I Three armistice celebrations,
including the . false armistice ot
November 9, were observed by
Oregon's 20.000 World, war
' troops, i who served In every com
bat division and. supply service of
the army in France, Belgium.
Italy and. Siberia, Major General
George: A. White, commander of
the Oregon national guard, said
' yesterday. .,:. , -
j-Maay American soldiers died in
action after the armistice of 19
years ago, 'while White also told
how ai German general nearly
messed np - the signing ' of the
agreement to end warfare. ; -
He estimated 15,000 more Ore
gon troops would have gone over
seas had the war lasted through
the whiter. Oregon's war ' casualties-
were 2,130 men.
i " ' .False Peace Heard
The false armistice, White,
en si lieutenant colonel, said,
"came ion me on the Mease river
when was returning November
S from! Dun Sur Meuse. which the
Americans captured that after
- 'Soon. ; Major Fred WV Ledbetter
and Captain Cicero F. Hogan, both
of Portland, had to get. back to
theirjorganlzations that; night.
Oar automobile was creeping
through the black, night without
lights.! when the whole country
suddenly began sparkling with
fires. j: :.,-,,;';
I "Hundreds of thousands of sol
diers had come ont of their mud
furies to warm themselves when
they heard through the grape
vine that the armistice had been
signed.!
j "It took several hours to get
those fires out and let-the army
knew there had been no armis
tice. j , -i
t The next, day White went to
Paris to straighten out the con
flicting rumors, and was informed
the war would end at 11 a.m. the
next day. v;... V!; .1
i Propaganda Blamed
l White said the best available
theory ef the flase armistice was
that ft was "adroit German, prop
aganda because the Germans bad
to hare peace. '".
f "Th4 theory was that once the
klled people had tasted , an arm
istlce celebration they would not
he in a humor to resume the war,
aa aome military leaders wanted
to do on the theory that an allied
drive 0n Berlin was the proper
prelude to the final peace.
i White was in Paris when the
armistice was .signed before day
... break. ' ' ' . .Vv-
"The German white flag that
came oyer from German headquar
ters wa accompanied by a Ger
man ..general who had been m
attache at Paris before the war
and hid once been siren the
French Legion of Honor, i
. L"Staff-' officers present said
. there was a tense scene when the
German emissary appeared, wear-
- lag his decoration. Marshal Foch
stood Staring at him, refusing to
salute 'ot speak. -:.' j
MThe German finally guessed
what was wrong,, unpinned . his
saedal 1 and put it in his pocket.
Then Foch shook hands with him
-and the armistice parley went on.'
- Troops remained In position on
most fronts until 11 a.m., soldier
trying to fire the last shot of the
war. A celebration broke oat at
the fateful hoar, except in the
so ne of the American second army
which attacked that morning.

next fiscal year than the $6,650,
000,000 predicted for this year
and that instead ot imposing high
er taxes "we should plan to bring
next year expenditures within
this year's ijincome."
The reductions should be made,
he explained. In classes of expen
ditures which have been mainly
responsible; for past deficits. He
said highway expenditures should
be slashed 1 f rom this year's out
lay of 2S3,000,000 to the pre
depression -j level of less than
$100,000,010. No specific figures
were giTen! to indicate how deep
ly he believes reductions should
be made in spending for agricul
ture, relief and public works.
To the farmers he extended the
caution that "no agricultural pro
gram can-lj long endure which
makes excessive demands upon
the federal; treasury, , or Js unfair
to consumers."
Morgentlau Introduced his dis
cussion of methods of equalizing
the tax burjden with the statement
that "ourj tax revenues come
largely from IndlTldual . earnings
and business prof its. We da! not
wish to impose levies which tend
to dry upj these: sources ot tax
revenue." 1
County Budget to
Be Viewed Friday
The second county budget meet
ing of the year will be held by the
combination citizen and court
committee 4 Friday morning. Be
cause the budget was thoroughly

ed to be largely a formality. A
third and ilflnal meeting will be
held later this month.
- Three instead of the customary
two budget meetings were sched
uled while the courthouse con
struction program and special
election were being considered in
order that all laws governing
budget making under the circum

130.000, the sum estimated to be

can not pay certain legacies and
also the bank's claim on its atncTr
assessments. It alleges Mrs. Fry

Highway Head Deems Rale
of 60 MPH Safe in
Some Conditions
PORTLAND, Not. 10-GT)-Re-Tision
of Oregon speed lsws to
permit a maximum of 60 miles an
hour "under some conditions"
was suggested today by Henry F,
Cabell, chairman of the state
highway commission. ;
He criticized the present basic
rule as leaving too much to opin
ion, putting officers at a disad
vantage -and incurring the enmity
of motorists.
"The legislature should set a
maximum speed limit and auth
orize the highway department to
lower it on roads where it is ne
cessary," Cabell told a local civic
group.
He added that the maximum
set should be a matter of study
but that 0 miles an hour seemed
reasonably safe on straight
highways with few intersections.
Unless highway revenues in
crease sharply in the next IS
months, he said, the commission
will be unable to utilize all avail
able federal funds.
