By BeIgianS During
German Occupation

BRUSSELS, Jan. 13-(Associated
Press)-Stories of heroism patriotism
and devotion of Belgians during the
German occupation are continually
coming to the surface of the miasmal
pool of intrigue, %treachery and sell
fishness which the Germans left be
hind in Belgium.
How two men gave up their lives
and two went to prison for a period
which would have lasted twenty years
had the Germans been victorious, that
the man higher up" might live and
continue managing the underground
organization which was sending valu-
able information out of the occupied
country has now been related to the
Associated Press correspondent by
the man whose life was saved by
their sacrifice.
Adolphe Buyl, liberal member of
the Belgian Parliament, Alderman of
the Commune of Ielles in the city OF
Brussels, is the man for whom two men
died and who for four years conduct
ed the organization and lived con-
tinually in the fear of execution by
Germans.
Late in 1914 the Germans had not

their graves many young Belgians at

had access to the seals of the NUM-

sometimes as many as fifty young
men would assemble, reaching the

there in the hand of a different man
every night. Passports and identif-
cation blanks were there, and the
young men would emerge from the
cafes supplied with proper, or rather
improper identification and make
their way into Holland and thence
join the Belgian Army battling on
the User. More than n thousand
men were sent out between October,
1914, and February, 1915.
Then the Germans became aware
of the leak and the frontier was
Theoretically electrically sealed and
the work became more dangerous
and difficult. Guides had to be pro

line and other commodities across
the Dutch border-who for a consid'

cutters were necessary tools of their
trade and many a German sentry was
found by his relief with a knife deep
~ sunk in his throat and lying along
side a break in the wire fence.
At no time were there less than
one hundred men engaged in the
work. They included railroad sta

carriers, cafe keepers and many 9TH

IN MEMORY OF ROOSEVELT

WHEREAS, Theodore Roosevelt has reached that earthly
end to which all must come; and
WHEREAS, We believe that the loss of no other American
citizen could have so deeply moved the hearts of the people of
the United States, be they on the American Continent, the battle
fields OF Europe, in strife torn Asia, or the Isles of the Sea, as
that of Theodore Roosevelt; and
WHEREAS, By millions of his fellow citizens, and count
less numbers of citizens and subjects of other enlightened coun-
tries, he is held to be the greatest American of his day; and
WHEREAS, His influence for good citizenship, for pure
living, for right thinking, and for personal courage extends not
only over the United States and the fartherest outposts OF Am
erlcan jurisdiction, but to every land inhabited by thinking men;
WHEREAS, His removal from our midst at this time,
when, of all others, men OF vision, courage and decision, are
most needed, is keenly felt, not only by the people of our own
Nation, but by those of other nations throughout the War
we have that his ideals of manhood, his inspiration of national
Virity and honor that he taught and lived, have caused such to
be more firmly established, more deeply reyered, and better I'M
derstood in the Country in which he lived because of his having
lived; and
WHEREAS, Though his personal activities have ceased,
we believe those forces for good which he set in motion will
continue as an inspiration to all true men throughout the future,
and IN years to come historians will acclaim him a citizen Of the
World.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Maui
Chamber of Commerce of the Territory of Hawaii express with
sincere respect and sympathy these sentiments of its members

WILSON HAS DINNER WITH CONGRESSMAN
(Rv The Associated PreSS)

WASHINGTON, February 27-President Wilson does not APP
prove the sending OF a joint congressional committee to the inter-Alied
parliamentary conference at Paris during the peace negotiations. Sen
aor Hitchcock said the President feels that this might cause confusion
of details.
The Presidents conference with congressman at the White House
dinner last night developed that the President intends to make no form
al expression at present on tentative draft.
Republicans stated that Wilson's discussion emphasized the need
for IN amendment to establish precisely the many important principles
beyond the controversy. Some congressman gained the impression that
the President is willing to accept the amendment proposed of a const-
tutlonal guarantee for maintenance of the Monroe Doctrine.

AGRICULTURAL LABOR
PROBLEM

For the development of the re-
sources of the West nothing would
help SO much as an abundance oi
available farm labor.
BY this is not meant school child
rem, women, store clerks, city buns.
tramps or labor that must be forced
to work.
Organized labor, composed OF
skilled men and women in the trades
union would lose nothing from
abundant farm labor.
San Francisco labor leaders are
said to be dissatisfied with the out
come of the farm labor conference
held in the Ferry building recently.
1t is said that the conference was
dominated by farm interests that
were not inclined to give the work
ers the consideration labor men
should have been given.
In spite of the apparent increasing
degree of unemployment in cities
the conference maintained that there
is and will be shortage of farm
labor.
The conference went on record
to petition Congress to remove all
bars to immigration in order that
unrestricted immigration may flow
into the United States.
The American Federation of Labor
will oppose any legislation in this
direction.
AS it stands, organized labor uses
the high cost of living to keep wages
at figure so high no farmer can
afford to employ it, and the cost of
farm production cannot come down
without larger supply of cheaper
farm labor.-The Manufacturer.

