OVER TWO MILLION '
MEN WITH COLORS
Baker Gives Out Figures That
Show Progress Made in
, War Preparation.
REPORT MADE TO HOUSE
Attention Called, to Fighting Spirit
of American, Troops and Excel
lent Health and Morality
Conditions.
WASHINGTON. July 3. The United
States at the present time. 15 months
after entering the war, has 160,400 offi
cers and 2,010,000 men with the oolors.
These figures compare with 9524 offi
cers and 202,610 men 14 months ago.
The above figures appear in a review
of the 15 months of war prepared by
Secretary Baker and laid before the
House by Chairman .Dent, of the mili
tary committee...
The statement shows that 286 com
bat airplanes had been delivered up -to
June 8 and that the production rate of
this type then was 80 per week. More
than 2000 Liberty motors have been
delivered and the weekly production
rate was 116 during the first week in
June.
More than 900 heavy Browning ma
chine guns were delivered during May
and the deliveries for that month of
light Brownings totaled 1800.
"Sufficient rifles are now being re
ceived," the statement says, "to equln
an army division every three days.
More than 1,300,000 rifles had been pro
duced and delivered up to June 1."
Xo Man's Land Renamed.
Speaking of the morale of the army
In France the statement says:
"At the actual front In France there
Is something of a tradition in the use
of the term Ho Man's Land.' Our men
prefer to call it and to make it, "Yan
kee Land." "
Mr. Baker said the commission of
classification of personnel reports that
"a surprisingly large proportion of re
cruits asked to be placed in the most
hazardous branches of the military
service," and added:
"If a reply is needed to those who
say that the men of the National Army
are in camp because they have to be,
it is this: that those men are going
over the top because they want to go.
"Consensus of opinion is." continued
the statement, "that drunkenness In the
Army is completely under control, both
in the United States and France. You
may travel for weeks in France with
out seeing an intoxicated American
soldier."
Death Rate Is Low.
The statement shows that the death
rate per thousand among' all troops
In the United States for the week end
ing June 7 was 4.14 as against a rate
of 20.14 in the Regular Army in the
United States in 1898.
On June 5 the capacity of the hos
pitals in the United States was 72,667
beds, with new hospitals containing
14,677 beds under construction.
In France hospital facilities are being
provided for from 5 to 10 per cent of
the whole expeditionary force. The
Army Hospital Corps ic now composed
of 24,000 officers and 148.000 enlisted
men, exclusive of the Sanitary Corps
and Army nurses.
Deliveries of elementary training
planes up to Juno 8. Mr.. Baker said,
totaled 4495 and advanced training
planes totaled 820. The weekly pro
duction rate of advanced training
planes was 78 on June 8. On that date
also 37,250 airplane machine guns had
been delivered.
The most difficult undertaking in
outfitting an army is the manufacture
of heavy artillery, the statement said.
Sixteen plants had to be provided to
make mobile guns, most of them built
from the ground up.
Quantity Output Starting.
"But the artillery programme." Mr.
Baker added, "is now approaching a
point where quantity production Is be
ginning." To illustrate the enormous work of
the quartermastlr department, the fol
lowing purchases were noted: 2.D67.000
hammers: 6,121,000 axes, 10,870.000 files,
1.700,000 halters, 129,000 escort wagons,
26,000 combat wagons, 339,693 horses
and mules, 27,249.000 pairs of shoes,
2.340,000 pairs of rubber hip boots. 103,
02S.000 yards of denim cloth, 104,333,000
pairs stockings.
There are now 45,000 Americans en
gaged on railroad construction and
operation in France, and 22.000 standard-gauge
freight cars and 1600 loco
motives have been produced in this
country for service on the double-track
railroad from the French coast to the
battle section. Additional purchases of
both cars and locomotives have been
made abroad.
TROOP MOVEMENT AMAZDTG
British Are Surprised at American
Strength In France.
LONDON, July 8. Secretary of War
Baker's letter to President Wilson, an
nouncing that more than 1,000,000
soldiers had left the Cnlted States for
France, was published in the early
editions of the London afternoon news
papers under great headlines. The
statement was featured in connection
with the success of the American
troops in capturing the town of Vaux,
on the Marne front.
The figures came as a great surprise.
CUTICURA HEALS
E
On Face. Caused Disfigure
ment. Troubled 3 Years.
"I was troubled with itching eczema
on my face. It became worse and
caused disfigurement in the form of
red spots with flaky dead skin on the
surface. The intense itching caused
me to scratch and thereby aggravate
my face.
"I had been troubled for three years
when a friend advised me to send for
a sample of Cuticura. I afterwards
bought more and while using the
second box of Cuticura Ointment with
the Cuticura Soap I wes healed."
(Signed) Miss H. K. Hart. 271S-2nd
Ave., Seattle. Wash., January 15,1918.
Why not prevent these distressing
troubles by making Cuticura your

