so TUESDAY. MAY 6. "1919. ,5 THE , OREGON DAILY, . JOURNAL ATTACK ON WILSON BY FOREIGNER HAS F AROUSED RENDS Mrs.. James Christensen, Prom inent Texas Club Woman Now of Portland, Answers Critics. PLENTY OF ROOM OUTSIDE No Place in This Country for Those Who Are Dissatisfied With American Government. Much inrensed over what sh declares Is an unseemly and untimely attack on fret-Went Wilson fromone who should not be so d"eply concerned with Ameri can politics as seems Dr. Arthur Walwyn Kvans, nephew of the English premier. I.lcyd George. Mrs. James Christensen. prominent Texas club woman, who Is making her home in Portland, scores Dr. Kvans in a statement to The Journal. "I have read many criticisms on Mr. Wilson from all sorts of people, dis irruntled politicians, all-wise senator, camouflage! Americans, and even Bol shevik! agitators, and have tried to pos pet s my soul in patience," said Mrs. 'hristensen. "but when it comes to. an i-lucted lOngliBhman having the' ef frontery to publicly disparage the efforts of Mr. Wilson and Ins great work for humanity over there patience ceases lo U a virtue. "i wonder who gave Dr. Kvans the right to voice the opinion of the Ameri can people? I am not the nephew of any premtnent man. only an American mcther. who gladly gave her only son vo the service of his country, but I feel that jerfcap my opinion might be worth as miirh.M any younff Englishman's opin ion. "I.-deny most emphatically the asser tion that the American people as a whole ar not standing by the president, and I luve no reason to believe that he has lost the support of either England or France, Jf-Mr. Wilson were the selfish individ ual that Dr. Kvans describes, he would : noz at this time be on the other side fating the most gigantic task ever un dertaken by any mortal man. trying to bring order out of chaos, making a su preme effort to establish the permanent peace of the entire world. "The League of Nations as conceived by Mr. Wilson may be only a straw, as Dr. Evans . claims, but the fiber from which it was constructed is so firm and resilient that it will ultimately serve as a foundation to uphold the peace of the world. "Mr Wilson has never professed per fection, but why go about discussing Ma mistakes at this critical moment? What shall be said of those who not ' only refuse to help, but insist on getting In the way and trying to hinder? "The great menace to the Bafety and peace of the world is the spirit of greed and' selfishness, showing itself in every rart. of the globe. Our own country could not expect to entirely escape its sin ister influence. There is Just one rem edy, and that is for every citizen of the United States to become so thoroughly Americanized that adverse criticism of our government will not be tolerated, either in public or private places. The war may be ended In a way, but the in fluence that brought It about is still working over time. There is no room in this country for those who are dissatis fied with .this form of government, but the world is a big place and there is .plenty of room on the outside for peo ple who are looking for trouble." Australia Prepares To Build Tip Trade With Pacific Coast - "Australian firms are going to make a campaign for 'the establishment of commercial relations with the Pacific coast In a few months," said Albert Goldie, commercial representative from Sydney, Australia, who spoke at the Portland Chamber of Commerce at the members forum Monday noon. . "Wars shifted the commerce of the world .first from the Persian gulf to the Mediterranean and then to the Atlantic ocean and now the greatest war of all : has shifted the trade of the world to the Pacific ocean," continued Mr. Goldie, "and now is the time for the countries on either, side of the Pacific to capital ize on this circumstance." : "Wool is our greatest export and Ore gon is best suited to take this raw ma terial and use it in their plants." Mr. Goldie said that he had commissions from the Los Angeles Chamber of Com merce and other ports of the Pacific coast and urged that Portland get ready, to take part In this trade.
