Government Officials Propose More
Drastic Laws Against Foreign
Probing of Military Plans.

Activities Of persons suspected of
being spies employed by foreign gov
ernments to acquire information re-
garding the nature and extent of the
defenses of the Panama canal have
decided the administration to request
Congress to supplement the existing

Of knowledge of military and naval
plans and fortifcations.
Representatives of the Department of
Justice and the War and Navy depart

Legislation to be submitted to Con-
gress. 1t Is possible that the scope
of the conference may be extended be-
yond the original idea of mere pro-
lection of the secrets of American
coast defenses, to cover generally such
attempts as have been common since
the beginning of the present war to
destroy powder and munition plants,
upon which the United States govern
ment must rely in time of trouble.
Suspicious OF japanese Ship.
Several of the military powers of
the world are believed to have under
taken to obtain information as to the
character of the defenses of the Pan
anna canal The latest incident to ex-
cite suspicion is the operations of a
little japanese power vessel which
sought to obtain permit for pearl
fishing in the waters of Panama bay
and vicinity. The canal authorities
have been warned that this craft ap-
peared to have been making surveys
and that these were not confined 10
the water. but extended to the isthmus
proper.
While these operations may have been
| perfectly innocent in intent, and only
such soundings were made and bear
| ings taken as might be incident to the
pursuit of pearl fisheries, the Canal
/ Zone authorities have regarded the
matter as of sufficient importance to
! warrant investigation and report to
| Washington. Meanwhile licenses have
! been withheld until some general line
of policy can be formulated to govern
all such cases.

BY BRITISH GENERAL
Further Reverses for Russians in
Persia Are Reported From
Constantinople.

LONDON, August 5.-The Turkish at
tack on the British positions in Egypt
to the east of the Suez canal comes as
no surprise to those who are in close
touch with the operations in that part
of the world. Gen. Sir Archibald Mur-
ray. who commands the British army
there, has long realized that the Turks
with the assistance of the Austrians
and Germans might make a serious at
tempt on the canal even at the the hot
test period of the year.
Austrian and German engineers for
many months have been digging for
water, which, close to the Mediter-
ranean coast, exists in many cases at
no considerable depth under the sand.
although it mostly is too brackish for
use of European troops. The Turks
must, therefore, have made very thor
ough arrangements for the storage
and transport of water. the country
being pure sand desert, with small.
widely scattered oases of date palm
growing around ancient wells.
Long Transport for Water.
At Romani. where fighting is in
progress. the Turks must bring up
every drop of water from Aughratina,
some ten miles away.
It is understood that the Turks have
with them some 1000 to 1000 Austro-
German infantry. as well as a large
number of Bedouin irregular horse.
Their choice of the coast route In
stead of the caravan road from katia
to Kantara, which they took the last
time, brings their flank under the fire
of warships in the Bay of Tina.
Further Reverses for Russ.
E,r+bar raverses for the Russian
armies in Persian territory are reported
in the Turkish war office statement
under date of August 4, which follows:
"Irak front: One of our volunteer de-
tachments inflicted losses on a weak
hostile detachment and captured horses
and cattle.
July 90, in a battle near Bukan,
Persia, the Russians were compelled to
retreat northward, abandoning 200

LONDON, August Sam
culinary battles are raging to-
night at two points along the
western front in France, one in
the region of Pozieres, where the
forces under Gen. Haig have
pushed forward over a front of
several thousand yards, and the
other to the north of Verdun,
where counter attack after
counter attack is being launched
by the crown princes armies, in
an effort to regain the village of
Fleury and the famous Thiau-
mont work, both of which are
held by the French and around
which some of the fercest fight
ing of the war has been going
on during the past three or four
days.
The British advance to the north of
Pozieres is the elimination of an en-
deavor to straighten out their line be-
tween this point and Thiepval. The at
tack, which was made by Australians
and troops of the new Kitchener army,
resulted also in the taking Of several
hundred prisoners. German counter
attacks against the newly won posi-
tions were repulsed with heavy losses.
London asserts.
Further than stating that a new
battle was developing near Pozieres,
Berlin makes no mention of the latest
British advance. British attacks, how
ever against the sectors from north
of Ovillers to Foureaux wood were re-
pulsed by the Germans. On the French
front in the Somme region, Paris says
there has been only little activity.
while Berlin claims the repulse of a
French advance south Of Maurepas.

