EXAMS HALTED ON
ADVICE FROM WASHINGTON
Local Boards Instructed To Call No
More Men For Examination Till
Further Orders

With 400 Questionaires yet to
pass on, the Chelan County Exemp-
ton board is confident that it can
complete its task by the 18th.
While the task of wedding out and
arranging the various men in their
proper and respective classifications
is tedious one, the members of the
board with the system they have
adopted have no fear that they will
be behind when the call comes.
Acting under instructions received
from the War Department at Wash
ington, the county board will not
call any more men for physical ex-
animation until instructions from
Washington to ego ahead" with the
work is received.
This halt, which it is understood
is only a temporary one, has been
called with view to framing new
instructions, which it is understood
will provide a lower standard of
physical examination. Those who
have already been called to report
for examination, will do so and the
county board will examine these
men in accordance with the first or
der but will issue no new calls until
instructions are received from Wash
ington as to the new method of pro-
cedure.

MERCHANTS ARE URGED TO
ADOPT TRADE ACCEPTANCES
Government is Behind the Movement
The System Has Been Well
Established In France and
England

Efforts are being made by the
Spokane Chamber of Commerce,
working in cooperation with bankers
to secure the general adoption of
trade acceptances in business circles.
This form of negotiable paper has
been we'll established in several for
eign countries, notably England and
France, and has obtained an increas-
ing foothold in the United States.
A campaign of education covering
the northwestern states thru its var
ious commercial bodies is to be I'M
dertaken by the Spokane chamber
and at the same time the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States
has been asked to take referendum
of it's membership on the matter.
The salient feature of the trade
acceptance is the establishment of a
new and liquid form of credit. In
stead of the customary plan of SELL
ing goods, implements or any COM
modify on open account and then
waiting 30, so, or 90 days for pay
ment, the merchant Jobber or man
ufacturer or sales agent under the
new system would accompany each
invoice with a "Trade Acceptance" or
an acknowledgement, to be signed by
a "trade acceptance" which is an
acknowledgement, to be signed by
the purchaser, that the goods have
been purchased on customary trade
terms and will be paid for on GER
tain date. "This Acceptance is
sent back to the seller, who then
takes it to his bank and the amount
due him, less the usual discounts, is
placed to his credit.

J. B. ADAMS NOW INTERESTED
IN LEAVENWORTH BANK

On his way to Seattle from Spo-
kane, Mr.. J. B. Adams stopped off
here Wednesday and resumed his
journey to the Coast yesterday. Mr..
Adams has had under consideration
business deal which was closed be-
fore he left for the Coast. He has
taken over a large block of the
stock of the Leavenworth State
Bank and will be its vice-prsident
and an active member of the board
that passes on loans, for which func-
tion he is we'll fitted by his long
residence and familiarity with prop
erty values. His connection with
the bank will not interfere with his
duties as field manager of the
Northwestern Fruit Exchange, which
position he has filed the past three
years to the entire satisfaction of
the Exchange.

QUINCY AS AVIATION SITE

Although the final decision must
come from Washington, D. c. re-
garding the site for army aviation
training camps, it seems pretty GER
tain that one will be located some
where in the Northwest, and Quincy
flats is one of the Sites that will
be considered by the army officials.
F. w. Schultze, Wenatchee
banker, representing the Wenatchee
Commercial club and the people of
the Wenatchee district, took mem
bers of the United States army COM
mission (who have this matter in
handy over four proposed sites in
the vicinity of Ephrata, Quincy and
Soap Lake and devoted the whole of
last Monday answering many ques-
tions put to him by members of
the commission, all of whom, showed
by their attitude and demeanor, to
be immensely pleased; though they
would give no opinions and make no
promises as the decision is import
ant and other sites have yet to be
visited. 1t is believed however that
Quincy flats has a good chance of
becoming an Aviation ground in the
near future.

GERMAN ALIENS REGISTER

According to a statement given to
an Echo reporter, only five "Alien
Enemies" have registered with Post
master Guy Hamilton, who is con-
ducting the registration for the
Leavenworth district.
After registering and giving all
the details Of their careers, such as
birthplace, occupation (past and
presently as required by the govern
ment order, the postmaster then took
the fingerprints and also picture
of the registrant. These will be
filed together with the Registration
Blank.
In answer to question put to
him by the reporter, Mr.. Hamilton
said that Everything went smoothly
and that none of the registrants
voiced any objections at ALL"
The time for "Alien Enemies" to
register will expire on the 9th, and
those who fail to obey this order by
that time are liable to heavy PEN
alties.

SUBMARINES GET
FIRST TRANSPORT:
MANY LIVESLOST

The fact that a transport convey
ing U. S. Troops to Europe has
been sunk, is arousing great interest
in every part of the country. The
full details are not known at this
time. Most of the troops are re-
ported to be from Wisconsin and
Michigan. About 200 were from
the Northwest. Of the 2300 on board
only 210 lives are believed to have
been lost. The Tuscania which is
one of the smaller transports went
down near the Irish coast.
Early dispatches state that the
soldiers displayed the usual Ameri-
can spirit, making light of the sink
ing, and were laughing and singing
when they went over the side of the
doomed ship into the icy waters of
the Atlantic.
A message went over the wires
this morning that Cunarder, a
troop transport, westward bound
from England, had been torpedoed,
but was being towed back to an
English port.

POLICE JUDGE REYNOLDS AND
COUNCILMAN MILLER FIGHT

Over disagreement regarding
the payment of money said to be
due to F. A. Reynolds, police judge
for the city of Leavenworth, by John
Miller, councilman, Reynolds sought
to bodily force Miller from his office
last Friday, according to the story
given an Echo reporter by Mr.. Mil
Ter. The latter it seems did not like
the idea of being forcibly elected,
and for man of his age, fully 20
years older than his opponent,
gave the police judge quite lively
tussle.
Mr.. Miller said he went to Rey-
nolds office to talk over business
matters and was assaulted without
any cause or provocation. He says
he did not start the fight and is SER
iously considering swearing out a
warrant for the arrest of the Police
Judge for assault and battery.
Reynolds was asked by an Echo
representative to make a statement
concerning the affair, but replied he
had nothing to say.
