AMERICAN SAILORS NEEDED
TO MAN GERMAN SHIPS

PARIS. naval author
tiles here are doing everything possi-
BILE to avoid adding to the number OF
unemployed in the United States by
retaining in the service every able
bodied sailor who can be induced to
remain. Instructions have been given
to discharge no man who does not
desire to leave and who has no present
prospect of employment.
Apprehension is expressed in naval
circles that there will be a real short
age of sailors for the navy on this
side of the Atlantic, owing to the ex-
pectation that a large number will be
required to man the German mer-
chant ships which the United States
is to take over under the terms of the
armistice. This is the explanation
given for the sudden change in orders
to number of men who were about
to start for the United States, but are
being held in French ports.

CHARGE AMERICAN
SOLDIERS ARE BAD
WAR DEPARTMENT TO INVESTI-
GATE SERIOUS CHARGES MADE
BY PARIS PAPERS

PARIS.-Thirty-f murders, 22C
day and night assaults and nearly SOC
serious fights due to American sol
diers, occurred in the department oi
the Seine during the month of De-
cember, says the Matin today. The re-
enforcement of the police conting-
ent had been demanded by Brig. Gen.
VIM. w. Harts, the newspaper asserts
and with the new organization ef-
fected police operations have been
carried out on wholesale scale, es-
pecially in the Menmarte section, re-
sulting in the arrest of many Ameri-
can deserters.
Another of the Paris newspapers,
the Intransigeant, welcomes the rein
forcement of the American police SER
vice in these days, when, it says, at
tackled by armed men were becoming
over-common and jewelry stores were
being robbed in full daylight.
For it must be said," says the In
transigeant "and our friends of the
United States deplore the fact like
ourselves, that the audacity of some
of their bad lots has grown marvel
ously since the armistice"
Incredible, Washington Says.
WASHINGTON-O informa-
tion will be sought by the war depart
ment concerning reports in Paris
that American soldiers
have been involved in a crime wave.
Secretary Baker said yesterday that
the situation pictured in the papers
seemed incredible" and that official
reports from France made no mention
Of the matter.
1t was said at the war department.
that disturbances of minor charac-
ter were to be expected where many
men, freed for the moment from close
restraint were involved, but
he figures given by the French pa
)ers indicated a most serious situa-
ion.

TWO NEW CASES OF
INFLUENZA HERE
HEALTH OFFICER REPORTS TWO
MILD CASES DEVELOPED IN
TOWN YESTERDAY

We boasted too soon of Moscow be-
ing free from influenza, for two new
cases developed yesterday and were
reported to DR.. Adair, city health Of
flcer this morning. One case is at
21O S. Asbury street and the other
is at 518 E. Seventh street. Both
are very mild and are causing no un-
easiness.
DR.. Adair says that these cases re-
suited from exposure of the patients
to persons who had come from out
side points, bringing the disease with
them and that the gravest danger OF
a renewal of the epidemic here is
from it being brought here from other
points. Moscow is (or was) free from
the disease, but it is bad in other
places. Colfax, Lewiston, Pullman
and other nearby towns have the di-
sease in bad form while reports from
Boise are that conditions there are
very bad DR.. Adair says that man
who recently returned from Boise
says that there were 81 bodies in one
undertaking parlor there, awaiting
burial and that there were 480 cases
in Boise i. DR.. Adair said:
'Ihe situation over the United
States as per public health service re-
port, published weekly, Vol "a, Jan.
18th shows an increase in the follow
ing states: Oregon for Portland, 993
cases, a. deaths; California, $500 |
total to date, 240,800; Alabama, 1912;
Connecticut, 1,619; Illinois, 1904;

also report an increase but no figures
given: Minnesota, Arkansas, Indiana,
New York, N. Carolina and Ohio.

SECRETARY LANE is
CONFIDENT OF FUTURE

Says the committee ON statistics and
standards of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States. There
are all sorts of forecasts as to the ma
ture and volume of business during
the next six months. They vary from
dull winter and good spring and
summer to no business at all until
good harvest natures, or to only a
fair business until the reconstruction
process is completed. But this seems
to be the most popular prophecy,
namely, a period of intermediate
length working itself out by common
sense and forethought to a far better
era and greater prosperity than ever
has been our portion in the past"
Says Franklin K. Lane, secretary
of the interior "The economic and
industrial outlook of the United States
seems to me to be bright. l can give
no reason for this other than most
superficial one. Europe has been
pretty well smashed up. Restoration
is it's job America has the raw ma
terials. This should make things live
ly at mines and mills. Moreover my
recollection of history is that vic
torious nation always has period of
good times after war; England in
time and after Napoleon;
Germany after the war of 1870 are in
stances"

PROBLEM OF WAGES
IS A VEx|NG ONE
HIGH WAGES ADDS TO COST OF
LIVINGEBOTH EXPECTED TO
TAKE A TUMBLE

The immediate problem before the
United States is whether private in
dustry can keep up the high wages
paid during the war.
Manufacturers have raised the
question whether this country will be
able to maintain it's share of world
trade on an eight-hour work day basis
and at the present abnormally high
scale Of wages.
President Gompers struck back at
call the Bourbons in the United
States" who try to rob labor of the
advantages it has gained during the
war
But the New York Sun points out
that a three-dollar-a-day wage that
will support man and his family in
comfort is better than the ten-dOllar-
a-day wage that leaves him without
job.
The American people believe in high
wages and a high standard of living.
But it seems that very high wages,
prevailing, under stress Of war, can
not be duplicated in private industry
in peace times.
The advance in wages has been pre-
dicted on high cost Of living, and that
higher wages have resulted in higher
living costs.
Take, for example, coal and milk.
Coal operators advanced miners
wages to meet higher living costs,
and this was reflected in higher
price for coal. Milk is bringing a
record price.
In explaining the latest advance of
a cent per quart, Mr. Hoover, the
food administrator, said: "The labor

siderable money to make our quota
from the entire district although part
of the counties have made up their
quotas. We have more than 100000
reported of the $108,220 needed.
"This work of relief is vital. Ger
many cannot be absolved from the
responsibility for massacres and de-
portations from which these people
have suffered. 1t was a part of her
plan for world dominion by force and
it is up to us to keep alive the rem
nant who have survived, by helping
to rehabilitate their desolated coun-
try"

issued the following statement from
former President William Howard
Taft: "You can be sure that the
