SCHOOLBOYS SOUGHT -.Ij- High school boys are to be inlvted to conferences of the Methodist chnrch in an effort to induce them to : hear the call to the ministry. The shortage Of pastors has become so acute that 'the board' of - bishops last year delegated a bishop to investigate. . The report of this bishop, - Theodore Henderson of Detroit, Mich., was being widely discussed today, following his remarks v at Thursday's session. He cited1 the small salaries matched against the high . cost of living as the ; chief reason that young men seek ; employ ment outside the . pulpit. Bishop Henderson was appointed at the last meeting of the board to visit the conferences of the various bishops and find men for the ministry. He re ported the problems he met A ' committee ' of seven bishops was appointed to bring in a report on the accomplishments of the centenary move ment before the session adjourns. .

Olcott welcomed the heads of Methodism to the state, paying high tribute to the work of the pioneer Methodist preachers and especially to Jason Lee. He said the "rigorous teach ing of children in Methodist families has paid large dividends." He referred to Willamette university as the "cradle of learning in the Northwest," and in vited the bishops to visit Salem and view the many landmarks which -Methodism has in and about the capital. r Speaking from the standpoint of a layman. Mayor Baker requested the board to give careful consideration to the juvenile problem. He recited several instances where boys of 11 to 17 years of age had been caught robbing. He also hinted that good church members could not "go to Church on Sunday and patronise bootleggers on Monday." BISHOPS WELCOMED The mayor welcomed the -distinguished guests to the city. Dr. Joshua Stansfleld, pastor of the entertaining church, welcomed the bishops on behalf of the clergy of this area, and Robert A. Booth on . behalf of the laymen. Booth expressed a hope that the bishops would give a message before they left that would help lift the world out of its selfish state and help it to become a more royal brotherhood. A glowing tribute was also paid to the late Bishop Matthew Simpson Hughes by Governor Olcott Following the addresses of welcome Bishop Edwin H, Hughes of Boston, the bishop farthest removed from this area. and a brother of the late Bishop Matt Hughes, gave the response. The rostrum from which he spoke was also the last Oregon pulpit which his brother occu pied. Bishop Hughes agreed that Ore gon has a fine Methodist history, but literally "stole" the glory. - stating that these men all came from New England. After , giving bis impression of the grandeur of this western country he said, closing: "What a tragedy it will be if Oregon cannot raise men that will match her mountains." Bishop William F.

GASOLINE IS CUT 2 CENTSINPORTLAND (ConUnoad From Pae One) duction of considerable size would be the result j Officials of the company were un willing to make an estimate on the amount of reduction per 1000 feet I But if the cut is to be based on pre vious calculations made by the public service commission, the benefit from the aggregate reduction of 45 cents per barrel in the cost of oil would be about 10 cents per 1000 feet ! The gas company now has on hand sufficient oil to last till June 1, Lalng stated, and this supply was purchased at 13.55 per barrel. The . reduction an nounced today will bring the price down to 12.10 per -barrel. All California j oil companies are increasing their stocks, Lalng stated, and the cost of produc tion is steadily declining. Saving- to the gas company by. the new. oil price- would aggregate $300,000 annually, and, according to the i agree ment entered - into by -the company and the public service commission, this sav ing would be spread over the gas rate schedule for the benefit, of the consumer. on oil and the reduction of 20 cents a barrel In marine carrying, charges, an nounced by the- Standard Oil Company about a week ago.

Still further re ductions In the price of gas to patrons o( the Portland Gas & Coke company are promised by the public service commis sion in a statement Issued this morning hy Chairman Fred TA. Williams, based upon another announced reduction of 25 cents per , barrel in the price of crude Oil. :'.')-. This last reduction will be considered in connection with the reduction of 20 cents per barrrel in the prise of oil an nounced a week ago, in determining tne extent of the reduction in the price of gas to the consumer, the statement sets out "The commission has just been ad vised of a further reduction in oil prices to the Portland Gas & Coke company of 25 cents per barrel," the statement of the commission said. "This will require further Investigation and readjustment of the present figures and calculations of the commission begun immediately after the announcement of the 20 cent reduction a week ago. : "It Is our information that the com pany fortunately did not purchase a cargo of oil at the preceding quotation and, therefore, we are of the opinion that the rates hereinafter to be fixed can equitably take into consideration i the total of the- two reductions, namely, 45 cents per barret However, we cannot make an exact and definite statement until we have completed the Invest! g: tlons which we are now pursuing, nor Is it possible to fix at this time the ef fectlve date: Nevertheless, the patrons can rest assured that they will get the full benefit of every cent of reduction on, the price of oil. properly distributed among all classes. , "A substantial reduction will be made effective in ample time to take advan tage of the lower cost of oil so that patrons Willi have the benefit of cheaper oil until the present supply is ex hausted." - IN ALBERS CASE Washington, May 13. (WASHING TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL) Senator McNary has outlined the course he expects to pursue In ask ing the United States supreme court to reinstate the case of Henry Albers on' Its docket . w'1: -:-U He will present a motion on behalf of the Oregon Bar association that It be made a party ar amicus curies, and if - that be i granted he will move that the attorney ... general's confession of error be. set aside and the, case rein stated for argument on appeal. . This motion, it is expected; will be presented in open court on May XI. sup ported by a brief to be filed with- the court. The motion will be based on the claim that the department of Justice should not itself assume to pass judgment upon the law, but should let the case take its course through the supreme .court Oregon City's Tax On Outside; Delivery Trucks Is Resented Convinced that business men of the state are being discriminated against in Oregon City- through the passage re cently of an ordinance demanding a $10 monthly license fee from trucks making delivery-in thai place, a committee of Portland business men left at noon to day to confer upon the possibility of changing the measure. - On April 29 the city council of Oregon City adopted an ordinance fixing the tax upon trucks from outside places making deliveries in that place. - The purpose of the ordinance was to protect local busi ness from outside competition, according to. those who introduced the measure, Thursday a driver- tor the Pacific Coast Biscuit company was arrested at. Oregon City while delivery was being made. .This was the first intimation Portland business men had that the ordi nance was to be strictly enforced, Through the Chamber of Commerce this morning a committee of manufac turers, wholesalers and jobbers was gathered together to go to Oregon City and discuss the measure with the busi ness men.. It is pointed out that the measure Is discriminatory in that trucks from Van couver. Wash., or other points outside the state are not forced to pay this fee because they are engaged in Interstate business. While-the measure may protect Ore gon City business men from outside competition in some lines of Industry, they will suffer from the tax in other lines. If trucks are forced to pay the 110 license fee upon deliveries, ; it is pointed out by Portland business men that the consumer of Oregon City will have to absorb that difference and that In the end the consumer will suffer. The committee from Portland was headed by P. Hetherton, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. . Woman Editor Goes to Poland Seattle. Wash., May IS. (I. N. S.)
