Washington. May 20.-The war
industries board has fixed the price
of the 1918 wool clip at the prices es-
tablished June 80, 1917, at Atlantic
seaboard markets on the secured ba-
sis.
The government is to have prior
rights on the clip for its needs at
those prices, and the remainder Is
subject to ALLEGATION for other uses
under the direction of the board. As
the needs of the government requires
concentration of wool close to points
of consumption, distributing centers
have been approved at which wool
may be distributed only.
For fleece wool the centers will be
Boston. Newyork, Philadelphia, Chi
cago, st. Louis, Detroit, Louisville,
Baltimore, and Wheeling. w. Va.
For territory wool the centers will
be Portland. Ore, Chicago, New York,

titles Of not less than minimum car
loads of 5000 pounds and consign
the woods so pooled as one account
TO any approved dealers in any APP
proved distributing center. Growers
are urged to adopt this latter course

LIGHT FROST
LAST EVENING
Temperature Drops to 80
Degrees Slight Dam
age to Gardens.

The white sheet that covered the
ground early this morning caused con-
siderable anxiety for the many gar
dens in the city. 1t has, however,
been reported from all over the city
that the damage is slight. Cucumbers,
tomatoes. corn and peas are said to
have been nipped by the frost caused
by the fall of the temperature to 33
degrees. but nearly all other vege-
tables are less susceptible t the Sc
verify of the temperature.
On September 2 last year the first
light frost occurred. Last nights
frost, although one day later. was no
more destructive. The temperature,
taken in shelter 6 or 8 feet above the
ground, was reported to be 33 de-
grees. Close to the ground it fell as
low as 80 degrees in some places.
The first killing frost of last year
occurred on September 9. The latest
killing autumn frost is reported to be
that of October 16, 1900. The first
frost which comes in the season is
usually light.
Later when the temperature drops
lower comes what is called by the
weather bureau a killing frost. The
latter Is very destructive and is suf-
ncientiy heavy to destroy all vege-
tables, grains and staple crops.
The average date for the first kill
ing frost as reported by the U. S.
weather bureau wires is September 18,
Although nc frost is predicted for
North Dakota tonight, northern Min
nesota is threatened with light frost,
but a rising temperature is promised
which may end temporarily the cool
wave.

HEARING May
Be HELD SOON
Auditing Of Red River Pow
er Co.'S Book Almost
Finished.

According tt. Official advtces resolved
today by City Attorney Geo. A. Bangs,
the auditing of the Red River Power
company's books is almost complete
and will be entirely finished within
n or two days. Judging from this
fact, it rs supposed that the often
postponed and long deferred hearing
relative to surcharges levied by the
Red River Power Co. upon Its
toners will be held before the board
future.
The Investigation, Of which the aud
iting is the first direct result has
been started for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning whether or not the Red River
Power Co. was justified In levying the
extra charge on its patrons. This
charge was added to all gas and cleo
tricity bills in the city on January /,
this year.
In December Of last year the city
councils attention was called to tho
matter, n a committee Of aldermen
and citizens was appointed by Mayor
J. a. Dinnt to determine whether or
not the railroad commissioners should
be appealed to. After various reports
had been, made, it was finally agreed
that such action. be taken, and In
March announcement was made that
9 hearing would take place April 4.
This was postponed, partly on account
of Assistant Attorney General Dan v.
Brennanss death, andEwhen another
date was liked early in the summer,
that, too was postponed-his time In
definitely. Now3it ID supposed that
dehnttc action will be- taken very soon.

UNIVERSITY
STUDENTS TO

One Of the results of the passing Of
the man-power bill in congress last
week was the transformation Of the
students army training corps from
a volunteer to a draft basis. 1t places
the nation and the universities on a
war basis. and necessitates the mob
ilization Of all physically fit regis
trants under FL within ten months

training corps becomes at once a SOL
der in the United States army, and
he will receive from the government
housing, subsistence, uniform, tuition
and the pay of a private. All young
men intending to do this should reg
lister with their local boards on reg
istration day, September IL.
The university will open on October
1, instead of September 80, as pre-
viously announced, and students will
enroll in the regular way ON that
date as college students. They will
then be indicted under the 'selective
service act, into the students army
training corps, and become at once
soldiers in the United States army on
full active status, and subject to mill
itary discipline. The student-sol-
diers will be given military instruc-
ton under officers Of the army and
will be kept under observation and
test to determine their qualification
as officer candidates or technical ex-
perts such as engineers. chemists or
doctors. After a certain period the
men will be selected according To
their performance and assigned to
military duty in n Of the following
ways:

central officers training camp.

BLACK FRIDAY
TO Be BRIGHT
ss
Plans are on Foot for Cele.
bration Of Pershing's
Birthday.

Friday the thirteenth is the day
not in the that Thomas W.
Lawson made literature Of it, mol 'Der

boastfully toasted before the war, but
in a new and wholly patriotic sense,
for it is. this year, the birthday of
General John J.. P%ershing, COM
mander-in-chief Of the American ex-
peditionary forces In Europe.
General Pershing was born Septem-
Der 13, 1860, and as his birthday this
year comes on a Friday, it is consid-
cred an unusually suspicious omen of
good luck, in view of the fact that old
superstitious beliefs connected with
revised so that Friday the thirteenth
now is taken to mean something ex-
traordinarily good. 1t will in 1918.
1t was announced today that a local
committee is making preparations for
the proper celebration Of the birthday
OF the American generalissimo, and
that an elaborate demonstration will
be held. This will be so much the
more impressive because the birthday
follows the day on which all men in
the city and county between the ages
of 10 and As will have been regis
tered for military service.
The details Of the proposed celebra-
ton have. not yet been arranged, but
1t is understood that a committee will
be organized and Immediately start to
work out plans for a festival by which
citizens can pay joyous and respectful,
homage to the commander Of the in.
c~reasingly popular Annex forces II
France and Flanders.
Several unique features Will b
considered as parts Of the program
and it has also been suggested tina
the street dance Of last night be re
peated SO that the Golfers Of the aux
