BRIGADIER
GENERAL
DISQUE HONDR GUEST
Head of Spruce Division Enter
tained at Banquet.
W. L. CORBETT PRESIDES
JD all room of Multnomah Hotel Con
Tertcd Into Miniature
Spruce Forest.
In a -ast dining-hall that had for en
vironment a striking replica of the deep
woods of Oregon such as the camps of
the iosger-soldiers were pitched in,
Brigadier-General Brice P. Disque. com
Tnaniiinir officer of the Spruce Division,
was the guest of honor last right at a.
banquet tendered him in testimony to
the worth of his service during the
war period.
Devised by Portland business and
professional men as an expression of
their regard and esteem, the banquet
departed from the ordinary in every
respect. The big ballroom of the Mult
nomah Hotel was its setting, but not
even the initiate could have recognized
it in its camouflage of spruce and fir
decorations. For the time being it be
came a miniature forest of Oregon, with
caws and axes ringing, and with a typi
cal camp of the Spruce Division at the
end of the .clearing.
As General Disque and his staff en
tered the fir-broidered path that led to
the banquet hall, darkened as if at
night, a sentry stepped from the gloom
and challenged them each in turn, de
manding in tharp military form that
Ihey "advance- and be recognized."
At the turn to the banquet hall, when
the fir fronds were brushed aside, the
quests came upon the soldiers of the
aircraft programme plying ax and saw
find wedge at spruce logs, with the
floor carpeted deep with huge chips
nd flakey dust from the big crosscuts.
Mnaic Adda to Scat,
Nor did the picturesque setting end
(here, for before the guests were set
the tents of the soldier loggers, topped
with fluttering flag. The scene was a
camp at nightfall, when the boys relax
ivlth impromptu music and entertain
ments. There was the inevitable accordion,
wheezing delightfully away at patriotic
tunes and old favorites: there was the
Charlie Chaplin of tho camp, and there
was the camp quartet. In all respects
it was just such a scene as the amazed
tall timber of Oregon and Washington
has witnessed in scores of camps at
nightfall since the order was issued
that spruce, and more spruce, was es
sential to whipping the Hun.
Kach number of the programme was
heartily applauded by the guests, then
assembled at the long banquet tables,
with the ranks of evergreen all about
them. All of the entertainers were
soldiers of the Spruce Division, eta
tioned at Vancouver Barracks.,
Members of the Second Provisional
Kegiment Harmony Quartet were Cor
poral Lewis, baritone and director; Ser
geant Ramey, first tenor; Sergeant
Whyte, second tenor, and Private Uran,
bass, with Private .Newton as accom
panist. Frivato Brownstone was the
accordion artist, while music through
out the evening was provided by the
orchestra of the First Provisional Regi
ment. Private Jack Nash strummed the
'' banjo to repeated encores.
H. L. Corbett Toaitmaitrr.
Acting as toastmaster, Henry L. Cor
bett spoke briefly of General Disque's
service as commander of the Spruce
Division and of the esteem that Port
land citizens freely extended to him as
his straightforward efficiency became
manifest in results that contributed
largely to victory.
Introduced by the toastmaster, Edgar
B. Piper paid testimony to the value of
General Disque's notable service in air
craft, production. Mr. Piper told of the
battle line, as he saw it in France,
where the spruce of Oregon, felled and
shaped by the Spruce Division, had
taken wing in battle against Germany.
The efficiency of the allied and Ameri
can aircraft, as visibly demonstrated,
afforded the speaker opportunity to
bring before his hearers the vision of
how much the soldier-loggers and their
commander had accomplished and made
possible through the months of toil
back home.
In his response General Disque made
no rhetorical claims, but spoke plainly
and without verbiage of the task as he
found it, as he and his men tackled it,
and as they had progressed to capacity
production of airplane stock when the
armistice was signed and the- order
came to discontinue operations.
In substance, General Disque's re
marks were an accounting of his stew
ardship, giving actual figures and sta
tistics of work accomplished and pro
duction achieved. He gave direct and
emphatic credit to the loyalty with
which the men and officers of the
Spruce Division Served, and which made
possible the achievement of the seem
ingly impossible the task of filling in
full the pressing demands of America
and her allies for spruce, and more
spruce.

JUNCTION MAN IS KILLED
Automobiles, Without Lights, Crash
on Pacific Highway.
EUGENE. Or., Dec. 19. O. P. L. Ol
son, of Junction City, died this morning
of injuries received last night in a
head-on automobile collision near
Junction City, and Morris Koon. driver
of the car in -which Olson was riding,
was badly bruised.
