WILSON OUTLINES
DEFINITE PROGRAM
TO END THE WAR
CONTINUED From Page One.)

found impression upon all who heard
him.
Coming at moment when Germany
faces the demands of her Socialists
for an abandonment Of any program
of annexations and indemnities and
also faces the failure of the peace ne
gotiations at Brest-Litovsk, the pres
idents pronouncement developed its
tremendous Importance as he spoke it
word by word to a crowded chamber
of legislators, diplomats and officials
who gave him the closest attention
Although the address was punctuated
literally by applause, there was one
great demonstration when the presi-
dent declared France must have right
for the wrong in Alsace-L0rraine. Al
that, the entire assembly rose, ap-
plauGed and cheered loudly.
Delivered in Silence.
Otherwise, the presidents address
was delivered in the silence which
denotes the rapt attention of an audi
ence which realized that it was pass
ing through a great quarter of an hour
in the life of the world.
To the German people the president
gave reinsurance that there was nc
aim to impair their peaceful great
ness.
Not Jealous Of Germans.
1--WE have no jealousy of German
greatness he said, land there is moth
ing in this program that impairs it
We grudge her no achievement or dis
tinction of learning or Of pacific en-
terprise such as have made her record
very bright and very enviable. We dc
not wish to injure her or to block in
any way her legitimate influence OF
power. We do not wish to fight her
either with arms or hostile arrange
ments of trade, if she is willing to as
sociate herself with us and the other
peace-loving nations of the world In
covenants of justice and law and fail
dealings. Neither do we presume tt
suggest to her any alteration or modi
fication of her institutions. But it il
necessary, we must frankly say, and
necessary as preliminary to any in
telligent dealings with her on our part
that we should know who the spokes,
men speak for when they speak to us
whether for the German reichstag ma
jority or for the military party and the
men whose creed is imperial DONNA
ton"
Responds With Candor.
The president made clear at the out
set that the German statesmen have
again challenged their adyersaries tt
restatement of war aims, he under
took to respond to it with the utmos
candor. The British premier's declara
ton, the president referred to as hav
ing been spoken with admirable can
dor and in admirable spirit for the
people and government of Great Brit
ain"
THE only secrecy of counsel" h
added, 'the only lack of fearless frank
ness, the only failure to make state
ment of the objects of the war, lie:
with Germany and her allies"
The voice of the Russian people
PROSTATE and all but helpless. witt
power shattered, but souls not sub
servient, called for a statement o
aims and, the president added, he re
sponded, with utter simplicity ant
frankness."
All Join In Approval
The president occupied Just % min
| utes in delivering his address. Eacf
statement of the program was greeted
with some applause as the presiden
read it, and there was no division o
approval apparent between the par
| ties.

REGISTRATION Of MEN
lS TO 45 WILL LIKELY
Be IN SEPTEMBER

Portland, Ore, August 14.-Some-
time early in September, every man
in Oregon between the ages of IS and
20, and 32 and As years, inclusive,
will be required to register under the
new draft law, now before Congress.
These age limits are as yet tenta-
tive, as the bill has not been finally
acted upon. Minor changes may be
made in the age limits. But they
will be in general as stated in the
foregoing.
The exact date of the opening
registration day has not yet been
set, and cannot be set until Congress
passes the law to lower and extend
the draft ages. But it is considered
certain that the .aw will be passed
very soon and that the registration
day to be proclaimed by the Presi-
| dent will be early in September.
Every man who comes within the
designated ages should keep himself
very carefully informed, for his own
protection, about the status of the
new draft measure, and especially
as to the day fixed for registration.
Failure to register on the proper
day will subject the neglectful person
to heavy penalty. Ignorance will
not excuse him.
Oregon is pretty we'll versed in the
procedure to be complied with by
men of draft age on registration day,
for already two such draft registra-
tion days have been held in the state
The first was that of June 5, 1917,
when all men from 81 to 80 years
of age, inclusive, We're required to
register for military service. The
second registration day was that of
June of this year, when all men
who had attained their 21st birthday
since registration day of the pre-
ceding year were required to register
The coming registration day will
be even more important than these
two, for the number of men to be
ID dI lully OHG-
third greater than on June S, 1917.
1t is believed that in Oregon alone
fully 100000 men will have to reg
ister
So far as possible, registration
places on the coming registration day
will be in the regular voting places.
Local Boards will be in full charge
of the registration.
Local Boards have received in
structions to make all preliminary
arrangements at once for conducting
the registration, so there Will be no
delay when the President $ procla-
nation is issued. Registrants are to
be appointed for each precinct, on
the ratio of about one to each prob
able eighty registrants.
Interpreters also will be provided
where necessary to facilitate regis
tration.

1t is estimated that during the
past Is months the output of corn
flour has increased 500 per cent.
The estimated production of corn
flour for October and for March
is placed at 100000 and $4,000
barrels, respectively.
There is now enough corn meal
being turned out to care for all de-
mands in the United States. The
remarkable increase in output, which
is certain to become greater each
succeeding month, is due in con-
siderable part to the conversion of
much wheat-milling machinery into
corn-milling machinery.

FOOD PRICES WIN

Figures compiled by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics of the Department
of Labor show that wage increases
in the United States are not keep
ing pace with the advance in the
cost of living, according to state
ment made recently by Assistant Sec
rotary of Labor Post. These figures
he says, show that, while the cost
of food last year increased twenty
five per cent for the entire country,
the wage advance was only half or
two-thirds of that rate.
The statement issued by the Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics showing the
increased living costs throughout the
United States for the year ending
january Is, says:
Comparing January Is, 1918,
with january Is. 1917. the price
of food as whole increased 25
per cent. All articles show decided
increases with the exception of po-
tatoes, which decreased 16 per cent.
Corn meal shows the greatest price
change, an increase of II per cent.
Bacon increased 81 per cent; lard,
SO per cent; pork chops, II per
cent; ham, AZ per cent; milk, So per
cent; hens, 20 per cent; butter, 25
per cent; eggs, % per cent; bread,
10 per cent: sugar, IS per cent;
and flour. II per cent.

RED CROSS GIVES s14,4oo
TO AID SERBIAN STUDENTS

The war council of the American
Red Cross has just appropriated from
the war fund the sum of S14,400 for
the education in Switzerland of 40
Serbian students in the study of
dentistry and tuberculosis. The ap-
preparation was made upon the re-
commentator of Cordenio A. Sew
erance, head of the recent Red Cross
commission for Serbia, who pointed
out that the terrible hardships en-
dured by the Serbian army and peo-
pie have resulted in a great increase
in tuberculosis. The sum voted will
pay for the maintenance and educa-
ton of the young Serbians for a
course lasting one year.

ALIEN PROPERTY
IN STATES WILL
NET LARGE SUM

The Alien Property Custodian has
taken over a wide variety of mer-
chandise and commodities in various
parts of the country belonging to
enemy persons, says the Official
Bulletin. The list includes manufac-
tured articles and household goods
and lots of cotton, rosin, nickel, and
tobacco. Much of this is subject to
waste or storage charges, and must
therefore be sold promptly.
1t is in comparatively small lots
and scattered all over the country.
For instance. there is an Ingersoll
watch in San Francisco, a small con-
signment of Japanese rugs in New
York, three horses near Joplin, Mo-,
two vases worth $4,000 at an At
lantic seaport, carload of logs
CEDAR in the South, and some ma
chine tools in New England. etc. If
it should be sold at public auction.
the expense of advertisement and sale
and the storage charges and other
cost for protecting the property
caused by the delay of sale would
consume much of the proceeds
In the interests therefore of get
ting better price, saving money for
the government and the ultimate
