Shntts, ' publisher of the Miami
Herald.
While awaiting a response to its
urgent cry for help, the city, with
the aid of federal, state and other
agencies, went doggedly ahead
with its relief work. Thousands
of doctors, nurses, soldiers, sail
ors, marines and other relief
workers labored to care for the in
jured and the homeless and to re
cover the dead still imprisoned in
many of the 5,000 homes that
were wrecked and in the debris
littered waters of Biscayne t bay.
The bodies are slowly being re
covered.. Three more were taken
to the morgue today, bringing the
accounted for dead in. Miami alone
to 97. Hundreds and hundreds
were injured, many seriously, and
they are being cared for In regu
lar or emergency hospitals and re
lief stations
After five days of practical iso
lation, Miami got into intermit
tent communication with the
world today through the Associ
ated Press leased wire. Over that
wire went an appeal for funds,
and over it, too, was told for the
first time some of the stirring
scenes in those long hours when
the storm lashed the southeastern
Florida coast.
Ambulances are still dashing
about, their sirens blowing full
blast. They go almost unnoticed,
for they are no longer a curiosity.
They signify, though, that another
mangled body has been removed
from a wrecked-building.
The last five days of death, de
struction and terror have been
days of rumors, too. Wild reports
fly with almost ' incredible swift
ness.

of the storm well. All night Sat
urday a small group of newspa
per men in the tower worked fev

Miamians of the approaching hur
ricane. The building was plunged
into darkness before the tele
phones failed.
Then the storm raged in full
fury. The dredge Savanah, anch
ored in the harbor, played a search
light on the hundreds of boats
which floundered in the seas and
finally were driven on the beach.
Silently, the newspaper men kept
their vigil in. the tower and watch

"Label Democrat on -Ticket
Does Not Signify Any
Principle," Plea
LIQUOR BRAND IS ASKED
Following Stanfield Precedent.
Asks "Opioel to Prohibition"
Be Tacked' After His
Name
The word "democrat" is a-misnomer
as it relates to the candi
dacy of George Putnam, Salem
newspaper publisher, who at the
primary election was nominated
by his Bourbon constituents for
the,, office of state senator for
Marion county.
Mr. Putnam, in a letter sent to
the secretary of state yesterday,
indicated that if Robert N. Stan-
field, independent candidate lor
United States senator, was allow
ed to have a slogan printed after
his name on the official ballot, he
should be granted the same priv
ilege.
"When I filed my acceptance oi
the democratic nomination , for
state senator," read Mr. Putnam's
letter, "I requested a slogan to
follow my name on the ballot, but
was informed by you that it was
not permissable. In view of the
supreme court ruling in the Stan
field case, I renew my request
that the slogan: 'opposed to pro
hibition' be placed on the ballot
after my name.
"You will readily admit that the
label democrat after a name does
not in Oregon signify any principle
and that the.voters have no way of
finding out what the candidate
stands for, any more than as if
the word 'independent was writ
ten after, his name.
"With Governor Pierce at the
head of the ticket labeled demo
crat it would be a rational sup
position to imagine that the word
democrat stood for prohibition,
which is contrary to my ideals of
democracy and therefore conveys
a false idea to the voters.
"It would seem -that ia -my case
words 'opposed to prohibition' ex
press a political principle quite as
definitely as the word democrat,
and its use would inform the vot
ers in a general way upon what
particular political principle the
candidate claims their suffrage."
It was said that this is the fir3t
time that a candidate nominate J
at a primary election and subject
to the provisions of the primary
law, has raised the question fo
having a slogan printed after hi
name on the official ballot. Here
tofore all party nominees result
ing from the primary election
have been limited to parly desig
nation on the ballot at the Novem
ber election. In the case of Stan
field he was nominated by an as
sembly of voters and not at the
primary election.
The secretary of state early lo
day will refer Mr. Putnam's letter
to the attorney general for a legal
opinion. In event the attorney

"The policy .of the Kimball
School of Theology will . be con

least," it was stated yesterday af
ternoon by Dr. John Martin Canse
the institution's new president
who arrived late yesterday, from
Centralia, Wash., to begin his
work of directing the college.
"The work is all new to, me and
I haven't been able yet to make

I doubt if I can make any state

interests in view.
"It would seem that Kimball
college can easily become a strong
institute of its character, being the
only theological institution of the
Methodist church west of Chicago
The policy will be to build it up
to the point where It can conduct
a strong, standard campaign of
theology. I will be glad to -put my
life into this task, although it is
not one I had particularly sought.
"I have received most hearty
assurances of cooperation from
both ministers and laymen in the
work to be undertaken. I also
like the hearty good will and re
sponse I have met in three con
ferences with former students and
others connected with the school.
"There will be a meeting of the
board of trustees some time in Oc
tober to determine the immediate
policy of the college, and until
then I will not know exactly the
line of work to be undertaken.
T expect to teach some classes
later, although my time will be
taken up mostly in administrative
and field work. During the first
semester I will devote very little
time to teaching, but will spend
most of it in getting acquainted."
Dr. Canse will go to Corvallis
to attend the Methodist church
conference being held there this
week. He is scheduled to give an
address there Friday afternoon at
2 o'clock and to discuss the work
of the college at an educational
banquet Saturday evening.
Dr. Canse was elected for the
post as president of Kimball col

not been a seeker for the position.

REV. GUY-FITCH PHELPS
ALLOWED TO WITHDRAW
DECISION ENDS STORMY SES
SION OP METHODISTS
Rev. S. W. Hall, Sllvcrton, lion

Salem, Reports
COUVALLIS, Or.. Sept. 22.
(AP) Rev. Guy Fitch Phelps, by
a vote or the 74th session or the
Oregon annual conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church in ex
ecutive meeting today, was per
mitted to withdraw from the con
ference by surrender of his min
isterial credeutials.
This culminates a. matter which
has been simmering within the
conference since Rev. Mr. Phelps
sent an open letter to Dr. William
C. Sheparti, bishop of the Portland
area, and member of the confer
once, charging ministers or tne
Methodist Episcopal 'church with
being infidels.
Charges were' filed against Rev.
Mr. Phelps by-Rev; Walton Skip-
worth for "high imprudence and
un-ministerial conduct." The con
ference voted not to entertain
these charges.
The decision to allow Rev. Mr.
Phelps to withdraw, which was
his own request, came at the end
of two executive meetings, closed
to all but members of the confer
ence, and presided over by Bishop
Adna W. Leonard. A direct bal-
ot was taken at the end of the
first session to determine whether
charges should be sustained.
The formal release of Rev. Joh&
H. Coleman,, ex-minister of the
conference; in the Salem district,
was announced at today's session.
Rev. S. W. Hall. Silverton, was
re-elected secretary of the confer
ence. Kev. k. h. uotton oi AGiuy
will be one of his assistants. Due
o the transfer of Rev. Frank
James of Bend to another confer
ence, Kev. w. J. Morrow or uua-
mook was chosen etatician.
The year just passed has been
a good one, in the estimate of the
four district superintendents who
gave 'their report today. Dr. D.
H. .Leach reported for the Salem
district, which is entertaining the
conference this year in the new
Corvallis church.
A total of $62,000 in improve
ments has been, made in the Sa-
em district. Dr. Leech reported
He mentioned new ' churches ' in
Corvallis and West Salem, and
two new parsonages at Jason Lee,
in Salem and Independence.
