SATURDAY, AUGUST PAMPHLET READY ! ' - ' " " FfiR niniiTMN w, .! a TO STATE VOTERS Salem, Aug:. 5. Secretary of State Sam Kozer has received from the press a neat little .volume which soon will be ready for distribution and which from the importance of its contents should vie with the season's "best sell er." bnt which won't. It Is the voters' pamphlet containing; the texts of the' seven initiative meas ures and the two amendments referred by the legislature and designed for the November ballot with affirmative and negative arguments on them. . According to present plans, court action is to be begun by opponents of the Salmon fishing and propagation amendment initiated by G. G. Green of West Linn, Or., in an effort t prevent the measure appearing on the ballot. As set forth in-, the negative argument placed in the pamphlet by Carl Shoemaker, master fish warden of Oregon, the primary purpose of the measure was to "hold up" the fishing industry. Accordingly the measure is to be attacked in the courts on this, ground and because the petition is lacking in the requisite number of valid signatures. A total of 13,312 signatures is re quired. Green's petition contained an excess of 51 names. He attempted to file 200 additional names subse quently to the initial filing, which was denied him. Cursory examination of the signatures, it is said, has revealed almost, enough to invalidate the peti tion. N'o affirmative argument for the measure appears in the pamphlet. Another interesting feature revealed by the pamphlet is that the only other measure the sponsors of which failed to support by an affirmative argument was the interest rate bill, initiated by John F. Albright of Oregon City, the good faith of which also has been at tacked. The compulsory education bill is supported by one affirmative argument and is opposed by seven negative ar guments. J. R. Hermann is on record with an affirmative argument in support of the single tax measure and there are no negative arguments on it in the pam phlet. The 19J25 exposition tax amend ment is accompanied by an affirmative argument, as is the income tax amend ment proposed by the State Taxpayers' league. Two negative arguments are on record against the proposed gradu ated income tax bill initiated by the state grange and one affirmative ar gument supporting it- The two referred amendments are local measures permitting Benton and Linn counties to pay outstanding war rants.

American Eelief Work Is Turned Over to Austrians (Special Table to The Journal and the Chicago (Daily News) (fopyrieht. 1022) Vienna, Aug. 5. After more than three years of relief work, in the course of which food and clothing val ued at $14,000,000 were imported into Austria and carefully distributed among the needy, the American relief administration has turned over most of Its work to the Austrians. The "or ganization will continue distribution to a small number of persons who are considered to be entitled' to temporary relief.

The commissioners, apparently, would fa vor such an investment from the money now in the sinking fund, but this they have no power to do under charter provisions. This situation was developed Fri day afternoon when at an adjourned council session the subject was dis cussed with Frank J. Streibig Jr. Streiblg's proposal was that the city only make a comparatively small in vestment in the certificates at this time, and that, if the plan proved satisfactory later it makes application for a more extensive issuance of these certificates. It was shown that the city has only about $30,000 in the general fund, and that provision has just been made for borrowing from local banks such money as may be needed for regular running expenses for the remainder of the fiscal year, up to $500,000. This is to cover the "dry" period before the last payment on taxes begins to come in. With such a situation, the plan of takirrg any money from the general fund for, refinancing the bond sinking fund was considered entirely impracti cable. The sentiment of the commissioners was that charter changes should be made so as to give power to use money in the sinking fund for this purpose, and it was advocated that the mat ter 1 e olaced before the charter revis ion commission, so as to have it in cluded in the proposed new charter, and also that a separate proposal covering the matter be placed before the voters at the next election, so that if the entire charter was turned down the voters might express themselves on this plan, as a separate proposition. AD CI.t'B WOULD HAVE CITY ACQUIRE EAST SIDE PARK WAT Acquirement by the cUy of the por tions of the center parkway in East 72d street, at Sandy boulevard, that are now held by private parties, was urged upon the city council Friday afternoon by Georgp .. Rauch, as spokesman for the Portland Advertis ing club and the. residents of the dis trict. Rauch pointed out that the Ad club had repainted the old pergola, had it repaired, and expended considerable money on the parkway ; that the citi zens adjacent had helped to clean it of stones, etc., but that water connec tion is imperative in order to keep the roses alive. He asked that water connections be made and that the cUy take steps to acquire the private hold ings' through buying in the tax title. The property is now delinquent for taxes to the amount fo $185. The mat ter was referred to Commissioners Pier and Bar.bur. s CHIEF TOrXO TO ATTESD SAX FRANCISCO COSTESTIOS Fire Chief Young will attend the international convention of fire chiefs to be held in San Francisco August 11 to 25.

Oil companies, timber mer chants and other business men in Am sterdam are busy trying to obtain con cessions in Russia or to re-establish, pre-war conditions. "We have re-established ourselves in Archangel," said one of the biggest Amsterdam lumbermen to the writer today. Before the war his company had. a branch office there and this has been reopened. , NEGOTIATED WITH SOVIET Some months before the conference at The Hague he entered into negoti ations with the soviet representatives in London with the result that he is the only timber merchant doing business in Russia. "I did not want to wait until oiir miraister of foreign affairs. Dr. Van Karnebeeke, should discover that it was wrong to refuse to deal with the Russians, for then it would have been toe late. Great Britain has acted wise ly and Belgium is beginning to under stand the necessity of abandoning its attitude of reserve towards the soviet government. Americans must hurry up or they will fall behind in the race for Russian trade. COMMERCE IS ASSISTED The Correspondent's informant was pleased at the way the bolshevist agents were conducting affairs. So far no obstacles had been placed in his way. The agreements had been ob served strictly, the representatives of his firm were comfortably, housed in Archangel and the soviet authorities were doing everything to assist com merce.

