Referring to the alleged disloyalty
on the part of the members of the

"The principles of the Industrial
Workers of the World are a stench in
the nostrils of decent Americans. In

the remotest degree their application
in Arizona. A menace to the civil well

treason."

Members of Two Commissions Are
Impressed With Scenic Beauty of
Proposed Link Californians
Entertain Visitors.
BY CLEMENT W. AUSMAX.
CRESCENT CITY, CaL, Aug. 20.
f Special.) It was announced today by
the California State Highway Commis
sioners that California was ready to
construct along1 the coast a better
grade highway to the Oregon line, the
preliminary survey having already been
made.
Today the Governors and the High
way Commissioners of Oregon and Cal
ifornia motored from Crescent City
northward to the state boundary so as
to inform themselves more fully con
cerning conditions.
Simultaneously -vlth California's dec
laration that work would be started
soon. Simon Benson, chairman of the
Oregon State Highway Commission
pledged Oregon to build a highway to
connect with the California highway.
This means that the connection witn
the International Pacific Highway from
Grants Pass to Crescent City, 91 miles,
will be improved and the new coastal
route through Gold Beach and Marsh
field wiU be constructed as early as
funds and conditions permit
California will spend part of its J33,
000.000 road fund on a road to Oregon
from Crescent Ci T. A 30-mlle stretch
now is being built by convicts just
nuth of KunkL After the inspection
trip today the party returned to Smith
River. 14 miles north of Crescent City,
for the open-air meeting in the shad
ows of giant redwoods and within the
Bound of the Pacific Ocean breakers.
Six hundred persons from this region
and about 100 visitors from Southern
California and various parts of Oregon
lunched together. The day was perfect.
The Smith River people prepared the
feast, arranged a musical programme
and other entertainments. Governor
Stephens, of California, told of his trip
by motor into the northwestern corner
of this state, saying that the drive was
the most scenic he had ever taken.
Auiituce Is Promised.
"I am glad to come and tell you."
said Governor Stephens, "that we are
icolng to assist you build the highway.
This will help Oregon as well as our
own state."
E. J. Adams, of Eugene, Oregon
state highway commissioner, said that
in the next five years Oregon would
expend about $13,000,000 and that the
counties themselves would spend about
$5,000,000 annually on highways dur
ing that time.
James A. Johnson, warden of San
Quentin penitentiary, told of the con
vict work and incidentally pleaded
with those interested in prison reform
to do more work with the young men
before they are behind prison bars,
saying that then there would not be so
many in prison.
Ben Sheldon, of Grants Pass, said
that an improved road from the Jose
phine county seat to Crescent City's
seaport would start development of the
mining, agricultural and dairy region
of Southern Oregon on a large scale.
John L. Childs, Superior Judge of Del
Norte County, welcomed the state of
ficials, the road enthusiasts and en
gineers to this part of California. He
declared that the Coast road was nec
essary for commercial use as much as
for touring purposes. The chairman
of the afternoon was Henry West
brook, the largest taxpayer in Del
Norte County.
