WASHINGTON', April 20. Ap-
pointment of William S, Culberlson, 1
vice-chairman of the tariff rommis- i
sion as minister to Routnnnia. for- 1
mcrly announced at the White House j
yesterday, fills a diplomatic assign
ment involving particular responsi- j
bilities at this time in view of the re- j
lief debt and other negotiations now j
pending with that country. J
It is assumed iu this situation, that 1
the Bucharest post will not be va- j
catcd by Minister Jay, to take up his) j
new post as ambassador to Argentina ;
until the arrival of his successor and
the state department has not yet been ;
informed of definite plans for Mr.
Culhertson's departure. In fact, it is
expected that Mr. Jay will remain at
the It ou mania capital until he has re
ceived some definite reply to the
Washington government's not urging
a refunding agreement for Kouron
nin's relief debt to the United States.
When these negotiations and others
regarding the new Roumanian mining
law as it affects American oil prop
erties have progressed to a satisfac
tory point. Mr. Jay probably will turn
over to Mr. Culberlson the duty of
completing them.
Land Settlement
Program Backed
Oregon Responds to
Plea of Veterans
PORTLAND, April 20. (Special)
Major communities of Oregon are
thoroughly sold on the value of the
present state wide settlement pro
gram, according to letters received by
the land settlement department of the
Portland chamber of commerce fol
lowing publication of the annual re
port of the department last week, in
which it was mentioned that more
than 700 families, bringing with them
an aggregute capital in excess of
S2.0OO.OOO, had been brought here
during the past year.
"Personally," writes Lloyd L.
Crocker, president of the Koseburg
chamber of commerce. "I think the
work done by your department was
more directly responsible for the
large number of settlers we received
in Douglas county than auy other
ageucy. We received more real fann
ers, that had some money, then we
have before in ten years, I think I
am safe in saying."
- Other letters. of n like tenor have
been received from chambers of com
merce officials in practically all ma
jor districts of western and eastern
Oregon, according to W. (J. Ide, man
ager of the department.

Eugene is quickly passing out of the village state. Our city, is going
ahead by leaps and bounds. The days of the unprogressive merchant
are going out of existence. The Model has always been a leader for
advancement. To keep abreast with the times a change is necessary.
Thousands of people are. coming into Eugene from bigger cities where
competition has compelled merchants to carry good shoes at a cheap
price. This the Model has always striven to do. But we are going
to advance one step further. We have completed arrangements for re
modeling our store and inaugurating "THE MODEL'S ECONOMY
SECTION." In this section thousands of dollars worth of fine shoes
will be carried at ridiculously low prices. The newcomer to Eugene
and our old customers are to get shoes as cheap if not cheaper than in
the bigger cities. To make room for this new section our present tre
mendous stock must be reduced. Hence a sale was ordered. We are
going to the extreme limit to make this not only Eugene's, but Ore
gon's greatest shoo sale. Our entire stock goes on the market for
sensational selling. Prices will do the work. The country's finest
and exclusive brands Florsheims, W. L. Douglas, Peters, Weichbren
ner and a host of other makes for men go at prices that will stagger.
Utz & Dunn, Peters, Sweet & Lunn and scores of other national
brands for women go at give-away prices. .
Folks, this is going to be a real sale. Thousands of dollars worth of
shoes to make room for others mu3t bo sold and sell they will, for
the prices quoted here are an urge to everyone to buy their shoes
now and here.
