Pep Promulgated At Legion Meeting At the regular bi-monthly meeting of the local post of the American Le- j less now than they were during the Eight local doctors who protested against the contract between the State Industrial Accident Commission and the Doctors Mount of this city for medical service to two local paper mills, did not appear at the hearing which was held by the commission at 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon. The doctors two weeks ago entered a protest against the contract system and asked that a hearing be held. The commission set the date fo rthe hear ing and the doctors, last Wednesday, directed a letter to the commission asking that the hearing be called off. as they believed that evidence would not be heard with an impartial mind on the part of the commissioners. SYSTEM SCORED The complaint of the doctors, who are Ross Eaton, M.C. Strickland, W. E. Hempstead, W. H. Meisner. A. H. Huycke, C. A. Stuart, O. A. Welsh and G.' E. Stuart, is based upon' the tact that about a year ago the' commission changed from the elective fee system to a contract system. Under the old method, any employee injured in tho mills could go to any doctor in the city he choose, and receive the benefits of the state industrial protection, and the commission would pay the doc tor's fee. Bcause, according to the commission, the local doctors, with the exception of the Mounts, failed to cooperate along certain requested lines, the method was changed and the Mounts paid a flat salary for do ing all of the medical work, attendant upon injuries to the employees in the mills. In protesting against the holding of the hearing, the doctors stated that they did not feel that the commission would reverse is own action, and thai no employees of the mills could tes tify without .fear of losing their posi tions, due to the fact that the "em ployers have caused a feeling to grow up that if any of their employees appear-in opposition to the present sys tem they will lose their positions in the mills." MEN NOT COERCED This latter allegation was denied by j W. P. Hawley, representing the Haw- j ley Pulp and Paper company and A. Banlsus, of the Crown-Willamette pa per company, who attended the hear ing, at which the matter was informal ly discussd. Will T. Kirk and Wil liam A. Marshall, members of the com mission were present to hear any pro tests against the rresent system. None, however, as the protesting doc tors were not present, were made. Mr. Kirk stated that he belived that the contract system resulted iu tut saving of money and that it had work ed far more satisfactorily than the fee system, due to the fact that he had found the other doctors In the city un willing to cooperate with the nurse who had been installed in the Crown Willamette Mill- W. P. Hawley pointed out that the number of accidents in the mills were and above board, and they will con tinue to be so. The Commission is con cerned in two things, namely, in pro viding the best possible service for men who are injured wane under the protection of the Workmens' Compe;i-f--ation Law, and in holding down fhe cost of such service to a reasonable basis.

HEARING ASKED Mr. Kirk stated for the commission that while the local doctors who re quested the hearing had been reported lo have entered a protest against the holding of it at this time, no letter to this affect had been received by the commissioners before they left Salem at 7 o'clock Thursday morning.

The Washington Edi torial Association, recently resolve'i that no foreign advertising should b3 taken at less than twenty per cent dis count from regular rates. No self-re specting newspaper would make great er reduction to outsiders, and The oth.r kind will not be heeded. The coun try ,vith the most country newspapers is that they hold their space too cheap. The; will sell next to nothing any space they have, or all their space, re gardless of the right of their readers to g?t what they pay f'. get it into readable shape. Such papers look upon the electrotyped foreign adver tisements as saving just so much com position, and they will run them by Jr.s year for a few cents an inch. The hcHnj advertised is the main stay of a good newspaper and in the distribution 'of favors he should come, in for. the best share. Foreign advertising is a mere i ce'dent in the ;,iHino-a anyway.

V iAVVil'yiilTi''i-a.iUfttitMiii GET0UTANDGET UNDER Water in Carburetor. One of the causes of an engine missing explosion, which is some times very mysterious, is water in the carburetor. If you have tried all other causes of skipping, try draining the carburetor. If some of the drainage is caught in the hand, the water will be repelled by the gasorlne and be collect ed in globules. Carburetor Adjustments. A great many car owners make thi-. mistake of adjusting the carburetor when the engine is cool. ;Now it is always best to make adjustments to the motor after it has been run . long enough to get thoroughly warmed through, and this applies, equally to the valve tappets, etc It is quite prob able that Ihe cold motor may operate very well on certain adjustments that will not agree at all with the hot engine. When Metor Misses If a motor persists in missing whej only a light load is being carried, bo fore resorting to adjustment of the carburetor tc making spark gap a little wider, presuming, of course, that the magneto is being used. On the other hand, if the motor misses when there is .a heavy load on board, it may possibly be- obviated by closing the spark gap slightly.
