Sto Kg- op- PonrukWb White Sale uine Hard Work, With Everybody Help ing, AVIII Mean Triumph In Great Crusade All Expected to Buy to Limit. Hard work and every one helping will enable Oregon to ko over the top in the war savings satmp drive June 2S. The allotment for Oregon is $17,- 500,000. If everyone in the state would buy $22 worth of stamps the trick would be done, but to make the drive a success, because there will be slack ers and other people who will not come up to the mark, it will be necessary for those who can do so to pledge themselves to the hilt and others must buy the limit. The third liberty loan has affected the war savings stamps campaign, be reause the bulk of the liberty bonds of the third issue was absorbed by the people of moderate means. If 170.000 people of the 800.000 in Oregon will each pledge themselves to take $100. maturity value, of the stamps, the quota will be completed. The "Limit Club" is looked. to for material assistance in putting Oregon across in the war savings stamps drive. The Limit Club will consist of individuals who have taken the limit of stamps, this limit being $1000 maturity value, and if bought in June, membership in the Limit Club will cost $834. Provid ing 14.000 men and women In Oregon Join the Limit Club they can insure tho success of the drive. Clubs Everywhere Plan. Formation of Limit Clubs will be carried out in each county in the state by the local committees and most of these committees will arrange to have the names of the Limit Club members published in their local papers. Mem bers of the Limit Club will be supplied with special buttons which they will have to pay for themselves, the cost of the button being about 15 or 20 cents. While the rule is that one person should not possess more than $1000 of matured value of stamps, there is nothing to prevent wealthy men and women from buying the limit for each member of the family. This is ex pected of the well-to-do people of Oregon, for otherwise the bulk of the stamps will have to be taken by those who can less afford heavy investments and it would be a reflection on the wealthy. Six Million County's Quota. More than ' $6,000,000 will have to be raised in Multnomah County. It is possible, for $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 will be obtained through membership in the Limit Club. A special organi zation will probably be effected for the express object of signing up members in the Limit Club for this city, this organization being something on the, order of the flying squadrons which' have distinguished themselves in ob taining large contributions and sub scriptions in other drives. Reports from up-state indicate that the Limit. Club will be well patronized when the war savings stamp drive gets under way and there will not be a school district in Oregon but will en deavor to have representatives in the club. ARMY PLAN CONSIDERED CITV TO STUDY TYPE OF" HOSPITALS AND BARRACKS. Extension to Woman's Detention Home Near Troutdale Greatly Needed. State to Be Asked to Help. Extensions to the .woman's detention home, now under construction near Troutdale will be on the Army plan of hospitals and barracks, if the opinion expressed by 'the City Commissioners yesterday Is followed out. City Health Officer Parrish. Chief of Police N. F. Johnson and Building In spector Plummer will visit Vancouver Barracks and Army cantonment today to study the type of buildings erected to care for the sick soldiers. If it is possible, the plans used in the con struction of the buildings will be pro cured for use in future extensions to The Cedars.. The woman's detention home is built in three units, one building to be used as the administration building and two others for the exclusive housing of pa tients. Under the present plans 43 per sons can be cared for, but this is inade quate, as there are now 57 girls under treatment at Kelly Butte. A plan has been suggested by Chief of Police Johnson for the building of ten additional rooms in the adminis tration building, but the council with held its approval until the Army plan of buildings can be thoroughly inves tigated. The City Council has agreed to care for all girls sent to Portland from out side points throughout the state, and the State Board of Health is to pay for the treatment. Inasmuch as the build ings now under erection are inadequate to care for the woman afflicted with social diseases and arrested in Port land, the Commissioners have suggested that the state furnish the money to build additional barracks to house all women received from outside points. Officials of the Oregon Hygiene So ciety will be asked by the council to go before the State Board of Health with such a proposition. The city has no funds with which to make extensive additions to the present plans. FUEL CONSUMER WARNED Buy Now, Is Advice of Oregon Fuel Administrator's Office. "If you want to keep warm next Winter, buy your fuel immediately," advises Miss Margaret B. Durning, ex ecutive secretary of the Oregon Fuel Administration, who returned Sunday from Chicago, where she represented the Oregon Administration at a. meet ing of the International Railway Fuel Association, held under the auspices of the United States Fuel Administration and the United States Railroad Admin istration on May 23 and 24.

Jumping its quota from 170,720 to $125,000 the war savings stamps com mittee of Deschutes County gives the first concrete evidence of the effect U-boats on the Atlantic Coast have had on the people of Oregon. Upon the heels of the news that the Huns were sinking American steamers near American ports, the committee of Deschutes County met at Bend and unanimously decided to raise the quota of the county $55,000 more than the county had been requested to subscribe. People in Deschutes have bought about $22,720 stamps and $48,000 of its quota remains, but when the sub marines began shooting up American shtps In home waters it aroused the spirit of the committee and the vol untary increase was made. Further more. Robert W. Sawyer, writing to the state headquarters from Bend, declares the new quota of $125,000 will be sub scribed to the last cent. When the word goes out of what Des chutes has done, it is probable the ex ample will be emulated by other coun ties. One thing appears certain the U-boats are proving the best publicity for the war savings stamps campaign that could be imagined, for they are impressing the public with the fact that the war is close at hand.
