Washington. Workers Expect Each
Family to Buy $12 0 Worth of
Stamps Deschutes Asks
Increase In Quota.
Each family in Washington County is
expected to buy $120 worth ot war
saving stamps. This is the decision
reached by the committee at its meet
Ins held in Hillsboro. In addition to
the family per capita the committee ex
pects to have pledged 3 per cent of
the assessed valuation of the county.
Washington's quota in the war savings
tamp drive is $533,440. Where there
are non-resident taxpayers a special
committee will take the matter up to
see that these persons contribute their
hare of Washington County's quota on
the ZVi per cent basis.
How to work out the basic unit to
raise the quota is a problem which
county committees all over the state
are struggling with. It is a simple
matter to work out the quota on the
per capita plan, but as there are many
people who cannot pledge themselves
to purchase this amount of stamps,
others must buy more. It is this point
which Is causing some hard figuring.
Each school district will have its quota
compiled by the county committee.
Hood River Is Active.
In every county there will be a spe
cial list of taxpayers, men and women
of influence, who will be solicited to
pledge themselves a certain amount
the limit whenever possible.
In Hood River County an active ad
vertising campaign has been started.
A number of business concerns and
banks have agreed to pay for special
display advertising to bring the sub
ject of war savings stamps home to the
people.
Chairman Vaughan, of the Hood
Xtiver committee, announces that that
county has never failed to over
subscribe its allotment of liberty loans
or other war activities and that it will
not fail to make a similar showing
with the stamps.
When the Marlon County commit
tee met 110 people were present to hear
the instructions given by Assistant
State Director C. N. Wonacot. Prac
tically every school district in Marion
County was represented.
Deschutes Asks Increase
To give the final touchss to. the or
ganization in Deschutes County, Otto
Hartwig left last night for Bend. This
is the county which considered its
quota too small and voluntarily in
creased its allotment by $55,000.
Under the direction of the speakers'
bureau there will be a meeting of the
Federal Service War Savings Club of
Oregon at the Central Library Monday
night at 8 o'clock. George W. Cald
well, chairman, has assigned George
Arthur Brown as the principal speaker
to outline the need of pledging to buy
the stamps. Dr. J. D. Plamandon, of
the La Grande hospital unit, which
went to France with the Rainbow Di
vision, will recount his personal ex
periences in the war zone. Dr. Plaman
don has been Invalided home. The gen
eral public is invited to attend this
meeting.

FRIEND IS MOURNED
Dr. Stansfield Pays Tribute to
Late C. W. Fairbanks.
TWO ONCE CLOSE FRIENDS
Portland Churchman, for Many
Years Late Vice-President's Pas
tor, Knew Him as Clean,
Straight, Honored Christian.
Among Portland people who are
grieved at the passing of ex-Vlce-President
Charles W, Fairbanks is Dr.
Joshua Stansfield, pastor of the First
Methodist Church, who was formerly
Mr. Fairbanks' pastor in Indianapolis.
Rev. Mr. Stansfield recalled many in
teresting incidents of his association
with the late Vice-President yesterday
and said, among other things:
"Tea, I was Mr. Fairbanks' pastor
for 15 years and of course knew him
and his family welL A man of strict
est probity and exemplary character
both in his home at Indianapolis and
in Washington I knew him In both.
I remember a Sunday night in his horns
at Washington while he was Vice-Pres-dent.
With a number of members ot
official Washington I had dinner at his
home and after dinner it being Sun
day night we gathered around the
piano and for an hour or more old and
familiar hymns were called for and
sung.
"Among these were 'Rock of Ages,'
'Jesus, Lover of My Soul,' 'Abide With
Me and 'Guide Me, O. Thou Great Je
hovah.' Speaker Cannon, I remember,
said to me: 'Doctor, I am not noted for
my piety, but there is nothing that so
stirs me as these old hymns, and I
said: 'Well. Mr. Speaker. "The book
says that God hath set eternity in their
hearts and these old hymns find it
there in the depths of the souL'
"Mr. Fairbanks was a man of judi
cial and fine mind and of remarkable
executive ability. His library was one
of the finest private libraries I have
ever known. Always dignified and al
ways stately and as straight in char
acter as he was in physical form, he
was sometimes accounted as 'cold.' But.
to those who knew him he was genial,
cheery-hearted Fairbanks. For the last
six years of my work with him Mr.
Fairbanks was president of the Meth
odlset Hospital at Indianapolis, while
I was secretary. It was a hospital of
more than a half million of property
and one of the best equipped in all the
Middle West. Under his presidency the
hospital had a phenomenal growth. In
this work In an executive way we came
to know him intimately and at his best,
as well as in his regular attendance
upon and support of the church.
"He was a devout worshiper and a
discriminating and helpful hearer of
the word.' He, with his good wife,
whom we burled about four years ago,
and both graduates of one of our
Methodist schools, we always regarded
