VALERA MEETING,
As. a precautionary measure
only, police last night inter
cepted all persons carrying
flag-s of the "Irish republic"
into the auditorium. More than
a hundred flags were taken at
the door and will be returned
to their owners later.
This action was taken when
it became known that the audi
torium was generously sprinkled
with members of the American
Legion, who were ready to take
action should any occasion arise.
The flag1 owners, except in a
few minor instances, offered no
objections when the police took
the flags.
Officers of the American
Legion were stationed at the
front of the auditorium and in
the lobby, urging all ex-service
men not to etart trouble of any
kind.
HUN BOYS TAUGHT WAR
Young Children in School! Trained
to Use'Grenndes and Machine Guns.
BERLIN. (By the Associated Press.)
Charlottenburg scholars in the high
er schools are being trained for two
hours in the afternoon in the art of
using machine guns hand grenades
and rifles, according to a Charlotten
burg citixen who wjitee to the Peo
ples Gazette, the popular edition ot
the Tageblatt.
The writer declares that during the
past few weeks he has had repeated
opportunity to witness the training in
a military sense of children between
12 and IS years of age on a big field
jn Charlottenburg.
The training was carried out in the
same way as during the best days of
the imperial regime. The man in
charge was a lieutenant, and non
commissioned officers conducted the
training, with the use of all the mil
itary curse and command term used
in the old army.
The Peoples Gazette appeals to Min
ister of Education Haenisch, "who is
responsible for the uypbringing of
youth, to investigate and eliminate
what it calls a "scandalous situ
tion."
The independent socialist newspaper
Freihelt had a similar story of hand
grenade end machine-gun instruction
recently. Although it was printed con
spicuously, no attention was paid to
it by either the police or the ministry
of education. The Peoples Gazette
asks whether the authorities cannot
or will not answer.
GREAT FUTURE IS SEEN
HORTICrLTURAL OUTLOOK IX
iOREGOX IS PROMISING.
For two hours Eammon de Valera,
so-called "president of the Irish re
public," exhorted his hearers at the
auditorium last night to believe that
Ireland's cause is their own; that the
"little patch of green" is seeking only
that which the American colonies
sought when they first broke away
from Britain's domination ; that they
are entitled to self-determination.
The auditorium was crowded to its
limit as the Sinn Fein leader arose
and without any preliminaries plunged
into his text. There was a certain
earnestness about him which held an
appeal, and time after time he was
forced to pause as prolonged cheers
rang through the auditorium.
"What I seek in America is that the
Ln ited States recognize in Ireland's
case Ireland's right to national self
determination; that and nothing
more," was the outspoken preface to
his lengthy address.
"This principle of self-determination
was one of the openly stated ob
jects f,r which America entered the
war. It is at the basis of no less
than ten of President Wilson's 14
points. It was accepted by England
no less than by America.
10nfclandn Claim Denied.
"Even if England had any claim to
Ireland, having accepted America s
aid in the war on the basis of self
determination for all peoples, she
would now have no just cause of com
plaint if America demands that she
shall not be cheated out that for
wh ich she poured out her blood and
her treasure. But England has . no
claim to Ireland. She has never held
Ireland with the consent of the Irish
people, but always through the exer
cise of superior force."
"President Ue Valera was escorted
to the platform by a guard of three
American sailors and three American
soldiers, all in uniform. After a brisk
talk by Thomas Mannix, chairman of
the Portland reception committee, and
the introductory talk by P. H. D'Arcy
of Salem, Mr. De Valera arose and
stood facing the crowded auditorium.
For nearly two minutes the hall rang
with cheers of greeting.
As the cheering subsided, the speak
er began 'talking in the Gaelic tongue.
For a moment the crowd seemed to
wonder if the entire talk were to be
in Gaelic and relayed to them through
an interpreter. But the speaker soon
dispelled such fears.
Gaelic Jpeih Explained.
'Tn all my meetings in this country.
I begin my speech in this manner for
one reason alone." he told them. "I
want the people of America to under
stand that Ireland Is a separate na
tion with a separate language of its
own." His explanation was greeted
with cheers.
Only once did the speaker refer to
the incident of Friday when ex-service
men demanded the removal of the
"Irish republic" flag from the motor j
car which was used for the Irish
leader during his visit to Portland.
He said it was the first time that
such an incident occurred during his
entire speaking tour of the United
States.
