Undecided on Call
A To Salem Charge
No decision had been reached today
by the Rev. Ward Willis Long, pastor
of Forbes Presbyterian church, as to his
aocgptance of the call to the pastorate
of the First Tresbyterian church of
iJalem.
"The call was given to me Monday
night over the long distance telephone,"
aid the minister, "and came as
..a complete surprise. I have "toot
-, sought the Salem pastorate or any other,
being thoroughly satisfied with my pres
rnt work at the Forbes Presbyterian
Lhurch. I am not prepared at the pres
' exit time to make any announcement,
; but I do feel as- thotigh the church at
' Salem has done me a singular honor.
: The Salem field is one of the most im-
portant future, fields in the Presbyterian
church."
The Forbes church has 250 members
and the Salem church 600. The Rev. Mr.
Long came to Portland in June,' 1J19,
in response to a call from the Forbes
church, and found the church suffering
from the effects of being without a pas
tor during the war. He has built up the
membership, enlarged Ore Bible school
and conducted , excellent mission study
courses In his church. He has also
s been sought as a speaker at many public
gatherings and was an Instructor this
year in the Portland Training school for
church workers. He is also scheduled
R3 an Instructor In the spring course.
The- Rev. Mr. Long graduated from
- the Princeton seminary in the spring
- of 1918 and finished, his master's work
tne same year. He accepted the position
- of assistant pastor at the First Presby
terian church, Akron. Ohio, and served
. there until he came to Portland. The
call from Salem, if accepted, dates from
May I, 1921.

lets in that business section when the
water was low. Health department in
spectors had not discovered the condi
tions prior to his visit Monday evening,
