REGIMENT
SOON WILL
f OIL IN I!

A stirring military scene was
enacted at Camp Elmer M. Brown
this afternoon when Troop b and
Company A, of the Signal Corps,
finally got away for Mexico.
The entire regiment stood at
attention while down the human
lane to a waiting special train
marched the first Washington SOL
diers to go South.
The band escorted the troop
and signal corps to the Cosgrove
station between the rigid lines of
infantrymen.
The troopers accommodations
consist of five sleeping cars, two
baggage cars and three Hat cars.
While no announcement was
! forthcoming, it is understood the
train was routed by was of Port
land.
Deep secrecy shrouds the move
ments of the regiment, but 1t is
comparatively certain that the
men will all be taken away not
later than Sunday night.
l.. S. Newton and w. 8. Sather,
n. p. representatives, said today
that 55 cars had been ordered for
the infantrymen.

JUST WHAT is
1T ALL ABOUT?

This week i'm Tacoma has seen a disturb.
ance on the waterfront in which three strik-
ers were shot, strikebreakers were beaten,
and private property was trespassed on.
IL has seen call to Gov. Lister for Use of
the state militia to keep order.
1t has seen a series of conferences between
officials, employers and striking longshore-
men.
1t has seen a riotous mass meeting in the
Commercial club to discuss the strike situa-
ton, In which prominent Tacoma attorney
was Missed and hOoted down for suggesting
that members of the lOngshOremen's union
had not been invited.
Ii has seen sharp criticism of our public
officials and police officers.
In view of all this, The Times today made
determined effort to learn just what
this Tacoma muddle Is all about, Just what
is at the bottom of il, who are raising the
fuss, and just exactly their complaint is.
The reporter who has tried to clear up
some of the middle has interviewed some
Of those most deeply concerned in the situa-
ton and makes this report
From Ii. W. Sawyer of Seattle, secretary
of the Employers Association of Washington
who was making his headquarters at the
Tacoma Commercial club:
You'd better talk to Charles Richardson
He's head of the Tacoma board of the En-
ployers association. | guess we've stirred
up something at last, haven't WEI"
From Charles Richardson president of the
Pacific Cold Storage Co., head of the En-
pIoyers' association and member of the Com
mercial clubs committee of 10:
81 don't know anything more about it than
you do. l believe we're trying to get more
men to guard the waterfront"
From Dr. Ernest c. Wheeler, president of
the Tacoma Commercial club:
THE purpose of the Commercial club has
been to assist the authorities who have been
unable to preserve order on account of in
ability to get enough men. Some of our men
have volunteered for service along the water
front.
THE Commercial club is not interested in
the strike. We don't condemn the Long,
shoremen's union. We are not against any
citizen of Tacoma who is law-abidng But

and were to start at once for a
tour of the bitches.
A reporters only excuse for en-
istence is to get the story into the
paper.
If it is impossible, you have to
do it anyway.
If you are killed, you must get
the story in before you die.
So,-"Where can | get a tele-
phone about noon?" l asked a
prominent citizen of Yelln, who
was dispatching the stream of au-
tomobiles down the road.
"Oh, there are plenty of 'em
around. There's one in the big
white house right hear the
grove" he replied reassuringly.
You'll be at the grove by noon.
and you can telephone from right
there"
We fell into place in line. II
was a pleasant tour. The earth
at the sides of the bitches had
hardly settled yet; the boards OF
the fumes were yellow with new
ness; the crowd got out every lit
tie while and swarmed around the
points of interest; the governor oil
the state and other dignified gen.
tlemen looked at the water with
interest and at the farmers and
townspeople of Yelm with re-
spect; and the farmers looked Al
each other with the happy won
der of those who see dreams
come true.
Most significant of all
were the statesmen who slip
ped quietly around through
the crowd - statesmen for
hayrakes, for silos, for
plows, for all the things
which everybody believes
Yelm farmers are going to
want in increasing numbers
from now on.
1t was genuinely great occa-
sion. l glowed with satisfaction
as the time drew near Tor me to
put the story of it on the tele-
phone.
In fact, was so anxious to do
so that 1t was not yet noon when
as we passed a farmhouse to
which telephone wire was con-
nected, l decided not to wait to
reach the big white house near
the grove.
Mr.. Sloan pulled up the Rec
and / went in, welcomed heartily
by the entire family, which stood
in the yard waving at the passing
autos. ~.

more shorts and q long. Then

THERE WAS NOBODY
THERE.
The exercises at the grove were
fine. q
p. J.. Martin, president OF the
irrigation projejct, explained that
ii is of equal importance to all
lands in Southwestern Washing
ton of similar character, and that
they hoped to make Yelm the
Petaluma OF the Northwest.
Gov. Lister praised the project
and spoke of good roads.
Peter Goven, of Sequim, and G..
J. Lord OF Olympia, also spoke.
But l didn't hear much they
said. l was wondering IL some
body else had found way to
get the story out of Yelm.

