SOUTH SANTIAM SPAN PLAN Linn Court Announces Steel Struc ture to Rise This Summer. . LEBANON, Or.. April 24. (Special.) Linn County Cd"urt has announced that a new steel bridge will be built over the South Santiam River at this city durlnsr the Summer to take the place of the old wooden bridge which has spanned the river here for many years. The present bridge was built In the Summer of 1875 and is now 40 years old. and the main span of the bridge is 240 feet, which) is an unusually long span for a covered wooden bridge. The new steel bridge will not have the long span of the wooden structure, as a concrete pier will be erected in the middle of the river which will shorten the span by nearly half.

FFISS F 0REG0N SOCIETY, xiu.nL, wukjcss ur UKliAINIZ,A110.N Iri PORTLAND THIS SUMMER, AND HIGH OFFICER u FOOD STORE RECITED Letter Received Here Says "England Can't Starve Us." GERMAN OFFICER WRITES Supplies on Hand, Financial Stand ing of Country and Readiness to Take .Own Bonds Mentioned . to Dispel Worry of Friends. Conditions in Germany as a result of the war and the feeling of the Germans toward the English and the American people are shown by a. letter received by Mis F. C. R. Grothgean. Seventh- Street Terraces, from her cousin, Thor- wald Diedrichsen. of Pries, Germany, an officer in the Bavarian forces. Rela tive to the possibility of the allies starving the Germans out, Mr. Diedrich sen says: The English will' not be able to starve us out, because we have enough grain, meat and potatoes to last until harvest time. Besides that, we have a lot of fruit and sugar, of the last there being immense stores on hand. You see, you need not worry. The luxuries we can spare in these times, and even these we need not spare, because we have the money to get them." ine eagerness with which the second issue of German bonds was taken up by the German people is also men tioned by the writer. He says: All Contribute to Bonds, "You certainly have read about the second issue of the government bonds. Just think of it! The subscription to taled up to more than 9.000,000.000 marks. No better Investment has ever been made by the German people. My self and Henry have contributed to It according to our means." Mr. Diedrichsen says that he reads with a great deal of interest the copies 01 we oregonlan and clippings from that paper sent him. He says that he indorses its editorials.' that Americans of German origin are first of all Amer icans. He adds, however, that the English cannot say that the Americans are English, even though the language and many of. the customs are the same. He continues: Ensland Blamed for War. 'I don't mean to "say that the Amer icans of German origin should not sym pathize with the land of their origin. dui tne sympathy must be within the limits of neutrality. At the same time antipathy must be kept within the Imit of neutrality. The result of that would be that America would etop making war material for our enemies, because it is contraband." in answer to one writer, whn v of the peril of his mother country, Eng land, Mr. Diedrichsen reitemten thai England is to blame for the war. He says: - , . "Who else but the Ens-llsh tiinoi,. have put their country into this peril? uia we want the war? By no means. It la the English " that wh ni 1. documents found."

M. Harris, occupant of a large green six- cylinder touring car, tear up a notice yesterday noon that he had previously placed there, warning her that the au tomobile was blocking the exit of the fire company ln violation of the law, he remonstrated. "Go back in there and tend to your own business," is the reply Airs. Har ris is alleged to have made. Lieuten ant Stark retired in some confusion to the engine-house. He was not with out resource," however, and telephoned police headquarters. Patrolmen Schaefer and Bales climbed into the police patrol and burnt up the blocks between Second and Oak and Fourth and Yamhill. When they arrived Mrs. Harris was not to be seen, but the automobile remained in the same position. Using a coll of rope the officers fastened the green car to the patrol and with Officer Bales at the wheel of the captured machine started for police headquarters. Mrs. Harris came out of a nearby entrance in time to see the patrol moving slowly away with the green car in tow. She ran, and, jumping on the running board of the car she had been driving, ex postulated with Patrolman Bales, to no effect. At police headquarters Mrs. Harris was booked' on a charge of violation of the traffic ordinance. When asked her age by Police Sergeant Thatcher. she replied: "Sixteen." But as 16 was too young for bookings on the police docket he wrote down "21." "Please be in court Monday morn ing, courteously said Sergeant Thatcher, and Mrs.. Harris walked out, climbed into the green car and drove away, minus the rope. LINCOLN PLAY IS FRIDAY "TUB CONGRESSMAN" IS OFFERI.KG OF JUNE '15 CLASS.

