the recent fire at Waeonda, on the w.
Al Jones farm, where Frank Matthes

Will Ahlgrens grain. The fire caught
from the engine and broke out on top
of a stack.
The threshing crew had made quick
use of water in the water tank and en-
gine, without controlling it, when the
telepone and automobiles landed the
neighborhood ON the scene. Ten auto
loads of water carried in the milk cans
from Russels and Thurman's dairies
and the swift action of 25 men, and the
many women who pumped the water
from Ahlgren s well after Russell s
windmill tank was emptied, saved most
Of the crop.

wit forks, dipped them on water. In
tlic excitement all had forgotten the
engine until Mrs. Matthes appeared on
the scene repor; ing that the water Yves

Treachery to Employers Was

Chicago, Oct. "A nationwide plot

ed in the evidence upon which one hun

New York, Oct. 2.--Germany s sub
marine menace is now being concentrat-
ed against American military supply
ships. A German submarine base has
probably been established off the
French coast in the American transport
line. There is no real decrease in total
ally submarine sinkings. America can
only fulfill Ter gigantic army require
ments in France by depending on her
own shipping and making the issue
with Germany personal.
This is the Interpretation of the sub
marine situation today as expressed in
an exclusive interview with the United
Press by Lord Northcliffe, head of the
British war mission and the most con
struetive war critic any belligerent ma
tion has produced.
"The most urgent news that has
crossed the Atlantic since arrived in
this country at the beginning of June, "
Lord Northcliffe said, is the official
statement of Sir Joseph Maclay, the
British controller of shipping, to the
effect that unless the United States
faces the shipping problem and con-
struets millions of tons of shipping an
rually the military efforts of the Unit
ed States will be crippled from the
start
fThis is the solemn warning Of Sir
Joseph himself. 1t has passed the cen
sor and is the first real note of alarm

ALLIES EPARINC
FOR SEA OFFENSIVE
DURING COMING YEAR
This Is Believed to Be Reason
for British Campaign
In Belgium

Washington, Oct. 2.-The allies, with
americas S aid, are likely next year to
.Iake the offensive on the seas.
q The deduction is drawn in EXPERT
quarters here today as the result of
recent allied military operations. With
England striking at the rail arteries
leading to Germany's Ostend and Zee
brugge bases, such an offensive, it is
felt, could be used in telling fashion
later.
Much will depend, however, upon the
successes England meets in her Chemin
road operations. While she has warded
off counter attacks SO far, it is ques-
tiOn in many military minds whether
she will be able to accomplish before
winter the cutting of the rail arteries.
Even if she does cut these lines, Ger
many still can feed the nests from
which her submarines enanate.
But, if England can accomplish a
fierce blow at the communication
lines she has done much to cripple the
effectiveness of Germany S U-boat
game. Then, with the backing of pow
erful ships, she may move in on a
stranghng process and stamp out the
home of the ocean pests, though she
must still maintain a mighty land
force to back the sea operations.
Advocates of stronger naval poll
ey are still active in their urgings
and feel that the way things shape up
on the northern end Of the western
front now is argument for their pro
posals.

Hope Of Interesting Leaders
In Peace Proposals Passed
for Present
(By John H. Hearley)

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Rome, Oct. Pope Benedict is ap-
parently seeking support of his peace
plans from the people of belligerent ma
tions, since his appeal to the rulers has
so far been ineffective. Direct approval
by the holy father of certain socialistic
aims was attributed to him in two
separate statements today.
The greatest significance was attrib-
uted to an editorial in the Observatore
Romano, a newspaper frequently regard
ed as the Vatican's s official organ, and
which it was believed was approved by
the pope.
The editorial declared the holy see
"was in agreement with the socialists
of Italy and elsewhere insofar as they
were seeking to safeguard democratic
liberty and protect constitutional rights
by legal means. "
Those who professed to see the pope
taking the radical step of sympathizing
with socialistic ideals read the Obser-
vatore Romano s comment in connection

WILLAMETTE OPENS
WITH ATTENDANCE
FULLY AT NORMAL
Upper Classes Depleted by
War, But Freshmen Are
Numerous

willamette University opened today
with an enrolment equal to any pre-
vious year as Tar as the ranks of the
freshmen are concerned.
The upper classes have lost the major
portion of their men, but an increased
number of students in the other de-
partments will balance the number
with last years There are twenty five
seniors at present; thirty five juniors,
forty two sophomores and ninety five
freshmen.
The large number in the latter class
is attributed to the wide advertising
given the university by the Glee club s
1900 mile trip, and the efficient SER
vice of President Doney and DR.. Rich
ards, the secretary of education. Their
messages joined with those of other
great educators have placed special en-
phasis on the country's s need Of highly
trained men.
Sixty Music Pupils
The enrolment in the school Of music
numbers go. Six pianos were purchased
this summer for use in this department
With the aid Of two new instructors,
the school bids fair to have a pros
porous year.
Mrs. A. A. Schramm, formerly Luz
cile Kuntz, is assistant instructor in
piano. She is graduate of VILLAIN
ette university and also from the VIII
lamette school of music.
New Violin Instructor
The instruction in violin is this year
in the hands of Prof. Henry L. Bittman
of Portland. He spent five years as a
student in the Leipsic conservatory,
one year with Henry Sehrad-
rieck and FIR. Hermann. The eminent
Henri Petri, was his instruc-
tor for four years, as was also Richard
Hoffman At Brussels he studied under
the renowned Ysaye. Two years were
spent at Frankfort with Hugo Her
mann.
Since returning to America, Prof.
Bettman has been professor for five
years at the King conservatory, San
Jose. Cal, for five years at the Uni
versity of the Pacific, San Jose, Cal,
and for one year at the Columbia Col
