JURORS DEBATE 17 HOURS
Attorneys for Defense of Washington
Man Expected to Ask. for New
Trial Shaffer Is Undis-
. turbed by Verdict.
' SEATTLE, Wash., June 28; (Spe
cial.) A verdict of guilty was returned
this morning: in the District federal
Court by the jury in.tfte Frank Shaf
fer espionage case, after the Jury had
been locked up 17 hours before, it re
ported an agreement
The trial, the second of its kind In
the Federal Courts of the country,
lasted the best part of Tuesday and all
of Wednesday and Thursday, when the
jury began its deliberations, at 4:30
o'clock in the afternoon: -
Frank Shaffer, a rancher of Everett,
find treasurer of the Everett branch of
the International Bible Students'. As
sociation, was indicted on three counts,
distributing- The .Finished Mystery,"
a work that, Thile. it bore the name of
.Pastor Russell, founder of -the '.L B.
S. A., is said to have been compiled by
Socialists ' for propaganda work over
the world, even to Germany.
Second Count Is Proved. .
The first count accused- Shaffer of
distributing the book, the second of
eending it through the mails, the third
of having made false statements against
the Government.
After a bitterly fought legal battle
between counsel for the defense and
the Government prosecutors; Judge
Neterer ruled that the only count
borne out by the testimony was the
second, which charged Shaffer with
using the mails to distribute seditious
matter. The first and third counts
were ruled out by the' court, who in
Etructed the jury to forget all about
them and the testimony on those two
counts and judge thedefendant only
. on the second.
Case Bitterly Debated.
Just what happened in the jury room
Is not known, but it is understood
' that the jury debated hotly and bit
terly, many being against Shaffer and
" a minority in - favor of the defendant.
' After the long night under lock and
key, when court reconvened ' at 10
o'clock this morning, the jury had not
' reached an agreement and asked for
further instructions from the court.
Shortly after this the Jury returned Us
verdict of guilty against Shaffer on
the second count.
The defendant, who was under $5000
bail, heard the verdict without emotion.
It is expected that the attorneys for
;the defense, E. D. Daileyand Judge W.
R. Bell, of Everett, will ask for a
new trial: The maximum punishment
' for the violation of the act is 0 .years
In jail and a $10,000 fine. . r . n

cents a ton last August, under an ad
vance authorized by the interstate com
merce commission, so that as to such
points from which the rate is now $1.15
a ton, the new rate, effective June 25,
will be 30 cents a ton higher, or $1.45,
an increase over present rates of 26
per cent. " " .
"It is appreciated that this advance,
coupled with the previous advance of
15 cents a ton, is a substantial in
crease and most likely will occasion an
increase in the cost of coal to the con
sumer in Portland, ' but the previous
rate of $1 a ton referred to is one es
tablished several years ago.
"It will be seen that as to the item
of transportation cost alone the in
crease in 1918 over 1917 is 39 per cent
and over 1915 161 per cent. The new
rate of June 25 on coal from Wash
ington points referred to Portland, rep
resents an advance of only 45 per cent
over the very low rate prior to 1915
under competitive conditions men
tioned." The protest against the advance of
the coal rates was made by the city
upon recommendation of Edward M.
Cousin, traffic expert in the employ of
the city.

It Is admitted by Major Deich that

the men are alleged to have partici
pated. It is but a further step. Major
Xeich said, toward cleaning up moral

Ed Abbey, a brother of M. H. Abbey,
was recently arrested by a member of

Jis hearing is set for today.
As an indication that city officers
are now ready to take a hand in the

officers of the spruce-production units
working at Newport, the City Council.

School Board Considering Flans of

The Benson Polytechnic High. School,
now being used by the Government as
an Army training school, must ex

The Army will ask that 600 men be
trained there aften the present training
period is ended. At present 700 men
are there, and the increased number
could be cared for easily during the
Summr, but 1 not 'during the regular
school period.
Several plans ara under considera
tion. By using the carpenters who are
being trained there the School Board
may erect a new unit to be. used for
barracks, mess hall and machinery
storage room until the war is over.
The expense would be practically
nothing except foi materials, and it
ivoull give the men training along
just the lines which they are in school
to get.
The School Board has one vacant
building which might be used by the
soldiers next Fall, but it is out of
the way and hard to reach from the
Benson. This building, the old Atkin
son School on the West Side, could
not be used under the terms of the
present contract with the Army, as it
provides that barrack buildings must
be near the training centen. It is
possible this clause might be waived

continent.
In addition every operator pledged
himself to give personal attention to
the forwarding of airplane stock from

this rate the demands of the United
States and allied governments would
be met.

able record for prompt and efficient
delivery to Eastern cantonments a
year ago and are pledged to excel
that record this year.
In addition to this every operator,
in response to an appeal from. Major
Everett G. Griggs, in charge of fir air
plane production for the Signal Corps,

stock. The allied governments are
crying lor it. I Know the industry Is
capable of producing it. I know you
n-.en want to produce it. Now go
heme and see what you can do to meet
this situation.
Personal Attention Solicited.
At the suggestion of W. H. Boner,
manager of the Weyerhauser mill at
Everett, the presidents and managers
of the various fir operations were
asked to give the production of air
plane fir their personal attention. It
is a detail, he pointed out, that de
serves the time and study of every
operator. The loggers will be asked
to co-operate. As the fir logs are de
livered they will be inspected and
those that are capable of producing
ail plane material will be diverted to
that use.
At the rate of delivery promised by
the manufacturers the Vancouver
plant will be able to cut fully 9,000,000
feet of fir airplane stock a month. At
this rate, Major Griggs assured the
meeting, the demands of the United

Standard Wheat Flonr.
A return to the manufacture and use
of victory bread, with 23 per cent sub
stitute and 75 per cent wheat flour, on
the part of bakers and hotel and res
taurant men of the etate for the Sum
mer is being authorized In notifications
sent from the State Food Administra
tion.
Warm weather brings to all large
baking establishments the problem of
rope and ropy bread. The use or tne
larger proportions of substitute mate
rials increases the troubles with rope,
it is said.
Rope in dough and bread is a para
sitic development or fermentation. It is
explained at the office of the Oregon
Food Administration. It renders the
dough stringy and spoils the bread by
making It sour. Development of the
rope, once it Is started In a bake-shop,
can be stopped only by such extreme
measures as destruction of every par
ticle of affected dough, substitution of
new equipment and painstaking cleans
ing of the mixing rooms. Bakers ire-
quently are obliged to tear out walls
and floors to eradicate tne germ whlcn
will start a new epidemic if given half
a chance.
Victory bread contains 25 per cent
of substitute materials, while war
bread, which the bakers and public
have been urged to make and use ex
clusively, contains 40 per cent of sub
stitutes.
For more than a month wheat flour
in Oregon has been withdrawn from
sale to the general public This action
was taken by the retailers to comply
with a request of the Food Adminis
tration. Similar action was taken In
several other states.

What a tribute to the food value of chocolate!
If "men fight like the devil on chocolate" (and
we have Brigadier-General Waller's word for it)
those of us who must "carry on" at home can look
to chocolate as a food that will yield the utmost
strength and nutriment in proportion to the cost.
In Ghirardelli's Ground Chocolate you get
chocolate at its best. It is a sustaining,
nourishing food an ideal blend of
pure cocoa and finest sugar.
