TRAINED MEN ARE NEEDED Resolution Calls for Public Opin ion to Keep Boys in School Until Draft Age Is Reached. mSOrWHEN HE OPENED DRIVE The drive to keep young- men In the h)h schools and colleges of Oregon until they become 21 years of age Is on. John K. KoUock and W. F. Woodward, representing the State Council of De fense. yesterday .afternoon held a meet ing In the Portland library with 30 school principals and superintendents from various parts of the state. An emergency is declared to exist. Trained men are needed In military and in civilian service, and the young men must prepare. After the need for trained workers was emphasized, a plan was urged under which young men between the ages of 18 and 21 would be enlisted for service In school and placed under military training and discipline. The plan evolved by college presidents of the United States, who met with the National Council of De fense at Washington, D. C. It is pro posed to hold young men in school to prepare them to be of the greatest value to the government In winning the war. Preparation also Is aimed for the critical period one of keen competition In all lines which Is ex pected to follow the war. ReiolatloQ Is Adopted After the educators had formulated the plan for Oregon, a resolution was passed calling upon the State Council of Defense to appoint a committee Immediately "to formulate definite plans to bring force of public opinion to bear on young men between the ages of 18 and 21 years to enter school and to stay In Hchool until they become of draft age." P. L.. Campbell, president of the Uni versity of Oregon, in calling attention to the educational needs, said: "An emergency actually exists. Public opin ion Khould be brought to bear not only to keep boys In school, but to put boys In school who are not there. One of the most serious situations the gov ernment is facing lies In the shortage of trained men-1' and women for all kinds of military and civilian service." To cite the emergency, the statement was made that President Kerr of the Oregon agricultural college had been called upon to supply the government with 33 chemists and technical men; that he had scoured the Northwest but had succeeded In supplying only four men. Man Power Not Short f President Kerr spoke briefly: '-'It takes 'fnore TWirage now, under present con "dltions. for a young man to remain out of the service and continue in school than to enter the service." "If you want 1.000,000 men, you can lower .or raise the draft age and you can get them," declared H. H. Herd man Jr., principal of Washington high school, "but if you want officers to take charge of these young men you can get them only by the slower process of education and training." Mr. Herdman's statement formed the theme around which the educators' In terest centered, since the young men are the logical ones to be trained for skilled work. Present at the meeting was E. F. Carleton, assistant state superintendent, who represented the state department. BUY w. . a. DussrldorfT Is Hungry lxmrton. June 25. (I. N. S.)

Putting wa ter on the 2500 acres of land in the Big- Springs unit near Bonanza, east of this city, has been delayed owing to a decision of the ranchers to raise the pump about four feet to prevent the pos sibility of its being swept away by high water In the spring, according to residents of that section. As soon as this work is completed the water will be turned oh for the first time. It is believed that the whole 6000 acres in that section, which are to be put under irrigation this year by means of the various pumping plants, will be covered within the next three weeks. BUY W. 8. S. Strike in Munition Works to Be Averted Washington. June 25. (I. N. S.) Secretary of War Baker took steps Mon day to avert a wholesale strike of workers at the Bridgeport munitions works, scheduled for Wednesday. In a telegram to the leader of the local union the secretary demanded that there should be no interruption to the vital task of supplying the army with munitions, and there is a vague hint that drastic steps might be taken by the government to prevent the threatened walkout. Re fusal of the, manufacturers to agree to recent government wage awards is re sponsible for the threatend strike, which, while immediately confined to about 500 workers, is likely to extend to oth ers.

Statement after statement is now being made by the people of Portland about Tanlac. the ' medicine that is accomplishing such surprising and gratifying results in this city and vicinity. B. L. Ashley, a well known carpenter and painter, living at the Wabash hotel, 204 Madison street, !n describing his case and failure to here tofore find relief, ' said : ' "I have suffered, more or less, for 30 years with rheumatism, which af fected the whole of my right side from my shoulder down into my foot. My kidneys got out of order during the past few years and bothered me so much that I was hardly able to get any rest at night. At times I had attacks of lumbago and was in ro much misery that I could hardly movt myself. Then, my appetite went back on me several months ago and my stomach got in such a bad shape I could hardly digest anything I would eat. Most everything caused sour ness, gas and fermentation and intense pain. All my energy seemed to leave me and I got to where I never felt like doing, my work. I was con stipated, felt weak and tired an the time and Just had to drag myself around. '"I have spent lots of money trying to get these troubles checked up, but nothing ever seemed to do me much good until I read how Tanlac was helping others and commenced taking It myself. Well. I finished my first bottle of this medicine, feeling just like a brand new man. and now Fm actually in better shape than I havs been In many years. My appetite came back to me in full force, I soon got so I could eat without having that sourness and gas, and then my rheumatic trouble and other pains began to disappear. Nothing I eat hurts me a particle now, my kidneys don't bother me any more1 and I sleep good; every night, I lon't have any more' aches and pains of any kind and by using the Tanlac Tablets in con nection with Tanlac I have been relieved of constipation and all my tired feelings. I have also gained several pounds in. weight, and as Tanlac has helped me so much I feel like I ought to tell others about it." Tanlac la sold In Portland by The Owl Drur company. . . (Adv.) !
