PICTURES IDEAL
RURAL COMMUNITY

Eugene. Ore, Jan. 16.-(University
Special)-The first paper on the pro-
gram Of the Third Annual Common
wealth conferences was delivered by
Mrs. Clara H. Waldo, member of the
Agricultural College Board Of Re-
gents and ex-lecturer of the state
Grange. Mrs. Waldo outlined the
steps in the development of an ideal
rural community in oregon.
Cut up your great farms and prac-
tice intensive farming" she said.
THUS your farming communities will
be more thickly populated, the farm
ing class will have better social adj
vantages, more intercourse, and be
more broadly educated. Our intelli-
gent public sentiment can thus be best
promulgated. The greatest strength
of the state lies in her educated ru-
raj communities"
Americans, Mrs. Waldo believes,
take up too much land. They thus
isolate themselves and their families
and deprive them of the best educa-
tional facilities. This is the principal
reason why our farming class is low
er on the social scale than the pro-
fessional man, although their native
intelligence is just as high.
The speaker concluded with pic
ture of an ideal rural community. 1T
should consist Of a number of wen
built houses, situated on a dry sani-
tary tract of land near a good road.
There should be school house, with
a good gymnasium and park. Not a
foot of land should be wasted by
fences or houses except the few neces-
sary ones for stock enclosures"

NOTES OF THE LABOR
WORLD


John P. White claims that he will
be elected president of the Mine
Workers with the biggest majority on
record, when the annual convention
assemblies in Indianapolis next week
The late United States Senator S.
B. Elkins of West Virginia, was one
of the largest and most important
employers of labor in the country, and
large delegations of laboring men at
tended his funeral at Elkins, last
Sunday.
Owing to the weather conditions,
men employed in mosquito extermi-
nation at Stapleton, S. l., New York,
under the supervision of the health
department, have been placed on half
time. AS the men receive only $50
month and some of them have large
families, they have protested against
the reduction of their pay as unjust,
claiming their appointment to be on
the same basis as those of other city
employees
Osborn Moore of Charleston, S. c.,
representing the farmers alliance,
was the only negro delegate in the
recent convention of the American
Federation of Labor. Moore is past
20 years of age. a former slave and
gray and feeble. He has been at
tending the conventions for several
years, being president of his union.
Mrs. Joseph T. Bowen, chairman OF
the committee which has been sup
plying milk to five thousand babies
of the striking garment workers OF
| Chicago, has made an urgent appeal
costs $3.50 day to furnish the babies
with milk, and the treasury has moth
ing like that amount on hand, even
for one days needs. Discontinuance
of the milk distribution will mean the
jeopardizing of the health and even
the lives of hundreds of innocent ba-
babies weakened by lack of sufficient
nourishment.
The annual convention of the Cali
fornia Building Trades council which
will be held at San Rafael next week
will be the largest in the history of
the organization. Matters of great
importance to the building mechanics
of the state will be discussed. 1t Is
not unlikely that the trouble of the
building trades on the peninsular will
be taken up at the convention. This
troubled greatly concerns the building
trades council of San Mateo, and an
attempt will be made to bring about a
better understanding between the con-
tractors and the union.

PACIFIC COAST IS
VULNERABLE POINT
THUS CONSIDERED BY
BRIGADIER-GENE MAUS
Declares Navy on Pacific Coast More
Important Today Than an Army
Protection is Needed.

That the Pacific coast is the most
vulnerable point in the entire country
and the most inviting place for the
attack of foreign enemy is the state
ment of Brigadier- General Marion p.
Maus. commanding the department of
the Columbia. He urges adequate
protection for this seaboard, not so
much in additional land forces but in
augmented naval power.
You are far from the East" said
General Maus in discussing this sub
ject. You have lines Of transporta-
ton that can be blocked and you can
be shut off. I therefore warn you to
look out for that. Don't forget it.
Protection is a good thing for us.
This country has great natural
wealth and we want to keep it. You
don't want to allow the cupidity of a
foreign nation to get the better OF
you. To keep your wealth, you should
take these precautions that are SEN
sible.
I'VE should encourage that protec-
tion that every nation should give tc
its subjects, and that is a competent
force; and in this respect I speak
more of the navy than Of the army. A
navy today is more important on the
Pacific coast than an army. Every
sensible man knows that If you COM
mand the sea, you prevent an invas-
ion; of you don't command the sea
you invite 1t.
You should help everything that
tends to the protection of your coast
In after years, when the Pacific Coast
is densely populated, this question
will disappear. Then you will have the
sinews, you will have the people who
can protect your home and firesides
The means being taken to attract set
tiers to this coast is the very ster
which helps the commonwealth OF
our country. I like to see it,
General Maus said that the Pacific
coast, II occupied by an enemy OF
energy and intelligence, would make
a great base for military operations
directed against the rest of the coun-
try.
