THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY. JULY 26, 1918.
EMPLOYERS" BODY
TO BROADEN SCOPE
PROMINENT MATRON TO BE PATRONESS FOR KNIGHTS OF CO
LUMBUS MILITARY DANCE AT AUDITORIUM SATURDAY.
:Jlew Organization Now Is
Known as Industrial As
s sociation of Oregon.
?SMALL PLANTS TO BE AIDED
f (One of Objects of Change Is to Be
Better Able to Help Government
and. Prepare for After
War Period.
On account of changes brought about
by war conditions and a desire better
to assist the Government in the prose
cution of the war, which, it is believed,
can be done more effectively through
organized effort and co-operation, the
Employers' Association of Oregon, or
ganized in 1909, has changed its name
and incorporated under the name
"Industrial Association of Oregon."
The Employers' Association has a
membership of more than 300 of the
representative business concerns in this
city and throughout the state.
The new organization, the Industrial
Association of Oregon, has been incor
porated with a capital stock of $1000
by D. A. Pattullo, R. G. Littler, W. O.
Foiich, H. D. Kilham and F. A. Douty.
The incorporators are also members of
the board of directors, the other di
rectors being Ralph Hahn, C. E. Grelle,
8. C. Bratton. M. B. McFaul, Charles B.
Woodruff. H. E. Cowgill, O. W. Hos
ford. A. M. Hears, C. J. Parker and J.
R. Stuart. Thomas McCusker, secretary
of the Employers' Association, will be
retained as secretary of the new organ
ization. Greater Output Is Sought.
The association contemplates a wider
ecopc of activities in the upbuilding
and fostering of the various industries
of the state and particularly tne small
er industries, so that there will be an
increased output of Oregon products to
the end that cargoes may be supplied
to all steamship lines that shall seek to
take advantage of the world market
that unquestionably will be opened to
the Pacific Coast after the war.
"The restrictions that are gradually
encompassing the so-called non-essential
industries are likely to work seri
ous injury to many, and possibly put
some out of business altogether," said
Mr. McCusker yesterday. "No one be
lieves that it is the purpose of the Gov
ernment to do injustice to anyone, but
in order to win the war, over-zealous-ness
might work an injury where none
was intended. Without in any way at
tempting to conflict with the Govern
ment, the association will use Its ef
forts to secure consideration for these
industries.
"The association is looking forward
to the reconstruction period after the
war. Certain industries then will
cease, such as wooden shipbuilding,
and there will be a decided change in
others, also in living conditions. There
must be some place to absorb the
workmen who will be released from
war work, and if the so-called non-es-
eential industries are eliminated, what
Is to become of these men, since trade
and industry do not grow overnight.
but must be built up gradually?
War Soldier to Ciet Jobs.
"Other factors will enter into the
reconstruction period. Notably, the
women now employed in the various
Industries, who, without question, are
going to hold their places. There also
is the crippled soldier, who from pa
triotic motives, must be cared for. Most
important of all is the returning sol
dier, who will be a big factor In both
Industry and politics.
"Throusrh our association we are co
operating closely with the National
Association of Manufacturers and the
various state organizations. As secre
tary of the Portland organization, I am
a member of the National Council for
Industrial Defense, which meets twice
annually either in New York or Wash
ington. D. C.
"We have a free employment bureau
In connection with my office and assist
any wage earner who calls upon ua to
obtain employment, regardless of his
affiliations. We also assist business
men to obtain help whether they are
members of our association or not.

ing at the residence of Mr. and Mrs

itself into an entertainment in the

Hoberg Tripr will, put on an attract
lvo programme. The silver offering
will be for patriotic work.
The dance at the Irvlngton Club
Saturday night will be a jitney dance.
The committee had planned to have a
free dance, but the weather interfered
with the gate receipts, and there will
not be enough money for the train
ing camp fund, so the dance must
prove a source of income. The social
committee has arranged some attrac
tions and music will be of the best.
Among many others, Mrs. Carrie Den
nis and her daughter, Mrs. C. W. 6ro
ver, of Detroit, Mich., and Ruth D.
Grover, with Miss G. Bonita Hovenden,
are camped for a few weeks at Rock
away Beach. Mrs. R. Kelsey and
daughter, Helen, of Silverton, are their
guests.