It Is proposed to place two of the directories on each intersection on the West Side between First and Tenth streets and between Washington and Morrison streets. The directories will be Inclosed in glass cases and sus pended from poles, where they can be seen easily and read by pedestrians. Each' directory will be different, being arranged to show the exact location of all street oar lines, buildings, etc., from where the sign is placed. Observer'a I'oaltlon Indicated. At the top of the directory are large red letters reading, "l'ou are standing 011 this corner." An arrow in red ex-, tends down, indicating the exact place the person reading the sign is stand ing. It cannot be seen from any other position. The person then can deter mine by consulting the map Just how far and in which direction he or she must go to reach a desired point. The center part of the directory or map shows the four blocks adjacent to the intersection upon which the sign is erected. Shown in the blocks adjacent are the names of the business build ings, public and semi-public buildings. street car lines and the building num bers. In another part of the map the names of all other buildings and pub lic places are shown with a notation after each giving the direction and the number of blocks to go from the sign to reach the point desired. Car Line LoratlOBi Shflw. The directories will show from each intersection the location of all street car lines, interurban lines, depots, streets in the business district between the river and Sixteenth street and the depot and Hall street; the routing of all street cars; detailed information as to the location of all buildings, thea ters, libraries and public buildings. ine tirst directory will be erected on a pole at the southeast corner of Fifth and Washington streets. The sign will be 18 by 4 Inches in size and will be mounted in a metal frame covered with glass. It will be placed parallel with Fifth street and correct with the com pass, so the caption as to the direction on the card can be readily understood. Portland will be the. first citv to aaopt a directory plan on such a com prehensive scale. Los Angeles has a system of street directories, but no at tempt Is made to give more than the street locations of points of interest and buildings. RIVER RESCUE IS IN DRILL Inspection of Militia on Boston to Be Held This Afternoon. Rescue of a sailor from the Willam ette River will be one of the features of the annual Federal inspection of the Oregon Naval Militia to be held en board the cruiser Boston in the lower harbor at 2 o'clock today by Inspector- Instructor R. R. Smith of the United States Navy. A Franklin life buoy that lights when It strikes . the water will be thrown overboard, lifeboats will be lowered and a crew will rush to the rescue of the man in the water. The lighted life buoy Is used for night work, being intended to lisrht up the surroundings so that a man ln the water can be seen or can swim to the buoy. During the inspection there will be fire drills, "abandon ship" drills, exhibitions of manual of arms und gun drills. Arrangements bavo been made for motion pictures of the affair. Two Engines Are Cast. The first two engines were cast Fri day at new factory .of the Beaver State Automobile Factory at Gresham, this week Wednesday they being the first actual start on construction of automo biles at this factory. Six men are em ployed and this force will be increased as work progresses. Not all the mate rial for the automobiles has arrived, but it is expected soon, when the as sembling of the Biachines will be start ed. Painters and unholsterers and machinists will be needed. It has been two years since this enterprise was projected. It Is estimated that the Government's Grand Canyon frame refuge, ln Arizona, con tains about 10,000 deer.

