Boasted CrriHsatioB. ''
I'he "glory of -war 'was denied in
Portland churches and at a mass
meeting yesterday,
The city's prayer for peace included
condemnation of conflict.
But there was voiced In 'nearly every
plea for peace, whether aermea or
prayer, praise of the wise course taken
by President Wilson in keeping this
country from war, and i " presenting
to the world the spectacle of lta great
est nation united In suppllcatlonor
the end of the European struggle that
threatens to destroy millions of lives
and billions of dollars In property.
War Is not glorious but terrible and
destructive, declared W. T. Foster,
vice president of the Oregon Peace
society, at the mass meeting, yesterday
afternoon in the former Baker theatre.
Every American citizen should make
himself center of, an anti-war influ
ence that -shall make decisively for
peace, advised Colonel C. E. S. Wood,
also a speaker at the mass meeting.
- Wax Bouse Savagery.
War, explained these speakers, each
in, hla own way. rouses savagery In
the hearts of men. makes a mockery of
boasted civilization, and armament in
stead of preventing war suggests
imSh"
ana maices the conflict more
when it comes.
The mass meeting was held under
the auspices of the Portland Rotary '
club and Nelson G. Pike of this club
introduced the speakers. . The music
was furnished by the police band, and
there was not a silent voice when all
were called upon to sing the national
anthem.
At the First Congregational church.
Rev. Luther R. Dyott told his audience
they should thank God for President
Wilson. His proclamation establishing
a day of prayer for peace was God's
thought through the mind of the na
tion's chief executive, said Dr. Dyott,
kov. John H. Boyd, at . the First
Presbyterian church, was inclined to '
criticize iwhat he understood to be the
policy of the school board and super
intendent in forbidding mention of
war in the schools. He said that tn
the schools the thought of war should
be made go horrible to children that
all over the country the coming gener
ation would be unalterably opposed to
war.
"Armament is failure," declared
Rev. A. A. Morrison, rector of Trinity
Episcopal church. "The world la learn
ing a lesson by passing through its
worst war experience, and the lesson
is that civilization menaced by war
will not advance."

that the Germans, as the war office
expressed it. Had "smothered" the

forts, on the city's extreme southern
line of defenses.
In Itself the loss was not considered
very serious, but the belief waa grow
ing that Antwerp would fall unless
the allies raised its siege soon.
French and: British troops were re
ported in force near Ostend, and It
was thought a , flanking operation
would be undertaken against the Ger
mans with a view not only of saving
Antwerp, but 'to drive the kaiser's
soldiers out of Brussels.

Commodity Rata on Apples
Dropped, Flat Ton Rate of
25 Cents Adopted
RATE UPON HOPS STANDS
Anton e Taller Submits Xowest Bid fox
Proposed Warehouse on Mu
nicipal Bock Bo. 1.
- Simplification of the ordinance reg
ulating wharfage .and storage rules
and rates for municipal docks was ef
fectedthis morning by the commission
of public docks by a complete revision
of the ordinance. ,
The principal change in the ordi
nance is the elimination of all the par
agraphs of the original ordinance
which outlined the duties of the
wharfinger. Such paragraphs were
stricken out because it was felt they
were superfluous in an ordinance
which affected directly only shippers
and transportation concerna.
' The old commodity rate of 1 cent a
box for apples was eliminated, and In
the future the flat ton rate of 25 cents
per ton will apply to fruit. A box of
apples is estimated to average about
60 pounds, and at 2000 pounds to the
ton tha rate was 40 cents.
The commission had a prolonged dis
cussion on what would be a proper
rate for hops, but finally left the old
rate of 5 cents stand, as It was said
there would be few water shipments of
baled hops by way of the Panama ca
nal, hop shippers having discovered
that the journey through the tropic
seas caused the hops to discolor. At
least this was the case when the hops
were transshipped across the isthmus,
and any shipments made this fall, it Is
said, will be of an experimental na
ture to find out just what really Is the
effect of the Central American climate.
Storage rates were changed to make
a graduated scale for upper dock, lower
dock and storage on filled ground.
Antone Teller, who submitted the
lowest bid for the pTOjtosed warehouse
on Municipal dock No. 1, will be award
ed the contract as soon as the city at
torney passes on the validity of the
bond issue which is to care for . the
building expense of the structure.
Checks were ordered returned to the
second and third lowest bidders by the
commission.
Permission was granted the Ukase
Investment company, which Is building
a, dock between Clay and . Market
streets, to postpone building a fire
wall Until such time as the commission
saw fit to order one constructed. -
II ' a
Play Adds $1000 to
German Aid Fund
Performance of "The Barbarians" Wan
Executed In Presence of a Packed
House Oerman Say Celebrated.
With the presentation of "The Bar
barians" at the German House last
night by -the German-speaking people
of Portland, nearly $1000 was added
to the Red Cross fund of the Staats-
verbund Oregon. The play was suc
cessful, the acting good, the charac
ters being well portrayed, and the re
sult was a packed house.'
Miss TilUe Fleischauer took the
leading part as Cleraence, a daughter
of the Marquis of Therigny. The
story dealt with the Franco-PruBsian
campaign of 1870-71. The scene was
in the home of the marquis, there
being present a group of German of
ficers and men which the fortune of
battle had brought to the castle.
Hatred in the heart of tho daughter
of the marquis changed to love, and
the end came as such things usually
do. Martin Dudel staged the affair.
In addition to the play, the Germans
celebrated Gorman day, In commemo
ration of the landing of the first Ger
man immigrants in America. Rev. R,
D. Salsmann gave the opening talk of
tho evening.
