BROADER.SPiRIT MUST Lessons Drawn From History and Present Day by McEl veen to Show Need Fairness. Business must realize that Its func tion is to be really and truly produc tive If it i to secure a full success and make Its influence for good felt, ac cording to the Ideas of Dr. W. T. Mc Elveen who made the address today at noon at the weekly luncheon of the Commercial Association which was held at Jolly's Inn. The principle Jiolds good particular ly in Its relation with labor, he de clared, and the failure of capital to pay heed o this fact blinds its own , eyes to 4lif Jt(uad 1f nf fairs. . He re counted his experience as chairman of tho board which recently concluded arbitrations between the building trades of Portland and the contractors. The efforts of capital to force la bor to accept the open shop wilt not be successful, he predicted. The con clusions of the speaker were drawn after a comprehensive review of the 'tendencies of civilization since the bc Hi lining of the Christian era. ' Opposed to LcaRue. Conservative practices should pre vail, he said. In the conduct of af fairs. The ultra conservative wor ships at the shrine of things "as they always have been," the ultra radicals are so far away from the heart of so ciety that they lend no aid to mankind, and It remains for the conservatves to blaze the way to better things. ' "The right philosophy of life for a man to have is to see that progress is mado, u little every day. a llttlo every month and year," he said. "We can not return to the old things, because not even the language of a few years ago Is the language of today." Tho covenant of the League of Na tions was severely criticized by the speaker who gave it as his own Idea that It was one of the biggest shams and pieces of hypocrisy ever foisted on the world. The world war was not fought to make the world safe for de mocracy, he declared, but for the con trol of oil fields and markets. France' and England are on the brink of war now. he said, duo to the fact that Brit ain is attempting to grab the Mesopo tamian oil fields and wheat lands. There is also a group in France now who are as "Prussian" ns the Prus sians ever were, and their efforts are not bent toward the preservation of peace but toward the acquisition ot wealth, he declared. s E CARS FOR BOYS PICNIC Fifteen additional cars, driven by either men or women, aro wanted by the Pendleton Rotary club for all day Tuesday when the" club will entertain local hoys withv a trip to Bingham Springs, Every boy between tho ages of ,ft I and 15 has an Invitation to go to the springs for the day and enjoy the eats. the swimming and nil the other fun hat will be arranged for their benefit.
