EAST MORE CONCERNED
OVER WAR THAN WEST
J. Frederick Thorne, on Return,
Speaks of War Attitudes;
Pro-Allies Confident.
The great interest which the people
of the east take in the European war,
the seeming propriety of the eastern
states, and the confidence shown by the
French, Belgians, and Russians on the
outcome of the great war, were some of
the things which impressed J. Frederick
Thorne during his recent trip east.
The people of the west take a “bird’s
eye view’’ of the war in Europe which .it
is hard for the easterners to understand.
The people in the east take a very deep
interest in the war and follow it much
more closely than those on this coast
said Mr. Thorne.
In the east, money is being spent very
freely at the theatres, places of amuse
ment, and for luxuries. It is not real
prosperity, however the speaker said,
but is due to the “war orders.” The fac
tory owners are having trouble with their
employees and strikes are frequent oc
currences. Wages in the industries af
fected by the war have risen by leaps
and bounds. Mr. Thorne was told by one
factory owner that a first class machinist
who had been earning about forty dollars
a week before the war is earning a hun
dred dollars a week at the present time.
There is much competition between the
owners to secure men.
Mr. Thorne was astonished by the
calm, cool confidence shown by the
French, Belgians and Russians with
whom he spoke. Germans that he talked
with would tell him that Germany would
win because of this or that fact. The peo
ple of the allies on the otheT hand said
very little but they were confident that
they would win in the end. If he would
say to them, look at this or that event,
they would admit that it was true but
would aver that they would win in the
end, whether it be one year, two years,
or five years. At first Mr. Thorne
thought that they spoke this way to con
ceal their real feelings but he says he
was finally convinced that they were sin
cere and very much in earnest.

Moulton has consented to be track
father of the Stanford team this year.
Moulton was coach at Stanford for 10
years, going there in 1902 and resigning
in 1912. During that time he turned out
six winning teams. He replaces E. P.
Campbell.
The annual dual meet between Stan
ford and the University of California has
been slated for April 15, providing the
regetta with Washington does not inter
fere. The meet will be held in Palo
Alto.
Bert Peacock looms up as the most
promising sprinter at present, but this is
early in the game. Westerfield or Har
graves might spring a surprise before the
Tunning is over.
Sam Cook, who went to Montana last
fall, left a big hole among the weight
men. An opening was also left in the dis
cus when “Heiny” Heidenreich went to
O. A. C. Callison, Montieth and Miller
are likely aspirants for the weights but
they lack experience.
Montieth will be the rubber for the
track men again this season. “Monty”
ought to develop a strong arm extracting
pore muscles from Bill’s speed merchants,
thus getting the advantage over the
other entries for the weights.
Stenstrom, University of Washingtol
sprinter, seems to have the edge in the
dashes this year. He cleaned up things in
the northwest meet last year and lateT
made a showing in the all-western meet
at San Francisco. Stenstrom has a record
of 9 4-5 in the hundred—and he is only
a sophomore.
Wellborn Mayock of the University of
California is some trainer. He fasted for
seven days and Teduced 10 pounds. May

Y. W. C. A. to Give $1500.
The Y. W. C. A. plans to give $1500
to the women’s memorial building fund,
according to Miss Mary Gillies, secretary.
The Bungalow, the present headquarters
of the association is owned without debt
and is valued at approximately $9500.
After the new building is erected, the
Y. W. C. A. will have its headquarters
there. The Bungalow will then be sold
and $1500 of the proceeds will be donated
to the memorial structure. In addition
to this, the Y. W. C. A. is planning to
furnish its own rooms.
SPANISH RAISED
Spanish courses at Whitman college
have been placed on a par with French
and German and are to be enlarged soon.
Regular five-hour courses are to be sub
stituted for the present three-hour sys
tem. This action was taken as a result
of a nation-wide interest in Spanish
(vhich has recently spread.

COMMERCE DEPARTMENT
ANALYZES EGG MARKET
Forty Page Pamphlet on the Chinese Egg
Situation is Beady for Distribution.
Throughout State
A forty page bulletin on the Chinese
situation has just been issued by the de
partment of commercial and industrial
service of the University.
The bulletin tells of the conditions of
egg production in China, the competition
in Pacific coast markets: the prices, im
ports and exports, and the laws of Ore
gon and California governing the sale of
imported eggs.
"Oregon eggs not only cannot compete
with Chinese eggs in the world market,
but under the present tariff law will be
unable to hold their trade in even their
own market," says the bulletin.
"The importation of eggs and egg pro
ducts has not only attained tremendous
porportions, but is increasing at an
alarming rate.”
The bulletin says that several of the
largest bakers’ supply houses in the Unit
ed States cohtemplate erecting plants in
China to Ynanufacture dried and dessicat
ed eggs. One plant has already been es
tablished at Hankow and another is to
be erected at Shanghai with a branch
at Tientsin.
Three thousand copies of the bulletin
have been edited and will be sent to poul
try men, bakers, newspapers and com
merce men throughout the state and to
ethers upon request.

WASHINGTON REFUSES
TO PLAY STATE COLLEGE
oilman's Offer to Bar Freshmen
Doesn't Overbalance Objections
to New Schedule.
i University of Washington, Feb. 9.—
Washington -will not meet State College
in football next fall, despite the offer of
the Pullman officials to bar freshmen
in that one game and to get Whitman to
consent to a change of date in order to
open the university’s schedule to them.
The board of control has decided
against a game with the Aggies, first,
because their offer to eliminate the first
year men is not a mark of acknow
ledgement of the principle that they
ought to be ousted, and, second, be
cause the suggested change in the sched
ule would force the local eleven to take
three long trips in four weeks, which
would he ruinous to the scholarship
standing of the athletes.
Pullman refused to consider the elim
ination of freshmen from intercollegiate
athletics when the conference officials
considered the question at Portland, last
fall.
C. W. Vande Veer, director of ath
letics here years ago, and later at the
University of Idaho, has been engaged to
epoch the track men this spring.