Report as Directed Charge of
Desertion Will Not Be Pre
ferred for Present.
"He gave his address as 241 Couch
street, and I guess that explains why
he did not report for entralnment. as
they tell me that is the I. W. W. head
quarters."
Officials of Draft Board No. 2 were I
discussing the fact that five of their
men ordered to appear yesterday for
entralnment for Camp Lewis had failed
to report.
Christopher Brooks it was who had
registered from 241 Couch street. Of
ficers of the law immediately began
search for him.
For the first time disappointment was
voiced yesterday by Portland draft of
ficials over the number of inductees
missing from their quotas. It is said
that about 18 men who were to have
entrained here failed to appear. Tech
nically tney are now deserters, though 1
tne oincials prefer to use the term "de
linquents" for a few days. Dendinsr oos-
sible discovery that the men in ques
tion boarded the train without their
knowledge or that extenuating circum
stances may be discovered.
Boards' Work Difficult.
' tw"" of tne great amount uf
work involved some of the boards had
not yet definitely learned last night
just what members of their quotas were
missing. Preliminary lists were given
out oy other boards.
in some instances the officials are
sure they have to deal with cowardly
slackers. In other cases they hope to
learn that the missing men at the last
moment encountered some obstacle pre
venting their appearance for entraln
ment. Regardless of the cause of the
failure to report the delinquents will
be traced. The Government now has
extensive facilities for running down
aeserters and no time is lost in putting
them into operation. All men selected
for military service must serve or pay I
tne penalty.
Board No. 1 reports these selectives
for failure to appear yesterday: Charles
K. Vaughn. Herbert Eng. Kesto Sain,
Kahlkei Namba and Victor de Tour-
viae.
One Board Reports Five.
These delinquents are listed by board
No. 2: Christopher Brooks, Charles
Yerxa. Henry Brown, Clarence Good
win and Manlius Hyde.
Board No. 3 found Herbert Carlson
missing yesterday and wishes to know
what became of Sidney Will Mitchell
and Lorenzo Bonaduce, transferred
elsewhere, but failing to report inten
tion to go to camp.
Christen Chrlstensen and Vernon
Clark failed to appear for entralnment
with the quota of board No. 6.
Reports from two or three other
boards are expected to reveal the
names of selectives who, for some rea
son, did not present themselves to be
sent to camp.
PORTLAND, July 23 Dear Miss Tlng-le:
Can you glve a recipe for Japanese rice
cakes, a cookey that is not very sweet?
The Japanese serve them with tea. 1 have
been told the Japanese use no baklnc
powder and 1 experimented, but wlthoat
success. Cordially, MRS. H. A. D..
I THINK I know the kind of cakes
you mean, and have often eaten
them, but I have never seen a recipe
for them. I believe they are made
from a cooked rice paste, with or with
out egg white and a little sweetening,
and are baked something like waffles
in special Irons. I have never seen
the irons In this country.
Some day soon I will try to find time
to make a few experiments with waffle
irons, but In the meantime I will print
your letter in the hope that some
reader may oome to the rescue.
You can make excellent little cookies
with rice flour substituted by weight
for the white flour of an ordinary
recipe, but I judge that this Is not the
sort of thing you had in mind. ' Watch
this column, and if I can find a recipe
or succeed with my waffle iron experi
ments I will let you know.
There Is also a variety of rice cakes
that resembles Scotch shortbreafi made
with very little sugar and no baking
powder; but these take quite a good
deal of shortening,, and are therefore
not very suitable for wartimes.
PORTLAND, July 21. Will you clease
give a recipe for Spanish rice. Thankins
you, MRS. M. T. L.
"Spanish rice" has many variations I
give below two typical recipes. I have
others if you don't care for either of
these.
Spanish rice This combination of vege
tables makes a flavory accompaniment for
warmed up left-overs of meat or- fish:' 1
pint chopped tomatoes, 1 cup lice. 1 cud
chopped celery. 1 cup chopped ripe -olives.
or cup small raisins or 2 pickles, 14 cup
chopped, peppers. 1 tablespoon minced onion.
l teaspoon . sail. teaspoon paprika or
Spanish pepper (chill powder). Rob the
tomato through a sieve and heat, then add
the rice, chopped celery, seasoning andu
other ingredients and boll for five minutes.
Tnen put it on "the side of the range and
simmer for one hour until the ingredients
are thoroughly blended. A- hint of garlic
may be added if liked; cup cooked pea
is a good addition.
Spanish rice This Is a deservedly popu
lar dish and like the rice mixture given
above, is excellent to serve with beans for
meatless dinners: 4 teaspoons fat, 2 green
peppers chopped, 1 onion sliced. 1 cup rice,
Vi tablespoon paprika, bit of bay leaf. 4
large, ripe tomatoes or can tomatoes, 2
tablespoons sugar. 2 teaspoons salt. "4 tea
spoon white pepper or chill powdsr. A
"pinch" or two of ground thyme is a good
addition.' Heat the fat In a heavy frying
pan and in it brown delicately the peppers
and the onions. Remove and brown the
rice; add all other Ingredients. Cover and
let simmer on the back of the stove until
rice Is soft; add boiling water as the rice
swells. , -
