BETWEEN THE DEVIL
AND DEEP BLUE SEA

PORTLAND - The wise young
man in Oregon has his little green
registration card handy when he
strolls down the street with
cigar or cigarette in his mouth,
Jack Gibson overlooked this little
matter. Therefore, he is deep in
trouble today.
If Gibson proves to the satisfac-
ton of the authorities that he is
under 21-which he contends-he
will be prosecuted under the state
anti-cigarette law.
If he cannot establish his age
as over 81, he will be prosecuted
by the federal authorities on a
charge of failing to register.
Gibson is in trouble-very deep,
In fact-and no matter how he
wiggles he'll be unable to get out

Fred W. Witham Sets Forth the OBJ

Fred w. Witham northwest assis-

day in the interest of the great cam
paign to be launched in all parts OF
the nation next week After confer
ring with Mayor Truitt, Dean Eldridge
and other leading men of the COM
munity Mr.. Witham left for Spokane
this afternoon to reach Coeur

Big Men at Work.
Mr. Witham is nj deadly earnest III
the matter of stirring the country to
the absolute necessity of raising this
fund. A number of the leading men
of the nation have taken hold of the
work. J. P. Morgan is in the trenches
in New York working as captain of
one of the teams and Cleveland Dodge
has already subscribed $1,000,000.
Why the Red Cross Move2
''The leading men in every communi-
ty must take hold of this work." Mr..
Witham said. "This is just as true
of Moscow as of every other city and
town. The money is needed now.
There is no time to wait. Bullets will
not wait on dollars. The man who
offers his all, his life, on the battle
field must not be left to suffer and die
through the Indifference of the folks
at home"
Work to Be Done.
In urging the necessity for united
and energetic work Mr.. Witham said
among other things:
why does the government not IL
nance this relief work? The question
is often asked The American Red
Cross is ranked as neutral as long |
as it is maintained by private sub
scriptions. The administration of the
the national naval and military oper- /
ations. Relief work, also, must cut red |
tape, must be promptly ready for ev-
cry emergency, must be governed by
principles and quick de-
cisions and must not be hampered by
the restrictions of governmental ma
chinery. At the same time the Red
Cross is the only relief agency form
ally authorized by the government.
It's head is the president Of the United
States It's accounts are audited by
the war department. 1t is chartered
by congress. President Wilson de-
clares:
"a large, we'll organized and effic

both patriotic and humane service
that is rendered by every citizen who
becomes a member of the American
Red Cross"
"In this world war some must give {
their lives, others their money. No
patriot at home could bear to think {
that patriot bled to death on the bat

contribute his dollar to the Red Cross. /

JUST A FEW RE-

Homes Conspicuous Where Food
Administration Cards Are Not

Gives Out Report Cards.

The Committee on Food Conserva-
ton Pledge Cards report their work as
very successful. They only reported a
few incidents where the house holders
refused to sign the pledge. One woman
refused to sign the first time and after
reconsidering the matter she signed the
pledge and Is now one of the most en-
thusiastic "Hooverizers" In town. The
homes where the Food Administration
Cards are not In evidence are rather
conspicuous, because 1t shows either a
lack of co operation with the Govern.
ment in helping to win the war, or
case of ignorance, SO those who have
signed the pledge and haven't their
membership card where they can be
seen, owe 1t to themselves to bring
them to light.
The members Of the Methodist church
have been given report cards on which
they are to report how many meatless,
wheatless and wasteless meals they
have had during the week. These cards
will be given out for nine consecutive
weeks and 1t is done merely for the
Committees of the National Food Adj
ministration Bureau to determine how
far the people are complying with the
request for saving food.

have done their best to relieve the
situation. However, the onward sweep
Of workmen has defied all efforts to-
ward proper housing.
The use Of beds In eight-hour shifts
has been resorted to in such cities as
Youngstown, o.; Erie, Pa; Bridgeport,

cities were crowded even before the
