BATTLES MAY NOT BE SEEN
Work Among Big Timber Likely to
Be Just as Important as Mili
tary Operations in For
eign Countries.
B. T. Allen, forester of the Western
Forestry & -Conservation Association,
has evolved a scheme for mobilization
of woodsmen of America for war
service.
Foresters, rangers, patrolmen and the
like constitute a body of men with' pe
culiar qualifications for service along
special lines. It is to the country's in
terest that such qualifications be made
available in the most effective manner,
not dissipated and lost through random
and unsystematic enlistment In the
wron, arms of the military establish
ment. It is both the privilege and the
duty of everyone in position to do so to
help, if possible, in making an oppor
tunity for the very best utilization of
their training and experience, and to
cripple as little as possible the pro
ducers of the raw material for ships.
Woodsmen Well Fitted.
The nature of their work places the
majority of forest organization men
ahead of the ordinary civilian in abil
ity to care for themselves under ad
verse circumstances; to meet condi
tions with initiative; to handle men,
horses and supplies, and in other ways
to give a good account of themselves
under war conditions with the mini
mum of officering and care such as
must be given ordinary recruits. They
also know much of the organization
and discipline. In addition to these
fundamentals most of them have spe
cial competence, if not in the accepted
work of the soldier, in work no less
necessary in military operations, such
as mapping and reconnoissance, trail,
bridge and telephone building, signal
ing, scouting, packing, teaming, auto
driving, use of firearms, feeding and
transporting men, etc Many also have
military experience.
With an under-manned army, the sev
eral departments and details may eas
ily find difficulty in adjusting their re
cruiting systematically to the best ad
vantage. Men urgently needed by one
arm may flock to another less in need.
This should be avoided particularly in
the case of specially trained men such
as woodsmen and the like. Where in
one department of defense they might
be no more useful than the ordinary
city recruit, in another they might be
of high immediate value, perhaps" even
as officers In some cases.
Again it is conceivable that under
certain circumstances forest organiza
tion men can be most useful where they
are, not only in fire prevention, but In
guarding unugus, rail unu miegruiju
lines and the like, or perhaps for detail
or similar work elsewhere without en
rollment in any established military
arm.
Organization Is Important.
The Western Forestry and Conserva
tion Association feels that while not
being desirous either of crippling their
protective work or that of the pro
ducing industry or of bringing pressure
on their men, they should at least af
ford those who may wish to volunteer
a. means of doing so to best advantage.
They may also afford means of reach
ing other men who would be interested.
Come sort of forest unit will be organ
ized and made available to the War
Department in a systematic manner.
Managing heads of organizations are
advised to get in touch with their men
as early as possible to learn of those
who may be likely to enlist, and clas
sify these according to any special
qualifications they possess. Each or
ganization Bhould know in advance if
any of its men contemplate leaving. It
might result in any one of the follow
ing plans:.

ELECTION COST DOUBLES
OMISSION OF WORD "SPECIAL"
FROM ,UW IS EIPBXSIVE.
Citixens of Portland and Multnomah
County Face Added Tax Borden
of S10.00O to fSO.OOO. ,
Unless some means can be devised
to avert it, the election officials at the
city and state election June 4 will re
ceive double pay and the Joint election
will cost about $10,000 more than it
would ordinarily. Unless County Com
missloners and District Attorney Evans
can devise means of solving the prob
lem, it now looks as if officials will
Set double pay if they demand it
Omission of the word "special" from
the Joint election bill passed by the
last Legislature causes the trouble.
While the bill was aimed to cover all
elections, it fails to mention special
elections and therefore the June
election, being a special election so far
as the state is concerned, it is believed
the election officials will have to be
paid by both the city and the county.
even though they are the same in both
elections and the polling places are the
same.
Within the city are 344 precincts,
each with ten election officials, five
on the day board and five on the night
hoard, or. a total or 3440 officials in
all. Each receives $3 a day. Double
pay. therefore, would increase the cost
of the election to the citizens of Mult
nomah County more than $10,000, and
should the counting of ballots extend
beyond the night following the elec
lioj the cost would be increased by
as many thousand dollars more.

BIr. Evans Says nights of Adele
Ella, Victim of Unsuccessful As
sault, Get First Considera
tion in Recommendation.
With his face haggard and pal from
the mental strain which he has under
gone for many days. Edward J. Myrlck
yesterday stood with bowed head while
Circuit Judge Bingham imposed the
statutory sentence of from one to ten
years in the penitentiary for his crimi
nal attack on Adele Ella, his former
cashier, on the night of January 14
last. Myrlck was immediately paroled
to L. Leonard Krause, clerk in Depart j
ment No. 4 of the Circuit Court, with
instructions to report to him monthly.
Mr. Myrlck loses his citizenship, which
can be restored only by a pardon.
Thus closed the final chapter of an
unfortunate Incident in the lives of
these two young people. Myrlck imme
diately left the courtroom with his at
torneys. Miss Ella was not present
when sentence waa pronounced. Her
brother, J. H. Ella, of Hammond. Or.,
was in attendance, and it was stated
that the young woman would be taken
back to Hammond by her hrerner.
It was stated yesterday that Myrlck
not only paid Miss Ella $3200 by way
of reparation, but that he was also
compelled to pay her attorneys. J. H.
Mlddleton and Malcolm Clark, the sura
of $800 for a release from a $40,000
damage suit which they had prepared
to file In behalf of the young woman.
District Attorney Evans consented
that Myrlck should be paroled only
after a thorough investigation of the
affair showed that his attack upon the
young woman was not successful and
that she had suffered more from fright
than from any other cause. His consent
to this outcome of the case came at
the request of the girl and her family
and of other officials Interested in the
case.
"I think It Is due this young woman
to say that while there was a struggle
there for an hour or more, the young
woman's physical condition now Is due
solely to the effects of this struggle,"
said Mr. Evans.
"In view of his making a settlement
for her welfare I have felt that the
rights of her physical condition and
her Individual rights in this particular
case might be considered In preference
to the rights of the state and the
Dublio.
"This office has Deen loatn in any
kind of a criminal case to consider
money settlement. It Is a dangerous
practice, but this young woman has
been damaged and is entitled to re
dress, but in view of the fact that a
plea of guilty was entered to tne
charge In the indictment and of the
further tender of this money settle
ment, I recommended that Myrlck be
paroled."
