prices throughout the nation and
tho curtailing of tho liquor produc
tion to increase the supply of grain
available for food and to release men
for other employment, wore other
plans discussed for advancing the
war efficiency of tho United States.
It is virtually decided that a wooden
fleet of 3000 ships, of 3000 tons
each, Mill be built to trj&vey food
and munitions to tho Allies. In
terned Austrian and German ships
seised by the government may be
come a part of the American merch
ant marine. President Wilson In a
proclamation, announced the creating
of "defensive areas" along the coast, j
ships are forbidden to ponetrato these
ureas, excepting at certain times, and
after Identification.
Ouncrfition Demanded.
The President demanded' yester
day the paasago of the selective con
scription bill, and the War Depart
ment is making plans based on theory
that the measure will be endorsed
liy Congress.
Tho thoroughness with which the
war spirit has permeated tho country
was tfhowii by tho declaration of ox
Secretary of Stato William Jonnlngs
Bryan, radical pacifist, that he was
ready to serve in any capacity In
pushing tho war to a quick, success
ful end. t
Tho'ctdsc 'connection which exists
between the United States and the
Kntejate powers. Is demonstrated In
tho anridliircement that commission
's sr from France and England will
tonfer with .American government
representative. Early in the week
it was announced that the Kuropen'i
MpIomaU hol arrived, and later that
their whereabouts were unknown,
negotiations of the kind, or prepara
tions for siieh negotiations, are en
tirely shrouded in the deepest se
crecy. Separate Peace Sought.
Rumors have been persistent that
Austria. Hulgarla and Turkey are
seeking a .separate peace, while Ger
many is knpwn to be Intriguing In
Kussla with the Intention of elim
inating the Slavic power from the
ranks of h6r enemies. A second
statement of peace terms from Ger-
mlttcd to vote, was announced tor the
selection of n constituent assembly.
Of especial Interest on the Pa
cific coast. Is the rejection by the
Oregon State Land board, of the bids
on $260,000 worth of rural credit
bonds, and the mounting of May
wheat In the Portland market -to
$2.24 a bushel, easily n new record.
Word from San Francisco yester
day was to the effect that warrants
are out for the arrest of Frank C.
Oxman, millionaire stockman of east
ern Oregon, on a charge of attempt
ing to influence the testimony or
witnesses In the Thomas Mooney
bomb case. j
