REIMBURSEMENT
 OF INDUSTRIES
 EASY IN WEST

CHICAGO.-The Middle Vests economic readjustment from a war to peace basis will be relatively simple compared with that of East ern states, according to officers of the Chicago Association of Com merce, who have just completed a survey of business conditions. Re- ports from large employers indicate that virtually all returning soldiers will be given their old jobs and in Chicago little difficulty is ex- pected in absorbing the excess vol ume of labor.
 Many Eastern states manufac- turers went into the munition busi- ness on large scale in 1914, re- ceiving heavy orders from the Allies. New plants were created and old ones converted. As result when the United States entered the war, the Eastern firms were pre- pared and during the first year re- ceived S5 per cent of the govern ment war contracts, officials of the Chicago Association of Commerce said.
 They added that after the Eastern concerns were loaded to capacity, the government turned to the mid de west for assistance. Chicago manufacturers with few exceptions did not expend large sums in new plants and machinery to carry out war orders. In a majority of in stances they continued their regu- lar lines on minimum production basis and made side line of the government work by putting on an additional force of labor and work ing day and night.
 Because of this policy, most of the Chicago firms found it com paratively easy to readjust business affairs, in many cases the change being accomplished in few days with the same organization and labor forces.
 Large numbers of women who were pressed into service are grad ually being dismissed to make room for the soldiers as they return.

ALLAN SAYS DOCS
 ARE VERY SCARCE

SEATTLE-Notu until more money and fast dogs are imported from Siberia will dog racing over Alaska's winter trails be back in it's old prominent place, according to A. A. ("Scotty'O Allan, of Nome, Alaska, three times winner of the Seward Peninsula All Alaska Sweepstakes Race Allan, who is member of the Alaska legislature, is spending the winter here.
 "Most of Alaska's fast dogs went to the war;" Allan said recently. "We called out the best and sent them overseas for the French gov ernment. Some of these doogs have done notable work. To take their places in the races we could import 1 dogs from Siberia. It is said there are many fast racing dogs in the territory laying across the Boring
 Sea from Alaska.
 i At present there are not enough people left at Nome to subscribe a i big purse. If things settle down
 we can work up big trade with our
 neighbors, the Siberians, and thus
 bring enough people and money to
 Nome to make it possible to stage
 the old races again."

MONEY IS SENT FROM CHILL ID
 INJURED TANKS

PARIS.-Fifty-t three dollars, col lected by a small group of engin- eers employed by a copper company at Valparaiso, Chile, for wounded American boys, came all the way to headquarters of the Y. M C. A. in Paris the other day, and this is what happened to it. E c. Carter, chief of the Y. M. C. A. overseas activities, gave the money to his secretary, telling her to spend every cent of 1t on boys in certain hos pital who needed some extra com forts.
 The secretary and two other girls, all in the uniform of the Y. M. c. A. collected a lot Of the latest news papers and magazines from home bought up cigarettes, chew .ug gum chocolate, jam and basket full of fresh white grapes, and then, laden way beyond the limit of their an cient hack, drove to the big base hospital on the world-famous race track at Auteuil, just outside Paris, once the home of sport and now the home of a thousand or more wound ed American soldiers.
 Cigarettes were given to every man in four wards, also a box of matches Then the three girls went into the gas ward where boys are not allowed tobacco in any form until the gas is entirely out of their systems. Each of these boys was given chewing gum, and some of them were so glad to get it that they actually cried. Others were not so far down with the ravages of the attack and sang out glad "Hurrays", but there wasn't a man in that ward whose day was not made easier by that package of gum
 The grapes were taken into the medical ward, where fever patients with parched throats were relieved by the cooling fruits. The jam was given to various nurses, for there was none too much of it and not nearly enough for all the boys. The nurses take these little extras and hide them under lock and key in their medicine chests. And now and then it is given to bed-ridden patients whose appetites, as we'll as their tired bodies, need nursing.

COLORADO WOMEN
 FOUGHT THE FLU

DENVER.-The Women's Motor Corps of the Red Cross did heroic work in fighting the epidemic of Spanish influenza in Denver, many members often giving assistance to victims of the malady up to the moment they were stricken them selves.
 One of the self-imposed duties of the corps was the distribution of gallons of soup made by the National League for Women's Service. In many instances members of the corps have gone into sick rooms to serve patients. Cases of dire need have been discovered by them. In instances where they found entire families i'll and often without suffi- cient bedding they have collected these articles from their own homes and from friends.
 Members of the corps also used their cars in carrying patients to hospitals.

