PORTLASD GIRL'S ENGAGE MENT ANNOUNCED. .JM-. r Mlasj Lillian L. Haseiunayer Mr. and Mrs. Hasenmayer an nounce the engagement of their daughter, Lillian L., to Freder ick H. Schmid, of Portland, son of Mr. and Mrs. Rudolf Schmid. Coast in defense of the I. W. W. She made her first fight for workers In her teens, when. In fact, she was only 17 years old. She is now only 27 and has been Identified with the I. W. W. since its organization. Miss Flyrm is today probably the best-known woman labor agitator In the world. She was a close friend and communicant of Connelly, the Provis ional General of the Irish rebel army. who was shot last May. Irish Leader Once American I. W. W. "It is not generally known." said Miss Flynn last night, "but Connelly was one of the first organizers of the W. W. In this country. I knew him personally and worked with him." Miss 1 lynn is a tremendously busy woman. When she isn't lecturing or giving of her personal self In behalf of X. W. W. work she is wrltlne-for labor papers. This is not her first visit to Portland. She came here two years ago on a gen eral lecture tour and was. a guest of honor at the Civic League and a lunch eon given by the Librarians' Associa tion and spoke also at a bin labor meeting. She is known the world over as an organizer and professional agita tor and speaker for labor. Her present visit to Portland is a part of a tour of the Northwest cities in a defense campaign for the 74 I. W. W. members now lodged In the Everett jail, charged with murder. Miss Flynn came here directly from New York to taxe part in the campaign for funds to defend the men. She had been in Minnesota for months engaged In the huge strike conflict of the iron ore miners and had returned to her home in New York for a rest, only to be sum moned to the Northwest to heln In arousing sympathy and obtaining tunas ior me defense of the incar cerated L W. W.'a. Many Strikes Are Helped Miss Flynn has figured In everv strike of Importance In which the I.W. W.'s have taken any part ir. the last iu years and her oratory and fierv de nunclations have attracted wide atten tion to her. She has been arrested time and again. 'The statement has been made that even I cannot figure exactly how often x nave Deen arrested, but that Is not quite true, since I can do It bv care fully going back o'ver every big strike riot or occasion of demonstration by labor," she said. "Invariably I have been, arrested at these times, not for any particular thing, but usually for inciting a riot. "Seven years ago I was jailed in Spo kane for what the authorities were pleased to call violating the law of their state. Fortunately out of the many times I have been arrested I have never been , convicted." She was the moving spirit in the big strike of silk workers in Paterson. N. J., in 1913. and when tried on a charge of inciting a. riot she was defended by two women lawyers, as well as be friended by personal sympathy by Mrs O. H. P. Belmont. Mrs. J. Sargent Crani and other prominent New York women. Mrs. Boluevaln Waa Friend. - She was a personal friend of the late Inez Milholland Bolssevain and counts prominent men and women thinkers and workers her close friends. Miss Flynn is an interesting young woman, of a Maxine Elliott type of Irish beauty. She is thoroughly in sympathy with her work. She refers to the affair at Everett, Wash., as "the biggest labor trial In the history of the world." - "Seventy-four men are - accused of first degree "murder," Miss Flynn said, "all of them workers who took part in a conflict where five workers and two deputies were killed. The side which lost the most men Is, by a queer twist of justice, the side charged with murder. As one I. W. W. said to me, 'It's a case of might makes right.' "My sympathies are entirely with the I. W. W. The amazing thing to me Is that they didn't all get killed. I have been among them In the prison and have heard their stories. "That Is one reason I am here now, to Interest the liberty-loving men and women and the other citizens of this iorinwest in tne cases of these men whose free speech fight has led them into prison and to a murder trial. I am going, to tea toeir atory a N All -Weather Tread on a A Asm jour Goody a a r Scrvicm Station Dealer about the fioodyea Tirm-Saoer Kit. Goodyear Tire is the best guard against winter tire troubles man hs been able to devise. It is double -thick and densely tough, studded with big, rugged, sharp-edged blocks an effective barrier to most punctures, and a vigilant resistant to skidding. It is as sure-footed in snow as a malamute, and as serviceable as your car itself. . Every Goodyear Tire ought to be at work outside a Goodyear Tube. No other tube so safely insures the constant air pressure needed to cushion strain and shock. No other tube is so protected in the making against leak, seep or creep. Goodyear Tires and Goodyear Tubes both can be had from Goodyear Service Station Dealers. Probably there is one in your neighborhood. He is worth searching out and doing business with. For he is there not only to sell you tires, but to help them deliver you their last mile of service (more than you're used to from your present tires) after he has sold them. The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., Akron. Ohio J ea c5d b5 would tell It themselves If they could. "So many of you folk out here have the idea that the I. W. W.'s are mur derers and ought to be hanged. I wish you could know, as I know, the clean young lads, the honest laborers and sterling chaps, out of work, fighting for a principle and put behind bars, simply because, might makes right in Everett, Wash. "I made a talk in Salem and one In Everett, before the State Federations of Labor In both- states, and both bodies adopted strong resolutions de manding a Congressional investigation of the Everett affair. "After Portland L go' on to all the Northwestern cities, one by one, trying to interest folk In these I, W. W. and to raise funds for their defense." believes, will be good for the atate. The lack of liquor, Blsbop Sumner says, will do away with much of the vice of the city. Bartell who saya the prisoners have been -living too high. It has cost 75 cents for each prisoner daily. BISHOP SUMNER IS BACK Portland Regarded as Cleanest City Ho Has Ever Visited. Bishop Walter Taylor Sumner re turned yesterday morning from Cali fornia. The bishop addressed a mass meeting of about 6000, called to con sider the vice question. He told the results of his study and experiences in Chicago.
