SHIPPERS ARE TAUGHT
HOW BEST TO PREPARE
PARCELS FOR EXPRESS
American Railway Express Co.
Spreading Campaign
to Ail
Parts of the United States.
The campaign inaugurated by the
American Railway Express Company to
spread abroad the gospel of care in pre
paring and handling express packages
began Monday and is now in full swing
in every part of the United States, Work
of reform is to be carried on among em
ployes of the express company as well as
with the general public. I. Waring,
general agent of the Portland office,
has arranged for a series of meetings of
vehicle men, depot platform pen, claim
bureau and office employes, ach to be
addressed by Mr. Waring or! his "four
minute men."- Meetings of ) this char
acter so far in the campaign; have been
well attended and the results have been
excellent, according to Mr. Waring.
The speakers told the express workers
that there is plenty of room for im
provement and that they can! give valu
able aid in the campaign by bringing
their work up to the highest standard.
Owing to war conditions, said1 the speak
ers, the express service has not been as
good as the company expected to make
it, but with these obstacles removed and
every expressman doing hii part, the
way has been cleared for a marked
change for the better.
Valuable suggestions as to jmethods of
marking packages and preparing them
for shipment are being offered to ship
pers by the general agent and his as
sistants. One of the most serious prob
lems of the express company is in locat
ing owers of "no mark express matter,
according to Mr. Waring. These
shipments' which, because of inadequate
packing or marking, lose all - trace of
identification, either of shipper or con
signee, and must e, sent to mark
bureaus, where as effort is made to
put them back on the right track.
The following committees have been
appointed by Mr. ; Waring to assist in
the campaign in Portland : City office,
Messrs. Baucus arid Gaynor ; depot of
fices, Messrs. Vickers, Thomas, Franz,
Morris, Hansen and Diewert ; vehicle de
partment. Messrs. (Clayton and Brooks.
These committees will keep watch of
shipments passing j through the termi
nals and call personally on shippers
whose consignments need attention.

TV0 MOONSHINERS
AND STILL TAKEN
Largest Whiskey Plant Ever
Found! in Willamette Valley
Uncovered in Lane County. .
I
Eugene. Feb. 13. Following a cjue ob
tained from a man In an Intoxicated
condition, a few days ago. Sheriff Fred
G. Stickels of Lane county, assisted by
three Portlr.d revenue men. Wednesday
uncovered! the biggest moonshine whiskey
still ever captured in the Willamette
valley. The operators of the plant were
caught in the act of destroying the evi
dence, j
The stitl was found about three miles
northeast of Coburg, ingeniously hidden
behind a screen of fir boughs. So care
fully camouflaged was the place that
It was practically invisible 25 feet away.
The sheriff and his party visited the
still late 'Tuesday afternoon, but left it
untouched hoping to catch the operator?
in the act .of making liquor when they
returned j The captured moonshiners,
H. W., Buckingham and j Virgil
Glover, however, detected the presence
of the officers from their lookout sta
tion, and when the raid was made they
were industriously destroying tho build
ing and the product.
When the officers first visited the
still they found about 20 gallons of
'slnglings," or first-run wine. The still
was fashioned after the original South
ern moonshiners' "pot still" and the
process of making the liquor reqjuired a
second tun. The plant had been in
operation but two weeks, according to
the prisoners and' no finished product
had yet been turned out.
The captured men claim that this Is
their first attempt at tha Illegal manu
facture of whiskey, but the officers say
that the perfection of the still Indicates
that some one who knew the game had
a hand In Its construction. The still
bears the register No, 19, which indicates
that it was at one time operated under
government supervision. ; !
The original owner of the plant will
be traced through the - records in the
office of Milton A. Miller, collector of
internal revenue.
The men were taken before United
States Commissioner E. O.-Immel and
waived examination. They were bo.un-1
over to the grand Jury - and were re
leased on a joint bail of $1000.
