J Churches as Salem s
Historical Heritage
Three St. Paul's
churches, scene of devotional
services here during the past
100 years, stand today as a
part of Salem's historical her
itage. Shortly, perhaps within
a week's time, Salem first Epis
copal church, a landmark erect
ed in 1854 and consecrated by
Bishop Thomas F. Scott, assist
ed by Rev. St. Michael Fack
ler, April 22, 1855, will be dismantled.
In 1950 Salem Episcopalians
celebrated the centennial of ac
quisition of their church site
at the southwest corner of
Church and Chemeketa streets,
a gift from W. H. Wilson,
agen', in 1849.
Construction of the first
church in 1854 was started
without ado some time in 1854.

Spiritualist Church
In New Location
The First Spiritualist
church will hold its first
meeting a', its new location,
1320 Madison street Sunday.
Dedication of the new quar
ters will be held at a later
date. The organization has
met for number of years at
the Woman's club, 480 North
Cottage street.
by combining Tommy Cox's
store (Salem's first) with
Thomas Powell's blacksmith
shop.
It may also be accepted as
an historical fact that this
first Episcopal church, un
til now used as a parish house,
is the oldest edifice standing in
Salem and was in 1855 among
the earlier. Few, if any denom
inations in Oregon have re
senting 100 years of growth.
On June 1, 1856, when Rev.
James R. W. Sellwood was rec
tor, Salem's St. Paul's church
had four communicants: Mrs.
Griswold, Mrs. Williams, Mrs
Allen and Mrs. Thompson
When the new church at Lib
erty and Myers street was oc
cupied for the first time for
devotional services on Christ
Mas eve of 1953 there were
1021 communicants..
Organization of the parish
affected by a selection of war
dens and vestrymen was accom
plished December 19, 1864. A
By BEN MAXWELL
Episcopal schoolhouse was started In 1870
and on Sexagesima Sunday,
February 21, 1871, the Sunday
school) met for the first time
in this new structure. This same
year saw perfection of a guild
organization and the presenta
tion of a new cabinet organ by
the ladies of the congregation
But growth of the church had
been slow and distressing eco
nomic conditions in the 1870s
were reflected in church af
fairs. Under orders by Bishop
Morris Rev. I. H. Babcock took
charge of the parish. May 21,
1877, not by virtue of any
call but as sent by the Bishop
to live, not on a regular salary,
but on the offerings of the
faithful." Even so late as 1891
Rev. W. Lund received but $60
a month with use of the rec
tory and experienced some dif
ficulty in getting vestrymen to
spend $45 for a woodshed that
would keep his fuel dry.
Plans for a two-story rec
tory were completed in 1883
and in that year the church
acquired a spire costing $100.
A lithograph of Salem made
by Kuchel & Dresel in 1858
shows St. Paul's church with
an ornamental device above
the entrance that looks a good
deal like a colonial bed with
four fancy newel posts. Then
the parish had about 70 com
municants and the Sunday
school under Jos A. Sellwood,
superintendent, enrolled 80
pupils.
Although Salem had an elec
tric light plant of sorts in the
middle 1880s lights were first
used In St. Paul s church on
Sunday, June 14. 1891.
Between 1890 and 1910 his
tory of the church is not
elaborate. In 1913 a new altar
was supplied by the St. Agnes
guild and other contributors.
I This fine altar with reredos,
rail and credence of oak is
now installed
church.
Work on Salem's second St.
Paul's church was begun July
5, 1922. Lack of funds, how
ever, temporarily suspended
construction and the edifice
was not occupied urtil March
25, 1323. Two years later,
June 14. 1925, this church, by
now entirely free from debt,
was consecrated by Rev. Wal
ter Taylor Sumner, Bishop of
Oregon.
On Saturday night, March
19, 1927, the church was en
tered by a burglar who stole
the communion silver and
available alms.
Premises at the southwest
corner of Church and Cheme
keta streets, a n Episcopal
church property for 104 years
and the site of ' devotional
services for 100 years will,
after December M, 1953. be
come the property of a fi
nanical institution with im
mediate plans for removing
the ancient parish house, the
1922 church and rectory and
converting the site into a park
ing area. Thereafter Episco
palian services will be entire
ly conducted within a spacious
new church, architeoturally
attractive and designed for an
expanded service that has char
acterized the history of St.
Paul's church since the arri
val here of Rev. George H.
Swift, rectore In 1929, when
there were but 230 communi
cants as compared with 1021
now.

Washington M" The CIO's
research and education direc
tor, Stanley H. Ruttenberg, has
refused appointment by Presi

In a letter he made public
last night, Ruttenberg told the

"It is also inconceivable to
