r k. (Most) Palmateer, Salem, de
partment commander of the La
ion, at a meeting in roe veterans
Memorial hall.
The measure, known aa the uni
versal service act, apparently has a
good chance for passage at the
present session of congress. Com
mander Palmateer said, 'despite
strong opposition of radical groups,
some peace organizations, and some
capitalists.
The act. Palmateer explained in
brief, would render capital, labor
and resources of the United states
aa well a fighting forces subject
to conscription In time of war.
Should the bill become a law, the
department commander aald. It
would. In the opinion of war de
partment officials, constitute the
equivalent of a standing army of
1,000.000 men. It provides not only
for universal conscription, but alto
for federal regulation of prices and
wages, he aald, to prevent profiteer
ing In time of national emergency.
"We are not opposing profit, Pal
mateer said, "but we are opposed to
such excessive profits as were made
In this country during the World
war, when more men were made
millionaires than lost their lives In
action."'

a swimming tank oy the citisens of
this community.
Msny memories cling around this
old boat since it went into the ser
vice several years ago. The miles It
has traveled are Incalculable; lives
have been lost in its traveling back
and forth and perils have been
avoided by quick action of Its op
erators, either from broken down
machinery or floating debris.
wtien It went Into service It wss
considered the last word in ferry
construction, so different that
those of a nearly day, which pio
neers remember and tell the story
of propelling it across the river
with oars, or with mule or horse
power. Now It lays a plUful wreck
upon the shores of the Willamette
river, having given place to a more
up-to-aate power driven craft.
During the rush season of the
year as many as 90 cars may be
carried at a trip, and with consid
erable saving of time, with the new
service, while under the old service
often a half mile of cars would be
waiting on either side of the river
for transportation. '
The new ferry has been named
Claggett TT and is operated on
two eight hour shifts a day, by the
Lawrence brothers, who have seen
service on the river here for about
15 years. They have known msny
thrills and perils of the old river
and the old craft.
