noted that company NJ was fully rec.
Ognized by the state of Oregon on Sep
tember 25th, and now lacks but very
few members to be on basis that will
be satisfactory to the federal authori-
ties and the company officers feel con-
fident that the necessary recruits will
be available at once. 1t should also be
noted that when Co. NJ is federalized it
is subject to call as separate company
and does not have to wait on the pos
sible organization of battalion, regi-
ment or other units.
The new federal Inspector Of nation
al guard is Col. Young, commandment of
Willamette university and in charge of
the S. A. T. c. at that institution. Col
onel Young will inspect and pass on
the efficiency of Co. M and all other
lational guard units seeking reeogni-
tiOn in this district.
For the information of the public it
should be noted that recognition by
the war department means that nat,on-
al guardsmen so designated are part
and parcel of the defensive and offens-
i've strength of the nation. They may
be called anywhere and used for any
purpose where troops are necessary.
While Co. NJ now possesses full sup
ply of high grade woolen uniforms nee
essary to equip 100 men those uniforms
will be returned to the state after rec
ognition and in their -..u $40 ...

Hun Plans t>Oi0e Conquered
Races f0SfTher Own Land
And Pint German Colonies

Amsterdam, May 3.-(Corre-
spondence of The Associated Press.
An unpleasant prospect for people
of territories occupied by the Ger
mans is outlined in an article which
has just appeared in the German
newspapers, urging that the-people
shall all be driven out of their own
country to make room for German
colonies.
Germany" says the article, "has
been forced to destroy whole states,
as if they were castles constructed
of cards, and thus lost blood from
millions of wounds. Considering
this, it cannot be wrong or immoral
to expel Poles from the territories
of old Russia, so that we may pre-
pare in those regions new fathei
land for the German refugees who
have come from all parts of the
world.
"The question is not one of NOR.
ais, it is merely political and eco
nomic problem. The question is not
what shall we do with the nationali-
ties of the occupied territories But
rather how shall we proceed to
group those territories 50 that they
may best serve the interest OF Ger
many?
Let the latter consideration be
the keynote of our reorganization Of
conquered lands wherever they may
be situated

WILD-EYED COLONIAL
PROGRAM FOR AUSTRIA
WRITER PROPOSES THAT HIS
COUNTRY ANNEX POS
SESSIONS.

Amsterdam, April T.-Austria is
planning to become a great colonial
power as a result Of the war, ac-
cording to statement by Profes-
so- Oscar Karstedt in the Writ
schafts Zeitung. lie suggests that
Austria should take over the colo
NAL possessions OF Portugal
France, Italy and Holland.
1t is not clear why Holland, who
i, not a belligerent, should suffer
the loss OF her East Indian pos
sessions, but Professor Karstcdt
thinks that Holland has neither the
men nor the means to develop her
colonies adequately.
The need for overseas develop
ment is now clearly realized by Aus
tria,' he said, "and the idea Of an
economic penetration Of the Bal
kans cannot be looked upon as Of
foring a solution OF Ausrria's eco
romic difficulties. Austria requires
tropical districts from which she
can draw her supplies of raw ma
terials; and for this purpose they
must be under her own rule. This
is to be the keynote of our future
colonial policy, rather than imper-
ialism which makes The possession
OF territory an end in itself.
Some OF the present colonial
powers will soon drop out Of the
list. Austria ha, strong incentives
TO claim a share in the redistribu-
tion."

The operating income for March
was SS0.62S.3J2 as against So, ,S92.-

The earnings report indicates
roughly that the government lost
more than SlOOOO0.00O in operation
OF the railroads during January,
February and March, although rail-
road administration officials looked
for such a record as a result OF bad
weather and traffic losses in January.
They believe the loss will be made
up in later months.
March earnings, although far be-
low normal, are almost twice as
much as in February and are much
better than in January. when de-
felt in railway operating income
was operated.
For the first time the Interstate
Commerce Commission reported the
item OF met operating income
which is the basis for government
compensation. This, Tor the ia
