President's Address in Which
He Champions Russia
Wins High Praise.
APPROVAL SET ON WAR AIMS
I troops were mustered Into Federal serv
ice.
But Edwin "W. Caswell would not be
denied. His heart had been set on get
ting into this fight against the Hun,
and It hurt him, and badly, too, when
the doctor told him that he did not
meet with the physical requirements
because of his eyes.
But young: Caswell took counsel with
himself and hied himself off to a nearby
logging; camp. He wanted to get out in
the open, thinking perhaps the heavy
outdoor work would put him in the re
quired physical condition. In the mean
time his parent!. Mr. and Mrs. Edwin
Caswell. 791 Overton street, had gone
to California for the Winter, thinking
that their son would remain at the
logging camp.
On a morning last January his par
ents received this telegram from him:
m leavmir today for Victoria to
Join Canadian army."
-And today 20-year-old Edwin "Wilson
Arthur Henderson Pays nigh Trib
ute to Sloral Idealism Brought

Executive.
to
LONDON, May 2S -President Wil
son's speech In New Tork last Satur
day is welcomed warmly by Arthur
Henderson, leader of the Labor party
and former member of the War Cab
inet. . -
"I welcome the President' speech,'
said Mr. Henderson in an interview
with Reuter's Limited, mainly for two
reasons, because it reaffirms in ringing
words democracy s resolute refusal to
desert Russia in her hour of agony and
humiliation, and because it proclaims
the doctrine to which organized work
men themselves stand pledged that
peace when it comw-muflt conform to
the principles of international right
and essential justice.
Peace Issue Eelevated.
"President Wilson's greatest contri
bution to the effort of the free nations
in this world struggle is the moral
idealism he has brought to bear upon
the problem ox world peace.
"He has refused to treat the ques
tions of peace as a matter for political
bargaining between belligerents or as
a. question of territorial compromises
and concessions by one side or the
other.
"President Wilson rightly regards the
whole situation in the east as a test
of Germany's sincerity in talking peace.
If there is any possibility that the
sillies might be persuaded to accept a
cynical peace based upon concessions to
Germany in the west at the price of
leaving Germany a free hand .in the
east; the President's firm repudiation
of any such bargain will, I hope,
finally dispose of it.
Workers Loolc to President
"We of the working class movement
in allied countries look to the President
of the United States to maintain this
high standard of statesmanship and to
bring our governments to see the issues
of this struggle with his clear vision
and to defend the cause of international
freedom .with the same exalted en
thusiasm and in the same distinterested
spirit."

Adoption of a resolution urging the I During the past week two well
CHICAGO, May 25. relaxations in
favor of the German Kaiser as a ruler
in America as compared with the pres
ent administration were made at the
meeting place of the Industrial Work
ers of the World at Milwaukee, Wis.,

according to testimony today at the
trial for seditious conspiracy to 112 L

Joseph Burdall, who said he was
forced to Join the I. W. W. to safe
guard his life, testified as a Govern
ment witness that G. J. Bourg, a de
fendant, and other Germans who gath
ered at the Milwaukee hall, declared
I. W. W.'s "knew their signs" that if
they were drafted Into the Army they
would shoot, but they would choose
their marks carefully.
'Our bullets will nont strike down
the Germans, but will pierce the necks
of the American officers," Burdall
testified Bourg shouted In an impas
sioned anti-war speech in which he
urged overthrow of the American gov
ernment. ' . ' '
Sabotage Campaign Favored.
"We can put the American Army on
the bum as quickly and effectively as
we can wreck a construction company
plant," said Bourg, adding that the
members of the organization should
begin by "burning grain fields, de
stroying food production plants and
wrecking munitions factories."
"If tfie Germans strike at the East,
we should be ready to strike in the
West" and bring about overthrow of
the Government, Bourg was quoted as
saying.
Burdall testified that Bourg, whose
exploits as an organizer in the harvest
fields last year resulted In his being
branded with the letters "I. W. W." cm
his body by a mob, was the most ar
dent of the Milwaukee speakers in his
revolutionary pronouncements.
"We will be doing a good thing for
civilization if we follow out the policy
of fighting the masters who are call
ing our men to arms, Bourg was
quoted as saying.
Hi-Jack Tactics Exposed.
Under questioning by Frank K-
Nebeker, chief prosecutor, Burdall ex-
plained the Hi-Jack, or strong-arm
tactics, of the organization; told how
farm machinery was wrecked faster
than landowners could 'make repairs,
and at times when loss of a day meant
a big financial loss, and .related spe
cific Instances of property destruction.
The witness told of being thrown
from a rapidly moving train by an L
W. W. brakeman because he carried an
American Federation of Labor card in
stead of an I. W. W. card. Sabotage
was practiced in the Montana and
Washington farming districts to the
extent of pushing horses In -wells and
grinding the teeth from threshing ma
chines.

New Method Announced by Chicago
Corporation, Which Will Soon
Be Operating.
CHICAGO, I1L. May 15. (Special.)
Chicago is to have a new shipyard,
where a novel method of constructing
steamers and barges of concrete is to
be- put into practice. The first task
will be to build a fleet of 94 barges,
which will bring coal to Chicago from
Central and Southern Illinois through
the inland waterways system.
It is expected that work on -the yards
will be started within a week. The
project Is backed by International Con
structors, a recently formed organiza
tion.
Paul Gerhardt, former County Archi
tect, and .Theodore Ahlborn. will be
the naval architects of the corporation,
which is backed by a number of well
known Cblcasoans. The processes
which are to be .used have been pat
ented. "Our new shipyard will be construct
ed so that the concrete work -can go
on Winter and Summer," said Mr. Ahl
born today. "There will be three ways
upon which ships will be launched side
ways. The company has 1500,000 cap
ital. "The chief novelty in constructing Is
that there will be a series-of hollow
spaces of buoyancy chambers In the
shell of the ship. It is a celluar method
of construction and there will be no

If you want to keep your hair In
good condition, be careful what you
wash It with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
la very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en
tlrely greaseless) is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampoing, as
this can t possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair' with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, r.cd cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle oi dus. dirt, dandruff and ex
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves it tine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It is very
eheap. and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family
