Company Says
It Cannot Afford
to Supply District

A reply from the Portland Light,
Water & Power Company has been re-
ceived by the Public Service Commits
sion to the request filed by P. M. Ru-
pert and other citizens living south of
the city limits asking that the company
be required to furnish electric light
service. The matter will probably be
acted on by the commission within a
few days.
The request of the Salem people
stated that it would be possible, at a
small cost, for the light company to
furnish juice to the residents of the
district, who are without electric
lights at present. Several requests
have been made to the company, but no
action was taken, and an appeal to the
state commission was made.
The company. in replying, gives the
cost of coupling the district for electric
lights as $~5,155.71, including wiring
and poles, and this, it is declared, it
too great an expense for the amount
of business which would be done after

To Talk Thrift Stamps
Tomorrow Morning
$4,000 Worth Sold Daily

G. N. Wonacott. associate director
of the Oregon War Savings committee,
will speak on thrift stamps and war
savings at the commercial club rooms
at 10 O'Clock tomorrow. Mr.. Wonacott
has been called to the county by the
local committee in charge Of the thrift
stamp campaign and he will instruct
the members of the county committee
in what ust be done in the coming
drive.
The preparations for the thrift
stamp campaign which starts next
week are practically completed, and
will be finished at the meeting tomor-
row. The necessary supplies, circulars,
order blanks, ETC., have been sent out
to the various districts, and each dis
trict will be expected to make a house
to house canvass of every family in
their section.
The total sales of stamps in the coun
ty at present is $6S,2lS. This is less
than seven per cent of the quota for
the county, and the sale will have to
be materially increased if the county
is to succeed. An average Of $4,000
daily is being sold at present, and this
average has been maintained for the
past week. 1t is hoped to increase the
average after the campaign is over.
The Garfield school of Salem reports
the sale of a total of $1215 in thrift
stamps. 1t is leading the remainder of
the Salem schools in the stamp work.

TO PASS DRAFT BILL TODAY7
House and Senate Debate Time for
Calling Youths to Service.

Washington, Aug. 23.-Taking up the
man-pOwer bill, changing the army
draft age limits to eighteen and forty
Ave years, both branches of congress
debated the measure, with the leaders
planning its passage by the house late
today and by the senate Saturday.
Spirited speeches urging that the need
ed man-power for the army is counted
upon to crush the enemy next year
were made with crowded galleries.
Discussion In both senate and house
centered upon opposition from some
members calling youths Of eighteen to
the colOrs. Chamberlain Of Oregon
championed the "work or fight" amend
ment Of his committee. An amend
ment proposing to make the minimum
draft age twenty instead Of eighteen
was introduced by. Senator Kirby of
Arkansas.
A vigorous speech In behalf Of the
bill was made by Senator Reed Of
Missouri, who urged an army Of 5OO,-
600 Americans in Russia at once, and
predicted this country ultimately must
furnish six million or seven million and
undergo the severe hardsh1ps Of a long
war,