Executive of Idaho City Acts on Re
quest of Defense League; Tick,
et Is Nominated at Open
ing Session.
BOISE, Idaho, July 1. (Special.)
The outstanding feature of the Idaho
Non-Partisan League convention, which
opened here today, was a patriotic
demonstration on the part of the pub
lic which had the result of eliminating
A C. Townley, National president of
the league as a star performer at any
of the sessions. Townley will be per
mitted to attend the convention. He
will be seen but not heard, as he has
been forbidden to make an address.
At 10 o'clock this morning more than
600 members . of the Ada County De
fense League met in the park opposite
the theater In which the convention Is
being held.
They marched, four abreast, down the
business streets of the city to the City
Hall, where the Mayor was summoned
to the front steps. A spokesman for
the Defense League stated to the Mayor
the determination not to allow Townley
to speak, and appealed to the Mayor to
take legal steps to that end.
Hays Arts Promptly.
Mayor Hays promptly announced
that since the State Council of De
fense, the County Council of Defense,
and the 'Defense League, all were ad
verse ti the Townley speech, the Non
partisan leader would not be allowed
to make his address.
Orders were at once Issued to the
police to prevent Townley speaking.
and to see that he does not even enter
the convention.
The Non-Partisan League of Idaho

members of the Defense League, as
well as of politicians.
The league claims a membership of
15,000 in Idaho.
HARVEST PROMISES WELL
Umatilla County Wheat Yield Esti
mated at 4.000,000 Bushels.
PENDLETON, Or.. July 3. (Special.)
With harvest commenced in some
parts of nearly every district in the
county grain prospects still look very
gooa. it is principally barley that Is
being cut at this time but wheat har
vest will follow Immediately, and, in
some districts it is already under way.
The farmers are finding their yields
better, as they go into the fields, than
they expected a few weeks ago, the
grain apparently having filled well
within the past week or so.
The estimate of 4,000,000,000 bushels
for the county, which means at least a
75 per cent crop, still stands as about
the best figure for the 1918 harvest.
There is still a demand here for single
men for farm work. Married men are
available in small numbers but there
are no facilities on the ranches for
caring for their families.
SHIPWORKERS IN' CLASS V

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. July 2. Senator McNary today
secured from Provost Marshal-General
Crowder assurance that men of draft
age now employed in Pacific Coast
shipyards will not be called into the
service so long as they remain in that
employment.
This action was taken after Senator
McNary had presented the facts show
ing the shipyards will be greatly ham
pered if their men are drawn into the
military service. The Injury to them
consisting not only in the number of
men lost, but also In the loss of men
who have become experienced in ship
building worok. This decision of Gen
eral Crowder virtually places shipyard
workers in class 5.

Our Boys at the Front
Our boys are distinguishing
themselves by their cleanliness
and. jovial spirits while at the
Front. They believe that " Clean
liness is next to- Godliness."
It is an indisputable fact that
people can keep healthy and well
in no better way than by keeping
their bodies clean, insiae ana out.
Many thousands of people are
killed every year by allowing
toxic poisons to' accumulate
within the body, and, then they
fall victims to fevers and all sorts
of maladies with special names.
The only way to keep thoroughly
well is to drink plenty of water
daily, bathe frequently, and take
some good laxative like Doctor
Pierre's Pleasant Pellets. Cleanse
the system inside as well as out
side. These " Pellets " of Doctor
Pierce's, axe made of May-apple,
tack on that position, announced that
the Bols de Belleau hereafter would be
