SPOKANE BANKER !
TALKS TO CITIZENS
George Greenwood, Cashier of Old
National Hank, Tells Plans of
< Constitutional Government
League in Combating
I. W. W.
Check the disease, then remove
cause, was the very acceptable doc
trine proposed by George Green
wood, cashier of the Old National:
bank, Spokane, in discussing the I.
\Y. W. problem before the chamber
of commerce Tuesday noon. Mr.
Greenwood outlined the plans of the
Constitutional Government League,
recently organized in Spokane, for j
dealing with the I. W. W. situation.
The league proposes to establish lo- j
cals in all communities where the
Heed for their services is felt and
send out qualified speakers to pre-!
sent to the people the problems at-1
tending the situation, dealing with
both sides of the question. 'We
propose to fight the I. W. W. prop- i
aganda not by force but with public
opinion." said Mr. Greenwood, "and
should ultimately make sure that
the workman does not have the
grievances which he now contends
create the demand for the I. W. W.
organization and its activities."
Mr. Greenwood was a member of
a board recently named in Spokane
to peruse a large number of pieces j
of 1. W. W. literature, and branded
the pamphlets as seditious, disloyal
and anarchistic in the extreme. He
quoted extractsfrom a number of
the publications, some of which told
the members how to injure fruit as,
it was picked from the trees, how to
drive spikes in fallen timber, and
outlined divers other means of in
juring the employer.

THE PUIjIjMAX HERALD
RETURNED SOLDIERS
ENJOY DANCE
The dance given last Friday even
ing In the K. of P. hill by the May
nard-Price post. American Legion,
was a social even! of more than ordi
nary importance to the people of
Pullman and college students alike.
It was the first exclusively Ameri
can Legion affair that the ladies
have bet eligible for and all join in
voting it a hugs success.
The hall was decorated in typical
soldier style. The outstanding feat
ure was th • national colors, with
those of the allies giving a pleasing
variety in the color effect.
At one end of the hall a refresh
men! booth decorated to resemble a
Red Cross canteen furnished a clue
as to where the average service
man's mind wanders when goodies
are mentioned. Two dainty little
Red Cross ladies served punch to the
thirsty dancers.
At the other end of the hall a
trophy table was loaded with some
of the things the boys faced on the
other side of the pond. A piece Of
German schrapnel, nearly as long as
the "88" shell from which it came
and believed to be the largest piece
in the country, was of special in
terest.
At 9:00 o'clock a receiving line,
headed by Post Commander Cannon
and Mrs. Cannon, Vice Commander
McMahon and Mrs. McMahon. chap
eroning couples, was formed. As
each couple passed down the receiv
ing line they fell in at the end and
in this way everybody met every
body else.
The presence of the three French
girls now attending college lent an
overseas air to the occasion.
Trimble's orchestra furnished the
music, to which the guests danced
until 11:30.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
The United Presbyterian church
has enjoyed many blessings this fall.
The congregations have been large
and earnest and the sermons inspir
ing. The finances of the church are
in excellent shape. The women's
missionary society has more than
doubled Its contributions to missions
and the monthly programs are ev
cellent. The recent thank-offering
amounted to $159 and in addition
the women presented to Mrs. Spald
ing a life membership in the Gen
eral Missionary society (value 125),
making a total of $184. The church
is represented at Spokane at the in
terchui-ch conference^ by the pastor
and expects to enter heartily into
this movement as it already has into
the New Era movement, which is
the name of the wonderful program
outlined for the denomination.
Mention should be made of the
splendid work of the chorus. They
have added much to the beauty and
uplift of the services. On account
of the absence from the city of some
of the members during the holidays,
the Christmas music will be given
on December 14. The program will
be given next week. The music for
the morning service on December 7
includes an anthem. "Come Unto
Me.' 'by the choir and a duet, "Love
Divine (Stainer) by Miss Springer
and Mr. Cole.

COMMUNITY PLAN
PURGED BY KREAGER
A Large Audience Heard Forceful
Address Before tin* Open Forssm
Last Sunday Evening
A large audience attended the
meeting of the Open Forum last Sun
day evening and he.'rd a forceful ad
dress by Prof. F. O. Kreager on "A
Community Plan for Pullman." The
speaker began by asserting that the
spirit of American democracy origi
nated and was fostered in the New
England town meetings. The condi
tions prevailing in a newly settled
country brought about a community
of interests. This community spirit
was maintained as long as the peo
ple continued to emigrate to and
open up new sections of the country.
Every man had to do his part and
co-operate with his fellow settlers
for the good of all. The perpetua
tion of democracy is dependent up
on the maintenance of community
spirit.
The speaker urged that the •two
great advantages on which this com
munity must rely for its future
growth are its farming industry and
the State College. This being the
case, the people should make a study
of these two advantages in order to
make the most of them. He advo
cated taking a survey of the agri
cultural resources and rural condi
tions of the country tributary to
Pullman, in order to determine in
what ways they can be developed
and improved. He asserted that the
community is not fully utilizing the
advantages offered by the State Col
lege, as evidenced by the failure to
develop good community singing, to
improve the style of local. archi
tecture, and to stimulate the growth
of the student body by providing
more rooming accommodations. He
commended the work of the cham
ber of commerce and of the local
churches and lodges, but maintained
that a bigger and broader organiza
tion than any of them is needed to
meet the. needs of the whole com
munity and to study all the problems
affecting its welfare. He urged the
importance of finding out just how
many of the farmers tributary to
Pullman do their trading here and,
if any of them do their buying else
where, why they do it?
At the meeting next Sunday even
ing Prof. Lewis of the University of
Idaho will discuss some phases of
taxation.
WELCH SIGNS UP

tana to visit friends for a few days

until next fall in Pennsylvania,
where he has many friends. He may

Students and friends of the col
lege are highly pleased at the de,
sion of Coach Welch to return next
year.

Hamper Completion of .Me
< roskey Mall
The new girlS' dormitory, which
is in the process of construction,
will not he completed by the first
of February, according to contract,
owing to the difficulty in obtaining
labor and materials.
Although hampered by conditions
the work has been pressed all fall,
and had not cold weather shut in
at an early date the second story
would have been completed accord
ing to the agreement. Cold and a
heavy fall of snow, however, have
halted the work, with only the first
floor complete. The foundation and
all concrete work on the first floor
have been finished, however, and
this part of the building will suffice
to shelter workmen engaged in as
sembling window and door frames.
If the weather permits concrete
work will be resumed, and as much
of that portion of the building as
is possible will be finished before
spring. The various materials are be
ing hauled, and assembled, in order
that all may be in readiness for the
resumption of work when the
weather permits.
Although the building will not be
ready for use next semester as was
planned, it will be ready for occupa
tion with the opening of school next
fall.

will support the southern school but
there will be some opposition met
