PLACE Governor of California Urged to Pardon Man Under Death Sentence. lrovost Marshal-General's Latest Order to Mobilize Is Simulta neous With Registra tion of 1918. WASHINGTON, June 3. While a million young Americans Just turned 21 were registered today for service in the war for world, freedom, orders went out from the office of Provost Marshal-General Crowder to the Gov ernors of all states, except -'-rlzona, fon mobilization between June 24 and 28 of 200,000 more registrants. This was In addition to 40,000 negro men requisitioned today from 20 states and brings the total number of selective service men called to the colors to 1.595,704, and when they are In camp the Nation's Army will num ber over 2,000,000 men. Perfect Order Reported. The registration today ' apparently was attended by the perfect order that marked the enrolling a year ago of 10,000,000 men. The men who registered today have become of age since the first registra tion day, June 5, 1917. Military au thorities estimate that from their number there will be had 750,000 men fit for active duty. While an act of Congress requires that the new registrants be placed at the bottom of the class to which they are assigned, many of them may soon be called to the colors, as today's requisition upon Governors probably will exhaust the finst class in some states. While no formal explanation was made, this was believed to have been the reason why Arizona was not Included In today's call. Four Enrollments Yearly Probable. Registration days for men become 21 years of age probably will be fixed every three months hereafter. It Is estimated that 1,000,000 men become of age yearly, and the new. registrants are expected to go far toward keeping up the first class In each state from which thus far all men for the Na tional Army have been drawn. Assignments for the men called to the colors under today's order indi cate the rapidity with which troops now are moving overseas. In nearly very instance the registrants under today's requisition are assigned to Na tional Army cantonments, whereas re cently when calls were made it was necessary to send the men to National Guard, regulan Army and other camps because the cantonments were filled. Illinois is directed to furnish 28,500 men under the latest call, more than double the number called from New York, which is second on the list. Pennsylvania is to furnish 12,000 and Minnesota 10,000. The quotas and camp assignments for Western, states follow: California, 8000; to Camp Kearny, California. Colorado, 1500; to Camp Cody.

Vaudeville of a variety, one big fea ture picture built around the pertinent important subject of Russia's social problems, and a keen little comedy pic ture put in for good measure, besides & splendid collection of pictured topics of the day put out by the Universal Weekly, vie for the first place on the Strand's new bill. "The Firebrand" is the picture. It Is scenically of educational interest and shows Russian life In contrasted forms of Its aristocracy and the down trodden peasants. The story tells of a Rvssian Princess, Nataiyn, wh be comes an adherent of the masses. through reading the writings of an American author, Nordkin. Later they meet, under dramatic circumstances. Virginia Pearson plays the Princess In a fervent, picturesque way. The little comedy picture is called "Mum's the Word," and centers around the soul colors of two divorced couples who try a new color scheme profita bly and very funnily. Hawaiian acts continue to hold a compelling Interest. The one which decorates the new Strand bill Is like all of them, tuneful in a dreamy, lazy way, unique in its setting and delight ful. The Wrights sponsor it. A pair of happy folk who black up and cut-up are Billy and Cora Monahan, "Hot Time Minstrels," who step and chat and warble.

The purpose is to bring home to the public the importance to the Na tlon of employing graduate nurses in private homes only when their services are essential to saving life. The Army and Navy already have drawn from the private civilian prac tice more than 12,000 nurses, som 10,000 of which were Red Cross nurses, assigned them under the terms of their enrollment by the Red Cross to activ duty in the Army or Navy Nurse Corps, More than 25,000 additional graduat nurses must rally to the colors withl the next few months in order that wounded soldier or sailor may lac tor anything mat skiiiea nurses can contribute to his recovery or restora tlon to the ' fighting- line.

