According to Kent Shoemaker, chairman of the Legion climb, delegations will be present from various parts of the Northwest While the mid-summer recreational event was originally conceived last year as an exclusive Legion party, the possiowiiies oi turning it into an occa sion for the general public, under Le gion auspices, were realized at once, and there was no limit on participation last year, when 150 journeyed to the mne nign camp or the r"ost. Mr. Shoemaker has received corres pondence from several this season, in dicating that the public rests under the impression that only Legion members are invited to climb the mountain. He says : "Our Post here is devoting its ener gies now toward making the Mount Hood Climb an annual feature of Ore gon out door life. We want all the people who feel like it, wherever they live, to come and join us. Because of our arrangements with guides and as result of the cooperation of local folk and the free services of our members in arranging the camp, we are able to provide a mountain climbing excursion at a minimum of expense. "We have arranged with automobile owners and truck drivers here to trans port passengers to and from the moun tain for $4.50, but we will welcome folk who have their own cars, and they may deduct thin transporation charge i rum me general diii. others may not wish to climb the mountain, and they may deduct the regular guide charge of $3. We will charge $5 for the meals' served in the eamp. The Mount Hood Climb is not organized for the purpose of making monev. It gives our Post an activity that may be developed for the public good of our community and it enables us to gather each year in a pleasant reunion on the mountain side. ' .The Legion Mount Hood Climb is looking toward the development of the 8nowfieIds of the mountain on the north side for annual summer sports that are usually enjoyed only in the winter months. The vast snow fields, the Le gion members declare, offer a fine op portunity for Fourth of July ski tourn eys and for snowthoeing in August. With the construction of the Mount Hood Loop Highway and a lateral road, tbe survey for which is now un- der way by the Bureau of Public Roads, the legion camp will be but an hour's ride from this city. Legion members, who plan on making the an nual ascent of the peak one of the prominent features of Oregon sport life, declsre that th opening of the roads will probably result in a ski tourney with thousands of motorists at the highland camp to witness the event. A feature of this year's climb will be a radio receiving set.' Lloyd Sim son, a pioneer in radio telephony here and a veteran of the navy, where he was a wireless operator, will be in charge of this feature. The entire personnel of Company C. 186th Regiment. O. N. G., will accom pany the climbing party, and Capt, Van Horn, commanding officer, with this unit will police the camp. The Knights of Pythias band will give con certs at campfire programs. K. Lfc routt, mess sergeant of old Twelfth Company, O. C. A., mobilized here in 1917, will have charge of the camp mess. opment of water power at Celilo falls. Judge M. C. George recalled the time in 1851 when he and bis father and mother camped on the very spot where the celebration was being held, after having come over the Oregon trail from Ohio. W. P. Merry, a member of the Port land delegation, spoke briefly on the spirit of the occasion and praised local Kiwaniana for taking the lead in hold ing an inter-city celebration. County Judge Adkiason pointed out, in bis address, that the meeting Sun day was not only a celebration of com pletion of the Columbia River High way, but also of the start of The Dalles-California Highway, the first work on which was begun in Wasco county but a few weeks ago. Mr. Adkisson praised the pioneers of good-road building, John B. Yeon, Si mon Benson, Samuel Lancaster and others, for their foresight. It was estimated that between 1,000 and 1,500 people were at the celebra tion, scattered all over the park where shade was to be found and where they could still be within range of the speakers' voice. GRANGE CELEBS . TIONJSSUESS 3.000 AT BIG COMMUNIT PICNIC Stirring Addresses Delivered Z higv Wilson and Rev. Boddy Latter , Appeals for Tolerance Mr. Blythe Writes from Newport WASCO CELEBRATES Newport. Ore., June 26, 1922. Editor Glacier: A train of nine coaches filled with Grand Army people arrived here from Portland at 4.30 p. m. today. Probably 200 came Sat urday and Sunday. The litttle town of Newport, with a population of about 1,000, will be taxed to the utmost to provide food and shelter for it guests, and probably a couple hundred more will come tomorrow. The trip up the Willamette valley was delightful. The train left the Union depot at 7.30 in the morning and was nearinar Corvallis before the heat of the day made the coaches uncom fortable. After leaving Corvallis sea breezes soon were met with, and when we left the train at Yaquina