J. Hertdiiefcs1of The Statesman. PRINCIPAL NELSON TALKS PLAINLY (Continued from page 1) acknowledgment of their error. Xelson Speaks Plainly. "Frankly, Mr, F!-7.-3rty, what is the matter with Eugene? '..Why can't you come out in the open and tell us what we hare done? Your letter ot December 20 as signs no definite reason for break ins oft relations with us. You speak of waiting until true sports manship in all branches of athlet- ' . t-ii j furnishing music. under: the lead-t l c. De Rwauwea. out ao roi ., . ., point out any instance in which ershlp of Linn Hilt There was a Jitney stopper, with cakes, candy, coffee, hot hambur gers and wienerwnrsts, etc.. and a fish pond." The eats and dain ties were 'furnished .by the ladies of the 'club, and the receipts were about 160. "The ..officers elected : for the coming year were A. M. Chapman, president, re-elected; Mr. "Latour-elle,-vice-president,- and W, J. Trudgen, secretary. - There is a project under way to enlarge, the hall of the club.; for it is becoming too small for the crowds brought together-by the fine community spirit of that flourishing suburb of Salerno ' T The splendid 'Spirit of co-opera tion among the residents ot Salem j lleirhtn Is well worthv of.emula- there has been a . failure to dis play ture sportsmanship. oo re fer to the Clarion article, bnt you do not say that you object to it. You mention the disturbances in the street, but you do not mention whether you blame us or your own school. In fact, your whole letter does not contain a single definite reason why relations should bo broken off. Don't you owe it to yourself and to us to make a pos itive statement? As matters stand now,, you can hardly avoid giving the impression that your reason is one that you don't want made public. But this hole-and-corner diplomacy always reacts on those who practice it. Our attitude hero is that -we have nothing to con ceal; we invite the. lul lest, publi city, and if it turns out that our LADD & BUSH BANKERS Estabiaiied 18C3 -J s ; r : . - - . -f i General Banking Business Office Honrs from 10 a. m. to 3 p. m. It I i Oght Your Farm Buildings with the Fairbanlis Morse 4 pupils have done anything wrong, they can be trusted to. make it rifiht. It is a serious matter to set two bodies of pupils at enmity with each other; and just as far as possible It is our duty to kep them on a harmonious footing; and to break relations without giving us a chance to explain, is to a.Hsutue a heavier responsibility than 1 personally care to accept. Eugene Scheme J.eakcl "If anything went wrong on the occasion of the game, why was it not possible to file a complaint with us at once? Was there any reason to suppose that we would be deaf to an appeal for Justice? Of course there were some thvgS about the game that" we didn't like; bnt we saw no reason why we should therefore" make any complaint, and were perfectly will ing to give you another chance. But you seem to have made up your raind to condemn us un heard, and to keep the fact that you intended to break off rela tions from coming to our cars as long as possible although othrr parties seem to have known you were going ttt do it. "Now for the last time I invito you to state your grievance, and tell us w.hat is the real reason why you cannot looser continue ath let'c relations with us. If you re fuse to answer, or continue to take refuge fn silence, can you see any reason why I should not give the widest publicity to the whole affair, and make a statement of th facts in the hunds of . every school belonging .to the state as sociation? If thej idea is merely to gratify some fancied personal dislike of me by an attack on , the entire Salem high school, yon are welcome to. do so;but it can't be done by any 'star-chamber pro ceedings it must come out In the open an appear for wbat.it is. But why force matters to this last ex tremity? -Why noi decide that it is still possible for .the two schools to continue friends, and to join in nsing all your efforts in that di rection? It is worth doing, and you can conn t on my .hearty co operation toward that end. May I hope Tor the pleasure of an early reply? If your students have in the meantime replied to our letter, please consider all this unsaid." Keteon Means Uusinc.

Sal vador, and about $96 miles from Paitama. where it will meet the Atlantic fleet for maneuvers. The twtf battleship- divisions -with thir destroyer escorts, furnishing a smudgy smoke screen, separated a distance of 20;000 yards today and - engaged in plotting and tracking exercises. The Pacific air force arrived at the Gulf of Nicoya after a successful flight from La u ion, according to -radio messages picked up by the fleet. of thitt body, precipitated a sharp; discussion in the labor conference here today. Nevertheless, the com mittee's report was unanimously adopted. There was an equally animated discussion over the commission' report an the Argentine Federa tion of Labor's hostile attitude toward the Part-American Tedera tion. After several delegates had charged that the Tan-Americans never had been given a voice or a vote in the Amsterdam trade con ference. Samuel Gompers. the chairman, said he had nrged that the Pan-Americans be allowed to voice their opinions. His request, he added, had been denied by the convention, which said he spoke for American labor alone, and not for Latin-America. - "Therefore." Mr. Gompers de clared, "the American Federation of Labor has not decided whether to affiliate with the Amsterdam I ixinuiu. wmi nas reversed me inn- ncmenui principle upon wntcn the American Federation Is founded, namely, self-expression and self determination for every country. The American Federation of Labor .will d everything posible to guarantee to even thesmallest la bor movement In Pan-America the right of self-expression. " These remarks -evoked the first applausn of, the convention. Mr. Gompers conrlndetl his address with a plea for unity and organi zation "We must try to agre upon the fundamental principles of right. justice and freedom," he said. These last few words formed the basis for the. first verbal dem onstration by radicals One man who had been actire in distributing communist litera ture shouted denunciations upon congress for "denying freedom and when Mr. Gompers warned him to be silent he sat down, only to be succeeded by a companion. who was equally vituperative. Mr. Gompers grasped his cane nnd pounded vlgourously on the table, and threatened the immedi ate expulsion of the men from the room. The disturber sat down. and a moment later the meeting adjourned.
