LEPERS SET SPLENDID
EXAMPLE IN SAVINGS
Colony Of Unfortunates In FarawaJ
Hawaii Buys War Savings Stamps
At $62 Per Capita.

Recent reports from Honolulu con-
tain an interesting and unusual les
son in thrift which may be considered
a record for the states to attempt
Sales of War Savings and Ihrl1t
Stamps among the inmates OF the Pen
ikese Island Leper Colony during July
amounted to ss2 per capita. Alto
gether 80 purchasers of these securl'
ties took a total Of 1884 Of stamps.
When it is considered that this
amount is far more than the per capi-
ta quota for the United States it Is
apparent that the optimism OF, these
lepers, despite their station in lie, is
little less than remarkable.
Up to date the total sales OF war
Savings and Thrift Stamps in Hawaii
is more than 5000, 900, or more thaa
"s2e, 900 In excess Of it's quota.

TELLS HOW OTHER
PEOPLE GET AHEAD
Pamphlet Issued by U. 8. Treasury
Answers Question "How Can
Save Money"

As an answer to the question, "How
Can l Save Money!" the Savings Di.
vision of the Treasury Department has
compiled. an interesting and helpful
pamphlet entitled How Other IeopIe
Get Ahead
For individuals and families whose
Incomes are less than $4,000 4 year
this pamphlet offers number Of en-
Tightening suggestions as to the dis
bursement Of incomes Of various
amounts from SIS a week upward. Not
only does the material furnish ready
answer to the problem Of expenses,
but it affords an authentic source OF
Information as to living costs. The
figures were compiled from records OF
official government investigations into
the several subjects and may be re-
garded as up to date and accurate.
This material makes possible a
new attack in the movement to make
thrift nationaIscharacteristic and tc
foster the habit Of Save First-Spcnd
Afterward." It will interest people IN
saving more money by showing shem
how much other people ind it possible
to save and also by showing them how
they can cut down the cost Of liv;ns
comparing their costs with average
costs at the same income.
The Savings Division suggests that
an excellent way to drive home the
truths Of the budget system is to have
the schedules discussed at school and
taken home by the children for con
sideration by the families. Another
method is to organize house-to-house
canvass through committees Of wo
men who will bring the budgets tc
the attention Of families and secure
their agreement to study their OWL
situation
Saving and spending budgets have
been prepared to meet local condi
tions at a number of points, and much
interest in the application Of the bud
gets to the campaign is being mani
tested in sections Of the country
where the National Thrift Campaign
is being carried out successfully.

Built by Women.
1t is related that the cathedral was
built through the efforts Of woman,
noted saint whose name have
forgotten but whose shrine I remem-
ber seeing in the cathedral. This
woman, so the story goes, had Won
derful vision and it was told to her
that she should build a cathedral in
this vahage of Lourdes hard by this
sacred pool, and the cathedral stands
today monument to God and this
sanity woman whose memory the
people bless.
A part of the cathedral and a
ource of wonder are a number of
statues of the Twelve Apostles and
other saints placed at various inter-
walls along a sort Of winding trail
leading into the Pyraneess The story
of the crucifxtion of Christ is told
in statuary along the way. There is
statue illustrating his trial by Pom
thus Plate; his journey to Calvary
and finally his crucifixtion upon the
cross and his being laid away in the
sepulchre, all wonderfully wrought
in massive bronze.
There were perhaps a hundred
soldiers, Red Cross nurses and '3Y"
workers in the party who visited the
church at the time I did. Included in
the party was a Catholic chaplain of
the army. He engaged, in converse
ton with priest who had been in
the service of the cathedral at Lour-
des nineteen years, kindly soul
with the light Of God upon his face
and who related to our chaplain
much of the history Of the cathedral
and many interesting facts in con-
nection with it. He in turn interp-
reted the priests story to us as I
have told it here. -.
The priest said that he had seen
many impressive ceremonies perform
ed in the cathedral, he had seen
some of the most eminent men of the
world who had come there to visit it.
"But the most inspiring scene / have
ever witnessed" he told the chap
lain, twas week or ten days before
the visit of you boys here when more
than 5000 American soldiers Of Ro-
man Catholic faith, each carrying a
lighted candle in accordance with
Catholic custom, passed through the
cathedral and lnelt before the shrine
of the Christ and the virgin his
mother, each man tough soldier,
veteran Of many battle and many a
skirmish-3,000 men kneeling in
deep rever4nce before the image of,
the Christ
/ The Catholic members of my own
party knelt before the various
shrines and crossed themselves and
performed other ceremonies as do all
good Roman Catholics. We who were
Protsetants merely stood in respect
full and reverent silence: We knew
nothing else to do.
But the visit to the beautiful ca
thedral impressed me very much. l
shall not soon forget the picture of
that sweet faced old Roman Catholic
priest and what seemed to me the
wierd strangeness and grave solemn
ity of it all.

