In arranging for the War Savings campaign in Oregon and in Portland
lists were prepared in .advance, with-the names, addresses and rating of eitl
ena. Thus the volunteer solicitors were enabled to know beforehand approx
imately the amount that each citizen should invest in proportion to his finan
cial ability. v-.-. . ,. - ". ' '
At the end of the campaign one of the tasks of the local accounting organ
ization is to credit to each person listed the amount of investment. Those who
have failed to Invest are also recorded. Ail the lists, -according to government
requirements, must be forwarded to Washington, where they are rechacked.
Before these lists are forwarded, it will be th duty, of the state director of
the War Savings campaign to write to all persons who appear to hav failed
to subscribe in proportion to their ability and give them one more opportunity
to aid in floating the War Savings loan." This final call will go especially to
citizens of known financial ability who have failed to invest.
It is the earnest hope of the campaign managers that no loyal citizen of
Oregon will wait for that final call.

was tu i baby. He . lived? -ther. the re
mainder of his life until April 23,- W,
when he enlisted in" the artillery. He
was taken "to Kansas Cit-r and then to
efferson barracks, and from there sent
to Fort Casey, where he remained -until
last Saturday, when he was given a fur
lough. He went from Port Townsend
to' Seattle by boat, and stayed in Seattle
Saturday night with a friend. - Sunday
night ha went, back to Port 'Townsend,
returning to Seattle, however. -.Monday.
He said he didn't want to go back to
camp because he failed in theOvcraeas

According to his 'statement, he slept
In the Central hotel Monday night with
Leroy Ward, Tuesday night sleeping
with a frTehd arid Wednesday and
Thursday nights r sleeping VifOi a man
named Van Horn at the Arlington hiM.
Accordina- to his statement; he. -decided
he would beat his way back v home on
Tbursday, so he went to the Imperial
pawn shop and bought a gun as a mat
ter of self-protection.
Tnursaay afternoon ne saia ne went
to First and Washington or First and
Jackson streets, where he hired a Jitney
to take him to Redmond, the fare be-
trig agreed on as 17.60. Fearing that
when he got to Redmond the driver
would have bim arrested if he did not
pay ..he said he decided first to hold him
up, later changing his mind and de
termining to kill him.
"It took me about IB minute- to get
up courage to kill him after I had de
cided," Adams continued in his state
ment. He said that death was tnstan
taneous and that he reached over Ray
mer's shoulder and stopped the machine
himself.
Aaswers Qaettioas Deliberately
While telling this story Adams was
calm and composed and did not seem
excited. He only aaked for a cigarette
and a drink of water during the entire
conversation. Adams Is a tall husky
youth and from his appearance would
not be classed as a criminal. He
appears to be bright. Captain Circle
of tha detective bureau "said i " v
I can hardly imagine a young fel
low of - his intelligence doing a thing
like that. I don't think, that he real
ises what be has done." , '
Adams, did not flinch Under this ex
amination conducted by Deputy District
Attorney Bernard, but answered every
question with deliberation. .He is aald
to have told the officials that he would
not fight extradition, and that "he
would -s go back - to Seattle as soon as
the officers saw fit to. take him back.
Adams said that his parents were Mr.
and Mra C. B. Adams of Grand View;
He said that he has a younger brother:

He enlisted at. Grand View April 23
of this year. ., Inspectors Go Its and
Howell were assigned to the case by
Captain Circle when the telegram ar
rived from Seattle telling of the murder.
The officers learned that the car had
been seen in Chehalis, so they supposed
that he was coming through Portland
and notified service stations in Port
land to be on the lookout. ,
Admitted Former Troiele "
While -Stalking down Burnslde street
the officers saw Adama la the stolen
car. They commandeered another car
and .took; after him, but lost him in the
mase of traffic They then started to
look again for the machine and found
it at Third and Stark streets, where
Adams had parked it for a few minutes
while he was trying to sell his gun In a
pawnshop. He had robbed Raymer of
$25, but had spent the money for a new
suit of coveralls, for gasoline -and In
food.- When he emerged from tha store
one of the officers grabbed him br the
arm with one hand, ran the other around
his waist until he found the gun, pushed
him into the waiting car and rushed him
to police headquarters. .
During the conversation Adams
further admitted that he waa arrested
on a charge of forgery when 15 years of
age. He said that he was paroled on
that ehare. . . '-

All uncertainty over Northwest farmers
receiving $2.20. the Chicago basic price
for wheat, was cleared today with as
surances given Senator McNary by Food
Administrator Hoover. After consider
ing the situation caused by Increased
railroad freight rates. Hoover states
that th shipping board will advance its
rates from $3.50 to $5.50 per ton. with
out change in the flour rate, but the
food administration will maintain Its
promise to Northwest growers and the
president will shortly promulgate new
prices, which, will officially designate
the Chicago basic price at Pacific coast
terminals.
In a statement by Hoover the situa
tion is thus explained : "The recent ad
vance In railway rates has had the ef
fect of raising the price of wheat at the
Atlantic; seaboard ports by 11 or 12
cents per bushel. The advance of $2
per ton on the shipping rat on wheat.
with no advance on flour, would equalize
the position of flour millers on :be Pa
cific coast who have been prejudiced by
the wide difference hitherto and this
advance; together with increased insur
ance and port costs on all side, would
apparently aosorp an, ir. hoi mora, nun
the advance on the price of wheat at
Atlantic ports.
"On the other hand, the food admir.is
tratlon has given assurance of int train
ing the $2.20 wheat price and without
any larger increase : than above men
tioned, we eovtid still manage it, and. If
necessary, absorb some loss In the gen
eral operation
' 'Federal ---Grain Commissioner Max H.
Houser believes ,; that the $2.20 price
basis for Northwest tidewater terminals
will have a powerful Influence in direct-
Ing to the coast wheat shipments from
as far to the east aa; Montana common
points. The terminal -price basis Is the
chief concern, of the -growers; the ad
vanced water rate from the Paclf'c
coast to the Atlantic seaboard, chiefly
th concern of the dealers. But a num
ber of th dealers, . particularly the
heavy mining interests, havebeen more
or leas antagonistic to the low rate on
wheat.' fearing that, unless rigid gov-ernmenf-.control
of shipments were ex
ercised., it would induce wheat rather
than floux carjro loading.

ing to E. W. Reesman, moving factor of
the United Motor Bus Co., who declares
that he will file the bonds probably
Tuesday. ' Since the city council last
week, by the narrow margin of on vote,
declined to enact the Kellaher amend
ment eliminating the franchise clause m
the present ordinance, Mr. Rosaman says
that it will now be necessary for the Jlt

for the privilege of operating Jitney
busses without a franchise and upon un

.. The representatives of the United Mo

were not at that time assured of their
ability to meet the bond requirement.

will be available for passenger transpor
tation business Just as soon as the way
