PENDLETON BOY NOW
ON WAY TO FRANCE
CHARLES SCHAAII is SERGEANT
AND CAN MANAGE MACHINE
IN AIR.
Declares Every One Is Happy That
They Arc So Soon TO see Foreign
Service.

One of the first of the Pendleton
boys to reach France will be Charles
Schaal, who was formerly employed
at the Gadwa harness shop and who
enlisted in the aero service last May.
1t is believed that he is on the high
seas now EN- route to France. Since
enlisting he has been made a SER
geant and has already learned how
10 manage a machine in the air.
Writing from Dayton, Ohio. to w. l.
Gadwa, he says in part:
We leave Dayton tomorrow even
ing on the first leg of our journey to
France. We go from here to Minneo-
la, N. Y. and / suppose we will be
there for week or 10 days before
sailing for France.
I'VE are awful busy and we are all
torn up. Our barracks look like a
cyclone had struck it. Everybody is
happy to think that we are about to
leave for foreign service. Well ]
feel very proud to think that l am
about the first of Pendleton boys to
have the honor to go across.
They gave all the boys that did
not want to go across II chance to
transfer to other squadrons and about
40 of the boys transferred out of the
18th. but their places were soon ta-
ken by others who wanted to go. Well
l had very good thing offered me it
l would STAY as l had full charge of
the commissary, including the paper
work also and Lieutenant Farrell
wanted me to stay but l couldn't see
it that way. You know 1 am not
Stacker and I also P.aven't any yellow
in my back.
4 received a very handsome iden-
tification card from the Grand Lodge
X. of p. and l certainly feel very
proud of it. In regard to whom they
would notify in case that l was hurt,
you are named as my beneficiary. 1
suppose they will notify you in case
anything happens to me. OF course
L have made Edna an allotment of
S25 a month as my sister and l sup
pose they will also notify her.
well, we boys in the service are
doing all that we can besides giving
our services and offering our lives
to our country. We have subscribed
about 500 worth of Liberty Bonds for
every man in this field. That is we
have taken $25O,OO0 worth of bonds.
I took out a $50 bond myself. You
can pay for them soEnuch per month
and it is not much, and besides II
helps out.
yes, the f. o. sent me those pa
pers. l received them Monday and
it certainly made me wish to be back
in Pendleton. l do wish that 1 could
see all of you again before going but
1 didn't even get to see my own reIa-
tives here in Ohio.
Wishing yOu the best of success
and hoping to be with you again some
day, But Not Until we Have Downed
the Kaiser.
Your friend and brother,

STATE ACTION is VINDI-
CATEaD

~ HE success of the suf.
VI frage cause in New York
is the clearest possible
Vindication of President Will
sons stand for settlement of
this subject by the states. When
a state like New York, the cita-
del of reaction, can be carried
by the suffragists, acting along
decent and constitutional lines
there is no excuse whatever for
the lawlessneSs carried on by
the picketers at Washington. 1t
may be timely to recall that the
victory in New York was not
won by the picket brigade but
by the regulation suffrage or
ganization of which DR.. Anna
Howard Shaw is leader. These
women recently went to Presi-
dent Wilson in dignified and
peaceful manner to ask his en-
dorsement of their fight in New
York. He gave such an en-
dorsement just as he did two
years ago when the fight in
New Jersey was on.
Whenever the women of any
state really want equal suf-
frage they may obtain it. Un-
less they want the ballot it is
needless to give it to them.
Therefore the logic in state ac-
ton.

THERE is STILL ROOM FOR
ETHICAL ADVANCEMENT.

~ HE East Oregonian has
VI been criticised as unethi-
cal by its local competi-
tor for failing to boost the
scheduled picketer meeting
last week. The answer is that
if necessary this paper would
rather be unethical than unpa-
triotic in war time. However,
it happens that no news was
suppressed for the reason no
meeting was held and the East
Oregonion by virtue of better
advance information on that
subject was able to avoid the
mistake of its now crawfishing
rival. 1t is interesting to note,
however, that the Tribune is
giving consideration to news
paper ethics. In time it may
learn it is not good journalism

1T MIGHT HAVE BEEN
WORSE.

~ HE statement by Mayor
VI elect Hylan makes it
plain that his victory can
not be construed as an anti-war
triumph for Hylan places him
self squarely behind the presi-
dent ready to fight the war to
the finish.
The facts are that the New
York mayoralty contest was
decided chiefly on local issues.
Gotham had a good mayor for
four years and he made numer-
Gus enemies. He clamped
down the lid in places where
the lid had not been tight be-
fore. He set up efficiency
where patronage had been the
order previously. His course
turned large elements of the
people against him but even at
that he would doubtless have
won in a straight-up fight. But
Tammany this time faced a di-
vided foe with many fearful
lest Hillquist might slip into
office unawares. With such
people it was anything to beat
the socialist and Hylan receiv-
ed many votes on the theory
he was the surest man to stop
Hillquist..
The New York result is bad
but it could have been worse.

"Norwegians coming to the United

"The Norwegian in America is Am

ment of ideas necessary. He promptly
fits into things in his adopted coun-
try"

"This Is a Scientists War;"
Says Prof. G. Stanley Hall

Worcester, Mass, May s1.-(speciaD
This is pre-eminently q war Of
scientists"
So says DR.. G. Stanley Hall, one of
the most famous of the pure scien-
tists OF America, professor of psy-
chology and president of Clark uni
versity.
THE wars greatest battles have
been fought. not on the Marine or at
Arras or Verdun," he declared recently.
but in the universities and labora-
tories of Europe and America. Joffre.
Hindenburg and Jellicoe have not had
so great a part in it's direction as
have the Wright brothers, Marconi and
simon Lake; and these gentlemen in
turn were dependent upon those anon
ymous generals OF modern warfare,
the pure scientists who laboriously
worked out the principles of physics
and mechanics upon which all their in
ventions were. based. More and more
1t has become apparent that the deci-
sive factor in war today Is the ability
to mobilize the nations knowledge. If
democracy is to win this world war
against autocracy it must press into
Its service not only our Edisons and
Burbanks and Fords, but the masters
of many seemingly abstract sciences
whose practical application has hith-
erto been almost overlooked. There
are some vital problems of war which
only the Psychologists can solve.
Psychology Produces Results.
ut is evident that applied psychol-
ogy has produced results in this war
which 1t was never possible to attain
before. Men have endured more, they
have shown more heroism and daring
and have submitted to more punish
:nent than in any previous war. No
such slaughter would have been posi-
BILE in former wars without provoking
n panic. This has unquestionably
been due to the system of psychology
cal selection, not only for the various
grades Of service but for special ac-
tivities within each grade.
Our country may as well think of
going to war without first-c class mill
tary equipment as without a know
ledge of applied psychology. The
