British Premier Declares Tse of
' Military Means to Enforce
Treaty Is Discouraged.
SAX REMO, April 25. (By the A
sociated Preaa.) The agreement be
tween Premiers Millerand and Lloyd
Cleorge concerning: Germany-was pre
sented to the supreme council lata
this afternoon and will form the basis
of a very stiff note to Germany which
will be ready for signature tomorrow
by Great Britain. France and Italy,
Japan and Belgium. The United States
will not eisn the note.
TCither the declaration or an au
thoritative condensation will be made
public tomorrow, Mr. Lloyd George
announced tonight.
Military Means Dlnpoaragf d.
"The document is the result of pri
vate conversations between premier
Millerand and me, which resulted in
complete agreement upon the policy
to be adopted." eaid the British prime
minister.
Mr. Lloyd George, replying to ques
tions, also said:
"We have discouraged the use of
military means to enforce the treaty
when not necessary to use them. My
tatementto the house of commons is
perfectly clear. My view is that Ger
many should not be prevented from
restoring order in Germany. No one
has the right to say we are not pre
pared to use military force to enforce
the treaty."
Tentative Payment Reported Set.
It is understood from another source
that one extremely important point in
the agreement between the premiers
defines it to be in the interest of
franc to fix, at a meeting to be held
early in May in a Belgian city where
representatives of the allies will

Hum Germany must pay the allies im
mediately. ' It is even said that the allies have
tentatively fixed an annual payment
of 3,000.000,000 marks, pre-war ex
change, for 30 years, as a suitable
payment, but that the German gov
ernment will be asked in the mean
time to make the proposal of a lump

BERLIN, April 25. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Forty billion marks
ttre involved in the government's pur
chase of the federated states rail
ways, which has been approved by
the national assembly. The annual
interest Incurred in the nation's huge
investment is estimated at 14 million
marks. The government is not over
sanguine with respect to early returns
from the investment. In view of the
dilapidated condition of the railways,
the delayed output from repair shops
and continued demands by the men
for wage-increases.
"The peace treaty we have com
pleted does not present a bewltch

desirable qualities in political and
economic directions," said Dr. Bell,
minister of transport, in the national
assembly, just before the vote was
taken. He described the transaction
a one of the most gigantic ever ef
fected by any parliament.
The minister added that more than
a million employes of the railways
will be on the government payroll.
WAR WIDOWS COMING FAST
Council Finds Women Immigrants
Far Outnumber Men.
New York. Foreign war widows,
who are pensioners of their govern

ducers, mostly women, constitute the
larger part of the immigrants now
coming to this country, according to
a statement issued here today by
the inter-racial council, of which
Coleman Du Pont is chairman.

riod of several months, the immigra

women and girls have formed not less
than 60 per cent and that In the last
few weeks they have outnumbered
the men two, and sometimes three,
to one. ' So marked has been the
relative increase of women immi
grants that the fact appears to be
well established, the council declares,
that some of the foreign governments
are enforcing a policy which encour
ages and stimulates the emigration
of women, but which places obstacles
in the way of able-bodied men work
ers who may wish to come to the
United States.
Meanwhile, emigration from Amer
ica is made up almost entirely of men
who have given up employment
factories, mills and mines to return to
their homeland, taking with them
savings estimated conservatively at
$L'000 for each emigrant. Since the
signing of the armistice, 275,000 emi
grants have left the country and au
thorities believe that approximately
1,125,000 more will leave when pass
port regulations and transportation
-venditions permit.
To consider the problem, the nation
al conference on Immigration wilj- be
held here Wednesday, attended by
representatives of Industry, agricul
ture, finance, labor and various racial
croups. The chief purpose Is to d
termine upon a policy of selective
Immigration that will best serve the
interests of the country and to rec
oinmend the adoption of such a policy
by congress.

COUNTY AGEfffS VALUABLE
POSITION'S SAID TO BE HELD
BY MEN OF HIGH TYPE.
Visitors X-'rge Advertising Pacific
Northwest Among Farmers of
East and Middle States.
That the farmers of the east and
middle west have little conception of
the unusual advantages and oppor
tunities in the Pacific northwest for
farming of all kinds, and that the
most effective kind of advertising
which this section could do at this
time would be directed towards this
class of people, is the declaration of
A. H. Billingslea of New York, eastern
representative for a number of farm
papers, including Western Farmer,
published in this city. In this belief
he is etrongly seconded by his brother,
J. C. Billingslea, agent for farm pa
pers at Chicago.
The two Mr. Billlngsleas were in
Portland last week, having just con
cluded a tour of the most productive
areas of Washington. Under the
guidance of the county agents, they
were given a glimpse of the wheat
fields of the I'alouse, the orchards
of Walla Walla, Yakima and We
n a tehee; the berry lands of the Puyal
lup, .Puget sound dairy farms, .and
then the Willamette valley.
"Keep your county agents on the
job," was the advice of A. H. Billings
lea. "I was greatly impressed with
the high type of men occupying these
positions in the northwest states. Do
not run the danger of losing them
through inadequate pay, because they
are leading in a scientific farm de
velopment, the value of which It is
hard to calculate. If the farmers of
the east and middle west could just
be made to realize the opportunities
in Oregon and Washington there
would be a great rrsh of farm-seekers
to this country."
DR. WALDO STARTS DRIVE;
White Temple Sermon Is "Accom
plishing the Impossible."
At the White Temple yesterday
morning Ir. William A. Waldo,
speaking on the topic Accomplishing i
the Impossible," said in part:
Faith, hope and love is our slo-1
gan this week. We must have faith j
n our solves, raltn in otnera ana
faith In the ministers. Don't think
for one minute that we are evangel-
sed; don't think America is christian
zed. We Americans have lost con
fidence In our fellow men and women.
This all must be changed.
This great work that we are
undertaking this week, and going to
accomplish, must bring about a
change, for wonders have taken place
already and more are going to take
place. As you go out, on this drive
for $1,045,000 in the state of Oregon
don't apologize for your work. You
didn't apologize when you went out
on the war drives, and this drive is
far greater than the war drives. It
is a drive for the world, for the
church is on trial this week. Are
you going to help bring in the ver
dict? You should, for if is going to
be victory for the church.
Then, too, we should make the
pledges worthy of ourselves. Bring
God into this drive, this movement
which means so much to the world.
Be liberal. Will any man dare to
rob his God today? 1 say 'No.'
If we are going to counteract the
work of the devil, of the I. W. W.,
in this and other countries, then we
must act now. We have gone into
this work with a vengeance. Let us
not criticise the way it's being done.
We know It Is God's way and there
fore the campaign is possible.
Horace .Mann said once that $100.-
000 was not too much to save one
bay if that boy was his. There
fore, I say $100,000,000 is not too
great a sum to save the world for
Christ."

