APPEAL FOR DEPENDENT CHILD
REN.

The Boys and Girls Aid Society
is making its annual appeal to the
schools and the public, for Thanks
giving contributions of money, food
supplies and clothing, For thirty
years the Society has been caring for
dependent and neglected children OF
Oregon, and it should have the gen
erous support of all citizens interest
ed in child welfare.
During the past year the Society
has cared for 491 children in its Re
ceiving home, and supervised over
500 children, whom it has placed in
private homes. Whereas the aim of
the Society is to place the child as
quickly as possible in suitable
home. the care of children at the
Receiving Home Is necessarily a
large factor the work Such care
includes scientific treatment, for over
so per cent of the children committed
are not placeable until physical de-
fects and ailments are remedied. I'm
til they are placeable the children
must live in the Receiving Home,
where everything is done to give
them the advantages of normal child
rem. 1t Is in furtherance of this work
that the cooperation of public spirit
ed people is sought.
All contributions should be ad-
dressed to The Boys and Girls Aid
Society, Portland, Oregon, and should
be shipped over the following Rail
roads, which carry all donations to
the Society free of charge between
Nov. 18th and Dec. 31st.

JUDGES CHARGE SCORED

Supreme Court Justice Kelly signed
an order In Brooklyn yesterday after
noon directing District Attorney James
G. Cropsey to show cause before Justice
Scudder on Monday why Edward NJ.
Grout, now in the Raymond street jail
under sentence for perjury. should not
get a certificate of reasonable doubt
pending appeal. Notice Of appeal was
filed In the County Clerks Office a few
hours before application for the order
was made.
These steps, the first taken to upset
the verdict rendered last Saturday night
in the Union Bank case. are set forth
in some twoscore pages of typlwritten
matter served on Mr.. Cropsey, together
with the order to show cruise. soon after
Justice Kelly had signed II. 1t is expected
that a hitch will occur on the return OF
the order as Justice Scudder was one
OF those involved in the "handpicked
Judges" conference.-the only one who
accepted the invitation TO testify before
the special investigating OF
the Brooklyn Bar Association. When
this phase of the matter was brought to
the District Attorneys attention, he
said
IL have nothing to say about that row"
q aving the impression that ne would
have much to say when the matter comes
up on Monday. Many hciieve, how aver.

he being scheduled to sit in Special Term
next week.
Justice Scudder came into the Grout

spect the minutes of the Grand Jury
which returned the perjury Indictment
Mr.. Cropsey took offence, not only at
the granting of the order. which he
claimed was unusual. but also at the
words of praise delivered from the bench
In which Justice Scudder complimented
Mr.. Grout on his record as a public
official and citizen.
In the application for the order coun-
sci for tirout cites thirty-fve alleged
grounds for reversal. These include
portions of Judge Lewis's charge to the
jury, the admission OF certain evidence
and the action of Judge Lewis in over
ruling more than 1000 objections offered
by stephen c. Baldwin. chief OF counsel
for Grout.
Strong exception is taken TO that por-
ton OF the Judges charge in which the
items OF the indictment are reviewed
IN uelalI, IN this particular the charge
is described as "incomplete and partial"
and this was notably true as II related
TO appellants own testimony on the
stand. SO appellant asserts.
A minor exception 10 the Judges
charge has to do with the personal con-
viction OF each individual juror. One
juror hung the jury for about forty
hours and then voted for conviction only
after the duty of the individual Juror
had been reoutlined by the Judge. Judge
Lewis charged that the Jurors should
consider the opinions Of their fellows.
but that each must be convinced of the
defendants gull, beyond a reasonable
doubt before voting for conviction. The
appellant holds that amplifcation Of the
charge when the jury returned for in
structions on that point was prejudicial
TO his case.

WASHINGTON, July s0.-The Internal
tional Association OF Maohinists and
other like organizations intend to force
strikes In practically every factory maxi
ing war munitions In the United States
IL such a course Is necessary to obtain
better wages and hours for the men.
This is indicated In a letter addressed
to President Gompers Of the American
Federation of Labor by Ernest Bohm.
corresponding secretary OF the Central
Federated Unions of Greater New York
and vicinity.
Mr.. Bohm's letter, in which ne called
on President Gompers to repudiate sug-
gestions he had made that German in
fluences were responsible for recent
strikes at ammunition factories, was
made public here to day, together with
Mr.. Gompers's reply.
In his letter to AR. Gompers. dated
July "a, MIR. Bohm says:
DEAR SIR AND BROTHER: BY direc-
ton OF this body ! submit It's reduest
for a declaration from you relative to
the newspaper reports in all or last
weeks papers alleging that officers OF
international unions received German
money to pul, off the strikes In Bridge
port, Conn, and elsewhere In ammuni-
ton factories.
The representatives OF the lnterna-
tional Association OF Machinists declare
emphatically that they will continue
down the line and organize or tie up
every such factory.
This body believes that you should
state just what you said to the press
representatives on the various occasions
you are quoted.
