AUTOS USED IN CON-
STRUCTION WORK

In addition to their efficiency in
passenger service over the Valley
route, the Mt. Hood Railroad Co. has
found gasoline rail automobiles more
effective and cheaper of operation
when used in construction work than
steam driven trains. The Valley line
was recently confronted with bad
place in its right of way by the me-
anderings of small stream, making
marsh over which the road was carried
on trestle. 1t was decided to fill Sin
the trestle and by the embankment
change the course of the little creek.
One of the cOmpany's two rail autos
and four push cars were put into COM
mission, and in ten days time. con-
sidered a record by the lines manage
ment, the work was complete.

Frozen JOnathanS Are Still Fine

As a proof that apples, if allowed
to thaw thoroughly before they are
handled, are not injured in the least
by freezing, J. C. Porter, member of
the board of directors of the Associa-
tion, Tuesday presented his fellow di-
rectorate members with Jonathans of
the 1916 crop that are still in perfect
condition, despite the fact that they
were frozen three different times last
fall and winter.
"The fruit" says Mr.. Porter, "was
overlooked and left on a back porch.
Several boxes were left there. and
while as usual thing the Jonathans, a
fall variety, are all consumed by the
last part of November, sold some of
my stock, accidentally left over, for
fancy prices about month ago."

RED CROSS APPEALS TO
 THE BELLlGERENT POWERS
To Agree Upon Some Method of Ex
 changing Prisoners of War.

Berne, Switzerland, May 3. via Par is, 3.30 D. m.-The internatiOna Red appeal to the belligerent powers to agree upon some method of exclarg- ing prisoners of war in the interests of the moral and physical welfare of the millions of men in captivity.
 The appeal declares that in certain countries the death rate is alarming suggesting that the constitutions of the prisoners have been unable to withstand the privations.
 The economic conditions have grown so bad, the appeal deelares, that the countries interested must have their attention called to the necessity of re- turning to their homes all men still able to serve their communities. It points out that since prisoners of war in different countries have been er- ployed in agricultural work there should be no objection to an exchange that would permit them to work in their own countries.

EARL BURROWS STATEMENT
 OF WAR CONDITIONS
Declares Enemies of Entente Are Re-
 treating on All War Fronts.

London, May 3, ITO p. m.-Address- ing the Primrose league in London to- day. Earl Curzon of Kedleston, mem Der Of the war council, said there was no military front in the world wide war where at the present moment the enemy was not a retreating force.
 The speaker said he recognized the submarine menace to be formidable, but that in its calculations the cabinet had made allowance for a wastage in shipping greater than that which had already taken place. He did not thinl. personally that the submarines would diminish shipping to such an extent as to affect the ultimate issue of the war.
 T am convinced the Germans are wrong in their estimate of the results of their submarine warfare" Earl CCurzon continued. They will not succeed in starving England or her allies into surrender.
 They may drive us to compulsory rationing. I think we ought to adopt rationing. but there is not the slightest cause for panic or alarm
 Referring to the entry into the war of the United States, he declared: "It may not be very long before their armed forces are seen upon the contI- nent."
 We shall find, therefore, that we have secured in America a whole hearted, sincere and powerful ally who entered the war for a victory to man. kind and who will not desist until they have secured it.

 London, May 3.-Ffshting of terrible the main points of the British attack. says Reuters correspondent at British headquarters. The battling" he adds. "has been many in places of ding dong order, which renders it extremely difh- cult to define the situation. The most conspicuous gains have been or the Hanks of the long front, while towards the center. up the valley of the Scarpe, we have made less progress, owing to the intensity of concealed machine gun fire.
 Despite the opposition of massed German forces, the Canadian troops took Fresnoy.
 The Germans are fighting with des- perate obstinacy.
 Machine guns were perched in three at various heights, while lines of uncut wire were discovered in gullies which concealed them fro indirect ob- servation as we'll as from the search ing effect of our barrage. so that the attack upon Oppy amounted to little more than a reconnaissance in force, and our troops withdrew to enable the gunners to concentrate their fire upon the newly discovered obstacles.
 South of the Sensee the battle de- veloped into a most serious movement, our troops reaching Cherisy. Converg- ing tactics upon Reincourt carried our advance across the Hindenburg line and threaten to cut off the garrison at Bullecourt- The garrison was report ed to have been captured, but the re- port was not confirmed"

MT. Gompe1-s indignantly denied this.
 MT. Gompers also denied imputa- tions that he had ill-feeing against Herman SchuIteis and Henry B. Mar tin, two other defendants with whom he said, he warned Buchanan not to associate.
