In the two previous liberty loan campaigns state headquarters has learned to open eagerly any message from like County, for it Is there that Bernard Daly, present chairman of the district, goes crusading. Never have the returns failed to show the results of Indefatigable work and purpose. go there was little surprise and much delight when "Lake County passed Into the honor column early In the campaign for the third loan. On the first day the county's quota waa oversubscribed at the rate of -250 per cent. It Is es timated that the citlxens of Lake will swell this to a total of 300 per cent. Practically every man and woman In Lake County has bought a bond, and many will be held by the junlora. Large subscriptions of the campaign In Lake County are: Bernard Daly, for the Bank of Lake- view and Ita stockholders. $50,000; W. H. Shirk, for the First National Bank and Its stockholders, t:5,000: F. A. Kitipatrlck. for self and Chewaucan .and Cattle Company. 1:8.000; John D.

And Fossil wrought prodigiously with Its quota of $14,000, early in the campaign reporting incomplete prog ress at 132,000. The town of Mitchell, with a quota of $12,000, has subscribed $14,000, and a sister town. Spray, has passed Its $9000 quota, and reported $11,000. It Is estimated that Wheeler County, with a quota of $35,000, already has $57,000. What Oregon workmen 'think of the duty dollar drive is best evidenced by the remarkable tallies of the industrial plant subscriptions thus far in the campaign. In each instance the fol lowing subscriptions represent bond purchases by employes and officials of the various companies: Grant Bmlth-Porter. $301,000; Found ation Company, $312,000; Northwest Steel. $219,550; Columbia River Ship building Corporation, $130,000; Coast Shipbuilding Company, $30,000; Supple ft Ballin, $30,000; Standifer-Clarkson, $23,000: Standifer Construction Com pany. $60,000: Peninsula bhtpbuilding Company, $47,000: Alblna Engine & Machine Works, $93.1!0; Albers Bros, $13,li'0; Troy Laundry, 5200: Som marstrom Shipbuilding Company, $30,- 000; Kastern & Western Lumber Com pany. $125,000; Willamette Iron & Steel Company. $331,000; St. Helens snip building Company. $10,000; McKachern & Co.. $10,000; Wilson Shipbuilding Company. $"ri,noO; George F. ltodgcrs Company. $7000. The total of these will be officially credited to the Co lumhia Hivcr Shipbuilders' Association of the Columbia ltiver district. Subscriptions from foreign corpora tions have been heavier than ever be fore. To date the soliciting commit tee has secured $318,000, credited to the entire state. Nooa flally Folhoslnst Ic. In the campaign for duty doljars there has never nsscmbled a more en thUMlastlc liberty loan audience than that which assembled at the noon rally before Liberty Temple yesterday. Fully 1000 citizens thronged Liberty Place, chee.red f ull-throatcdly at the speaking rllmaxes and Joined in the communa singing of "The Star-Spanglcd Ban ner." Again the Portland public received from Major Sturrock, of the Canadians, and Lieutenant Warren, of the Koya Flying Corps, such terse, illuminating recitals of life and death for freedom in Krance as stir the fighting spirit of the city and make the loan a little thing, lightly given. There were selections by the Musi clans' Mutual Association and the lib erty loan chorus of the 318th Kngineers, while Mrs. Jane Burns Albert, one of Portland's favorite soloists, sang "When the Boys Come Home. 1 "let those who have bought bonds of the third loan hold up their hands." requested Marshall N. Dana, chairman of the rally. Rverybody Going to Buy. In answer the standing throng shot up hands by the nunared. Tuny halt of the great gathering signaling the aflirmative. 'And those who have bought, or are going to buy before the campaign closes, pursued the chairman. Every hand Hashed aloit, and the crowd laughed at the spontaneity with which It made answer. But when the Insistent Mr. Dana re quested that those who were able to buy, and did not intend to, make aim! lar profession, there wasn't so much as a little finger raised In Liberty Place. A moment later they were sing ing the National anthem. Portland women scored a point yes terday and further demonstrated that they are tndigpeiiaableHo the success of the third liberty loan campaign. when a woman walked up to the women s division In Liberty Temple and said "As long as there are women here I am going to subscribe for a bond and she Immediately proceeded to write out a check for $25,000 before their amaaed eyes. It was a subscription of the Neighbors of Woodcraft. An old Finnish woman, with a black silk handkerchief tied over her head. sack of oranges In her hand, and 5 cents In her purse, wandered Into the temple. Is this where the war Is" she plaintively queried. Someone tried to explain to her, but she only mumbled to herself and peered about