Jivered Tuesday evening by Thomas
: fa Burke at a dinner of the members
Iof the men's organizations of several
east side Presbyterian churches at the
.Central Presbyterian church. By way
; Illustration he developed his theme
? in terms of the recent Mexican de
velopments. His address is in part as
follows: "
- "A striking example' of the pernl
' clous fiction I mean, recently appeared
in a Mexican newspaper. It was an-
ii ou need that the states of Texas and
New Mexico had surrendered to Villa;
that he was pushing north with his
victorious army, and that the presi
dent of the United States and his fam
) ily were fleeing to Canada. It was
published for home consumption, of
course, as is generally the case with
""pernicious fiction.
1t appeared immediately after the
midnight assassination of men, women
imnd children In Columbus, N. M,, by
- V 11,1a and his murderous band of out-
laws. Its obvious purpose was to
b arouse enthusiasm, encourage enmity,
9 and secure aid among the poor, ignor-
j ant peons of that wretched Country in
t behalf of that notorious bandit and
t hl followers. Evidently it was writ-
- ten In anticipation that the United
: States would seek Just retribution for
the outrage committed. Its publlca-
ii tion was worse than outrage itself,!
t In that it lacked courage.
"This Mexvlcan sample seemed gro-
a tesque and amusing from .this dis- .
j.tance, and the newspapers on this side
- or tne mo uranae naa great run wun
r It. The news associations carried it
- through their Innumerable channels.
At the same time many newspapers ail !
over the United States were circulat- J
"ilng, and continue to circulate, sensa-'
- tional stuff emanating from some In- 1
interested source, differing from this
-only in degree. It is less rank be-
cause it fs made to fit the credulity of
r a more enlightened people. Pernicious
I fiction must not be too absurd to
serve Its. purpose among ; those for
whom it Is intended. The. element of
probability must be preserved In order
to make it effective. Even at vthat,
where the people are So dependent on
fe the' press for Information, the oppor-'
fitunity to scatter poison through that
E medium is almost without limit.".'
I could follow along many lines the
E current pernicious fiction that Is fed
m to us dally In the seductive form of
. news, - but since I have mentioned
. Mexico I wish to continue with it and
the. pernicious fiction it is supplying
f to the press on both sides of the inter
im' national boundary.
" Clamors for War rrequeat.
l& . "Certain newspapers have been
e clamoring for two years or more for 4--
a war with Mexico. They want an
army sent In there at any cost, to pro
tect American interests and beat the
natives Into peaceful submission. In
season and out, they have swelled
every, clash between the factions down
there Into conflicts of international
significance, and lampooned this, coun
try for not marching half a million or
more American boys into Mexico to
subdue and settle it, or take it over.
"Other newspapers have had their
motives traced to Wall street whose
coffers yawn for the millions that
would flow into them if Mexico could
be exploited with safety. Safety to
themselves,'! mean not to the brave
American boys who .would fjxst have

The Columbia Interstate Bridge

Two human rosebuds of Portland,

the 1916 slogan "For You a Rose In

from Portland to Savannah, Georgia.
They leave tomorrow.
The two little girls, daughters of
Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Cordson, of the
Wellesley court apartments, are going
to make the trip to Savannah alone to
spend the summer vacation with their

The girls have taken part in the
annual children's parade, the opening
day feature of the Rose Festival. Un
able to march with their playmates

to help make the festivak?a success.

paving. No steps are to be taken
toward the pavement of the roadway,
however, until It is definitely deter
mined whether the street car company
is to seek a franchise to operate
Across the bridge.
Paving the approaches will cost ap
proximately $40,000, and according to
Enginer John L. Harrington, there is
plenty of money, in the bridge fund
available for this purpose. The road
way will be paved Its entire width
of 38 feet.
Bates Per Passenger Pour Cents.
The commission decided also, that
inasmuch as the Portland Railway.
Light & Power company would pay
hone of the original cost of the pave
ment, the rate for passengers in cars
across the bridge should be four cents.
It was originally proposed, under a
plan to have the company pay the
cost of pavement, to charge at the
rate of three cents per passenger for
those carried in the street cars.
The motion to fix the rate of car
passengers at 4 cents makes no men
tion of street cars, however, but says
that the rate shall be four cents per
passenger of common carriers operat
ing on regular 12 hour a day schedules
where not less than hourly service is
maintained. The rate for those riding
across the bridge on horseback or
other animals was fixed at five cents,
and for those riding in machines not
maintaining a regular schedule the
rate Is to be five, cents.
At the beginning" of the meeting two
plans for handling year service across
the bridge were discussed. One was
to grant a five year franchise to thd

five year franchise was discarded.

"Thus, in regard to Mexico, perni
cious fiction has gone out through
avenues of news. Its purpose has been
to inflame the public mind and stimu
late a war craze on both sides of the
line that would make peace no longer
possible.
"Along this line we arrive at the
outrage at Columbus, which in no
sense was an act of the Mexican gov
ernment. On the contrary it was per
petrated by a band of Mexican out
laws which the acting government of
Mexico was trying to suppress. The
de facto head of the Mexican govern
ment Immediately expressed to this
couqtry his deprecation of the trag
edy, and asserted his intention of put
ting forth every means within his
power in running them to earth.
Jingoes See Their Opportunity.
"Naturally this country sprang from
the shock into action and it would
probably have gone to any extent
necessary to bring the perpetrators of
that crime to justice. From obscure
positions heroic shouts went up from
the jingoes in the belief that the psy
chological moment had come to rush
this country into war.
"To avoid even the appearance of
an act of war, however, and to the
surprise and" consternation of the jin
goes, the regular and approved way
of sending an armed force across the
border after Villa, was adopted by
this government Permission was of
ficially asked of the acting govern
ment of Mexico. The reply granting
the request was cordial, and the only
condition attending it was that the
same privilege should be given the
Mexicans to cross the boundary line
Into this country in pursuit of out
laws. This condition was not only
reasonable but wise, if the good faith
of both countries was to be taken seri
ously In their mutual desire' to rid
! their common frontier of bandits. It
: could not easily toe done otherwise, and
yet this reciprocal request on the part
of Mexico, which, of course, was im
mediately conceded by this, country,
was seized upon by the Jingoes and
their outcries against it were raised
even in congress.
"But the government, holding firm
ly to the line or international law,
moved with calm and resistless forct
through the clamor, and with all pos
sible haste sent the border contingent
of the army flying into Mexico to co
operate harmoniously with the author
ities there in ' rounding up Villa and
his murderous band. - .
i "Immediately, and in spite of this
t there went up cries of our invasion of
Mexico. News of "sniping American
soldiers by the hostile inhabitants of
the country through which they were
I passing, aroused indignation every'
where, and congressional oracles pre
dicted that a vast- Mexican army would
rise up around- villa and make war In
evi table. .

fiction, both in. and out of congress.