"For a disciple of Chris to walk

"for nothing else recommends the re

CHURCH DECADENCE DENIED
Dr. W. T. McElveen Asserts Chris
tianity Vital Force.
"Hitherto the church has been mo
afraid of doing something that was
ecclesiastically improper that it has
left unattacked a number of things
which were politically and economi
cally improper." So said Dr. W. T.
McKlveen in his sermon Sunday morn
ing at the First Congregational church
on "The Changing Church for the
Changing Time." His text wu "The
gates of hell shall not prevail against
the church."
He said: "Nothing, not even hell,
can slay the church. Some unsympa
thetic critics are saying that the day
of the church is drawing to a cose,
and that the church should be scrapped
like an antiquated piece of machinery.
But Christianity is no dying faith. It
is splendidly vital. Neither Is the
church moribund. The church wlli
not pass out of existence.
"It would be an unmixed evil If the
church should cease to be. If the
church did not exist, we would be4
compelled to create churches. There
are no institutions in the world that
are capable of replacing the church.
Multitudes of men and women treat
the church with indifference, and some
of them treat it with cbntempt, but if
the church went out of business many
of the things they hold dear and which
make life enjoyable would cease to
be. Roger Babson, the eminent econo
mist, declares that if the chinch went
tut of existence the ownership of pri
vate property would be impossible."

VIRTUES ARE AS RAINBOW
Rev. George II. Bennett Gives Scr-j
moil on i owi-t vi truss. j
"Power of the Cross" was the sub
jectject of Rev. George H. Bennett,
pastor of Patton Methodist church, in
his sermon delivered last night.
"The world is attracted to the cross
by the glorious personality of the
Savior," he said. "Listen to his dying
words; you will discern his perfection.
"On the cross Christ was the pledge
of God's fidelity to us. In death the
seven virtues were radiant as the
seven hues of the rainbow. See them
in his parting words:
"Prudence is seen in his thought-
fulness of mother and her adoption by
John, when Jesus said: "Woman, be
hold thy son son, behold thy mother.
Hope beamed in his promise to
the dying thief: 'This day shalt thou
be with me in paradise.' Love glowed
in his prayer: "Father forgive them,
they know not what they do." Justice
echoed In his cry: 'My God, why hast
thou forsaken me? Faith added lus
ter to his resignation when he said:
'Father, into thy hands I commend my
spirit.' Temperance was shown when
he cried: 'I thirst," but refused drink.
And when the throbbing heart could
bear no more of ingratitude, fortitude
declared: 'Jt is finished.' To be drawn
to Christ is to become like him, vir
tuous in- life and perfected in death."

has been built from The Pas to the

For the remaining 82 miles the grad

Hatchet
and Blood-Soaked Over-
alia
Located in Home of
Wolf Family.
TURTLE LAKE; N. D.. April 25.
Several clews were discovered here
today by authorities Investigating the
death of eight persons whose bodies
were found on the Jacob Wolf farm
near here yesterday, apparently the
victims of a mysterious murder.
Wolf, his wife, their five children
and John Hofer. 13 years old, hired
boy, were the victims.
A double-barreled shotgun was
found in a swamp one mile north of
the Wolf farm today. Footprints In
the mud on the shore indicate a man
had approached and thrown the gun
into the water.
Another clew was a pair of blood
soaked overalls found In the kitchen
of the Wolf home. A hatchet was
found in the kitchen yesterday.
At the coroner s Inquest, which be
gan this morning, it was brought out
that some of those killed were mur
dered with the hatchet and the others
shot.
John Brekken, a farmer, testified
that he had seen two suspicious-look
ing men walking rapidly away from
the direction of the farm shortly after
noon Thursday. The crime is believed
to have been committed either Thurs
day or Friday.
Wolf was considered well-to-do and
his property Is estimated to be worth
between $25,000 and $30,000. He had
often told friends he kept a large
amount of. money in a small safe at
home and the authorities are con
sidering the possibility of theft as
a motive.
Emma, eight months old, the only
member of the Wolf family to escape
death, is being cared for by neigh
bors.
When found she was lying In
cradle beside an open window.
