GRILL HAYWOOD In ft fir Tir I J Letters OI 1. W. YY. Leader Are Now Proving Hard for Him to Explain CinAGO, Aug. 12. A large num ber of letters were yead Into the ree ord of the I.W.W. trial before Fed eral Judge Landls today by Frank K. Nebeker. chief counsel for the prosecution, . In support of the gov ernment's charge that wunam v Haywood, general . secretary and treasurer of the organization talked the war and used his Influence as head of the body to interfere witn the government military policy. On direct examination Haywood declar ed that he had never spoken a word or written a line in opposition to conservation and the war, On ' cross-Examination Attorney Nebeker nroduced a mass of docu mentary evidence to refute the denial of the I.W.W. leader. Haywood as kept busy in a vain effort to explain the contents or iei ters which he had written and re ceived from his lieutenants contain ing numerous references against the government s war plans, on several occasions he deniea navmg wnuen certain letters with which he was nnexnectedlr confronted, and ' at tempted to place the blame on nis assistants. He was obliged to admit the I. w. W. had employed lawyer to derena all members arrested for evading tne army drart dui aeniea mai me sen- eral executive Doara oi ine urKtui- zation had ever adopted a resolution oDDosine war He also admitted that members had been ndroDDed from the rolls after they had entered the army. One letter was read In wmcn nay wood advised a lieutenant to be careful to do nothing which might be construed as giving comfort and sunnort to the enemy- In reply to questions he explained by the enemy he meant Germany. "Was it your solicitude tor tnis country that caused you to give that advice? Inquired Attorney Nebek er. " "Not so much mr solicitude for this country as my hatred for Ger many, replied Haywood.

IN WITNESS BOX MISS TELLS OF CORVALUS TRIP Alice Jaqnct Is Well Repaid for Efforts Put Forth in Clah Work Alice Jacquet. of Victory point district is another of the Marlon county industrial club girls who made good In club work and secured a scholarship In the summer tcourse at Corvallis. She took first prize at the state fair in dairy herd record keeping. Miss Jacquet Is IS year old: Writing of her experience at Corvallis she says: I left Salem Monday morning Iwth the other club winers from Marion county. 'At the depot at Corvallis we weri me by one of the clnb ladies who took the other Marion county girl and myself to the Delta Alpha soror ity house, where we were to stav during the two weeks.- ' Wo were eighteen girls there and we took all the house excepting the kitchen This was good practice as we learned many new ways of keeping house. They hrd a cook there to prepare our meals. She certainly did know how to rook. 'We had two assemblies each day. one fn the forenoon and the other Id the afternoon. At these assemblies educational men and women would speak to us. Also the county and state club leaders from different parts of the state. Mr. Newhlll. as sistant national club leader, from Washington, D. C. was with us all during last week. He gave us a dem onstration on canning and one on th drying of vegetables, fruits and meat. These were very Interesting as he showed us how to do many thing we had never known before. "Mr. Brewster gave as two lect ures on poultry and showed n around the yardsat the college. We also had lectures on cooking, - sew ing and housekeeping which were very Instructive. "Between 3 and 4 o'clock each day we did lied Cross work. In the evening there was nearly always something planned for us. 'The first Sfturday that we were there we had no work to da except Ing the morning work at the house. We divided. Into teams and played tennis, basketball, passball and other games. We also had races. During the last few days we have had one hour of gymnasium each day. W had the privlledge to- go through an of the buildings on the grounds. "We certainly had a fine time and I have been more than paid for th work I did to get this prise. Thi was not only a very enjoyable trip- but a , very profitable one also. Looked Closer, Found It Salem was quieter than a church Sunday and Monday nights, accord ,n to tne Do""- The only thing reported last night was the theft of a bicycle from In front of the Y.M.C. A. And that wasn't a theft It was only a Joke; for after being advised by tbe police to go back and look a little closer, the owner found the machine unharmed. And that Is the sum total of the crimes. Nobody seems to know where the German army on the western front is going, but it is certainly on Its way. Glddap! MARY GARDEN PLAYS CHILDHOOD VIOLIN IN GOLD WYN FILM Treasured by Mother for Years, it fe Ued Again in "The Splendid Khmer Celebrated all over the world as a queen or opera. It Is not generally known that Mary Garden Is a musi cian as well. Her song and her act ing have enthralled audiences every where, and it is supposed that she la something of a pianist as well. Not, however, until she appeared for tho first scenes of "The Splendid Sin ner." which Goldwyn presents at the i wag jt fcnown that Mary Garden 1 1 accomDllshed violinist. In the play she assumes the role of a gor geous figure in New York's Bohe mia, who finds consolation and for getfulness In the music of her violin. When she is lonely she plays it. and often when she Is queen of the revels given by her patron.