The accident was due, it was brought
out in the Coroner's inquest this after
noon, to the absence of lights on- either
car. Mr. Koon, who was driving a light
car. was going north when he first
saw the heavier machine driven by Ole
Peterson, also of Junction City, ahead
of him. Mr. Koon said he thought the
machine vas traveling in the same di
rection he was. and turned to the left
to pass it. This placed him directly in
the path of Peterson's machine, and
the cars collided while going at a speed
of 20 miles an hour. The larger ma
chine was forced off the road and
slightly damaged, but Peterson was
unhurt.
The Coroner's jury reported that
Olson met his death as the result of
an "accidental collision."
DOCTORS HELD NEGLIGENT
Failure to Report Influenza 'Cases
Stirs HealtU Officers.
That doctors have become negligent
in reporting influenza cases since the
quarantine ruling went into effect was
the belief expressed by health offi
cials yesterday following a falling off
In the number of new cases reported
while deaths have - increased.
Twelve deaths have been reported
each of'the last two days, while new
cases totaled S3 Wednesday and 73
yesterday. Doctors who formerly re
ported 10 and 15 cases a day now are
reporting only one or two, while some
are falling to report, it is said.
Strict enforcement of the quaran
tine law with consequent complaints
from those kept at home is believed
to have- had an influence in the physi
cians' .action.
Following thorough cleansing and
fumigating of the City Auditorium, the
building will be re-opened for use of
the public at a community sing New
Year's eve, according to Hal White,
manager of tho Auditorium. The last
patients were removed Wednesday.

PEACE WORK HELD AMPLE
F. A. Vandcrlip Declares Transfer
of J 5,000,000 Men Possible.
NEW YORK. Dec. .19. It is possible
to transfer the 15,000,000 men now en
gaged in war activities to works of
peace without greatly disturbing con
ditions in this country, Frank A. Van
derlip, president of the National City
Bank, declared in an address before
1000 credit men here last night.
"I would not argue that we can make
this transition without any jolt," he
said. "There will be some, but I be
lieve that the demand for labor is so
great that it is possible to make the
transition without disaster."
FRENCH LEAGUE PLAN
OUTLINED AT LENGTH
Society of Nations Declared to
Be Most Desirable.
ARBITRATION MAIN FEATURE
Members of Hague Court Assured
Support of Project by Pre
mier Clemenceau.
PARIS, Dec 19. Baron d'Estour
netles de Constant today gave the As
sociated Press the French plan for
bringing about a society of nations
which the baron and Senator Leon
Bourgeois, formerly French Premier,
presented to Premier Clemenceau sev
eral days ago. The French Premier
gave assurances that the principle of
a Society of Nations would be Inscribed
at the head of the French programme
before the peace congress.
Baron d'Estournelles de Constant and
M. Bourgeois were French delegates
at both peace conferences at The
Hague, and are the French members
of the permanent International Court
at The Hague. .They said they had
presented their plan to Premier Clem
enceau with some apprehension, as he
had not yet declared himself In favor
of a league of nations, having been
regarded as typifying the fighting
spirit which has sained him the name
of "Tiger."
. . Details Are Given.
They first handed the Premier a let
ter, which said In part:
"We re convinced that a durable
peace can be assured only in substitut
ing for a reign of force that of or
ganized right. It is the object of our
association to aid In the constitution
of a society, first of part, and then of
all the nations. This society should.
according to recent declarations ot
President Wilson, be a most essential
party in securing the maintenance of
peace."
Explaining the detailed plans pre
sented to Premier Clemenceau. Count
d'Estournelles de Constant said to the
Associated Press:
'The essentials of the plan are:
"First Compulsory arbitration with
out limitation or exception. This leaves
out the old exception of questions in
volving national honor and-dlgnity.
"Second Limitation of armaments.
"Third The establishment of a coun
cil of administration of the nations for
the formulation of new international
administration and international law
procedure.
Compliance to Be Enforce.
"Fourth The application of 'sanc
tions' for maklnsr effective the decis
ions of the Society of Nations. "Sanc
tions' is a diplomatic expression mean
ing the various steps for enforcing
compliance. They are four-fold.
"First, diplomatic sanction. The So
ciety of Nations shall break diplomatic
relations with any recalcitrant nation
and give his passports to the Ambassa
dor or Minister representing that na
tion. "Second, judicial sanction. Whereby,
the courts of all countries will be
closed to a recalcitrant nation. It will
thus practically be quarantined and
placed outside the pale of civilized
states.