Fifty-two Seek Authority to Practice Army and Navy Giving; Commis sions to Many. The Oregon State Board of Dental Examiners has finished Its examina tion of applicants for permission to practice In Oregon and will announce the results of the examinations within few days. Fifty-two young men pre sented themselves for examination by the state board. Practically all of this year's gradu ates of North Pacific College have been made officers in the Medical Reserve Corps and some of them have already received orders to report July 1. The Oregon Board of Dental' Examiners keeps In close touch with the Army and Navy officials and makes recom mendations for the granting of com missions. As soon as the results of the present examinations are known -the Government officials will be In formed. Yesterday the examiners held meet ings in the offices of Schmitt tc Schmttt in the Oregonlan building to hear com plaints against dentists on the charge of incompetency. Ignorance, ineffi ciency and unprofessional conduct. These meetings will be continued to morrow and decisions will be made regarding several cases of incompe tent and unprofessional dentists. The board expects to finish its work by Saturday night. The members are Dr. H. H. Schmitt, of Portland, presi dent; Dr. H. H. Olinger, of Salem, sec retary; Dr. A. MacDougall, of Baker; Dr. W. D. McMlllen, of La. Grande. successfully attacked at 8:30 o'clock yesterday morning off the Maryland coast, probably was 100 miles north of the place where the Eidsvold was sunk eight hours later. It is increasingly evident as the re ports accumulate that the U-boats are avoiding armed craft and the vigil ance of the Navy patrol has kept them far away from the principal ports. Their errand in American waters is mystifying and the only explanation so far found acceptable Is that offered by Secretary Daniels to members of Congress an attempt to terrify the United States into recall of its fight ing ships from European waters for home defense. Eidsvold Disaster Announced. Tonight's statement announcing the destruction of the Eidsvold was brief. It said: "The Norwegian steamship Eidsvold was sunk by an enemy submarine 40 miles off the Virginia capes about 5 P. M. on June 4. according to word re ceived from a United States naval cargo ship. The entire crew was rescued by this naval ship on the afternoon of June 5, and is proceeding to an Atlan tic port." Why the U-boat commander picked out a neutral craft for attack is not apparent. The errand and cargo of the Eidsvold are not known. I Norwegian vessels have suffered heavily in the North Sea operations of the Germans, however, and It is evident, that Germany's own version of the rules of sea warfare, are those to be applied by her U-boat commanders, even outside the zones fixed for ruth less operations. The rules of cruiser warfare as Ger many interprets them have apparently been followed closely by the raiders, with the possible exception of the Eids vold's case, which Is still to be cleared up. 4 Otherwise, shfps' companies have In variably been given some chance for their lives when their vessels were de stroyed. The ruthlessness which drew the United States into the war has not so far been applied to American coastal waters. What bearing, if any, this may have on the purpose of the raid was not clear. Reports of survivors of the steamer Texel and the schooner Menzel today added little to the stock of informa tion that has been gathered about the raiders. The first officer of the Texel reported seeing a second submarine ly ing awash near when his ship was halted on June 2. From the captain of the Menzel came new indications that one of the raid ers at least is of the standard 800-ton type, mounting two guns and measur ing about 200 feet. It was a similar craft that sunk the Cole, although later reports have indicated that a larger U-boat accompanies the 200-footer. Submarine danger Is not sufficient at this time to justify advances in Government marine Insurance rates, the Treasury announced today. Life Rate Reduced. The rate of life Insurance for officers and crews of merchant vessels engaged in traffic through the war zone was reduced today from 25 cents to 15 cents per $100, as recommended before the submarine attacks off the Atlantic Coast. Submarine activities off the Ameri can Coast were discussed at today's session of President Wilson's war cabi net. Afterward Food Administrator Hoover said the food supply for the Army overseas had not been endan gered by the appearance of the enemy raiders, and that no fears were enter tained in that regard. C-BOATS WERE LONG EXPECTED Captains of Trans-Atlantic nave Been. Ready for Emergencies. LONDON, June 5. The captains of vessels in the trans-Atlantio service have been expecting submarines off American ports for months past, and most of them have prepared for any emergency the first night out. There after all the way across to Europe on most of the liners lifeboats remained lowered and instructions were given to passengers regarding life Jackets, un tne transports tne soldiers wear life Jackets almost from the time they go aboard. Of late the lookout forces have been doubled at night and throughout the voyage the watchers are almost as alert as when nearing European waters.

The position of the Clemencreau gov ernment Is strengthened as the result of the vote of confidence given it yes terday in the House of Deputies. The minority, which voted in opposi tion to the government, included 85 Socialists. 19 Radical Socialists belong ing to the almost permanent opposi tion and six other members belonging to the different shades of political faith on the left. The Premier argued that this was not the time to discuss military opera tions and the deputies upheld him in a somewhat stormy session. Cool and collected as he walked back and forth on the wide tribune while a storm of Interruptions from the So cialists surged up from the House, the veteran leader resembled a weather beaten captain pacing the bridge of bis ship, lashed by a heavy gale. The Premier ppoke without bitterness and, when referring to the sights he had seen at the front recently, his voice assumed a tone of intense sadness. Speaker Deschanel seemed powerless to quell the Socialist uproar. The Pre mier folded his arms and surveyed the -Socialist benches earnestly and pa tiently. When the interruption did not subside, he suddenly descended from the tribune, apparently deciding not to continue. Marcel Cachln then succeeded In quieting somewhat the exuberance of his Socialist colleagues, the most act ive of whom were Ieputlea Raffin Dugens and Deguise. Premier Clemenceau resumed the tri bune after Cachln's speech and eulo gized the French and allied armies, saying that the soldiers had fought one against five and sometimes one against 10.

The German submarine raiders again have disclosed their positions. An announcement from the Navy Department tonight eaid the Norwegian steamer Eidsvold was sent to the bottom at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, 40 miles off the Virginia capes. The entire crew was rescued today by a Navy supply ehip. Details of the encounter are lacking. In 30 hours after the attack on the Eidsvold nothing has come to indicate where the Germans were or what they were about. The raiders were closer in-shore when, they attacked the Eidsyold than on any previous occasion, except when they launched the mines picked up off the Delaware Capes.
