BRITISH ARE DETERMINED
TO CONTINUE THE WAR
LONDON, Aug. G. "Wo look for
ward wllh confidence lo success and
triumphant peace" was the conclusion
of an Inspiring telegram irom Cion
eral Sir Douglas llalg, commander of
tho British armies in France, read at
a packed meeting In Queen's hall to
night, to celebrate tho second anni
versary of the war.
In a brief speech Karl Derby said:
"Notwithstanding our losses and
tho misery and anxiety caused by tin
war, tho empire Is Just as determined
as ever to see tlermau militarism
crushed. Although tho etui of the
war may not bo in sight, never have
we stood in so favoraMo position us
tonight."
Premier Asuullli received a tre
mendous reception when he moved a
resolution expressing the Inflexible
determination of tho peoplo of Lon
don to continue tho war to tho sue
cossful end.
"Our navy" the premier continued,
"wllh Uh ever-tightening grip, is
throttling (lie life of Oermauy and
never In history has there been such
a demonstrative proof of the supreme
officer In command of the seas. The
enemy Is everywhere on tho defen
sive. In rio theater has he attempted
to regain tho initiative and there arc
signs of ills material weakening and
exhaustion."
CAR SHORTAGE HURTS WIL

SAI.KM, Ore., Aug. G. -The car
shortage on (lie Southern Pacific rail
road In the Willamette valley con-
tlnnes lo Increase dally, according to
reports received by the Oregon pub
lic service commission and the clos
ing of lumber mills is foreseen unless
speedy relief is afforded.
The commission was notified today
that tho Summit Mill company bud
boon forced to close. The situation
was called lo the attention of the
Southern Pacific officials, who ord
ered three cars sent to Summit.
The lotal shortage today was ! 2 .".
enrs, there being M4 orders on file
with 3711 empties.
WIIFniHIt or not the (lennaii merchantman subma
rine Dtuitseliland lias wifely made her escape on her
homeward voyage will not. be known until her arrival at
her home port. It she docs not arrive, it will be sale to
conclude that the allied warships have seized her.
The British and French, for reasons best known to
themselves, veil their submarine captures with secrecy.
No announcement follows the netting or sinking of a sub
marine. Although some time since a banquet was given
on the occasion of the, capture or destruction of the liun
dreth German submarine boat, no public announcement de
tailed the seizure of a single one of the hundred.
The fact that the Bremen, sister ship of the Deutsch
land, is long over due, arouses fears that ill-luck has befall
en her. But if the British have captured her, it will not be
defnitely known until after the war is over.
Save as a blockade runner in war time, the usi of the
submarine as a merchantman is unpractical. Jleavy .or
bulky freight cannot be carried, on account of the vessels
size and construction. Necessarily the submarine must be
comparatively small. It cannot go deep without being
crushed by the pressure of wat er. t must be short enough
to turn herself for rising or diving without the depressed
end beeing deep enough to be crushed. Extremely deep
water is needed for maneuvering.
The Beutschland's voyage was by no means a record
breaker. Mir ( Jilbert Parker is authority for the statement
tlila since the war began, ten submarines have made the
voyage from Canada to Oivnt Britain and two from Groat
Britain to Canada and back. The Australian subniei-?:
bles, smaller vessels, made the 12,000 miles from England
to Aust ralia. British and German submarines have gone
from their home ports through the Mediterranean into the
Black Sea. The Deutschland's trip is unique in that ii is
t he first use of a .submersible as a mercantile blockade run
ner. The voyage of the Deutschland is in effect a notice from
Germany that she can bring the war home to the Uuit.d
States whenever she desires and should be a warning to
prepare for defense against submarine raids rather than
spend hiindreds of millions in battleships useful only in a
war of aggression. y
OUR NEWSPAPER GUESTS
OTvEGON'S editors, city and country, are guests of
Medford and are being given a plimpse of a portion of
the state, rich in natural resources, superior in climatic
and scenic, attractions, populated by enterprising people,
but little known to most Oregonians.
As a class the newspapermen eampare most favorably
with those of any calling.. They make up in industry -what
they lack in acquisitiveness, and their unselfish unappre-
lated lovalty to their communities is worth much 1 me gold
that they never see for the newspaper man, in addition to
being a community builder is the community goat.
The city editor draws the biggest salary, but the coun
try editor is his own hired man and what he lacks in filthy
lucre he makes up in independence and all in all has con
siderably the best of it. If he is in disrepute, he has only
himself to blame. He is respected according to his ini'da-
tive, force and integrity for the paper invariably reflects
the character ol the editor.
In addition' to ability to write well, a "nose for news,"
a wide knowledge of human nature and a t horough grasp of
fundamentals, the editor must have good business judg
ment so that the successful editor possesses abilities that
applied in almost any commercial business, would mean
financial success yet it is to the credit of the calling that
fortune is sacrificed to ideals.
That the editors may enjoy themselves and leave with a
better idea of this isolated region and a broader sympathy
for the efforts of southern Oregonians to help themselves
in the development of Oregon is the universal hope of their
hosts.

NEW YORK, Aug. B. Although
strikes were in efrect today on nearly
overy surface car Hue in Manhattan,
Queens and the llronx with between
2,000 and 2,500 niotormen and con
ductors reported idle, professional
strikebreakers and loyal workers
were in the places of the strikers,
and officials of thu Xew York Hall
ways company and the New York and
Queens County railways said at 10
a. m. that almost normal schedules
were being maintained.
Police Commissioner Woods as-,
Bigned a policeman to every car of
these lines and except for a few
minor demonstrations, there was no
disorder. Officers of the two com
panies asserted that fewer than 5 00
men had struck.
Tho cars were late in getting away
from the barns, which led to the be
lief earlier in tho day that a serious
tleup had been effected.

"And they brought

These erey hairs came when they
brought Will home, after the fire.
Afterward, it was all I could do
to pull myself together and think of
some way to keep the children and
not break up the home. Will was a
good husband and it was not his
Fault we couldn't save much money.
He was more than good he was
thoughtful, too. I found, then, that
he'd taken out the ETNA TEN
DOLLAR COMBINATION POLICY
and that I was to have over $3000
for it. Just think! it cost him only
$10 a year to
ETNA-IZE
so little he never talked about it
and it brought this windfall to me!

dent may come. I'm sure if you told
