UNITEDSTATfSFILES
BRIEF TO SUPPORT
RIGHT TO CONSCRIPT |
Tells Supreme Court That
Nation Has No Other Ade
quate Means Of Defense

Washington, April 5.-If sending
selective service men to France is un-
constitutional the United States has no
adequate power of self defense and its
death as a nation is certain.
This is to be the defense of the gov
ernment in the supreme court in the
case of Robert Cox, who sued to re-
strain Major General Wood, command
ant at Camp Funston, Kansas, for
sending him overseas.
The argument is contained in a brief
prepared by Solicitor John W. Davis of
the department of justice, filed today.
Cox was calie5 into service under the
draft of May Is. He did not belong
to the regular army, national guard or
state militia. Anticipating he would
be sent overseas, he sued in the Kansas
federal court to prevent such action.
He stated he is perfectly willing to
fight on American soil.
Cox's counsel read new word into
the constitution in arguing his side of
the case. 1t was contended that the
phrase ''to raise and support armies
is not complete as it appears in the
constitution, but should be revised to
read "to raise ana support volunteer
armies. f" 1t was also argued that the
selective draft was passed in pursuance
of the power to raise and support
armies, but as calling forth the militia
to execute the laws of the union, sup.
press insurrection and repel invasions.
The government brief charges that
much of the argument used by Cox IS
counsel is of an foffensive character
and constitutes a gross attack before
this court (supreme court) upon the
coordinate legislative and executive
branches of the government.
On this account the government asks
that the brief of the opposing counsel
be stricken from the files.

MeSSenheiIner Arrested For
Falsely Obtaining Money

NJ. L. Messenheimer was arrested yes
terday afternoon by Deputy Sheriff O.
D. Bowers on a warrant held by Sheriff
Chrisman of The Dalles. Messenheimer
is being held for obtaining money under
false prtenses. He was arrested at
Camp No. 3. of the Silver Falls Lum-
Der company, about 20 miles east of Sill
verton.
According to the story told by Mes
senheimer, he had applied for job
while at The Dalles, and was sent back
in the country to a sheep ranch with
the understanding he was to go to work.
When he arrived there, the foreman
told him he was too late, and gave him
500 to get back to civilization with.
Messenheimer believes he was arrested
because he has not paid back this
money. Sheriff Chrisman will arrive for
the man this evening.

Gull crop cf all who have signed five
year contracts with the company. The
old plant of the West Salem Evaporat-

will be completed in time to take care
OF the 1918 crop.
The growers are guaranteed a price
Of so cents per hundred and as much
more as the price of the finished pro-
duct will allow. Culls only will be us

tunity to dispose of a formerly use
less product, without reducing the
quantity of the marketable potatoes.
The local commercial club has guaran-
teed a thousand acres in the district,
and most of this has been signed up,

AMERICAN TROOPS
LOCATED NEAR VERDUN
Enemy Raid Upon Listening
Post RepuIsed by Artillery
Barrage
By Fred 8. Ferguson

Omitted Press staff correspondent)
With the American Army in France
April 4. American troops are now
holding a sector on the right bank Of
the Meuse within sound of the guns
at Verdun.
The enemy last night raided a list
ening post in this new sector after a
heavy bombardment. A quick Ameri-
can barrage inflicted losses ON the enc.
my.
These trenches, which range across
the hillsides, are muddy but in com
paratively good condition. The dugouts
are lighted with electricity. The ses-
tor until recently was unusually quiet
and soldiers plucked dandelions in No
Man Is Land. The first casualty infliet-
ed by the Germans was a shell through
bass drum.
The following message from Presi-
dent Wilson is published in the Stars
and Stripes, the expeditionary force 8
newspaper:
"Please convey to the Officers and
men of our expeditionary force the
warmest greetings on the eve of the
United States entrance into the great
war of liberty and say to them that W.
have not only been proud of the way
they have so far accounted for them
selves, but we have the utmost conf
dence that they will prove themselves
in every sense to be made of the fin
est metal of free men,"

