THE SUNDAY OREGONIAJT, PORTLAND, JULY 23. 1932 11 ran AD 0 CHIEF TALK S. M. Vauclain Makes Plea for U.S. Aid .Abroad.. - "1 MESSAGE IS OPTIMISTIC Bead of Baldwin Works As serts Business Conditions Are Improving Rapidly. Another chapter is his gospel of prosperity was sent out broadcast from the Hawley radio station in Irvington Friday night by S. M. Vauclain, president of the Baldwin Locomotive works. Mr. Vauclain is making his mission on his western trip the dispelling of business gloom and as a novelty made a radio speech that was listened to by radio fans in several states. His talk by radio was intended particularly for members of the Btate Editorial association in ses sion at Corvallis, but through some unknown cause did not reach them. In it Mr. Vauclain urged that the United States should co-operate in fostering the business stability of other nations. He . predicted the early end of the present railroad strike and renewed his assertions that financial and commercial con ditions are rapidly improving. At the radio station Mr. Vauclain was the guest of W. P. Hawley and his son, W. P. Hawley Jr. Fol lowing Is the text of his address: "The foundation of all successful business is confidence. We must as Americans have confidence in the business integrity of men of other nationality, men of other races and color. Our obligation is to so mam fest our confidence in these peoples that we will win to ourselves their confidence, and. may I say. their af' fection. All business outside the United States cannot proceed unless the energy of those who reside and do business in the United States shall rally to their support. "The foreign people of all lan guages, of all colors, and, may I say, of all religions, are In distress a distress caused by the ravages of war, depleted treasuries, dissi pated fortunes and a withering de struction of their towns, cities, their transportation facilities, as well as their agriculture. These people are making a grand fight for the future and need help; help not only to re cover their, financial status, but to prevent the pall of poverty destroy ing their self-respect. ."It is, therefore, necessary that we study to help them, to work and to earn for themselves future hai piness and prosperity. Those coun tries which have not been engaged in war have been indirectly at fected. They suffer from a depre ciated currency, a lack of trade due to the loss ol European markets for much of their pcoducts. They also need our money, our manufactures, and, above all, our confidence. "My experience during the past three and one-half years has con vinced me that the only nation in the world today that is truly pros' perous Is our own beloved United States of America, and we must share this prosperity with the less fortunate. By so doing the bread We may today cast on the waters will be returned to us or our chil dren a thousandfold. "And now about our own business affairs: The prosperity special has safely crossed the continent, from ocean to ocean. Hundreds of thou sands, yes, even millions, of our citizens, both old and young, have seen it, have felt it, and know that It is no fairy tale. The whole world not merely the United States, is aware that our railways are in ex cellent shape, capable of supporting this ponderous burden. - Theyx also know that American labor has pro duced the finest locomotives ever constructed. They know that the American railway employe is as re liable as the sun, and that any prop erty entrusted to his care becomes a sacred trust. His reliability is es tablished beyond question and can not be impugned or in any way modified, even by the difficulties of the hour. k "Who are the real business pro moters? The working men, and they are also the mainstay and backbone of this government. We must not worry about coal strikes, or the strikes o; the railway em ployes. These are only trifles when the magnitude of the country is con sidered. Who should worry after having gone through the struggles of the late war? Who was afraid then? Every American citizen, of any race, creed or social status. stood stalwart and determined by the flag of his country. Money was spent like water, sacrifices beyond number and measure made by those employed at home, to say nothing of the millions of breasts that were bared to the bullets of the enemy abroad. "Never fear; all the difficulties of the present are mere mosquito bites compared with the world war. We have our country, we have our liberty and the same common people who won the great war will never permit ought but lawful procedure in our pursuit of health, wealth and happiness, insisting that liberty shall always be with us, and shall be regulated by law, the will pf the majority. "We are confronted today with a serious question of authority namely, shall we submit to the au thority of an assortment of so-called labor leaders, or shall we obey