lowest bidder. Mr. Mac- Nausrhton declared that the Portland building code was more drastic than that In any of the other leading cities of the country. As a matter for future consideration John H. Hartoe suggested a movement to set Sixth street aside as an exclusive boulevard where no streetcars or busi ness vehicles would be allowed. Before Frank McCrillis took charge of the meeting for the day, F. E. Taylor. chairman of the entertainment commit tee, announced that Governor Withy- combo would address the Board next Friday.

Scenic and Fishing Opportunities of Cnrry County Inviting to Tourists at All Seasons. "Curry County, the southwest corner of Oregon, the farthest west county In the United States and Isolated from steamship and railroad communication as well as having a major portion of the county tied up in Government tim ber reserves, is the brightest spot In Oregon," said R, B. Knorr, a druggist of Gold Beach who visited Portland Thursday. "The Brookings Lumber Company has spent about $2,000,000 on its plat at Brookings, across from Harbor in the southern end of the county and is making preliminary arrangements for a $2,000,000 ocean dock to accommodate steam vessels. The wharf will be erect ed behind a point which projects into the sea and therefore offers protection. "Between Harbor and Brookings flows the beautiful Chetco River, which is noted for its fine fishing. Salmon are plentiful for miles and then trout commence. The county bridge across this river at Harbor is nearing completion. "Harbor Is upon a level bench of land 80 feet above the Pacific and of fers an expansive, uninterrupted view of the Pacific Ocean coast line, as well as of the lower part of the Chetco River. "The fishing In Rogue River was bet ter this year than last, and the Wed- derburn cannery is enlarging Its plant and also adding a cheese factory. The dairying industry of the county is In creasing dally; a large settlement has started on Crystal River half way be tween Goldbeach, the county seat, and Brookings. The outlook for a road to be built up Rogue River by the United States Forestry Service is good. "Many automobile parties make loop going from Roseburg to Myrtle Point, Bandon, Port Orford. Gold Beach, Crescent City, Cal., Grants Pass and back to Roseburg. This route offers unequaled scenery. Redwood, fir and other forests, trout streams, rivers, valleys and the Paciflo Ocean, with Its rugged coast, are passed and the fish lng and hunting is unsurpassed in the United States.
