10000 DOCTORS AND
10000 ARMY NURSES

NEW YORK, June 1S,-More than
10000 physicians and surgeons and
10000 nurses have enrolled in the

partment enlisted personnel has been
built up 20 100. 900 men. declaRd
Surgeon-General Williams c. Gorahs,

the war. in an address here yesterday.
In addition he said the United,
States has contributed 1900 doctors
TO the British service. 600 of whom
went to the front Immediately after
this country became a belIigerent.
Gorgas contrasted the present medi.
cal corps with the force before the
war. when there were less than 600
doctors and 800 nurses and 5000 en-
listed men. In the first month of the
war he said congress considered an
appropriation of $1,OOo,OO0 for the de-

pleases Russian People.
u. S. CONSIDERED
HER BEST FRIEND
After July A Slowing up of
Troop Transport to
France Will Give
Opportunity.
fcARL ID. GRoATN

WASHINGTON, June 13.-The
American government is striving
hard to arrange to send troops to
Russia under Russo-American aead-
ership. Russia will not approve an
expedition under Japanese leadership
but considers the United States her
best friend, 1t is reliably learned.
The government wishes to report
July 4 that a million Americans have
gone to Europe. Thereafter we must
slow up troop transport, thus hurry
ing supplies. This slowing will give
an opportunity to aid Russia with
troops. Many difficulties are faced
admittedly. but government leaders
are striving to their utmost for a So
luton.
GREAT NUMBERS UNNECESSARY
The proposal receiving the greatest
support is the use of troop ships aft
er July 5th to convey American
troops to Russia. A vast force is not
necessary Loyal Russians. available
allies and Japanese and Chinese will
compose the balance OF the great in
ternationai expedition. The purpose
is rescue work and n guarantee
against territorial aggrandizement.
Secy. Baker recently warned the
newspapers against predicting the
fall and winter troop figures. This
Ia because supplies must suplant
troos after July. After supplies are
adequate. heavy troop shipments will
be resumed.

BRIEF, DRENCHING RAIN AIDS
CROPS BUT MORE is NEEDED
Rainfall Was General Over
Most of Umatilla
County.

Eleven one-hundredths OF an inch
Is tho amount of the rain reported
by the weather bureau in Pendleton
yesterday. 1t seems to have broken
the hot spell and much good will re-
suit to the grain fields of Umatilla
county though It was far short OF
being the soaking rain needed.
The rain yesterday afternoon, ac-
cording TO all reports was quite gem
eral. Reports from different parts of
the counnty's grain district show
good showers as far west as Nolln,
Echo. Butter creek and south to Pl-
lot Rock and the mountains. This
Is the part In greatest need of rain
and while there are some fields for
which the moisture came too late
there are others that will be greatly
benefited and viii harvest fairly good
crops II seems that the extremely
hot spell that had prevailed for sew
eraI days has been broken and with
the recurrence of a few more such
showers as yesterday the light lands
of Umatilla county Will yet Produce b
large amount of grain.
From other parts of the County
the same reports. come indicating a
general rain, though in all cases short
of the amount needed. At Athena
and as far east asWalla Walla the
rain was accompanied by n heavy
wind and severe electrical storm.
Large branches were broken off
trees and telephone poles snapped off
at the ground. Some damage was
done at Milton and Fred#ater to ripe /
cherries on the trees. Cherry pick
ing will be held up some as a conse- |
quence.

MAY EXTEND DRAFT
TO MEN OF 45 YEARS

WASHINGTON. June 1S.--Well in
formed congressional leaders forecast
that the war department will ask for
changes in the draft law at the De-
cember short session extending the
draft to all ages between is and As or
40. The act would facilitate the oper-
alton OF inter-allied draft treaties
Crowder does not want to draft men
in the deferred classes but must do so
unless more first class men are pro-
vided. Hence he will extend the
limits.
Congressman understand he would
not use men under 21 nor over S5 in
the army but will draft them for war
work.
The supporters of universal mili-
tary training predicted hill for. the
groundwork for such training.

STOCKHOLM, June IA staff
correspondent of the Arbiter Zeitung
told me "Austrias food situation is
again most serious. The government
| is not fulfilling its food promises
made to squelch the January strikes.
They can expect most serious con-
sequences because the population is
desperate"
The Austrian newspaperman said
the food situation in Austria always
was worse than in Germany. Food
from Ukrania is problematical. Ger
many not relying on UkraiRian food,
has reduced the daily bread ration to
half an ounce. Flour in Austria costs
$40 pound. Butter is "a pounl.
The Vienna population is getting less
than 35 per cent of the normal rations.
The mayor demanded the government
to act Immediately to prevent serious
consequences. The political situation
is likewise critical as a result of En-
peror Karl's peace letters. A Reichs-
rath meeting is postponed indefinite
ly. A movement of Serbians, Croats
and Slovaks for a single Serb nation
is rapidly growing.
DISTURBANCES SERIOUS.
Recently there was a severe battle
between the Germans. and .slovaks Ia,
Vindishgratz and most serious dis
turbances occurred at Leibach. The
Bohemfans demand complete inde-
pendence. Austrian socialists are vi
gorous but there is no hope for peace.
because Germany refuses to listen 20
a democratic peace.
The Reichsrath is strangled with
fear because people are demanding
strong action against war profitters
and landholders and a fair division of
the coming harvest. But above all the
Reichsrath fears it's own debates on
war and peace and political events
and Emperor Karl's letters.