and boarded the steamer and barge to take us to Newport overcoats were in demand. But few automobiles were on hand to meet the crowd when it landed from the boats, and the committees of cit izens selected to assign the guests to quarters had their hands full for the rest of the evening. The rush for restaurants showed that the guests had brought their appetites with them. Electioneering was hot on the train coming own. When we left home J felt confident our candidate for Com mander would have a walkover. Now it looks like the contest will be close. There is no fight against Castner. vyuuams, our present uommander, is the target of the enemy. If Castnef is elected, Williams will take his old position of Assistant Adjutant Gen eral, which office he held for 14 years nntil he was elected Commander a year ago. Though hardly believable, the Ku Klux Klan is an issue in the ranks of the staid old soldiers of the Grand Army of tbe Republic. In the disputa tions on the train today Democrats were heard to declare they would vote for Olcott and Republicans were heard to say' they would vote for Pierce. If a resolution comes up in the encamp ment denouncing the Klan and it will coma up there will be something doing. Canby W. R. C. is here in force. It con.iets of Mrs. F. C. Wittenberg, president; Megdames A. W. Isbeil, Ida Crapper, Belle McCurdv. Kate Fred erick, Alida Shoemaker. C. H. Cast ner, F. S. DeWitt, Iva Sconce, Jennie Beitley. Jennie Jewett, R. F. Frasier, J. M. Wood and W. B. Tewksbury. With Mrs. Clara B. Marlor, a summer resident here, Canby Corps will have 15 votes in the convention. Canby Post, with Castner, Nichols, Frasier, Jewett, Rigby and Blythe present, will have six votes. Comrade Rigby has applied for a transfer but is still a member of Canby Post and will vote with its delegation. The delegation from Canby Corps arrived at Union depot just as the G. A. R. train was about to pull out. Mrs. Jennie Bentley, always equal to an emergency, hunted up the train dis patcher and had him hold the train until all the delegation had secured tickets. For some reason tickets could not be purchased at Hood River.

The State Highway Commission was represented by W. B. Barratt. The other commissioners and Governor Olcott were unable to attend. A picnic luncheon at noon, partici pated in by scores of families, and a concert by The Dalles Knights of Pythias band, preceded the Droirram. which consisted entirely of speeches. Attendance was curtailed somewhat because of the heat, which was 104 above. Portland was represented by George Rauch. president of the Ad Club of that city, and a delegation made up of members of other civic organizations. Captain George Wilbur, Kent Shoe maker and August Guignard headed the Hood River delegation. Af.glimpae into the future of Oregon from the road-building standpoint was given by Highway Commissioner Bar ratt in his address. Barratt pointed that the state's road money is now al mont expended and that most of the main trunk and primary toads have now either been completed or soon will be completed. Tbe state in tbe next few rears will be able to get between fc-.00.OW and tl.000.000 from the federal governrrwr.i by voting additional road money, Mr. Barratt explained, and this money is primarily intended for tbe construction of laterals or connecting road, by mesne of which every community in the state may hare routes of irgrest and egrens to tbe main highways. "Vote a little more monev to finish tbe road system cf Oregon ard get roads into the interior," Mr. Barrttt plesded. "W want more miksg. and the persons wbo dm tbe roads will biit hrer.ite taxes." Inrtead cf persons Itvirg alorg the Columbia gwg being neighbors, whle communities are now joined together with comnxwi irtreu bectue cf tbe Columbia River Highway, George Raoca declared in bis adlres.

Langillf. here Saturday from the Ix)st Lake section, where he is in charge of surfacing sections of the road in the Oregon National Foret, stated that the Lost Lake Highway would be open through to the Uke by Friday. Mr. Langille's crews have been busy mending the road, removing traces of last winter's storm and put ting rock on sections that are wet. Gravel surfacing will be used on other parts of the rend. It is anticipated that at least 1.000 will penetrate the Lout Lake country next week end. The crowds there over the past week end ran into large num bers. The opening of the road will result in immediate work of preparations for the summer can.p of Samuel C. Lan caster. Snowbanks still rise high on the summit between the lake and the confluence of the West Fork and Lake Branch of Hood river, it is said. CREWS START MARKET ROAD SOUTH OF CITY Crews have begun wcrk carrifying the old wster Umnd n.aradam highway south of tbe citv. where corctete sur facing will t laid under the Market Road bill. The old ri ad is on an esy grade and no excavation wi'l be neces sary. The link will be 7-8 cf a mile long.

