Secretary MacLean made no reference to it in bis ad dress, his name also will appear on the ballot in the coming primaries as a candidate for delegate at large from Oregon to the Republican na tional convention in Chicago. Mr. MacLean is an ardent advo- cate of the participation by the United States in the league of na- 1 . ... i . tions, and as a candidate for dele gate seeks the support of Republi cans who; wish to see their party declare for active participation in the league with such reservations to the covenant as may seem wise or necessary to a Republican national administration.

MARSHALL ON AMERICANISM Sub President Airs Views on Causes of Present Unrest; Blames Profiteer NEW YORK. April 20 Vice Pres ident Marshall wa; applauded by members of the Associated Press at their annual meeting today when he advocated - freedom of speech. . and press as guaranteed by the constitu tion, but favored "soaking it to the fellow who causes trouble in the American republic by what he says." He drew a distinction as to the rights of free speech between those who were born in the country and others. Native born, he said, had the right to advocate alteration of the government by constitutional means to Socialism . or monarchy, but those who sought a haven in this country had no right to propose a change in the system of govern ment. The vice president was the chief speaker at the luncheon of the mem bers in connection with the annual meeting, at which the retiring five directors were re-elected by accla mation and fouT advisory boards and auditing and nominating com mittees were chosen. After deprecating the great amount of publicity to crime and suggesting that newspapers pour oil on the troubled waters of unrest by speaking of the fine tbines In Amer ican life. Mr. Marshall told the meeting what he thought would be real news, namely . "a clar'on call from every newspaper in America for men to stand for Justice, tor free dom, for right, for the maintenance of the old constitution and the old principles upon which the republic was founded." There are a great many people. he continued, "who think we are going back to where we were before Aueust 1. 1914. We are not going back there, aentlemen. I would to God It were possible to back to 1840 But we live in the year of grace 1920 and we are not going back " And you know and I know whether we "close our eyes to it or not. that ten million men did not azonlze and suffer and dte upon the far-flung lines of Flanders and France that the world might be what the world was.

It is known the army has never asked for anything from the public Tdr which it did not give fully 100 per ent in return. I Now tbiH working charitable or-' ganization Is a!out to call on all the good people of Salem and Marion county to help it secure a home for the needy boys who may come un- Uer Its rare. This home Is now sur rounded l.y 10 arn-s of land. It is situated near Yamhill. The soil is productive and tho young chargs will b taught the principles of prac tical farming by actually growing the crops on this acreage under the instruction of a real farmer. Ural Quota I Fix The campaign in Salem and Mar ion county will be unique in that it will be carried out by young buMneis men and ex-service men. Instead of asking the heads of firms to give their time to the work each will be asked to contribute-the services of one salesman or other employe. It will take some money to get possession of the real property so the Salvation Army may start this good work for needy boys. It has been figured out just howf much each county should contribute to make this project possible. The quota for Salem and Marlon county has been fixed at $13,300. An organization, to collect this amount from the people of this city nd county, has been perfected and th campaign lor funds will start on May J. The county chairman is A. C. Bohrnstedt and.L. J.

It is tte plan of the Management of this campaign to have the need of this home presented to the people by public rpeakers. Such speakers will be selected by a committee composed of James EWin. Luther J. Chapln and T. E. McCroskey. . ....i ... the opportunities and the privileges the Associated Press has. it will as sume some of the responsibilities for bringing peace and quietude, and good order kt least to America II not the world." The .vie:' president counselled against being discouraged at high prices. He recalled the days after the Civil war when, he said, flour old for $20 a barrel, quinine for 220 an ounce and calico for 80 cents a yard. "Let us. get down from the theo ry." he said, "that we must either nuke all the, money that we can to day for tomorrow we die, or we must spend all tho money we have today for fear there will be none tomor row. Let n understand that Amer ican prosperity cannot continue if the farms and factories of this country are to produce less and peo ple are to Increase and consume more. And what is the use of talk ing about icongress. or courts, or any other human instrumentality setting aside the plain laws of na ture!" Talk With Mars May be Postponed for a Time OMAHA.