the mandate of the duly authorized, au thority of our government? "The struggle is now on, and feel quite confident that a careful review of the question received a the hands of the workingmen will bring about in the near future a re turn to the occupations recently de eerted, a manifestation, of loyalty t their occupation, a feeling of con fidence in their employers a result that will insure happiness at home and respect from their fellow, citi zens. I am in strict accord with the wise utterance of Abraham Lin coin, that there must be a lot of good in the common people or th Lord would have not made so many of them. , "This country belongs to its peo ples and they know it, and we can i'VDencl upcn them to act wisely, therefore, don't worry. Prosperity Is with us, and by your efforts will remain with us. This is the question inces santly asked by visitors from far and near at Portland's auto camp. It seems that many visitors are con vinced the fair is coining, if one may judge from the. number who have decided to make their homes here. The question pops up apropos of anything, but one camper, speaking of the diminutive size of the camp, suggested that to accommodate the world's fair visitors a great space would be necessary. .. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Cobb of Spo kane, on the first leg of a three months' jourpey through the west, will visit points in California and Texas and the 'Yellowstone park. They expect to return only as far as Portland, where Mr. Cobb intends to go into the hotel business. On July 29, last year, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Tuckett 'left their home at Burl,ey, Idaho, on a tour which will continue indefinitely until Mrs. Tuckett's health improves. Mr. and Mrs. Tuckett wintered at Hood River last year and this year, after leisurely tour of California and Arizona, probably will winter in Florida, , ' From Penticton. B. C, on the shores of Lake Okanogan, come Mr. and Mrs. W. Maddin and family and Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Long and family.

It is situated in the fruit belt, on the shores of beautiful Oka nogan lake, where there is a tine camp ground and an extensive bath ing beach. . - At Seattle, according to Dr. J. T. Newbrough of Pullman, Wash., the various clubs of the city take weekly shifts, turn and turn about, in entertaining visitors at the auto camp. Dr.. Newbrough is accom panied on the trip by his wife and daughter and Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Blonker of Humboldt, la. After an absence of 27 years Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Cornell of Chico, CaL, returned to Eugene, their one-time home, to find that city and all Ore gon changed almost beyond recog nition.

' ' Tract of About 1700 Acres Part of Proposal to Establish Re treat in This State. Portland's and Oregon's opportun ity to be selected as the site of the large children's home and school to be erected some place in the United States by the Brotherhood of Amer ican Yeomen was discovered yester day noon at a, Chamber of Commerce luncheon attended by representa tives of 35 civic organizations. That this section of the Pacific coast, with its splendid climatic conditions, richness of soil and pure water sup ply has a fighting chance to get the institution was brought out at the meeting and the active support of every agency was pledged for that purpose. - A. N. Farmer, secretary of the children's home building committee for the Yeomen, who is making a tour of the country looking for a site of from 1000 to 1700 acres of farm land for the institution stated the plans of his organization. He was preceded in hi3 address by Mayor Baker, who pointed out the superior climatic and healthful con ditions of this country which won for Portland the location of one of the children's hospitals to be estab lished In the United States by the Shriners. 'If. after viewing the many out standing features 'of Portland and Oregon, you locate your children's home elsewhere, your conscience forever will hurt you," the mayor said to Mr. Farmer. The home will ' differ from any Institution now existing. A fund of $5,000,000 from special endowments is available and beginning last Sep tember a levy of 10 cents a month 6as been made on every Yeoman to ward the fund. There are 300,0-00 member of the organiza'tlon in America and 4000 in Oregon. H01EH GETS NEW TITLE SERVICES IX HISTORICAL RE SEARCH RECOGNIZED. TEMPERATURE ONLY 72 Portland Has Its Coolest Day Since June 15. Portlanders- were content to seek the sunny sides of the streets yes terday when the thermometer reg istered the coolest day that has been on the books since June 15. The mercury barely stretched to the 72 degree mark, and It haft"ta climb from a low minimum of 49 degrees at 6 A. M. This Is the lowest mini mum seen since the' 46 degrees which was registered more than a month ago. Weather conditions varied little from those of Friday. The baro metric pressure changed only a hun dredth of a degree and the humidity was not different. Weatherman Wells said that it has been a month since Portland has bad a measurable precip'tation of rain, june ?i was tne oat or tne last real rainfall, which was not of any importance. Three-hundredths of an inch fell onthat day. Previous to that' there had been no showerB since June 9. During the three days, June 7, 8, 9 there was .11 inch on rain. Taking this into account, there has not been sufficient wet ness about these parts not even enough moisture to settle the dust for 43 days. Agricultural College Department Gets Valuable Contribu tions From Citizens. