Mills, mine and railroads are now
aid to be abort 3,000,000 men on
account of lack of lumiuirutlon dur
ing tbe war. And 1,000,000 aioro, it
la predicted, will leave for Europe
as soon as they can- get purports.
Where doea this leave the country:
How operate the vast Industries that
depend on common labor? The IlK
uies Quoted above are as stated by
the Inter-Hacial Council. There is
possibly one loophole In these statis
tics, since labor shorlaKe hus been to
some extent made up by the employ
ment of women. Before the war also
there was a surplus of labor a good
deal of the time. Nevertheless there
Is a lack of willing hand workers.
Able bodied young men should be
discouraged from standing behind
counters and hundlng out shirts and
cereal packages and candy boxes.
They would better go on furms and
Into mills. There Ib a chance to ad
vance from these Jobs. I.et the girls
do the counter act. The feeling used
to prevail that It was more high
toned to go Into offices and stores,
than Into factories and mills where
you had to work at the bench. Hut
the factory employe with his good
nar would never swan jobs today
with the poorly compensated clerical
worker. Of course, young men
trained In American schools hate to
take the common Jobs of digging In
mines and 'ditches and pounding up
stone on the rnad. Uut Intelligence
ought to count In many Jobs hereto
fore considered unskilled. If alert
young fellows could put their wlta to
work and Increase production In oc
cupations heretofore monopolized hy
non-KnKllsh speaking workers, they
could raise these tanks'above their
present levol and make them worth
while. ? jill!

tax on gasoline. It bus also been dc ,
termlned that the automobile license
and the gasoline lax will net only
take care of 'the bo ld lusue, but will
also ciuale a surplus that can go
Into other channel. '1 liese facts were
dvterkilm d by figuring a normal in
crease In the number of auto li
censes for a -term or years wnea me
maximum could be considered as
reached. The aulo owner will profit
mi liv reason of lilKhway conmruc-
tlon; it Is proper that he should bear
the burden of Its building.

olher wood working manufacturing
plants of the nation will suiter on

workers of nil kinds throughout the
inner m-iilnsiila of .Michigan go on

hours pay. This Is the greatest tim
ber producing section lu the United
Slates, so that when tne striae
.reuks the paper shortage as wen
as all other products depending upon
wood will be greaily augmented.
Kiniilovers assert that they will close
down permanently rattier than meet
the demands. They are showing flgiil
hy shipping out more lumber than
has ever been known before. Great
lumber piles which have not been de-
pioted for fifty years today stana
nearly empty.
Many shortages of merchandise

ages of cars ure suid ilu total 80.000

Ight cars as a place in which to
store goods. Some roads fcot-ui to
make more effort than others to
round up their own cars and keep
them working. Others allow Iheui

Borne thrifty philosophers ask why
people plunt such tree as tho popu
lar shade varieties, which yield no
product at harvest but dead leaes.
By planting standard varieties of nut
trees along the highways, they would
get equally good shade, and the must
nutritious food furnished lu all na

got $8 a bushel for his black wal
nuts, and some of his trees hear 14
bushels each. The objection is made
that the boys of such a neighborhood
would get all tho nuts. The constant
clubbing of this foliage would keep
It thoroughly trimmed, possibly too
much so. However, any philan
thropist who sees fit to curry mil
this suggestion will find himself ex
ceedingly popular with the young
crowd. Also if he cultivates the

Union May Pi eunt
Wage Demands
Word was received here yesterday
from Portland to the effect that til.
trainmen's union is to demand nr.
increase of 20 per cent In wages and
that unloss the Increase Is fortbcom
ing by May la a general walkout U
to take place. The statement was
unconfirmed but purported to come
from official sources and was ac
cepted by local trainmen for Its face
value.
It is said that the demand will be
presented on the 28th of this month
and the companies will be given until
May 16 to comply, after which time
the men will quit work unless their
requests are granted. The report Is
said to follow a meeting of trainmen
at Portland at which place the men
were Informed of the action to be
taken by the union.
That the strike Is spreading and
is expected to reach Roseburg Is
shown in the fact that the local yards
are being patrolled by guards. It Is
evident that trouble Is expected, for
armed sentries are on duty at all
times of day and night. So far there
have been no developments locally
and the switchmen here are not ex
pected to loin the Insurgent walkout
but will wait for the union heads to
act.
