Samuel Hill's Plan. '
FEDERAL PROJECT NEEDED
Suggestion to Bo Presented Before
Pan-American Hoatls Congress in
Oakland Cost Is Estimated,
at $50,000 a Mile.
OAKLAND, Cal., Sept. 15. A project
for the construction of a great military
road along the Pacific Coast, through
California, Oregon and Washington, to
be built by the United States Govern
ment, will be presented for the con
sideration of the Pan-American roads
congress, in session here, according to
announcement made today by Samuel
Hill, of Maryhill. Wash., president of
the Pacific Highway Association, who
will take an active part in the con
gress. "We shall ask the National Govern
ment to provide the money for this
road," Mr. Hill said. "We want a hard
surfaced road, over which troops may
be moved easily if necessary. Ve need
it for defensive purposes. The states
have done all they can do in building
interior roads, and it is the duty now
of the Federal Government to construct
this highway. It would be approxi
mately 1000 miles long and would cost
probably $50,000 a mile."
Alternative to Protect llond.
William H. Roy, Highway Commis
sioner for the State of Washington,
said tBe automobile had produced more
problems for road-builders "than all
other agencies.
Nelson P. Lewis, chief engineer of the
Board of Kstimate ami Apportionment,
of New York, discussed the financing of
road projects.
"The use of bonds by a state, county
or town,"( he said, "is justified only
when and to the extent to which the
benefit will be general. The terms of
the obligations should be limited to the
life of the improvements lor which
they are to pay. "
James H. Macdonald, who was for 18
years Connecticut State Highway Com
missioner, said at the convention today
that the states of California, Oregon
and Washington lead the Union in the
matter of good roads.
"The Columbia Highway in Oregon
and the roada of the Siskiyou Pass in
California," he said, "more than equal
the famous roads of Kurope, as well
as the famous palisades drive along
the Hudson. This wonderful road prog
ress had all been made in the past 10
years."

the United States Government and ac
cepted here as conclusive proof that
the White Star liner Arabic was tor
pedoed without warning, causing the
loss of two Americans,
Secretary Lansing, in making this an
nouncement today, made it clear that
no representations or expression of
opinion by the American Government
had been made in the communication.
The viewpoint of the United States,
based on the evidence in the Arabic
case and its position on the principles
involved, were stated tinfSrmally to
Count von Bernstorff, the German Am
bassador, who communicated later with
the German Foreign Office.
The outcome-of these two steps ex
amination by the German Foreign Of
fice evidence and receipt by Berlin of
ficials of Ambassador Bernstorff's sug
gestion is awaited before the next
move in the situation is determined.
The general expectation is that sev
eral days, possibly two weeks, will
elapse before the decision of the Ger
man government is made known.
No word had been received at the
State Department concernlne published
reports of the chase of the American
liner St. Paul by a German submarine.

It was said at the Department that if
the St. Paul was attempting to escape
after having been warned an attack on
her might have been justified. In the
absence of details. Department officials
were not disposed to comment on the
case.
WlliSO.V PRAISED IN BERLIN
Berlin Editor Says - English Must
Give lp Hope or Trouble.
BERLIN, via London. Sept. IS. In
the German goVernment's explanation
of the Hesperian case Germania sees
the way made clear "for President Wil
son's ultimate purpose regarding the
German note concerning justification
for the sinking of the Arabic."
x The newspaper declares that the
British press must give up its hopes of
serious differences between Berlin and
Washington. It praises President Wil
son for having refused to be influenced
by British reports of a new menace to
German-American relations, which had
just been guided into a more peaceful
channel, and adds:
"The President's cool self-containment
is now justified. The British tis
sue of lies is at last torn to pieces and
if anything remains of the entire ques
tion of lesponsibility for the misfor
tune it probably will rest immedately,
as we suspected, on one of Britain's
excellent anchored mines."

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Or., Sept. 15. (Special.) With coats
inside out, with trousers rolled to their
knees, with hands on the shoulders -of
the man in front and legs pumping in
prison fashion, 150 men students, fresh
men, wound through the Eugene streets
this afternoon and were officially
"crowned" with green caps at a Willamette-street
department store.
Sophomore dictators, dressed as Mexi
can army officers and heavily armed
with ancient muskets, bravely led the
charge and delivered commands. Ama
teur photographers snapped pictures,
and crowds lined the pavement as the
baby class marched.
So strange was the sight and cos
tumes that a peaceful steed, the motive
power of an ice wagon, snorted, threw
up his heels and retreated through a
trio of lawns, two fences and finally
surrendered to a pair of football men
against a barn wall. Other than a lost
wheet-and an excited horse, little dam
age was done.
The ice-wagon chauffeur was a
sophomore delivering his wares in an
apartment-house.
Today's "crowning" traditionally
marked the informal opening of the
Fall collegiate semester.

WEKATCHEE, Wash., Sept. 15.
(Special.) Ashley E. Holden,
graduate of the Wenatchee High
School and well known in this city,
made a novel request last week of his
newspaper readers at Orient. He asked
the indulgence of his subscribers for
suspending the paper this week while

Mr. Holden, after graduation, went
to Loomis, where he was employed
for a time in a bank, then he pur
chased the Chesaw paper, but recently
moved his equipment to Orient, in the
north half of the Colville Reservation,
on tne Jvettle Valley branch of the
Great Northern.
Holden said: "We don't know wheth
er It Is customary for an editor to
take a vacation or not. We do know
that we want to get off for a week,
and as this paper is yours and you are
the boss, we are going to ask your in
dulgence and omit next week's issue.
No, our grandmother isn't dead, nor it
isn't a ball game, nor even the Spo
kane fair, nor the open bird season
which is calling us. The fact of the
matter is that we are going to obey
the Biblical injunction that advises a
man not to live alone."

DETENTION HOME BIDS WAIT
Threatened Flnlncal Stringency
Causes Delay in Council.
The Municipality's prospective finan
cial stringency yesterday caused the
Council to defer advertising- for bids
for the construction of the City a pro
posed Detention Home for Women near
Troutdale. The question of whether an
attempt will be made to erect the
hulldtncr this- veari was DUt over until
the middle Jt October.
Another difficulty that has arisen is
the objection being raised by a number
of women against the ite. They de
clare it is too near the County Poor
Farm.
