Landing marks at the Rawlins sta
tion have been almost obliterated by
snow, and Green River also reports
the flying post covered by a .white
blanket that makes It difficult to

Richter. pilot, and Second Lieutenant

supremacy of the world, declared
Julius H. Barnes, president of the

federal wheat director, in an address
delivered yesterday noon before a
large gathering of Portland business
men at luncheon in the chamber of
commerce dining hall. He warned
his hearers that American Industry
and commerce, boosted to an easy
lead during the war period, must pre
pare to fight strenuously henceforth
In the markets of the world.
Apropos of the basic guarantee
price for wheat Mr. Barnes declared
that it is fully Justified by the world
market and world production, and
that to reduce it through federal ac
tion would In effect create a subsidy
from the national treasury for the
American table, with subsequent dis
organization of other food commodi
ties. He further declared that the
increase In bread prices to the1 con
sumer has been fully Justified and is
not exorbitant, in that it has not kept
pace with the increase in wheat and
flour prices.

has for Its purpose the straightening
out of public understanding relative
to the grain corporation and the fur

BEND, Or.. Oct. ' 9. (Special.) At
the close of the hottest fight of the
convention, State Federation of Labor
delegates assembled here today
voiced their disapproval by a vote of
61 to 27 of a resolution to petition
President Wilson for the immediate
release of all individuals imprisoned
under the espionage act.
In place of the original measure, a
substitute patterned after the reso
lution indorsed at the American Fed
eration of Labor convention in At
lantic City was carried, demanding
.hat all laws fettering freedom of
speech and assembly be repealed on
the final ratification of the peace
treaty.
A dozen men clamored for recogni
tion when Delegate John S. Reed of
Bend, declared that he would vote
against any measure contemplating
the release of "such enemies of
Americanism as Eugene V. Debs,"
and continued applause greeted the
assertion of E. R. Dbbbs of Portland,
that the former socialist presidential
candidate is a sincere patriot and
humanitarian.
Nils Elfving of Astoria, world war
veteran with a record of 16 months
overseas service, turned the tide in
favor of the substitute resolution
when he told of the destruction of
stores of food and munitions intended
for American sold'ers and the attend
ant loss of life by factory workers.
"I have respect for the German who
fought in the trenches, but as for
these others, they should be shot, and
even that would be too good for
them," he shouted.
Stark Irg-ea Confidence.
C. M. Rynerson, editor of the Ore
gon Labor Press, commenting on the
attack made on Debs, said that he
had much respect for him as a man,
but little respect for his Judgment
shown in his conduct after the United
States was drawn into the war.' j
E. J. Stack, secretary of the federa
tion, voiced his belief that a sifting
out of prisoners would follow the
final coming of peace, and urged that
the delegates show their confidence
in the American government by vot
ing for the original resolution.
Radical action was attempted
through a resolution which con
demns the four L's as a "strike
breaking organization of scabs," and
which contemplated an active cam
paign to destroy, the organization. By
the time that the measure was re
ported out of the committee the word
"absorb" had been inserted to re- j
place "destroy," and in this form it i
was passed with but little discussion. I

CHICAGO, 111., Oct. 9. (Special.)
The red banner ot baseball's revolu
tion floats at last from the top of
the world.
After the SO-year drouth the Reds
of the new order earned a double tri
umph this afternoon by finally stop
ping the White Sox rush in one of the
wildest, weirdest batles that ever
closed out a championship.
The Reds finally triumphed by the
score of 10 to 5, but this score te'ls
no part of the fierceness of the stmg.
gle. It tells nothing of the first wild
Red rush that broke down the White
Sox defense and put tl.e game away
beyond even the last faint dream of
the White Sox fan. It tells nothing
of the las Chicago rally where, beat
en 10 tp 1 by brilliant pitching and
slashing hitting, tho tox rallied in
the eighth with one of the greatest
drives of the series, scoring four runs
and coming within half a breath of
adding two or three more.
It was In this wild and fantastic fu
rore, this amazing medley of hits and
runs and errors that Hnd v.nw
finally survived his second test and
finished with his second victory. It
was also in this type of the tempes
tuous finish that the Reds not only
achieved their delayed triumph, but
in addition lifted the National league
aloft for the first time in five bleak
and weary years.
Rnahing Tardea Win.
They triumphed by the margin ol
five games to three and in the final
battle they went back to old tactics,
rushed the attack, delivered the first
salvo of blows and set the stunned
Sox down for the count before the
game was ten minutes old.
No less than 232,000 fans paid in
$725,000 to witness the Red Jubilee
and the downfall of the great Chi
cago clan. So the Reds won out
before the greatest attendance and
the greatest financial harvest ever
known. They came back today in
the nick of time, driven to despera
tion by their last two defeats and
the sudden turn of events. They fi
nally won the decisive battle by an
impetuous onslaught on Claude Wil
liams that was not to be denied.
In his first two defeats Williams
had held the Reds to four hits a bat
tle. Today they nailed him for four
ringing blows before the second man
had been retired, driving his feeble
left-handed slants from right to left
in a resounding chorus of solid blows
before Kid Gleason knew what had
happened. Before he could rush an
other mate to his rescue the Reds had
peeled away Williams' hide in that
first rushing charge. P'our hits were
n, three runs were over and Duncan
vas on second befdre Bill James
finally came to the battered left
hander's relief.
Williams Goes Out.
Daubert and Groh had both cracked
singles, Roush and Duncan had both
pummeled long doubles, before the
hook took Williams to the cooling
m
shower, the first pitcher on record to
suffer three defeats in a world series
fray. The left-hander who had won
13 victories in the American league
had failed to achieve a single victory
from his three world series attempts.
When Rariden singled off James,
scoring Duncan with the fourth run
of the round, the series was over, for
he Reds kept on rapping away at
James for two additional tallies, until
Wilkerson relieved him in the sixth.
Here a bad misplay by Ray Schalk,
who had been one of the main heroes,
put on the final clamp.
With Eller and Rath on first and
second in this inning, Daubert, at-
emptlng to sacrifice, dropped an easy
bounder in front of the plate. Schalk.
Ith a world of time ahead, .threw
low in front of Weaver and in place
f completing a double play left the
bases full with no one out. Groh
then fanned with what should have
been the third out, but Roush and
Duncan came through with solid
smashes and three more Red runners
drifted across.
Eller Sails F.aally.
All this time Hod Eller had been
breezing along at a tidy pace. After
Liebold had singled and Collins had
doubled in the first inning, the shine
ball star tightened up, fanning
Weaver and Felsch and holding Joe
Jackson lo an Infield pop. He had
drifted along without trouble until
the third, when Jackson, who led both
teams at bat, lifted a high soaring
drive far into the right field seats
for the only home run of the entire
series. It was a mighty wallop and
the big crowd began to take on hope
again. But after this brief slip Eller
and his shine ball had once more sat-
