MAJOR GUERRE WILL
DIRECT SCOUT DRIVE.

The drive for 800 associate mem
bers of the Boy Scouts in Bogalusa
will be directed by Major L. F.
Guerre and at a meeting held at the
Y. M. c. A. last night the plans for
the drive were outlined. The funds
raised during the drive will go to the
local fund for equiping the Scouts
and it is believed the number Of as
sociate members wanted by the or
ganization will be easily secured. The
number is set at 800 and those who
have taken an active part in the
work Of the Boy Scouts believe that
they should secure 500 associate
members.
The cost of becoming an associate
member is only 81, and in view OF
the many occasions on which this or
ganization has assisted in patriotic
and civic work it will be an ideal
opportunity for the citizens of Boga-
lusa to show their appreciation OF
the services of the Boy Scouts.
Citizens of Bogalusa who have
sons are urged to have them either
active or associate members of the
organization. The training they re
| ceiye will be valuable to them and
the associations will be of the best
and the boys are certain to enjoy
every minute of their work and pas
| time
The. drive will be held during tbs
week Of June s to Ia and plans are
being made for a big Flag Day ser
vice here June IA.

HAWAII Chinese
TO BOYCOTT JAPS
Are Insulted by japanese Newspaper
Which Calls Them Low-Down
Slaves; Wedge Being Driven

Honolulu, T.. H.. July 29.--Hono-
lulu Chinese have taken the aggres-
sive against the Japanese and So
ciety known as the Chinese Crusad-
ers OF Hawaii has been organized to
carry on the battle. The Chinese
are aroused over statement said
to have been published in a Japanese
paper in Shanghai. The alleged
statement was:
The Chinese people are by nature
a race OF such lowdown slaves that
dogs or pigs would not eat them,
This kind Of race is nothing but a
mass of filth upon'the surface Of the
earth and hfndrance to the welfare
Of the world"
The Chinese Crusaders OF Hawaii
issued a proclamation to the Chi
nese OF the islands to this effect yes
terday:
you are all aware OF the fact that
according to the recent decision of
the Paris conference. all OF Ger
many's right in Kiauchau and Shan
tung province are transferred TO jap
an.
"You no doubt realize that this
decision not only gives Japan a
strangle-hold upon Shantung. but It
also places her in a strategic position
where at any time she can threaten
the sovereignty of our government
at Pekin.
I'm view OF these facts all the
patriotic Chinese in every part of the
world are raising their voices in a
mighty protest against this unjust
procedure.
''We all realize that our country is
not strong enough today to fight
Japan in military way. Therefore
/ IL is necessary to attack her with
the only weapon at hand-an econ
nomic Notwithstanding off all bus
mess relations with japanese people.
no matter where they reside.
Such a boycott. IL carried out
Systematically and permanently,
would suffice to reduce Japan to a
mediocre power"
The proclamation ends with an ap-
peal to all Chinese in the territory
to unite and crush the "tyrannical
power from the orient"

MAKES SUGGESTION
FOR RIVERSIDE PARK

Frank l.. Merrill. OF Sierra Madre,
Cal. has written the following letter
to the Courier;
Being very much impressed with
your city lnd auto camp ground af-
ter spending two or three enjoyable
days there In this scenic place, may
/ offer one little suggestion, which
I think would greatly improve the
present appearance and also aid In
keeping 1t neat and sanitary?
See that all papers and cans are
cleaned up once thoroughly. Place
several covered containers about the
grounds for garbage and cans, then
put up printed notices asking camp
ers to please leave their camps neat
and clean when leaving. This would
help to improve the present condi-
tions which are now found"

YOUNG GIRL ALMOST
LOSES LIFE IN ROGUE

Beulah Hussey, little 15-year-old
girl of this city, came near losing
her life by drowning at Riverside
park this afternoon. Only small chill
dren were present at the park and
Miss Hussey, who could swim only
a few strokes, got beyond her depth.
She went down and the children on
the bank began screaming,
Had it not been for Mr.. and Mrs.
Young, tourists who have been camp
Ing at the park, the girl would have
drowned. Mrs. Young was at the
camp and hearing the commotion,
ran to the river. At that moment
Mr.. Young, who had been to the city
on an errand, came driving into the
park with his car. He at once saw
the danger and without taking time
to remove shoes or clothing leaped
into the river and rescued the girl.
When brought to the shore Miss
Hussey was unconscious and not un-
til DR.. Loughridge, who was hurried
ly summoned. had worked over her
for several minutes did she regain
her senses.
1t was narrow escape, and suf-

Washington. Aug. 12.-"The war
department has today decided to stop
the campaign for public building
throughout the United States" 1t is

Against Amerdcanism-There Is
No Middle Ground''

Washington. Aug. 12-Nine-tenths
OF the energies Of labor leaders are
given to the job Of sitting on the

head OF the Order of Railway Con-
ductors, testified today before the
house interstate commerce commit
tee. which is seeking to solve the
problem OF how best to handle the
railroads after the wartime period OF
federal control.
Sporadic strikes throughout the
country, Garretson said, with great
earnestness. merely are straws that
show how the wind is blowing over
a sea OF industrial unrest. Rumb-
lings heard in many quarters do not
mean, he said, that laboring people
want to overthrow the government,
but indicate a demand that the gov
ernment function.
1t is largely in the power OF con-
gress. the witness declared, to alIay
that feeling.
'iBut it cannot be done by mac
tion," he shouted. Somehow the
American people are not prone al
ways to do today what may be done
tomorrow. unless an emergency
forces us to act, and then we break
all records"
Mr.. Garretson said he did not re-
gard the Plumb plan as more than
one factor in stilling the spirit of
present-day unrest, nor did he think
it would change human nature or
other things that can be eliminated"
Mr.. Garretson said he wanted to
touch on the Adamson eight-hour
act. which, he declared, was passed
by congress without one single de-
mand being made on members by
the four brotherhoods as to how they
should vote"
II was pilloried from the Atlantic
