Djment in - Washington f Washington, D..C May-.21. Colin V. Dyment, formerly, on the staff of The Journal at Portland, Or., Is now acting as assistant to the director of the eon. whose friends were kind enough to donate $15,000 to help him out, according : to the expense account filed with the secretary of the United States senate. has failed to show how the money has been spent, except about $200) l-ald tor newspaper advertising through the so- called Stanfield senatorial league. . This organisation, of which. W. C. IC , lYultt signs himself secretary, reports ' receipts t the entire $13,000,. which ) came in $5000 chunks from J. N. Burgess . and W. Ia Thompson, banking asseei ' ates of Stanfield. and $5000 reported as contributed direct to Htanfleld by Miles Lee, but i by h!m turned over to the Stanfield league. s "i Ta reed Over $ to Leagae . Under the federal corrupt practices act: the senatorial candidate Is required to report ; expenses paid by himself or by other persons with his knowledge . and consent. The $5000 which Stanfield says be .received from Miles Lit of 'Baker as a direct contribution, was turned over by him to his league, and cf course Jy his knowledjo and consent, Ju he nas made no shoeing as io what was done with it, exce.ut that it wjnt to the league. . Tho senatorial candidate Is also al lowed numerous exnvfor. For exam ple,! money' spent for postage ami t jentfn In mailing out literature, his nec essary travel expense and such expense as a candidate rrv:st Incur in complying with state law,. su n us filing fees and space In the official pamphlet, need not be r sported. i Learns Overlooks Exception '' This exemption does not extend to a committee or to anyone but the candi date himself. The Stanfield league ap- t,rtirs to have overlooked this and to . nave assumed mat it naa tne same priv ileges as. the candidate. It has re ported no expenditures at all except for newspaper advertising. The cost of Its headquarters, its sal ary list, payments for workers and cir cularising, do not appear. These are ex . penses which the law of congress is in i tended to cover, so that congress and the public can know where campaign funds are spent, and what amounts go lor sucn purposes. i PruiU Uses Wrong Affidavit Fruitt, secretary of the Staofleld league, attached to his statement an affidavit whlclt Is Intended for use only ny i the candidate, thereby aivlna him : sell Immunity from reporting what may be assumed to be the heaviest part of the league s expense, In view of the vis ible output of the Stanfield campaign. Unless this is corrected by a later statement the public will be unable to slse up the proprieties of the case, and : the senate will be unable to judge whetherr the law has been complied with. The Stanfield expense account In Its detail becomes all the more interesting In this respect In contrast with the mod-, est expenditures of Senator McNary, who reported that he had received no contributions and expended only a little more than $600. national fuel administration. Mr, Dyment was granted leave of absence for war, work from the Univer sity of Washington, where he was at the head of the department of Jour nalism. He may remain Indefinitely with the fuel administration, or may join the Red Cross forces in France.

Garfield, federal fuel administrator, MRS. FALKNER. 103. DIES AT ALBANY One cf Oldest, Oregon Pioneer ' "'Women Lived on One Farm In Linn 67 Years. Albany. Or., May 21.

The J. J. Dunning company and the Portland Coffee company will not be given licenses until May 8, the effect being to suspend their coffee business until the date named. About 250 firms throughout the United States were sub jected to a similar penalty. and Mount Scerpenberg The French suddenly threw themselves on the Ger mans on a front of between two and three miles, and the result was never in doubt. British troops advanced their line on front of 600 yards between Aveluy Wood and Hebuterne, diminishing a sharp, dangerous salient and occupying four enemy posts. A hot counter attack was repulsed. The above" dispatch is the. first to mention American air forces as defin itely engaged In operations In Flanders. The American troops which recently took their place in the Britlch line' were officially reported as possessing their own aerial detachment. Simms' -dispatch may mean that these American troops whose exact location has so far been- withheld are in the vi cinity of Ypres.

Newspaper pub ' Ushers in numbers descended on Wash ington a few days ago following the ad . joumment of the publishers' association meeting In New York. Some came for a look around at thev capital, but most of them also came for a look-in at vari- ous departments on public matters. Consequently there have been num erous calls on the food and fuel admin istrators, the shipping board and the federal trade commission, the latter or ganisation being In touch with the news print situation. Second class postal rates ana tne construction placed on . capital Investment under the excess profits tax were likewise the subject of : consideration.