control of the union and the public officers,
and there begins reign of terror on the
waterfront, putting business and shipping at
a standstll, we believe it time for the cti-
zens of the city to take a hand"
From August Seitz, secretary of the Long,
shoremen's association i'm Tacoma:
I'VE are not complaining against anybody
whatever. The only thing we are complain
ing against is the shipment of arms from the
Kimball Gun Co. to the Tacoma building
Monday night between midnight and l
o'clock
I'VE are absolutely against violence of any
kind We have absolutely nothing to gain
by going up against armed force. We
discountenance the disturbance the water
front Monday night, and have gone down the
line against violence.
1T is possible that few of our members
may get beyond our control, but | am con-
fident that there is nothing to fear from our
organization.
1--WE are ready at any time to confer with
the employers with the Commercial club.
We were not invited to the mass meeting yes
terday. The longshoremen are going to win
this strike without violence.
No man could have handled the situa-
ton more sanely or better than Commissioner
Petit has DONE
From +. II. Petit, commissioner of public
safety:
The police today are entirely able to cope
with the strike situation. All the fuss has
been created either by those who are abso-
lutely ignorant of what the situation is or by
those who are deliberately trying to create
a disturbance for their own selfish purposes
The disturbance Monday night on the
waterfront was of course, unfortunate 1t is
unfortunate that there are radicals both
among the union men and the employers
who are willing to go beyond the bounds of
the law.
Il am confident tina 1.-THE longshoremen's
union as body is determined to conduct the
strike peacefully.
THE statement made at the Commercial
club yesterday by immigration Inspector
Fulton that early Monday information was
on hand of an attack to be made on the
Sperry dock shows its absolute foolishness on
the face of it,
IF this man knew what was going to hap
pen, why didn't he report it to the police?"

COMMISSION EXAMINES
 CAHTU OFFICIAL ACTS
(By B. F. Fly)

The long-expected commission, ap pointed by Carranza to examine all the official acts of Gov. Gen. EsteDan Cantu, of Lower California, passed through Yuma last night en route to Mexicali, present capital of that terri tory.
 The commission is composed of Sr Carlos Platt, of Hermosillo, ST. Maldo- nadO, of Nogales, and one other whose name I was unable to learn. It is presumed that they will begin their examination of the Cantu records to- day and rush the work to early con- pletion, after which 1t will be definite ly known whether Gov. Cantu is to remain in Lower California or be transferred to some other point in Mexico. It has been stated from ap- parently trustworthy sources that Gov. Cantu has been elevated to the posi- tion of brigadier general in the regular army, but no official notice of that kind has yet been given out
 Citizens on both sides of the line in this section are hoping that Gov. Cantu will be permitted to remain where he is, for it is very doubtful if Mexico can find man better equip ped for his position. He has given universal satisfaction and Lower Cal ifornia has prospered under his ad- ministration equally with Southern California. Carranza will be wise if he does not attempt to disturb Gov. Cantu.

, period of his life when it is most es- sential that he should not be put at a disadvantage compared to his less patriotic and more selfish competitors and rivals. I believe that universal service would be in every way bene- ficial to the state and that it wouic be almost or quite as beneficial from the standpoint of those who consider the interest of the state in time of ed in the welfare of the state in time of war
 'There should be military training, as part of a high school education which should include aIl-around train ing for citizenship. This traln1ng should begin in the schools in serious fashion at about the age of 16. Then, between the ages of Is and 21 there should be four or six months actual service in the field with the colors.
 'The larger Americanism demands that we insist that every immigrant who comes here shall become an American citizen and nothing else 1; if he shows that he still remains at heart more loyal to another land, let him be promptly returned to that land, and, if on the other hand, he shows that he is in good faith and whole heartedly an American, let him be treated as on a full equality with the native born. The larger Americanism demands that we native born also be whole-hearted in our allegiance to our country and our flag; that we refuse to be sundered from one another along lines of class or creed or sect or na tional origin; that we judge each American on his merits as a man; that we work for the well-being of oul | bodily selves but also for the we'll be ing of our spiritual selves; that we consider safety; but that we put honor and duty ahead of safety. Only thus | shall we prove our possession of the valor of righteousness. Only thus shall we stand square to all the winds of destiny, high of heart, the masters of our own souls, fit to be the fathers of a race of freemen, who shall make and shall keep this land all that il seemed to the prophetic vision of the mighty men who founded it and the mighty men who saved it.'