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, July 22. (Special.) John B. Horner, who as head of the department of history has for several years performed the duty of director of Oregon historical re search, now has the title of director of Oregon historical research" given by the board of regents in recogni tion of his services. The action of the board of regents follows the action of the Oregon legislature, which by joint resolu tion February 25, 1919, unanimously commended "Prof. John B. Horner. BARITONE TOjGO ABROAD Erwyn Mutch Leaves Tonight for Tour of Trance and Italy. Erwyn Mutch, operatic baritone, who for the past two years has won many laurels in local musical cir clesi will leave Portland tonight on the first stage of a tour of study which will take five years and which will take him to France and Italy. He will go" first to New York City, where he will complete course of study with Oscar Seagle, famous baritone and teacher, with whom he studied before coming to Portland, and whom he also assisted in tutilage. Early in October Mr, Mutch will sail for Paris, where h will work with Jean de Reszke, supposedly the world's greatest teacher of voice and at one time one of the great tenors. This.work will be limited entirely to voice cultivation. From Paris Mr. Mutch will go to Milan, Italy, to coach on operatic roles, previous to making his debut in opera. His sojourns in the two cities, he said, would probably keep him abroad for five years. Practice of , Traffic Policemen Acting as Jurist in Cases of , Violations Condemned. Creation- of a second municipal judgeship to help handle the ever increasing grist pf cases that come into the municipal court each day will be provided for in an ordinance which Mayor Baker will present to the city council in the near future. Should the council approve the mayor's plar and behind the may or's suggestion is a raft of statistics to show that It is not humanly pos sible for one judge to handle the cases under - police court jurisdic tion! the present system of han dling minor traffic violations will be transferred from the 'traffic de partment to the court itself. . Remedial Steps Necessary. Even If the council should disap prove of the plan of another pol'ce judge Mayor Baker will work out some plan- to correct the present evil or-permltting a police officer to serve as accuser, prosecutor and judge in the handling of traffic vi olations. -. t V . This condition in reality caused the mayor to give his attention to the need of relief in the municipal court. Violators of traffic laws are now taken before an officer in the traffic division and there, in many cases, caused to deposit a small sum . that is designated as "ball money. As a matter or fact, this bail ' is a fine, although at present there is no legislation authorizing the collection of fines for violations of municipal ordinances except by the police judge. ' Judge Kkwall Overburdened.. Judge Ekwall is not able to han dle the increasing work of the po lice department without une aid of someone, and this is especially true when a Jury case comes into the municipal court. "It is' false economy for the city to attempt to operate the .police court in the same manner that pre vailed 20 years ago,' said Mayor Baker. "Another police judge would result in a division of the work, bring all cases into the jurisdiction of a court, bring more equity to the persons who are required to appear before the court and, finally, add to the receipts of the court.'' The proposal for the creation of another police judgeship was pre sented to the voters several years ago but was disapproved. City of ficials attributed this action on the part of the voters to a lack of un derstanding of the congestion that prevails in the police court. Council Has Authority. City Attorney Grant has informed the mayor that the council has full authority to create the position of an additional municipal judgeship. Mayor Baker explained that he had made full investigation of the plan, now in vogue of a police of ficer handling minor traffic viola tions and was convinced that not only was this plan illegal, but very poor practice.