An estimated 3,000 visited the Park Grange community picnic in celebra tion of the Fourth. While the day was one generally of hilarity and joy, it was not without its moments of solem nity during the course of addresses de livered by Rev. W. H. Roddv nrl Judge Fred W. Wilson. Judge Wilson made an appeal to his audience to study the history of the nation from the time of the signing of the Declaration of Independence until the adoption of the Constitution. He urged that citizens o today familiarize themselves with the biographies of the forefatherajof the great nation. Judge Wilson marshalled briefly before his hearers outstanding features of the lives of many of the great figures of the early days of American history. He declared that such a study on the part of Americans would give them greater reverence for the ideals of their country and would better fit them for solution of problems of today, problems that were similar to those of earlier times. Judge Wileon declared that he had concluded, after an exhaustive study of national events that God aids the nation whose citizens seek to walk in spiritual ways. He urged that Amer ica not loRe her soul. As a man who had done his part in preserving the soul of America, Judge Wilson cited Edward I). Baker, Civil war United States senator from Ore gon. In dramatic manner Judge Wil son recited the events attending the philippic of Breckenridge of Kentucky, characterized as burdened with trea son, and the reply it aroused from Senator Baker, who bad chanced to visit the senate chambers dressed In the full uniform of a colonel of the Union array. The Oregon senator a few weeks later met death at the head of his column in battle. Judge. Wilson urged that Americana let not avarice or greed direct them to a coure that will jeopardize the, soul of America. Judge Wilson brought his address to a close by a quotation of the words of President Harding recently when the bodies of 5,000 American dead soldiers, back from the fields of France, were being lowered from the ship to their country's soil: " This mut not happen again.' " ; "Let us hope and pray," said Judge Wilson, "that it may , never happen again, but as long as human avarice", paBsion and greed are loosed, we must be prepared. Let us hope no such oc casion will ever arise, but if it does, let us hope that we will arise to the occasion and save the tout of Amer ica." . Judge Wilson pointed to the veterans of the Civil, Spanish-American and Great War as the personification of men who have striven to save the country's soul. He delcared that tbe country looks . in large part to the members of the American Legion for leadership. He urged the veterans to seek wise council, in order that they might direct the national tendency as the forefathers would have them di rected. An interesting member of the audi ence was Rev. Geo. W. Kennedy, pio neer Methodist rider. Mr. Kennedy recalled that 60 years ago he had beard the late Joseph G. Wilson, father of the orator of the day at the Grange celebration, deliver an oration in Wasco county. The address of Mr. Boddy sounded a warning against the present day ten dency toward intolerance among Amer icans. He said : "If America is to continue to be the home of fine fraternity among men, we must rediscover our appreciation for those of different race, color or creed. Respect for unlikeneas is the genuine test of America, and it is a real test of a nation's culture and character. He who demands that, in order to share hit) confidence and respect, one shall produce bis doctrinal and creedal shib boleths, reveals the utter shallowness of his Americanism and the inade quacy of his Christian concept. "Intolerance against which our fa thers fought and founded this nation as a refuge is just the failure to rerpect unlikeners. Yet from this failure has issued the darkest crimes of history. Intolerance pressed the hemlock to the lips of Socrates and nailed tbe Son of God to the Cross. Intolerance lighted the fires of the Inquisition and drove the Pilgrims across the wintry sea. It belongs to no race and no people. "The proudest heritage of American children, your children and mine, is spiritual freedom, America's greatest gift to the world, trunscenriing all ber scientific and industrial achievements, ber dtmonitration to the world that men of unshackled minds can live to gether in unity and peace. "But here it it in this year of our Lord l'S-Z. What mean these whis pered hatreds, these muttered fears, these secret counsels, this preaching of credal intolerance? Why if these voices of division bad been raised during th war, we should have traced their origin to German propaganda. But here we are jut emerged from tbe greateft war of history, a war in which the American army, Catholic, Protcttait. Jew and Ger.tile, fought and d.ed to gether for the cause of human liberty. Today, with the roar of the ciinnon scarcely dead in tbe distance we are teaching these grouri to fear and dis trust each other. But let thi.se w ho sow tbe seeds of intolerance beware, becau.e intolerance is a spirit once un loosed no one can tell whence it wiii top. Of U.is be sure, althoug'i it b directed ag&i,nt rt!:gious l.berty it will net stop there, l.'avm sper.t itself againft Protettar.U r Catholics, it will then beg-.n to j rtscrihe a-J detrr'-:ne the bound of political liberty.