Requests had been made in be half of Josephine.

May 21. It is expected that the Rev. Frank James, a methodlst minister of Lebanon, Or and captain of the home guards' there. will be one of the first to be appointed in the list of additional chaplains of the army when the "chaplain bill" Is finally approved. The bill was once passed and vetoed bythe president because of his belief ysat the language would unintentionally exclude front service some of the chaplains now serving. Abyssinia, the original home of the coffee tree, still has Immense forests or it that have never been touched. By Frank Charlton International News 'Csbl Editor The magnificent success of the French in the Locre sector of the Flanders bat tlefront Is menacing the grip of the Germans on the all important Kemmel hMl, six miles southwest of Ypres. French troops gained highly Import ant ground In the- hill country over a front of 4000 yards, creeping nearer to the helgWt-ef Kemmel itself, which the Germans captured at such enormous cost of human life. To use the expression made famous by Marshal Joffre, 'the Anglo-French forces on the battlefronts are "nibbling' at the German lines in a series of highly successful minor operations.' But while these enterprises are called local in comparison with the mighty battles that have been raging on the Picardy and Flanders battlefields, earlier in the war they - would have been called big en gagements. . Following the capture of Vllle Sur Ancre, on the northern end of the Pic ardy front, the British attacked on the southern end of the Flanders sone Tues day night, gaining ground near Merville. Mervllle. lies from seven to eight miles northwest of the British railhead and base -position of Bethune, in the district where the Germans have been heavily shelling the allied lines for several daya Gigantic duels with big guns continue over the greater part of the two battle sones. North of Albert, m the Hebu terne zone, where many European war critics look for the next German blows to fall, there was Intense shelling, and also between Nieppe forest and Meteren. about midway along the Flanders battle line. East of Arras and from the Scarpe river.-to Hill No. 70 north of Lens the Germans have increased their artillery activity. This was the sixty-second day of the German grand offensive. JOURNAL OPENS NB7 - FREE TRAVEL FOR ALL BUREAU TOURISTS Dorsey B. Smith Has Charge of Department to Assst Travel lers irr Many Ways; frent, ready to strike the moment Field Marshal Hindenburg finds an opening. I calculate that 100 divisions of shock troops (1.200,000 men) are awaiting Hindenburgs order. Forty of these are fresh, not having been used in this season's fighting. The other 60 have been out of the line long enough to be rested and doped up morally by Ger many's professional spirits boosters. Without prophesying what will be the nature of his next blow, or blows, this effort naturally ought to be his final or semi-final attempt. Expeeted to Rammer British From nowon. all prisoners returning from Russia, together with the 1919 class, returned wounded and the rest probably will barely suffice to keep his active divisions up to anything like their Intended strength. The kaiser may ' undertake elaborate feints here and there, but the indica tions are his main thrust will be against the British or the French -and British combined. My Information is that the Germans will hammer the British with the bulk of their army, simultaneously spread ing propaganda to the effect that the British do not fight as well as the other allies, in order to create friction among the entente nations. Meanwhile prisoners admit that Ger man mouths are still watering for Amiens and the cool, gray valley of the Somme, stretching toward the sea. Fine Fighting Weather Coatlaaes Thus, with double objectives one Im pudent and , sinister, the other daring and desperate Hindenburg may be ex pected shortly to set the western bat- tlefront ablaze. In the meantime, events out here are proceeding as usual before an offensive. There is considerable shelling by high explosives and Jockeying for the high ground that furnishes the advantage of position. X no air aiongr ui Domma im bussing with allied and German planes, the aerial fighting being of unusual The finest fighting weather ot the war continues. There has been only one shower since a week ago and this waa insufficient to settle the dusty. bone-dry roads. The trees lining the roads are covered with -a fine, white. powder,1 while motors resemble the dust covered hero in the third act of "Shenandoah. The fields aye a beautiful green, right up to the trenches. Both the Somme and. Lys -battlefields look semi-tropical more like Louisiana than Northern France. It would be strange If Hindenburg al lowed such weather to be wasted. These days favor an offensive far more than a defensive battle.
