and more contracts for that yard are
expected to be announced. The Oov
ernment's plan, evidently, is to take
over the capacity of every steel yard
and as much more as can be grained
through expansion. The expectation Is
that every plant in the country will
be enlarged if it is possible. In the
event adjoining land is not to be had,
no doubt the move of the Northwest
Steel Company, in laying out a second
plant close by, will be followed by
some.
Portland has a third steel yard in
operation, the Albina Engine & Ma
chine Works, which is building 2500
ton and 3800-ton ships, and the new
steel plant of the G. M. Standifer Con
struction Corporation at Vancouver,
where 9500-ton vessels will be turned
out. The latter could begin fabricating
steel at any time now.

RUTHLESS DRIVE
OFFICIALS ARE SCORED
LONDON, May 20. The Russian com
missioner for foreign affairs. It was
made known today, sent the following
wireless May 9 to the German foreign
office:
"In the Turkish advance in Caucasus
the peaceful population, including
women and children, is being cut down
ruthlessly. The treaty we were forced
to sign at Brest Litovsk provided that
the populations at Ardahan. Kara and
Batum should have full freedom and
the right to control their destiny in
their own way. The event in these
regions show that the policy of ex
termination which has been followed
for the past ten years is still being
pursued.
"Responsibility for atrocities among
the Armenian people in the regions at
present occupied by Turkey devolves
upon the German government, whose
direct assistance makes it possible for
Turkey to exercise its will in these
regions.
Right of People Betrayed.
"The people's commissioner for for
eign affairs vigorously protests against
the betrayal of the right of the popu
lations of Ardahan. Kars and Batum to
dispose of themselves.
"The commissioner insists upon the
necessity of speedy and decisive inter
vention on the part of Germany in the
Caucasus to prevent the continuation
of massacre and extermination of the
peaceful population which is taking
place at Ardahan.

Simple Way to
End Dandruff
There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that Is to dissolve it, then you destroy
It entirely. To do this. Just get about
four ounces of plain, common liquid
arvon from any drug store (this Is all
you will need), apply it at night when
retiring: use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub It lngently with the fin
ger tips. n
By morning most, if not all. of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of It, no matter how
much oanarun you may have.

Experts agree in recommending ZEROLE
cause it keeps the engine young full-powered,
Bmooth-nmning, and economical in fuel and oil con
sumption. The majority of motorists are now using ZERO
LENE, because they have learned by experience
that there is no better oil to be had.
Correctly refined from selected California asphalt
base crude, ZEROLENE gives perfect lubrication
with less wear and less carbon deposit. Less wear
because ZEROLENE keeps its lubricating body at
