Plight or Enlisted Men Is Discovered by Red Cross Canteen Comman der at Union Station. In less than 24 hours from the time that attention was called to the plight of scores of soldiers passing through Portland, who have found it necessary to sleep on the floor of the Union Sta tion, arrangements had been made by J. L. Stannard. acting secretary of the Portland War Camp Community Serv ice, to care for these men. Mr. Etannard'a organization was srranted the use of the eeoond floor of tiie Phoenix building, corner Fifth aid Oak streets, by H. A. Hagedorn, and 100 cots wer requisitioned from Van couver Barracks. Most of these were in place last r.ight and half of them filled by tired soldier travelers, direct ed to these beds by Red Cross canteen workers at the station. Linen for the cots was provided by the Portland Red Cross Chapter, through co-operation of James B. Kerr, chairman. The plight of the soldiers and eailors was discovered by Mrs. Ferdinand E. Reed, in command of the Red Cross canteen at the station. Mrs. Reed per sonally roused 34 of the weary sleepers from their lowly berths and took them to a hotel Monday night. Mayor Baker, when informed of the situation. Im mediately turned the matter over to the War Camp Community Service. If necessary, further quarters will be obtained, said Mr. Stannard last night, and 300 or 500 cots as many as need ed will be provided for the benefit of homeward bound soldiers and eailors.

Orego- Many Cities Are Visited and Trip on Mediterranean Taken; Gen eral Pershing Seen. An unexpected meeting with General Pershing and, the Secretary of War in France is told by Sergeant Van W. Gladden, 20th Engineers, a Hood River volunteer in a letter to his brother, George W. Gladden, which gives the former's interesting experiences during a ten days furlough. Bordeaux, which was first visited, is described as "about the size of Port land." Touloure was next visited, and a Journey across the Mediterranean followed. Thence the party went to Cette and Lyons. Riding along the Rhone, eays the sergeant, he could, at nearly every stop, "see the Americans out over the fences, getting their mitts full of red grapes." Five days of the leave were spent at Aix-les-Bains. on the border of Switzerland. Side trips embraced one to the mountains, from which Mount Blanc was seen. It was at Bordeaux, on the return trip, that' the real denouement came. In the sergeant's words: "At Bordeaux we bad a piece of luck which I do not regard as an anti climax even to a trip of this kind. About 8 o'clock In the morning we were standing beside the tracks when we noticed a train standing by was a peculiar one. It had only four cars and a baggage car. The car to which we were nearest was an office affair, with typewriters, desks, phones, etc. Wt fell to talking about It. and then we noticed the face of the man sitting at the desk and filling his briar pipe for an "after-breakfast had a familiar look. "Gradually it dawned upon ua who it was Secretary of War Baker. As we looked over the rest of the train we noticed an officer with four gold stars on his shoulder, and you know there is only one man In the Amer ican Army who can wear anything like that. In a moment the two got off together, Pershing and Baker, and went through the station, followed by a group of officers." VANCOUVER JTROOPS FEAST Day at Barracks Spent Enjoyably by Men Unable to Go Home. VANCOUVER. Wash.. Dec 23. (Spe cial.)
