THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON
WILL HL PHY
AT AGE OF 63
A varied career of political,
business and professional ven
tures, a portion of which wore
successful came to an ond todny
with the death of William Ells
worth Purdy, for the last decade
a familiar personage in Salem.
Mr. Purdy was 03 years old.
Mr. Purdy 'a last political ven
ture was as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for con
gress for the first district in 1924
when ho was beaten by H. L.
Clark, also of Salem. Ono of his
successful political campaigns
was ns a candidate for delegate
to the democratic national con
vention at San Francisco in 1920,
he being one of those elected out
of a largo field of candidates.
Frequent defeats did not dis
courage Mr. purdy in politics, nor
in litigation, and often ho was an
aspirant for high stato or con
gressional offices, Including tho
office of govorhor for which he
was a candidate in at least one
democratic primary, white ho al
ways had cases pending in the
courts.
For several years of his life Mr.
Purdy was an evangelist. Ho al
so had been admitted to the prac
tice of law. He engaged in num
erous business occupations, in
cluding roal estate, and, until a
few years ago, the operation of n
bath house in the Oregon building
in Salem;
As a delegate to tho nations,!
democratic convention in San
Francisco Mr. Purdy was the only
mc inner troni Oregon to vote for
the Bryan prohibition amendment
He had the endorsement of a !
large number of Oregon demo- i
crats and republicans for a posi
tion on the United States ship
ping board after the resignation
of George E. Chamberlain,
At tho last two sessions of the
Oregon legislature Purdy had in
troduced, through Senator La Fol
lett, a bill that would have re
quired the posting of tho Lord's
prayer in public places and in in
dustrial plants. He got the en
dorsement of Protestant and Cath
olic clergymen to the measure,
but It failed to pass,
Mr. Purfly was born at West
moreland, N". Y February. 27,
1862. He came to Oregon 24 years
ago and had lived In this state
continuously since that time. For
the past 15 years he had owned
and cultivated land in Oregon
most of tho time and engaged in
the building occupation quite ex
tensively. Also ho was for a
time in the- general merchandise
business.
Mr. Purdy started the move
ment that resulted in the build
ing of a bridge across the Willam
ette river at Newberg, where he
formerly lived. For a time bo was
president of tho Oregon ReaJty
Exchange Investment company,
Inc.
He was a great admirer of
William Jennings Bryan, and
prior to the convention of 1920,
stated in the voters' pamphlet
that if elected he would be great
ly influenced by Bryan's advice.
His diversity of interests led to
litigation and Mr. Purdy was a
party to some famous cases before
the lower and the supreme courts
of the state. One caso was pend
ing at the time of his death.
Mr. Purdy Is survived by his
widow, nine children and a largo
number of grandchildren.
CITY ENRICHED

city coffers and caused the sus

Volunteers Offer
Christmas Help
(ContmuM trom Page One)
maA Cheer committee.
Continued response from the pub
lie to the appeals for help will en
able the committee to achieve lUt
goal,' Chairman Erixon declared
this morning. Considerable money
is still needed to meet the heavy
outlay for foodstuffs and clothing
that have and are to be provided
for poor children, but the task
of caring for all ha been greatly
simplified by the volunteer of fern'
of Individuals and organizations to
take entire families off of the
handii of the committee.
Several individuals have volun
teered to piny Santa Clans to se
lected families, and last night the
American Legion adopted fifteen
of the families on the Christmas
Cheer list, rwch will be provided
with a basket filled with Christ man
dainties and staple foods enough
to supply their need 'for several
days. Free passes to the Hcillg
theatre good for admission for
evory member of the family will
be included In each basket. '
Christmas dlnnorg have also been
offered for several others, one wo
man with a family of seven volun
teering to tako some widow and
her family of little ones into her
homo for the Yuletide dinner. A
Sunday school class has asked that
It be allowed to make up baskets
for two other families.
Thus is the demand for Christ
mas relief being1 slowly whittled
down within roach of the Christ
mas Cneer lunu, which this year
is smaller than for several years
past At 1 o'clock this afternoon
the fund nt tho Capital Journal
office had Just passed tho $250
mark. On Decembor 22 last year
mom than $400 had been contri
buted. The committee, however,
is finding soliice in the slower re
sponse this year in the fact the
moderate weather conditions have
reduced actual suffering among
tho needy to a minimum, nnd that
except for clothing nnd shoes to
be purchased most of the expend!
turea will bo for candy, nuts, toys
and the other little articles that
go to make up Christinas cheer for
tho children.
Four hundred dollars, coupled
with the bundles of clothing, food,
toys ana other articles that aro
among the donations being turned
In at the Elks Temple, should car
ry the Christmas Cheer movement
successfully over the top, It was
estimated this morning. This leaves
approximately $100 to bo raised
during the next two days.
While the committee will eon
tinue to function in emergency
cases through Christmas day, most
of the work will be completed with
the wrapping of the bundles to
morrow night, and their distribu
tion Thursday. Volunteer Elks will
gather at the temple at 7:30 . on
Thursday night to make up the
packages, and the distribution will
be mads by other volunteers in
automobiles the following day.
Each of these packages will con
tain tickets of admission to tho Ore
gon theatre good for all of tho
members of each family.
To take care of the last minute
calls for aid that come in dona
tions to the fund will be received
at the Capital Journal office up to
Thursday night.

TO THOSE WHO MOURN
Nay, Hopo may whisper with
tho dead
By bending forward where
they are:
But memory with a backward
troad,
communes with them afar.
The joya we lose aro but fore
cast, And we shall find them nil
once more,
We look behind us for tho Past,
But lol 'tis all before.