CTS, it is not possible now to believe that it is the intention of the in teror department to turn the work of railroad building over to private contractors, as suggested in dis patches received this week from Seattle. Nevertheless we believe the Commercial club has followed a wise course in giving it's endorse ment to the Alaskan Engineering commission and to the work already accomplished The Seattle report encourages the belief that agitators are at work, in an effort to em- barrass the Commission and to dis credit the government enterprise, and it is as well that administration officials be made aware of the real attitude of those most concerned with the future of Alaska before real harm has been done by agita- tors.
 Every resident of the Interior country has been benefited, in one way or another, by the helpful atti- tude of the Alaskan Engineering l,tfxy ourselves and our several districts to strive to the very utmost to pre- vent a curtailment of government activities at this time. The Commis- sion has done all of the dead work and experimenting necessary to an enterprise of magnitude in a new country, and it would not be fair to the men who have directed the work, or to Alaskans who have be- come part of the working organi- zation, to turn the job over now to Outsiders, who have no interest in Alaska beyond the possible profits of large contract. Such a radical change of policy would be a dis honorable act on the part of the administration, and we believe we can depend upon Secretary Lane to do the square thing.

PLAY SQUARE WITH ALASKA

President Wilson and various members of his cabinet have pledged their support to the pioneers of Alaska in their efforts to develop the country. It is recognized al Washington that our territory has a big future before it and that one of the principal needs is improved transportation facilities. The ad- ministration has even d more inti- mate knowledge of Northern con- dtions. It recognizes that the con struction of the railroad under the direction of the Alaskan Engineer ing commission, giving employment to sourdoughs and fostering local industries as the work progresses, is helping Northerners to tide over period of such unusual depression that comparatively few of the old tiiIeiH "ouiu HdNc tcHdiHeu III Alaska under less favorable con ditions of construction
 It was intended, when the con that the project should give imme- diate relief to those districts in dire need of assistance. Were this not true, no attempt would have been made to lay rails in the Interior in advance of the completion of the coast end of the road; money would not have been expended to develop coal mines along the right of way, and assistance rendered to other en- terprises promising future tonnage. And Alaskans would not have been encouraged to acquire property in government towns and to invest large sums in business enterprises
 All of these helps, which re- ceived the favorable consideration of the administration at the time railroad constructor was commenced are still necessary to the develop ment of Alaska A less considerate policy would result in forcing people to leave the territory instead of at tracing newcomers to the North land. It would bring development to full stop and the territory would receive setback from which it could not possibly recover until long after the completion of th,. railroad.
 Knowing that the administration realizes all these things and all along has shown disposition to make sledding easier for Northern

future FOR
WILLAMETTE VALLEY

VIM. $. Walton, cashier OF the Ladd
& Bush bank, and Robert C. Paulus,
manager of the Salem Fruit Union and
plesident of the Salem Commercial
club, lined up as most enthusiastic
boosters for Salem and this part OF the
Willamette valley at the meeting held
last evening at the Marion hotel to
hear one of the big men Of the Sat
urday Evening Post and other pubh-
cations of the Curtis Publishing Co. of
Philadelphia.
Referring to the loganberry situation
as it is at present and barking back
about five years ago, Mr. Walton said
that the loganberry business was the
balance wheel of the business situa-
tion in Salem. While five years ago the
conditions in Salem and vicinity were
most unsatisfactory, now with the fu-
ture of the loganberry assured, he
could see nothing but prosperity for
not only loganberry growers, but for
the city Of Salem as well.
Sees Great Future
Robert C. Paulus sees a great future
for the valley and with the acreage
gradually increasing from year to year
he could see no reason why the valley
should not ultimately have a popula-
ton of 100000. "I firmly believe this
time will eome,'' said Mr.. Paulus,
"and we have but to refer to the rap
id growth of the berry and fruit in
terests in the valley the past few
years.
"We now have 10000 acres of fruit
in the valley and 10000 acres of Eng
lish walnuts coming on. Within the
next four or five years we will have
10000 acres of fruits. Already we have
10000 acres of apples that will soon
come into bearing and 5000 acres o.
berries that will be added to the ber
ry harvest shortly declared Mr..
Paulus.
He called attention to the fact that
the Pheasant Northwest Fruit Pro-
ducts Co. could alone contract for the
output of 5000 acres of berries and at
good prices.
. Need Big Commercial Club
Incidentally he called attention TO
the fact that Eugene had a larger mem
Ibership in its Commercial club than
Salem and that something should be
done to increase the local membership.
He was strongly in favor Of securing
memberships from farmers and told Of
an anonymous letter he had received
suggesting that the Commercial club
