Carload Of Paper VIII
Swell Red Cross Fund

1t is the little things that count, and
it is the little efforts of the hundreds
of housekeepers in the city that will
put a substantial sum in the treasury
of the Red Cross.
1t is just like this. Under the super
vision of Mrs. z. j. Riggs, efforts are
being made to collect a car load Of old
papers and magazines from the good
~housekeepers Of the city. A price has
already been offered for the paper and
NOW all that remains to be done is the
collection of every scrap of newspaper
and every magazine in the city.
But it is in the collecting wherein
the patriotic ladies have taken a big
Job on their hands. The housekeepers
are doubtless collecting their old papers
for next Saturday but to call on the
5000 homes for packages requires some
work. 1t was to district the city that
n meeting was held yesterday afternoon
when 40 prominent women discussed
the best plans and were assigned dis
tricts for the collecting next Saturday.
The good housekeepers are now re.
duested to first send in their house
number to the Commercial club, tele-
phone 500, with the information they
will have paper package tied up and
ready by 9 O'Clock Saturday morning.
This will help considerable. But those
who do not take the trouble, will also
be called on by the boy scouts and
others as will volunteer their services
saturday morning.
The present plan is to give a certain
womau a district to work on Saturday.

Blow Up Indiana Railroad
Bridges

Hammond, lind, Oct. 11.-Joseph
Savoy, 42, an American, arrested this
afternoon with three sticks of dyna-
mite in his possession, admitted, ae-
cording to the police, that he intended
to destroy railroad bridges throughout
northern Indiana.
Savoy said he formerly was a mem.
Der of the T.. w. w. but had severed his
connection with that organization. He
refused to give any motive for his al

Discovery of an automatic pistol in
a suitcase forwarded to Savoy from

discovery was made by Sam MeShef-
fiery, an employee of the Adams Elk.

The police were called and further
investigation of the contents of the
suitcase resulted in the discovery of
the dynamite. Savoy was arrested

other automatic was found when he
was arrested.

eral autos, each house in a district will

matters if housekeepers will tie their
packages and place them outside the

be taken to the warehouse on Ferry
street. just west of the w. G. 7. U. and

otto enough to loan them a few hours

ladies having charge of districts. And
boys and young men who have the
proper spirit are asked to telephone
the ladies and volunteer their services
Saturday morning. If all work togeth-
er. it will be a big thing for Willamette
Chapter, and also IN appreciation of
the efforts of the many women who are
volunteering their services.

phone numbers are as follows: Mrs.
Clifford Bown, 627; Mrs. Frank
Brown, III; Mrs. H. II. Olinger, 791;

Food Prices Will
Be Held In Check

Washington, Oct. 11.-Food prices
will be held in check by the sweeping
governmental control of staples an
nounced in President Wilson s procla-
nation today.
Herbert Hoover, who will put the
president IS order into force November
/, is not certain it will reduce prices to
the average consumer. He is determined
however, to control the "sickening in
dividual, sectional and class avarice''
backed by demand and threat of which
he says he receives daily evidence.
Stimulation of production is Hoover's
dominant thought.

The Salem committee, of which james
Elvin is chairman, assisted E, I. Barnes
John Bayne, W. VI. Hamilton, W. +.
Buehner, b. L. Sleeves and Chas. r.
Archard, met in the rooms of the Com
mercial club yesterday afternoon and
made a preliminary outline of its course
of activity during the food substitution
campaign and great enthusiasm was
manifest during the meeting on the part
of all the committee.
The Salem committee has charge of
all of the campaign work to be conduct
ed within the limits of Salem and it will
certainly have its hands full.In the first
pace, since the bulk Of the organiza-
ton work is to be carried on through
the medium of the school organization
the fourteen public and private edueaS
tional Institutions in the city were api
pointed among the seven members of
the committee, two schools each, and
these committeeman will visit the
schools assigned TO them on Tuesday,
October %, and address all Of the teach
ers and pupils upon the principles and
objects Of the food administration cam
paign.