Balena'a Leading Junk . Dealers Comer of Crater and Court rhone 700 SUGAR RULING IS EXPLAINED BY SECRETARY Consumers Largely on Honor, But Inspector Might Come Some Time TWO USES PERMLSSABLE Explanations That Are Hard to Make Should be Avoid ed, Is Advice "If you do not buy sugar specifi cally for domestic use, you have no right under the law to nse sugar for your household no, not even spoonful as a chaser for a dose of quinine," Is the substance of the In structions issued by Frank J. Chap man, manager of the Comerclal elnt and secretary of the county food ad ministration. The householder who buys quantity of sugar for canning pur poses does so according to law, and with the best of motives for food con serration. Bat the canning permit does not carry with It the right to use any of that sugar for domestic purposes not even to sweeten a cup of tea for an tnvalid or a dish of mush for the baby. Domestic nse is entirely apart from this canning business. To have sugar legally for the table or home use. one must bay it for that specific purpose. Stealing, Hajm Chapman "Some have bought the canning sugar, and used from that fir their domestic needs. That' Is absolutely contrary to the spirit of the law The canning sugar Is sold as such as such specifically for canning, and the buyer Is put on honor to use it only for that purpose. This is apart from the sale of sugar for domestic uses; which Is now limited. to two pounds per month for each person it had been three pounds until th recent reduction. "If you want sugar for the table. buy It under domestic regulations, and don't attempt to use tbe canning sugar for table use. Under the law It constitutes an offense carrying penalty, and no one wilt wish to be prosecuted for such a violation, when the terms are so clear and definite that each sale Is only for Its own par pose. It might seem unnecessary to keep two sugar bins but that is the legal way, and then when one has used the domestic quota for the month, to stop using until the next month rolls around. Not merely to borrow from your store of eannin sugar; that Is not the law, any more than a clerk may borrow from his employer's till without that employe Knnwing It, just necause the em ployer will owe him some money in the future If he keeps on working. Tbe householder might more away or for any of a thousand reason might not be able to replace that borrowed sugar. And borrowing it too mild a term it Is stealing when sugar Is bought under the spe cific terms as stated. Buy Separately I Advice "Better bny your domestic sugar and your canning sugar separately; yon nse the canning sugar nn your table, which Is sold usder 2 ponnd permits and are reaewaMe as canning needs are shown to be legit-j Imate, you have taken more- thap your share of this most necessary food, and some one else will have to go short.. This means for every body to be honest and fair, and not to lambaste the linn as the thief of the world for stealing Belgium and everything else that Is looee, than for one's robbing one's own next door patriotic neighbor of a ruj of sugar that he needs to make life sweet. It Is Isn't cither gcod busi ness or good morals to dodge the Is sue now that It Is called to mind. the administration hopes that no prosecutions will necessary for viola tions." The foregoing was stated In sub stance, for the benefit of those who have been in doubt as to how to pro. ceed for their sugar. The present regulations call for the Issuance of canning permits to buy twenty-five pounds of sugar at time; they were not limited In number, but the aplkant is put on honor to use the sugar for this spe cific purpose. When one amount Is used, another may be secured on proper showing that it Is for canning purposes. But anyone using su secured under a caning permit, for table or cooking purposes. Is liable to prosecution and a heavy punish ment. The sugar for domestic pur poses now is now to be sold la two- pound lots, to town customers, an In five-pound lots to country cus tomers, up to the legal amount of two pounds per month for each mem ber of the family. Old Permit Now Void All the old permits for the pur chase of larger quantities than twen ty-five pounds for canning or anv purpose, are now abrogated and void. Keep them for souvenirs of the great war. Is the adfice of those who know best; they're worth more for that purpose than for presenta tion at the stores. And don't forget which Is which; for the Inspector might come around asking Tor an explanation and ex planations are sometimes mighty troublesome things to make.

TWO RECRUITERS MARKING TIME Would-Be Kaiser Killers Eag er for Fray, Bet Most Await Draft The anouncemeat from Washing ton that all recruiting for both arniv and navy service would be discontin ued until after the settlement of the hew draft law has led to a shut-off of all enlistments from the two Sa- letn recruiting offices. J. E. Adams, of the navy of fice received a horry-ap telegraph message, Saturday afternoon, from a1 young man at Ktaytoa. asking If be conld enlist in either the army or navy. Adams was not a He to speak authoritatively for the army, but h had to answer that he couldn't do thing for the prospective warrior ex cept to wish him all tbe fightin Fncle Sam would let him do and he did not know how much that would be. "Hard lurk, old man." and th ser geant almost wept over having to turn down a willing scrapper when It was his business to enlist them Jo as fast as they could come la or he can drag or Inveigle them lato the service. "I'd like to take you In and be your military godmother, hut it simply can't be done. Maybe they'll let you In on the class 1 when they get the drart fixed. Yes. we're licking the everlasting stuff ing out of the Huns over there, now. and maybe they'll have Fritz and hi skin properly separated before you can get Into the game on your draft turn. But remember how thought ful It Is for those other two million Americans already in the sejrvice, to give them their own chance at the kaiser and his six rat-fared sons an old Trplta with his alfalfa whiskers and Hlndy with his Berkshire chops If yon went now, you'd do most of 1 alone and there wouldn't be enough glory to spread as thick os war but ter over the rest of the army. Aw fully sorry old mas. but until tbev tell me to take in a few more lncen diary fighters I can't do anything for you. Better luck next time." Tbe government will not receive bill for any such long telegram; for the earnest militarist had already de posited the money to pay for the re ply and all the recruiting officer had to do was to write IL and moarn be cause he couldn't accept the kaiser- killer for instant service. The national draft board is to meet In Washington- Monday, to take no tion on the further recruiting ques tion. Until the results are announced from that meeting, the local office are marking time. Officer Adams believes that the prohibition will be lifted after the status of the drafteeo Is fixed, and that he will again be allowed to accept recruits at the old stand. "But you can never tell! and one wonders If he hasn't aeen some criss crossed orders in his nantleal lif that made him fay It so earnestly.
