General John Dougall and his forces worked diligently all day yesterday in ihe effort to swell the fund to the high est possible percentage of the Portland allotment, as the drive is scheduled to close Monday night. "We would have had our quota raised by this time," said Mr. Dougall last night, "had a sufficient number of workers responded. We have been com pelled to leave many districts, includ ing Council Crest and the close-in sec tion south of Jefferson, practically un canvassed. Our canvassers have worked hard since last Monday, and they have been compelled to return several times to solicit those who were not at home. More Workers Are Needed. "We need more workers in all parts of the city, and anyone who is willing to help uphold Portland's fine record in all previous patriotic and philan thropical drives will be welcomed at headquarters Monday morning." At 6 o'clock last night the returns from yesterday's tag sale amounted to about $1500. and Mrs. Sadie Orr Dun bar, in charge of the sale, predicted that the returns would exceed $2000. A contribution from which the drive officals hope to net as much as $500 is a beautiful brooch set with diamonds and pearls, given by a Portland woman yesterday. The contributor has traveled through Syria and Armenia, and because of her sympathy for the sufferers there has been caring for two Armenian orphans whose parents were massacred. Roosters Swell Relief Fond. A pretty holly tree, the gift of T. A. Flint, of 675 Quimby street, was an other of yesterday's donations. It will be sold to the highest bidder at head quarters in the Unitarian church, Yarn ing and Broadway streets. The two pedigreed roosters donated by P. M. Dick of Oswego, on Friday, have already netted the fund $25 and are still in the custody of Mrs. A. R. lnnes, office superintendent, for sale to the highest bidder. Mrs. Innes started the bidding yesterday at $5 and Frank Creasy of the Kiwanis club fly ing squadron raised the bid to $20. A few minutes later Frank C. Jackson, of Seattle, national field organizer for the Armenian-Syrian relief committee, ame in and bought the birds for $25, returning them to Mrs. Innes for re sale. Again Mrs. Innes started the bidding fit $5 and late yesterday afternoon Frank Creasy came in and repeated his former bid for $20, at which figure the bidding now rests.

A pleasing incident, following a series of discouraging experiences, was reported by two workers on Captain H. O. Cartozian's team yesterday morning. When these canvassers, depressed by the lack of interest and small contribu tions secured in the two hours pre vious, entered the Pacific Coast Cone company's factory on East Eighth they were given a cordial welcome and found that every one of the 20 em ployes had contributions ready.

RAILWAY TRAFFIC DECLINES ELECTRIC OPERATION INCOME LESS IN PAST FIVE YEARS. Expenses and Overhead Charge Show Increase Since 1912; Statis tics Are Prepared. Tlfrrna bp a in t r-n f fin a net innnmA frwr five years ended with 1917, with marked increases in operating ex- pe rises and overhead charges, in con rast with large gains for the pre ceding semi-decade from 1907 to 1912, are shown in preliminary figures of the forthcoming quinquennial report of the electric railways of the state of Oregon, given out by Director Sam L. Rogers of the bureau of census department of commerce. The statistics relate to the years ending December 31, 1917, 1912 and 1907. The totals include electric light plants operated in connection with electric railways and not separable therefrom, but do not include mixed steam and electric railroads nor rail ways under construction. The number of operating companies was eight in 1917, six in 1912 and eight in 1907, the figures show. The com panies operated 59C.23 males of single track in 1917, as compared with 544.64 miles in 1912 and 253.41 miles in 1907, n increase of 9.5 per cent for the period of 1912-1917 and of 135.3 per cent for the decade. Persons employed numbered 3057 in 1917, as compared with 3041 in 1912 or an increase of but one-half of 1 per cent, but salaries and wages in 1917 aggregated $2,976,798 as compared with $2,641,897 in 1912, an increase of 17.1 per cent. The power consumption was 233,152. 742 kilowatt hours in 1917, of which 218,086,315 was generated and 15,066. 427 was purchased, as compared with 182,546,743 kilowatt hours in 1912, of which 169,609,004 was generated and 12.937,739 was purchased. - The revenue passengers carried num bered 67.222.935 in 1917, as compared with 75.842,324 Ui 1912, a decrease of 11.4 per cent, though the 1917 figure exceeded that for 1907 by 36.7 per cent. The income from all sources aggre gated $7,287,144 in 1917, as compared with $7,856,471 in 1912, a decrease of 7.2 per cent.

