PERSHING'S FIFTY
SELL 81 KISSES
FOR RED CROSS

Fifty kisses were sold to Washing
ton girls at 81 each by Pershing's
soldiers just back from France to
aid the Red Cross last night
Three blushinE veterans were Sc
lected for kissing duty by fifty OF
the Capitals fairest. The osculatOry
attack netted the Red Cross just $50.
1t was only for sweet charity's sake
and the pleasure of serving the coun-
try that the war heroes capitulated,
threw up their arms and EMBODIED the
girls and women.
The trio OF soldiers. all from Per
shing's fighting nifty" surrendered
their lips and arms when a maid said:
I'll give a dollar to the Red Cross for
a kiss" The rush for caresses from
the soldier heroes was the answer.
"If this is war. what will the spirit
OF General Sherman say" breathed a
busy veteran, whom the first-line
trenches were carried by the women.
The kisses were delightfully."- varied.
This scene followed an overflow
meeting in Liberty Hut, on Union Sta
tion Plaza, last night, when the trio
of soldiers addressed a gathering of
hundreds of persons on a field OPP
posite the building. In addition TO
the $50 raised by the sale OF kisses,
three men matched a stranger with
So contributions to the Red Cross.
The young women who came finan-
cially unprepared for the auction be-
moaned their fate and attempted to
take souvenirs from the uniforms of
Pershfng's fighters. II took a police
guard to rescue the soldiers.

ment that carpenters in shipyards
are now on strike.
Before any government agency is
given an opportunity to act, and de-
spite the good record of our adjust
ment boards promptness and fair
ness in dealing with all labor mat
tiers, you attempt to paralyze the

do you think the fathers and

sacrifice will sit patiently by and per-
nit this paralyzing of the life line

go on?
"Will you take my friendly sug-

HANNAFORO RECOVERING
FROM SERIOUS INJURIES
South Bay Farmer, Caught on Engine
Flywheel, ut First Thought
Fatally Hurt.

Caught on the rapidly revolving
fiywheel of a gasoline engine with
which he was operating grain
grinder. Frank Hannaford, a we'll
known South Bay resident, was
whirled about the shaft until his
heavy mackinaw and other clothes
were torn from him and he was
thrown to the barn floor, sustaining
injuries which until Tuesday it was
feared would be fatal. He is now re-
ported to be recovering.
The accident occurred Wednesday
afternoon of last week at the George
Stearns farm. where the Hannafords
have been living in the absence of
the Stearns, who are visiting in the
East. Mr.. Hannaford was in the barn
with his little 3-year-old boy at the
time, grinding grain. After the &C.
cident he was able to drag himself
to the house before he collapsed en-
tirely.
His injuries consist of two broken
/ ribs and badly battered and
bruised body. His condition re-
manned very low until Tuesday OF
this week and DR.. F. A. Longaker
who is attending him. feared he had
suffered internal injuries. He hat
since begun to improve, Mrs. Han

to recover. With Mrs. Hannaford al

ASKS SUBMISSION

FEDERAL RES SERVE BOARD
WANTS TO PASS ON ALL
ISSUES OF SECURITIES.

ne committee hopes tnat De-
fore offering for sale stocks.
bonds, or notes of
states, counties and municipal
tiles of $250.000 and above, adj
vice will be sought from it as to
whether such sale at the time
will be held to be compatible
with the public interest" ts
This is one of the statements made
in letter received this week by F..
M. Kenney, cashier of the Olympia
National bank, from Paul M. War
burg. chairman Of the capital issues
committee of the federal reserve
board, in which he outlines the pol
icy of that board with reference to
the issuance of securities during war
time. Similar letters are being sent
to every bank in the United States.
"Any unnecessary use Of credit,
saps and weakens the fighting
strength of the nation" the letter
says. Credit improperly granted
not only wastes to that extent funds
that should be made available to the
government, but misdirects at the
same time the use of labor and ma
terial which should be devoted to
national purposes"
The letter goes on to say that the
federal reserve committee expects
whenever necessary, to call upon the
! chairman and governor of each fed
eral reserve bank for local inves-
tigation and report, authorizing them
to invite, from list to be approved
by the board, not more than three
men likely to be able to give expert
and judicial advice in the case, to
join with them in particular exami-
nation and report"
! In this connection, Mr.. Kenney
points out that the state highway
commission of Oregon has adopted
the policy Of comforting with the fed
eral authorities and not authorizing
any road work until after the gov
eminent has Investigated each i'm
provement and given It approval.
] Upon receipt of telegram from
Chairman Warburg, in which he said
that his committee holds to the
broad view that no expenditures
should be made at this time except
those that are clearly compatible
with and essential to national well
fare as distinguished from local in
terest," the Oregon commission. at
the request of Chairman John Per-
rim of the federal reserve bank at
San Francisco. is preparing triplicate
statements regarding the location
and extent of highways to be con-
structed for the information of the
federal reserve board All construc-
ton is held up pending the boards
decision.
In speaking Of the situation at a.
meeting of the commission, w. L..
Thompson, one of its members, said:
"The bond buyers have notified us
that until the road projects for which
bonds are to be sold have received
the approval of the federal authori-
ties. they will not be interested In
bidding for these securities.
The government will apply to its
program of post-road and forest
road construction the same policy Of
curtailment 1t has asked the state to
pursue" Mr. Thompson added.
