Salem Hospital Starts Suit
To Clear Title To Property

any Of these conditions should be vio-
lated, the land should revert to the
Oregon Children s Aid Society.
1t is alleged by the Salem Hospital
in its complaint that the conditions
of the deed were lived up to until the
state of Oregon condemned 6.13 acres
of the 10 acre tract, including the hos
pital building.
That the state secured this part Of tho
10 acres through suit of condemnation
brought in the circuit court April IL,
1915, and that the jury awarded the
hospital $4,000 damages for the 6.1s
acres and building.
That by reason Of this decree of court,
the hospital is deprived of 6.l3 acres
together with the hospital building and
that it is now obliged to use the Nc
Kinley school. That the hospital can
not use the remainder of the 10 acres
in it's present condition and that it is
necessary to erect suitable buildings.
Several years ago an effort was made
to secure funds to erect a building for
the hospital, ono that would reflect
credit on the capital city, but due to
the fact that the hospital did not have
a clear title to its property, a number
who were willing to donate generously
withheld their offerings. The campaign
for funds failed. Then with the war
coming on, no further efforts were
made.
The trustees of the Oregon Children Is
Aid society are Mrs. William Brown
Mrs. George G. Bingham, Mrs. Charles
Weller, Mrs. Kirk, Mrs. E. B. LAHORE and
Mrs. Judge Murphy of Portland. Eff
forts have been made from time to time
to secure quit claim deed from these
| trustees, but no unanimous action was
, ever taken, although at one time it was
thought majority were willing TO quit
! claim.
| AS the matter now stands, the Salem
Hospital corporation is taking the same
course that the state did when it wanted
| a clear title to part of the original 10
aeres--that Of bringing condemnation
proceedings and placing value on the
property SO condemned.
With clear title, it is thought thai
within a few months an effort will be
made to secure funds for the erection OF
a hospital that will be a credit to Sa'
lem. ssi.ss

In order to clear title to
the 3.S7 acres now owned by the
Salem hospital, charitable corpora.
tion, suit has been brought against the
Oregon Children S Aid Society which
originally become owner of the l0-acre
tract formerly owned by the hospital.
In asking for decree of the court,
whereby the Salem hospital may own
it's property without cloud on the
title, the complaint states that in or
der to obtain funds from the public, II
will be necessary to condemn the in
terests in the tract of the Oregon
Children S Aid Society, that it may
become owners in fee simple.

make an assessment of damages that
will result to the Oregon Children g
Aid Society by reason of the condem-
nation of the 3.S7 acres, and that up
on payment of this sum, the Salem
hospital be declared owner of the tract
in fee simple, with no restrictions.
1t is also claimed by the Salem
hospital corporation that it has NO
financial resources to build and that
it cannot raise money on its tract near
the state hospital as long as there is
a cloud on the title.
In filing suit, the Salem Hospital
alleges that when it was organized the
Oregon Children's Aid Society sold to
the hospital ten acre tract, being a
part Of what was known as Glen Oak
Farm, owned by Josiah L. Parrish and
wife.
That the deed of conveyance impos
ed on the Salem hospital these condi

COLONIES FOR AMERICA?

What to do with the German colonies is a
big problem, but it will not be solved by the dis
cussiOn heard occasionally of late, of turning
some or all of them over to the United States to
rule Somehow we Americans do not like that
word rule" 1t is one Of the things we set out
to abolish, in its application to peoples and ma
tons. We have built a great nation on the prin-
ciplc that it could rule itself and in some way or
another that is how we want the colonies of
Germany and the rest Of the world to be gov
erned. If an amalgamaton of colonies with the
notkerland is possible, as in the British empire.
to give self government, there is not likely to be
objection from America But as soon as there
appears a likelihood of imperialstc doctrines
being set UP over island and continental posses
sons Of European countries, particularly over
he former German possessions, then will come
the kick from the United States.
Colonies held as they have heretofore been
held by Germany mean a great army and E
great navy to defend them They mean con-
slant rumors Of wars and perpetual jingoism
at home Without popular representation il
government there will continue to creep up in
surrectons and civil discords that will effectu-
ally Danish peace.
The peace councils must work out some other
means of meeting the American idea Of colonial
settlement than an effort to flatter us by sug
gesting the American rule in the lands of the
seven seas
