CHARLES W. FULTON Many years ago the late Charles W. Fulton, or, Charlies, as he was usually called, lived in Astoria and had a summer cottage at Seaside, to gether with many of bis friends. On one occasion, when they were opened for the season It was discovered that a number of them had been robbed. A caretaker, named Charles Wtl lard, a blustering Texan, was under suspicion and had a reputation as a dead renter shot, to maintain which he amused himself by shooting corks thrown Into the surf. When Fulton learned that his house had been looted he went to Seaside with Sheriff Jack Williams and Deputy Lambert and at Seaside they were Joined by a constable. To gether they visited Wl Hard's cabin and when they knocked, Wlllard threw open a window, rifle in hand, but allowed them to enter. Fulton Identified certain articles, when the visitors told Wlllard to come with them to Fulton's cottage for further Investigation, which he did, carrying hlg rifle. Fulton and the constable entered the cottage when shots called them outside. Williams lay dead and Lambert, fatally wounded, held the men he had been told to guard, in his weakening grasp, Wil , lard freeing himself, shot the con stable In the hip. Fulton then club bed Wlllard into insensibility, as he supposed, and started for help, when he saw Wlllard propped on his elbows taking & bead on him with his rifle. Fulton drew his re volver and fired. By prompt action and accurate shooting, he saved his life and killed the robber.

Secretary Houston of the department of agri culture, in a communication to the American Association of State High way Officials, has set forth squarely the policy which he thinks should be followed In highway construction during the war. Secretary Houston say: "So far as it Is practicable to do so, this department will urge the maintenance of the highway already constructed; the construction and completion of those highways which are vitally important because of their bearing upon the war situa tion or for the movement of oom- ) Eighteen thousand babies will he born to Belgian and French moth er who are too poor, because of the war, to give them the reception they should have. The fathers of these new babies eitht-r are dead or fight ing. The Spokane chapter of the Red Cross has undertaken to furnish 500 complete baby ; outfits for these youngster within the next three week." This will be done entirely aside (from the war work, which forges ahead from morning to night at .the Paulsen building, and which must never "be 'halted even for babies!

The department I preparing to lugxeat to the state highway departments, the preparation of a schedule of work for the federal aid project for 191S in lln with this policy." In carrying out th policy ' thus announced there ha been sent out by the office of public roads, of the department of agriculture, schedule forma on which th states sre ' re quested to set forth their proposed federal aid work for the 1(18 work ing season. These schedules call for a description of each road, the char acter, quantity snd rail haul of the materials to he used, the probable cost, the amount of federal funds de sired, the specific purpose of the Im provement, Its bearing upon the war situation, and what effect a delay of the work until 1919 or luter would have. With the Information thu assembled and classified, an efficient road construction program Is assur ed. While it I Impossible to make any definite statement regarding the transportation of road materials, the expectations are that the transpor tation situation will be Improved and that the shipment of such materials for essential projects can be made. Road construction and mainten ance in the I'nlted States involve an annual expenditure of some $3.. 000,000, and there is scarcely a sec tion of the country that Is not ser iously affected by a marked distur bance In road work. 21 NCLUDED IN DRAFT Washington, Jan. 29.
