Speculators Said to Be Engaged In
Discounting Liberty Bonds In
Connection With Real Estate
and Other Transactions.
Members of a special commutes of
liberty loan workers ars considering" a
plan for combatting the actlrltles of
unscrupulous speculators and pro-Hun
Influences In what appears to be a Ni-tlon-wlde
attempt to depreciate the dif
ferent Issues of liberty bonds. No re
ports of outright swindle have been
reported In this city where those profi
teering In these Investment securities
thus far have confined their efforts to
discounting extensively these bonds In
connection with real estate and other
transactions.
Ths effect of these activities has
been to depress the market value of
these securities and has resulted In
more or less uneasiness among many
of the email Investors in these securi
ties. Not a day passes that several
owners of liberty bonds In denomina
tions and amounts ranging from $50 to
to 1300 do not call at the liberty loan
headquarters for Information as to the
aecurtty of fhelr Investments.
"Most of these people, said D. c
Freeman, of the liberty loan commit
tee yesterday, "are Inexperienced In the
ownership of bonds as a continuing in
vestment. But we have no trouble In
allaying their fears when the nature of
the Investment and Its positive security
has been explained. There la no occa
sion for any bolder of liberty bonds to
part with these securities at any great
discount. In view of the fact that
reputable bond dealers report that the
bond market for these securities today
Indicates a healthy upward tendency."
In Its Investigation the special com
mittee Is suspicious that prorGerman
Influences are largely responsible for
the attempts being made to depreciate
the negotiable value of liberty bonds.
The committee Is conducting a thor
ough inquiry and within a few days
will issue a statement for the Informa
tion and assurance of all bondholders.
The final Installment on liberty bonds
of the third Issue, purchased through
the banks, becomes due and payable
next Thursday. August IB. One month
later. September 16. will be the first
Interest-paying period on the third Is
sue of liberty bonds. Owners of these
securities will then be able to detach
the first coupon and collect at any bank
interest for the first six months. The
disbursement of this Interest money
among the holders of liberty bonds. It
Is believed, will have a tendency to re
assure the owners of these securities
and dispel to a large extent any un
easiness now existing.

The fun and frolic of the story center
around a master of legerdemain who Is
due to reach America from Poppyland.
When he does not arrive on schedule,
his friends find it necessary to have
him Impersonated. Here's where the
fun begins to continue one solid hour.
The magician's proxy and his assist

chop euey amid great bursts of melody
and dancing from the chorus, which,
of course, is garbed as only Chinese
girls can garb themselves. Two weeks'
rehearsal and two weeks' arranging of
costumes have been necessary in the
staging of the comedy, according to
Manager Armstrong.

When Mayor Baker and members of
the City Council first concluded to treat
all women afflicted with social diseases
the Kelly Butte institution was se

Portland officials, and later Federal
officials recognized the work and or

Between 40 and 60 women have been
treated at the old home, under the dl

Guy W. Hanna'a Intense desire to en
list In the aviation branch of his coun
try's service led to his undoing, accord
ing to disclosures made yesterday by
Deputy District Attorney Dempsey, who
has written to Army officials at San
Antonio, Tex., to keep Hanna under sur
veillance pending a further Investiga
tion of charges by his pretty wife of
three years.
Fearful that he would not be accept
ed In the Aviation Corps if the Army
offloials knew he was married. Hanna
went to a Middle Western state, where
he enlisted as a single man. It was not
until after he had passed all the neoes
sary examinations to qualify as an
Army aviator that he communicated
with his wife to let her know that he
had enlisted.
Don t you let anyone know I am
married or I will get a few years in
the Federal prison at Leavenworth," he
is said to have written to her. "If you
will keep quiet I will send you more
money than you would get through a
regular allotment."
The wife, Mrs. Florence Hanna, at
first determined to keep her husband's
secret in order that he might serve his
country. She now says, however, that
he failed to send her any money, and
It was only after she had exhausted
every other recourse, she says, that she
finally decided to go to the District At
torney's office for help.
Some time ago Deputy District At
torney Dempsey wrote to the Army of
ficials ooncernlng Hanna's alleged de
ception. They replied that the young
aviator still insisted that he was never
married and did not know the woman
who said she was his wife. They sug
gested that further proof of the mar
riage be forwarded to them.
Yesterday Mr. Dempsey mailed a cer
tified copy of the young soldier's mar
riage certificate, showing that he was
married to Miss Florence E. White at
Sioux Falls, & D., on July 12, 1915.
This certificate is expected to win for
the young wife the allotment money
which she demands.
Mrs. Hanna has been compelled to
work to support herself for some
months, and Is now a dancing Instruc- I

Millions of dollars are epent every year in dental offices without
adequate return. Perhaps forty cents on the dollar goes for ACTUAL
SERVICE RENDERED and sixty cents goes for imaginary REPUTA
TION AND STANDING of the dentist.
Conservation, like charity, should begin at home, and In the home.
This is the richest Nation in all the world, but we have not a dollar to
waste. Paying for SOMETHING YOU DON'T GET Is willful waste a

are a part.
I have demonstrated for the past 14 years, and proved to thousands
of people, that honest, conscientious dependable, durable dentistry is
possible at HALF THE PRICES CHARGED BY THE HIGH-PRICED
PRIVATE DENTISTS, and have also proved that In THIS OFFICE the
best materials CAN be used and the work performed by skilled, graduate,
registered dentists at these prices.
Do not get the Impression for one moment that I am advooatlng
"cheap" or "shoddy" dentistry, for that would be even greater extrava
