mitted that befores their departure from
England some Of his associates may have
felt miegfvings az to their reception.
Speaking with evident emotion. At q prf-
vate reception in his honor, Mr.. Balfour
declared. however. that "if any doubts ex-
listed they exist no more
I'VE never conceived or believed" he
added. that there would BE- such uni,
rersal outpouring OF sympathy and good
will as have marked every moment Of our
visit. Not one Of US had the smallest ex-
pectation Of what was to happen here.
The spontaneous exhibition Of welcome
nothing ever has moved them before"
Sees Dream Of His Life.
Mr.. Balfour in his speech said his
LIES dream had been a hope that ''the
union between the English speaking,
freedom loving branches Of the human
race would be drawn far closer than in
the past. and that all temporary causes
of differences would be seen in their
true proportions.
And that we should all realize" he
added, that the things wherein we
have differed in the past sink into alb
solute insignificance compared with
those vital agreements which at all
times. but never before as at the pres
ent, unite us in one great spiritual
whole" He added:
All the sentiments which I have
tried fmperfectly to express will re-
eeive double significance from the
fact that we are not merely sharing a
common political ideal in some specula-
tive fashion. but that all of us are COM
mitted to sacrifice everything we hold
most dear to carry those ideals into
practical execution. There will be a
bond between our peoples which moth
ing will ever be able to shake and
which I believe to be the securest guar
antee for the future peace. and freedom
Of the world"
Is Cheered by Thousands.
The entertainment here Of the British
mission has been somewhat less spectacu-
lar than that arranged for Rene Viviani
and Marshal Joffre. but their welcome has
been no less earnest and sincere. The
streets through which they have passed
have been filled with cheering thousands
they are regarded as allies in every
sense Of the word.
The appearance of Mr.. Balfour and his
colleagues at the luncheon of the cham
Der of commerce this afternoon was the
most important public event of the day.
and they spent the evening more as pri-
waite citizens than as the ENJOYS Of a
great nation.
Mr.. Balfour was entertained at a pri-
vate dinner at the home of Joseph H.
ChoAte He and the former United States
to Great Britain have been
warm friends for years. Other members
Of the mission dined at clubs or with
friends, in private.
Mr.. Balfour attended an entertainment
given at Carnegie Hall tonight for the
benefit of the British Red Cross, and was
sons and friends of England who had as
sembled there.

to its organization a small body of
men whom it has chosen to call It's
war council-not because they are to
counsel war, but because they are to
serve in this special war those .pur-
poses Of counsel which have become so
imperatively necessary. Their first
duty will be to raise great fund out
of which to draw the resources for the
performance of their duty, and I do
not believe that it will be necessary to
appeal to the American people to re-
spond to their call for funds, because
the heart of this country is in this war.
and If the heart Of the country is in

the gifts that will be poured out for

Automobile Men
Are Making Tractors

A significant sign of the times is
seen in the manner On which progressive
tractor manufacturers are drawing in
to their organizations, men who have
made regulations for themselves in the
automobile industry.
An example of this is the appoint
ment of Mr.. A. +. Knobloek as works
manager of the Cleveland Tractor Com
panv, makers of the crawler or track
LAYING tractor developed by Rollin H.
White Of White Motor Car and Motor
Truck fame.
Mr.. Knobloek was one of the pion-
GERS in the automobile field, having
been one of the founders Of the North
way Motors Co., some sixteen years
ago and associated in a managerial cap
acity with the General Motors Company,
Later he became identified with the
Cole Motor Company at Indianapolis as
Vice President and General Manager.
In commenting upon his new eonnee-
ton, Mr.. Knoblock remarked that he
believed that the right kind Of trae-
tor offered the greatest opportunity ot
ANYTHING in the manufacturing world
today, because it was fast becoming an
economic necessity which would revo-
lutionize agriculture as wen as prove
an important factor in industrial work.

Pennsylvania is not figured to win, even

fans remember, which halted Pitts

forced it to the limit. Likewise, it was
PENNSYLVANIA that downed the sturdy

Consequently, there are many who

The United States is in this war to

BUY LOCAL PRODUCTS
In following this advice, two results
are accomplished, both good ones.
In the first place, when you buy
Oregon products, you save transporta-

wise require cars, now so badly needed
for war purposes. On the other hand,
your use of Oregon products also per-
forms patriotic duty to your state
You are helping build up Oregon pay
rolls and that is a community move
ment that should carry strong appeal
to every one.
In building up our factories, you hep
create prosperity. and that means
property values will be better and taxes
win be lower.
When you spend money for goods
made elsewhere, it is nearly a total
loss to the state. When you buy Oregon
goods. the principal and profit both
remain here.
If more workers are added TO pay
rolls, the population increases and more
homes will be needed, and the money
finds its way back to circulation
quickly. And the grocer, baker, dentist
doctor. butcher; in fact all lines of en-
deavor have a chance at payroll money
because it eirculates locally.
Oregon has given most all of her at

tion must be given to building up Of
payrolls.
