railroad problem overshadowed
everything else here in the Mexican
situation today. The reply OF GEN
eral Carranza TO the request of the
United States government for per-
mission to use the railroads was ex-
pected to be sent forward to Wash

barrass the operations Of the Amer

the request would be bound &c be
seriously misconstrued by consid-
erable section OF the Mexican peo-

enemies OF General Carranza.
The unexpectedly rapid advance Of the

Pershing has forced the railroad oues-
tion TO an issue. Americans familier with

California Calls For Grain Bags
Delay in Getting
Shipments Causes
Rush on Portland

PORTLAND, ore, May 27.-Be-
cause of the nonarrival Of expected
bags in California from Calcutta, that
state is now drawing upon oregon for
immediate supplies and some ship
ments have been made in that direc-
tion. While it is stated that Califor-
mia has plenty Of bags ordered, the
shipments have been delayed. As
the barley harvest has started in the
Imperial valley, bags are urgently
needed and a hurry-up call was sent
to Portland for requirements.
Up to this time there has been con-
siderable weakness in the grain bag
market and sales were made in
round lots as low as 12c, but now an
advance of lc is generally being asked
at 13c.
Because OF the absence Of tonnage
from the north Pacific coast there is
practically nothing doing in the wheat
trade Practically all export interests
have Withdrawn from the market. II
shipments are made at all they must
be made via the Atlantic seaboard,
and the great delays in transit and
the added expense Of making these
shipments. has made it impossible for
exporters here to do business at q
profit.
Millers are practically the only buy
ers of wheat in the northwest at this
time, no response being shown from
the east at suitable prices. In the
meantime there is more general offer
ing of supplies among farmers and
receipts at tidewater are accumulat-
ing.

While one of the leading packers
was reported as favorlng a small de-
cline in the price from a year ago be-
cause of the carryover. practically all
the other packers favored last years
values; in fact have been billing out
at former prices.
Since announcement was made in
these columns last Saturday of the
shipment of the first two carloads Of
the 1916 pack from the Columbia
river by the Pillar Rock Packing
company, there has been practically
nothing of the new pack sent forward
because of the very scant pack.
Because of the excellent standing
of the market and the absence of sup
plies at this time, it is generally be-
lievea that the price of shad will
open higher. Last season pound tails
opened here at Csc a dozen, but at
least l0c advance is anticipated, and
in some quarters even a further rise
is forecast over 1915 figures.
Announcement was made during
the day by the Pillar Rock Packing
company that il had orders already
on hand for about all the shad it ex.
poets to pack this season. This alone
indicates great strength in the trade.

Advice to Juniors

men who have reached their third
year in high school writing notes and
throwing spit balls. You should be
above such tricks. You should have
discarded them three years ago Not
only that. you are not showing a pro-
per amount OF respect to your superb
ors. You are not taking an active
part in student body affairs. And
why ali OF this false pride? What
have you done that is so wonderful?
Physically you are the laughing stock
Of the school. In football and basket
ball you were scarcely represented,
while in track the underclass teams
have both beaten you. think a lit
tie humility would be far more be-
coming than all Of this pride And
what OF your class spirit Oh Junl-
or how much longer are you going
TO conduct your class meetings as II
you were auctioning off fine lace pill
lows and towels? Again, how much
longer are you going 10 let the So
phomore class keep their numeral on

dignity? How can you expect to
qualify as seniors when as Juniors you
are utterly devoid OF everything that
in any way looks like dignity? Don't
you know that a senior must always
bear himself in quiet dignified man
ner?
Now Juniors what | have said so
far has all been said in fun / would
like however, to leave one serious
thought with YOU. would like to
urge that when you come back to

Do your best and ! assure you that
when you find yourselves where we
find ourselves today you will have
nothing to regret.

LARGER POSTAL SAVINGS
TO Be ACCEPTED At P. 0.
AMENDMENT To ACT PERMITS
BIGGER DEPOSITS TO BE
MADE HERE.

Larger postal savings deposits will
now be accepted at the postoffice This
is made possible by an important am
endment to the postal savings act just
approved by President Wilson, A pos
tai savings depositor may now have
an account amounting TO $1,000 upon
which interest will be paid Formerly
$500 was the maximum amount he
could have to his credit. This en-
largement of postal savings facilities
will be very gratifying to thousands of
depositors who have already reached
the old $500 limit and are anxious to
entrust more OF their savings to I'm
Gle Sam Another feature OF the ans
endment that will avoid further en-
barrassment to the public and to pos
tai officials is the doing away with
the limit on the amount that could
be accepted from a depositor monthly.
Under the old law only S100 could be
deposited in calendar month. The
amendment abolishes this restriction
While the postal savings system has
already proved a signal success as is
shown by the fact that more than
half million depositors have over
eighty million dollars standing to
their credit, and still 1t has fallen
short OF meeting the full demands OF
the public because OF the restrictions
which have now been eliminated.
Postmaster General Burleson and
Third Assistant Postmaster General
Dockery have been tireless in their
efforts TO secure modification Of the
limitations and the new liberalizing
legislation is particularly gratifying
to them
