BREWERS' AME! IS NDMENT DISCUSSED BEFOR E BUSINESS MEN S CLUB Colonel Wood Favors Meas ure and Walter H, Evans and A L Veazie Oppose It, TEMPERANCE AGREED ON psaxsrs Blsstrss on rpsltim That KMnn Bsfor Trttn Would BUmulats lienor Biutow "To beer or not to beer" wss vigor ously debated before the Progressive Business Men's club yesterday. Colonel C. E. B. Wood supporting the so-called brewers' amendment and District At torney Walter H. Evans and A. I Veaile opposing It. Colonel Wood Mid he favored true temperance, was op posed to the saloon, and ho named Den mark as one of the temperate coun tries where beer consumption Is not limited. - A. L.. Veazie produced, first, a full Tage newspaper clipping which he de clared contained tho paid advertise ment arguments of :ion-prohlbltlon days for the rotention of the saloon with the names of Colonel Wood and others supporting the brewers' amend ment signed to It. He produced next the brewers' year "book and from It read the statement that Denmark is the greatest per capita consumer of ar dent liquor. Considers Saloon a Hulsanoe. "I consider the saloon a nuisance as lrad as. a oner tariory ia icmucm-c district." rebutted Colonel Wood, "but you will find my name on anything that Is against tho restriction of hu man liberty. As for Denmark, I men tioned It last in .my reference and it has had the present condition long enough to have full effect." Colonel Wood, in openlns his ad- vflresH. declared, "Oregon is densely ig norant of true tenrjoranee reform. That is what the measure permitting tl.e manufacture of beer containing not More than 4 per cent of beer is in- .... w a r , . f i wtn n i r.knn r nnnn nnni or. under absolute prohibition the stronger, less bulky liquor will be brought Into the state and will make us a state or whiskey drinkers. ' Wot a Brewers' Agent. "I am not a brewers' agent trying to build up the brewers' business, thereby to drag people down to hell. Bottle houses are not what the meas ure means and if I thought that .under this measure equivalents for saloons should be established, 1 and those who are associated with me would lead the effort for its repeal.' Colonel Wood said he ma Res no se- .' cret that he 1b attorney for the Welnhard interests and that this fact makes no ainerence in nis personal views. District Attorney Evans said it wai unfortunate Colonel Wood would not be given the "interpretation of the measure he has framed for others who i Interpret' It, saying that it will do away with the present restrictions governing the use of liquor, that it will result in establishing brewers' agents or "bottle houses" all over the state and throughout Portland, that 'no penalties are attached to the meas ure and that manufacturers will not . be subject to control in the amount they may themselves deliver by means . Other than the common carriers. A. Ij. Veazie said the view expressed by the district attorney is the view . taken by lawyers with whom he had 'conferred, Including some who sup port the measure.

CHS ARE FALSE SAYSCALDMUH ANSWER TO MAYOR Chairman of Civil Service Board Discusses Reasons Why He Was Removed, CHALLENGE NOW ISSUED B Auouon Kla Willingness to De sate Kertts of the Case With W. Albee Statement X Made. Charging Mayor Albee with maMng false accusations against him and re moving him because he refused to be intimidated or coerced Into agreeing with the mayor, George W. Caldwell, chairman of the municipal civil service board, in a lengthy statement, answers Mayor Albee's letter removing aim from the board. Mr. Caldwell, in the statement to the mayor, declares that the letter of, re moval "has all the earmarks of hav ing been written by some of your ad visers around the city hall, who have Just as much use for civil service as you have." "Civil service to you is a fine tlhng, so long as the board agrees with yor and refuses to give a hearing to or reinstate an employe dismissed by you," says Caldwell. He challenges the mayor to a public discussion of Che reasons for his removal and of his work. - Bays XaatanaUoma TTatrna, Mr. Caldwell tells tho mayor that his letter ot dismissal , is "nothing other than a few Insinuations," and saya further: "If you have any ideas on civil service reform I do not. know what they are. as you have never given an intelligent statement as to what they are other than to say that I should agree with you. Nor have you made any recommendations with re spect to the improvement or advance ment of civil service" Other extract from Mr. Caldwell's letter are: "The fact Is, your insinuations and your alleged reasons, if they can b called such, for my attempted removal from the civil service board, are untrue In every particular, and wet well known by you to be untrue when you signed the letter.' "When I refused to be dictated to by you as to what my decision or action should be I became a very un fit person to be a member of the board." "On one occasion you told Mr. Dleck that he need not worry about obeying the order of the civil service board, as you had disobeyed the order and would continue to . do so." "You made a false accusation against me in order to accomplish your un lawful purpose." Hunter Cass Mentioned. -Mr. Caldwell declares that other reasons actuating his dismissal were his refusal to sustain the dismissal of Police Officer Hunter, whose reinstate ment has been urged by an Investi gating body of business men; his in sistence upon an examination for sec- city commissioners live up to civil j service rules and " regulations. "Mayor Albee la told that his declara tion that-he-will not reinstate Officers Crowe or Hunter under any circum stances Is "sufficient reason for you forthwith to resign your office, and I am sure , that 85 per cent of the people of Portland would applaud your act in so doing." The mayor is also told that "it seems difficult tor you to understand that the civjl service board is independent of any control from the council or the mayor," aires Parting Shot. "When views upon civil service such a yours have. been forgotten and are no longer tolerated, then civil service in the city ot Portland will be elevated to the high plane on which it "belongs," Is a parting shot given the mayor. Mayor Albee is not to reply to the statements of George W. Caldwell nor is be commenting on the charges mad by Mr. Caldwell. "I have nothing to say about It," sail the mayor this morning. "The let ter speaks for Itself and I hope every one reads it. While I shall probably acknowledge receipt of Mr. Caldwell's letter. I shall make no answer to his statements."