]. W. Hing, Chinese,
Killed by Motor Truck

J. W. Hing, prominent resident of
the Oriental district of Salem, dieG
about 7 o clock last evening at the Sa-
lem hospital as the result of injuries
received shortly before 5 o'clock when
he was run down at the opening of the
allev on Court street, near Roberts
grocery store, by a truck driven by
John Sloeum.
Slocum was entering the alley from
Court street with a load of wood, Wit
nesses to the accident say that as he
approached the alley he drove slow
and sounded his horn repeatedly. Hing
did not seem to be conscious of the
truck at all and walked directly in
front of it. He was knocked down and
several ribs were broken, but the
truck did not pass over his body as
first reported. The driver brought the
vehicle to an immediate stop, just as
the front wheel was ready to pass over
Kings chest. Internal hemorrhage of
the lungs, caused by broken rib
puneturing the lung brought about
death.
Hing operated a store on south High
street. It is said that one time he was
quite wealthy, but lost most of his
wealth in a hop ranch. He IS survived
by a wife and seven children.
The funeral viii be held Monday
afternoon at o'clock from the Webb
& Clough parlOrs, Rev. G. F. Holt hav-
ing charge Of the services. Burial will
be in the Odd Fellows cemetery.

in the allotted time. Each city which
fills the quota viii receive a eommu-
nity flag. and every time the quota Is
doubled, the flag will receive a blue
star. A community honor roll is also
TO be established, and the names of
those who contributed will be signed.
It is hoped in this way to stimulate
interest. and it is believed that the
honor flag can be made a potent factor
in making the loan a huge success. As
each purchaser of the bonds is to re-
ceive a window card, bearing a re-
production of the honor flag, it is be-
iieved that the advertising so secured
viii be an important item in the cam
paign.
While it Is believed that very few
towns win fall below the quota, there
are few who are liable to double it.
and the securing of a blue star will
be worthy Of a celebration. The local
expects to secure an hon
or flag, and are not sure but that
star might be added as well.

Agricultural Expert
Campaigns Against Smut

w. S. Carpenter, representing the U.
s. department Of agriculture and the
Oregon Agricultural college, is now in
Marion county. Mr.. Carpenter desires
to impress upon the grain growers of
the section, the Importance of careful
treatment of seed grain for smut.
The estimated loss from grain smut,
in the U. s. in 1917 was 125 million
bushels; Oregon's loss was proper
tionate. The greater part of this loss
can be controlled by careful prevent
ative methods. In these days of food
conservation and wheat substitution,
proper seed treatment of grain should
be conscientiously practieed.
The responsibility for careful seed
treatment does not rest entirely upon
the farmer. Formaldehyde and blue
vitrol are used to control grain smut,
Druggists and others who handle these
chemicals should see to it that such
materials are of proper strength and
quality.
Formaldehyde or blue yitrol if prop
erly used will prevent grain smut. The
use of formaldehyde is urged by the
department because it is equally eff
fective, much cheaper, and more cas-
ly applied. Contrary to the general
idea it is not apt to injure the seed
if used with any degree of care.
All grain should be famed before
being treated for smut. One pint of for
maldehyde should be usede in 40 gal
Ions of water. This is recommended
for wheat, oats and barley. Forty gal
Ions of this solution is enough to treat
about As bushels of wheat or 80 bush
els of oats or barley.

EVERY YARD TO HAVE GARDEN
Writer Urges Importance Of Move.
mont, to Be Impressed on All
Members OF tho Community. :"

One of the first necessities, says DR..
John II. Finley in recent paper on
gardening, is to arouse interest in the
work among the young people Of the
community, but fully as important as
this is securing the cooperation Of the
parents. It is quite necessary for the
entire success of this movement that
the older people not only realize the
importance Of increased production
during the coming year, but that they
also take an active part In the pro-
duction.
1t is especially important that only
good seeds and good plants be used.
Therefore, those who are in charge
of this work should see to 1t that
those having gardens be referred only
to reliable firms for seeds. In order
that lack Of capital may be no handl-
cap to those desiring to take up the
work, there should be provided and
administered loan fund for those
who need assistance in buying ma
nure, hiring vacant lots or large gar
den plots. and in paying for blowing
and narrowing same.
Now is the time to deal with next
winters disturbances; high cost Of
living, boycots and embargoes. A
national preparedness for war de-
mands that immediate steps be taken
by every individual to do his share In
the production movement. "A gar
den In every yard" should be our slo-
gam. h.
