y. Graham OF this city who has been
named Pendleton chairman for the
associate membership campaign.
Pendleton has had BOY Scout
troop at different times in the past
and Mr.Graham is confident that the
organization can be revived. He is at
present looking for Il scout master who
will take charge of the matter. but
until that time he will be actively en-
gagged himself in arousing the inter
est of local boys in troop.
The campaign for one million asso-
ciate members has been given the
backing and APPROVAL of President Will
son, the Red Cross and similar ma
tional personages and societies.
America has 1O.000,000 boys be-
tween the ages of IL and IL and the
campaign is launched in the hope of
extending the benefits of the Boys
Scouts movement to every community
in which they live. William G.. Nc
Adoo is at the head of the work while
Edward Cookingham is state chairman
for oregon. He win be in charge of
enlisting Oregon's quota, which is o.
500 members.
Follinw is an extract from Presl,
dent Wilson's proclamation for the
Boy Scout week
The Boy Scouts of America have
rendered notable service to the Nation
during the world war. They have
done effective work in the Liberty
Loan and War Savings campaigns, In
discovering and reporting upon the
black walnut supply, in cooperating
with the RedCross and other war
work agencies, in acting as despatch
bearers for the Committee on Public
and in other important
fields The Boy Scouts have not only
demonstrated their worth to the nation
but have also materially contributed to
n deeper appreciation by the American
people of the higher conception of pa
triotism and good citizenship.
The Boy Scout Movement should
not only be preserved, but strengthen

Iic-spirited citizens. The availa bic /

INFORMATION fegarofnB one OF Int
most successful experiences in thu
employment of Negroes ever under
taken in this eontry has been received
by the Director Of Negro Economics
Department Of Labor, from r NJ
Andrews, one Of It's field investigat-
ors in North Carolina, in a report
on the policy of large manufaetur-
ing company operating IL plants in
the United States and Canada The
North Carolina plant investigated by
Mr.. Andrews Is said to be typical of
the lot
In view of the facts recently
brought out by the investigators Of
Negro migration in 1867, and the
consequent labor shortages in GER
tain parts Of the South, the report
is of very practical interests, for the
Negroes employed by this company
are SO well satisfied with conditions
that they seldom leave their employ
ment.
At the North Carionia plant, 900
of the 100 workers are Negroes,
mostly from North Carolina, Georgia
and Mississippi. The company ex-
poets soon to employ 1900 Negroes
there. The total Negro population
of the town is about 1000.
The average worker makes 500
month without difficulty, working an
S-hour day, and as the work is not
physically exaeting, can almost dou-
bic this amount through overtime.
The company also pays a monthly
bonus increasing with length of serv-
ice. The plant is equipped with steel
lockers, individual wash bowls, and
shower baths. Every effort is made
to provide facilities necessary for
comfort and cleanliness.
The Negro colony is composed of
well-built houses, equipped with run
ming water and electric lights. Rents
are low, and the homes may be pur-
chased on a 1o-year plan. Home
buying is encouraged and every home
has a garden plot. The company
pays for a school, open nine months
IN the year. There is night school
for workers who wish to study. Boys
more than II years of age employed
m the plant are released for school
q part of the time during
the day.
Many Negroes are engaged in bus
mess enterprises. They operate board
ng houses, cafes, a dance hall and
= drug store. A white firm operates
= pool room and picture theatre for
,olored workmen. The company is
building hospital and two churches,
md is assisting the Supervisor of
Negro Economies for North Carolina
n an educational campaign to pro-
note thrift and efficiency among the
workers.
Only intelligent and self-respecting
workers are employed, and married
men are given the preference. Col

MONEY AND MAIDENS.

The well-written article by Mr.. I.

readers food for thought. We did
considerable bordering of the mat
ter ourselves. At first blush the
writer's plant seems plausible
enough. Jewish young men, &C
cording to his observations, are
very mercenary. When they enter
the matrimonial market they seem
to be interested more in the dow
ries than in the daughters. The
daughters are, therefore, compelled
to receive the attentions of Gentle
suitors who seem to care more for
the Jewish maiden than the Jew
ish money. Hence inter-marriage,
which is becoming more prevalent
from year to year.
We believe that the writer is mis-
taken in both-his observations and
conclusion. There is no. basis in
fact for the assumption that Jewish

WHAT ABOUT THE RED
MOGEN DAVID?

The Red Mogen David, the Jew
ish equivalent of the Red Cross,
has in the last two years or SO been
a prominent link in the chain OF
Jewish nationalist activities. 1t has
been made prominent by it's pub
licity campaign, by the repeated
"drives" of the many local chapters
and by it's frequent reports Of work
actually done. The Jewish public,
especially that portion of it that is
Zionistically inclined, has come to
look upon it as most efficient and
benefcent auxiliary force in the re-
Mobilization of the Jewish home
land.
Such items as the following,
which from time to time appear in
the Jewish press, have always been
welcome and stimulating news for
the Jewish public. The item is of
recent date and reads:
'Hundreds of American youths
who enlisted in the British Ex-
peditionary Force and fought as
Jewish Legionaires in Palestine
will make their permanent homes
in the Holy Land, it was announced
today by the American Red Mogen
David upon receipt Of cablegram
from the Palestinian Red Mogen

gen David have at last seen fit to
do something. They have actually
opened large hut to supply Jew
ish soldiers with refreshments and
writing paper; but they are only
sold to the boys for good money.
And they still continue "shnorring"
from the Jewish public. Whenever
they are asked for an accounting,
they explain that they need SO and
so much money to pay their or
ganizers, typists, secretaries, speak
ers, helpers and helpers helpers, or
to bride two or three legionaries to
send occasional lying reports Of the
good work done for them.
So far our critic We are accus-
toned to seeing and hearing attacks
on organizations and institutions,
especially those connected with Ii
onism, by disgruntled individuals,
by such as have axes to grind, or
selfish purposes to serve, or such
as seek leadership and fail to attain
it, or by ordinary notoriety seekers.
But this cannot be said of Mr..
Zelikowitz, nor of the journalistic
medium used by him, the Jewish
Daily News. We are forced to as
sumo that the criticism of the Red
MOpen David is honest and sincere.
The organization has branches
in the Twin Cities and in other
communities of the Northwest We
shall be pleased to know that the
local leaders and workers are pay
ing some attention to these charges,
are making their own inquiries and
Investigations and are prepared to
offer some explanation that will
really explain.
