Oregon Guard First Among States Units First place for relative strength and efficiency in the entire ninth corps area, comprising all western and northwestern states, went to the Oregon national guard at the end of the federal fiscal year, June 30, according to the official tables issued by the war depart ment received Friday by the ninth corps area for 12 consecutive months. The state of Washington is in second place, Idaho a poor third and California a bad fourth. Not only does Oregon get first place in its own army area, but scores high national credit by tak ing second place in the en tin Uni ted States. At the beginning of the year Oregon was in ninth place and has advanced from that posi tion month by month, passing such states as New York and Pennsylvania. Conecticut stands in first pface by a narrow margin. Washington is the only other west ern state making a national show ing and its national guard ranks fourth in the United States. In addition to meeting all re quirements of the government for 1921, Oregon's citizen army now has sufficient enrolled strength to qualify for 1922 without further enrollment. However, It was stat ed by Adjutant General White that the increase of the force will be carried out as far as federal au thority will permit. The distribu tion of federal funds in Oregon during the present year In pay of men at armory drills and camps will total nearly $500,000. Old Resident P f.ases Away Charles C.

Russians Agree to Release Prisoners (Continued from page 1.) Nikolai Lenine, the Russian so viet premier. Relief to Start Washington, July 30. Ameri can relief for starving Russian children could begin forty eight hours after Americans imprisoned or detained in Russia were re leased and out of Russia, Secre tary Hoover said today. There could be no assurance that the Americans had been released, he added, until they were out of Russia-Mr. Hoover still was awaiting a detailed reply to his offer of aid, transmitted through Maxim Gorky and the state department had received no answer to Secre tary Hughes' recent demand that the prisoners be released. Hoover is Persistent With the Americans out of Rus sia, Mr. Hoover said, the Ameri can relief association would be willing to send a representative to Riga to take up with the Rus sian authorities details of food distribution. There are relief warehouses in Riga and Danzig and it would only be a question of transportation for the supplies to start rolling in the Russian fam ine areas. The relief organization has been at work continuously In Europe so that a sufficient personnel could be mobilized at Riga to handle the work on short niice, he said. Famine relief in Russia, Mr. Hoover said, would be handled directly by the American relief association, though the coopera ation of the Red. Cross and other organizations would be sought. Transportation is Needed The principal difficulty the re lief association would encounter, Mr. Hoover thought, would be the breakdown in the Russian trans portation system. Food distribu tion among the children and the sick would be limited to those areas to which transportation fa cilities were available, he said. Grain Returns Set New Record A check for $20,458 was depos ited with State Treasurer Hoff this morning by the grain inspec tion department of the public service commission. The amount represents collections for grain In spections during July and is said to be aproximately twice as large as the ordinary monthly deposit. Indicating the rapid and radical expansion experienced in the busi ness of this department. Increasing popularity of Port land as a grain shipping center has ben directly reflected In the business of the state's grain in spection department which, it is explained, anticipates an even greater increase in grain Inspec tions following the final determi nation of the Columbia basin grain rate case which la believed to have been settled through the action of the interstate commerce commisison In ordering the insti tution of the freight rate differ ential Friday.

Divorce Decree Denied Hawley (Continued from Page One.), over, because of plaintiff's failure to establish one particular charge against defendant the defendant was granted a divorce and the custody of the child and Marjorie Hawley, at the age of twenty-two, was, by decree of the trial court, divested of all interest In the prop erty of Willard Hawley turned out into the world penniless and de prived of the comfort of the Utyla child that she went oown into the 'valley of the shadow of death' to mother. Is that decree equitable? Remedy Not Given. "In their acts of criminations and recriminations, the parties hereto have overlooked the prin ciple that a divorce is a remedy for the innocent against the guil ty and not a relief for wrong against wrong. "It was the duty 01 the plaintiff to prove the averments of cruelty I alleged in her complaint, by clear and satisfactory evidence before she would, under any condition be entitled to a decree of divorce. After a careful study of the entire record we are convinced that the plaintiff utterly failed in her at tempt to prove that the defendant commited the offense alluded to in paragraph 20. (Criminal ancr un natural conduct.) "The defendant must establish the allegation in his cross-complaint by the same degree of proof required of the plaintiff. In oth er words, before he Is entitled to a divorce, he must establish to the satisfaction of the court by a c-ear preponderance of the evidence that the alleged charge of cruelty was false and made maliciously and without proper cause." Other Cases Decided. Chief Justice Burnett and Jus tices Bean and Johns concur In the opinion of Justice Brown. Plane Will Peddle Gospel Over Oregon; License Is Sought Its a long mep from the day of the old circuit rider carrying the gospel message about throughout the land with a faithful old horse aa his means of locomotion, to the modern day method of spreading the gospel by the air route. But it has been taken. Application was filed with the secretary of state's office here today by the Apostolic Faith Mission, 712 Schuyler street, Portland, for an alr- craft license. The appllca- tfon is filed by R. Robert Crawford and the plane is a Curtis JN-4-D, with a capac- uy 01 a passenger and pilot. YOUR Go Far Toward Setting Off Your Dress It will be a revelation to the stouter ladies of this vicinity to know that we have added to our already large stock of under garments the Mildred Stylish Stout Svelt line System Undergarments. They are reinforced where wear is greatest. Drawers have fitted yoke bands which eliminate fullness and make proper foundations for straight line fronts. The adjustable button bands fit prop erly without draw strings. Curved button backs fit neatly regardless of the position of wearer. Double ma terials between the legs reinforce the garments where wear is the greatest. These seams are reinforced by extra tape sewed twice. There are many other advantages and we would suggest that you inspect this new. line to see for yourself what modern science has produced. Mrs. Zane Grey Says Author was (Continued from Pfige One.) meet and a splendid conversation alist. She sat and chatted about the work of her husband since their marriage back in 1905, soon after hiB first novel was publish ed. Although she writes a little herself, she is only Interested in the wrtilng of her husband with whom she has worked throughout his career as an adviser and critic. "I think Mr. Grey is a born writer," she sajd. "Through his college work in the University of Pennsylvania he studied for the dentistry, and received nothing more than the background of a general education which would equip him for the writing profes sion. "He loves the west," she Con tinued, "and is guided more by his natural interest than by any arti ficial technique in constructing and finishing his stories." "Will he try to write outside of his present field?" It had been intimated that mny authors have a desire to try stories different from the usual type of their writ ings. "He may. Mr. Grey is deep ly interested in moral problems. But It is certain that he will not. turn to the social novel; it is too much apart from his nature. He is at present fishing on the Cata lina islands, and every year he gets out in the same way in the mountains or deserts, away from everybody." Has Been Here Before. Mrs. Grey was in the Willamette valley three or four years ago when Zane Grey gathered mater ial for his novel "Desert of Wheat," and later spent some time In the mountains of the state. "Oregon Is a lovely state," she said. The conversation had drifted to other authors and authors' hob bies, but the big touring car was already waiting at the curb and Loren was hopping up and down in the doorway impatiently, eager to get on the road. So Mrs. Grey had to go. When the car swung out from the curb Loren was smiling, hap py, with a little hand eagerly clutching the door of the car. Once more he was on his way to home in California and dady.
