BRITISH SHOW HUNS
HOW TO MAKE RAIDS
LONDON, Nov. 8. British air
raids upon German towns and mili
tary objectives during the last 12
months of the war were nearly 6
times as numerous as the total num
ber of air raids, made by Germany
over Great Britain during more than
four years of war. This comparison
Is shown by official figures, which
disclose that from October 1917, un
til the signing of the armistice the
British Royal Air Force made 709
bombing raids over German territory.
In all, more than 660 tons of bombs
were dropped on these raids. The
base of the Royal Air Force was at
Nancy. The average distance cover
ed by each squadron on a raid varied
from 120 to 160 miles. Under favor
able conditions flights of 200 miles
and more were made on many raids.

SALUTES TO WEAR
The wearing of a badge or button
by those who have been afflicted with
Influenza, is a recommendation of
Salem's new mayor to the city coun
cil, in the emergency ordinance which
has been paaed there. While this
has not yet become a law, it is being
considered by the officials there and
it is poslble that such a button may
ne required. The ordinance also pro
vides that the council shall have au
thority to close all schools, churches,
theatres, etc., and limit the time
people may linger at the stores, de
pots and other places.

NO CONVALESCENT
HOSPITAL HERE
Due to the signing of the armis
tice iplans for the establishment of
a convalescent hospital at Roseburg
have been abandoned, according to a
telegram received) this afternoon from
United States Senator McNary. Dur
ing the war local business men very
successfully undertook to have a hos
pital established here and the plan
would doubtless have been accepted
had not the armistice been signed.
The telegram received is as follows:
"WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 8. J.
E. McClintock. president of Roseburg
Commercial Club: Regret to advise
office c the surgeon general refuses
to grant permission for the estab
lishment of a convalescent hospital
at Roseburg, Oregon, due-to the
signing of the armistice, which makes
such hospital unnecessary under the
circumstances. Letter follows.
