VIADUCT IS ISSUE STILL Astoria Council Hears Protests Over Compromise Planned. ASTORIA, Or., May 30. (Special.) While Astorians supposed for a short time that the long-continued contro versy over the improvement of certain streets in the business section of the city was in a fair way of immediate settlement, the' trouble now appears to be as badly complicated as ever. On account of an injunction suit having been brought to restrain the city from putting in a reinforced con crete viaduct, the Council has decided. as a compromise, on filling the streets by pumping sand from the river. This brought a protest from both the advo cates of the viaduct and the earth fill. As a result the Council does not know what to do. 3 BOYS, 6 GIRLS GRADUATE "Woodland High Seniors Are Guests of Cooking Students. WOODLAND. Wash.. May 30. (Spe cial.)

President Wilson" today issued a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to celebrate Flag day, June 1. with patriotic exercises, giving ex pression to "our thoughful love of America. The proclamation follows: "My fellow countrymen: Many cir cumstances have recently conspired to turn our thoughts to a critical exami nation of the conditions of our Na tional life; of the influences which have seemed to threaten to divide us in interest and sympathy; of forces within and forces without that seemed likely to draw us away from the haDDV traditions of united purpose and action or which we. have been so proud. Day la Flag Anniversary. "It had, therefore, seemed to me fitting that I should call your attention to the approach of the anniversary of the day upon which the flag of the United States was adopted by the Con gress as tne emDiem of the Union and to suggest to you that it should, this year and in the years to come, be given special significance as a day of renewal and reminder, a day upon which we should direct our minds with a special desire of renewal to thoughts u the ideals and principle; o which we have sought to make our great Government the embodiment. "I therefore suggest and request that throughout the Nation and. if possible, in every community, the 14th day of June be observed as Flag day with special patriotic exercises at which means shall be taken to give signifi cant expression to our thoughtful love of America, our comprehension of the great mission of liberty and Justice to which we have devoted ourselves as a people, our pride in the history and our enthusiasm for the political pro gramme of the Nation, our determina tion to make it greater and purer with each generation and our resolution to demonstrate to all the world its vital union in sentiment and purpose, ac cepting only those as true compatriots who feel as we do the compulsion of this supreme allegiance. "Let us on that day rededicate our selves to the Nation, 'one and insepara ble,' from which every thought that is not worthy of our fathers first vows of independence, liberty and right shall be er.cluded and in which we shall stand with united hearts for an Amer ica which no man can corrupt, no in fluence draw from its ideals, no force divide against Itself, a Nation signally distinguished among all the nations of mankind for its clear, individual con ception alike of its duties and its privileges, its obligations and its rights." - r.
