Acting Chief Has Establish
ed Startling Record for
Increasing U. S. Effici-
ency.
GENERAL BLISS WILL
ALSO BE PUT HIGHER
Changes Will Mean Removal
lof Restrictions Due to
Seniority Rule.
CcARL ID. GRoAT)

WASHINGTON May 2O.-President
Wilson this week win name Major
General March full general and chief
of Staff. General Bliss. now on the
Versailles council. win become brevet
general.
These important changes mean vast
ly more than is apparent. They mean
the removal of restrictions General
March faced as acting chief because
some other major generals outranked
him. Secretary Baker decided on the
changes after consulting with the SEN
ators at a war council session, when
he found that sentiment insured the
quick passage of the March nominal
tion in the senate, without opposition.
Baker was told that the senate likes
March, who has demonstrated himself
a live wire, slashing red tape and hat
ing delay and inaction.
This means a momentous change
for March. Returning from his post
of artillery chieftain with General
Pershing, he found himself baked by
the seniority rule Military men de-
clared that the situation was impos-
sible. March's record is one of startI-
ing achievements despite all obstacles.
To him is due the credit for increasing
shipping facilities and speeding Am
erican troop movements.

UMATILLA COUNTY
FIRST IN CONTRACT
Enters With State for Main
tenance of Wild Horse
Road.

umatilla county is the first county
TO enter in a contract gith the state
for road maintenance. The terms OF
the contract as being prepared by the
state highway commission will provide
for the care of the ten mile section of
the Wild Horse roadV which was
paved by the state last year. The con-
tract will stipulate that the county
and state will share the cost of main
tanning the road on a $3.50 basis.
Under the law the cost of maintain
ing the state highway is to be Jointly
borne by the state and the county
through which the road runs. The di-
vision of the cost is to be such as is
mutually agreed upon, but the county
cannot be compelled TO pay more
than so per cent.
BY some this contract has been
confused with the contract with the
paving company that built the road
mentioned. In this the company is
bonded to guarantee quality of the
paving work. The contract with the
state has reference to the upkeep of
the road; keeping culverts in repair
and looking after drainage and other
matters in the general maintenance of
the road.

To Weston belongs the honor of be-
ing the first town i'm UmatiIla county
to go over the top in the second Red
Cross war drive. j. ii. Price is dist
rfct chairman and reported that the
town had passed its quota Saturday
night. The day of the election was
largely devoted to the Red Cross drive
and the following day, Saturday, il
was finished up. Wcston's quota is
$500, and the amount subscribed is a
little over $500.
Homer i. Watts, district chairman
OF the drive at Athena, has also re-
ported that no expects to be able to
report this evening that place Is over
the top. He is making strong effort
TO complete the work and thinks
without doubt he will be able 70 say

Mr.. Nj. II. Chessman, secretary of
the UmatiAIa County Patriotic Service
League. states that in all parts of the
county committees have taken hold of
the drive work in an energetic manner.
The work is going ahead with a punch
that will land the county over the top
in a very short time. Few commit
tees have yet reported the result of
their work, other than that they are
meeting with success everywhere.
Very few complaints have been made
of the assessments made by the COM
mittee in charge of the work. Those
that have been made have generally
been found justifiable.
While he does not feel at this time
that it would be fair to make the

Coats for general wear-it almost
goes without saying-should be wealth
erproof; but weatherproof garments
have to be that and much more to
meet the approval of the sophisticated
woman of today. She requires crisp
style and substantial quality in them
and cheerful cOlors.
Two rainproof coats that declare
themselves ready to meet the most
critical eye are pictured above. The
only departure they make from the
rules that govern in the seasons coat
styles, appear in the matter of length.
Nearly all coats are several inches
shorter than the frock worn under
them, but the rainproof coat is priv
iIeged to be an inch or so longer.
The coat at the left is a smart ex-
ample of the military style and moth
ing will be quite so appropriate for a
coat for all weathers. 1t has big patch
pockets on body and skirt, a convert
able collar and narrow, loose belt of
the fabric. 1t fastens with fly, to
the left of the front and is equal to
protecting the gown under it perfectly.
1t is of a fabric resembling covert
cloth, in every way to be recon-
mended.
The story of the coat at the right is
told so completely in the picture that
