Dr, F, B, Short of Penney Corporation Addresses Kiwanis Club That the greatest need in the country today is tha of religious tolerance, with the rifiht of every man to chose the denomination he desires as long as it is decent, was the message brought to Salem Ki- wanians by Dr. F. B. Short, edu cational and religious director for the J. C. Penney stores, at the Tuesday luncheon of the organiza tion. Dr. Short selected as his keynote the motto of the Kiwanis club. "We Build." "Character building is the greatest need in the I'nited States and if the nations of Europe were as anxious to possess national character as they are to take ad Vantage of one another, affairs abroad would be settled in a very short time," Dr. Short declared. "If America had become interested in the development of a national character eight or 10 years ago there would not be such a smell of oil today. Give more thought to the quality of character and not so much to party affiliations. As a nation we have been guilty of bad nationalism in recent j-ears." Through the lack of character people have become so damnable that they have sought to blacken and besmirch the character of Warren G. Harding, Dr. Short said, in' paying tribute to the mem ory of- the -late president. -.The HYAT Mil RELIGION SESSION BEHIND LENROOT erts and Poinerene. the povern ment's special counsel, have been trivrn unlimited authority to deal with the situation as they .c Jit. peace on earth policy of Woodrow Wilson was discredited by politi cians and sent him down to an untimely end. It is the efforts to bring out the old skeletons in the heat of political contests that cause much of the trouble, he said. "Every man should have a clean opportunity and not be hounded by politic:) I puppets." Dr. Short continued. I do not know which is the best church in Salem, but the one that does the most good is the best, regardless of its denomination. There can be no creed, race, cult or clan when hu man needs are to be considered," the speaker said in closing. "We should pledge ourselves to insist that those who hold public office should regard ii as a trust and if this trust he betrayed they should he thrice damned."

Dll SUIT IS LOST By HUGHES Apostolic Faith Not Required to Pay Damages for Alienation In his suit for damages against Marion county. John A. Gearin, who owns a farm along the Wil lamette river, lost out in the su preme court yesterday, the opin ion, written by Justice Hand, af firming Judge Percy 11. Kelly of tho circuit court, who dismissed the case on a general demurrer. Gearin alleged that when logs jammed against a bridge during an unusual period of high water, the county released them so they float ed across his land, carrying away some buildings and also that the logs remained on his land as the water subsided.
