"Broken Chains" featuring colleen moore claire windsor ernest t0rrence malcom McGregor TONIGHT LAST TIMES 1 "Sure Fire Flint" starring Johnny llinos Dr.- Lincoln Wirt, international commissioner for the Near East re lief, was the principal speaker at tho chamber of commerce forum lunch eon at the Hotel Medford this noon at which there wa.s a capacity at tendance. Dr. Wirt will deliver an address on the Near East at the Pres byterian church tonight. Ono hundred' find fifty thousand children !of all ages up to 10 are now under the care of the Near East Re lief, according to tho speaker. Dur ing the last five -''years seventy-five million dollars have been Bpent by the Near East Relief. Tho books of tho organization havtj been gone over by the federal auditors and the Unit ed Btates government states that only five per cent of tho money spent dur ing thoso five years has gone for ad ministrative purposes. Ninety-five cents out of every dollar go to feed tho hungry and clothe the naked, ac cording to Dr. Wit t. Tho influence of the American flag in the Near East and tho respect shown it is greater than that shown toward any other nation. America hns tho chance to build up for her self there a prestige ten times greater than that of any other nation. The Near East, according to the speaker, 1 the moat important part of the globe In that it is the key to the Dar danelles. Whoever holds control over tho Dardanelles has a strangle-hold on the food of tho world, declared Dr Wirt. Tho Near East rtoliof Intends to continue Its great work as long as It is necessary to rear and educate tho homeless, parontless children in its care. They will be given the same education that American chil dren get. They aro being taught by American men and women and when they grow able to take car of them selves will be tho leaders in that im portant part of the world. "Constantinople, a city of three million people, is without a sewer system," said tho speaker, "Hundreds and thousands of girls, some of them even of the .Russian nobility, degrad ed to a point where thoy can be bought body and soul, for a sandwich or a cup of coffee, walk tho streets. Even now thoso girls are being im ported by their procurers to Europe and oven to tho United States. How do I know? I was In Cuba three weeks ago and a steamer with twenty of these girls aboard neurly landed and was prevented only by tho fortu nate action of tho authorities. I'll wager they aro Bafo ashoro on this side by now. "No barrier high enough or immi gration ditch deep enough can be thrown around our country to bar the physical and moral diseuso that can como fro mthsi place. Tho spring must bo cleaned at its source." Dr. Wirt exposed some very inter esting views regarding tho interna tional court immigration laws and tho Chester concessions, "I want to see Uncle Sam with his strong arms and hlH clean heart and his reputa-i Lion for a square deal sitting In an J international court," said tho speaker.! "Other nations aro so close to the Near EuHt problem and are so affect-1 ed by selfish Ideals that they cannot, see clearly. Tho United States with; no Bt-Klsh motive and with a long perspective, can look at tho thing squarely. The Influence of America is greater than that of any other na tion, ono crook of tho finger of the American representative In an inter national court,- would mean more than a regiment of soldiers of any other nation." "I am glad to rend in a paper 1 picked up this morning of the final consummation of tho Chester con cessions. It moans that four hun dred million dollars of American money will bo spent in tho Near East, hospitals will bo built, educational In stitutions erected and tho pooplo benefitted," GET WAGE INCREASE BAN FRANCISCO, May 1. A "progressive" strlko of ten inn-tern here for a fifty cents n day wage Increase ended today with tho granting of tho Increase by tho employers, it wnn announced by union officials. The Increase had been authorized by tho impartial wago board, formed by cer tain business interests of tho city to arbltrato wago differences.
