the conclusion drawn by officials of the
West Coast Lumbermen's Association

Almost every district in the territory

Until few days ago the mills along

suffering now In common with the
others. The survey Of the situation by

"Kamerad!" whiningly intoned by
a German soldier in the midst of a

of the death of Private Paul L. Hull,
according to his father, Charles NJ.
Hull. Of Glenmont, Nd.
Lieutenant Cissel, OF Hulrs COM
pany, just returned from France,
tells how the youthful Marylander
spared a German after the Hun had
pleaded for his life Not suspecting
treachery in the Prussian, Hull turn
ed his back for a moment The Ger
man pulled a hand grenade from his
blouse, pulled the fuse, and threw
the missile straight at Hull. The
grenade exploded. wounding the
American on the head and shoulders.
Hull died two days later in the hos
pital.
Hull, who was previously reported
wounded in action, was one of the
first to volunteer in Company K,
Maryland national guard. when the
Mexican border trouble broke out
He was in training at Camp McClel-
Ian, Ala. during the past winter and
left for France in June.
Lieutenant Cissell, of Company K.
Maryland national guard, who
brought the story of HuITs death to
his father, is now stationed at Camp
Dix, n. ].
Hull is survived by his father. six
sisters, and three brothers, all OF
Montgomery county, Nd.
81 am proud OF my son; he died in
a noble cause" This is the simple
euIogy expressed by the father.
I'VE never heard from Paul after
he went to France last June" said
the father" All the letters we sent
to him were returned to US from New
York, and he was never able to read
them: It's hard. OF course, to know
that he had to die, but it makes the
suffering easier when we know that
he gave his life for his country and
for freedom"

COAL SHORTAGE

A shortage of 1900. 900 net tons
Of Industrial coal for the coal year

deficit between rate of production to.
Gate and requirements. Is 2.041, 900

of the last recorded coal week shows
more than that; the average daily
production for the coal year thus far,
since April 1, Is 80 per cent less than
that. with the factor OF weather con-

GRAND Jury READY
FOR ROY EVIDENCE

Citizens Of Fairfax county are pre-
pairing for the greatest assemblage in
many years on Monday, when the grand
jury convenes to consider evidence
brought before 1t in the investigation Of
the Eva Roy murder.
Although the public will not be ad-
mitted TO the grand jury hearings, in
terest in the case is so aroused in the
county that those wishing first hand"
information. will begin assembling ear
ly. The occasion will also be the first
appearance on the bench of Judge
Brente, who was formerly prosecuting
attorney for the commonwealth Of that
circuit.
There is n great difference OF opinion
in the county as to who is really guilty
Of the murder of the fourteen-year-old
Fairfax county girl. near Burke Sta
ton. on August 6. Many Of the citizens
are outspoken in their opinion against
holding Lou Hall any longer for the
crime, while there are others who be-
lieve that the woodcutter, who was
found in the vicinity of the crime on
the day OF the murder. is either guilty
Of the crime or will make n material
witness in the case for the common
wealth.
II is understood that Commonwealth
Attorney c. Vernon Ford will present to
the grand jury all the available evil
dence and clues relative to others
who have been under suspicion by the
commonwealth since the crime was
committed. These will include the
Camp Humphreys sergeant. Willie
WOrster. now an inmate in the Staun-
ton asylum for the insane. and several
of those living in the neighborhood
where the crime was committed.

RED CROSS TO AID
CAPTURED NURSES

II any American army or navy
nurses are captured by the Germans
the American Red Cross will support
them during captivity. according to
an announcement made from Ameri-
can Red Cross headquarters. This
decision follows closely upon the an
nouncement that under the law the
pay OF army nurses. il captured, can
not be paid because they are tech
nically not on duty.
The Red Cross will undertake to
supply to captured American nurses,
not only food and clothing, but neces-
sary money to pay their board II the
German prison camps treat them as
of officers rank and require them to
pay for board and lodging or go to
work as is expected OF captured army
officers. The Red Cross will assume
this responsibility until such time as
the Government changes this regula-
ton, so that under a technicality
captured nurses will not be cut OF
from salary and maintenance.
Miss Jane A. Delano, director OF
the department of nursing. in discuss
ing this action. says:
Because the absence of a law pro-
viding for the continuance Of pay dur
ing captivity of any army and navy
nurse might exercise an important de-
terrent effect upon the enrolment of
nurses for the Army and Navy Nurse
Corps, it was deemed best for the
Red Cross to take this action so that
no nurse might hesitate to enroll for
military duty for fear>t that IL captured
she would be absolutely dependent
for everything upon those in charge
of German prisons. This action, 1 re-
gard, as merely a temporary eNpedl-
ent, as II is inconceivable that any
thing that will delay enlistment OF
to care for our sick and wound
ed will not receive the immediate at
tention OF the Government. The Army
and Navy Corps is too essential a
part of the military organization to
permit the welfare of the nurses to-
be neglected in any way. The au-
thorities will undoubtedly adjust this
situation speedily. While there Is lit i
tie likelihood that lIrsUs will be cap
tured. the Red Cross, until the tech
nically as to pay is adjusted, will
see that any who are unfortunate
enough to be taken do not lack for
material comfort or money in Ger
many. The pay and other allowances
to nurses working directly under the
auspices of the American Red Cross
abroad. of course, continue for the
period OF assignment and would not
be affected by captivity in enemy
