PORTLAND, Ore., Juno 2.1. J. N. Barde, manager of tho Now York hranche of Barde and Sons, declared today thai any charge that the Barde Interests were connected unworthily with transactions concerning disposal of shipping board surplus materials was unfounded, "Tho charges arising from the gov ernment Investigation Into, the pro posed salo of shipping board property on the Pacific coast constltuto a far cloal Joko," he declared. "Tho pub lic may Judgo of tho fairness of , the bid which wo made last fall for cer tain materials by the fact that we made It with the understanding that 75 woodpn hulls, located at various points on the coast were included. We offered sovon hundred -and fifty thousand 1 dollars for those hulls. When the government trlod to soli those hulls Juno 15 last,. only one bid was rccoivod nnd that was for $97, DU0." .

PORTLAND 11 INVOLVED BE TOPIC TONIGHT Dr. Kulkerson, who speaks again this evening at the First Methodist church, In an Interview last evening said, "I have traveled around the world four times, crossed the Pacific 1$ times, and across the Indian ocean 34 times." When oaked how he came to do It, he replied, "Early In my llfo I developed a great curiosity to know how the other fellow lives. President McKlnley uppolntcd me vice-consul to Japan and at his death, Theodore Roosevelt, a personal friend of mine, sent me to Russia three times on spec ial missions, later to India and Slam. The moro I traveled, the more I found that half of the people of the earth knew not what the othor half wore doing or how they were living." Dr. Fulkerson who has been a teach- or of social science for 20 years was also vice-consul In the Far East during tho Spanlsh-Ameiican war and during tho boxer uprising In China aided In bringing settlement of that affair, and recently was logul adviser and vice- consul of I ho American government In eastern Asia. In his addresB last evening Dr. Ful kerson told of a most interesting lntor- vlow with. LI Hung Chang, who he regarded an ono of tho greatest states men tho world has over produced, not witnsMinuing ttie fact that ho was a heathen. In substantiation of this claim for tho Chinaman, Dr. Fulkerson said that tho only satisfactory answer to this question, "What In your Judg mcnt is the most distinguishing murk of a nations civilization" was given by LI Hung Chang, although tho same question had boon put to 13 loading stutosmon and scholars of the world. all of whoso answors wero disappoint ing, ono of whom based the answer on their ability to kill jieoplo and another on tho wealth per capita or tho al mighty dollar. The Chlnoso states man's answer was, "Tho most distin guishing mark of any nation's civiliza tion Is Its ability to seloct and foster Its constructive forces nnd to cllmlii uto its destructive forces which prey upon Its society and Its Institutions." LI Hung Chang proceeded further, say ing, Tho Americans liconso saloons localise there Is money in It, and England forced opium on China lio- causo thoro was monoy In It, as a re sult of which China today has a de crepit race of people At prosent tho Blogan of the American tobacco Inter chib is a cigarette lor evorv man woman and child in China, 4G6 million of them. A missionary In a lettor to Dr. FulkntBon st-nted that In ono Chi nose stroot less than a mile long, 450 children between the ages of 4 to years by actual count wore lying In the street smoking nierlcan cigar ettes. In response to the pica Dr. Kul kerson had gono to Washington, D. C. four times to endeavor to socura ac tion from congress to stop this condi tion only to bo mot with tho rebuff, "It's big business and can't be lntor forod with." Tonight Dr. Fulkerson will speak on tho subject, "Tho Now World Domoc- nicy," nt which tlmo he will review tho present drift toward democracy In Hie world, Including tho Russian sit nation, and "How Bolshevism, the most dangerous creed tho world has ever known was bom and ItB effects.'
