With not an accident to report
during the entire two weeks; of the
national accident prevention cam
paign ending Friday midnight, the
Southern Pacific railroad north of
Ashland has made the best record
in the Northwestern region and fin
ished the drive far in advance of any
other railroad system west of Chi
cago. lhirlng the entire period of the drive
only five accidents occurred on rail
roads centering in Portland. Four of
lhefg accidents happened upon the Oregon-Washington
railroad system and
two are yet disputed as to whether they
come under the Interstate commerce
rulings.
O-AWMAT HAE SECOND PLACE
Kvtn with four accidents, it is Re
lieved that the O-W. lines will take sec
ond place among the railroads of the
Northwestern district.
The. only other accident occurring in
I his district was on the Oregon Trunk
line, this being Die first that that system
had recorded since early in March.
Other railroad lines under A. J. David
son, federal manager of the Spokane.
Portland & Seattle and Oregon Electric
lines reported clear records. .
In addition to the records on the Oregon-VjjTashington
and Southern Pacific
lines, the other sections under Jederal
Manager L. P. O'Brien, including the
Northern Pacific terminal and the Pa
cific coast lines, reported clear records.
TWO MANNERS OFFERED
U. II. Aishton, regional director or the
Northwestern railroads tinder the ad
ministration, had offered one banner to
the road having over 2000 employes and
another to the road having under 2000
employes making the best record during
the campaign.
The Southern Pacific will undoubtedly
receive, the first banner, as its nearest
competitor with a clear record was the
Baltimore & Ohio terminal at Chicago,
wttiT 2200 employes. The Southern Pa
cific hits 5300 employes.
It is possible that the Northern Pa-
elf ic terminal may receive the banner
for the best record among districts with
less than 200 employes, as it had a
clear record during the two weeks.
NORTHWESTERN DISTRICT LEADS
The entire Northwestern district was
leading the Qther'slx regions of the

NAME GOODWILL INDUSTRIES
Meeting Called Tuesday . Night!
for Definite Action; Industry
to Be Incorporated.
By Ernest V. Peterson .
Unfortunate and poor persons are
to have, an opportunity to secure for
themselves and their families all
manner of wearing apparel; aged
and tnfirm men and women not able
to secure employment will 6e given
the advantage of steady employment
under a ereat benevolent acheme

which th W ilbur Methodist church .
Is soon to launch in Portland.
The new project will be known as the.j
Goodwill Industries, which has proved
successful in large centers where It is !
now operating. For months the men i
in Wilbur church have been struggling
with the problem of the best way in
which to aid the unfortunate. The so
lution was made known to the great
centenary movement of the church. At
once came the offer of several thousand
dollars to back up the movement. It
was then whispered to the Portland Ro
tary club. "We'll abandon our charit
able program and get behind yours,"
the dub committee said. And In addi
tion every Methodist ehurch in the city
has been asked to join.
COMMITTEE TO BE APPOINTED
Tuesday night leading Methodist lay
men of Portland will meet at the Hotel
Multnomah, where the entire proposition
will be considered .and where a com
mittee will be appointed to draw up Is.
articles of Incorporation. When the new
Industry is incorporated under the laws
of Oregon the work can begin. The
meeting for Tuesday night has been
called by Robert II. Hughes, editor of
the Pacific Christian Advocate, and a
W fi-c tM th inrt,,atrv will do 1
will be to secure a suitable building. 1
possibly three or four stories high. Then j
they will give the poor employment by '
having them make about 5,000 cloth j
bags about the size of a laundry bag.
Later men will be employed to distrib-j
ute these to the homes In Portland.
COLLECT OLD CLOTHING
The good citizens of Portland will
then be asked to put their old clothing,
and other articles, In these bags, In
cluding furniture, etc. Whenever the
bag is full a call to headquarters will
bring an auto truck, and the sack will
be taken away.
Here begins the employment of old
people. Those who cannot secure em
ployment in faeVrtea W'H De welcome
at the Goodwill industry, where they
will be given opportunity to mend
clothes, press suits, make a good pair
of shoes out of two pairs otherwise
.. - n 1. I.m m Arl.l kati ranoMnir rtlft
j furniture, etc. All kinds of employment
will be' offered.
I When the artiales are repaired prop
j erly they will be placed In the. Goodwill
store, where the poor of the city may
come and , buy for a nominal sum.
NOTHING GIVEN A WAT
"In the Goodwill store nothing is
given away," Hughes said. "If a man
comes in and announces that he is broke
and needs a pair of shoes, he is told
that he may have employment. At the
end of the day he fs paid his wage and
if he then desires to buy a pair of
shoes far 5 cents or $1.50, he may do earn von tfernsiorn, in a memoran
so. If not, he is at liberty to keep his dum to the war office described Wilson
money and spend it elsewhere. The
Goodwill Industry: will not encourage
begging. It will discourage it. Neither
will it interfere with the business of
first class merchants. The only people
the industry will harm will be junk
j men and second hand merchants. The
I good which the industry will do will
i overshadow any harm to small business
I houses."

The old diplomat, who startled the

SLAYS HER TWQ TOTS;
IS IN STATE OF COMA
Mrs. Helen Faust. Has Suffered
Unremittant Grief Sitae Death
of Her Soldier Husband.
San Francisco. Nov. 1. (IT. P.)-Mrs.
Helen M. Faust, a talented and beautiful
woman of 25, lies Inert on a cot in the
detention hospital tonight while her two
babies are dead.
This is a tragedy of the great war,
brought home to a little family. Mrs.
Faust, for five years a student at the
University of California, was widowed In
January, when Lieutenant Thomas Faust
of the American air service died while
en route home.
Unremittant grief brought the young
woman to a state of mind that in be
lieved by the police to have caused her
to kill her two children late today.
Bhe was found by her mother, Mrs.
Ilattie Stites, of Stitep. Cal., leaning
apalnst a wall in her home In a half
swoon, while her two children, Gilbert,'
aged 4, and Thomas Baldwin, 7 months,
lay dead near her.
Police believe Mrs. Faust administered
a sleeping potion to the children and
possibly herself took It, causing the
8tate of half-coma in whirh she remained
tonight. No container was founs near
the bodies, however. A charge of mur
der will be preferred pending an investi
gation of her mental condition.
Mrs. Faust became a mother the- sec
ond time after the death of her husband.
This seemed only to add ttf- her grief.
