J. ST|TT WILSON
PLEASES AUDIENCE
FORMER MAYOR OF BERKELEY
DELIVERED INSTRUCTIVE AID
DRESS SUNDAY NIGHT

At the university auditorium Sum
day evening fair sized audience at
tended to hear the lecture by the
Honorable J. Stitt Wilson, who spoke
on Christian Social Democracy.
Mr.. Wilson took as his platform
for the true democracy, three pas
sages of the Bible: first, Johns Wis
ion of the future when there will be
no pain and no death; second, Jesus
mission in the world, to heal the brok
en-hearted, to liberate the captives;
and last at the Judgment, "Inasmuch
as We have done it unto one of the
least of these my brethren, ye have
done it unto me-" All nations have
fallen when they forgot the value of
human beings; when the poor have
been oppressed, so this message of
true democracy is being carried to
the students and educators, as we'll
as all citizens, that our nation may
rise to the occasion at this opportune
time in the worlds history of making
the right choice of that will endure.
Paganism has no respect for hu-
man beings, no regard for the rights
of human beings, contempt for fell
low man and oppressed them when
possible. -
True democracy will do just the
opposite of these and only true dem
ocracy can stand the test of time.
Mr. Wilson was an engaging speak
er, holding the attention of the audi
ence by his logical grasp of great
ideas and his forceful manner of
their presentation.
1t is to be regretted that Moscow
could not have had the full series of
his lectures. He spoke this morn
ing at II o'clock to the students OF
the university and will deliver four
lectures in Pullman.

rector Of st. Marks Episcopal church
who advocated moderation in dealing
with the Sunday closing contest in
Moscow, the Rev. Harry E. Marshal,
an evangelist who is holding series

charged that Rev. Mr.. Bridge had
"taken a slap" at the schools, IN his
communication published in Satur-
days Star-Mirror.
The sacred concert given in the
high school auditorium Sunday after
noon was well attended and greatly
enioyed. The splendid program,
published in Saturdays Star-Mirror,
was rendered and pleased the big
audience. This concert was the final
work of the Young Peoples League
which has been in session in Moscow
since Friday forenoon. Before ad-
iournment the league passed the fol-
lowing resolution and asked that they
be published:

BURTON |. FRENCH
HAS STARTED EAST
HAD TO LEAVE
MOSCOW HURRIEDLY BECAUSE
OF EXTRA SESSION

Congressman Burton L. French left
last evening for Washington to at
tend the special session of congress
which has been called to meet on May
18th. He has just completed tour
of northern Idaho in behalf of the
Victory Loan and had delivered fif-
of his trip to the war zone in Eu-
rope.
''T was satisfied that the congress
would be called into extra session, but
I had supposed it would be con-
vened about June 1st. | am greatly
disappointed in not having at least
another week or so in Moscow before
going back And what is worse no
one can tell how long we shall be
held in session.
"The immediate reason for con-
vening congress is to provide appro-
priations for the government for the
coming year. Yet there are important
problems that must be met at once.
What shall we do with the railroads
What shall we do to provide for re-
turning soldiers? Shall the govern
ment undertake reclamation of arid
ldQOS, Lie uIdl1dSC VI swamp lohuos
further cooperation in clearing cut
over timber lands, improvement of
highways and rivers, public improve
ments that are important and that
will help to take up the slack in
labor and tide things over till normal
conditions may come again? These
are some of the problems. Of course
the senate must consider the treaty
the war;
Congressman French has been Sc
lected by the committee on commit
tees for a place on the appropriations
committee of the house. Speaking OF
his assignment Mr. French said:
Naturally l am very proud to be
chosen for the committee on appro-
priations. 1t is the realization of an
ambition that I have long held. And
| think I understand the Importance
Of the work ahead. Of course ex-
penses will be heavy. They must be
heavy for number Of years. But |
want to say | shall make it my bust
ness to try to keep the lid on and to
hold down expenses of the govern
ment to, the lowest figure consistent
with meeting the country's needs.

Moscow never falls.
The university town has done her
duty
She will not be branded as a
Stacker" town.
Latah county is "Over the Top"
with some to spare.
This is the joyous news The Star
Mirror carries to its hundreds of read
ers tonight. While the exact figures
are not known it is certain that Mos
COW has been saved from disgrace and
that the finger of scorn will not be
pointed at the town and county that
are the home of the states greatest
educational institution, for they have
done nobly.
Reports are coming in slowly from
other place, but it is known that, out
side of Moscow, enough had been
pledged Saturday night to take the
county's quota if Moscow did her
duty. Some of our patriotic business
men, the men who have made Moscow
what she is, the best town in north
ern Idaho, pledged themselves to take
all that was necessary to put the town
over and the pledges are in the banks.
1t may be several days before the
figures are available for the entire
county. 1t will probably be We'd
nesday or Thursday before the lists
are tabulated and ready for publica-
ton, but they will show that Latah
county took $610,000 and Moscow took
half of this sum.
