PROPAGANDA IS SCENTED ftr filial of The Orcjronlan to Prlnl JuMiHcation of (kTmany's Con duct In War Commended. . Th Oregon utate organization of the American lea-ion yesterday started a . movement to urj.e newspapers through- out the country not to publish a aerie of articles on the world war by General Ludendorff. who w&s in command of the German armies at th time of their defeat. iow V. Walker, secretary of the Oregon state, organization yesterday sent telearams to this effect to the national headquarters of the American lea-ton. Senators MrNary and Chamber lain, Representatives McArthur and to th state organizations or asnintrton. California. Idaho. Montana and Utah. In the message Secretary Walker urges that all Influence be brought to hear to have the newspapers which have contracted for the L-udendorff articles cancel their contracts. Props canda Sc4. . "Th Ludendorff story can only be a fust i filiation of Germany's course of conduct in entering and continuing the war. said Caasiua R- Peck, president of Portland Post No. 1. Oregon branch of the American lea-ion. h- two parties are in conflict one ia right and the other ia wrong. It la inconceivable that it would be proper in any sense to spend good American gold In purchas ing from Ludendorff a brief in justifi cation of our enemy and in condemn tlon of ourselves. When cold history is written, based upon facts, and not upon the partisan theories of our enemy, the same should be published; but in tnis period of reconstruction and unrest, before the formal signing of the treaty of peace, we should not provide the red-flag. un-American Interests with propaganda to support those Prussian theories and ideals which we gave of our blood and treasure to conquer. Tae Orearealaa) Ia Conajratolated. "The Oregonian is to be congratu lated upon its action in refusing to pub lish the Ludendorff story, and I hope that all other newspapers of the Untted-I States will be likewise patriotically in clined to aid in the suppression of the German propaganda.' A large attendance is forecast at the regular monthly meeting of Port land Post No. 1. scheduled for Tuesday night, commencing at 8 o'clock at the armory. Tenth and Couch streets.

COURT-MARTIAL IS ENDED Transcript of Fort Stevens Case Sent to Vuhington. ASTORIA. Or.. Aug. 27. (Special.) The court-martial of Sergeant Frank L Rockwell for shooting Private Elmer Backlund haa been completed at Fort Stevens. The verdict has been for warded to the judge advocate-general in Washington and will not be made public for some time. Hacklund was shot and killed on the ntsrht of July 31. when, in company with Frank Kibble, he attempted to break into the medicine locker in the post hospital to secure some alcohol. O. Backlund of Seattle, father of the boy who was killd. attended the court martial. Backlund was 18 years old and Kibble was IT. Both had re-enlisted In the regular army after re ceiving honorable discharges. No improvement In the hide situation can be seen from any quarter. The market la practically at a standstill and prices are almost wholly nominal. There Is no indl cation as to when -conditions will better themselves. Local aealers estimate that values of hides are off fully IS to 20 cents a pound from the top and calf and kip skins from lO o IS cents. The following is an extract from the Chi cago Dally Hide Bulletin, under date of August-S3: -t -' -. ' " "Country hides The weak and very un settled oondltlou makes an unquotable mar ket Th. aiiI. nhua of the aituatioo which seems to be well defined Is thai lower rates are Inevitable, with the continuation of pres ent conditions. There has been no trading; to Indicate where Drices really are. but holders of hides who are desirous of liqul dating their stock, rather than waiting, have accepted much lower prices ia some locali ties, and the market Is broken wide open. Tanners continue disinterested and .those who buy only want a carload now and then, and pripes shrink on each preceding, sale. This Is shown by sales' of all weights from northwestern points of single carload lots. These sales Indicate the temper of holders, and this spirit seems to be extending north. south, east and west. It is generally con ceded that when trading does start up values will be considerably, lower than a few weeks ago. "Calf and kip Market easy and unsettled. No recent sales of packer or Chicago city calf, as buyers are not. interested. Outside city and countries not considered quotable at above 70 cents. Countries, 60 to 65 cents. Kip skins are weak. Outside cities and countries nominally around 55 cents. Coun tries somewhere around 50 cents. Dry hides weak and declining. Horse hides very weak and still lower prices expected on next move ment. "Dealers are not making any open offer ings, while buyers generally are holding off and talking much lower In line with the general easier tendency in all hide and skin markets.". . - .
