General Von Hindenberg, now chief
of the German General Staff, when
interviewed today, said: "The Rou
manians still retreat, and their day
of reckoning is near. We welcomed
their war entrance. The French
have shown great tenacity, but their
present fighting methods will exter
minate the lives of all, making their
tenacity useless. The British are to

TRADING STAMP LAW
IS AGAIN EFFECTIVE;
INJUNCTION DISSOLVED
The trading stamp law, providing
that money taken in on any kind of
a trading stamp scheme In connec
tion with sales Is liable to a. tax of
5 per cent, once more Is operative,
says the Oregoninn. Federal Judge
Wolverton yesterday morning signed
a stipulated decree dissolving the in
junction he Issued In October, 1915,
holding up the operation of the law.
The decree of the Judge provides
that no. back taxes can be collected
for any money taken in previous lo
the signing of the decree yesterday.
The Injunction dissovled yester
day was taken in the case of Attor
ney General Brown and District At
torney Evans against L. I. Cottrell
and others. Tills action was affili
ated, with the original suit brought
by Cottrell and others against the
riiierry & Hutchinson Company to
prevent the trading stamp people I
from violating their contract because
of the law.
It is understood that county and
state prosecutors do not intend to
take any action for the enforcing of
the law until after the Legislature
meets and has had an opportunity to
express Its revised opinion upon the
provisions of the statute. Investiga
tions are said to have revealed the
fact that many merchants would be
ruined by a strict enforcement of the
law.
