President Saves

The youngest of the four was but

Two Of the soldiers were granted full
ard unconditional pardon and the SEN
tciees Of the two others were confirmed
but commuted to three years Of penal
servitude at Fort Leavenworth.
privates Forest d. Sebastian and jeff
Cook were pardoned and PrivMhs liar
Ledowcn and Stanley G. Fishback will
be sent TO Leavenworth.
In view Of their extreme youth and
tho fact that their offenses seem wholly
free from disloyalty and conscious dis
regard Of duty,v the president made his
rulrg Tor Sebastian snd Cook.
Although it was mol mentioned which
two Of the four soldiers slept at theii
posts, tins statement leads to the belief
that Sebastian and Cook were guilty Of
this lessor offense.
Ledowen and Fishback apparently
are the ones who disobeyed orders.
Secretary Baker later confirmed the
impression that Ledowen and Fishbacl
were the men who disobeyed orders
and Sebastian and Cook those who fel
asleep. II was made known that the pre-
sident made his ruling upon the recon
mendation Of Secretary Baker. At 9

SIBERIAN PROBLEM
FAR FROM SETTLED
Japan VIII Take Action Only
After Other Allied Nations
Consent

Washington, May 4.-The Siberian
problem is far from settled one, Am.
bassador Ishii told the United Press
today adding, however, that he bears
the Japanese governments pledge that
any action that may be eventually nee
essary viii be taken only after the
allies approve.
Ishii has the confidence not alone OF
his own government, but of the presi
dent and high officials of the admins
tration. Hence it is believed he win
council with them on the whole east
ern situation and come to a definite
policy before long.
The ambassador declared he had
come here with the sole desire of deal
ing with questions arising between this
country and Japan in q spirit Of CO.
operation to the mutual benefit OF the
two nations.
He expressed the opinion that there
was no political significance in the
recent retirement Of Minister Montono
from the japanese ministry of foreign
affairs, but he pointed out the fact
that Minister Goto the successor, il
firm in the governments Is policy of de-
liberation in regard to a move in 81
IBERIA.
He asserted that the people Of Ja'
pan held the friendship and alliance
of the United States and the entente
in the highest regard and that they
stand firmly back of the government
in it's attitude.
The ambassador believes yellow
journalism and yellow peril 60 hand in
hand, the latter being the not unsur-
prising offspring Of the former. He re-
ferred to tho recent reports from
Shanghai concerning alleged japanese
demands upon China as the product OF
Chinese yellow journalism.

NEED WORKERS IN
SURGICAL DRESSINGS
Of SALEN'S SRED CROSS
Regular Quota for Willamette
Chapter Cannot Be Filled
Unless Workers Come

Right now when it is more than prob.
able that Salem boys are fighting fol-
their lives against the desperate Huns
Salem women are falling down in their
work Of providing the Red Cross with
Salem's share df surgical dressings
This does not of course apply to the
faithful few who have practically left
their homes and given all their time to
the work of this department at the
postoffice.
The quota for Salem each month i:
as follows:
10 boxes of split irrigation pads
packing 60 to box.
boxes of absorbent pads, packing
1893 to the box.
box of folded congresses, packing
5000 to the box.
The allotment for Salem is 16 boxes
each month and an allotment means
that surgical headquarters at Seattle
rely en- the patriotic women of the city
to send its full quota.
To make, pack and properly prepare
the monthly quota of $500 pieces Of
surgical dressings, for the past week
or so the help has hardly averaged O
dozen day. Some days barely half a
dozen of the faithful have reported
Other days, fifteen to twenty have
helped, but there has not been by any
means the number of volunteers neces
sary to relieve those who have been
working overtime in order that the
dressing might be shipped out on time
Many of he high senool and univers.
ity girls, who have been doing the fold
ed comprtsses, win soon not be avail
able after the close Of school. The
work of making the 5000 congresses
required each month will now fall on
the women
There is a feeling among those who
have been so faithful that if the wo.
men Of Salem only knew the necessity
of sending out these surgical dress
ings, especially since the Salem boys
are on the fighting line, there would
be volunteers enough to carry on the
