SOMETHING NEW

We wish to call your attention to
our new Unlocked process shoes. They
llr-40 per cent more feet than any 9th
er shoe on the market, Because they are
unlocked and find the contour of the
feet. The lasts, patterns and method of
making are entirely new.
The lasts are ball bearing and follow
the bottom shape of the human foot.
This support does not pull away from
the foot when the heel leaves the
ground or floor when walking or run
ming, as in other shoes.
Don't confuse these shoes with any
others that you have ever seen, as they
are entirely new and different. The
construction is such that they prevent
anterior arch trouble as well as flat
foot, and should be- worn by every one.
While these shoes are corrective,
orthopedic shoe, they are not made over
ugly lasts that do not fit and advertise
the fact that one S feet are not right.
They have been very carefully examin-
ed and tried out by many Orthopedic
Surgeons and Physicians and they high
ly recommend them.

mann Hollweg unexpectedly departed
from Imperial headquarters today, post
poning his speech before the reichstag
The reiehstag today continued discus
sion of the resolution authorizing it's
chief committee TO meet during ad-
journment and discuss foreign affairs.
The government does not object to the
measure and it is expected to pass.
Vice Chancellor Helffererich declared
that the government only favors the
resolution as war measure, but parlia
mentary observers have no doubt that
it is the beginning of wedge to give
the people s representatives a real voice
in the governments foreign policies.
At q caucus today the socialist mem
bers voted, 81 to 10, to support the new
$4,000, 100000 loan advocated by the
government.
Chancellor Won Bethmann- Hollweg
was expected to reply in the reichstag
today to the statements made by Wis
count Grey, British foreign secretary,

sponsibility for starting the war.
At the same time the chancellor was
expected to point to the new German
victories in Rumania as emphasizing
Germany's power and as offering proof

LECTURER
. CALLS ON WOODMEN
Addresses Local Lodge and
Is Given Ride Through
and Around City

Modern Woodmen of America of Sa
lem were given a flying visit yesterday
by Edward T. Burns, OF Brooklyn, New
\ ork, who is their supreme lecturer,
and in his honor they met in their halls
last night in the Mccormack building
tor an entertainment and talk by the
noted visitor. Mr.. Burns is fluent and
graceful talker and literally sprinkles
his lecture with wit and humor, so
much SO that his audience was in ex-
cellent humor all the time and regret
ted greatly the time when he had to
leave to catch the night train for the
south. He said he also regretted much
his hasty departure on account of the
dainty and tempting lunch that had
been prepared.
In his talk before the order and the
visitors he told of the wonderful growth
of the woodcraft movement and showed
how in the short space of 20 years 1t
had reached over million and a quar-
ter OF members. Contrasting this with
the growth of Christianity in the early
| days he said the historian says that i'll
one hundred years there were only
100000 Christians, And the Woodmen
he said was distinctly human move
ment while Christianity is eminently di-
vine. He said he made the comparison
with all due reverence for Christianity
but he said it showed the marvellous
growth OF the principles the order advo
Gated.
He told of the humanitarian work
being accomplished with their tubercu
losis hospital near Colorado Springs
where members go and are treated with
out cost to themselves. He enlarged on
what the order stood for, true patriot
ism, and Undivided allegiance to the
Stars and Stripes.
Mr.. Burns was accompanied from
Portland by J. w. Simmons, who gave
a short talk preceding the lecture.
Both were introduced by George Rein
OIL, venerable counsel of the Salem
camp. Mr.. Burns was met yesterday af-
ternoon by b. f. West, j. A. Wright
and G.. G. Bingham, who took the guest
on an automobile tour of the city and
nearby country. Both Mr.. and Mrs
Burns liked Salem very much and enjoy
ed thoroughly the hospitality.
Preceding the address by Mr.. Burns
a short program, consisting of the fol
lowing numbers, were given: A violin
ensemble by Elizabeth Thompson, Paul
PufNi6e, Ross Haffis'add Oswald Seav-
erson, under the direction of Miss Joy

Salem folks who have seen the Gra-

Could State Schools
Live Under Single Tax?

The fate of such institutions as the
University of Oregon and the Agricul-
tural college. should the provisions of
the proposed single tax bill ever be-
come effective, is puzzling to those
who have closely analyzed the measure.
II appears on the ballot under the title
of ''Full rental land tax and homemak-
ers' loan fund amendment - to the
state constitution. 1t was known as the
"peoples land and loan BILL, when the
petitions through which it obtained a
place on the ballot were circulated.
1t seems inevitable that within three
years at the most from the time of
passage of this measure the state treas
ury will be practically empty. The bill
is drawn to force all land now privately
owned to revert to the state, the own
ers preferring to relinquish it rather
than pay the enormous Gland rentals -
that operation of the measure will en-
tail.
Taxes are to be levied upon land a
lone. With the bulk of all land within
the state thrown back upon the state
by the present owners, payments of
taxes will practically cease.
tnuer SucH coHultloHs, where VIII tHe
money come from tor'the support of the
and the state agricultural
college as well as the other public in
stitutions now maintained by appropri-
ationl That is the question.
1t is conceded that were the single
taxed so named on the ballot there
would be little chance of its passage.
But, taking advantage of the campaign
for the state rural credits bill, its spon.
sors have succeeded in getting it on
the ballot under a title which leads
many persons to believe it is the rural
credits measure. They are two distinct
and utterly different measures. The
single tax bill is the first initiative
measure. Its voting numbers are BOG
YES, and 307 no.
