VICTORY LOAN TEST
 OF PATRIOTISM Wood

Major General Leonard Wood, who at Camp Funston trained two div!' sions of Americans for overseas serv- ice. has asked tfe American people to support the Fifth Loan, He says:
 "We have carried the war on sue cessfully so far and We must see it through. The Fifth Loan, coming as it does after the armistice, will be a more severe test than the others, of the patriotism of our people It is just as important as any loan We have made. and it should be carried through just as vigorously as the others. It is no time now to let up on our efforts. Reorganization is even more difficult and almost as im- nortant as the period of preparation. Put it over, and good luck. We must have it."

COMMUNICATION
MT. Editor:

Mr Editor:
 As I am accused. in your editorial in last Saturdays Miner of being the "instigator of the disgraceful act, In vour reference the signing of the tele- gram sent Senator Heckman regard ing the Dunn-Pennington Eight Hour bill. I trust you will be fair enough with me to permit me an explanation. Tn the first place, I was neither fnsti- gator nor constructor of the message, but if guilt there be, l am equally guilty with the others who signed it, however, I disclaim any intent of threat or disloyal act. I do not think that you can find a person of intim- ate acquaintance with me who Will accuse me of intentional disloyalty. l have wife and family of six children, have lived in Ketchikan about three years and have invested $5tU.oo in L1- berty Bonds, with my home only part ly paid for. I have used my influence to the uuIHOSI Wlln Ile iHoHpcLo oi our union, to get them to invest in Lii .berty Bonds, as the force at the bank will attest My children are taught the principles of loyalty and love of Country.
 I cannot conceive of more hate-in spring agitation as emanating from the unions than is expressed in youl editorials toward the unions. l an not an agitatcr of methods to injurt business interests. The Deep Sea Fist ermen's Union is organized to pro tect and better the condition of its members, which it certainly does.
 am awage earner and feel that the ex pressed will of more than four fifth of the voters on the question of al eight hour day for Alaska, should b, respected. I made mistake in sign jug the message in question, as word ed, but I do not feel that I have dis graced myself, nor do I think it injur ed the drive for the Victory Loan, bu We have learned what propaganda is

HUNGER WAGES CAUSE
 MIGRATION

Hunger wages and lack of employ ment during a large part of the year are assigned as among the causes or Negro migration from Mississippi, ill report on Negro Migration in 1916-17 bv R H. Leavell, of Mississippi, just issued through the Office of the Di- rector of Negro Economics, Depart ment of Labor. Wages in southwest Mississippi rarely exceeded 75 cents day, MT. Leavell reports, though range from 50 cents to $1 appeared in his investigation.
 The volume of migration from Mis- sirpi to the North can not readily he determined but an estimate by w. T. B. Williams places the figures for Mississippi at about 100000 in ap- proximately IS months,
 nuT Der of causes contributed to
 he movement, among them the disas- trcus storm of 1916 and the boil wee vii. which necessitated means of culti vation that required less labor power. Improved living conditions in the Nerth, described by those who had al ready lef. +be State. proved a great
 'octor in i .ucine others to go The increased dcath rate from pellagra in
 1915 and peilagra mortality fioures in
 general apparently have a direct re lation to wage rates. Pellagra is due
 to a monotonous low proteid diet which can be corrected by using meats vegetables, and cereals in greater abundance.
 Economic motives were present in practically every case of Negro migra

BAND LEADER COMES
TO SEE LOCAL FIELD

J. l.. Caldwell. leader OF the band at
la Grande. was in Pendleton last
night to confer with members of the
local band and demonstrate his abil-
flies as director. He returned to
la Grande today.
Mr.. Caldwell has an organization
numbering 45 pieces in the neighbor-
ing city and also has business inter-
ests there. When informed regarding
conditions here he declared that the
local proposition would hardly war
rant his leaving his present position
for the place here.
The name of A. w. Lundell. form
erly leader of the Weston band, has
been mentioned as "A possibility for
the dictatorship of the Pendleton
band. Earl Sawyer. who took the
position temporarily. has declared his
desire to return to the ranks as soon
as successor is found. Mr. Caldwell
was invited to come TO Pendleton TO
consider taking over the direction of
the band. but with no funds guaran-
teed for the support of the organiza-
ton he was not favorable to a change
at this time
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1919-07-30

the Seattle side of the case was begun
at the sound city. Astoria is being
heard there as an .intervenor against
the granting of lower rate to Port
land.
The Seattle interests pointed out in
the case that should there be any
change of rates it likely would be an
increase to the sound and the present
rate holding for Portland They also
advanced the argument to inland em-
ptre shippers that should Portland be
given favorable rate. they would
lose the advantage of connective
markets and that the buyers in the
lOregon metropolis would not favor
them with a difference in price eaui-
vaient to the difference in freight
rates. Several such "bugaboos' were
advanced in Portland by Seattle in
terests, Mr.. Cranston said.
While things appeared to be fa-
vorable in the Portland hearing, Mr..
Cranston is not decided what the out
come of the case will be. Seattle and
the railroads We're represented by
very able counsel Mr.. Cranston de-
clared. and the hearing in the sound
city this week likely will be a stiff
fight, Both sides appear optimistic.