WORLD TRADE GROWTH In
A CENTURY

The cnieI causes oil the growth of
international commerce from less
than S2,000,000,000 in 1918. to ap-
proximately $4,000, 100000 in
1918, is discussed in statement
made public by the National City
Bank of New York. Growth in
population, cheapening in transporta-
lion, and a division of labor among
groups of men the world over were,
according to the bank, the chief
causes of this expansion.
I'VE can scarcely realize" the
statement said, that man, who had
only been able to build up world
trade of $4,000, 100000 year in all
the centuries of his life upon the
globe, should have suddenly in one
century, increased it to $4,000, o Co.,
600. When Daniel bod, Virginia
engine builder, came in 1918 to New
York, then holding only 10000
people, filled with the idea thar ne
could build an engine which would
drive vessel across the Atlantic.
and persuaded Francis Fickel 10
build the ship for him, they jointly
laid one section of the foundation
for the tremendous growth Of world
commerce. The others are the rail
roads, the telegraphs, the telephones,
and the financial and banking sys-
tens,
ut was just 100 years ago that
the little steamer. the Savannah,
built In New York for the TRANS
atlantic experiment, passed out OF
New York to Savannah, Ca, which
port it left few months later on its
successful venture across the ocean,
to which the steamship was, up to
that time, unknown. By 1859 world
International trade had grown 10
$4,000, 100000; by 1900 it was S7e--
600, 100000; 1913, $4,000, ,G0a- -e0e .
and in the year just ending aggre-
gated probably $50,000,00u.toG
when measured in the inflated cur
rency of the present period. Mean
time world railways had grown to
725,000 miles. 1t is difficult to
realize that only 100 years ago the
world had no steamship crossing the
ocean, not mile of railway or a
foot Of telegraph or ocean cable.
while as for telephones, wireless tel
egraphy, or flying machines, they are
the product of the present genera
tion."

BRING BACK OUR HOOVER

Some people may not appreciate
the work of Mr. Hoover but the Am
erican farmers are about to rise in
their places and sing, Bring Back
My Hoover To Me-
Though, until few days ago, a
number of American farmers may
not have thought much of Hoover.
But when the food administration
lifted the milling regulations the
other day and allowed the American
millers to go as they please, and
charge as they desired, the rural
contingent woke up with yell.
The first thing the millers did was
to boost the price of mill feeds from
five to eighteen dollars ton.
Miil-feeds are the by-products
from the wheat.
They form the basic feeds for the
dairy and stock-raislng industries.
To boost these feeds from fifteen
to fifty per cent in an afternoon over
the entire country, and that was
what was done, meant that hundreds
of thousands of farmers saw their
winters profits pocketed in a day,
and pocketed by the millers, because
farmers and dairymen must have
mill feeds if they feed their stock.
In time the poor city consumer
will foot the bill, also the farmers
will cut down their flocks and droves
and herds by the hundred thousand,
but for some months the farmer will
carry the burden and bear the loss.
Only the work of Hoover pre-
vented this sort of thing the last two
years, and not only enabled the farm
er to live, and the consumer to get
foodstuffs at a reasonable price, but
enabled the nation of workers to
have butter and milk and wheat -four
and sugar AT ALL .
Uncle Sam let Hoover go away
from his job too soon.
As the tables of the nation will
show In three months-or less--if
the millers and the packers and the
commission men are given full sway
as of old

WOOL INDUSTRY TO BE
SAFE-GUARDED

Western wool men were en-
couraged by government solicitation
and the inducement of war prices to
increase their f1ocks and they are
now seeking protection from spec
ulative movement to drive down
prices, in which imports and govern
ment holdings are being used to try
and accomplish disastrous results in
the wool industry, and that is vital
to the whole nation.
With the beginning of the year
the war industries board has gone
out of existence and marks the end
of government control but this does
not mean the industry shall not get
favorable consideration.
A bill has been introduced in Con-
gress to give the President power to
fix rates of duty arbitrarily to
prevent slumping markets against
its own supply and incidentally pro-
tect Western growers.
The work of the Boston Wool
Trading Association is to be broad
ened during the coming season and
the warehousing system is to be con-
tinued for the protection of the
growers.
Under that system the grower con.
signs his wool to where it is sorted
graded and baled, and then sold for
him on guaranteed samples in some
thirty varieties.
The grower gets all there is in his
wool and has every incentive to
grade up his fiocks and permanently
improve his holdings, while the evils
of speculation are eliminated.

Heppners schools will not open be-
fore the first Monday in February,
and possibly not then, it will depend
entirely on what the influenza situa-
ton is at that time. The city health
authorities are trying to get the up
per hand of the epidemic, and are be-
ginning to do so. They are satisfied
that the return of children to school
too soon after getting over the dis
ease was the means of spreading the
epidemic the second time through the
school and they will not run this risk
again. We shall have to be patient
in this regard and trust to the good
judgment of those who are giving
their time and energy to the wiping
out of the plague. The children are
all young and will have plenty of
time to make up wnat they will have
lost by reason of the enforced yaca-
tion.
