THROWING RUSSIA
AGAINST AMERICA

Petrograd. May l+.--Germany's
propaganda is now seeking 10 dis
tort Americas position in the eyes Of
new Russia,
What TO an American are some
astonishingly patent falsehoods OF
the position which the United States
has assumed are being given daily
publication in Russian newspapers.
Today. all Petrograd newspapers fea-
tured u report from Paris that the
Washington government is censor
ing all press dispatches from Stock
holm. relating to the June socialists
peace meeting"
The animus behind such reports is
plainly pro-German. Germany is
bringing every effort to make the
Stockholm pro-German conference OF
socialists a success. TO achieve a for
midable movement for "a separate
peace between Russia and Germany

.JOFFRE CONFERS
ON FINAL PLANS

Washington. May l4.--Final plans
for sending an American fighting
force to France were discussed at a
two-hour conference between Marshal
Joffre. members OF his stan and Sec
rectary OF War Baker and Major Gen
eral Hugh l.. Scott today.
At the conclusion. Baker author
lied this statement;
The visit OF Marshal Jonre and
his stan was for a general summing
mp OF conferences going on with our
experts" Baker would not add TO
this statement

GERMAN LOSSES
WERE ENORMOUS

With the French Armies in the
Field, May l4.-Germany lost 2OO.-
900 men in killed, wounded and cap
tured in the period from April ls to
May on the French front alone. In
the two weeks since May !, II was es>
timated today. her additional losses
have been proportionately greater
even than this staggering mortality.
The figures on which these estimates
are based are those OF the French
headquarters. The totals may be
much more.
Many German divisions have been
practically wiped out. The Ninth
Bavarian reserve division, pumber'
ing 1000 in its battle array, lost
1883 in prisoners alone. which. ac-
cording to established scientific mill
tary statistics, means minimum OF
three thousand killed and wounded.
This means the division lost three
fourths OF It's entire number OF It's
electives.

MORE CHICKENS

In at least two cities Of the state,
the food supply problem is attacked
from another of its many sides. Free
incubator service is provided for
those who have eggs and will raise
chickens If hatehed out for them.
In Eugene the individuals furnish
the eggs. the state poultry associa-
ton supplies the incubator and the
Chamber Of Commerce attends to
the Matching.
In Medford the plan is under OPP
Grafton in the post Office with one OF
Uncle Sans men in charge. Indi-
viduals bring in their eggs and later
take away their two-day-old chicks.
Here is chance for some enterpris-
ing local citizen TO add a little to
the food supply. Incubators can be
rented. eggs are here aplenty and
the Chamber OF Commerce can fur.
nish the room and probably the care

MORE ABOUT ROGUE

The following letter. appearing in
the current MAY 12) issue OF the
Oregon Voter. from the pen OF San

will be Of interest to local fisher

there are two sides to the question;

from southern Oregon to firms here
on the subject. which no doubt caus.
ed the reference in your article to
the eff; that the Chamber OF Com
merce was mentioned in the dis
patches from Salem.
In preparing the Rogue river fish
bill referendum. was instructed
that the Chamber Of Commerce
would sign the petition. and this was
stated - the secreta =; ~ state, and
the petition was sent to him on that
basis. He apparently advised the re-
porters so.
However, the board thought it
best not TO do so, and in this policy
l heartily concur.
When the Chamber decided not
TO enter into this matter Of course
its name did not go on the petition.
The advocates Of the bill directed
against commercial fishing are fly
fishermen OF Jackson county. !
think none OF those who lobbied at
the legislature have been to the
mouth OF the river. and they are will
ing to sacrifice both the Josephine
commercial fishing and all CONNER
cial fishing to fly fishing. but the
facts are that last season the ny
fishing was better in Josephine coun-
I ty than Il has ever been. but poor in
Jackson county. on account Of the
dams and the easy accessibility tc

WHY BELGIUM!

There is much food for thought in
the suggestion that comes across the
waters to the effect that the allied
nations have decided to place Euro
pean Turkey and the Dardanelles
under the control Of Belgium. What
does this determination mean as re-
spects Russia? How do the allies
plan to recompense that nation for
her war sacrifices? Or are they
counting her out of the game?
Belgium's only colonial expert
ment-the Congo-has not redown-
ed to her glory. But possibly this
was due to the personal avarice OF
Leopold, father of the present Bel
gian king.
II by putting a small nation in
charge at this all important water
way, the riyalries that have kept the
chancellories OF Europe busy for
many years can be swept away. il
will be a splendid move. But the
point OF greatest interest just now
lies in the facts and thoughts be,
hind the decision and its announce
ment Just now when the Russian sit
uation is SO extremely critical.

CHANGE OF TUNE

The brewers and distillers have
changed their tune. Heretofore. as
an argument for the maintenance OF
their business. they have pointed to
the large share OF the farmers pro.
duce which their business provided
with a market. Now. with lusty
demand for every bushel OF grain
possible to feed armies in the field
they are harping on the insignifi-
cance OF their grain consumption
Circumstances may alter cases but
not facts.
