CANCELLED STAMPS
ARE OF NO USE THE
RED CROSS STATES
Denies Story That Dyes
Can be Extracted; Thou
sands Are Destroyed.

Somehow or other story that the
Red Cross wants cancelled postage
stamps so that the dye may be eN-
tracted from them has been circulated
all over the nation and good many
Pendleton people have been asked to
save their stamps. The Red Cross
has denied that it wants cancelled
stamps, declaring the story originated
from some unknown source and with
out any foundation in fact.
Recently the Washington head
quarters of the Red Cross sent out a
story stating that cancelled stamps
were being received by the thousands
from people whose intentions were
good but who had been misntormed.
The stamps. are quite worthless to
the Red Cross and are only destroy
ed when received.
The story gained wide prevalence
in this city even to the spreading Of
a slogan that "a thousand cancelled
stamps will keep a Belgian baby so
many months

LIQUID FIRE ATTACK ON AMERICAN

WHEAT STANDARDS MODIFIED,
GOVERNMENT MAKES NEW RULES
Grainmen and Farmers to be
Consulted Before Final
Action is Taken.

WASHINGTON, March S.--New and
less exacting wheat standards have
been adopted by the government. Ten
tative revlsions announced by the de-
partment of agriculture win be laid
before grainmen and farmers before
final action is taken. Five meetings
viii be held in the wheat centers. one
at Spokane. March 18th! Price fixing
and use of wheat substitutes will
permit relaxation of former gradings
which many held were too stern.
Northwest farmers have long been
advocating changes in grading re-
qulrements, alleging the millers, under
the present standards. bought wheat
classed as low grade and milled it in
to flour equalling the higher grades Of
wheat. They say grading standards
reduced their profits from mixed
grains, and those high in moisture
content. Bakeries, with liberty bread
are less concerned about the color and
texture of bread and millers are not
required to distinguish between the
grades so minutely. The bureau of
crop estimates states that hundred
eleven million bushels, or seventeen
per cent Of the 1917 wheat crop was
on the farms March first.

at 2:O5 p. IN. but it was well toward
six when the train rolled into the sta
tion.
Rolls of blankets and small pack
ages were thrown upon a truck and
the prisoners alighted handcuffed in
pairs. and took positions standing up
on two trucks waiting to convey them
to the county Jail. Six officers who
had come with the aggregation from
Seattle andrthe local officers stepped
upon the trucks and escorted them to
the county prison. In alighting from
the train there was little opportunity
for disorder and but a few remarks
were heard from the prisoners. One
man said very loud and insolently:
Huh! some crowd to see us get in"
The spectators were undemonstrative.
Nearly every man under arrest had a
package in the hand which was un.
manacled. one had a mandolin. As
the party moved Through the streets
the men sang "Hold the Fort for We
Are Coming" the tune being taken
from the old familiar song, but the
words being of an l. w w. swan va
