ment, the amount of insurance applied

million dollars in a single day.
The law provides that soldiers sail.
ors, marines and nurses in active SER
vice may obtain from the government
life insurance in amounts not exceed
ing $4,000 at premium rates ranging
from 65 cents a month at the age Of Il
years, TO So. 10 month at the age Of
81 years, for each 81, 600 Of insurance.
One of the primary objects of this
law is to lessen the tremendous burden
of pensions which has followed as q
consequence of all American wars.
1t is evident that the administration

VOLUNTEERS

After next Saturday volunteering for
the army will automatically cease, and
thereafter the fighting land forces of
the United States will be organized
and trained from the great body of
eligibles under the selective draft law.
But the United States government
will still maintain one of the greatest
volunteer organizations ever in exist
ence-the national American Red Cross
society, the humanitarian arm of our
nation. brought into being not only to
aid the sick and bear relief to the
wounded of our army and navy and
carry to them as many as possible of
the comforts of life, but also to ameli-
crate the suffering, resulting from
catastrophe, in civil life.
The war is not going to be won al
together by the soldier on the field of
battle. The task calls for the support
OF all. Though men and women are
unable to actively affiliate with any
other branch of the government SER
vice, they can, and should, volunteer
their membership in the Red Cross.
The campaign for Red Cross men,
bers will be waged nation wide all
next week. Hood River county has al
ready made a creditable and enviable
record for Red Cross work, and that is
all the more reason why Hood River
county should be the first to report
full membership of every adult man
and woman in the county early next
week. Let everybody pull together
and we can do it. You who know the
details of the campaign preach it every
minute of the day. All that is needed
is that the ball just be started to roll
ing.
Join the Red Cross-all you need is
dollar and heart.

GOOD ROADS ARE
LIBERTY ROADS

Good roads should no longer be con
sidered as local matter" says ]. W.
Anderson. local Oldsmobile distributor.
EVERY stretch Of new road has q di-
rect bearing on the outcome of the
war. Every stretch Of new road will
have great deal to do with the prog
ress and prosperity Of our United
States after the wars duration.
''The automobile Is recognized as an
economic need of the time. Automo-
bile drivers are without question the
most enthusiastic about good roads,
but every thinking person will quickly
recognize that good roads are beneficial
and necessary to the whole country.
"Mr. Hoover claims that food will
win the war. We believe his statment
true, but there is a powerfully big
question involved in the transportation
of the food. The government, it is
known, is manufacturing ammunition,
guns Of all kinds, air ships, subma-
rines. This all means transportation
problem. And after the war, supplies
Of all kinds. food, building material,
almost everything one can think OF
will need to cross the country to ships
that will carry it across the sea. The
railroads are inadequate to meet this
demand and carry on the work of our
own country at the same time. We
already have thousands and thousands
of automobiles but lack the good roads
that would make that method Of trans
portation efficient"

The apple growers of Hood
River Valley have been talk
ing Motor Trucks morning,
noon and night during the past
several weeks, for the larger
percentage of the apple crop
was moved to storage and as
sembling warehouses on trucks
and therefore apple growers
are ready, we believe, to listen
to sensible, sane and unexag-
gerated Truck talks.
And that leads us to an
nounce that we have been do
ing some Truck thinking and
that thinking has lead to our
talking. The past Falls expe-
rience of orchardists is a pretty
safe indication to US that in
the future most of the apples
of the Hood River Valley are
going to be handled by Motor
Trucks. Not only apples but
most all other freight. Any
kind of a standard Motor
Truck saves the operator time
