COPENHAGEN. April 19. Five
policemen were killed and 40 wound

wounded In a clash before the par
liament building in Vienna Thursday,
according to .a dispatch from that
city.
Wounded soldiers and unemployed
workmen attempted to interview
cabinet members, who refused to see
them. The delegation bugan firing

who opposed them wcro swept aaide.

Commenting on the action of the
Ilend .Commercial club In Its opposi
tion to the Strahorn railroad, at tho
request of the local sawmills, the
Orcgonlan "of yesterday, ran the fol
lowing, undr the caption. "Opposi
tion to the Railroads," as its leading
editorial:
"If every town In Oregon which
haa a railroad were to oppose ex
tension of that railroad' lest other
towns sh""ld come Into competition
with Its Industries, we might as well
record the end of railroad building
and therefore of development In the
interior of the state. Yet that is the
position taken by Bend In regard to
extension of the Strahorn road from
the Klamath valley to Bend.
"Bend appears to look at the mat-
tor solely from tho viewpoint of its
sawmills. The latter have a railroad
rate on lumber to Denver and similar
polnta which is 6 cents less than the
terminal rates to the Pacific coast
and only 1 cent more than the rate
from Spokane, Baker and other
points in the white pine group sev
eral hundred miles nearer the mar
ket. Klamath Falls pays the coast
terminal rate, and la therefore under
a handicap of 6 cents as against
Bend. If the Deschutes road should
bo connocted with the Strahorn road
and if the latter should be built from
Bend to Klamath Falls, the latter
town might claim the same rate as
Bend enjoys. The possibility that
the Bend rate would bo revised up
ward to meet the Klamath rate seems
to have been the motive tor the Bend

U. S. TREASURY
TO BE NEUTRAL
Commercial club's vote against aid
to the Strahorn road, for the only
speaker was the manager of one of
the mills.
No consideration appears to have
been given to the other ways in which
Bend would profit by construction
of the Strahorn roads nor to the great
benefit which would accrue to the
great railroadless area ot Central
Oregon. The Strahorn road is pro
ected not alone to connect Bend with
Klamath Falls. Another line is to
run to Lakeview and a third to
Crane, where it would connect with
the O.-W. R. & N. line eastward
through Vale to the Union Pacific
system, opening the great Harney
valley.- A wide agricultural and
stock-raising country would be
opened, and the Bend mills would
have a more direct line, thus fortify
ing their rate position, which la none
too strong.
"In saying that 'under the present
railroad administration rates never
go down, and the Bend mills might
suffer from an upward revision,' Mr.
Keyes not only overlooked the very
temporary character of the present
railroad administration but the prob
ability that federal railroad laws and
the entire rate system will Boon
undergo radical revision. When that
change Is made and when a general
rate revision Is effected, a town which
felt the rate position ot ita chief
industries to be so weak that It found
opposition to construction of a new
road through a wide stretch ot coun
try necessary to fortify Itself would
be an Inviting object ot attack.
"The interests of Bend are not
wrapped up with those of Its saw
mills alone. They are identical with
the Interests ot all j)t Central Ore
gon, which can best be served by
through railroads, north, south, east
and west. Theso railroads will
make Central Oregon develop nnd
prosper, and as it prospers, so will
Bend. Bend will not fully prosper
as a big sawmill town in an irrigated
oasis In the midst of a desert. Hence
to condemn Central Oregon to stag
nation In tho interests of local in
dustries Is not only narrow and
selfish but Is shortsighted, for It Is
to condemn Bend to restricted
growth.
"These are days of progress, not
of stagnation. They are days of
broad vision, not ot parochial selfish
ness. Bend should become imbued
with the spirit ot the times. It Is up
to Bend to reconsider." ,

TOKIO, April 19. Declaring that
Japan should secedo from tho league
of nations and that tho principles of
humanity underlying the league or
ganlzntlon are falsehoods, the Japan

has attacked Groat Britain and de
mundud tho Monroe doctrlno for tho

by tho publication of newn from
Parts, that the league of nations has

What the coming of peace meant
to the American people and what
the sale ot bonds meant to the boys
who fought and suffered overseas.
was graphically told and shown by
American veterans who spoke last
night at tho "Victory Sing," at tho
Bend Amateur Athletic club. A large
proportion of the men and women
present had already subscribed for
Victory bonds, but in spite of this
$700 was added to Bend's list at the

close of the evening, when applica-
who was Btationed at a table near
the door.
Mrs. Roscoe Howard was in charge
of tho musical program, while Lien- .
tenant Frank R. Prince. A. E. F..
introduced the speakers. "There are
Just two outstanding facts in the
fifth and last .Liberty loan," he said.
One la that Oregon will lead the
nation and the other is that Des
chutes county will lead Oregon." He
presented Sergeant E. E. Hayes ot
Bend, recently ot the old Third Ore
gon, Who demonstrated the bayonet
attack. Sergeant A. M. Fisher ot
Company L unwillingly taking the
part ot the German during the ex
hibition. Showa Gas Mask Use.
With his gas mask carried at the .
"alert" and wearing the steel helmet ;
of the American soldier, Sergeant
Fisher started to tell of the second
battle ot the Maine, in which he
took part, when suddenly a whistle
sounded, from behind him. Instantly
he knocked oft his "tin hat," pulled
forth his mask and donned it in re
cord time. Then it was that Ser
geant E. C. Frost, of the Old Third :
Oregon, who had Bounded the gas
alarm stepped forward and explained
to the audience that this was Just .
the wey it would happen in the .
trenches, and that 8ergeant Fisher
had actually worn his mask for 12
hours without intermission, at the
Maine.
"We got the Hun on the run at
the Marne, but we out distanced oar
own artillery," Sergeant Fisher said
after taking off his mask, "that waa
how It happened we wero, subjected
to a gas attack which lusted oft and
on for two days. The gas is the worst
thing in war. Some ot it is in the
form of fine powder, scattered when .
shell breaks by a high explosive
and some of it is compressed into a
liquid which turns into a vapor when
It is released. Some of it makes you
blind, one kind burns like liquid fire,
but most kinds kill."
Plea For Loan Given.
Sergeant Frost, the last speaker
of the evening delivered an impas
sioned appeal for liberal support for
the Victory loan. "How would you
like to live In mud and filth for
months, to know that when you took
a bath the cooties were enjoying It
as much as yod were?" he asked.
How would you like to go through a
gas attack and wear one ot bhose
gas masks for hours at a stretch T
You people don't know what sacri
fice means. You aren't giving any
thing away when you subscribe tor
Liberty bonds. You may be giving '
up a few things that you can get
nlong without, but your money is
drawing interest, and you'll get the
faco value of the bond back In four
years.
"How about the boy who has given
an arm, a leg, an eye, even his lifef
That Is real sacrifice. It can't be
paid back, but our government Is
trying to make these men, crippled
though they are, able to earn a better
living than thoy ever did before.
That's what some of your money Is
going for, and more Is going to bring
back tho Yanks who are still over
seas. It's up to us to show that wo
appreciate what has been done by
the boys who fought and died in
France and Flandors. It's up to us
to show that we don't need tho beat
of war excitement to flout thfs loan.
