Who is at fault fori this shortage, T will not attempt to say. It is sufficient to sav such a condition exists and it must be met. tor that reason I wish to appeal to the patriotic sentiment of motor driv ers in every part of Oregon. "All unnecessary use of cars of every description should be discon tinued. Pleasure trips should be done away with and gasoline used only where it is a vital necessity. If this is not done, the whole commercial structure of the state will be seri ously affected, with its consequent reaction on every citizen. It is a matter of self-protection for all to see that every possible means be taken to assist in this conservation plan. For that reason I most earnestly urge that every motor vehicle owner and driver sees to it that gasoline is used only when an absolute demand requires. "If this appeal Is listened to, and the pleasure riding discontinued, I am certain it will be but a comparatively short time before such conservation will materially assist in bringing back our gasoline supply to some thing near a normal basis."

FIVE CARLOADS ARE OX WAY 8000 Gallons Arrive, but Mostly Given Tractors and Trucks. ROSEBURG, Or., June 5. (Special.) "With five carloads of gasoline on the way to this city, the gasoline shortage is expected to last for only a few more days. A carload con taining 8000 gallons arrived last night, but 6800 gallons were taken In two hours by tractors and trucks. The supply came just in time to save the necessity of halting highway improvements. B. L.

In this case the co-operatives have shown the way for peace between Italy and Russia.

A prime condition of good relations with England, he declared, is that England must cease to try interven tion of any kind in Russian atiairs. Concerning the Near fc-ast, . ne as serted Russia is pursuing the same policy as elsewhere, recognizing the right of all peoples to decide their form of government for themselves.

M. Chicherin says he believes Rus sian influence strong enough to check further persecution of Armenians, and that the people there may hope to prosper in peace and security. He says that if this prediction should be right the Armenian near east relief commission should have ample oppor tunity to become active in Armenia. "Armenia will be left in complete independence, so far as Russia is con cerned," he said. race With America Hoped For, Speaking of America, he said that while there hat! never been a formal state of war between Russia and the United States, he hoped good re la tions might be renewed by means of a formal peace.