FINANCE IS CHIEF PROBLEM Depression of Past Year Shown to Have Increased Demands Both. Physically and Profession ally Calls Number 9310. The reports of the Visiting Nurse Association for the fiscal year ending April, 1915. were completed recently by Mrs. Caroline A. Dieck, president of the association. She also makes some speculations as to the future welfare of the organization. She said: "In looking forward to the year 1914 we had hoped to raise enough money to enable us to enlarge our force of nurses as the growing needs of the city required. There is no limit to the expansion of this work except the financial one.' The abnormal year of 1914, however, prevented our realizing our plan of making a large sum of money, and the board found it neces sary to reduce the force in order to conserve the funds throughout the year. This was particularly hard, in view of the fact that the demands upon the association were increasingly great, and the Winter an exceptionally hard one for the needy sick, whom we are or ganized to serve. There are 700 persons who pay yearly dues as members of the Visiting Nurse Association. They support the work. I wish to assure these members that we have endeavored to administer the affairs of the association in a wise and business-like manner, bo that there should be the greatest good to the greatest number. Particular attention is invited to the clear reports of the treasurer, which show the operations of the association. We t-hall be glad when the movement tending toward state or civic supervision of charities material izes, and will welcome any activity di rected toward making relief a matter of puollc justice rather than private charity. Nsnri' Value Appreciated. "In reviewing the seven years' work of the committee on tuberculosis ln New York State, Homer Folks, secre tary of the State Charities Aid Associa tion, says: 'Trained visiting nurses have proved to be almost more valuable than any other factor in discovering cases of tuberculosis, and bringing the resources of the community to bear upon them. Starting with two nurses in 1907, the state now has 66 devoted to this work alone.' Mr. Folks believes that, next to the provision of hospitals. this is the most Important result gained. Most of the nurses are employed by municipalities or counties. "This is evidence of the trend of thought in the older communities, and a recognition of the service of the vis iting nurse. The only organized work against tuberculosis in Portland is done by the Visiting Nurse Association. We employ two nurses, the salary of one being furnished by the City of Port land. We confidently expect that the city, as a health measure, will ulti mately support the entire movement againts tuberculosis, which is a menace to the whole community. Work Shows Gnwlh, "We have on record for 1914. 9310 visits and 1S17 patients, as against 9052 visits and 13t6 patients for 1913. show ing an increase of work in 1914 with a smaller nursing force. This has been made possible by thoughtful and care ful management. We have been com pelled to keep strictly to our own work of nursing sick. One of the nurses con flded to me that the hardest thing had been not to be able to help in incidental ways when material help was so plainly needed. There has been so much un employment that persons have appealed for assistance who have never be obliged to do so before. However, ef- PEDESTRIANS IN PORTLAND.

"A peculiar problem in aystematlzlnte the work in Portland comes from the fact that the city is fpread ovr such a large area, and that therefore a large part of the nurses' time is neces sarily pent in setting from place to place. The good accompllffhed cannot be measured, however, by totals of v I is It a made or patients treated. pend a morn in ty with one of the nurses on her rounds, and you will recognize that a visiting nurse must not only possess skill in her profession, but she must bo sympathetic, patient and tactful, for It comes to her to be not only adviser In regard to material problems, but confe-Msor as to moral ones. Ofttin.es she n a family's only fttay, and upon her shoulders rests the full responsi bility of their guidance to some hap pier condition. Financial Problem Viewed. "The difficulty of financing- the or ganization must be apparent to every one. Except through the medium of benefits, or public solicitation, no large fund has been secured. Kxperlence In Uhe laet membership campaign demon strates that large addition to the mem bership list may not be expected in the near future, and the continuation of the work should be largely Inde pendent of "varying income. in East ern cities there has been a happy so lution of the difficulty through me morial and endowed n urfc.es. A memorial of continuing useful ness Is a beautiful monument to a life that is ended. An endowment fund would remove the danger at any time of having to restrict the work. It should be the duty of the board to aim toward such a fund. 'We have co-operated in a friendly manner with all other relief agencies, and take this occasion of expressing our thanks to all those who have given us their help. "1 wish to express to the board my appreciation of their conscientious co operation, and again to pay my tribute to the efficient and faithful care of nurse whose services and loyal devo tion can by no means be measured In terms of money." Another report of note was that of Mrs. Kate H. Mather, chairman of the supply committee. The Teport follows: Th pup ply committee hum to report that during the. year 191 4-15 797 new artlrle of clothing; have brn given out to patients under rare of the aurmciatfon.