CONSPIRACY OF
Cement FIRMS
IS UNCOVERED

Portland, Or, Oct. 24.-Important
revelations of an alleged conspiracy
between cement manufacturers OF
California and Oregon to exclude
Washington mills from the Oregon
trade field were interpreted in feder-
al court today by Deputy United
States District Attorney -Goldstein
from correspondence between Tyler
Henshaw, president of the Riverside
Portland Cement company, and G. w.
Jones, Portland agent for the Port
land.
How the trade of the Washington
mills was curtailed by an alleged
combination of Oregon and Califor-
mia mills came out while Henshaw
was a witness in the case of the Unit
ed States VS. r. p. Buchart, president,
and Clark M. Moore, secretary of the
Oregon Portland Cement company.
Territory Divided
According to the intimations Gold
stein sought to bring out, Southern
California cement mills agreed with
northern California mills as to di-
vision of territory. Later there fol-
lowed conference of Pacific coast
manufacturers at San Francisco, at
which, Henshaw testified, no member
of his company was present, at which
the Washington millers agreed to
keep out of Oregon.
The Riverside company consequent-
ly withd W from the Oregon field to
permit the trade to be monopolized
by northern California mills and the
one Oregon manufacturer. This, Hen
shaw characterized as an act of char
ity' purely On the part Of the River
side company
Fluctuations of cement prices with

culiar financial deals in cement sell

depreciation put upon Henshaw's cor

MAYNARD FIRST
But PEARSON'S
FLIGHT Fastest

Washington. Oct "a. - Omitted
Press. )--Lieutenant BeIvin w. May
nard's iaurels as the winner of the
army transcontinental air derby are
secure. 1t was stated authoritatively at
the air service department today. This
Is the situation as 1t was summarized
by air service officials:
Lieutenant Maynard won the race,
being the first to make the round trip.
Lieutenant Alexander Pearson, .Jr.,
was the winner in actual flying time.
Captain J. o. Donaldson was the
winner in reliability.
The big idea of the race, 1t was stat
ed, waste get across the country and
back as soon as possible. Maynard
was first across and first back.
Another feature was actual flying
speed. Lieutenant Pearson was the
winner. He flew from San Francisco
to New York in 81 hours 81 minutes
and "a seconds actual flying time-an
average of 1895 miles an hour. His
time for the return trip was 26 hours,
as minutes and Sc seconds, an average
of 1909 miles an hour
The third angle OF the race was re-
liability. Captain Donaldson won this
feature. He was the second man to
arrive, He flew a single seated plane
without mechanician and he did not
change engines during the trip as did
both Maynard and Pearson.
To date Maynard stands fourth in
point Of actual flying time---time act
ually spent in the air.

RACEFOR RECORD
Starts ACTION
TO ENFORCE Law

Charging the district attorneys of
Clatsop, Columbia and Multnomah
counties with the rigid enforcement of
speed laws and enjoining them to vim
dicate the law if it has been violated
in the past, Attorney General George
M. Brown has written the three attor-
Ineys in a letter which will go out to-
day. The action marks, what is taken
as the beginning of state crusade
against speeding and other infractions
of the traffic laws
The specific case cited in the letter
as being one of the most flagrant vio-
lations brought to the attention Of the
attorney general is the trip taken by
Forrest Bradley of Mt. Scott at the
wheel Of an automobile and accompa-
MED by George ". Adams. salesman
for the c. l.. Boss Automobile COM
pany, In which it is alleged that the
journey from Portland to Astoria, a
distance of los miles, Was made III two
hours and 21 minutes. Mr.. Brown sets
forth that complaints reaching his Of
flee are to the effect that automobile
dealers Of Portland are attempting ito
hang up records for their cars and in
SO doing are violating criminal law
of the state.
Mr.. Brown state that he has no di-
rect evidence but quote an article
which appeared in Portland news
paper Of October IL. The article de-
scribes the trip of Bradley and Adams
and says in part.
Again ON Tuesday, leaving Portland
at o'clock, Adams and Bradley set
out to cut this three hours down to at
least two hours and 80 minutes. As II
will be recalled, it was very foggy
Tuesday morning, the fog hanging low
in Portland until nearly noon
despite this fog, these daredevil
drivers made it to Scappoose, 22 miles
from Portland, in 19h minutes. But
ethey nearly ditched the car and broke
their own necks when they swung
sbl OQiN q GQlyV 81 w ihhSS slAi law
and through the fog descerned a COW
standing In the middle of the pave
ment."
Attorney General Brown cites chap
ter 500, general laws Of 1919, section
16, which provides that no race shall
be held on the public streets, roads OF
highways without special permission
from the authorities and unless the
section is patrolled for the entire dis
tance.
/, Section II of the same chapter lin
| its the speed to 80 miles an hour and
the driving must be done ''in care
full and prudent manner" and that the
driving at speed sgreater than sc
miles an hour for quarter mile con-
stitutes violation of the law.
In conclusion the attorney genera
says:
The state of Oregon is being bond.
ed for millions of dollars to provide
highways for the public, and no man
whether he rides in an automobile OIL
not. has any right to make travel over
such highways dangerous"
