SEE US ABOUT YOUR GRAIN BAGS. Heppner Farmers Elevator Company FIRlilEII OF WHAT E Difficult Even Now to Get Men to Volunteer for Military Service in Europe. Washington, June 2. Congress men have discovered a keen resent ment among officers In the regular army establishment against the rec ently announced policy of the War Department to Bend all permanent officers overseas. The policy just adopted calls for the use of these of ficers as replacements with indica tions that their services will continue as long as it is necessary to main tain American forces in Europe. When General Pershing first called for 50,000 men to take the places of the men on the Rhine who wanted to return to provide for thoir fam ilies at home, an intensive recruiting system was inaugurated. At the same time commanding officers were instructed to compile a list of offi cers in their units who were anxious to serve overseas. While practically every man hold ing a commission ir. the United States Army used every influence at his command to get "over there" while the war was on, the depart ment has discoverel a marked disin clination to go to France and Ger many at this time. As the officering of the forces is an imperative neces sity, the department has issued or ders to select officers regardless of the preference of the Individual. Men experienced in American mil itary matters point to this as having a potent bearing upon any agree ment guaranteeing this country's participation in any war that may break out in Europe or elsewhere in the world In the future: If officers, whose life work is military work, are not willing voluntarily to offer AiTLES AND MILK IS CHO-CHO'S TEXT are at stake, not only the regular army officers and men hut the great mass of Americans whould volunteer to protect the country and defend its honor. But it is pointel out that even now there are about twenty small wars raging in Europe over boundary lines anl between Jealous nationalities, between some of which there has been racial hatred for gen erations. It is obvious that one of two alternatives are just ahead. Either these wars will continue and grow and involve all of Europe, as the small Balkan wars did, or the larger nations must step in and put an end to the conflicts. In either event it means that boundary lines and decisions made by the present peace conference will have to be propped up with bayonets. HINTON'S LAME DUCX MADE AIR HISTORY Cho-Cho the highest paid cir cus clown in the United States, goes about getting his smiles in a scientific way He has been em ployed by the government, work ing from the Interior Department and he tells the kiddies, "to eat red apples and drink a pint of milk a day, you will smile to see iow much you weigh " their services to police Europe or the uttermost parts of the earth in or der to prevent war, students of the situation cannot see how it will be possible to enlist men actively to en gage in actual war brought on by the United States' being compelled to interfere in European affairs, or af fairs elsewhere which Involve Euro pean nations alone. Yet this is con ceded to be the undoubted result of this nation's being a party to guar anteeing existing boundaries in Eu rope and the disposition of colonies elsewhere.