Early in the evening Governor
Withycombe, S. Benson, Amos Benson
and John B. Yeon drove to Gold Beach.
Governor Withycombe spoke to the
Curry County people tonight. He will
inspect the salmon canning plant of
the Macleay estate tomorrow morning
and go on to Port Orford and Marsh
field. The California Governor and
other officials drove to Eureka to
night. Many of the Grants Pass and Coos
County residents remained in Crescent
City tonight for the informal recep
tion. They will discuss local road mat
ters here and start for their respective
homes tomorrow afternoon.
People Are Hospitable.
Although the city is one of the oldest
on the Northern California coast, it
never before entertained at one time
two Governors, but the people know
how to dispense true hospitality. They
claim a population of only 1200 in Cres
cent City and about 4000 in the county.
- Sometimes in Winter they are isolated
from the world for two months. A
steamship line takes the lumber, gold.
chrome and quartz ore and dairy
products to San Francisco. When the
roads are passable auto stages carry
mail and passengers from here to
Grants Pass, 91 miles, or to Eureka.
105 miles, but now that good roads are
assured these people already are be
seeching Congress to improve the port
so that good transportation can be af
forded to a big section of Southwestern
Oregon and Del Norte County, Cali
fornia.
COUNCIL, ORGANIZED TO GUARD
PROPERTY IN MALHEUR.
Request of Mra. TV. T. Pricbard to
Have Body Ask President for
Wrt Aim Opposed.
ONTARIO, Or.. Aug. 20. (Special.)
At a meeting held today at Vale the
Malheur Council for Patriotic Service
was formed. Forty prominent residents
of the county answered the call of
County Judge McKnight.
t Several speakers rebuked Mrs. W. T.
Prichard, reputed to be a member of a
group of Vale Socialists, after she re
quested that a committee be appointed
to draft a resolution asking the Presi
dent and Congress to define the Na
tion's aim in the war.
W. E. Lees. P. J. Gallagher and G. K.
Aiken, of Ontario; M. N. Fegley and
George W. Hayes and County Judge
McKnight, of Vale, characterized such
a step as devoid of patriotism. Since
no second was received to Mas. Frich
ard's suggestion the meeting imme
diately appointed a committee to nomi
nate 10 men to form the council, and
these were named as follows: Ben J.
Brown. Vale; Frank Miller, Big Bend;
J. Boydell, Nyssa; S. F. Taylor, Ontario;
T. M. Lowe, Owyhee; S. M. Willis,
Brogan; J. D. Fairman, Westfall; P. J.
Gallagher, Ontario: C. C. Mueller. Vale;
John Havey, Ontario, and Judge W. Mc
Knight, ex-officio member. The coun
cil completed its organization by elect
ing C. C. Mueller chairman and P. J.
Gallagher, secretary.
Ontario already has completed - a
council of defense and has taken up the
matter of forming a home guard com
pany. There are thousands of dollars'
worth of hay and grain in the county,
as well as a great quantity of live
stock and since the county is so far
removed from Portland it wo.uld be
hard to obtain outside assistance in
case of trouble. The residents here do
not anticipate any serious difficulties.
but are to be prepared. As an addi
tional precaution Sheriff Ben J. Brown
plans deputizing one leader in every
precinct and giving him ten specially
selected citizens to assist him when
needed.
BUCKWHEAT CROPS LARGER
Hotcakos "Will Be Plentiful, Thanks to

