No report re gardlng tha capture by the bolshevik forces of a group of American rail Way engineers and a party of Ameri can Red Cross workers at Klachln akaya, Siberia, reported In press dis patches from Chita, Siberia, had been . received today by the state or war departments or at national headquar ters of the Red Cross. At a special session, of the Board of Directors of Saieji schools, Tues day night, action will be taken in ac cordance with warnings and advices issued by the Oregon state board of health, concerning the smallpox epi demic, in a letter addressed to the clerks of all school boards in the state. At that time the school board will probably auhorize such action as is deemed advisable under the cir cumstances. Up to the present time 14 cases of small pox have been reported in and near Salem. These cases are either in ' private quarantine or are under coun ty surveillance at the Isolation ward, ! near Salem. Health officials repre senting city and county have exercis ed the utmost vigilance in efforts to take prompt aclon toward all report ed cases. Dr. R. E. Pomeroy, city health of ficer for Salem anticipates the hearty co-operation of the public in dealing with the sitautlon.Cara to comply with state and city statutes, and prompt reporting of derelectioni to he pro per auhorlties, will aid in preventing the epidemic from becoming general. While the present conditions in Salem merit the utmost care, there Is no cause for undue alarm," stated Dr. Pomeroy, Monday afternoon. The following extracts from the state laws give the scope of action to be followed by school officials and health officers: Chapter 2(4, General Laws of Ore gon for 1919: "Any board of school directors may, on account of the pre valence of any communicable disease, prohibit the attendance of any teach er or pupil upon any school under their control, and shall' also have the power to decide how far revacclna tlon shall be required if a case or cases of smallpox have occurred in the city or district" State Board of Health regulations. Section 25: "If small pox exists in a community, the county or city boards of health shall provide free vaccina tion for persons desiring protection against infection. When smallpox ex ists in a community, no child shall be permitted to attend school without presenting satisfactory evidence of his having been successfully vaccinated within seven years." BOLSHEVISM HAS NO PLACE IN TURKEY, MILITARIST CLAIMS Constantinople, Jan. 1. Bolshevism has no appeal to the Turks,' being con trary ' to their religious training and patriotic sentiment, 'says . Hustapha Kemal Pasha, political an leader mili tary leader of the Turkish nationalist movement in Asia Minor. Recently there hare been reports that the bol shevik! have made inroads in Turkish Asia Minor and that Knver Pasha, min liter of war here in 1914, has spon sored a bolshevik uprising in Turke stan. ; Mustapha Kemal denied his adher ents in thtn nationalist cause were leagued with Enver Pasha or with Ta lott Pasha, former graqd vizier, who is reported to have been converted to boUhovism. Bolshevism might result, however, from a peace which makes the Turk a subject people, he assert ed but he added that such an al'.iauce with the soviet power would bo but temporary Bloodshed would follow a peace set tlotment which placed Greeks in on trol of this city, he said, and the iiSn of Thrace to Greece would have the iame result. George M. Sunday, in charge of the place owned by bis father, the Rev. Billy Sunday, has 300 White Leghorn pullets He says he will clear 9720 from his chickens in the three months ending January SI.

Part of the deficiency in rainfall recorded since September 1 was wiped out yesterday and last night The soft breezes of a chlnook wind warmed the atmosphere and the raindrops began to patter steadily, playing a tatto that was con tinuous.

Niemeyer, who Sias offices in the Masonic building, and his haste in re porting the matter to police, pedes trians who were endangered by elec trocution Sunday. were probably Bav-ed. The Reld-Troy sign that has hung over State street between the Mason ic and Oregon buildings, burdened by the rains, broke and fell across the trolley wire. This wet rope formed a conductor for the electricity, and had It fallen to the sidewalk it probably would have struck some one walking beneath. It was discovered by Mr. Nie meyer, who called police headquar ters. The street railway company was notified and the menace was hastily removed.
