J. R. Shaw, Mill City Manager for
Hammond Lumber Company,
Seeks to Recover Money.
Under threat of prosecution for a
crime he never committeed, J. It.
Shaw, Mill City manager of the Ham
mond Lumber company, was coerced
Into paying the timber concern $12,
000 in cash last February, which he
now seeks to recover in the circuit
court, according to the allegations of
a complaint nied with County Clerk
Beveridge yesterday afternoon.
Shaw brings the action against the
Hammond Lumber company, George
B. McLeod', general -manager, and A. B.
Hammond, president. He had been
employed by the concern for 10 years
at Mill City, he asserts, and was a
stockholder in the company.
Bids were called for by the gov
ernment for timber on a 1300-acre
tract in Linn and Marion counties on
which both the Hammond company
and the Merrill Lumber & Shingle
company bid. The latter got the tim
ber with a bid of $2 a thousand feet,
compared with the former's bid of
$1.76.
Directly .after this transaction,
Shaw yesterday declared, the Ham
mond company accused him of vio
lating his trust and betraying the
concern for the benefit of the Merrill
company, in which he also held stock.
According to the complaint, he was
told that he was criminally liable and
would.be prosecuted, was abused and
called vicious names.
The demand was made of him, he
asserted, that he pay $12,000 cash
or the difference between the two
bids to the Hammond company and
compel the Merrill concern to trans
fer its preferential right of contract
to the rival company.
Though Shaw insisted the charges
made against him were wholly false,
he said he paid over the money d
manded on February 18. 1920. and was
trying to induce the Merrill company
to transfer its rights when he re
ceived independent advice which con
vinced him he was beinir defrauded.
He demands the return of the $12,000
with Interest.

AUTO TRADES ORGANIZING!
MEETING CALLED FOR. ECGESE
THURSDAY MORNING.
Several Hundred Invitations Al
ready Issued to Dealers located
in All Parts of State.
EUGENE. Or., April 12. (Special.)
Plans for the organization of the
Oregon Automobile Trades association
will be made here -rhursday morning
at 10 o'clock in the Eugene chamber
of commerce rooms.
This information was given out to
day by Ralph H. Mitchell, who made
the necessary arrangements with Will
O. Steel, pecretary of the chamber.
Mr. Mitchell said several hundred
invitations had been issued early in
the month to dealers of the state, out
side' of Portland. Of course the Port
land dealers have also been invited.
"We are meeting in Eugene," said
Mr. Mitchell, "because, geographically,
it is the best city for the dealers of
the state, who long have desired to
have an organization which would be
representative of the entire Ftate.
Several attempts have been made in
previous years to organize, the move
heretofore starting from Portland.,
There is the feeling that if the met
ing is held in this city it would be
easier to reach from a railroad stand
point, and there would be opportunity
for a more general representation. We
are planning to have not "only the
regular officers, but a board of nine
or mere directors, to b chosen geo
graphically throughput the entire
state. It will be a true state organi
zation, operated on business prin
ciples and by harmonious. Industry

WHY SOCIETY WOMEN WASH
THEIR OWN HAIR.
They do, not because it is a fad,
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and be
sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair it is never wise t
use a makeshift, but is always advis
able to use a preparation made for
shampooing only. Many of our friends
say they get the best results from
a simple herrre-made canthrox mix
ture. You can use this at a cost of
about 3 cents a shampoo by getting
some eanthrox from yotr druggist
and dissolving a teaspoonful in a cup
of bot water. This makes enough
shampoo liquid to apply to ail the
hair instead of just the top of' the
head, as with most preparations.
Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear in the
rinsing wMer. Your hair will be so
fluffy- that it will look much heavier
than It is. Its luster and eoftacss
will also dellsht you. Adv.