"Third, economic sanction. Whereby
the economic means of all nations shall
be directed against any recalcitrant
state. This economic weapon of the
united nations will be a great power
In isolating any offending nation, cut
ting off its foodstuffs and raw mater
ials, when It acts in defiance of the
Society of Nations.
Military Sanction Difficult.
"Fourth, military sanction. This Is
the last sanction by which the joint
nations would undertake to enforce ob
servance of the decisions of the Society
of Nations. This military sanction is
the most difficult and delicate of all
the questions involved in creating the
Society of Nations.
"There will be different views con
cerning the military enforcement of
peace. It is the purpose of our organ
ization to reconcile these differences
and secure some workable basis of
agreement. One view is for a small in
ternational military force, or the nu
cleus of an international fleet. Others
regard this as unnecessary and prefer
to rely on the moral force of the united
nations. Some may wish to give up
compulsory military service, but retain
the navy.
"These divergent views must be re
conciled. That is the main task which
M. Clemenceau asked us to undertake.
We regard our meeting with the Pre
mier as highly important in inscribing
the principles of a society of nations at
the head of the programme, for that we
understand to be in accordance with
the desires of President Wilson to place
the high ideals of this united stand
against further warfare at the very
forefront of the peace congress and
adopt it as the guilding principle in the
determination of many questions before
the conference."
TRAMP SOCIAL GAY AFFAIR
Three Hundred Portland Elks Join
In Riot of Fun.
Portland Elks held their annual
"Tramp Social" at the Elk Temple last
night and had a riot of fun.
The programme at the temple was
proceeded by a parade of Elks, all
dressed In the oldest clothes they could
find or make, through the down-town
streets, accompanied by the Elks' band.
Judge Robert G. Morrow acted as
toastmaster for the evening and proved
that a judge Isn't always what he
seems to be. Several musical numbers,
boxing bouts between Joe Gorman- and
Abe Gordon and Weldon Wing and
"Muff" Bronson. Hula dances by mem
bers of the organization, attractively
attired, and a general roughhouse made
up the programme.
A grand finale was brought about by
the presence of the Lyric rosebud
chorus.

GERMANY'S RUIN FORECAST
Greatest Calamity Befalls Defeated
Nation, Says Ratlienau.
LONDON. Dec. 19. "Germany Is
ruined for generations, politically, in
dustrially and economically." Dr. Wal
ter Rathenau, president of the German
General Electric Company, is quoted as
declaring to the Berlin correspondent
of the Daily Express.
"It is the greatest calamity that has
happened to any country in 2000 years,"
added Dr. Rathenau, who is one of the
largest employers of labor in Ger
many. "If the Indemnities are high, we shall
have nothing with which to expand
our industries, and there will be a
great tide of emigration, probably to
South America, the Far East and cer
tainly to Russia. The result will be
the Balkanization of Europe."

How Is Your
"Culebra Cut"?
The Panama Canal is a clear passageway
as far as the Culebra Cut. But Gold Hill
has a way of slipping into the cut. And
until dredfes can clear the channel, the industrial
schedule of the world is out of gear.
How about your own canal? The intestinal canal
Is a clear passageway as far as the large intestine.
There, if you become constipated, waste matter is
allowed to stagnate. It becomes unnaturally dry and
undergoes abnormal fermentation and putrefaction.
Germ activity is increased. Your whole system is
out of gear. Pesult, the production of irritating and
poisonous substances, which are absorbed into your
blood and carried all over your body, liable to pro
duce disease anywhere. The longer such stagnation
is allowed to exist, the harder it is to clean out the
canal. 90T0 of human disease originates in the
"Culebra Cut."
If engineers tried to blast out the slide from Cul
ebra Cut they would have more slides to cope with.
If you try to blast out accumulated waste from your
Culebra Cut with pills, salts or purges, you will in
crease your constipation and next time you will
have to take stronger medicine in a larger dose.
You can't dredge your canal.
You can clean it out with Nujol.
Nujol softens the mass, and supplies the intestinal
canal with sufficient moisture to replace deficient'
mucus. It causes the obstructive waste matter to
pass gently out of your system at a regular hour,
absorbing and removing the poisons as it goes.
Nujol regularity keeps the traffic of your mind and
body operating on schedule.
You admire the Panama Canal system. Why not
safeguard your own? Your druggist has Nujol.
Warning:
NUJOL is sold only in sealed bottles bearing the
Nuiol Trade Mark." Insist on Nujol. You may suffer
from substitutes.
