"But yrlll It help to pile up freight on docks xwhere no ships come?" they ask. h The control of Transpacific shipping does not rest with the United States Shipping board,' the director general of railroads, or the president.

It la on thla HrJe that efforts are now (directed. It Is simple enough on paper, but not so easy to put Into effect. The tsuggestlon may or may not be well $ received. , It is recalled that not long ;ago Japan broke off discussion over the supply of steel from this country 7 for her shipbuilding, not being willing to pay the price which this country had fixed for Itself. i It may be said on good authority' that Director General of Railroads Mc Adoo will do his part to secure use of Columbia river porta Just aa soon aa he can see that action on his part will be affective. He is anxious to cut out circuitous routings of freight, and to, cut down, congestion at terminals. He Is doing that wherever he can. I Bat Columbia Proper Coaling Facilities The same spirit is round with Chair man Hurley of the shipping board, who perceives the advantage of using addi tional terminals. If he were not pressed to supply every ship that he can for j Less Food Is Eaten When Tobacco Used Washington, D. C, Feb. 21. Tha use of tobacco by our troops in the trenches plays no small part in the conservation of food, say marine corps officials here, who estimate that from 25 to 30 per cent of food is saved daily in this manner. While authorities admit the detrimen tal Influence of narcotics, they assert that tobacco relieves the nervous ten sion of soldiers who are under continual Shell fire. "Early in the war, declared a ma rine off ioer, "the French discovered that men who smoke eat considerably leas food, and only recently the British food controller issued the statement: The British troops In the trenches must have tobacco or much more food.'

Simpson of Coos county has entered the lists as a candidate for tha Republican nomination for governor at the primary election of May 17, having made formal announcement of his in tention .Wednesday afternoon. The principles upon which Mr. Simp son will go before the voters for nomi nation, and those things to which ha pledges himself if nominated and elected, are aet out in the following statement and platform issued by him: "In announcing myself as a candidate for nomination for governor on the Re publican ticket at the primary election to be held on May 17, 1918, I desire to appeal to the voters of Oregon as in dividuals, who. aa such, are well quali fied to Judge the Issues of the day and who can and will vote aa their Judgment shall direct. Wni Make 2To Fledges "I am a Republican and believe in the principles of the Republican party, and above everything I am an American and believe in the principles of my country. I am not a member of, nor affiliated with, any particular faction or part of the Republican party ; nor am I pledged to support any of the candidates for office at the coming primary election. "I pledge the people of Oregon, that. in conducting my campaign I will not support any particular candidate for office in preference to the other candi date for the same office; that I will not promise appointment to office or poll' tical patronage to anyone; that If nom inated and elected I shall enter office with neither promise nor pledge to re deem, except those which I glvo to the people themselves ; reserving the right to make such appointments and to con duct the office with whatever unpre judiced independence the best interests of the people of Oregon and the devel opment, peace and welfare of the state shall demand. Will Make Personal Camnalen "If The voters decide that they do not desire that I be their candidate I will give my undivided support to the Re publican candidate of their choice. 1 snail, aa zar as possible, make a neraona.1 cammln. with the ohl.-rr of meeting aa many individuals as time win permit, ana snail enaeavor to estab lish and maintain a close personal rela tionship with the people of the state, so that I may the better know and understand their needs and require ments. "In tha present struggle for world peace, democracy and the very exist ence of the nation itself, the first obli gation of every man, women and child is to the land of their birth or adop tion. Faithful to that obligation. Oregon is proud of its contribution in men, money, food, lumber and ships. Would Enforce Laws "The entire wealth and all of tha resources of the state have been placed at the disposal of tha government, and If nominated and elected, I shall accord the nation and the administration that full and complete measure of support and assistance with Its patriotic citi zenship has already enacted. "The people of Oregon have placed upon tha - state , books certain ' law which, if nominated and elected. X shall, with all tha power and authority of tha office of governor, rigidly and un oompromlaingly enforce. Tha spirit of tha times and the vital Importance of state-wide prosecution of tha govern ment's war activities require that law and order shall prevail. I shall con sider it my sacred duty to preserve such a condition. Favors Eight Hoar Iaw "I favor tha establishment of a na tional, universal eight hour day for all classes of labor except for agriculture, the very nature of which, makes it Im possible to restrict the working hours to any set number. "I am firmly convinced that the prog ress, prosperity and development of Ore gon demands that all lines of business. with due consideration for the absolute necessity of practicing most rigid econ omy, be maintained as nearly normal aa war conditions will permit; and that public expenditures sijould be limited to actual necessities, under no circum stances permitting private or public im provement to interfere with the success ful prosecution or tna war. "I favor the comprehensive' improve ment and construction of roads, partic ularly the main or trunk highways. which are of themselves military neces sities, and I believe that during the war this work should be prosecuted only with the consent and approval of the na tional government. "I favor the construction of an ade quate system of military highways for tha defense of tha Pacif lo coast and be lieve that tha national v government should undertake such construction Im mediately anon the termination of the war. so that those resources, upon which tha nation Is so largely depending in prosecuting tha war. will be properly conserved and protected and further as a means of affording employment zor the hundreds of thousands of soldiers during the period of readjustment or until such time aa tha productive activ ities of peace will require their em Premises Good Administration "If nominated and elected: T ah ail encourage and support such legislation as may be necessary for the establishment of nation-wide prohibition and tha permanent adoption of equal suffrage in tha state and nation. I shall endeavor at au times to create and stimulate that patriotic cooperation1 between employer and employe rendered so necessary by tha strenuous conditions of war and so essential to the progress and advancement of the state. "I shall aid and assist In every way, commensurate with due and proper econ omy, the educational system and Insti tutions of the state and In every pos sible manner increase their efficiency. "With a knowledge and appreciation of tha enormous natural resources of Oregon I shall endeavor to promote de velopment of those resources through establishment of new Industries and by enoouraglng settlers and . urging; such leg islation as will tend to make living con ditions better for them and for tha thou sands of workers and laborers through out tha state. "In administering the office of 'tha state's highest executive I shall consist ently endeavor to give to Oregon an Im partial, clean, economical and business like administration, an administration. which will have as Its Ideal, the greatest possible advancement of the- moral, so cial and economic prosperity oWne peo ple or ine state, and through an aver in creasing development of its tremendous resources keep Oregon at the top in the vast fabric of. our national life."
