Salem unit, was effected at a meeting at the armory last night, presided oevr by C. M. Thomas, state organizer who repre sents the state univetjity. To go ahead with the organization and ar range Tor another meeting in about a week which in all probability will be addressed by Colonel John Lead er, a committee was appointed. The membors of the committee are Elmo S, White, chairman; Mayor-elect C. E Albin and Albert Gille The meeting to be arranged will bt a public meeting and is expected to result in a large number of local citizens signing up to take the onrse. A Kood-sized lUt or names was en rolled lapt night. Explanation is made that since the Increased draft age became effective about 80 per cent of the men within the increased age are men with de pendents. Many of lhe feel that if they were called into service a private's our would not suffice to support their families, hence the ne cessity of preparing themselves Tor officers in the event they are called into service. The logic of th s rea soning has been recognized by the stae university, and to meet the con dition it has agreed to send out In structors, who will go from p'ace to place on definite schedule, and give the same course of training that is given in the 30-day course on the university campus. The difference wiM be that the course taken at home will be scattered over more time and will not interfere with th business of those men who are unable to leave their affair to attend the university for a month. The plan is to give the work two nights a week of seven honrs a wet-k. According to rhls plan the course can be completed In six months. Men enrolling In the course are considered actual students of the University of Oregou and receive their grades In the regular war. If they make passing marks they will be recommended for appointment to i Prlrliv tr Watch UM & A SUM V 9 w " have an unusually attractive display of shoes for men, women colors, shades and styles at some of the "government training ! schools, though It they take ad-1 vantage of that opportunity it willl be necessary for them to vnl.st. udy In the course now oriunlzing here carries with it no obligation for service different from that of any other ciivlians. Men up to 65 years of age who are physically fit are ac cepted as students. The university has appointed Mr. Thomas as state rhairn-an for organ ization work only. As soon as units are organized they are turned over to Colonel leader, the famous Irish military instructor at the university who fought in France until he was incapacitated by woiinilfc. From lh" time they are turned over to Colonel Leader they are under lhs control. JUSTICE MOORE IS DEAD (Continued from page 1). 920 Oak street, at 6:20 o'clock yes terday morning.

Had he1 filled out his present term of office to December 31. 1922. he would have served continuously for 30 years as a member of the Oregon supreme court.

I do, not command language to express my admiration of Judge Moore." said Governor Wlthyeombe yesterday. "He was one of the state's most accomplished Jurists and a hard and conscientious worker. If it Is for me to appoint his successor I shall take much time, for a man to rill his place as be rilled It must be a man of high legal attainments. If the vacancy Is filled prior to the November election It will be neces sary for the governor to appoint, and In that event the appointee under the law will serve until his successor Is elected and qualified. Presumably provision could be made on the No vember ballot for writing In the names of the peoples choice for the office. Should that not be done the appointee would serve until the next election of supreme court Justices. The date for filing nominees by In dependent electors or by convention expired yesterday.
