Do not fail to complete your Lib erty bond payments Is the appeal of Secretary of the Treasury William (I. McAdoo, as sent to twelfth federal reserve district Liberty loan head quarters. Following la the secretary's ap peal: "Many employers t broughoul t he country have rendered most patri otic assistance in the distribution ol Liberty loan bonds to their em ployes and have assisted them in the purchase of these bonds by arrang ing 1 hat pay m en is may be made in install men Is covering a period of lime longer than that which could be granted by the treasury depart ment. "It Is the duty of the subscribers to bonds on these partial payment plans to complete the contract inio which they have entered, if they do not do so, both they and the gov ernment suffer, as the bonds for which they have contracted and for which I hey do not pay in full must usually be sold in the open market. "h is, of course, recognized thai in case of necessity caused by sick ness or other una voidable circum stances, cancel lal bins of subscrip tions or sales of bonds are warrant ed. In oases where employes have made arrangements to purchase these bonds on installment plans and then sever their connection with the employer with whom they have made subscriptions, arrangements should be made tor i be completion of I he subscription or for having the sub scription taken over by the new em ployer or by a bank iii the commun ity where the subscriber resides, thus avoiding the necessity for sale of the bonds covered by the sub script ion." 4 4 i S Roll of Honor ; The following northwest casualties nre reported in the lists for today, sect ions 1 and .'

NEW YORK TO START BUILDING AT ONCE (lty United Preaa to The Bond Bulletin.) NEW YORK, Nov. 81.- Construc tion of more than $200,000,000 wort h of dwellings is scheduled to begin here just as soon as men and materials, released from war work, are available, Most of the buildings will be large apart meut house.?, plans for which have been drawn and ground for which has been ready for many months. New York's over-population and under const r net ion was one of the problems that has grown rapid ly more acute since the nation aban doned itself almost entirely to war work. Rents have become so high that efforts were made several times United States Flag&hip Pennsylvania ; '"4 - I Photo by American Tress Association.

Thousands of men, re leased from war jobs, will be em ployed i'i building apartments, and much structural steel and other building materials already bought or contracted for by the government probably will be assimilated quickly in this dwelling constriction work. ITALY LOOKED AHEAD TO "AFTER THE WAR" (By United Presa to The Bend Bulletin.) ROME, Nov. 21. Italy has taken the initiative as perhaps no other allied country in resolving in ad vance so tar as Is possible the prob lems of the transition from mobilised to civilian life and the inevitable problems of "after the war.' A commission of 600 members has been working on the steps to ho. taken for months pas! anil is now holding day and night sessions. These 600 members are divided Into sections, each section having ex clusive charge of one of the big prob lems that demobilisation Will entail. One cent a word la all a little Waul Ad will coat you.

(By Mail.) The darkest place on earth Is Lon don at night. With tightening of the fuel re strictions it is going to be darker this winter than ever. Londoners are advised to wear something white and glistening at night so motor drivers will see them more easily. Pedestrians on the sidewalks col lide every live minutes or so on the homeward journey, and the women Of London are beginning to get hoarse in an endeavor to force a cough at regular periods by way of warning of their approach. Hut now it is suggested that they shall wear little silver belt pendants, so that each woman will carry her own alarm. VERY GOOD EXAMPLE, (By United Pn-sM to The Bend Bulletin) NAPLKS. Italy, Nov. 21. The Naples Street Railway company has accorded to all war cripples the right to ride free of charge on the street cars. The same privilege has been given to firemen who have been In jured in discharge of their duties. The only rest rid Ion is that not more than two mutilated soldiers and one fireman can ride on the same J car at the same time. COTOAQEOUS JAPS. (By United Press to The Bend Bulletin.)