HARKISBURG. Fa.. Aug. 20. Buck
wheat cakes will be plentiful this Win
ter, according to predictions made to
day by state officials. Pennsylvania has
led the Nation in buckwheat production
for years and this season there was an
increase of 15 per cent in acreage.
Consequently it is stated that last
year's crop of 4.250,000 bushels may be
Increased to 6,200,000 bushels in 1917.
SPRUCE SALE REGULATED

Plans for Operating Department Are
Complete and Will Be An

Man to Be at Head.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 20. A billion
dollars probably will be the sum asked
of Congress by the Shipping Board for
completion of its 18-montha building
programme.
Contracts soon to be placed for a
great fleet of fabricated eteel ehips,
ordinary contracts about to be let' and
the cost of commandeering ships under
construction, it was learned today, will
send the total far above the $500,000,
000 additional estimated by the old
board. President Wilson's approval of
the request for the appropriation will
e sought immediately.
Tne board already has received three-
quarters of a billion dollars, all of
which has gone into contracts and the
purchase of ships. The billion more
sought is needed before the board can
proceed with its programme.
Ship Plants to Be Built.
Contracts for Government-owned fab
ricating plants will be placed within a
few days. The Submarine Boat Cor
poration and the American Interna
tional Corporation, it is understood, will
construct the plants for the Govern
ment and will be given contracts for
uilding ships in them.
Foreign vessels now . building in
American yards which have been com
mandeered along with ships under con
duction for the American flag, prob-
bly will be retained by the American
Government. The question of the final
disposition of the British hulls has been
subject of prolonged negotiations with
the British government, which, it is
understood, now has agreed that the
United States is to pay for their com
pletion and put them under the Amer
ican flag.
Operating; Plans Complete.
The Shipping Board's plans for an
operating department have been com
pleted and will be made public as soon
as the name of a man to head it can
be announced. This probably will be
within a few d.-ys.
The board, it was learned today, will
ame for the place a railroad man, who
perhaps will be chosen from a number
uggested in the Middle West. Under
the operating director there will be
three directors of shipping, one to han-
le traffic on the Atlantic, another on
the Pacific and a third in charge of
vessels in the South and Central Amer
ican trade.
By Fixing; Price at $105 ler Thousand
and Eliminating; Brokerage Fees,
Cost of Plants Cut.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Aug. 20. Notice has been
served by the Aircraft Production
Board upon spruce mills and spruce
brokers that hereafter all purchases
of spruce for airplane manufacture
must be made through the boara ana
that standard specifications hereafter
will apply. The board will handle con
tracts for the allied Governments as
well as the United States.
Estimates on hand and furnished to
day to Senator McNary show the Unit
ed States will need 20,000,000 feet. Italy
has asked for 18.000,000, France, 36,
000,000 and Great Britain 80.000,000
feet. The board thinks the British es
timate is too high and is based on old
specifications, under which they, pur
chased 2440 feet per plane, while Un
der new specifications they will need
only 600 feet.
The Aircraft Board told the Senator
that by fixing a price of $105 and by
cutting out brokerage fees and getting
a Government rail rate on spruce, the
cost of spruce at New York has been
reduced from $140 per plane to $70 per
plane.
Formal notifications Is being sent by
the Aircraft Board to lumber brokers
in Oregon and Washington advising
them that no more spruce will be
bought through them by any of the
allied Governments; that hereafter all
purchases will be made direct from the
mills. This is in response to protests
from several brokers who have pro
tested at the holding up on contracts
in which they are interested. The
board admits its action is arbitrary.
but necessary under the circumstances.

NO SEW CONTRACTS ARE MADE
Labor Troubles Reason Given for
Holding Up Wood Ship Orders.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Aug. 20. Admiral Capps, suc
cessor to General Goethals, in charge
of Government ship construction, has
for the time being stopped awarding
ontracts for wooden ships and at the
same time is concentrating his efforts
n the steel ships programme, on which
veral large contracts are about to
be awarded.
On receipt of a telegram from the
Portland Chamber of Commerce, calling
ttention to a telegram from the Snip
ing Board to Fenney & Bremen, of
Tillamook, saying no more contracts
or wooden hulls would be awarded.
Senator McNary called on Admiral
Capps and learned that for the present
the wood-shin programme is held in
abeyance that now contracts will be
considered" but not awarded.
Admiral Capps said shipyards on the
Pacific Coast were having trouble get
ting both labor and material and the
Atlantic Coast yards cannot get mate
rial. This is due largely to h labor
agitation. Because contractors cannot
guarantee that they will have enough
labor and material to finish ships in
contract time, the Shipping Board is
not now awarding any new contracts
and will not let any more contracts
until bidders can guarantee satisfactor
ily that they will have ample material
and labor.
Senator McNary explained that the
Tillamook builders, in response to invi
tation of the Shipping Board, had
equipped their yard on the assurance
that contracts would be given for four
wood-en hulls, and since they have of
fered satisfactory bonas he insisted
the Government should accept their
bid, if their figure is reasonable.

WASHINGTON. Aug-. 20. Contracts

calling for Government requisitioning

it is not absorbed by the system and
that it has Invaluable healing proper
ties where irritation is present.
