holders and to ships under the nrs
three days' operation of the five-day
factory closing order, severe weather
held back tbs clearing of freight con

sought. At the office of the director
general of railroads It was said that
thers was little hope for material Im
provement In t rattle conditions until the
weather moderated.
Efforts were centralised today on the
movement of empty coal cars back to
the mines, and to the transportation of
bunker coal to the Atlantic seaboard.
A total of 150.004 lona of bunker coal
had arrived or was en route-for North
Atlantic ports, while 100.00 ions had
been delivered on the southern sea

Hundreds of hopper cars have been

FATS TRADED FOR SOAP
Portland Housewives Heed Pica for
Practical Conservation.
A few housewives of Portland have
begun the conservation practice of
turning in through their grocerymen
unclarlfled fats and drippings and car
rying away soap In exchange. Through
efforts of the food administration, ar
rangements recently were made where
by a pound of so-called soap fats may
be exchanged at any grocery store for
a bar of soap.
Co-oprralton of the two soap manu
facturing firms of Portland made pos
sible the exchange arrangement now n

from the blandishments of the two

More than two-thirds of the Republl
can Senators are pledged to support
the amendment while only about one-
half of the Democrats are In line.
President Wilson's Influence probably
will swing over the needed additional
Democratic votes. Without his back
ing the amendment was doomed to de
feat in both bouses.
3 Votes Are Keeeesary.
Making allowances for two vacan
cles, the maximum affirmative vote
necessary will be SI. Actually a slight
ly smaller total may be sufficient, in
asmuch as two-thirds or tnose vot
ing and not a Constitutional two-thirds

At least 51 Senators, only 10 less
than the desired number, are said to
be definitely pledged to the amend
ment. These Include tbe solid delega

There are six atates. Nebraska, North

tlon's Industrial closing order and con
demnation of National boards and com
missions "made up of Incompetents"
were voiced in resolutions and speeches
at a meeting of the Boston Central
Labor Union today. The organization
represents more than 9000 working
men and women.
The resolutions eay that the workers
now are "obliged to cease work for
five days and for nine following Mon
days, thus entailing loss in pay and
consequent suffering without having
had any voice In the matter," and de
claring labor should "have representa
tion properly due it" on Federal boards
and commissions.
While expressing "continued and
earnest loyalty to the Government In
the successful prosecution of the pres
ent war." the resolutions protest
sgainst "the present rule of commis
sions made up of Incompetents and men
without experience In the practical
handling of the problems presented to
them for settlement."
The executive board was authorized
to present the protest personally to
President Wilson and President Uom

Hundred of War Savings Committees
May Be Used aa Ageneiea In
" Nation-wide Campaign.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 20. Hundreds
of war savings committees which have
been organized in cities, counties and
states may be used as agencies in the
proposed Nation-wide movement to re
strict unnecessary building and other
enterprises not essential to the war
nd to save capital investments for
Government war bonds.
This became known today in connec
tlon with the plans which the Federal
Reserve Board is making for regula
tion of issues of private securities. A
committee of the board, now working
out definite methods, has under con
sideration a suggestion that commit
tees of business men and bankers in
each community and state be entrusted
with tbe task of cutting off at the
source proposed expenditures which
can be eliminated, during the war.
Since the war savings committees
already are organized they are con-
idered the most available for the
work. The entire procedure will be
based on moral persuasion and not on
legal force.

OREGON CITY, Or., Jan. 20. (Spe
cial.) "Remember, you are at war.
And In a war, there are only two
classes of people the man that is with
you, and the man that is against you.
And I tell you, you cannot deal too
harshly with the man that is not with
you!"
This was the convincing remark of
Lieutenant-Colonel J. M. MacMillan in
an address before approximately 3000
persons in the Busch Hall today. Lieu
tenant-Colonel MacMillan, with Cap
tain E. J. Gook and Major F. B. Ed
wards, were In this city to impress on
the minds of loyal Americans the im
portance of their part in the great
world war, and the action they must
take before they will witness its satis
factory end. They are officers of the
First Canadian regiments who saw ac
tion on the western front in France,
and now are in this country recuper
ating from wounds.
Patriotic Manic Provided. .
County Judge H. S. Anderson acted
as chairman of the meetings, one being
given in the afternoon and another in
the evening. Patriotic music was fur
nished by the Oregon City High School
orchestra. Bruce Dennis, head of the
State Council of Defense, told briefly
of the mission of the Army officers to
this state.

