SAY PEACE IS NOT HARD TO ARRANGE (Continued from Page 1.) war aims thus: An agreement can easily .be reached on the frst four but there will be some difficulty with the lfth. The sixth concerns Russia only. The Teutons will settle the eeventh only In peace negotiations. The eighth is only discussible by France and Germany, however, the latter -cannot talk of the cesssion of Alsace-Lorraine. Germany is solid ly with Austria on the ninth and tenth. When all other questions have been settled, Germany will be ready to discuss the formation of a league for preserving international peace. Concluding his speech, Hertling said, "A durable and general peace is Impossible to bring about bo long as the lasting Integrity of the German empire and the security of its vital interests are not assured." "There are no differences .between us and Wilson regarding the freedom of the seas and It Is most Important for the future freedom of navigation that England be forced to relinquish the strongly fortified points on the important sailings routes, such as Gibraltar, Malta, Aden, Hongkong and the Falkland Islands." MOBS WANT PEACE. AMSTERDAM, Jan. 25. Severe rioting In Berlin Wednesday and yes terday has been reported. Mobs are marching in the streets demanding peace. Tho fact that yesterday's pa pers from Berlin have not yot arrived is considered significant. TKITONH WAXT DISCI SSION. WASHINGTON, D. C, Jim. 25 The Teutons aro aivKlliiB for further discussion of terms with tho rutted States and the allies, but aro not yot ready to go fur enough to bring about peace, is tho way experts here regard Hertling's and dentin's statements. AISTKI.Y WITH AMERICA. COPENHAGEN, Jim. 25. "Aus tria and the United States practically agree not only on the great principles of a new arrangement after the war, but our views approach on several concrete questions," declared For eign Minister Cxernln in a speech made at Vienna today. "President Wilson's address was a frank and open bid tor the discussion of differences with view toward a settlement," he went on. "An ex change of views between us might form the start of nogtiations between all belligerents. Our differences are not sufficient to prevont our clearing matters up."

Need Kor More Workers. Mrs. It. W. llendorshott, super visor of tho surgtcul work, says there is a great need for mom workers and she would Ilka the women jroueruUy to realtxo tho Importance of this work and that It must bo done by somebody somewhere. A comparatively small number now bear tho burden of It. There is a real responsibility to be carrlod she said. It Is not merely a convenient pastime, and It more would enter heartily Into the work and share responsibility for Its suc cess the results would be correspond ingly greater and the load less upon a few. Bond has excellent working qunr tors, roomy enough to accommodate many more, than have yet tukon an active interest in the matter. An ap peal is mndo to women who will take up and continue the service as a ser ious duty to be regularly performed. Report Is lilviii.

Roberts and Mrs. F. O. Miner .will give anyone Interested instruc tions in the making of service articles such as socks, mufflers, sweaters, wristlets and others.

TO SHIP THE FIRST BOX THIS WEEK (Continued from Page 1.) untied by the nurse. There are near ly 20 different styles of pads, wrap pings and sponges made from gauze and these are kept separate from each other. All of the folding and' cutting is done under the most sanitary condi tions, the chairs, tables, rulers and hands of the women being washed with Lysol -before work Is begun. All wear white aprons and caps. Not an article will leave the Bend office that the women are not absolutely sure Is as sanitary as disinfectants and cleanly surroundings can make it. Much Variety In Work. Following Is a brief summary of tho first 'box and the contributions from the branches: Bisters has Bent 180 gauze compresses, 4 by 14 Inch es, 80 gauze compresses, 9 by 9 Inch es, 40 folded gauze strips, two stacks gauze squares, 120 gauze sponges, 46 four-tailed muslin bandages, five T hnndages, 16 abdominal bandages. The Terrebonne women made 140 four-Inch gauze compresses and those accepting the district plan for the project, and that, on the other hand, the advancement of the board's moral -support to the district organization could do no harm. Mr. Cupper's statement to the at torney general is as follows: "Under dote of January 7, 1918, Claude McColloch, attorney for the Central Oregon Irrigation District, advised the Desert Land Board that the Central Oregon Irrigation District had been formed, Including all sold landB in the Central Oregon Irriga tion Company's project and request ed the board to approve the organiza tion of this district In lieu of the or ganization provided for In tho con tract of June 17, 1907. KlnhtH Are Outlined. "Section 33 of Chapter 357, Laws of 1917, being the Irrigation District Code, provides, " 'An Irrigation district may ac quire, assume or exercise any rights, powers or obligations of a contractor with the State under the Carey Act and may be organized in lieu of a water users' association required either by statute or contract. "Taking into account that there was no obligation on the part of the settlers under the June 17, 1907 con traot to perfect an organization a Indicated therein, it seems clear that it was entirely within the province of the legislature to provide that such settlers could organize under the Ir rigation district plan. Even had this provision not been included in the irrigation district code, the settlers could doubtless have organized under the irrigation district plan. How ever, In that event the Desert "Land Board would not have been required to approve the district organization In lieu of the water users' associa tion. The statute having given the settlers the right to organize under the Irrigation district plan In lieu of the water users' association required either by statute or contract, it Is not -within the province of the Desert .Land Board to object to such an or ganization. "No obligation ot the 1907 con tract will be Impaired by the substi tution of an Irrigation district for the water users' association provided therein for the roason that It wan entirely optional with' the settlers whether or not thoy organized, but if they did organize, such organiza tion should be subject to the approv al of the Desert Land Board and the rights of the parties thereunder were fixed and determined by tho charac ter of the organization. The substi tution of an Irrigation district for the water users association Is ludoptuid-1 out of tho contract and all powers wh U'h might have been exercised by the water users' association may be exercised by tho district, hut the rights of the company and tho set tlers are not fixed us .In" the cuso of tho water users' association, The settlers have a r!sht to oiKniiUo nil Irrigation district In lieu of a water users' association, lint they must then proceed to nil id justmeiit by agree ment or through luxation of the respective rights of the district anil the company. The stututu having spe cifically conferred upon the settlors on a project of this character the right to organise under the Irriga tion district law. It would seem 'that the approval or tho disapproval of tho Desert Lund Board to such an orgniil tutlon would have little or no effect, however, In order to eliminate any question 'from ai-lnlng In this con nection, and to give tho mi oral sup port ot tho board to tho Irrigation district. If tho board desires to do this, it would seem well to enter an order approving tho organization of the Irrigation district In lieu of tho water users' association. Patent I Only Check. "The approval of tho Irrigation dis trict would seem to carry with It the approval by tho board ot any legul act of the district, Including! the ac quiring or adjustment of the rights of tho Central Oregon Irrigation Co., either by agreement or condemna tion. In fact, the only check of the hoard on such an organization will be In connection with the acquisition of patent to certain ot these lands from tho federnl government and the deed ing of the samo to tho settlers. This would doubtless give the board full authority to limit sales and exercise supervision over tho project Incident to tho patenting mid deeding of these lands. "It w.111 probably boa difficult mat ter for the Irrigation district to ar- rivo at a satisfactory settlement of all questions involved, but In tho tlnal analysis It would seem that under the powers conferred on an Irriga tion district under Soction 31, Chap ter 357, Laws of 1917, the entire I A WAR MESSAGE pajijpaa-yafaa J p!BalUIgfflaHHBnfcluJ To the Retail Grocery Trade of the United States Onlv bv the t iplnto coordination and maximum effort of every 'fiiiidaineiilal factor In our national lire fun tho war won.
