Kl'KI. SITUATION ACUTE
THE COMING W1XTEK
Portland, Oregon, June IS. The
wood fuel in Oregon Is rapidly reach
ing a point which indicates that there
will be a shortage this winter, accord
ing to reports reaching Fuel Admin
istrator Holmes. How severe the
shortage will be is not known at
present. Anticipating It, however.
Holmes already is preparing for dis
tribution of coal in districts where
there is insufficient wood supplies.
Conditions are more acute in Port
land than at other points thus far.
These industries are converting their
plants to the use of wood and coal
due to the fact that the oil fuel sup
plies will soon be deeply cut on ac
count of the transfer of tank steam
ers to the Atlantic, among other
things. Announcement to this end is
already having its effect on demands
for other fuels, with the result that
dealers are having a hard time to
fulfill orders now on their books.

Now Is the Best Time
to Get Your Sedan
npHOSE who bought Chandler sedans last Fall, ,with the Winter in
A mind, find now that they have a most delightful Summer car. And
those who buy now, with the Summer in mind, will find in a few months
that they have a most comfortable Winter car.
For the handsome Fisher-built convertible sedan body which is
mounted on the Chandler chassis is quite as much a Summer car as it
is a Winter car. It is an open car when you want it open, and a closed
car when you want it closed. All the windows are instantly adjustable
and may be either entirely lowered away into the body panels or removed.
The car is roomy, splendidly upholstered and seats seven in perfect
comfort. The auxiliary seats face forward.
There can never be a better time of year than right now to get your
sedan.

! "CLASS 1 WEEK" WILL
BE HELD IN JULY
Portland. Ore., June 19. A "Class
j I Week" is to be held sometime tliih
I month by every local draft board in
i Oregon, under instructions received
from the War Department and com
municated to local boards by Captain
,I"!cii E Cullison, officer in charge of
the draft, in the office of the Adju
tant General.
I The purpose of "Class I Week" is
to correct any errors in classification
that may have been made previously.
In correcting these errors, many reg
istrants previously placed in lower
classification will be transferred to
Class I.
At the same time, the re-classlflca-tion
will work both ways. Where the
evidence justifies local boards will re-
, open the cases of men wrongfully
I placed in Class I and place them in
1 lower classification, as the clrcum-
stances warrant.
Government Appear Agents and
, members of legal advisory boards
I have been directed immediately to
, make a careful examination of all
i questionnaires and records in all
I cases in which they are satisfied that
re-classification should be made.
Thousands of registrants are now in
j Class IV, the War Department be
; lleves, who should be in Class II or I.
' Appeal agents are Instructed to ap-
peal every case where the re-classification
is not convincingly correct.
"Local Boards, Government appeal
: agents and members of legal advisory
I boards," Captain Cullison's instruc
tions advise, "are requested to direct
special attention to the following
classes of cases: Class 2, A and B;
Class 3, A, B and C; Class 4, A."
For the benefit of all these defini
tion are given: Class II-A: Married
man with children or father of moth
erless children where wife and child
ren are not mainly dependent on him
for support; II-B: Married man
without children whose wife Is ca-
