5OOOAuto Mechanics Effected
By NsD State Licensing Law

It is estimated that there are about
5000 auto mechanics in the state Of
Oregon. They may be divided into five
general elasses-effieient, mediocre,
bad, worse aud fatal. 1t is apparent at
a glance that the high graders are in
the minority; and it was because Of this
fact that the last Legislature provided
by statute for the board Of examiners
for auto mechanics. This board con-
pleted organization recently by the
election of E. E. Boggess, Of Portland,
as president; H. R. Fsneher, of The
Dalles, viee-president; Prof. NJ. L,
Granning, Of Corvallis, secretary.
These men have been "thrcagh the
mill" and rank high as authorities on
mechanical science, and viii be able to
recognize incompetence under any sort
of eamouflage. Early in July they win
begin on & long series Of examinations
that win give the overall squad a
chance to show how much it knows
about automobile construction and re-
iuveRatiOn. Every man who works for
hire on automobiles must take this ex-
animation and then procure a license
before pursuig his vocation further. The
work win be so graded es to provide
first, second and third-elass certificates
aecOrdingto what line of work 4 man is
to follow.
The examinations, which arc now in
course Of preparation, will be classified
so asto accommodate the various class.
es of automobile specialists. As the
Ford ear is the most numerous, an ex-
elusive Ford examination will be pre-.
pared for mechanics who are confined
to Ford stations. Good results aic ex-
peeted from this law and its operation
will be watched with interest by other
states.

now distributing the required blanks

New Securities Offerings.

The new securities offerings original.
ing with domestic enterprises art al
ready unprecedented, but they are like
" to be followed by offerings Of
new knd-thosc growing out Of foreign
financing. As already intimated, the
need Of some positive action is already
admitted by those who are studying
our export relationship. IL is also con.
ceded, however, that such action must
involve the real absorption Of securities
by the American public. The securities
may be Of a kind issued by foreign en-
teprises and resold here, or they may
be the result Of local financing in
which American banks will participate
so that the American banks will par
t:eipate 50 that the American investor
gets the benefit Of a guarantee fur
nished by domestic institutions which
he knows. However the value Of the Is.
sues may be safeguarded, the point is
that they must be absorbed and paid
for out Of savings. This is no time for
a recurrence Of extravagance, but IL is
already. apparent that such a tendency
exists. and that II will make itself man.
ifest unless checked. The reason for
checking IL Is that the banks Of the
country cannot be expected to carry the
load Of European support pending the
time when European business men get
into position to take care Of thebselves.
Undoubtedly whatever plan i adopted
win therefore give rise to some very at
traetive offerings Of securities. The
investor who has a little money to spare
will be able 70 do better for himself
than for a good while past. Now that
much Of the cream has been skinned
off from stocks, II may easily be that

THIEVES PARTIAL TO
! NUMBER 8 FOOTWEAR
Robbers OF Store AT SiIVertOn
Take Shoes All OF Same
Size.

The thief or thieves who broke into
the store of Julius Aim Of Silyerton
Wednesday might were partial to men s
shoes number 5 as all of the eight pairs
of shoes stolea were of this number. ex-
eepting one pair of tan lace English
shoes and this one pair was number
I7h.
Being somewhat familiar with condi-
tiOns, after helping themselves TO eight
pairs of shoes, the thieves broke wood
en- partiti0a between the Aims store
and thet grocery store of Springs &
Banks and instead of going after mer-
chandise, devoted their time to tie safe
where the valuables were kept.
Here again the robbers went at
things In a familiar way as it stems
in closing the safe for that evening,
the proprietors had taken the trouble
to only turn the combination one way
but not throw off the whole combina,
tion. All the thieves had to do to get
into the safe was to turn back the
combination and the safe opened.
From tke safe they helped themselves
to 800 worth Of liberty bonds, sos
worth of war saving stamps in the
name of J. F. Banks, $50 in checks on
SilvertOn banks, $3.50 in currency and
$40 in small change.
In the Aim store, they pried open the
cash register but found only 30 pennies
which they deemed not worth taking.
The thieves entered the Aim store by
climbing two trees, getting oato the
roof and down through the skylight.
They went out the same way. Sheriff
Noodham requests any one having Of
fers of merchandise or liberty bonds
that might have come from either store
TO notify the sheriff's office at Salem.