That flag is the flag of the Irish
people, he emphasized. "If there is
to be any right or justice at all in
this world, this flag is the one which
the American people -and the Ameri
can government should recognize."
Launching into the body of his dis
course. Air. De Valera traced Ireland's
fight for self-determination from its
very inception, more than 760 years
ago, down until the present date when
the people of Ireland, by a three-to-one
vote, he said, had determined to
rule themselves through their own
Irish republic.
Ireland Crucial Teat.
"Ireland is the crucial test which
will show whether those who pro
fessed to desire a new world order, in
which government would be based on
the consent of the governed, were
sincere or not1 he continued.
"If justice be denied Ireland it is
clear that justice which plays no
favorites has not yet trrump"hed. and
that a common law which will respect
the rights of the weak no lesa than
those of the strong is as far from
being recognized now as it was be
fore or during the war.
"If right and liberty are to be dis
regarded by nations they will be die
regarded by individuals and groups of
individuals. If powerful states like
England may be as unjust as they
please, and if states like America are
prevented from doing that which they
consider just through fear of offend
ing powerful neighbors, there is an
end to all justice.
Resolutions Are Adopted.
Immediately after the close of the
address Chairman D'Arcy read a set
of resolutions which had been pre
pared. protsting against the adoption
of the League of Nations covenant
unless self-determination for Ireland
were first assured. These resolutions
were adopted as the crowd arosa from
ita seats and surged toward the exits.
Although those in charge of the
meeting assured Mayor Baker that
"The Star-Spangled Banner" would be
played and sung and that a tribute
to the American flag likewise would
be given, these two patriotic demon
strationa were nearly eliminated from
the programme. It was not until the
crowa was iuing irom tne auditorium
that the organist struck up the na-
-. tlonal anthem, and those who could
hear stopped and stood at attention
until tha last note died away. Mr.

OREGO.V AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, Nov. 15. (Special.)
A big future was predicted for the
horticultural industry in Oregon by
the thousands of visitors in Oregon
at the horticultural show held last
week in the men's gymnasium. Al
though the display covered almost tha
ntire floor it is expected that the
annual show, will become more impor
tant and comprehensive each year.
This was the first show held since
1916 because of war conditions.
The benefits desired by the students
from, this exhibition are considered
many. They are enabled to become
acquainted with the proper manner of
displaying fruits, " vegetables and
flowers for exhibit purposes, using
decorative schemes, suitable arrange-
rr.tnt, and placing exhibits as well as
the proper number of specimens for
cacti display.
Exhibits Are Studied.
They observe the best types of
horticultural products, since in addl
tlon to the college exhibits growers
from over the state sent fruit and
vegetable displays. They are enabled
to note varieties and their characters.
A judging contest was held
which the students judged by the
score card system. This is considered
of partiaular advantage to the stu
donts, since it fits them for this work
when they have left college. The
several onion, celery and cabbage
entries were found . to have only
few points between them and much
care was necessary in placing them.
Vegetable Shonins Excellent.
The vegetable exhibits included the
famous Troutdale celery, as well as
some from naar Salem, where there is
the largest acreage in the state.
Onions from the well-known onion -raising
counties of Washington and
Marion . were in evidence. Cabbage
from the Oswego district and some
attractive lettuce from the John K.o
berg farm in Hood River were much
admired.
In the fruit display trays of apples
predominated. These were arranged
by colors and presented a riot of vivid
hues. Different parts of the state
were represented with individual ex
hibits, many of these coming from
former students and friends of the
college. One feature of the fruit dis
play was the exhibits from other
states, which included many sub-
tropicalfruits.
Commercial Firms Represented,
The horticultural products exhibi
was one of the four divisions of the
show. It included canned goods, dried
fruits, vegetables, jams, butters and
jellies. Many commercial canners and
packers were represented in this uis
pity. Among these were the Phe:
company of Salem, Dickinson & Co.
Oswego, Salem Fruit Union, Starr
Products company, Weinhard com
pany, Kniifht Packing company
Portland, California Raisin Growers'
association and E. Clemens Hors
company of San Francisco, Cal.
The department of floral cu'ture
had chargf arranging the exhibit
and also made a large display of
chrysanthemums. These were shown
in vases and pots, which were set
a formal garden. The walks of the
garden were outlined with moss and
the beds themselves were made
pine needles.
