AMERICANS In BAD
SHAPE ON CONTINENT

London. Aug. 5.-Help, not only on
a large scale, but at once. it was stated
by Americans here today, is needed II
grave distress is 10 be prevented among
their eouutrymen in Europe.
The situation here was difficult, but
on the continent it was said 20 be be-
coming alarming Means Of trgnsporta-
ti0n 10 the coast are lacking. even 10
those well able 70 pay for it, the rail.
roads being engaged TO the limit Of
their capacities in carrying troops, and
most automobiles, horses and carriages
having heen enmmarieered for military
purposes.
Large numbers Of tourists, including
women and children, it was reported,
were trying to make their way TO the
sea on foot, some Of them from points
far in the interior. Besides the hard
ships they were compelled TO undergo,
it was felt that in some cases they must
be in actual danger.
Concerning DR.. David Starr Jordan
Of Stanford university, California, some
actual alarm was felt. Il was not known
exactly where he was, but if he follow.
ed the itinerary he had laid out, it was
believed he was somewhere in the Bal
kans, one of the least desirable places
in Europe for a foreigner, or even a
native, at the present time.
Nine. Ernestine Sehumann-Heink, the
singer. was also marOOned at Beyreuth.
Three Americans were detained by
the authorities in Germany, according
to latest accounts, suspected OF spying
on the fatherland s military operations.
OF these one is said to be S. B. Conger,
a newspaper correspondent in Berlin.

NEWPORT WILL NOT
Get ANOTHER BANK

The agitation among some of the
citizens of Newport for a second bank
in that city will come to nought ac-
cOrding to the announcement of State
Superintendent of Banks S. G. Sargent
who returned last night from a two
days trip to that city While It is
true that during the summer season
there is enough business in that city
TO support two banks, but to average
the business for the entire year there
IS not more than enough business for
one strong state bank and one good
substantial bank is better than two
weak ones in the opinion of Mr..
Sargent.
A delegation of Newport citizens
waited upon him when he arrived and
he heard both sides of the ease and
came to the conclusion that the charter
for the second bank would not be
granted if application for it were made
TO the state board. Mr.. Sargent saws
that he found that most of the business
IN that city was for the summer orlv.
That merchants and owners of .drions
concessions moved to that city when
the outing season commenced and con.
strueted a temporary shack for the
summer as a business house. In she
winter it was either torn down or
abandoned and that there was little in
the enterprise to act as security in case
of loan.
The Western State Bank in that citv
he says is run on a conservative and
sensible basis and that no banker wonld
be justified in making loans on spch
tllmsy business enterprises. A la.ge
part of the agitation for new bank
was from people who had some conces.
sion to promote but had been denied
by the present bank.
The yearly business only could be
used as basis upon which to compute
the wealth Of the community and that
the time was not ripe nor did the bnsi.
ness jutify the establishment of another
bank at the present time was the con.
eluSiOn of Mr.. Sargent.

PRIZES ARE OFFERED
FOR CATCHY SLOGANS
superintendent Churchill Offers Prizes
for "Yens That VIII Give Cigarette
Smoking a Solar tlexus.

Prizes for anti-cigarette slogans or
yells are being offered TO the school
children belonging to State Industrial
clubs by the superintendent Of public
instruction, j. X. Churchill
\ letter which is being circulated
among the 900 club members in the
state, follows:
Il was suggested that We make it'a
requirement tnat the winners of the
capital prizes at the state fair this year
should be non-eigarette smokers. We
decided this was not necessary as
achievement boys" are not cigarette
fiends, and we are expecting to have
two boys in the school camp at the
state fair from each county who do
not smoke cigarettes, who are proud of
the fact and who viii be glad to use
their influence to make the habit un-
popular. We think a splendid plan for
getting tnis result will be to have a
number OF anti-eigarette slogans or
yells to use during the week. So we
are offering three prizes for the clubs
that send US the best slogans by Sep
tember 10. Three dollars for first, two
dollars for second and one dollar for
third prize.
We are sure you will all be proud
to have part in a movement that will
be helpful in banishing this boy de-
strOyer from the land.
Each club may send as many as
three yells and thus have three chances
at the prize.
Wishing you every possible benefit
from your club work, 1 remain,
''Yours sincerely,

STATE SOLD LANDS
BEFOEE 1T HAD TITLE

The effort to clear the title to Is or
20 tracts OF land in Klamath county
was taken up today by Governor West
and the state land board. The lands in
question were swamp lands which were
sold by tn estate before the state
acquired the title to them. For various
reasons the state neglected to get a
clear title and many of the tracts sold
by the state were later mOrtgaged bv
the owners to the state Some of these
mortgages were foreclosed and the lands
resold to settlers. Then it appeared
that the state had no title to the lands.
The state applied 10 the government
for a patent TO these lands and the gov
eminent lerused the patent ON the
grounds that the lands were within the
territory of the klamath Indian lands
The decision was handed down bv
the commissioner OF the general land
office ami in ease an appeal to the
Secretary Of the Interior results in an
affirmation of the commissioners de-
eisiOn the state win be obliged to re.
fund the money spent by the settlers
for these lands.
