UMATILLA FOREST
BANKS ON HELP OF
MEN GRAZING RANGE
More Drastic Action Will be
Taken in Handling Viola
tions of Range Regula-
tionS.

! Forest Supervisor Cryder has been
requested by Assistant District For
ester Kavanaugh in charge of grazing
in the Portland office of the Forest
Service, to advise users of the Forest
range and members of all stock asso-
Citations as follows:
"As a representative of the Service,
will be glad to have you advise the
members of these stock associations
that the Forest Service is most keen
ly interested in their problems and is
willing to do all that it possibly can
To further the interests of the livestock
industry. In every case where it is
clearly shown that the owner is doing
his utmost from a patriotic standpoint
and at the time complying in full
with the regulations of the Service for
the control and protection of the Ma
tional Forest rangeA, the Forest Ser
vice will do all that il consistently
can to assist him. The Service. how
ever, is working under quite a strain,
many of its experienced men have
gone into military service and it is not
possible at present to give to the graz
ing business the attention which we
otherwise would be glad to give. We
are banking on the patriotism of the
stock interests to handle their range
to the best possible advantage in every
way and not violate the regulations or
impose upon their fellow stockmen.
We realize, of course that here and
there, as in all communities, there is
apt to be one or more persons who are
not above taking advantage of un-
timely conditions.
on account of the strained situa-
tion in the Service heretofore mem
toned, we do not feel that we are un-
der any obligations in such cases, and
furthermore, we do not intend to be
lenient. We expect every man to do
his duty by his country at this time.
and those who fail because of lack of
patriotism or on account Of greed, can
expect to feel, after sufficient warn
ing. the fun force and effect of the
law. We are under no obligations to
renew a permit. as it lies within the
power of the Secretary Of Agriculture.
To those stock owners. therefore. who
through lack Of appreciation of the
worth of a Forest Service permit lie
liberately violate the regulations and
impose upon their fellow stockmen,
the warning should be extended that
they may be denied future grazing
privileges
We anticipate that these cases will
be few and far between, but IT should
be distinctly understood that the Ser
vice at present has not the time nor
The men to devote in running down
trespasses. and that more drastic ac-
ton will be taken than has been the
custom heretofore"

GERMANS MISUSE RED CROS BADGE
 IN MANY CASES

With the American Army in France, Nov. 7-Misuse of the Red Cross emblem by the German army is bringing bitter co4ament from Ameri- can officers in position t3 know what is being done. A lieutenant in r5e Medical Corps and an infantry officer assert that "all the stories told about German army's devilish and inhuman tactics are true"
 Taught to respect the Red Cross flag. American troops were led into many an ambuscade by Boche trick cry in the display of this insignia. And what has incensed the Americans the most is the fact that the Germans re- fused to recognize the Red, Cross em- blem at any time.
 Before going to the front I was inclined to doubt some of the stories being circulated about the Germans, ' said the medical officer, ''but after one month in the front lines I can be- lieve anything that is said against them. They are so guilty of inhu- man and barbarous acts themselves that they refuse to respect the use of the Red Cross by the Allies. Their use of the Red Cross insignia is one of the biggest crimes they ought to be made to answer for after the war.
 One of the tricks used by the Boche was to plant a Red Cross flag in the tower of church of a village in the path of the advancing Americans. Re specting it, the infantry would not call for any concentration of artillery fire on these buildings.
 The American troops upon taking one particular village advanced upon church, from which was displayed a Red Cross flag, without suspectine any trick When they were within short range. a murderous machine gun fire was poured into their ranks from the windows and towers ot the church. When the Americans finally gained the interior, they found sl6 machine guns, manned by platoon o1 sturdy Boches-not sign of any nos pital or dressing station. Needless to say no prisoners were taken.

THINKS
 GERMAN ACTION

Paris, Nov. News that a German white flag troop had left for the front made a deep impression in France. where the prompt action of the Ger man government took the public by surprise. The last lingering doubts as to Germanys sincerity in asking for the Allied terms for an armistice still held in certain quarters, seem to be removed.
 On the contrary the impression now held is that Germany is really worse off than generally believed. Mean while the Allied troops are active. The retreat of the Germans verges peril ously near a rout

CONTROL OF U. 5, SENATE REMAINS
 IN DOUBT ON FACE OF EARLY RETURNS

Washington, Nov. 7-Control of the United States Senate continued to re- main in doubt early today on the face of returns from three states where contests between the democratic and republican candidates continued close as the count progressed. The repub- licans further increased their major ity in the house when two of three seats from South Dakota were con- ceded to them. Three seats, one each in South Dakota, New Mexico and Montana still remain doubt.
 The standing of the two parties in the next house, without the three missing districts, is:
 Republicans 236; Democrats 195; a republican majority of forty-one.
 In the senate without the three doubtful seats there are 3S republi- cans and 46 democrats.
