World War Veter-
ans to Organize

The organization of all the men
In the land and naval forces OF the
United States In the great world war
is being formed. Preliminary steps
were taken last week when Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt sent a telegram
to Lieubenant-Colo George H. Kel-
ly making suggestions for action in
Oregon.
This organization, as yet nameless,
is designed to be the real, compre-
hensive organization for the men
who have seen service against Ger
many and to shut out alleged fly-by-
night organizations which are be-
ginning to spring up. The organiza-
ton will proceed in a temporary
manner pending the return Of the
men overseas, so that when they are
home they will have voice in 1t.
Colonel Roosevelt, whose address
is 19 West Forty-fourth street, New
York City, in a series Of kilograms to
Colonel Kelly indicated general
outline for fashioning state branch
of the proposed war veterans asso-
citation. He asked that immediate
publicity be given TO the program
and that the name and address Of a
temporary secretary be published, so
that all the veterans can get in touch
with the pending organization.
1t is suggested that a call be is
sued for state convention to select
delegates to attend a national con-
vention at st. Louis. No date has
been set for the state or national
meetings, but these will be announc-
ed later.
Representation in the national
convention will be based on twice
the congressional representation of
state. This means that with Ore
gon having two senator's and three
representatives the Oregon branch
will be entitled to send to st. Louis
ten delegates.
AS soon as dates for the state and
national conventions are established,
the call for the state convention will
be issued. 1t is the desire of Col,
Kelly to see large delegations from
all parts of the state at the state con-
vention, in order to make the organi-
zation as representative as possible

War Tank Went
Over Embankment

When the Whippet war tank, which
was exhibited here last Thursday in
the interests of the Victory Loan,
started out on its northward journey
over the highway to Medford and
arrived at the point where the pave
ment goes around the Billings hill,
the drivers of the tank started over
the old dirt road instead of follow
ing the new extension under the rail
road track. On arriving at the top
of the hill, the tank men found the
road closed, so instead of turning
around the machine simply dropped
over the bank, according to witness
es who followed it out that far, at
the highest place on to the pavement
below. The descent was made as
easily as if the tank were running on
a level. altho the bank was torn up
somewhat where the machine went
down.

Receive Attention

In 1859 the trees which will be
planted this week aud in the near
future under the direction of Geo.
Cecil, district forester, will he ready
for the market. according to esti-
mate of the forest service.
Planting was started in four Ore
gon forests and one national forest
this week Directions have been Civ
en- to plant with fir and pine 2030
acres of national forest which have
been burned off a number of times
aud which would produce no new
trees If left to nature. Planting Is
to take place on 100 acres neal
Rustlers creek on the Crater nation
al forest, on 425 acres near Oakridge,
southwest of Eugene, on the Cascade
national forest, on 500 acres at Mt.
Hebo, south of Tillamook in the
Siuslaw national forest, and on 525
acres on the old Solduc burn on the
Olympic national forest,
Trees two years old are used for

sery in the Columbia national forest
and are of Douglas fir except those to
