BILL UNJUST,
j Lutheran Synod Holds That It
T Is' Not for State to Say Where
I Child Shall Be Educated;
Increased Taxes Are Feared.
Salem,1 July 25. Opponents of- the
several measures initiated by petition
" for presentation to ' the - voters at the
-- general election in November, fcr'.the
most pa rt, have exercised their 5 op
portunity to file with the secretary of
state negative arguments for publica
tion in the voters pamphlet: The time
When these- arguments can be received
expires today. . i v '
That the proposed compulsory public
school education bill is unconstitutional
and if enacted into law would curtail
: . religious liberty and - work- an addi
tional tax burden, is the : argument
against that measure presented by the
Evangelical Lutheran Synod. . -ARGU3IEJCT
ADVANCED ' .
1 "Under the constitution of the Unit-
. ed States." the argument points out.
"you enjoy religious liberty.! That Is
the liberty to worship God according
to the dictates of your conscience, and
. to rear your child according to your
, religion. If you eee fit' to send - your
- child : to school id which the religion
: of your choice is taught, every ' day
of the week, and the whole training of
the child is permeated by .such re
ligion, the state, under the constitu
tion, ist not prohibit you from-do
ing so. , This bill, ' if enacted into a.
law, - would :-so : prohibit you and is
manifestly unconstitutional.' . ; .
CLAIM BIGHTS EXCEEDED
- The state,' the -- argument concedes,
,has a right to set & certain standard
of. education, to prescribe . a certain
course of studieB, one that-will quali
fy a child for intelligent citizenship.
"But where the child.' shall get this
education, in a free1 " land, ' euch ,as
ours," the statement adds, "It is not
for the state " to say.- If the parent
see fit to eend their children to schools
where these Just requirements of the
: state are met and the children get
,- a ..religious training also,-, the . state
must' not Interfere,". - ,

Supreme Court Affirms Decree
of Judge Bingham Sentenc
ing. Roseburg Dentist to Hang
for Murder of Dennis Russell
' Salflsti, Or- July. 25. -The shadow of
the. ttanrnun! . noose loonjed blacker
for pr. Richard M- Brumfield. former
Reseburg dentist and convicted mur
derer, today. . when . the - Oregon su
preme court affirmed the decree of
Judge George G. Bingham, sentencing
Brumfield to -die on the gallows. .
"There is no reversible error In the
record," the opinion, , written by Jus
tice McBride, pokJts out
, Brumf illd. once a meticulously, clad
member of Roseburg's moet fashionable
set, was, on August Si, 1920, indicted
for, the murder of Dennis Russell, a
hermit who lived' near Rosebursr. At
J a subsequent trial, held at Roseburg,
uio oenun . wno, tne - state charged,
had .butchered Russell - in an attempt
to collect ids own insurance, was found
guilty In the first degree and on Janu
ary i3, 1921, was sentenced to death.

at the Oregon penitentiary.
SBATS AUOWED '. -:
Attorneys for Brumfield; It was 'an
nounced here today, now have 20 days
In which to file a petition for;a; re
hearing of the case. The supreme court,
however, will adjourn August and It
was therefore believed that the petition
will not be given consideration before
September when the court again con
venes. Should , the petition be j denied
at that time Brumfield will be return
ed to Roseburg where he will be re
sentenced. .-
In his appeal the principal greund re
lied upon- by Brumfield had to do with
Judge Bingham's refusal to permit him
a requested change of venue. Objec

overruling of certain juror challenges
by the defendant, And its action in
overruling defendant's motion ta quash
the - indictment. r ,''.

Attached to the motion for - a venue
