FIRE DRILLS IN" THEATRES
What Children .Can Do. Adults' Can Do,
v and Should, Ia Argued.
Portland, March . To the Editor of
The Journal. In the past two weeks
the citizens of Portland have had bought
home to them the need as well as the
results of organized fire drill in the pub
tic schools. First we had the Holladay
school fire,' where 600 or more little chil
dren were attending. I visited the build
ing last Saturday and in going over the
building it struck ma as very remark
able that a building Af that size and
construction could be emptied of all
the pupils and teachers in the remark
able time of 45 seconds, but the fact
remains they did and it was all due
to the fire drill, the work of our excel
lent fire marshal as well as the teachers.
I wonder how many fathers and moth
ers have been to eee the effects of the
fire and to sense the possibilities of
death that stared the youngsters in the
face as they marched from that burning
building.- Let them go up to the top
floor and view the debris as it lies
on the floor, in some places three and
four feet deep, and see the roof of the
building as it hangs down in the audi
torium, and they will realize just how
near those little folks were to almost
certain death. And they will also realize
the value, of organized fire drilL

fire came a fire at the Seilwood school.

or churchman. The laws of righteous
ness are the same for all men without
any special privileges, rebates or ex
cuses for any human being.
Mr. Hargreaves raises other issues of
the complex-inferior. The Old Testament
has a great deal to say about fools, and
Christ quotes the Diety as caUIne a man
a fool who was a millionaire here but a
bankrupt In eternity. The great teacher
sometime used language startling and
terrible. He treated the common every
day sinner with the greatest tenderness
and pity, but for the upholstered scribes
and Pharaaees, covered all over with
the mildew of fraud, hynocrisv and de
ceit, he had nothing but a divine thun
derbolt. For there ia no remedy for hy
pocrisy out a thunderbolt.
Today we are only plavlne at relhrion
ana naraiy playing in earnest. The
achievement of the kingdom of heaven
was tne core and center of the revolu
uonary teaching-of Jesus, but the pulpit
or ioaay nas almost completely aban
aoned this, its appointed task. There
is more religion in the Declaration of In
dependence than in all the creeds of
Christendom. There is more religion in
many of The Journal's editorials than In
most of the pulpit sermons.
The church and the nreachers instead
of controlling material civilisation are
controlled by it. - Twenty-eight years
ago a committee, of which I was chair
man, was appointed by the Dreachers
association of Portland to investigate
and report the ownership of the property
m town usea ior immorality and com'
mercial vice. It was shown from the
public records ajid by the.aid of the po-
uii "i os i or una property was
owned- by religious people who controlled
and financed the churches. When the
report, with the names, was read to
the preachers meeting one witness said
it was like calling the roll of the
churches. One, who said he would roast
out of his church any member owning
sucn property, sat tight and did nothinsr.
Anouier saia we were "monkeying with
the buzzsaw." Only one church took
action. One pastor who made the report
the subject of a sermon and called thines
by their right names was told the failure
or pew rents would now make his resig-1
nation aesiraDie, and it promptly fol-i
lowed. Mr. Himes, the historian, eager
for data, has this report now filed in
the archives of the Oregon Historical so
ciety. That the report is not antiquated
was shown a few years asro when a
business man. In an address to the Port
land Y. M. C. A., said that 95 per cent
of the property used for commercial' vice
in the city was owned by religious neo-
ple. The suggestion of Mr. Hargreaves
that I be a candidate for a professorship
of profanity in a dlvinits school when
the preachers are licensed to chew to
bacco and swear is Quite , Interesting.
Perhaps he can persuade the agricultu
ral college to give me, a it did one

John Phillips of Maryland, tho author
of a bill to tax wines and beer, aska:
Why not gather ia at least 1(00,000,009
a year by such taxes and save more than
enough to pay the soldiers bonus?'
Next come John Thomas Taylor, chair
man of the national legislative commit
tee of the American Legion, who is con
ducting th fight for the bonus, with
this report: The American Legion ha
no objection to any method that may be
proposed for raising the (bonus) rev
enue." This is an insult to the Amer
ican Legion. They deserve and should
have the bonus and it should nave been
paid to them long ago, but . to raise it
in the : way suggested by some of our
congressmen is a violation of constitu
tional law, and an effort to thwart the
Will of the people. However. I believe
with Mr. Taylor that the senate and
house committees are competent to find
ways to finance the bonus without re
sorting to crime. The only thing lacking
is a will to do it. However, if they are
so incompetent that they cannot find a
better way than to place a tax on .wines
and beer, they should immediately con
sult with E. A. Linscott of Pe Ell. Wash,
for the .better way. Maybe they have
already done so. At least he makes a
public suggestion, towit: "I suggest
better way than putting a tax on beer.
If we would take the money we foolish
ly pay a bunch of bootleggers to enforce
the prohibition law and pay the sol

A FOREIGNER'S CENSURE .
Torture of Harvey Church Used Against
America in All Lands.
Portland, March 7. To the Editor of
The Journal- I am a foreigner in this
country and have always heard that the
controlling elements are freedom and
justice for all ; so perhaps you might
understand my great horror when read
ing about the boy, Harvey Church, who
was to be hanged at Chicago, being
treated in such a barbarous manner by
the officials whose duty it is to uphold
the law of freedom and justice. The
law found this boy guilty of murder;
accordingly it found him having to for
feit his life in payment. . But is there
anywhere a law passed' whereby he can
be tortured to such an extent that even
the nations you call heathen and savage
would not permit such a thing? It is
a disgrace to your boasted civilization
and every man and woman in the United
States who does not rebel at such an
action is remiss. There should be such
an outcry at this miscarriage of justice
that those officials who permitted it or
were In any way connected with it,
should be dismissed at once. How can
a nation- which calls itself Christian and
pretends to follow the teachings of
Christ, who commanded that you "love
one another," allow such ani action?
Your boys fought for freedom ' and the
brotherhood of man, to free mankind
from tryranny, but I doubt if such an
action had ever been allowed in those
countries. It is time you Americans
awoke to the fact that you are not free
men and women but that you have in
power men who are not fit to be trusted
with the responsibilities of office. Do
you realize that such actions as these
are copied 1 in every paper under the
sun and used as an example of what
freedom and democracy do for your
citizens? Has the spirit of freedom and
justice fled? Are you so busy making
the dollar that you have no time to
