FOURS AND SIXES Liberal Terms U. S. WARSHIPS SEARCH German Mercantile Submarine Con voys Relieved to Have Delivered Supplies of Torpedoes and Oil at Bases. PROVIDENCE. R. I., June 26. (Spe cial.) The United States Government Is in po-ssession of information that German U-boats are again on this side of the Atlantic, and that they have established a base somewhere off the south side of Culm, the Providence Journal will say tomorrow morning". It is declared by officers of the Navy that if this is so, these U-boats have either been preceded or followed by one or more mercantile submarines which have carried extra supplies of torpedoes and oil. Such a convoy is said to bi absolutely necessary in order to make the trip across the Atlantic for German submarines worth while. The arming- of all merchant ships has practically destroyed the attacking value of the three and four-inch guns which have been carried on the decks of these submarines in the past and the shell fire from which has meant the saving of a great many torpedoes. With the greater risk ' from open fighting now the mercantile vessels are armed the submarines are being com pelled to depend more and more on torpedoes alone, and it is pointed out that unless the U-boats which are said to have reached Atlantic waters of the United States have some means of re plenishing their stock of torpedoes, their presence here except in great numbers would be productive of little military advantage. It is believed, therefore, t'.at mer cantile submarine convoys have been sent also. American warships are con ducting a ceaseless search along the suspected shores for any trace of bases of this character. TIMBER VALUES STAND SITRESIB COCRT IPHOLDS SRSSOR OP CLACKAUAS, Weyerhaeuser Land Company Loses Contention After Having Won In Circuit Court. OREGON CITT. Or., June 26. (Spe cial.) The reversal by the State Su preme Court of the Circuit Court de cision in the case of the appeal "of the Weyerhaeuser Land Company today marked the close of a case that has been watched closely by the timber in terests of the entire Pacific Coast. To day's decision is a cleancut victory for the local District Attorney's office. The Weyerhaeuser appeal was argued before the State Supreme Court by Gil bert L. Hedges, representing Clackamas County, and C. Ll. Starr, for the land company. Hedges was assisted by Dep uty District Attorney Thomas A. Burke and H. B. Beckett, while Starr had the assistance of Littlefield and Maguire. A petition was filed by the Weyere haeuser Land Company on September 1. 1914, with the Board of Equaliza tion of this county praying for a re duction on the assessed valuation of about six sections of land valued at $188,145 by the Assessor. Following the denial of the petition by the board the company appealed to the Clackamas County Circuit Court, which fixed the valuation at $92,502. It was from this decision that the ap peal was taken. POLICY OWNERS WARNED CARF,LKSSESS OF1 HUSBANDS DE PRIVES AVIVKS OF FUNDS. Itonef lelarlea IV ot Told Name of Com pany in Which. Ijlfe Insur ance In Carried. SALEM, Or.. June 26. (Special.) Insurance Commissioner Harvey Wells Issued the following life insurance warning today: Duritif the last 1ft days three Inquiries have been directed to the Insurance Depart ment from women who are aaklne aid of this office to ascertain In what company the life insurance policy which the father or hus band carried, was issued. It in almost impossible with the number of companies or fraternal societies doing busi ness in the United States, to find in which particular company or society the policy w hi written. Years lapse, records are de stroyed and the statute of limitation becomes a bar to further proceedings. The man who carries life insurance with out informing his family of the same, is placing those dependent in the same po sition as the shipwrecked sailor who knows that in some direction lies aid, but who does not know In what direction and who In addition lacks the means to make an at tempt. The prevalence of this form of careless ness makes this warning imperative. Let every policy-holder inform his wife or other dependents where and in what company or society he is insured and thus guarantee to her the protection which he often denies himself through life to provide.