Person Under 2 0 Years Required to Render Return if Income for 1918 Exceeds $1000. Bad debts cannot be deducted from the income tax statement if the bad debt was recognized as such prior to'urer. the taxable vear 1918. according to the I internal revenue oifice. Only sucn debts as have been charged off as worthless within the year may be claimed. Bankruptcy is not necessarily an indication of the worthlessness of a debt. The difference between the amount received by a creditor in distri bution of a decedent's estate and the amount of the creditor's claim may be considered a worthless debt. A "head of a family" is a person who actually supports in one household one or more persons closely connected with him by blood relationship, by marriage or by adoption. If the benefactor is absent temporarily, but a common home is maintained, the exemption of $2000 applies. If a husband continuously and voluntarily makes his home at one place and the wife at another, each must file an individual return of net income of $1000 or more. A person under 20 years is required to render a return if he had a net income for 1918 of $1000 or more, or a guardian may render the return for him. The earn ings of minor children dependent upon parent should be included in the parent's return of income. FREQUENT RAINS FORECAST Weather Bureau Predicts Tempera ture Below Normal During Week.

"It was indeed a privilege to have known Rollo as intimately as I did; and the few- members of the company left after six months of severe fighting unite in saying that they never knew a truer comrade or better soldier.

Church Kolei For free eonlra of other article of In the popular classification of rell plous bodies the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints If included at all Is generally given mention apart from churches and sectarian Institutions in general. The segrea-ation is eminently proper for this Church .is strictly unique. No well informed commentator, no capable critic In either friendly or hos tile mood, has classed "Mormonism" as the sectarian offspring of any mother church nor as any mere variation ot a preexisting body. No church on earth claims, acknowledges or adnfit. any community of origin with the common ly known but mis-called "Mormon" Church. Nor does the Church of Jesus Christ of l-atter-day Saints assert any such relationship with other bodies. At this point It Is well to consider the fact that toleration in religious belief and practise is a fundamental tenet of Mormonism." This is set forth in one of the formulated Articles of Faith: -W claim the privilege of norahlpins Almlarhtr od according to the dic tate of our own conscience and allow all men the same privilege let them worship bow where or what they may. We demand no prerogatives, ask.no privileges beyond what we readily ac cede to be the common rights of man kind. Our distinctive teachings and the claims of the Church as to its commis sion to preach the Oospel of Jesus Christ and administer tne saving orai- nances thereof must be Judged on their merits, and in the spirit of testimony. which we believe the honest-hearted Inquirer may gain for himself in the course of unbiased Investigation. The Church of Jesus Christ of Jatter- day Saints is unique in that It sol emnly affirms to the world that the new dispensation, foretold in prophecy as a characteristic of the last days precedent to the second advent of Christ, is established and that th,e Holy Priesthood, with all Its ancient uutnor ity and power, has been restored to earth. "Mormonism" affirms that such resto ration was a necessity, Inasmuch as mankind had fallen away from the Gospel of Christ during the dark ages of history, with the inevitable, conse quence that the Holy Priesthootl had been taken from the earth, and the au thority to administer the essential and saving ordinances of the Gospel had been lost. The condition of spiritual darkness was foretold by prophets who lived prior to the meridian of time, as also by Jesus Christ while in the flesh, and by His Apostles, who were left to continue the ministry after the Lord's departure. Furthermore, the fact of the great falling away or general apostasy Is admitted, and indeed affirmed, by high ecclesiastical authority.

Prophets of olden times were permit ted to look beyond the black night of apostasy and to behold the glorious dawn of the restoration. John, the Apostle and Kevelator. having seen the events in vision wrote of the realization as then already attained: "Aid I saw another angel fly In the mldat off heaven, havins: the everlaatlng iconpel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, nnd kindred, and tongue, nnd people, lay ing with a loud voice. Fear t,od, and give glory to him; for the hour of hla judsrment la comet and worahlp him that made heaven and earth nnd the Hen. and the fountaina of watera.' (Rev. 14:6-71. We affirm the literal fulfillment of this gladsome promise through the ministration of angels in these latter days, by which the Holy I'riesthood has been renewed to man. Thus, in 18-3. an angelic personace ministered to Joseph Smith, and delivered to the mortal prophet the ancient record from which the Hook of Mormon has been translated. This record contains "the fullness of the everlasting Gospel" as delivered by the Savior to the ancient inhabitants of the Western Continent. Then, on May 15, 1829. John the Jtap tist. who held the keys of the Lesser or Aaronic I'riesthood in the earlier dispensation, appeared in his resurrect ed state and ordained Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery to that order of Priest hood, comprising "the keys of the min istering angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immer sion for the remissitjii of sins."
