HOOD RIVER, Or.. Sept. 28. (Spe
cial.) Angus C. McDonald, son of D.
Mclonald. for many years secretary of
to local Masonic Lodge, has been
lected president of the Anchor and
ArK Club, of the Camp Logan Naval
Training Station, at Zion City 111. The
ptrrpre of the club, which was founded
April, 1917. at the Great Lakes Naval
Training Station, is to practice Ma
sonry as it is taught, to furnish advice
and relieve the distressed, to promote
good fellowship and patriotism and to
Increase the efficiency of military discipline.
Mr McDonald, who enlisted in the
ravy eariy in yit, is now secona-ciass I a
pharmacist mate At M camp, I
Grace E. Hall.
For the past ten months Grace
E. Hall has been contributing
poems to The Oregonian which
have attracted wide attention.
Many people have written let
ters to her and to The Oregonian.
which have been enthusiastic in
the praise of her wjirk.
Mrs. Man was Dorn in Illinois,
of good old New England parent
age. The acceptance and publi
cation of a number of poems.
which were written when she was
a young girl, served as a begin
ning for a, literary career. Later
In a newspaper office in a small.
town, where she was employed
as a reporter and mail clerk, she
began to take a keen Interest In
newspaper work, in which she
showed ability. For two years
she served as a news editor of
Corvallis paper.
As a pastime and as "art for
art's sake," she began contrib
uting poems to The Oregonian a
few months ago. Her poems are
about everyday life and truths.
wMch are written with a vital
quality, which has won recogni
tion and praise.
Mrs. Hall Is fond of out-of-door
life and spends a great deal of
her spare time in hiking and pic
nicking. "I write when I feel
like it and when the mood strikes
me." she said. "It requires but
very little effort. I am very fond
of literature, music and art." Mrs.'
Hall is prominent in the activities
of Rose City Park, where she
lives at 507 East Forty-ninth
street North. '
to stop the practice will now cease. Af
ter the latest vote showed 39 votes in
favor of printing a memorial in full,
with only 14 against. Senator Smoot,
who has been the most ardent" advocate
of a restriction to the practice, saldt
"I want to give notice to the chair
man of the committee on printing that
hereafter I shall not object to requests
to print in the Record.. Let us notify
the country that the Congressional
Record is open to exploit the views of
anyone upon any question.''
The particular memorial upon which
this vote was taken was one from offi
cers of the National Livestock Associa
tion commending the report of the
Federal Trade Commission on the pack
ing industry. The vote of 119 to 14 was
not an exact Indication of the general
policy of the Senate upon the question
of printing petitions and memorials In
the Record, for the communication of
the National Livestock Association was
upon a subject that la receiving con
siderable public attention and, there
fore, was of more publio interest than
most of the petitions which Senators
ask to have printed In full.
Prompt Action Urged.
The memorial commended the "fear
less, constructive and convincing sum
mary of the report of the commission
on the meat packing Industry" and
urged "the prompt and favorable con
sideration by Congress of the remedies
proposed by the Federal Trade Com
mission."
Senator Smoot was chairman of the
printing committee when the Repub
licans were in control. According to his
statement he has Riven up the fight.
Senator Smoot's objection in this case
was not because of the particular sub
ject matter of the memorial. He has
been objecting to all requests to print
in full petitions or memorials from
other than State Legislatures or other
state authorities and Senator Fletcher,
Democratic chairman of the printing
committee, has followed his example.
While most public discussion has been
against the policy of printing large
numbers of petitions and memorials in
the Congressional Record, the discus
sion on the floor of the Senate shows
that there are two sides to the question.
Argument of Economy. Ont.
Against the practice of liberal pub
lication is the argument of economy,
condensation of the Record and main
tenance of the dignity of what is sup
posed to be a record of the proceedings
of Congress. In favor of the practice.
It is said that the right to petition and
memorialize Congress ts guaranteed by
the Constitution and that petitions that,
are merely received and referred to a
committee and pigeonholed cannot be
effective. Also it is asserted that when
people take the trouble to get up a
petition they usually have a subject
matter worthy of being brought lo the
attention of members of Congress and
that In order to make the matter avail
able it must be published in the Record,
where it can be found when wanted.
The strongest argument advanced
lately Is that under thy espionage act
and the dolicy of the Administration in
exercising control over the press, the
floor of the Senate Is the only place
where absolute free speech Is left, and
the Congressional Record is the only
publication where an American citizen
can be sure of getting a hearing.
Every time the executive depart
ments tighten the restrictions upon the
press the Senate tends to look with
more favor upon giving the public ac
cess to the Record.