"We are sure going to put Ed Brodie over for secretary of state in 1920." But to return to the legislature and its prospective activities. One great big feature which Is liahle to dissolve in the mistH of the early days of the session will be the report of the consolidation commis sion. Unless It is entirely revamped and worked over from Its original form as it appeared when hurtled forth by the versatile hand of Col. J. M Matthews, consolidation and elimination expert of the University of Illinois, it will have a short life and not a very merry one. The bulk of the legislators who have visited the capltol off and on since the consolidation commission's tentative report was made have thoroughly made up their minds that the report Is largely bunk and is des tined for the scrap heap. But it looms now, nevertheless, as the pos sible basis for a big fight. It must ho remembered that two years ago two doughty Clackamas county legis lators fought in the consolidation arena with short swords. They fought for consolidation and against each other most of the session. But what Walt Dimlck and George Brownell couldn't think of In the way of consolidation and elimination must be very trifling indeed, and it must be admitted they p rod u c e d some very worthy efforts at cutting down state expenses. The efforts didn't have any very tangible results save in one or two instances, bs con solidation has to run the gauntlet of as able a band ofi lobbying and job saving state officials as can be found anywhere In the union. The legislature finally decided that the question of consolidation was a swell one for passing the buck over, and tiic buck was passed on to the COmlmg session through the commit tee which has sizzled and fizzled through two stern years and will probably reap its reward in January by an early demise of ts pet child. One or two members of the commis sion claim that their rocommenda tlons will go through and be adopted. Perhaps they will. ' But we shall see what we shall see. The committee on law reform, also named by the last session, will rec ommend that the chief justice of the supreme court he given authority to place three circuit judges on the supreme bench temporarily at any time he sees fit to relieve the con gestion there. This might be fine it' it were not used occasionally as a political expedient to boost the fortunes and the publicity of some aspiring candidate for the high bench. This Is not very likely with the present chief justice, or with any of the other justices who are sitting there by virtue of the will of the people. But developments of the past year ludicate that the bench is not altogether free from the taint of politics, especially when it comes to the question of making appoint ments. Another power that the comniiffee on law reform will ask for the chief justice is the power to send circuit judges from one county to another when conditions warrant it. The object of this will he to relieve con gestion in Multnomah county when over it is deemed necessary and as judges frequently go there on re quest now for that very purpose, it is likely the legislature will look kindly upon such a law. In fact, probably both of these recommenda tions of the committee will be grant ed. If they are not it will probably mean a request for more justices on the bench, as the docket Is full to overflowing. Possibilities are developing that there may be n change or two at the state penitentiary before the first of the year. Whether it will hit as high up as the warden Is not known, hut this is considered a likely possibil ity. It is known that the governor for some lime has been under the impression that the general cost of conducting the state penitentiary has been too high. Considering the fact that there has been an enormous In crease jn current expense costs, the executive has been rather loathe to condemn the mounting costs there until a complete and thorough but quiet investigation could be made to determine whether the administra tion of affairs has been to blame for this increase. While he has made no definite statement, It is pretty closely understood that the .governor considers now that costs have been The United Warehouse Company WHOLESALE DISTRIBUTORS FOR CENTRAL OREGON OF OIL, GASOLENE, FLOUR, SALT, MEATS, HAM, $ACOh, LARD, Etc.

This being the case, it is not known whether the governor will make a complete change in the ad ministrative head, or whether he will give Warden Murphy a strong talk ing to and another chance at operat ing the business end of affairs out at the gray house. One thing is reasonably certain. If a change is to be made it will not develop until after the prison probe is over and done with. The governor is not going to fire the warden when the prison is under fire itself. lie doesn't do business that way. If he discbanges hira at all it will be after the findings are all in and the thing IB settled. Just now the Marion county grand jury is sitting In special session hearing the testimony that has been adduced by Attorney General Brown and his coterie oC district attorney investigators that he called in to assist him with the probe. The at torney general has been very close mouthed about what is contained in that testimony In fact, he has been as close mouthed as a man can be who invariably chews gum when he becomes excited, and his gum chew ing has been quite violent on occa sions. Regardless of this fact, para doxical as It may seem, he Is very close mouthed on the subject of what has developed behind closed doors in the prison investigation. Nothing very sallacious or nothing very sensational will develop, how ever, if .guessing can be done cor rectly, although it is possible that some facts as to the administration of the prison itself may be developed. Nothing particularly in a criminal light is expected, unless possibly something bearing on a flunky or two might develop. But to go back to Murphy. The ADDING MACHINE PAPER!

This sweep ing request, in itself, would include the warden, as well as all other of ficials and in a broad sense he is under fire with the rest of them. As said before, he won't he discharged while the investigation Is on be cause the executive would not dis charge him while he is under fire. Perhaps he won't be later, but that remains to be seen.
