To the previous courses for Aides;
Reed College admitted two hundred

General of the Army has notified the
College that he wishes to consider
all its graduates for immediate ap.
pointment, and that he probably will
need five thousand more Aides. This
is five times the estimate of las
summer.
Aides in Physio-therapy are em
ployed by the War Department to
assist returned soldiers to recover
the use of their functions. Aides are
sent by the Surgeon General to hos
pitals in the United States or abroad.
They are not required to go to
France. After appointment. Aides

States and sixty dollars a month

Candidates must be between the ages
of twenty-one and forty years.
Married women are eligible for ap

Aides." Their status is tho same as

More Conservation
On September 3rd the Priorities Commis-
sioner of the War Industries Board, issued Circular
No. 21. Among other things this document, saving
certain exceptions, absolutely prohibited, all NEW
construction, except such as might be allowed
under definite regulations touching the Issuance of
permits.
With the purpose of learning whether a modi
fication of the order would be consistant with the
Gc'crnnif nt's needs a committee representing state
and regional organizations of retail lumber dealers,
comprehending a membership of approximately
ninety-five hundred, came to Washington to confer
with the Priorities Commissioner, Judge Edwin B.
Parker.
The situation was canvassed In a broad spirit.
The retailers' committee urged that as the order
stood it might result In unnecessary curtailment
of farm improvements and thereby in a measure
indirectly handicap the all important subject of
food conservation.
While recognizing the force of this suggestion,
the Government officials, however, reasoned that
the supreme need of the hour was LABOR FOR
ESSENTIAL AND DIRECT WAR WORK. To
permit building operations, even on the farm, to
go forward unchecked would Inevitably weaken the
nation's war labor need and this at a time when
the Government was seeking to put in play every
ounce of our power, both in men and resource, to
crush the enemy of all humanity.
Finally, after the earnest representations of
the committee it was agreed that Rule 2 of
Circular No. 21 be changed to read:
"REPAIRS OF OR EXTENSIONS TO EXIST
ING BUILDINGS INVOLVING IN THE AGGRE
GATE A COST NOT EXCEEDING TWENTY FIVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS (12500.00), AND NEW
CONSTRUCTION FOR FARM PURPOSES ONLY
INVOLVING IN THE AGGREGATE A COST NOT
EXCEEDING ONE THOUSAND ($1000.00) DOL
LARS.T The committee gave its pledge to the Priority
Commissioner that the industry would in every
way in its power see to it that the thought was
brought home to the purchaser that skilled labor
should bo employed ' only in ease of absolute
necessity. IN OTHER WORDS, WHEREVER
POSSIBLE THE BUILDING WORK SHOULD BE
DONE BY THE FARMER AND HIS OWN HELP,
AND NO NEW WORK UNDERTAKEN EXCEPT
WHERE ABSOLUTELY NEEDED.
It Is therefore up to the industry to keep faith
with Washington. The roost important thing in
life right now is to utterly crush the Hun. No
personal interest, no selfish purpose should inter
fere with this great need.

OREGON FUEL NEWS
Portland, Oregon. The method I
adopted by the oil t companies of
f rcing garages to remain closed
from 6 a. m. to 6 p. m. and on Sun-1
(Hys by refusing to soil g.i.scliue or
dis IP.ate to the dealer until he first
agrees not to sell during the pre
scribed hours, and claiming author
ity from the U. S. Fuel Administra
tion for so doing, has been referred
by Fred J. Holmes, Federal Adminis
trator for Oregon, to M. L. Requa,
Director of the National Oil Division
of the fuel administration at Wash,
ington. The state administration
will abide by the national decision.
"No order or recommendation for
making no sale of oil and gasoline
on Sundays and holidays or after 6
p. m. on other days has been issued
by any governmental authority or
with any governmental approval,"
reads a ruling Issued from Wash
ington under date of August 1. "The
fuel administration has urged that
wasteful practices in the use of oil
and gasoline shall be stopped and
all reasonable and proper measures
of conservation shall be observed.
No limitations, however, have been
placed upon the sale of these products."
W. O. Beall, assistant counsel of
the oil division of the fuel adminis
tration at Washington, states in a
letter to Mr. Holmes dated October
23, that "in regard to the question
of limitations upon the sale of
gasoline, the attitude of the fuel
administration remains the same as
on August 1."
Some of the companies claim to
have received instructions from the
Pacific Coast oil division, but D. H.
Folsom, oil director, has asked only
for "voluntary cooperation of dealers."
J. K. Firth, Jr., Secretary of the
Pacific Coast War Service Committee,
which some of the oil companies
state have issued orders, said in a
letter to Mr. Holmes, dated October
25:
"This office will not issue In
structions that distributors of gas
oline and distillate on the Pacific
Coast confine their sales to the
hours between 6 a. m. and 6 p. m.
We are asking for the voluntary
cooperation 01 an oisiriDuiors. we
trust you will cooperate with us in
asking distributors to voluntarily
limit their sales to the hours be
tween 6 a. m. and 6 p. m."
Neither has the State Council of
Defense issued any closing odars,
but only a request for a closing,
which is purely voluntary.
"I shall cheerfully cooperate In
any measure inaugurated by the
government," said Mr. Holmes, "but
until I am so advised, I shall not
sanction the enforced ' closing of
garages by oil companies in the name
of the fuel administration."
