Loyal Legion of Loggers and Lum­
bermen.
------ o------
Portland, Or. Nov. 25.—Under au­
thority of the Secretary of War, a
campaign will begin tomorrow to en­
list every loyal member of forest in­
dustry in the Pacific Northwest in
support of the Government’s war pro­
gram through hastening airplane and
ship construction. An organization
known as the Loyal Legion of Log­
gers and Lumbermen has been es-
tablished by the War Department,
members of which pledge their co­
operation lor the duration of the war
and wear a government badge signi-
fying that this patriotic service to
their country has been officially ac­
cepted. It is to include all men en­
gaged in logging and mill work. A
large force of army officers has been
detailed by Col. Brice P. Disque, of
the U. S. Signal Corps, with bear­
quarters in Portland, to visit camps
and mills for the purpose of explain­
ing the urgent need of such co-opera­
tion and personally receiving th<
membership pledges.
The Loyal Legion of Loggers and
Lumbermen is promoted entirely by
the Government itself, through the
War Department. Its primary pur­
pose is to impress upon all woods and
mill workers apd operators that in
their present occupation they are per­
forming patriotic service of great ur­
gency and that the Government ap­
preciates this exactly as it does mili­
tary service. The Government badge
of the Legion will be evidence that
the wearer is doing his bit for his
country in the way he can help it
most. His liberty and his employment
relations are in no way restricted, for
he merely promises the Government
his best effort personally to get out
the material which has become of
such tremendous importance.
"In short”, Col Disque explains, "it
it gives the loyal worker the oppor­
tunity he desires lo enlist as a rc-
DEPOSITORY.
organized part of the Nation's de­
fense in this time of need, while 011
the other hand it will tell the Gov­
ernment just whom it can count on.
In return the government is afforded
an opportunity to show its apprecia­
tion, not only now but on any occa­
sion which may arise. It will have an
intimate interest in the welfare of
members of the Loyal Legion."
In the official communication from
the Secretary of War establishing this
unique organization in the Pacific
Northwest, which is likely to receive
prominence from the spread of the
movement to other regions and pos­
sibly other industries,
Secretary
Baker telegraphs Colonel Disque:
"1 am convinced the organization
will prove a great asset to the Gov­
ernment in the succesful prosecution
of the war, particularly in increasing
the needed production of spruce and
fir lumber so vitally required at this
time and so necessary to the carrying
out of the army program for the
1918 offensive.
Newton D. Baker”
The pledge required of members of
the Legion is:
"In consideration of my being
made a member of the Loyal Legion
of Loggers and Lumbermen, 1 do
hereby solemnly pledge my efforts
dutilt£^tlus war to the United States
of America, and will support and de­
fend this Country against enemies,
both foreign and domestic."
"1 further agree, by these presents,
faithfully to do my duty toward this
Country by directing my efforts every
working day possible to the produc­
tion of logs and lumber for the con­
struction
of Army Airplanes and
Ships to be used against our common
enemies. That 1 will stamp out any
sedition or acts of hostility against
the United States Government which
may come within my knowledge, and
I will do every act and thing which
will in general aid in carrying this
war to a successful conclusion.”
A button for members if being is­
sued temporarily, to be replaced by a
bronze badge now being manufactur­
ed by the Government, showing, be­
tween two trees, an airplane hovering
over a ship at sea, being symbolical of
the forest supply and its two urgent
war uses. It bears the initial of the
Legion and the authorization of the
Secretary of War, also the device of
a crossed saw and ax between the ie t-
ters U. S.
Another high authority greatly in­
terested in the
organization
is
Chairman Howard E. Coffin of the
Aircraft Production Board, who is
largely responsible to the Govern­
ment for the success of its entire air­
craft construction program. He has
wired Colonel Disque:
"It should bring home to the peo­
ple of Washington and Oregon the
realization that every blow struck by
an ax in getting out aircraft materials
is not less a blow at the enemies of
our country and of democracy that a
bayonet thrust on the fighting front.
The patriotism of the men who go in­
to the woods in the aircraft service is
above approach and the value of the
service which they are rendering of
the most national vital importance.”

Ford Offers n,000 Tractors to France
------ o
Henry Ford informed friends at the
Detroit Athletic Club in Detriot the
other day that he had just notified
France that that country could have
12,000 Ford tractors. He is now work­
ing on from 6000 to 7000 for England,
and all of these will have to be deliv­
ered before America's demand is met.
Ford said that all the tractors were
being fitted to create their own light
for night work. The other night a
test was made with one of them, and
it plowed an acre in 65 minutes.
