The times require that every branch of our great national effort shall be loyally upheld, and it is peculiarly fitting that at the Christmas sea son the Red Cross should be the branch through which your willingness to help is expressed. You should join the American Red Cross, because it alone can carry the pledges of Christmas good will to those who are bearing for us the real burdens of the world war, both in our own Army and Navy and in the nations upon whose territory the issues of the world-war are being fought out. Your evidence of faith in this work is necessary for their heartening and cheer. You should join the Red Cross because this arm of the National service is steadily and efficiently maintaining its overseas relief in every suffering land, administering our millions wisely and well and awakening the gratitude of every people. Our consciences will not let us enjoy the Christmas season if this pledge of support to our cause and the world's weal is left unfulfilled. Red Cross member ship is the Christmas spirit in terms of action. (Signed) W00DR0W WILSON, . President of the American Red Cross. ) 1D0WNFALL OF GOSSACKS Ell IKORNILOFF REPORTED WOUNDED.

Lowering the price of dark flours 50 cents below that of white flour, as announced in the Pontland papers yesterday. Is not likely to effect Bend. Both white and graham retail here at $11.20, whereas In the city the dark flour is quoted ail 20 cents more than the light. The price here Is necessarily higher than in the city, due to the freight. The product which sells wholesale in Portland for $10.20, as quoted in The Oregonian, costs the dealer $10.36 by the time it reaches Bend. The local mill is not able to put out Its graham and whole wheat flour at a lower figure on account of the use of old-fashioned stone rollers, which, while they add to the quality of the product, make Its manufacture an extremely slow process and keep its price up. Announcements made in the Port land papers followed a conference held by Federal Food Commissioner W. B. Aver with a number of Willam ettte Valley millers. Mr. Ayer felt that inasmuch as the food adminis tration wishes the people to eat un sparingly of bread made from darker flours, in order that wheat and flour may be had for the army, ithese flours should be much cheaper.

WASHINGTON. D. C, Tec. 13. During the Senate military commit tee probe the members emphatically demanded that General Crozler, chief of the ordnance department, who was called as a witness, explain why America was compelled to buy the artillery used by General Pershing's troops from France. . The hearing disclosed that this country is making only half the number of rifles now that were manufactured for the al lies before the war. Machine guns which have not been tested under war conditions have been adopted for the army. Senator Hitchcock told Crozler that high officers allege a needless delay In arming troops has occurred. Cro zler declared in answering the point ed questions of Senator Chamberlain and others that he would reveal con fidential military information. Ia his statements he charged Secretary of War Baker with being responsible lor the machine gun delay. He said thait the dispute over machine gun types had prevented their manufac ture for over a year b.efore this coun try's entry Into the war, despite the appropriation which had been made for (them. America purchased Lewis guns and ammunition from England at the time of the Mexican crisis be cause Mexico had more machine guns than the United States. The Browning gun, adopted by the government in June, is not being manufactured yet and General Persh ing is relying on the French to sup ply this sort of armament for him. President Wilson has reappointed General Crozler chief ot the ordnance department of ithe army. POLICE FIND CURE FOR"SOLDIERPHOBIA (By United Press to The Bend Bulletin.) PENDLETON, Or., Dec. 13.