How London Awoke Is Told.
Captain E. J. Gook spoke first. His
subject dealt largely with the stand
made by the allied armies, and tbe ne
cessity of the American people awak
ening to their position. He said, in
part:
"London, too, thought they were so
far from the real war that no possible
harm could reach them. They reasoned
that the North Sea and their invincible
navy stood between them and the fight-
ng, but when the small, silver-looking
airplanes of the Germans swooped over
the city and dropped bombs at their
very doors they realized that the war
was with them. Oregon may think
that it is safe, but I hope that it will
not see such reminders of the war as
some European countries have seen."
The work of the soldier, from en
trenching, training, field work to ac-
ual fighting-, was depicted vividly by
Major F. B. Edwards.
That every man, woman and child at
home can do his "bit" to help win the
war was confirmed by Lieutenant-
Colonel MacMillan.
Soldiers Want Local News.
Above all, you people at home must
not be down-hearted. The boys at the
ront are not. and when you send them
letters telling of your trials and trlbu-
atlons, do you think it is going to
cheer them up? I have censored many
housands of letters from the boys at
the front that are being sent home.
They all say: "Tell Nan or Mike to
write," and "How Is the little calf get
ting along?" That is the things the
boys want to hear of. Tell them of the
things they were interested in when
they were at home.
"And to the women. I assure you
that the work you are doing to provide
the boys with woolen goods Is noble.
When you make socks for the boys,
make them long enough to reach just
above the calf of the leg. and make
the top a little tighter, so that the
sock will not crumple down about their
feet.
, "Now the newspapers print the cas
ualty lists in large letters. Later the
type will dwindle to such extremities
that it will be hardly intelligible. And
when the news comes across the sea
that your boy perished in battle, smile
don't cry, for you can be proud In
the thought that Vour son died the
death of a man, and in the service of
his country a nobler death could not
be reached."
BRITISH LABOR CRITICAL
DOUBTFULNESS SHOWN WHEN
GOVERNMENT ASIvS MEN.
Conference at Nottingham Expected
to Admit Brain Workers to
Party's Membership,
LONDON, Jan. 20. The first month
of 1918 has been one of the most try
ing of the whole war for the British
people. Now the nation seems to have
weathered Its aoubts and disagree
ments and accepted the watchword.
We Must Go On Or Go Under."
The labor unions meet the demand
upon them for more men In khaki with
a critical and douDtrui spirit: tney
insisted upon knowing the govern
ment's exact war programme and were
nclined to believe that peace negotia
tions were possible. These questions
have been threshed out with the gov
ernment fully and freely, with straight
talking on both sides, and the govern
ment seems to have carried the day.
This result is due principally to
Premier Lloyd George and it strength
ens his position ad authority for
the time being.
The labor party 9 conference at Not
tingham, this week will be one of the
most Important in its history. Pro
nosals for a new constitution will be
considered, which will admit an Drain
workers to the party's ranks on an
equality with the trade unionists. This
is called "the hand and brain" move
ment, and the laborites expect that it
will make their organization the larg
est and strongest political body in the
kingdom.

nity of Neuve Chapelle and Lens.
There was much successful air bom
barding of the enemy's- troops and
dumps yesterday. Eight hostile ma
chines were brought down. Four" of
ours are missing."
aurlng the next two days they will be
able to relieve congestion at the ter

Undigested food delayed in the stom
ach decays, or rather, ferments the
same as food left in the open air. says
a noted authority. He also tells us that
Indigestion Is caused by Hyper-acidity,
meaning, there is an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach, which pre
vents complete digestion and starts
food fermentation. Thus everything eat
en sours in the stomach much like gar
baee sours in a can, forming acrid fluids
and gases which inflate the stomach
like a toy balloon. Then we feel a
heavy, lumpy misery in the chest, wo
belch up gas, we eructate sour food or
have heartburn, flatulence, water-brash
or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast and drink whilo it is
effervescing, and furthermore, to con
tinue this for a week. While relief fol
lows the first dose, it is important to
neutralize the acidity, remove tho gas
making 'mass, start the liver, stimulate
the kidneys and thus promote a free
flow of pure digestive Juices.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia and sodium
