YOUNG MEN UNDER
21 ARE URGED TO
STAY 1 SCHOOL
Oregon . Educators Form Plan to
Enlist Boys From 18 to 21 for
Technical Training.
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.

poral E. Frizzle, a forest engineer now
in France, who is well known in Klam

airplane single handed and unarmed
though his antagonist had two loaded
pistols, was vividly described in The

Frizzle saw the plane drop and the pilot
jump out, "covered" the German officer
with a monkey wrench and cried,
"Hands up, you Heinle, before I
knock your block off." "Heinle" com
plied and was taken a prisoner into the
American camp.

Irrigation Project Delayed
Klamath Falls, June 25. 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.

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.

TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL)
Representative Sinnott today introduced
a bill to authorize the appropriation of
? 1,000,000,000 to be used as needed for

soldiers, sailors and nurses, under the
provision of the reclamation law, which
would reimburse the government under

ASHLEY SAYS HE
HAD SUFFERED
THIRTY YEARS
Felt So Weak Just Had to
Drag Himself Around,
He Says.
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."
