AVlien Population la Considered, Ore
gon Surpasses Other Sections
of Country In Providing
for National Defense.
Oregon Is doing Its share, and more
than its share in enlisting' recruits for
all branches of the National service
for the war. .
Figures show the Portland recruit
ing offices, together with the National
Guard units of the state, either already
called to the colors or available for
service, have enrolled no fewer than
7631 men, under an entirely volunteer
enlistment system.
The response to the call for volun
teers has been more pronounced here
than almost anywhere else in the
country. Indeed, considering the rela
tive population, Oregon may be said
to have done better than' any other
state in the Union.
For example, only three recruiting
stations in the whole country filled up
the quota of 800 men asked for in each
place by the Navy between April 1
and April 20. Portland got 810 men
In that period.
The two other cities to fill up the
quota in the 20 days were Kansas City
and Baltimore. When the density of
population in and about those centers
is compared with that of Portland, the
comparison is all in favor of the Rose
City.
Hospital Apprentices Secured.
The Navy alone has enlisted 2018
men in the Portland recruiting station
during April and May up to the present
time. Another instance of the effi
ciency of the local Navy recruiting of
fice is shown by the fact that officers
in charge here were asked to enlist 75
hospital apprentices between April 28
and June 15. The local office has al
ready signed up 89.
It is believed the 'Army recruiting
office here is either second or third
In the whole United States in respect
to the total of enlistments, consider
ing the population of the various states.
In April 1233 recruits were enrolled
for Army service and up to date this
month 785 have been recruited.
Captain L. B. Pinkston, in charge of
the marines recruiting work in this
territory, said Oregon is doing more
than its Bhare in giving men to this
arm of the service. With a quota of 26
In April. Captain Pinkston's office en
listed 109, and in the month ending
May 20. with a quota of 95. 134 were
lathered into the marines.
Marines Enlist for War Only.
In fact men for the marine service
are being enlisted faster than uni
forms can be supplied. Another thing
that is expected to give a big spurt
to recruiting for the marines became
known yesterday when Captain Pinks
ton received advice to enlist men lor
the term of the war only.
Harry M. Grayson, a sporting writer
on The Oregonian, was among those
who enlisted yesterday.
Louis Gervais, of Pendleton, just en
listed, was again started for the Mare
Island training camp last night, after
having been accepted here previously
and rejected down south. He under
went an operation here to remove a
disability so that he could enlist. The
wound healed nicely and he was ac
cepted, passed by the doctor and sent
on his way. A tiny sinus in the in
cision developed pus down south and
he was rejected. But the plucky lad
waited until he had again recovered
and was again accepted.,
National Guard Adda 3I2.
The National Guard of the state has
added 3929 to the troops either now
available or in reserve for Government
call. To this number may be added
easily 100 in auxiliaries of various
kinds.
The total figure given for Oregon
does not include a large number of
vounar men who have gone to the of
ficers' training camp at the Presidio
and there are other men identified
with various war activities that would
bring the total up remarkably.
MARINES OFFER WAR SERVICE
Enlistments Now Will Be for Period
of War, Saya Commander.
Men who want to Join the Marine
Corps may now enlist for the period of
the war instead of for any stated term
of service. This is expected to have a
splendid effect in bringing the strength
of the marines up promptly, due to the
desire of volunteers to see active serv
ice and to be released from duty when
the war ends.
George Barnett, Major-General com
mandant of the Marine Corps, sent the
following telegram advising the new
order of enlistment to The Oregonian
yesterday:
"The bill signed by President Wilson
yesterday authorizes the Marine Corps
to enlist men between the ages of 18
and 35 for the period of the war. Men

Big Realty Owners In Toledo Attend
Meeting to Further Cam
paign for Issue.
TOLEDO. Or.. May 14. (Special.) E.
J. Adams, of the State Highway Com
mission, addressed a fair-sized audi
ence yesterday at the Courthouse - on
the $6,000,000 road bond Issue. Many
of his hearers were among Lincoln
County's largest realty owners. Mr.
Adams created a favorable impression.
and In his analysis explained that SO
per cent of the traffie is carried over
0 per cent of roadway: that z per
cent of the roads In Oregon serve
one-half of the population of the state,
and that SO per cent of that traffic is
motor-driven.
The speaker made It plain that if
the bonds do not carry that Lincoln
County must depend upon poet and
forest reserve road money, and that
that money likely will be first spent
upon sections bearing the heaviest
traffic, which are in other parts of the
state. If the bonds do carry, the use
of the post and forest reserve road
money is available for local roadways,
since the highways where traffic is
the heaviest will be hard surfaced
from the funds arising from automo
bile licenses.
Mr. Adams called attention to the
fact that the motor vehicle license fees
will furnish alone sufficient funds to
pay all of the principal and interest on
the Issue.

year, actually turned out volumes at
