ONE KILLED IN AUTO il
SMASH At MEDFORD

Mrs. 4. l.. Hurd. OF Hoquiam,
WASH. is dead. and Peter e. Stream,
also Of Hoquiam. WASH. is fatally
injured as the result Of an auto &C
cident at the "One-Mile" crossing
south Of Medford at l:30 yesterday
afternoon when two engines running
light proceeding to Medford from
Ashland ran down the car In which
they we're driving. smashed It to
kindling wood and carried the debris
600 feet before they finally came to
q stop. Mrs. Harvey Lord Of Ho-
quiam. the third member Of the par
ty. was sitting in the back seat Of
the car. and had a miraculous es-
cape with only minor injuries.
According to Mrs. Lord. who in
spite Of being dragged several hun
dred feet, hanging head downward
from the pilot Of the engine. was
sufficiently self-possessed to scram-
BILE to her feet and vigorously up
braid the engineer OF the locomotive
for not blowing his whistle. There
was no warning of an approaching
train whatever. The members Of the
party were enroute to San Fran.
cisco. where Mrs. Hurd was to meet
her son. who Is In training in an
aviation camp near that city. While
in Medford they lost the road and
were returning through the orchard
district to the Pacific highway when
the accident occurred. Mr.. Stream,
according to Mrs. Lord. was driving
slowly and keeping a sharp lookout
but an orchard at the right OF the
road prevented clear view of the
track. Their first view Of the engine
and the crash were practically stimuli
taneous. the fast moving locomo-
tives seeming to swoop silently upon
them.

Washington. June 19.-The sack
ing Of an American hospital at Ia
briz. Persia. and the seizure Of the
American and British consulates
there by invading Turkish troops is
reported to the state department by
the American minister at Teheran.
II the report is oncIally confirmed
the outrages may be considered an
act Of war and the question win be
settled as to whether the 0ttomans
should be formally listed as Ameri-
cas- enemies.
Late reports state that the Turks
sacked the hospital over the pro-
tests Of the Spanish consul repre-
senting the American interests and
in defiance Of the Spanish flag. II
is also reported that the hospital was
a Presbyterian missionary institu-
tion and that the last American had
left. as the situation had become
serious.

FEDERAL MISUNDERSTANDING To
Rundown NEW FORM Of Stacker

Portland. June 19.-Federal au.
thorities are getting ready to insti-
tute merciless campaign to run
down and punish new form OF
draft Stacker.
This new Stacker is the draft reg
istrant who was granted deferred
classi ification at the time OF his reg
istration, but whose status since has
80 changed that he no longer is en-
titled to exemption. yet who remains
silent about this change In the hope
II will be overlooked.
There are estimated to be hun
dreds OF such cases in Oregon, and
thousands Of them in the United
States. Suspicion particularly has
been directed against great many
OF the deferred classification grant
ed for Industrial reasons.
1t now appears that the status OF
many Of these men is not the same
as when they we're granted deferred
classif iflcation. Yet they have failed
to notify their local boards and con-
tinue to enjoy exemption from mill
tary service. In some cases. also,
the original classification was not
justified.
Many cases where deferred classi-
fication was granted for dependency
also have changed In status, but the
reglstrant has not notified his local
board.
With the time at hand when the
need for manpower Is so urgent that
every available man must either
work or fight." and when lower
classincations are to be revised in
order to make more men available
for Class I, this form Of evading mil
itary service Will not be tolerated.
