feverish military activity late today,
leading to a belief that the long-expected
big battle was about to begin,
ending a situation which had become
a shifting game of checkmate.
Infantry columns marched here and
there and cavalry and artillery units
dashed about. Columns of artillery
lined the roadways, well-groomed
horses hitched to the big guns,
Groups of officers rode ahead of the
artillery units and foot soldiers
tramped behind the pieces.
IleadqunrtcrH Hllent
Motorcycles skidded through the
cavalry and Infantry formations, al
though no one seemed to know
where they were1 going. Headquar
ters officials kept a close-mouthed
silence and one's observation was
hampered everywhere by sentries
who frowned on prying eyes.
Long trains of brown army trucks
moved, up and down the roads from
the Japanes wharves, , completing
the unloading of military supplies
from tho transport ships In the river.

a machine gun dashed through the
milling traffic.

Japanese aviators warmed them
selves around fires at the newly-built
airdrome at tho settlement limits.
Mechanics "tuned up" tho planes and
others filled tho bomb racks with
bombs.
At the some time Russian and Chi
nese laborers continued leveling the
new runways of the field. Around
the edges of the airdrome 30 planes
glistened in the brilliant sunBhlne.
Some of them were bombers and
some pursuit planes. : All were a
bright metallic color, with flaming
red tallr- and they bore the rlBlng sun
emblem of Japan on their Bides. .
No planes had taken off from the
field during the day but everything
was ready. The field Is now a com
plete unit. Tho atmosphere of the
placo Indicated that something was
about to happen.
I.lttlo Firing Today
Except for a brief artillery duel
over Chapel earlier In tho day in
which Chinese and Japanese guns
boomed rather harmlessly at each
other, there was little firing during
tho day.
. General Tsal Tlng-Kai, tho dapper,
brilliant young poot-commandor of
the Chinese forces, shifted his 60,000
troops with surprising, rapidity appar
ently to block Japancso moves. Con
tinual shifting was In progress within
the Japaneso lines, alBO, and each
.side apparently sought to counteract

other camp.
Both sides prepared for something,
a visit to the positions of each indi

Just what to expect.

from flagpoles over buildings, in
courtyards, over doorwayB and from
most automobiles, trucks, carriages

None of tho new commissioners

might mako a statement today.

Oregon taxpayers equalization and

a prominent Eugene merchant and
Aldrlch is editor and co-publisher

Tho resignations of Ainsworth and
Hanlcy were attributed to Spauld

which Haniey recently termed a "pro
gram of rows and confusion."
HIMIUMNO NOT DIHOJUJNTLHI)
SALEM, Feb. lfl (ff) Charles K.
Spauldlng, who was removed from
tho state highway commission when
Governor Julius h. Meier announced
a new organization, said this morn
ing he still "could sco no reason why
ho should have been dismissed when
all through tho year his every movo
hod tho support of tho governor."
"My conscience is absolutely clear
and I feel I have dono a good Job
on tho commission. My work will
bear fruit, and what I have started
will bo carried through. My solo
object In accepting tho appointment
to tho commission a year ago was to
placo the affairs of tho department
on a business basis, and that Is what
I have strlvcd to do. All through the
year Governor Meier has several times
told mo ho was In favor of my every
; move, and never once did I receive
anything but commendation from
him."
Spauldlng mado It plain that he
was not disgruntled, and that he
would contlnuo to advocate business
principles In tho conduct of state
government,
"Tho first authentic Information, I
received Indicating that there was to
bo a chango In tho personnel of tho
highway commission came Saturday,
when Governor Meier called me by
long distance and asked if I would
resign. . Tho governor Informed mo
that my retention as a member of
tho commission would causo him con
siderable embarrassment. I told Gov
ernor Meier that I would not re
sign, and I remained true to my
word."
Spauldlng In discussing tho matter,
said ho was preparing a statement
which ho would release later today.
In this statement, ho said, will be
listed soma of the accomplishments
of tho commission during tho past
yeor, and will show why "I om not
shamed of my work."
"Tho peoplo of Oregon apparently
approved of my economy program,"
I Spauldlng said as ho pointed to a
- letter file which ho said contalnod
I mora than two thousand indorse
, mcuts received from taxpayers and
business men representing all sections
of tho stato. "Theso letters indi
cate what tho peoplo of Oregon
thought of my economy program."
Deluged With Cull
Spauldlng said he was deluged with
tolcphono calls all night long. Tho
Salem chamber of commorco and
numerous other local organizations
previously had sent telegrams to
Governor Meier urging that ho be re
tained as a member of the commis
sion. "One ray of sunshine In the con
troversy," Spauldlng added, "was tho
announcement that J. C. Ainsworth
and William Himloy also arc no longer
on the highway commission."
Hundreds of letters and telegrams
wore received at tho executive de
partment Monday, endorsing various
persons for tho offlco of highway
commissioner. Tho largest number
of theso letters and telegrams favored
the appointment of A. C. Mursters,
Roseburg banker, and Prank Jenkins,
co-publisher of newspapers at Rose
burg, Med ford and Klomath Palls.
Other Indorsements mentioned tho
names of T. A. Llvceley, Salem and
Joe Roman, Astoria.
