Ummm aa ! bells eede4.
Although Russia has placed eatenslve
war orders In th s country, she haa re
ceived from the I'n.trd States little In
the way of guns or shells. The ship
ment to Kul from rS'-ific ports
.ae consisted principally of surplies
such as motor trucks and other heavy
equ tpmeat.

thla fact the rapidity of the Austro

haa been able to Import supplies only
through tha port of Arcbantcel. closed

Advices received by the Associated
Press from Vladivostok several weeks
ago said that great amounta of sup

received from Toklo early thla month
that Japan had stripped large coast
guna from her fortifications on the
northeaet-rn coast and bad shipped
them to ladlvostok.
Notwithstanding thla assistance, the
Kusjitaa supply of munitions baa fallen

GAME TO BE WATCHED
Forest Rangers and lire Wardens
May Help Work.
The most comprehensive system for
the protection of game in the atate
will be initiated in th very , near
future If the plans of Carl D. Shoe
maker. State Game Warden: Frank A
Elliott, State Forester, and 8. C. Bart
rum, supervisor of the National forests
In the Roseburg district, are approved
by the State Game and Fish Commis
sion and the State Forestry Board.
Last night at the Imperial Hotl
these three state and Federal officials
met and formed a tentative plan that
will be unfolded before the State Game
and Fish Commission that will be in
session at Salem today. They propose
to recommend that the United States
Forest Service, through its ranger,
and wsrdens, co-operate in the distri
bution and planting of fish in the
streams of Oregon, and particularly in
those that lie in the state and Na
tional forests.
A thorough examination of all the
streams within the National forests
was reported by Mr. Bartrum last night
and it was also his comment that the
streams outside the state and Na
tional forests would be examined to
discover whether or not they were
suitable for the planting of trout If
the system proposed meets with the
approval of the state boards. It will
materially strengthen the forces o
protection of the game, fish and the
forests In the state.
As the law Is now, all fire wardens
In the employ- of fhe state are ex of
ficio game wardens, but as yet the re
verse Is not tne case. in oroer mat
there may be further co-operation be
tween these two departments of the
state. It is the Intention of Mr. i-Ulott
to sppoint ail the game wardens lire
wardens, who will serve the state
forestry department without pay.
There has always been close co
operation between the officials of the
state and National forest services, it
is said, and with the inclusion of the
representative of the Game and Flub
Commission In the new plan, protec
tion in all three departments will be
Increased many fold.
