Sherwood has organized a local
patriotic league, members of which
agree to pay $1 or more per month to
create a fund to render prompt and
regular assistance to the Red Cross,
Y. M. C. A., dependent war families
and other war time necessities. All
credit is due to the promoters and it
is worthy of imitation by other com­
munities. It has for some time been
a mooted question as to whether war
lime activities of all kinds cannot be
better handled by this plan than by
separate campaigns, and it Is possi­
ble that we may yet see each district
organized and a fund created by as­
sessments made in proportion to
wealth, from which all quotas shall
be promptly paid.—Independent.
Every continuity will be combed
for war workers. War industries are
short nearly 400,000 common labor­
ers, and lack of workers In the coal
mining Industry is imperiling all war
production. There is also a serious
shortage of skilled labor. One of the
largest munition plants, turning out
heavy caliber guns, is short 2,000
machinists. The war plants of Con­
necticut and Maryland are under­
manned 35,000 machinists.
The
United StateB Employment Service
will begin an extensive recruiting of
workers for war work from the non-
essential industries. Employment of­
fices will be increased and the force
of local agents and traveling examin­
ers will be enlarged and sent into
every community that relief may be
given before the ban againHt private

'once hud. Incidentially It might be
remarked, however> that it is said
that the two bills which secured suf­
ficient signatures were those circu­
lated by a paid agent, which indica­
tes people still have the weakness of
signing their names if sufficiently
urged. It is a matter of opinion^ of
course, but there are people who
say that some of the bills which fail­
ed for lack of signatures were of far
greater importance, one being the
measure providing a levy for war
purposes, and another legthening
the terms of county offices. With the
6 percent limitation law in force no
one can deny that the first measure
was necessary while so far as the last
is concerned it has been the practice
to give county officers two terms of
two years, and trouble and expense
would have been saved by substitut­
ing a four-year term. The long term
was safeguarded by the recall.—In­

During February and March our
Allies in Europe were starving to
the point of licking the platter. Dur­
ing March in London there were al­
ways 200,000 or more people in line
waiting for a chance to get food sup­
plies. In April the foods saved by
Americans reached Europe in quan-
tity. Now Mr. Hoover says:
"The fortunate thing is our food
got over there just when the great
spring drive of the Germans got un­
der way, and just when the morale
of the allied peoples was going down
very fast. Our food saved the day
and we never could have shipped the
amount we did if it had not been for
the enormous savings voluntarily ef­
fected by the American people. The
America housewife is holding the
line by feediing our allies Until we
get an American army over there in
force. If it had not been for her, thq
war would have been over.”
Of course the authoritative infor­
mation is startling, and of course we
have all got to get right On conserv­
ing food, but the point we want to>
make is that it is authoritative
information as to what the people’s
savings have actually accomplished,
and in informing the American peo­
ple of what they have done hurts no­
body, even if the enemy may know it
Men. and women are but grown up
children. Show a child that it has
done big things, and, nine times out
of ten, it will at once go at doiing big
ger things. Mr. Hoover declares we
have saved Europe from collapse.
Therefore, let’s keep up the good
work.—Telephone Register.

Skilled Men Wanted.
A call for 175 men skilled in log-
ging and sawmill work must be fi 11-
ed by volunteers from Oregon by
July 23, or enough men will be
drafted from special and limited ser­
vice men in Class 1 to fill the quota.
The skilled workmen required are
as follows
70 chokermen, 50 head buckers,
24 doggers, 6 general sawmill fore­
men and 25 plainer trimmermen.
Volunteers for this service must be
of draft age, and are particularly de­
sired from Classes 2, 3 and 4. Those
who volunteer for the work will be
sent to Vancouver, Wash., for en­
gagement in producing spruce for
aeroplanes, which is one of the most
important branches of the whole ser­
vice just now.
"There are exceptional opportuni­
ties for energetic and ambitious men’
says a war department circular cal­
ling for the men. “The men inducted
into these calls will be engaged in
producing more spruce for airpianos
in the great northwest woods.”
