Treaty Forced by Arms
Would Not Be Binding

Washington, Feb. 20.-Germany's
peace treaty with Russia, if forced to
signature under the threat of arms,
may not stand in the last reckoning at
the big peace table Some international
authorities believed today that the al
lies and America will insist that it is
not binding-with its grab of the
border lands and its reported indemni-
ty-in view of the fact that it would
be signed by Russia under duress.
With German armies sweeping into
Russia against an urUesisting and hope
lessly disorganized people, the Lenine
Troesky announcement that the Rus
slams would sign the treaty was re-
garded here as a step in self protection.
ton. The fact that it would be signed
by a regime not even recognized as a
de facto government will also have
weight in the final determinations.
That the treaty will lull the German
and Austrian people into a happier
mood as to eastern conditions is re-
garded likely here. Otherwise it means
little, though it would mean supplies
for Germany, in the course of time.
Germany can scarcely strip the east
line Of any more troops for the west
front, it is held here.
Authorities see no hope of a re-
organized fighting force in Russia. Her
army, about demobilized, cannot be re-
made into fighting force in any reu-
sonable time.

was granted today by the adiutant
generals department for the organiza-
tion of the corps, motorists hail with

required for the conveying of troops
rapidly to any point the military au-
thorities may desire. Acting Adiutant
General John M. Williams states that
such an organization would be of the
utmost value to the state of Oregon,
owing to its great strategical value.
The review ON April goth will be
followed by "raid by large enemy
forces'' somewhere on the Columbia,
which it will be the duty of the corps
to repel. AS mobility is the primary
motive of the corps efforts are being
made to have the speed limits shot to
the winds during such times as the
corps is Gin action" Similar schemes
will be held at intervals in conjunc-
ion with existing military bodies.
The organization will be known as
the State of Oregon Volunteer Auto
mobile Corps, each member of which
will be entitled to fly from his car a
specially designed flag. The corps will
consist of four squadrons of four
trains. Each train will be composed
of 27 cars, or total of 435 cars, in
cluding three staff cars. One motor
truck for the carrying of supplies in
the way of oil, gasoline, food, etc,
will be attached to each train. Four

Mayor Gill Badly
Defeated'Tn Seattle Primary

Seattle, Wash, Feb. 20.-The elm
ination of Mayor Hiram G. Gill from
the city election here continued to be
the political wonder of Seattle today.
Yesterdays primaries, which nom
mated two candidates for mayor, left
Gill poor third. The election will be
held Tuesday, March 5.
Ole Hanson, real estate man, led the
primaries with BIAS votes. James E.
Bradford was second with II ,661. Gill
received 5000 votes. Hanson and
Bradford will be the candidates for
mayor The balance of the votes cast
were divided among four other can
didates.
Gill s elimination followed his recent
disbarment because of alleged solicit
ing by the law firm of which he is a
member, of Legal business from places
of shady reputation. Prior to that
Gill became involved in difficulties
with Major General H. A. Green, com
manding officer of Camp Lewis, and
as result, military ban was placed
on Seattle for several weeks.

ton with the Commercial club.
To warrant the establishment of a
factory at this place it will be neces-
