Portland's campaign today will open
with a decisive attack upon Incomes
and bank accounts that seem to war
rant larger -subscriptions than those
already recorded. At yesterday's meet
ing unanimous agreement was reached
in the plan of campaign which will be
pursued until the city passes its quota,
and which was embodied in the follow
ing resolutions:
"Whereas, from the canvass made
to this date by the liberty loan organi
sation for subscriptions to the fourth
liberty loan, it conclusively appears
that there is a very substantial num
ber of men In professions and business
vocations in good circumstances and
who enjoy eubstantlal Incomes, but who
have not subscribed in proportion to
their resources, but are permitting the
more prominent capitalists and the
laboring men to assume the burden at
hand; now, therefore, be it

Wealthy Contractor Shirker.
It Is apparent, declare Liberty Temple
officials, that many solicitors are fail-
lag to secure proportionate aubscrlp
tions from citizens well able to make
the investment, and are being set aside
with subscriptions ' for a single bond
where dozens might well be purchased.
Illustrative of this is the authentic
etory of a wealthy contractor who
bought a $50 bond. When his pledge
card was checked at Liberty Temple
evidence was produced to show that he
was amply able to subscribe a far
larger amount and that his business
was thriving. A special solicitor
visited blm and met his rebuffs with
absolute refusal to leave until the mat
tar had been threshed out. The con
troversy closed with a liberty loan sub
cription for $5000.

again this morning with Instructions
to close the campaign at the earliest
possible moment by the exertion of
every ounce of energy and persuasion
at their command. It is considered
probable that the city's quota, with
loyal response on the part of those so
licited, will be fulfilled tomorrow.

by some as the close of the campaign.

Hart Wants to Fight.
Bill Hart is too old for flrst-lln
fighting, but he Is anxious to take a
whack at the Hun. Therefore, follow
ing the example of Theodore Roose
velt and others, he has written to the
War Department asking permission to
form a regiment of Rough Riders.
Nearly all of the Rough Riders In the
world are at Los Angeles at the present
time, working for various film con
cerns, but Biil's ambition la not likely
to be realized. No, Uncle Sam wel
comes able-bodied scrappers, rough
riders or otherwise, but he frowns on
the volunteer regiment stuff.
What) Pictures Cost.
The statistician of the World Studio
at Fort Lee has spent some interesting
time In working out the figures of
uat what a production costs and his
work forms the basis of a conservation
propaganda which should have a far-
reaching Influence.
The nominal time for the filming
of a story, he says, is based on a
four weeks' schedule. This arranges
for delays growing out of weather con
ditions.
Each picture averages 300 scenes.
With a working day of eight hours this
gives the daily quota of 12 hi scenes on
a 24-day basis. The average cost of a
picture is $25,000. This makes the cost
of each scene. Including titles and sub.
titles, JS3.33. A day's work represents ! Agnew, who died with the American

Mary to Aid Red Cross.
At the request of Mary Pickford,
arrangements have been made at the
Hollywood Red Cross Shop, 1723 Mc
Cadden. PL. Hollywood. Cal.. for the
organisation of a Mary Pickford Pic
ture Fund, the proceeda of which will
be used by the Red Cross in war work.
Every photograph sent out by Miss
Pickford bears a request that the re
ceiver send 25 cents in stamps, which
represents the cost of the picture, to
the Mary Pickford Picture Fund at the
Hollywood Red Cross Chapter. An aver
age of 2860 pictures Is sent out each
month, and it is hoped by the Red Cross
Chapter to establish an income through
this fund of $1000 a month.

Marvelous Spirit of Patriotism Among
People East of Cascades Declares
Jadgre John H. Stevenson.
Arriving at 6 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon and having covered 1301 miles
when the machine stopped In front of
the Liberty Temple, the Yellow Demon
party's first announcement was that
state committees which may be selected
to handle future liberty loans need
never worry about interior and South
ern Oregon counties doing their part.
"There is a marvelous spirit of pa
triotism east of the Cascades." said
Judge John H. Stevenson, "and al
though present demands are heavy, I
have no hesitation in stating my belief
that the people out in the wheat belt,
the sheep camps and on the cattle
ranges are ready to put up their last
cent to back their boys In France to
win:
"Wherever the Yellow Demon was
booked to appear, there tha people gath
ered from the towns and the farms,
and it was "literally impossible to meet
all the demands for meetings that came
to us as we passed through the country.
At Fort Rock for Instance, we held
a street meeting with 7o persons pres
ent. Somewhere they secured an organ
and dragged it to the steps in front
of the abandoned L W. W. hall. With
a wind blowing a gale and sand pouring
into the instrument through every
crack, those people sang patriotic songs
and cheered the speakers.
"In that vicinity there is an absolute
failure of crops and farmers do not
know how they will get through the
Winter. The liberty loan committee did
not really expect any subscriptions from
those people, but did determine to ask
for $1000. The subscriptions totaled
$1400 when our party left, and there
were others to hear from.
'That is a sample of what we found
everywhere."
SHAHEI TORAII RAISES $21,000
Jewish Residents of City Respond to

More than $21,000 in pledges to the
fourth liberty loan have been made by

Hall streets, the patriotic rally held

members of the congregation doubled
their pledges, while others tripled, and
some quadrupled their subscriptions.
President A. Rosenfeid opened the
rally, assisted by Vice-President Bus
man. A committee consisting of M.
Barde. Frank Glick and J. Vidgoff was
in charge of the campaign among Jew
ish people, who made liberal response
to the call for funds. J. W. Barde act
ed as chairman of the evening and
introduced D. Soils Co en. Henry Mc
Ginn and Ben Selling, all of whom
made strong appeals for liberal sup
port of the Jewish people for the
fourth liberty loan.
The rally did not close until after
midnight, and subscriptions continued
to come in yesterday.