with wondering eyes. Then she asked If they would not send some Finnish person to her house who could ell her all about it. For an hour and a half she stood around, and when anyone asked If he could help her she replied: 'I only want to stand here and watch what you people are doing." Card Index System Valuable. The card Index system at the temple rapidly becoming a bureau of In formation for the workers. The so- icitora are gleaning further Informa- lon from those whom they approach. nd this additional material is being ntered upon the office records Cards I whtch are "off color" are laid aside, LOAN IS GIVEN BY SPEAKERS AND and these cases will all be investigated by the proper authorities. Voluntary workers are giving a large part of their time to the cam paign. The motor squad girls are con stantly on hand with ' their machines, and private individuals have been all day ready to serve upon call. Type writers and supplies of all .kinds have been furnished for use in the drive. Many supplies have been sent out to the different districts from Liberty Temple. One man who dropped Into the tem ple was undecided as to whether he could afford a liberty bond or not. He was finally persuaded to purchase a $50 bond. No sooner had he written out his application when newsie ap peared waving an extra with glaring headlines: "German Lines Advance." The applicant glanced at the paper and exclaimed: Well, I guess I had better double that," and 'he changed his application to one for a $100 bond. A workman at common labor in the city employ, who Is in the firat draft and expects to be called Into active service at any time, was approached to buy bonds and gladly purchased $100 worth, saying he regretted he could not buy more.

The supply of boxes for fruit growers and shippers of the Pacific Northwest will fall short of the demand during the coming season by approximately 10,000,000 boxes unless orders are placed soon at prices which will com pete with present quotations in the East on lumber formerly devoted to box making. This was the opinion of representatives of the box manufactur ers of the Inland Empire, the West Coast and California, who met yester day In Portland. Twenty-two million fruit containers are normally used eafch year by the fruit growers of Washington and Ore gon. Two years ago the boxes cost an average of 10 cents each. This year they must sell at 18 or 18 cents to bring a return to the box manufacturer that will permit him to manufacture without a loss. The increase In fruit box prices is proportionately less than the increase in the price on containers for the sal mon canneries, according to a state ment given out by the boxmakers after their meeting. .' Apple boxes, which sold two years ago for 10 and 11 cents, will be 18 and 18 cents this year, whereas the containers used for canned salmon, which cost 7 Ohi and 11 cents twj years ago, were supplied this Spring for 21 cents each. Stocks Are Below Normal. Contracts now have been nlo.j f,. 25 per cent of the fruit boxes which will be needed, according to the esti mate of the box men. Stocks of boxes on hand in the mills are more than 60 per cent below normal for this period oi me year, blocks of pine logs on nana or in signt in the logging opera tions are approximately 50 per cent of normal, and spruce logs available are fully 66 per cent less than is usual for April. in explanation of the scarcity of available material for boxes, the manu facturers pointed out in a statement that No. 4 pine boards, pine box stock and No. 2 and No. 3 shop pine lumber is now selling tn the East and Middle West at $22 to $27, and the lower grades or spruce are bringing $18 to $20 there. These prices are all f. o. b. mill in the Pacific Northwest, The cost of manufacturing boxes. with new labor costs and other items, now ranges around $12 per thousand feet, and an allowance of 15 per cent for waste in lumber in the manufac ture brings the total of $45 per thou sand feet which must be obtained for boxes. This works out to the basis of 18 or 18 cents a box. Available box material, both sawed and in the log, was canvassed by the men at the meeting today. The Gov ernment's commandeering of fir tim bers for shipbuilding has taken off the market the common and dimension fir stock, which is being replaced in the Eastern and Middle Western market by spruce. Northwest Well Represented. In an informal discussion of current prices which followed the meeting sev eral of the larger boxmakers declared that they have sufficient orders booked to occupy their plants until Novem ber or December, and that they are off the market entirely so far as new box orders are concerned. "These statements were actual facts and not intended merely to 'bull the market,' " said Henry Shanker, presi dent of the Kootenai Box Company, of Spirit Lake,- Idaho, who presided at the meeting.
