COMMITTEE REPORTS
The following is a report contributed
by the Community Chest committee
As the executive committee of the
Community Chest fund it is perhaps
due the contributors to that fund that
its custodians shall make a report at
this time.
The Community chest plan was
adopted by the Hood River Commer
cial club and endorsed by the Tuesday
Lunch club because it was found that
definite preparations were being made
for at least four separate campaigns
for funds to hnance charities and phil
antbropies. The Salvation Army was
here with representatives asking that
$1,700 be raised for their organization
The Near East Relief, through its
local representatives and through the
Portland office, were expecting to raise
$1,600 in this county. The Red Cross
Society was asking our people to make
a regular membership canvass and
raise perhaps $1,000 in his way. The
Y. M. C. A., too, was asking for a
substantial fund for their general state
work. Now all of these organization
have enough local supporters men of
influence that if one campaign had
been made the others certainly would
have followed. In addition to this
our citizens were faced by the task of
raising munev for the local Red Cross
which is bearing a substantial portion
of the salary and expense of the public
health nurse, and which is ministering
to the needv all over the county. The
amount budgeted $3,000. Also, the
public welfare committee, which
relieving noverty in a very substantia
and careful manner, needed several
hundred dollars for the continuance of
its work.
Now, aa the task of raising these
funds generally falls upon about the
same group of public-spirited men and
women, in order to save time and over-
head expenses it was determined to
follow the plan of other cities and to
group all of the funds into one com
munity endeavor. Another advantage
in this method is that the Community
Chest committee and not any outside
organization decides upon the proper
amount to ask from the people.
In organizing the Community Chest
at the behest of the Commercial club
and other civic organizations, a meet
ing was called 01 tne representatives
of civic, fraternal and religious organ
izations at the Commercial club,
About 12 people were present. It was
there decided to ask for a total fund of
47,500, more than half of which was to
be kept in Hood River county for local
needs. A wavs and means committee,
consisting of Mr. Fredricy, Mr. Blan
char and Mr. Boddy recommended that
this was the amount that should he
asked. At the same time, this smaller
committee reported to the larger group
that, in their judgment, the campaign
would require so much time and so
much clerical work that there was no
one in Hood River who could afford to
give his time gratuitously to the work.
It was suggested to the general com
mittee that about $200 be used for
overhead expenses and that someone
be employed for at least a month to
run the campaign, k. Ej. ocott, wno
was not present at the meeting and
who had not taken part in any of the
deliberations, was selected lor the
work. The committee was instructed
to tell him that he should employ a
stenographer and that any inordinate
amount of time that he was taken
from his own business the committee
felt he should be paid for. The com
mittee saw no reason in asking one
man to give very much more time than
others were asked to give. Mr. Scott
has at no time asked any salary or the
committee nor has he to this date been
paid one cent for his work. The same
is true of Mr. Fierson. Both of these
men have given very largely of their
time, and yet at no time has there
been any agreement that any amount
should be paid them for their services,
There has only been the suggestion
that they should not be asked to do
more than anvone else in the matter of
giving time and service to this work.
Ihe information as to what tne ex
penses of the committee have been and
what amounts, if any. have been paid
for service, are all upon the records
and are open to any investigation.
No member of the executive com
mittee is in the habit of paying any at
tention to anonymous letters published
n the newspapers, but because some
11-informed individuals have raised the
Question as to any remuneration that
has been paid for services in this cam
paign, we ieei tnat tne aDove explana
tion is due the public at this time
when we are finally closing the can
vass.
The present committee has labored
faithfully and its secretary and treas
urer have labored unselfishly, for the
public good. They are now quite will
ing to turn over the responsibility to
their critics and will be glad to have
these men raise the funds for Hood
River's charities and philanthropies
hereafter. Lvery member of the exec
utive committee and staff will promise
to give as generously as heretofore to
the next Community Chest or what
ever it may be called, if the small dig
satisfied group will but manage the
campaign.
The total amount now in sight is
$4,500. There are a good many public
pirited people who nave njt yet sub
scribed for various reasons, such aa be-
ng absent from the community, etc..
and they will be reached through a cir
cular letter w hich soon is to be sent
out. The total fund certainly will not
exceed $5,000. On a basis of $4,500,
the following allotments have been
made: Red Cross Membership, $450;
Salvation Army, $350; Y. M. C A.,
$.-$50; Near East Relief, $800; Public
Welfare (Local) $400; Red Cross (Lo
cal Public Health), $2,150.

