Lumber Priority Order
Hurts Coast blilImen

Portland, Or. April 9.-Issuance by
the government of a new lumber prl-
oritv order caused protests among
northwest lumbermen today.
The order requires that one car OF
government lumber must be moved to
every two of commercial lumber. since
government contracts obtained in the
past have ~equalled only 20 per cent OF
the output of the mills, the lumbermen
say this works an injustice.
Millmen claim their great trouble
has been that commercial lumber has
been piling up on account Of car short
age. This priority order will hurt rath'
er than help them, they say.

Young Rumely had not been back
m America more than a few months
before he set on foot his first venture
in the introduction of German kultur
into his native land. This was the
establishment of school for boys
which had for its principle and
avowed purpose the training of rich

and lords of the land.
In s Germany he hid seen and
studied at first hand the most highly
socialized nation on the face Of the
globe. He had seen country with
every acre of tillable land under cul-
tivation; a nation ruled by a govern
ing class of landed proprietors whose
vast estates were titled for them by
patient peasants and toiling teaan:
farmers. America had no such class
OF junkers. There were schools in
plenty to teach the trades and train
boys into artisans. but there were nc
schools designed to take the boy
destined to inherit the control of big
business and manufacturing enter

next and the British the highest.
When they reached an important
highway the American commander
dived. Every American followed,
then the French and then the
British.
Every machine emptied its guns
into miles of wagons and the fields
to which the Germans scuttled.
"Time and time again the Ameri-
cans returned for ammunition.
Some of them made FIVE flights in
