Mahood Directs
Appeal To Young
People Of Church
Iju night at the First Methodic
church Ir. Mahood dealt with the
utmiuemcnt question making an espe
cial appeal to the young people, who
attend in large numbers. He used as
historic "Cutting the Anchors," using
the story of Paul's shipwreck to Illus
trate it. It was another of his many
gripping messnges and was a direct tip
peal to the young people to cut loose
from the things which were hindering
la their Christian experience and the
attainment of the highest and best
things In life. He enumerated variou?
thtnga which served as anchors to hold
pesple back among them being bvII as
aeowtions, the modern theater, the
aadern dance and the modern card
trasses, Ills attack on these forms of
worldly amusements was not sensa
tional In any sense hut was based
mainly upon the fact that Indulgence
In them always hindered and often
completely destroyed one's Christian
experience. He declared that the mod
era dance was the most fruitful nourc
af social evil in America today. He
said the high school dance was the
worst of all. In Minneapolis whor
dsnolng was permitted in the 'high
schools the results upon the morals of
the young people was deplorable am'
he appealed to the Christian people o.
Bxltm to create enough sentiment tr
prevent Its permliutlon In the high
school here. He said that only nn ou'
and out Christian who cut loose from
all wordllness, can exert a powerful
influence on others tor good as well
as attain the highest life for himself
Tomorrow morning Dr.. Mahood wil
speak ut both Jason Leo Memorial am
I.mlie M. E. churches and at nigh
n III address a union meeting at Kirs
M. H. church on the subject, "The Un
pirdonable Sin."

OREGONIAN SUED
FOU DMGES BY
LEROYt KEELEY
(Continued from page one)
because of what might be regarded as
an attempt to intimate that Keeley's
reported "red" activities were Inspir
ed by a desire to promote communist
Ideas In order to destroy the state in
dustrial accident commission. This the
Portland attorney objects to as being
without foundation of fact. One por
tion of this paragraph in referring to
Keeley, uses this phraseology, "they
(the.state Industrial accident commis
sion) blocked his efforts to secure a
major part of the compensation which
had been awarded to a widow be
cause of the death of her husband."
Keeley states emphatically that" this!
statement is a gross untruth in that!
he made no effort to secure other
than the fee arranged for; 40 per
cent In case of the payment of a lump,
sum. This, he points out is 10 peri
cent less than the rate commonly ap
plicable in Oregon for actions of this j
nature. Keeley also claims that this;
paragraph confuses his action for the
widow's compensation from the pri
vate concern, with the unexpected
award to the widow made by the ac
cident commission. The alleged
libelous paragraph is given:
"Motive Is Shown"
"Keeley 1b the attorney who gained
considerable notoriety last summer
when he filed charges against the
state industrial accident commission.
Investigation showed his complaint
against the commission was due prin
cipally to the fact that they blocked
his efforts to secure a major part of
the compensation which had) been
awarded to a widow because of the
death of her husband. Keeley is a
delegate to the central labor council
from a federal employes' union."
As fl. final and conclusive argument
that the Oregonlan has damaged hlin
to the extent of $100,000, Keeley
claims that proof of the attempt to
mix his name In purported "red" ac
tivities is found in the sixth paragraph
of the article, which follows:
"So bitter was the debate on .the
two questions that the meeting con
tinued until well past midnight, when
it broke up on the verge of a riot.
Although It was the regular night to
nominate officers of the council for
the ensuing year, this action could not
be taken because of the "red" con
trol of the meeting. Nominations will
be made next Thursday night."

"The consequence is that the Am

Sims.
