Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
BOSTON, March 2S.-Despte the
flood of protests that has poured in
from all parts of the country against
the acceptance of the Rockefeller gift
the Prudential committee of the Ameri-
can board of commissioners of foreign
missions tonight voted to give remon-
strants leave to withdraw This Is
taken to be virtual acceptance of the
money.
1t is announced that one Of the rea-
CONS for the acceptance of the 800, 900
donated by the head of the Standard
Oil corporation is that already 500
of the money has been used by the
board.
| The Missionary Herald today contains
an acknowledgment of SAL, 500 and an
nounces that the amount has been ap-
portioned for by the American board
for colleges in Japan, India and Tur-
key.
DR.. Washington GLADDEN., moderator
of the Congregational church of CO.
lumbus, Ohio, filed with the Prudential
committee strong protest against the
acceptance of the gift. He makes a
scathing remonstrance and says the
colleges might better be closed than to
accept money from a man who has ex
torted it from the people.
The Congregationalst will tomorrow
print DIR. Gladden's protest, in which,
1t is said, he deals out to the oil mag
nate nothing short of fagellation.
In his protest DR.. GLADDEN. says:
1--WE have no right to take the
money. 1t does not belong to the man
who offers it. 1t belongs to the people
from whom it has been extorted.
TT is often assumed, 1 fear, that we
do not need to be overscrupulous about
money which we can use in doing
good That indifference is deadly.
"The good that is done by lowering
our ethical standards might. better be
left undone. Shall the young men and
women of the missionary colleges be
taught to regard Mr.. Rockefeller as a
great bAnefaetossa aThe seellege s.Tnight'
better be permanently closed"

BOARDS At WAR
OVER VACCINATION
CITY REFUSES TO TREAT ANY
BUT PAUPERS
Parents Are Too Proud to Declare
Themselves Paupers and Too
Poor to Pay Vaccina-
tion Charges

Diplomatic relations between the
board of health and the board of edu-
cation have been broken off. Hostili-
ties were begun yesterday, but 1t is
thought that board of arbitration,
composed of the mayor, the council,
several commissions and committees
and possibly the police force, might be
able to settle the difficulty.
Tuesday and Saturday are ''vaccina-
ton days. at the health Office and yes
terday the usual crowds of school chill
dren called at the office for the treat
ment Some of them were white, many
were black, others were brown; some
came in carriages with maids, most of
them walked, but all were turned away
unless they displayed documents signed
by the superintendent of the associated
charities stating that they were
paupers.
1t was the first day since the new
rule took effect. Some time ago the
board of health made ruling that no
longer would all corners be cared for
at the expense of the city, as the health
department was becoming more expen-
sive all the time.
1t was decided that no school children
should be treated uGless they held GER
tificates signed by their teachers, the
principal of the school they attended or
the associated charities, stating that
their parents were unable to pay for
the treatment. Suitable blanks were
printed and sent to superintendent of
Schools Foshay, but he has refused to
distribute them.
Must Be vaccinated
The law in Los Angeles makes vac
cination of school children compulsory,
those not being so treated not being
allowed to attend school. Heretofore
the vaccination by the city has been
free and yesterday the children fiocked
to the health Office. Assistant Health
officer Garcelon, as none of the chill
dren had the cards, sent them all away
advising them to go to the associated
charities. All of the children departed.
but only a few returned from the asso-
ciated charities with the necessary
cards.
The children turned away yesterday
will not be allowed to return to- school
until they have been vaccinated, and I'm
many cases their parents are unable
to pay for having 1t done, still they are
too proud to declare themselves paup-
ers.
The question has aroused great deal
of opposition among the teachers. who
declare that they are paid to teach and
not run commercial agency. They de-
cline to pass upon the financial standing
of the parents of their pupils. especially
on a question as delicate as this, and
also state that the parents of many
children who are unable to pay would
rather take the children out of school
than acknowledge themselves as pau
pers, when In reality they are not.

PROFIT IN MELONS
FOR THIS SEASON
Grants Pass Growers Plan to Or
Ranize Union to Market Their
500 Acres of Melons.

The Josephine county melon growers
are taking new courage this year, ex-
peoting that the Lewis and Clark fair
will bring such crowds to Portland
that(there will be an immense demand
foTmelons, as we'll as for all kinds OF
Euits and vegetables, and will ln-
crease their acreage to probably 300
acres. Melon growing promised at
one time to become one of the big in
dustries of Josephine county, but
high freight rates and the greed OF the
commission men, who absorbed all
the profits, so discouraged the grow
ers, that many of them gave up the
business aud put their land to other
crops.
There is movement now under
consideration and which will be
brought up at the farmers institute on
MAY l8, to form melon growers
union. or to join forces with the fruit
men, who are also planning to or
panize union, so that the growers
can do their own selling and eliminate
the commission mems profits. The
union would employ a selling agent
who would visit, before the season
opened, all the towns to be oovere d
aud arrange with retail dealers TO sup
ply them with melons When the
shipping season opened he would
notify these dealers that he would
be at their town on certain day
with a car OF melons He would I'LL