of the Willamette University upon the
objects and necessities of the food sub
~stitution movement, at 1880 he will
confer with the Marion County Execu-
tive Committee and at 11:3O in the
morning he will take luncheon with all
of the Marion county committeeman at
the Royal Cafeteria and it is urged that
all business men and citizens who can
not possibly do so, attend this luncheon
and learn all they can about the move
ment.
AT 2 O'Clock in the afternoon, Satur-
day, Mr.. Plummer will address the
teachers of all of the public and private
schools of Salem, and those outside of
Salem who can attend, in the auditor
ium Of the High school and the public
is also invited and expected to turn out
at this meeting. Superintendent Smith
of the county schools has sent out let
tiers to all of the teachers of the coun-
ty, notifying them of this meeting and
urging all Who possibly can to avail
themselves OF the opportunity to post
up on the objects of the campaign and
the part they are expected to play in
the work. a
The big drive for signers of pledges
to conform to the regulations, as near
ly as possible within the circumstances
of the individual family, of the United
States Food Administration under the
direction of Herbert Hoover, will begin
on Monday, October %, and will close
on Saturday evening, October 81, when
it is expected that every family in Mar
ion county will have signed the pledge
cards and have the membership cards
displayed in their front windows. There
can be no reasonable excuse for the
man or woman of any family not sub
scribing to the pledge sent out by the
National Food Administration since it
is plainly stated hat no fees or dues
are to be paid and the regulations are
such that any family can conform to
them without s~tinting themselves in the
least and they will be helping most ma
terially to win the great world war for
liberty, peace and happiness.
County School Superintendent Smith,
chairman of the committee on school
districts, has sent out circular letters to
the teachers of the 100 school districts
of the county pointing out the objects
of the food substitutions campaign and
detailed instructions as to the
part they are expected to do in bringing
about a thorough organization through
out the county. Mrs. M. L. Patterson,
president of the Marion County Parent
Teachers Association has also sent out
a circular letter to all of the Parent
Teacher Associations in the county call
ing attention to the movement and the
need for united action and support of
the propaganda:
Saturday evening, October 10, Mr..
Plummer, of Portland, will address a
combined meeting of the Parent Teach
or Association and of citizens at the
Lincoln school, at s O'Clock and all who
can make arrangements are urged to
take advantage of this opportunity to
hear the gospel of food administration
and be prepared to sign the pledge of
patriotism and loyalty when the oppor-
offers. u

OF :.
FOOD UNDER WAY.
IN MARION COUNTY
People Are Not Expected to
Deny Themselves Neces-
sites Of Life

"While it is true that the national
food administration campaign is along
the line of conservation it is more es.
~sentially a campaign of substitution in
that the administration does not re-
quest or expect the people of the Unit
ed States to deny themselves the nee
e~ssaries of life but only asks them to
adopt certain foods of which there IS
an abundance in tine country as a sub
stitute for tine w,eat, pork, beef, dairy
products and srgar~whieh are so neecs-
sary for export to feed our soldiers IN
training and IN France as well as the
soldiers of on, %allies, fighting for llb-
erty in the trenches. and their families
who are suffering from a shortage OF
foods" declared Chairman Frew w.
Steusloff, of the Marion County Execu-
tive Committee of the Federal Food Ad-
ministration for Oregon.
''The movement is one of the con
servation insofar as the people are ask
ed to be saving in the consumption of
beef, pork, wheat, butter, milk and
sugar, but it is more in the nature of
substitution and the word substitute
should be given prominence and EN-
phasis in preference to conservation,
in order to dispel the mistaken idea that
Uncle Sam is asking his people to starye.
themselves in order that someone else
might live. Herbert Hoover has said
that food viii win the war; and, while
thousands of young men and older men.
are denied the privilege of taking up
arms in support of the cause of liberty
and democracy, they may still be in
the active service of the country by
making it possible for the United States
to furnish the bread, meat, sugar and
other essentials to provide food for our
own boys, who are soon to take to the
trenches, and the valiant soldiers of the
allied nations.
"The campaign Of the National Food
Administration is just as important as
that for the raising of funds for the
conduct of TIE war under the Liberty
loans, in fact it is more important, for
as Napolean once said, "A soldier can
not fight on an empty stomach, stands
just as true today as it did during the
great French revolution and the man
and woman who stands behind the Food
Administration in working out the sys-
tenn of rationing the nation to furnish
the food for carrying on the war for
the perpetuation of freedom and demoe-
racy is just as much of a patriot as
