Although Polk county has approximately $147,000 in hand for read work, the money is ly ing idle for want of contractors to prosecute the work contemplated for this year. Twenty one bridges in the county have been condemned because of their unsafe condition, yet it is wily possi ble to secure sufficient help, and that at an extremely high wage, to render these structures safe for traffic. Three weeKs a?o the county court advertised for bids for the improve- ment of 10 miles of road over what is known as Butler Hill, saving nine nules in connecting with the main Til lamook roal. Not a single .bid was re ceived for the work, which would re- quire the greater part of the summer j to perform. The same is true regard- ing the operation of the County's two rock quarries. Notwithstanding that the court has made a liberal wage scale for workmen, it has thus far been unable to find even a small crew. Usually at this season of the year the county has about 150 men engaged in road work, while at present there is only local patch operations under way. insects, which drop on the platform.

America's Shipbuilding Program Is Increased New York, Mav 13. America's shipbuilding program probably will be increased fifty per cent, if the plans of Director General Charles M PchwaD materialize it was learned today on Schwab's departure for Cleveland. Before leaving on the first &p ot his tour of inspection of the slnpyarus along the Great Lukes, Schwab de clared that such an increase was feasible.- HUN ATROCITIES (Continued from page one) Similar occurrences were reported at Zhaliki and Omeli. Those suspected of being Bolsheviki were shot in the spot. Many .persons were flogged. Old meu were bound on horse saddles and drag ged by .mules. At Viiborg, a witness saw 200 corpses Six hundred Russians were lined up and sliKit down by machine guns, in two days, 200 persons, including wo men and .children, were sentenced to death after officers of the Finnish White Guard had conferred for ten minutes. 4000 Killed Moscow, May 11.

Tlwero is no other force of fighters left in the world that contains such splendid offensive material as the Americans. This is because America is tho only first class power left that still has its young men intact; and it is the youths in tlib twenties who man.', tho best offensive soldiers. It is iin nrobable, too, that General Toch, would consent under normal circumstances to the nermnnent employment of these virile, actiw, young Americans for de fensive trench warfare. Nor is it likely he will be agreeable to th.'ir employ ment for a major ofensive until there arc enough Americans in France to give a reasonable Burety of success. The bri gading of Americans during the pr.csent scries of combats is an admirable pro cedure for completing their training. It is futile for soldiers to enter upon offensive operations with simply a trnuiine in the theory of warfare. Ac tual practice is absolutely necessary for the Americans and this they can get wjth maximum results through the bri gading nicthod. But, the brigading is only preliminary to the real thing, and the real thing will come when there are sufficient Americans in irancfl lor an offensive on a gigantic scale that may push the fighting front well into Ger many between the Lorraine border and the Khinc.
