smuFOKD ME TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, QT?Ef,'ONT,
FOR NOI DIMMING
"I am Innocent of tho charge and
it will have to be proven against me
In court before I will pay a fine,' said
W. H. Gore today In explaining why
he entered a plea of not guilty before
Justice Taylor following his arrcBt by
County Prosecutor Roberts' motorcy
cle cop on tho Pacific highway be
cause of not having bis auto lights
dimmed, in compliance with tho state
law, as the cop claims.
The motorcycle cop had just ar
rested a Portland auto dealer on the
same charge, and the two were stand
ing by the car at the side of the road,
engaged in a loud word wranglo when
Mr. Goro nnd his son Jay came" driv
ing by. The cop ordered Jay, who
was at tho wheel, to Btop, but Mr.
Gore, who was In the rear seat, think
ing that tho motorcycle cop and the
other man were returning from Horn
brook, ordered Jay to speed up.
Tho cop then speeded aftor them
on his motoroyclo nnd rodo besido
their car, calling upon them to stop,
without showing his badge or tolling
thorn that he was nn officer. They
also claim that he swore at them re
peatedly and was otherwise abusive.
Finally, when ho showed his badge,
thoy stopped tho car and submitted to
arrest.
"Tho law says that tho front lights
shall be dimmed when tho safety nnd
convenience of tho public demand,"
said Mr. Gore todny, "and thero was
certainly no occasion for us to dim
our lights that night, as there was no
ono on tho highway ahead of us ex
cept these two, who wore standing by
the car at the sldo of tho road and
wrangling."
Otto Schncidor, tho Portland auto
dealer arrested that same night,
pleaded guilty before Justice Taylor
yostorday and was fined $5 nnd costs.

LOYAL 10 WAR;
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 2S. Resolu
tions "acclaiming" tho peace propos
al of Pope Benedict and pledging all
Catholics of this country to the war
program of the United States, but
containing no clause urging accept
ance by tho American government of
the papal suggestions, were reported
favorably today by the resolutions
committee of tho American Catholic
societies.
The loyalty resolution declares that
"In accordance with tho unbroken
tmdltlon of loyalty for the founda
tions of this republic, we solemnly
'affirm nur incttlennhln ntlnphment tn
tho principles of American govern
ment and we pledge without reser
vation our blood and our treasures
for tho defense and perpetuation of
our beloved country."
Tho popo'B proiioBal was spoken of
as follows:
"We roverontly nnd joyfully ac
claim the action of our most holy
father, Benedict XV, in his proposal
of a basis for tho negotiation of peace
between tho warring nations, nnd we
mark with pardonable prldo tho ac
cord between tho articles of agree
ment offered by the supreme pontiff
and the tentative suggestions former
ly made hy tho president of the Uni
ted States."
LOYALTY 10 U. S. A
A peculiar change in'loyalty duo to
the war came to notice last Saturday
ovenlng when a German couple who
are residents ln this vicinity entered
Johnson's jewelry storo nnd asked
John W. Johnson if he could erase
tho German Inscription lu their wed
ding ring and engrave the samo in
scription ln English instead.
They were told that it could easily
bo done, and when asked why they
wanted the change made, the hus
band replied: "When we were mar
ried we had tho inscription engraved
in German and wero proud to hnvo
that language used. Since then we
have parted with those people and
want tho words In good old U. S. A."
Tho wlfo also spoko along tho same
lines, and tho Incidental conversation
showed that their deep sympathies
and loyalty wore with tho United
States In the war, than which no bet
ter proof could ho offered than to
have their sacred wedding ring in
scription changed. They left Hie ring
to be changed.

TUESDAY. 'AUGUST 28.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28. The pos
sibility that Austria and perhaps
other allies of Germany may soon de
clare war against the United States
because of the financial aid given
Italy is recognized by administration
officials.
It was carefully explained todny
that there Is nothing in the existing
situation, cither diplomatic or mili
tary, that would cause the United
States to take the initiative, but that
an anomalous state of affairs which
may result in broadening tho war
docs exist was not denied.
Relations of the United States with
Germany's allies are dofined as still
a state of broken diplomatic relations.
Officials hesitate to describe them as
unfriendly, although admitting that
they could scarcely be called friendly.
The policy of extending aid to coun
tries fighting certain of Germany's
allies will be continued, and it was
admitted that Austria might not im
probably construce such assistance as
a warlike action.
