PAYING' PLAN EXTOLLED
GEORGE W. RIDDLE, WINNER OF
COJTTEST, OX AUTO TOUR. '
Assertion Made That Grangers of Doug
las Count j- Are Largely in
, Favor of Road Bonds.
ROSEBURQ. Or., June 2. (Special.)
Enthusiastic over the paved roads on
which he traveled from Medford to
the California line. George W. Riddle,
pioneer resident of Riddle and winner
of the good roads essay contest con
ducted here recently by Representative
Brand, of Garden Valley, returned to
day with the declaration that he would
support any measure which had for its
purpose the improvement- of the high
ways of this state.
I have traveled over the road from
Medford to the California line many
times during the past 65 years," said
Mr. Riddle, "and I want to say that the
road improvement work done there dur
ing the past few years is a revelation.
The road is hard surfaced and is
adapted to all kinds of traffic during
all times of the year.
This roaa demonstrates beyond a
doubt .the difference between perma
nent and scientific road construction
and the patchwork which is so no
ticeable in many other sections of
the state."
It is predicted here that the grang
ers of Douglas County will vote heavily
in favor of the bonds.
GRAIN NEED IS HUGE
Allies and Neutrals Would Use
971,000,000 Bushels.

Hoover, In Estimating Minimum De
mands, Says Tbat Only 600,

WASHINGTON. June 2. The grain
requirements of the allies and the
European neutrals wers put at 971.

than the United States cart supply, la

day. Hating the minimum needs of each
nation for human consumption and for

"It will, of course, be Impossible,
said Mr. Hoover, "for North America to
furnish all of this quantity, although

West Makes Showing In Freight
Rate Hearing.
SALEM. Or., June 2. (Special.)
That the West will see freight In
creases less than the 15 per cent hori
zontal rise asked by the railroads now
being heard by the interstate Com
merce Commission, and that there will
be a suspension of the advances in
lumber and fruit rates, are hopes ex
pressed by Commissioner H. H. Corey,
of the Public Service Commission of
this state, who is in Washington at
tending the hearings. He so tele
graphed the Oregon Commission today.
"I believe the good showing made
will be reflected in a decision to the
benefit of the West in lesser Increases
than other sections," he telegraphed.
GOVERNOR WITHYCOYM.BE
SAYSi
"The road bond bill Is tha
greatest measure ever contem
plated by the state of Oregon. It
means more to this state than
any measure in its history, not
barring the constitution, because
the one thing we need is high
ways in Oregon. It is time for
us to get out of the mud. There
should be no sectional interest.
We need and must have good
roads. They add to the wealth,
thrift and happiness of our peo
ple and our state. This measure
does not add one farthing to our.
taxes. It simply capitalizes 1
waste. It is a most splendid
measure. No sane man or woman
should ' offer a single word of
opposition to this movement."
will be established as soon as the
food bills and the export limitations
act become laws. At present the allies
and neutral countries are purchasing
in large quantities for future delivery.
There is no guarantee that all these
deliveries will be made, as this Gov
ernment may hold up contracts to as
sure an adequate food supply at home.
Mr. Hoover denied a report today
that the food administration will buy
the country s grain crop for dlatrlbu
tlon. There Is no Intention, he said.
of going into the grain business.
More than a dozen women home
economic experts called on Mr. Hoover
today to learn how they might assist
In the food conservation. Most of
them are teachers of home economics
in women's colleges.

"Jacksonville la ! Palmy Days, With
Bin and Card Tables," to
Be Reproduced.
By, with and through tha knowledge
consent and connivance of the managers
of the Rose Festival, the Portland Press
Club has been recognized aa the place
to stage the "bright night spot" of the
big patriotic celebration, June 13, 14
and 15.
z And the "copy chasers" of the news
paper fraternity are going to meet the
emergency by staging one of the
biggest high Jinks the club has ever
undertaken.
"Jacksonville l.- Its Palmy days" will
ba reproduced in the spacious quarters
of the club.
It is especially hoped that the wives
of active and associate members will
prod the remembrance rib of hubby and
remind him that from 8 to 12 each night
the merry dance will be on, the little
balls will be spinning and the croupiers
will be paying out thousands of phony
dollars to the winners. Attractive prizes
will be awarded to those players who
are able to accumulate the largest bales
of the paper money.
Out-of-town visitors to the Rose Fes
tival will be made special guests of the
club, the only qualification required be
ing the evidence of the presence of some
of the wealth that the wheat and cattle
growers of the state have been accu
mulating for the past year or two.

for Injury or death, the Government
cannot subject a man to more risk
than he encounters in his usual oc
cupation and not make compensation
if he is wounded or killed.
War Rtslc Bureau Is ' Success.
The success of the Government War
Risk Bureau, which has paid out large
sams for ship losses, is pointed to as
an argument that the Government it
self can bear the risk. The Govern
ment, free of overhead charges, can
carry extra insurance on soldiers and
sailors at a much smaller cost than can
corporations. Of course, the $4000 in
surance given free would be a direct
loss, but pensions, it is argued, would
be much more costly In the long run.
' Mr. Sweet will see heads of Insur
ance companies in New York within
the next few days to discuss the plans.
Alaska Gets Military Instructor.
OREGONI AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. June 2. Major Peter W. DavlT
son, paymaster of the Alaska Road
Commission, has been selected by the
War Department to be Adjutant-Gen
eral and instructor of the Alaska Na
tional Guard, which is to. be organized
under a recent act of . the Territorial
Legislature. 'Alaska now has no Na
tional Guard.
the major load must fall on us. In
any event It emphasizes the necessity
for control of exports In order to con
trol prices and protect our supply and
the necessity for conservation and
elimination of waste in order to in
crease the volume of our exports."
Mr. Hoover believes the United
States and Canada can 'export this
year at least 600,000,000 bushels of
grain. If the Winter wheat crop Im
proves and the Spring crop is larger
than normal, he believes this may be
Increased to 800,000,000. Shipment of
that much grain, much of it wheat,
however, will force American . con
sumers to eat less wheat than usual
and eat more of other cereals.
