Paulus, manager of the Kalfftn Fruit Union and president of I Auto Embrace Placed Under Ban In Tacoma Tacoma, Wash., Nov. 28. (TTnltea Press.) The "auto embrace" Is under the ban In Tacoma, and young men who desire to spoon with their sweet hearts are warned to do their hug ging outside automobiles, especially if they happen to be drivers ol macnines. Edwin Valentine appeared oeiore judge. "Well, I was driving only about 13 miles an hour with one arm," said Valentine. "And what about the other arm?" That was around a young lady," hesitatingly admitted the autolst. "That is reckless, all right, and a violation of the law," the court de clared. "I will admit it Is a pleasant form of law violation, but we will have to fine you 10." From the manner with which Valen tine paid the fine his offense was well worth the price. th Commercial club, who last night police Judge Hackett on a cnarge 01 was named to succeed himself as presl-, reckless driving, and pleaded S"my cent ot tne ciuo, eaiu wu "v wouldn't shirk the Job if they give It to me." Paulus, during the past year, has been busily engaged with work of the fruit union and was unable to devote much time to the Commercial club. But, he said today, that if such devo tion to the work of the club was satis factory he would do it again, and said that he believed he would have more time the coming year. Election December 10.

According to plans submitted with the application the company proposes to appropriate the water in two falls. One of the plants would be operated with water taken from the canal of the Tumalo irrigation district and the other from a canal to be constructed lower down the stream. Inasmuch us the plan involves the appropriation of water already appropriated for ir rigation purposes the company pro noses the construction of another ir rigation canal lower down the river from which to supply land that would be deprived of water by reason of the connection of the power piani wim the Tumalo Irrigation canal. A ron- tract embodying this phase of the pro ject was presented to the state lanu board by the company some tima ago and is still pending. Action by the state engineer's office upon the power application depends upon tne approv al of the contract by the state land board. The teachers' situation as It relates to national welfare was most forcefully pointed out by Dr. William F. Foster, president of Reed college In an address recently made befove th Washington Educational assocatlon. Dr. Foster eaid: "Tho lack of a living wage for school teachers is a national crisis. No other large class of workers in the country, except ministers, have become such victims of the war. Other workers too!: adan'a!?e of wartime conditions to double their wnjes or the luce of the products, while the teachers who were not called by the government for other work, stood by their Jobs loyally and uncomplainingly. "The did not strike or loaf on tna day evening December 10, nominations job; they did not iic.-.et the schoo' l'UU'lings or burn thera town, tney re frained from shooting their superin tendents and school bottfds. During all this time there was scarcely a branch of the government which did not call on the schools for specific war work. They responded whole heartedly, effectively, and as a reward, teachers had their wages reduced about 60 per cent that is to say, in purchasing power. "Not a single shipyard, street rail way, bank, mine, hospital, laundry, theatre, that could have continued to do business during the war without vaBt Increase in wages. Yot there is scarcely a school system In America that pays its teachers, in purchasing power, three-fourths ns much as it paid them tlve years ago. There are hundreds of collete faculties who are PLACING OF HIGHWAY SIGNS IS CONSIDERED , At one o'clock this afternoon the representatives of the road sign dis tricts, named by the Marlon County Community Federation to formulate plans for the erection of road signs in all parts of the county, convened for an all afternoon session at the Commercial club.

The Episcopal church in Oregon intends to get vigor ously behind the American Legion in every possible way. ' Bishop Sumner has written to all clergy in Oregon urging them to take immediate steps to support the Amer ican Legion in every possible way, and where there is no post of the America Legion to call the service men togeth er and aid them in organizing one. 'At this critical time of unrest and possible revolution full membership In the American Legion is all important, said P.ishop Sumner. "The American Legion is one of the most practical ways of Americanization ot the foreign born. "In my Judgment the American Le gion stands as one of the most potent forces in the country in the direction of order and loyalty. I trust the clergy of our church will give special atten tion to the ideals for which the Amer ican Legion stands, as named in the preamble of its constitution. As part ot the work of, its nation-wide cam paign the Episcopal church plans a gi gantic Americanization plan, and in the process of this plan it intends to work hand in hand with the American Legion."