'PENDLETON TEACHER
HAS PRACTICAL PLAN
Has Girls Taking Domestic
Science Course Take
Care Of House

Pendleton has school teacher who
has a new scheme in teaching domestic
science, according to j. A. Churchill,
state superintendent of public instrue-
tion, who has returned from Eastern
Oregon after attending the Eastern
Oregon division of the Oregon state
teachers association meetings. This
scheme has been in successful operation
by Miss Alice Butler, head of the de-
partment of domestic science in the
Pendleton high school. The idea is for
the girls to manage a house in all its
details.
For this purpose furnished house
of eight or nine rooms is secured and
the girls put in charge. The house is
rented to the teachers of the school
who live in it while the girls of the
domestic science department clean the
windows, sweep the floors, make the
beds, plan the meals, take care of the
buying, keep all the household accounts
and do all the things necessary to gain
practical experience in housekeeping.
The teachers who pay for the house
and the actual running expenses sit
down to meals planned entirely by the
domestic science girls who have bought,
and cooked the food They take care
of the electric light bills, and, in fact
everything. This feature of the~sehooI
work is new and the plan is apparently
working out successfully as it gives
the girls a practical working knowledge
of household economy.

Mt. Angel Baked and
Willamette Given Game

Getting peeved over an adverse off
side decision of the headlinesman, Mt.
Angel s husky team walked off the To-
cal sridiron Saturday afternoon in the
third quarter of the game, thereby for
feiting to Willamette by score of
to o.
The announcements heralded foot
ball game; the spectators saw mud
battle for about three-fifths OF the al
lotted playing time; the Willamette
team found themselves without oppon-
ents,-such was the end of what start
ed in to be decidedly interesting game
of water polo on the spongy marsh.
The first quarter revealed success
full touchdown registered by the Mt
Angel collegians after series of line
bucks and end runs. The Willamette
cohort seemed unable to stop their
charges, even though their opponents
were penalized time and again for hold
ing. But at the critical moment the
sons Of Jason Lee seemed to rally and
prevented their heavier visitors from
adding further scores.
The second quarter was repetition
of the first, but neither team got with
ing striking distance of their respective
goals.
However. the third quarter saw new
determination and fight in the Meth
odist lads and it was not many seconds
until Mt. Angel likewise knew that the
Willamette team had renewed their ag-
gressiveness. Here it was that the
strange forfeiture to Willamette occur
red. After Is yard penalty against
Mt. Angel for holding, the ball was Will
lamette's on Mt. Angels 25 yard line.
On the first down Bartlett plunged the
line for 10 yards. A pass followed
which Mt Angel player caught and re-
turned 20 yards While the pass was be-
ing negotiated, the Mt. Angel end was
clearly several feet offside and Head
linesman Adams started out on the field
to notify the referee. The next scrim-
mage had taken place before that of
ficial's attention could be obtained.
Referee Schmitt then promptly proceed
ed to enforce the penalty. Mt. Angel
refused it, even though their end frank
ly admitted that he was offside. Cap.
tain Kasberger of the Mt. Angels at
tempted to protest, but the referee le-
Ultimately stood for their just decision.
Failing in this, the Mt. Angel captain

felt the game l to 0 to Willamette. No
amount of argument could make Mt
Angel consent to arbitration. The local
varsity players were disgusted, for a
forfeit of this nature is not in keeping
with the recognized Willamette desire
to be good sports, win OF lose.
