THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM, OREGON. WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 3. 1920 WILLAMETTE CHAPTER, AMERICAN RED CROSS During the World war. the Re 1 Cro'M war known throughout tlie.j world because ot the aid "It. gave i Boldier-i and sailors of every na tionality. The war if over. L.v service men and their1 family re quire assistance. The Ued Ctom-Is giving all aid possible. At pres ent there are 4 4 case3 ponding in Marlon and Polk counties. Tne Willamette chapter must carry these through. It devotes its time, and money for this purpose and must depend upon tha resi dents of the two counties. to sup port It in its work. Men who fought overseas have "returned to their homes' mentally weakened. Because of lack of other facilities, some of them have been placed in state insti tutions. This fact has occasioned much comment in this, commun ity. The Red Cross is earning on a program of untold worth in i this field. Visaing nurs?s visit the institutions, write the parents about their boys and see that the ex soldier or sailor is given fruit and other luxuries of a real home. Obviously this work must be done quietly and quflfkly. Only the boys themselves and their par ents, can .tell of the happiness which1 the Red Cross brings them. Over 900 visits have been made to - private homes and institu tions for this and similar mat ters. - Many ex-service mea have cap italized :the fact of their f&Traer service and Imposed upon the lo cal- organization. In spite ot that fact, every ex-soldier or sailor now applying at the Red Cross headquarters f is received with open arms and given all possible as: Stance. Ev?ry reasonable de mand Is riven fulfillment. From serurin? positions to giving ac tual support in cases of deferred allotments, etc.. the Red Cross has acl?d promptly and wisely. Thet types of ass run the ga mut from applications for aid in securing allotments to the work ot. getting proper dental assist ance. Willamette chapter has co operated with the public health Fervi.ce dentists located in Salem and elsewhere. Many cases are yet on fila and 'are being rapidly cared Tor. Allotments nave been obtained for men who have given up all hope of obtaining them One man received approximately $2300 through the activity of the local chapter. The amounts ad vanced to men to tide them over until their allotments arrive, reaches up into the thousands. Th's branch of the work has Hef; (2) emergency relief and iZ) soldiery relief. Emphasis irom now on will, throughout the world, be placed upon the first two branches for most of the ex service men have lieen aided. At present, the Red Cross provides medical -social service to men treated in government hospitals. Over r.O United States public health service hospitals are open in the t'nitfd ' States today. On Aujrust t, &) men were cared for in these hospitals. Under re cent congressional ruHngr, 13.000 more beds are- to be added at once.

Although the vote on the meas ures was meagre, scattering re turnsreceive 1 up to an early hour this morn i nc indicated that all ot them probably were defeated in Marion county with the pos sib'e exception of the bill to regu late the sale of oleomargarine, and extend the terms of county offices to four years. The com pulsory voting measure and the bill fixing, the maximum lecal rate of interest in Oregon at 3 per cent probably will lose by the most decisive vote of any of the measures, amendmentsand refer endnms referred to the people of Marion county at yesterday's elec tion, j" Because or the length of the ballot, and the fact that the polls did not close until 8 o'clock, the count "was slow and returns were difficult to obtain. This was es pecially true in the rural districts. Voting I Heavy. It was estimated last night that practically 80 per cent of the reg istered voters in Marion county went to the polls. The women especially were active in the elec tion, and their ballots played an important part in swelling the to tals. , i-ast night hundreds of people about ot four years ago which changed apparent victory - for Hughes into election for Wilson would hot be repeated. Democratic managers, early in the night pro fessed confidence that the vote from the west would overcome the sentiment of the east while the Republican managers continued to issue predictions of victory. ltixNIitie Uotiffded, As the, landslide in the east con tinued to roll on. however, and the first indications came that it would extend westward there evi dently was some hurried commun ication between Governor Cox at Dayton and the Democratic mana gers "in New York, for their an nouncements conceding the elec tion of Harding came out in Day ton and in New- York at virtually the same time. At the same moment he con ceded the election of Harding. Democratic Chairman White also conceded the election of a Repub lican congress. One striking feature of the situ ation in fact an-almost anomolus one was that wlille the election of Senator Harding was being con ceded, there were actually not suf ficient election returns on hand to compile a table of electoral votes showing the distributions of states votes in the electoral college. At the hour the Democratic con cession ot Republican victory was made, there were practically no returniln to show the trend of voting on congress .The few re turns at hand showed few net ine bad 30,2 43 votes to Cox's 17.- -i0.

Note particularly the violin resonator, with its plates at top and bottom carved from seasoned I spruce, the same wood from which violins are ' made. These plates vibrate as tones pass through them, adding color value and sweet ness. And for the same reason that a violin grows sweeter with age, it is also true of The Cheney that the Republican side. The Demo cratic fight for control of the sen- ace, particularly of its potential ef fect on consideration of the peace treaty issue, showed no signs of waning. Penrose of Pennsylvania Cummins of Iowa. Wadsworth of New York.