Sheriff Finds County Jail Bars

Ned MeSherry, who has been staying
in the county Jail at the court house
for several days, under charge Of is

no funds, made at attempt at jail de.

While making his usual evening in

The sheriff found in McSherry's cell
three steel hack saws, each about three
inches long and half an inch WIDE, ana
with them a tin handle about four inch
es lo1g Inserting the saws in the
handle, it was but question of time
and patience to saw through the iron
bars of the cell and corridor.
II seems that McSherry had both and
that he had devoted all his leisure mo-
mentsto saving almost through all the
iron bars that stood between him and
liberty.
Mcsherry professed to know pothing
whatever about the steel saws found in
his cell, although he is the only inmate
of the eoutny Jail and the five bars
that had been sawed off showed signs
of recent work.
1t is customary to give county pris-
oners the liberty of the corridor of the
Jail in the basement Of the court house
during the daytime and to lock them
up in cells at night. Mcsherry had
not only sawed through the bars Of his
cell, but had about completed the job

He is now in solitary confinement
and will probably remain there until

Are Stocks Too High7
In view Of the evident anxiety that is
being exhibited with respect to the use
of reserve funds, resulting as already
seen in high money rates, the question
is fairly asked whether stocks are too
/ hight The course Of events during the
past week does not indicate that the
country thinks so, great power of recov-
cry being shown on Tuesday and We'd
nesday. No one can safely be pro-
phet in the present circumstances, yet
the Indication would seem to be clear
that stocks are not as yet due for any
prolonged decline, while the money sit
uation will probably prevent them from
showing any sensational or dangerous
advance. This would seem to mean that
that the stock market is in more or
less (for it) stable sitation-likely, Of
course, to suffer ups and down, while
given stocks may still afford good spec

the state and is also placing them with
the county clerks. They may also be
obtained direct from the auto neehan-
les examination board by applying to
Box 76l, Portland.
To carry out the work systematically,
the board will start about July on
tour Of the state, stopping at some
convenient points in each county to
hold examinations. With regard to
these Mr.. Granning says:
1.-The examination given will cover
the various specialized activities of the
auto trades, such as general mechanics,
shop men, tire men, starting, lighting
and ignition specialists, battery men,
auto sheet metal workers, radiator men.
cit is the inteation Of the board to
offer at least forms of examination,
namely: Written, oral and manual,
these to be put up in a manner that can
be understood by an mechanic. The ap-
plieant may take examination in any or
all of the subjects for which, in his own
opinion, he is qualified. Upon compile
tion of the examination, applicants will
be rated according to their ability into
at least three classes.
Practical Examination Aim.
"The board win not conduct a theo
retieel examination, as this would not
be fair TO the many excellent meshan-
les who have had no theoretical train
ing, but win confine itsc,s to prae-
tieal examination. The classification of
auto mechanics is intended to serve
dual IUrpose; First, to give credit
where due, and second to act as an IN
centive to other mechanics 20 increase
their knowledge and efficiency along
craft lines, and to improve their posi-
tions. This win undoubtedly result in
a few years in making Oregon auto me-
ehanies the best workmen of their craft
to be found anywhere. The ear owner
will be one of those most benefited" >"

Therm0id Brown Inner Tubes

ThermOd brown inner tubes have been perfect

made ThemOid castings possible.
In their manufacture, only selected up-river
fine Para is used, combined with the smallest per-
centage of other ingredients necessary to tougher
and strengthen the stock to allow vulcanization and
to prevent blooming and the deterioration natural to
pure gums.
ThermOd brown inner ubes will not become bag
gy, wrinkled or pinched but return to their original
shape and dimensions after initiation They can be
repaired over and over again and be as serviceabe
as when new.
BY the Thermoid method of compounding crude
rubber the fibre or grain of the rubber is not de-
strOyed This produces tube which will resist to the
utmost the stress and strain all inner tubes must
bear in service.
The stock used in Thermod brown tubes has
specific gravity of S.987, shows tensile strength
of approximately 1000 pounds to the square inch,
and will stretch over 900 per cent When stretched
to four times its length tube will return to within
three per cent of is original lengh.
This tube is of extremely heavy construction.
The stock is caendered and must gauge within .003
of an inch or it is rejected. The time allowed in
