Toledo Threatened
With Serious Flood

Toledo, Ohio, Feb. 15.-Toledo was
threatened with one of the most serious
floods in its history. Thousands OF
tons of ice which passed down the
:Maumee river early today have lodged
at the entrance of Maumee bay, form
ing a massive gorge.
Water is backing up, flooding the
first floors of numerous factories and
business houses. Water street, a block
from the river, is under four feet Oh
water. The river stage is ten feet
above normal and is rising rapidly.
Eighty percent of Toledo's indus
tries are facing shutdown as a re-
suit of the flood waters that are sweep
ing the city waterfront.
The Toledo Railway and Light com
pany's power plant, which supplies
nearly all of Toledo's factories with
power, is surrounded by four feet OF
water and may have to close within
two hours. Patrons have been warned
of the impending shutdown. Users OF
electric lights have been urged to Sc
cure candles, as the city may be IN
darkness tonight

Fog Of Words In Senate

Washington, Feb. l5-The senate to
day checked off another day on the
calendar with a fog of words which
marked no progress on win the wal

The whole session was slated for di-
vision between Senators Kirby, Ar
kansas, and Weeks, Massachusetts, on
speeches-the former to talk on the
Overman bill clothing the president
with broader war powers and the lat
ter to review testimony as to need of

consume the entire day.

met bill to the senate. Chamberlain
also stated he will reply in the senate
to Senator Jones attack on him.

Butte Miners Decide
to Call General Strike


Butte, Mont, Feb. 15.-A decision to
call out all members employed in local
mines was announced today by officials
of the international Association OF
Machinists. This follows refusal OF
the Anaconda Copper company to either
dismiss OF pay the fines levied against
three former union maehinists who re-
mained loyal to the company and
worked during the strike last summer
No date has been set for calling out
the machinists. A committee from the
machinists union is today waiting upon
the metal trades council, which in
cludes pipe filters, blacksmiths, help
ers. boilermakers and similar crafts
employed at the mines. These organ
izations will be asked to join in the
walkout.
The. international headquarters has
endorsed the local maehinists demand
against the company. Some members
of the Butte local predict that If the
strike is called, all shipyards where
maehinists are employed may be af-
fected

Federal Cord Tires
Show Great Durability

What gives the suspension bridge its
tremendous strengthg Countless strands
and cables, each bearing its carefully
apportioned share of the load, their com
bined strength far in excess of the de.
mand made on it, and the whole struc-
ture further safe guarded by a certain
elasticity aud flexibility.
A cleverly defined parallel may be
drawn between the suspension bridge
and the Federal Cord Tire.
For this tire owes its great durabil-
ity to cords and cables, each strong in
itself, but tremendous in their com
bined strentgh.
In durability, safety and service,
therefore, the Federal Cord Tire stands
forth supreme.
The motorist sees proof of this su-
premacy in increased mileage, greater
riding comfort, better eoasting ability
and decreased gasoline consumption.

Satan say:
"Look here, boys, take notice, give

So give him the ha, ha! and kick him

FinanCier Writes of Matters
Pertaining to War and Business

Progress is being made in the new
railroad bill now before congress, the
last proposal being that the government
take over control for q period of eight
cen months after the establishment of
peace. As some months must elapse be-
fore the war ends, and peace discussions
will probably occupy a year more or
less, it will easily be three years or
more before the roads will be returned
to their owners. The bill contains var
ious provisions for compensation to the
railroads, for the self-control of their
finances, for the rights of employees,
etc, which win relieve the railroads
from serious uncertainties for the dur
alton of the war and the eighteen
months subsequent. This should help re.
store the credit of the roads, and serve
to remove one of the most serious ele-
ments of distrust in the security mar
ket.
Stock market operations are being
conducted upon conservative lines. Liq-
uidation has been unusually thorough;
few stocks are for sale, and there il
good buying on every important decline.
Values seem to fluctuate freely within
certain limits, proving a healthy de-
gree of elasticity. OF course the con-
trolling factor is the war; peace ru-
mOrs having a stimulating effect and
prolongation of the war the reverse.
Money is likely to continue firm in
view of government requirements, and
the granting of credit may be confined
as much as possible to necessary de-
mands.
The Tuscania incident exercised de-
cidedly SOLDERING effect and naturally
tended to depression. We are now ap-
proaching critical period. Preparations
are undoubtedly being made by every
belligerent for energetic prosecution OF |
the war with the opening Of spring
which is drawing near. Present mae
tivity at the front is not, without its
Germany appreciates that
she is perhaps facing the final deeis-
ion. This is certainly the hope of the
allies.

Castle, killed in an airplane accident,
danced his last dance in public with
Mrs. Castle at the English theater here
two years ago last Monday.
Mrs. Castle had been appearing with
the "Wateh Your Step" company. She
and her husband had been separated
for some time.
During the show that evening, Castle
appeared in a box. He had come back
to bid his wife farewell before leaving
to fight for his country. Members of
the company saw him and went into
the box. After some eoaxing they in
duced him to come on the stage, where
he greeted his wife-and they danced
their last dance.
The meeting resulted in reconcile
alton and the next day Castle an
nouneed his intention of becoming an
aviator.

THE KA1sER's DREAM

There's story I'm told, tho strange
it may seem,
How the Great Kaiser Bill had a won
derful dream.
He was dreaming of allies as he lay
in his bed.
When his dream switched about and
he dreamed he was dead
In q very fine coffin he was lying in
state,
And thousands were there tho none
mourned his fate.
His soul buzzed about and found to his
cost
That he and his soldiers were doomed
to be lost;
He wouldn't believe it, so to Heaven
went straight,
And, arrived at the portals, knocked

The Chevrolet Pulls
Carload of Autos

| 1t has been just short time ago that
the Chevrolet "FOur- Ninety" proved
its mettle in Portland, Oregon, by out
speeding the Shasta Limited train from
Portland to Eugene in three hours and
forty mine minutes, and setting a pre-
cedent for all other ears in climbing ON
high gear the notorious Hall street hill
grade in Portland
Now "Four-ninety has carved ano.
theR niche in the hall of fame for motoi
car performances. Again it has convin.
cingly demonstrated it's remarkable quail
tiles Of strength, power and endurance
by pulling q carload of Chevrolet cars
the total pull being estimated at $4,000
pounds, including the freight car as well
as the Chevrolet cars at about 100
pounds each.
The unique test was staged by Roger
q Fields, Chevrolet dealers, in the east
side freight yards with four of their
statesmen aboard the "Four-Ninety".
E. s. Wiley drove, with W. F. Her
Finger, sales manager, at his side, and
with Q. Houseman and w. Il. West in
the tonneau.
A sturdy rope was used in hitching the
Chevrolet by its rear axle to the load
ed freight car. AS the "all aboard"
signal was given, a considerable group
of spectators gasped, but despite the ter
rifle strain that was placed on the rear
axle of the Chevrolet it pulled the big
load without any apparent effort.
The Oregonian devoted considerable
space to detailed description of this
performance ON the part of
Four-Ninety" Motor car buyers were
very favorably impressed with the stur,
diness of construction shown in the un-
usual demonstration. Much enthusiasm
was also manifested in the powerful val
ve-in-head motor, and sales in Portland
territory are mounting high.