Old Portage Boad Condemned
Cascade Locks folk bere on business
report that proceedings have been
started by the state of Washington
against the Cascades Railway Co. and
the Warren Parking Co. to condemn
the right of way of the old Portage
railroad around the Cascades. It is
proposed to use the oM roadbed as a
tart of the North Hank Highway.
At rresent the old road bed is used
only during the almon season by the
packing company, and it is said that
the fishing concern is willing to relin
quish all of its rights if the state will
grant it certain privileges of use of the
new road and landing facilities at eb
wheels.
GO TO SUPREME COURT
Arrested by J. Salzman, state traffic
officer, W. i Lund and J. T. Elbert, of
Portland, repesentstives of the Inter
national Harvester Co., were arraigned
Thursday before Justice of the Peace
Onthank on a charge of making illegal
use of a dealer's motor car license.
The men, it was stated by Mr. Salz
man. were transporting a tractor on a
truck carrying a dealer's license, when
under the law the truck cannot be used
for such commercial purposes. The
truck and tractor were left here in
hands of the court in lieu of bail. Mr.
Salzman stated that he could not re
lease the truck for transporting the
tractor to Portland over the Columbia
River Highway, without first receiving
funds for the purchase of a commercial
license for the truck.
The defendants pleaded not guilty
and trial of the case was postponed
indefinitely at the instance of District
Attorney Baker. Mr. Lund and Mr.
Elbert, it waa stated, were acting on
the instructions of superior officers of
the International Harvester Co., and
the case, it is expected, will go to the
Supreme Court, to test out the license
law, applying to dealers' plates.
Mr. Salzman stated that it was his
hope that the case would proceed to
the high tribunal, in order that he
might get a full definition of what is
meant by demonstration under the law
"Under the law," said the traffic
man, "dealers are supposed to use the
dealers plates exclusively on cars be
ing need for demonstration. But it is
too often the cae that 1 have to rely
on the word of the man operating such
a car. It almost resolves itself to the
point that I can only catch the man
who will tell me the truth. I hope
that the case in its progress to the su
preme court will give us a definition
that will enable us to determine what
is a demonstration."
Traffic Officer Wood Wednesday ap
prehended a truck of the E. A. Franz
Co., bearing dealers' license plates.
which was being used, he stated, in
transporting furniture. The plates
were removed and sentence suspended
for further action.
The local traffic officers are exceed
ingly busy. James Showers, 17-year
old boy, was apprehended driving a
Ford cur without license plates and
possessing no driver s permit. He
stated that he was contemplating the
purchase of the machine from J. C.
Meyer and was driving it around the
block to determine if it were in good
condition. The young man stated that
he was going to make use of the car as
a delivery wagon for a Heights grocer.
Justice Onthank suspended sentence
until he could investigate the case.
Neal Robertson, arrested for reck
less driving on the Columbia River
Highway was fined $10 and sentenced
to 10 days in jail. The jail sentence
was suspended. E. C. Wood we 1 1, of
White Salmon, was fined $2 and costs
for failure to display a 1922 license
plate. Justice Onthank stated that
the fine would have been greater had
Mr. Woodwell resided in Oregon. The
Taft Transfer Co. was fined $5 by
Municipal Judge Howe for double
parking. Judge Howe fined Mrs. C.
H. Henney $5 for driving on wrong
side of street.
ALL CANDIDATES ANTI-
ALIEN OWNERSHIP
The study of platforms of candidates
seeking nomination at the approaching
May primaries and those out two years
ago is interesting, according to K. E.
bcott, secretary of the Hood River
Anti-Asiatic Association, or organiza
tion especially busy two years ago in
securing sentiment on land ownership
of aliens in Uregon.
Two years ago." says Mr. Scott.
"none of the candidates implied any
attitude, at least in their paltforms,
on the anti Oriental question. Tb'm
year all of them have included it. It
is a staple promise that all of them
seem to think it necessary to carry.
AH we have to do now is to choose
from the list of all of them. They 8 1 1
oppose Japanese land ownership. Some
ot those who are among the most ar
dent in their expression of need for ac
tion against the Orientals were not
very strong in an expression of such
sentiment when we sought a legisla
tive enactment at the last general
session of the legislature. One of the
gubernatorial candidates, Charles Hall,
who was against our proposed legisla
tive bill, is now an out and out pro
ponent of legislation to protect against
Oriental aggression. We failed to get
any encouragement, however, from
Mr. Hall, when we were down tt the
legislature."
Mr. Scott says his organization is
not seeking to take any active part in
the present campaign, inasmuch as the
Japanese land meausre will be sub
mitted at the general election by direct
initiative to vote of the people.
