a few days a month. Temporary
auto licenses have been issued
from the tax offices, where this
(unction has caused considerable
congestion.

tion of Chester Shuler of Klamath

entirely different design for Ita
class pin and ring. The student
body will probably vote on the
matter some time In the future.
Letters were awarded to ath
letes playing the necessary quota
of quarters this football season
at an assembly Wednesday. Since
the Pelican . team didn't lose a
game thia season tradition was
followed and every senior on the
squad was awarded a letter. An
exceedingly large number of boys
playing football on the Pelican,
Wildcat and trosh squads won let

HOOVER REVIEWS

IN RADIO TALK
NEW YORK. Dec. 21 (U.R The
forces of "primitive savergy have
been unloosened upon the world,"
former President Herbert Hoover
said last night at a "Help tor Fin
land" mass meeting under spon
sorship of the Finnish Relief Fund,
Inc., of which he is director.
Hoover, whose ornanitation al-
renrtv has fnhtaH 11 nn nriA tn KMn-I
land, said the fund was "cooper
ating with the American Red Cross
and urged support or Its 'bene
ficent service.' "
The Red Cross informed him,
he told a crowd at Madison Square
Garden, "they would be glad to
supply medicine and hospital sup
plies, they could collect garments
through their chapters, but the
responsibilities - for - the greater
burden of general relief measures
were beyond their field."
"At the moment," Hoover said,
"there Is no actual shortage of
food In Finland. But the thous
ands of destitute need funds to
buy it. They need shelter. They
need bedding. The sea-blockade
and the destruction of their com
merce will bring famine later on."
The president baa said We have
a rendezvous with destiny. We
seem to be on our way toward a
rendezvous with despair. Thom

German Captain Acted in
Accordance With Old Code
, By DKW1TT MACKKN.IK
Captain Hana Langsdorft acted
in accordance with the old Prus
sian code of honor for the fight
ing man when he killed hlmiolt
so that ha might pass out with
his ship, the Admiral drat Spec,
which undor ordera he scuttled In
the green waters of the south At
lantic art Montevideo Sunday.
There is a Spartan hardness and
courage In this code, which vules
that the Individual sustain honor
with death when misfortune has
overtaken him. There are ton
countries lu which this still per
sists, one other notable example
being Japan where men commit
harl-karl for the honor of their
Mikado.
The badge of InltlaUon Into this
Prussian code la the sabro soar
across the face a livid mark
which you see most officers wear
ing eveu today when dueling Is
not so prevalent as It used to be.
That scarce an advertisement to
the world that the wearer can
"take It" when It comes to endur
ing physical hurt.
I saw much of the working of
this codo at the front during the
World war. I believe I may have
mentioned in this column the epic
of the Third Prussian Guard at
one of the battles of Lens, In
France.
The Germans had been driven
from their trenches In this sector
by the British and repeated coua
ter attacks failed to disclose the
enemy. An example was folt
necessary to raise tho moralo of
the German troops.
The German command called
on a contingent of guardsmen, the
kaiser's troops. With shoulders
back and eyes front they marched
four abreast straight Into the
British machine-guns, to be mowed
down In rows. Then their com
rades attacked, and recaptured the
trenches.
Perhaps It was this characteris
tic which led the small boy. Adolf
Hitler, to dream of the day when
he should see a great German con-
