Brigddier L. ". Simonson

Does the Salvation Army find the plan of not allowing it's officers to re- main long in a given place as, success full as the Methodists who limit their ministers to four years of service in placer" l asked Brigadier l.. M. simon son of the Salvation Army when l met him the other day shortly after he had arrived in Birmingham to take charge of the Dixie Division of which he is the head.
 Yes and mo-" replied the brigadier sometimes it seems a mistake for a man who has his work in an incomplete state and who for several years has planned and arranged to carry out cer- tain details to have to be removed to another territory before ne has ac- eomplished what he has set out to do yet on the other hand sometimes 1t IS best because his usefulness may have run the gamut."
 Brigadier slmonson, who succeeded Major David Main here IS q splendid specimen of manhood-big, strong lithe wholesome, with d heart for any care; marvellous capacity for work and a heart atUuned to a love of hu- manity and it's trials and its tribula-
 tions, all of which make up the ideal Salvation Army officer.
 Brigadier Simonson has been in the service of the Salvation Army since 1SS6-and he has practically been all over the country; from Maine to Mex ico-the Hawaiian Islands and even in lto Canada-so that his knowledge Of people and things is phenomenal. Few officers of the Salvation Army have ever come to Birmingham with a bigger work before them-a darger problem confronting them than Briga- fdier Simonson and yet he is quite un- dismayed by the great amount of work ahead of him and has even had the temerity to ask for more.
 Tn the reorganization of the Salva- tion Army said Brigader Simonson, effected by our commander, Miss Booth, and her brother Gen. Bramwell Booth, whom she met on her way to France when the general was returning from Australia to England, the old gull division becomes known as the Dixie d1- vision. It has been enlarged, the dl- vision now comprising the states of Ten i nessee, Alabama, Mississippi and part ! of Florida, and I have asked for Ken lucky to be added to the list. "I love work; 1 love to work day and night" said Brigadier Simonson, and

They seemed to like the Salvation Army. and their love of music made eur street services very appeal ing to them and they joined our bands and made excellent musicians Their ukeleles and other instruments were used both by the natives and by our musicians and I got to know many ot the natives well. I learned the lan- guage and used to sit on the mats and drink poi with them and I grew very close 70 their hearts and home life.

One operator said:
 Tt is like game of stud poker The union has played all it's other cards and lost out. Time came when the card in the hole had to be turned face up. That is what the union has done. It could do nothing else. It will not alter the situation in the slightest, with this ex- ception. if a general strike in Ala bama is ordered, probably as many as 2,000 men will quit work a few days to see which way the cat jumps.

NEED NO
FURTHER RATE RISE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-(A. P)-
American railroads are completing a
record year and have no intention Of
asking for another general rate in
crease, Thomas Dewitt Cuyler, chair
man of the Association Of Railway exc
cutives. deceived tonight, reviewing
the 1920 situation.
The year. Chairman Cuyler asserted,
saw American railroads placed again
under private operation and saw them
move a larger gross tonnaT7 than eve,
before and establish new rtce~5s in
transportation gotten out of ea0h car.
These records, he added, were not
achieved by the railroads alone bu,
with the aid of shippers and with "the
day and night, rain or shine work of
hundreds of thousands of employees.
IN referring to reports that the rail-
roads plan to ask for further rate in
ereases, the chairman said:
- know of no movement by the
railroads for a general increase IN
rates. nor do I expect any 1t is true
railroad companies are not receiving
from the increase anything like the
six per cent return needed, but every
effort will be made to accomplish this
by fnrther economies and efficiency"
Achievements of the railroads since
their return to private operation,
March ], were set forth as follows:

findings TO date have warranted clos
ing the doors of the institution. 1t is
probable that receivership will be
asked for shortly.
Business Grows Fast
Under the Etheridge's direction dur
ing the past three years the firm cf
Morris Brothers has undergone a rapid
expansion in the handling Of bonds.
The latest large transaction in which
the firm engaged was in the purchase
of bonds of Edmonton Alberta having
face value of s2.1S5, 900. Most of
these had been disposed of and against
them a large number Of interim cer-
tificates are outstanding, being held by
individual investors. Morris and his
attorneys were unable to state last
night the amount represented by out
standing interims.
Ethridge Leaves City
Ethridge left the city suddenly
Etheridge left the city suddenly
Thursday night. If developments war
rant it is probable that the state au-
thorities will seek to locate him and
return him to Portland.
Ethridge's sudden cessation of rela-
tons with the firm and his departure
mark a, crisis in his local business
career Of almost syclonic proportions.
Coming to Portland in 1917, as an
omploye of Morris Bros, through his
energy and ability he developed the
business on a large scale. His activi-
ties extended beyond the bond bust
ness. He was prominent in a variety
of civic endeavors and during the war
was a leading figure in the several
Liberty loan drives.
Confesses Past Record
His most recent outside activity was
his candidacy as delegate to the Inn
perial Shrine from Al Kader temple.
He conducted an elaborate and exten-
sive campaign for that honor.
Unpleasant rumor became current
that reflected on Etheridge's personal
record and the business house he rep
resented. The firm had enjoyed some
unpleasant notoriety some months ago
when the bond transactions he had
engaged in with the state treasurer
were brought to the attention of the
Marion county grand jury. The grand
Jury returned no indictment.
But the rumors concerning Ether
idge's earlier career career were of a
more ugly nature. They came to his
ears. on Saturday evening, December
I1s, occurred the Shrine election.
Mounted on a platform in the Armory,
Etheridge laid bare his record, He
confessed'to having served time in the
New Jersey penitentiary. He did not
withdraw his name. The vote was
taken, four delegates to be chosen. He
was fifth on the list.
The records of the New Jersey peni-
ltentiary at Trenton Show Etheridge
to have been sentenced ON october 21r
1905, to is months at hard labor in
that institution upon conviction for
false pretenses. on November p,
1907, he was sentenced to a second
term in the same institution for two
Years again for false pretenses.
Etheridge is a native of England
and became a naturalized American
citizen in Portland in July, 1918.