But since enemies have made this Christian ordinance a -pretext for assailing the CITIZENSHIP of Catholics, therefore the present candid, simple expo sition of the subject. - - L j " - Catholics ascribe a divine origin to this ordinance "or-sacrament. They believe that Christ is its authority, basing this assumption upon their view, of scripture and history' during 1900 years. . But as in previous articles,; so in this one, we prescind entirely from dogmatic discussion, limiting the subject to the possible effects of Confession upon the social integrity ami citizenship oi iVse who practice it. " Is it not true that the principle of , , St CONFESSION IS FOUNp EVERYWHERE ; in life? Does not the erring child confess to its parents?1 Does not the client confess to. his lawyer? Does not the patient confess his physical even spiritual ills to the physician? Is not everyone confess ing to someone all the time? ' What is more natural than this exchange of confidence? No one will deny this, because they cannot. More over in,this Christian ordinance or sacrament , , THE CONFESSOR has a three-fold office; spiritual judge,., Spiritual pilystcUn, . spiritual instructor. As spiritual judge, he passes upon the dispositions of the penitent with a view to assisting him. Is he really sorry for' his sins? Is he really resolved to avoid them for the future? Are his good reso lutions practical and sincere? If he has wronged his neighbor in his property or name, has he made the necessary restitution? i You say, cannot the penitent decide this for himself? In some cases perhaps, in most cases,' NO. For who is so unbiased towards himself' as to be a competent judge in his own case? The confessor is also : SPIRITUAL PHYSICIAN AND INSTRUCTOR i ' To suggest remedies for the future; to advise when one needs ad vice; to warn when one needs warning; reprove when one needs reproach all the time,, disinterestedly, impartially. .Wiio does not realize the supreme value of such judicious advice, warning, reproach, especially to the young? As a competent lawyer is trained to give expert legal advice; as a competent physician is trained to Impart expert medical knowledge; so. the competent clergyman or priest has been carefully trained to offetthe who come to ask it. Nor is the rare occasional unworthy administra tor of the "ministry of reconciliation," as St. Paul (2 Cor. 5-18) describes the office, an argument itself. 4 , THE CONFESSIONAL i is a double booth, in plain open view in the church. The priest Is seated in one booth, the penitent kneels in the other1 a WAlL is between them. The speaking is through a screened lattice.' As Catholic churches are always wide open to outsiders, anyone can make a personal inspection of the confessional at most any time. In the almost impossible supposition, that the confessor so much as spoke improperly there, the person addressed would le strictly bound in conscience to report him to the church authorities. Safeguards of every kind have been thrown around the institution, so that misuse is well nigh impossible. THE PROPOSITION THUS RESOLVES ITSELF: Persons who know all about a subject from personal experience are surely better judges than those outside whose impressions are derived from hatred-vendors, in whose personal equation, fairness and truth are unknown factors. - :'':V AN APPEAL TO NORMAL MINDS Of the 18,000,000 Catholics in the United -States, there are at least two million Catholic mothers. Excepting the converts, these have gone to confession from childhood, and do so still. Is anyone - so mentaly warped as to say that these two million American mothers comprising thousands of the very flower of our womanhood, would uphold an institution morally or spiritually harmful- even pernicious, as our haters say? Moreover, these. two million mothers train their daughters from tenderest age, to go. to confessfon monthly or weekly. Would they do' so if they did not-know its benefits from life-long personal experience? Would they do so, if there were anything radically wrong with this custom or practice? l Every normal jnind will answer emphatically NO. j "' . x . ! -H, , Moreover, there are about as many men as , women go. to con fession. These send or bring their wives, sons, daughters with them. They are doctors, lawyers, bankers, judges, tight-fisted professional men, hard-fisted business men, big-fisted policemen. Can any .sane person 'imagine these two mitljon men allowing their wives and chil dren to frequent a danger to sound sane morals?, The'truth Is that these parent who know just what Confession is. ARE MOST ANX IOUS TO HAVE THEIR CHILDREN, PRACTICE IT. While they do so, they feel that all is well; but if son or daughter begins to neglect this sacrament, they begin to worry and fear that all is not well;, else why should they avoid what these parents know to be -a powerful auxiliary to their moral and spiritual lifer , " , - . ANOTHER PERSONAL QUESTION If there were anything wrong about this Christian ordinance, .why do many of the Lutherans still practice it, as far as possible? - Why do many High Church Episcopalians urge it upon their members, Jattd use it wherever these can be persuaded? Why do theTpriests, the bishops, the pope himself go to confessions, just as do the laity? , In the foregoing, as heretofore, no attempt is made-to descend to the language-level of diabolical-sheets pr mouths of a certain type of haters. Our appeal is to sensible, fair-minded, moral Non-Catholic men and women. To these we say: Here, brethren, are the simple facts; read, weigh and judge them for yourselves.
