Vessel Which Fled From
Everett Has Exciting Run
Down Coast; Crew 'Broke'
One Member Reports
EVERETT. Wash.. Oct. IS. (AP)
Bale but 'broke" In Chile after an
exciting flight down the west coast
of the Americas are the officers and
seamen who manned the Portland,
big German motorship which was
In northwest waters when war was
declared.
This was the word received by Hoy
Gehofleld of Everett from Valpariso,
Chile, from a member of the crew.
The story of the flight from
Everett, where the ship discharged
Its passengers and hoisted Us anchor
late on the night of August 30,
was one of narrow escapes and con
' stant paint Jobs. Twice the ship was
repainted and off Chile it wtffc only
the timely arrival of a dense fog
bank that saved the freighter.
The ship had left Everett report
edly for Portland, Ore., but out of
the ha rbor he re the sal lors we n t
to work with their brushes and
painted out the craft's name and
insignia, substituting that of a
French ship. About three days later,
the letter said, a radio message was
intercepted indicating that the guise
had been discovered, so another
change was made, this time to a
Japanese name and appearance.
Some days out of Everett the
Portland saw two cruisers. The let
ter did not indicate their nationality
or whether there was any pursuit.
Just off Coqulmbo, Chile, a British
warship was sighted but a dense fog
came up and the ship steered Into
It. By the time the mist had dissi
pated the Portland was safe in neu
tral waters.

MODERN COMPLEXITIES OBSCURE
GOD; WEATHERFORD AVERS
In a pulpit editorial before his audience last night, Rev. Fred M. Weather
ford, pastor, Medford Church nf the Nazarene said:
We live in an age of complexities.!
The scientific field today is as amaz
ing In Its scope of complexities as
It Is enlightening to Its scope of
revealation. Religion Is likewise a
maze of complexities. Truth is more
often perverted than revealed by re
ligionists. There are many philoso
phies of religion, but only one orth
odox evangelical brand and only one
plan or salvation. The field of edu
cation has resolved itself into an
Inexplicable system of complex Ideas.
This system of ideas, which enlight
ening mankind, also threatens like
a parasitic growth, to kill the very
civilization it has produced. It Is
significant that our educational sys
tem, while improving the mental
powers of man, remains Impotent to
improve his character.
War. which was once Inevitable
because of the greeds and passions
of men Is now thrice Inevitable be
cause of the false philosophies cre
ated by man's presumably Intellect
ual innovations.
Civilization Is endangering Itself
by the elimination of Christianity.
Where material values are given pre
eminence above the spiritual, Chris
tian ideals cease to be vital. When
Christian Ideals cease to be vital
paganism moves to the throne.
No one would question today that
we live In a militant world, but our
militancy is set up on a wrong
course. The militancy we need to
day Is a spiritual one. A militancy
that will lead us out of our maze
of material complexities. We need
a rejection and overthrow of the
false gods of material philosophies.
We need a system like Elijah insti
tuted to overthrow the false phil
osophizes of his day. by demon
strating the power of God.
No statesman of today is capable
of leading a people in the political
world except he who worships the
God of Elijah. A statesman should
be known as much for piety as for
his political sagacity. Only God can
build a character that is worthy of
leadership. To this end more is re
quired In personality than magnet
ism, or intellectual ability. Charac
ter at Us best Is Individuality ani
mated by God.
There Is being foisted upon the
world today systems of national lead
ership, which place the state above
the individual. In these systems, duty
to the state is taueht as & substi
tute for duty to God. They teach
that the individual and his freedom,
must be suppressed in the interests
of the state. They pretend that th
strength of government Is a sub
stitute for tne strength of the In
dividual. But where the rights of
the individual are taken from him.
he is weakened. We challenge the
statement that a government built
on a mass of weakened Individuals
can endure.
Our Government was bullded by
men whose lives took their roor?-'

DISCOVERED SAEE
REEFERS. B. O, Oct. 12. (CP)
Private W. E. Shane of the United
States army, missing since he para
chuted from a crashing Washington
national guard plane near here Mon
day afternoon, has been found, safe
and unhurt,
Shane was located yesterday about
six miles from this little railway
town, 85 miles northeast of Van
couver. Second Lieut. Edward B. Saxon
of the national guard at Spokane.
Wash., who was flying Shane from
Spokane to Fort Lewis, Wash., when
their plane ran short of gasoline
over rugged British Columbia ter
ritory, also escaped safely by para
chute. He reached Vancouver yes
terday to make arrangements for a
search party to start hunting for
his companion.
Influence of refined education, on
minds of peculiar structure, reason
and experience forbid us to expect,
that national morality can prevail,
In exclusion of religious principle."
He also stated: "Of all dispositions
and habits which lead political pros
perity, religion and morality are In
dispensable supports. In vain would
that man claim the tribute of pat
riotism, who should labor to subvert
these great pillars of human hap
piness, these firmest props of the
duties of men and citizens."
In dealing with false philosophies
of life, Benjamin Franklin refuted
them In the following terms, when
he wrote to Tom Paine, after he had
been invited to read his manuscript,
"The Age of Reason" : A treatise
on atheism). "I have read your man
uscript with some attention. ... I
shall only give you my opinion,
that though your reasonings are
subtle, and may prevail to some
readers, you will not succeed so as
to change the general sentiments
of mankind on that subject, and
the consequence of printing this
piece will be a great deal of odium
drawn upon yourself, mischief to you
and no benefit to others. He that
spits against the wind, spits In his
own face."
In a letter to Dr. Stiles, then
president of Yale college, Benjamin
Franklin, one of the greatest states
men In American annals, said this:
"As to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion
of -sthom you particularly desire. I
think His system of morals and
His religion, aa He left them to us.
the best the world ever saw or Is
like to see."
"I believe the soul of man is
Immortal, and will be treated with
justice In another life respecting its
conduct in this."
The flagrant outbreak of modern
world evils is the self-imposed evi
dence that there Is a moral lack
In human nature which only a su
pernatural revealation to the indi
vidual can solve. It has been proven
conclusively that nations who are
at war on Christianity have no con
science In the matter of principle
respecting right and have eliminated
: the role of Justice in their mode
of conduct.
The force of arms can nevr serve
as the medicinal agency to nurse
this morally sick world back
health aealn. If one tenth part of
the money that Is now being spnt
by the nations of the world in
armaments were spent In recruiting
the world spiritually, we would build
a new world lnter-state, In which
men and nations would live in peace
and freedom. Only God-guided Ipad
ers can direct In the solution of
world problems, that have now so
deeply Involved us, and point the way
out to a new world, where Its citi
zens honor Ood and serve Him. The
only sure foundation for world peace
I and wo:ld happiness Is for men
lniversally. to lead Christ-prln:lpled
live. No man can llv such a life
without being a Christian.

gACK BEAR COAL
TO UNDERGO TEST !
BY
Samples of coal are being taken

NEW YORK, Oct. 12 Pt Former

"Oppression, he told 10.000 Polish-Americans
last night. "Is one of

oppressed and destroys the oppressor.
"No matter what may be signed
on papers called peace, there will be
no permanent stability and no per
manent peace to either Germany
or Russia so long as oppression of
