 A telegram was sent to Ban John son, president of the American League, urging him to use his infiu- ence in the matter.
 The commission declared that the intent of the bill would be lost if some associations do not observe it's provisions. The telegram to MT. Johnson follows:
 This country is at war. Will you throw your influence on the side of starting baseball games as usual and not move starting time down in order to get a few more dollars at the box office?
 ''The Daylight Saving Law is in- tended to speed up war work and not < to give additional time for recreation Every minute of available time must be devoted to war gardens and other war activities, for we are fighting the most merciless foe history .vhas ever known"

REV. eOlLlNGER GIVES REASON FOR TRANSFER
 TO VALDEZ CHARGE

DOUGLAS, March 30.-Of the cause for his leaving Douglas, Rev. Bol- finger has this to say:
 While our leaving Douglas has the consent of the Home Missionary authorities, accepting the Valdez call is the result of our choice. These are serious times and the missionary boards are all made to realize this financially For 10 months past, the local church had no definite amount of financial obligations. But this exception to the rule of the board we could not reasonably ask to con tinue after May 31. To meet any thing like a fair proportion of the cost of keeping us, in Douglas it would have to be necessary to se- cure the promise of several hundred additional to the present income. No doubt, friends not directly connect ed with the church would have been ready to assist us temporarily. But all will agree that these are not op- perfume times to make special calls of this nature in Douglas.
 "The missionary board does not intend to forsake Douglas. The Sunday School is to be maintained during the summer. And if condi- tions will justify, another pastor will be provided in the fall.

O'CONNOR TO RETURN
 WITHIN SHORT TIME

DOUGLAS, March 30.-In letter to the Empire correspondent, M. J. O'Connor, now of Seattle, but known to every man, woman and child ill Douglas, states that it is his intention to return to Douglas sometime dur
 ing the month of May and that his stay here will depend largely on the length of time required to settle up under the head of unfinished Busi- ness" Mr O'Connor also said there is but little doing in his line, real estate, in Seattle at present, owing to the unsettled conditions incident to the war. He expressed a firm conviction that the kaiser will be licked to a standstill and that condi- tions throughout all the country will greatly improve when the war is over. MT. OConnor will be welcorl- ed back to Douglas, where he was a familiar figure for nearly 20 years.

INDIGNATION AT HIGHEST
 PITCH AT MCCARTHY

MCCARTHY, March 19.-Excite- ment continues to run high here over the apparent neglect or indif- ference on the part of the federal officials to bring to justice the mur- derer of Rose Silberg, as well as to solve the mystery of. the death few days later of Joe Petry. In fact the residents are so incensed over the turn of affairs that a pc tition is being prepared and will be circulated for signatures praying the attorney. general at Washington to send an officer to the Copper Riv- CT valley to protect the life and property of the people.
 The Jap, who was arrested in connection with the Silberg mur- der, has been released from custody. Although few people ever believed him guilty of the crime, the fact remains that there were sufficient clues which should result in the guilty party being apprehended. Finger prints of the assassin were left at the scene of the murder and blood-stained money was Tn cir culation here immediately after the tragedy.
 It is stated that six murders have been committed in this section and not single conviction secured. Patience is ceasing to be a virtue among the law-abiding citizens of this community and they now in sist that unless therfederal officials are either willing or able to cope with the situation that relief must must come direct from the govern ment, through the department of justice. Believing that the latter course is the only solution of the deplorable conditions, an appeal is to be made direct to the department of justice for relief.
