NEW BUILDINGS
BEING PLANNED
Rudolph Weaver viii Design Dormis
tory and Julius Zittel Dairy
Building for State College

Preparations are being made to
start work on the new buildings at
the State College as soon as possible.
Rudolph Weaver, the college archi-
tect, is already well started on the
plans for the new girls dormitory,
He will also prepare the plans and
specifications for the finishing of the
interior of Wilson Hall
The new dairy building will be
designed by Julius Zittel of Spokane,
who has done a great deal of work
for the state in planning public build
ings. Both buildings will conform in
general style to Wilson Hall and the
Mechanic Arts building, which have
been adopted as the type of archi-
lecture for all future buildings.
Professor Weaver will probably
superintend the construction of both
the buildings as well as the improve
ments in Wilson Hall. According to
present plans the girls dormitory
will face on Campus avenue, though
the exact site of the building has not
yet been determined.

FARM LABOR SCARCE

Farm labor appears to be very
scarce in the vicinity OF Pullman. II.
r. Quinn, V. 0. Slusser. Charles Vol
mer, Gordon Klemgard c. 4. Hood
and Oscar Kincad all need from one
to three men and many others also
need help. There are very few men
looking for work in Pullman As an
inducement farmers have raised the
wages from $3.50 and board to $500.
This scarcity is unaccountable, for
last spring, with many OF the men
gone, farmers had no trouble IN OBJ
tanning help.

OPEN MEETING OF
HISTORICAL CLUB
q. f. Voorhees, of Colfax Gives
Thoughtful and Illuminating
Discussion of the League of
cations

About rs members and invited
guests attended the annual open
meeting of the Historical club,
which was held last Saturday even
ing at VanDoren Hall. In the receiv-
ing line were Mrs. A. A. Rounds,
president of the club; Mrs. r. p.
Cone, president-elect; C. F.. Voor-
bees, the speaker of the evening,
Miss Angnes Craig and Mrs. G. c.
Todd.
The program was opened with a
group Of vocal solos by Sidney Ali
son, with Miss Miriam Zimmerman at
the piano. The enthusiastic applause
proved that Mr.. Allisons sweet tones
we're appreciated by his auditors.
Miss Melcena LaFollette gave a
very pleasing humorous reading.
C. F.. Voorhees, was next intro
duced and delivered very thought
full and illuminating address on the
proposed league of nations to enforce
peace. He analysed the tentative
covenant, section by section. and
pointed out the clauses which need
clarifying and strengthening. He
showed that the covenant does not
make possible the creation of a
er-government, as has been
claimed by some of the critics of the
plan, but pointed out the Importance
of guaranteeing the protection of the
Monroe doctrine and of a specific
statement as to whether or not ma
tons Joining the league can with
draw. He argued that the omission
of such a clause from the constitu-
ton of the United States was the
real cause of the Civil war.
The speaker was given close atten-.
ton and highly complimented for the
thoroughness and fairness of his dis
cussion
After the program light refresh
ments were served and social hour
completed one of the most interest
ing and enjoyable open meetings ever
given by the Historical club.

that you have made up your mind
to do so and hope you will reconsider
this decision. AS no other living
man can have the intimate personal
insight to and knowledge of the con-
aitions of the war torn and hungry
world that you have gained in your
! work for the relief of Belgium and
It's stricken people, your work as
Food Administrator of the United
States and now of the world.
with this intimate knowledge
and insight gained through this la
| Dor so well done, you can do more
to alleviate the sufferings of the peo-
pies of the world, and do more to
crush bolshevism and anarchy than
it would be possible for anyone else
to do.
Therefore in the cause of human
ity and in the interests of restoring
order and good government to the
world and its peoples, we would re-
specially ask that you reconsider
this decision, and that you give your
assent to the President TO still act.
"A. A. ELMORE,
President of the Joint Organiza-
ton of the Farmers Union and State
Grange of the States of Washington,
Oregon and Idaho"
That these messages had weight is
proved by the promptness with which
the following replies were cabled:
''Paris.--I am indeed obliged for
your kind telegram of recent date.
Hoover will continue to head the ad-
ministration of our food problems,
both here and in the United States,

OLDS "ONE-LUNGER"
HAS TOO MUCH SPEED
Il. W. Carter Must Answer to Charge
of Driving Pioneer Automobile
Without Il License and
Speeding

Charged with operating a pioneer
without license and with speeding
the machine through the streets of
the peaceful cry of Pullman, X. w,
Carter, manager of the Whitman I'M
plement company and respected citi
zen, will appear in police court Sat
urday afternoon at 300 O'Clock to
argue the case before William Swain,
police judge. The arrest Of the es-
teemed citizen has caused furore
of excitement in the usually placid
atmosphere of the moral college city
and the court room in the city hall
will be crowded to the doors to hear
the evidence in the case tomorrow
afternoon. Mr.. Carter has retained
NJ. S. lamar, local legal light, to de-
fend him, and will demand a jury
trial. 1t is entirely possible that the
defendant may demand change of
defendant before the time set for
the trial, his contention being that
Judge Swain, the owner and driver
of Ford, may be prejudiced against
the Oldsmobile and might let his
prejudices creep into the trial of the
case and his final findings.
Bail has been fixed at $50 and Mr..
Carter is enjoying his liberty pending
the trial, through the liberality of ].
S. Klemgard and John l.. Metsker,
prosperous farmers, who dug into
their jeans and extracted $25 each
that the implement dealer and his
posterity might escape the ignomy
connected with a sojourn in the city
bastile.
The trial bids fair to develop a
humorous vein, inasmuch as Mr.. Car
ter states that he will base his de-
Tense on the contention that the pio-
neer Odds, with its hard rubber tires,
lever steering apparatus and other
primitive features long ago discarded
in the interests of modernism and eff
ficiency, can not legally be classed
as an automobile. To the charge OF
driving at an excessive rate of speed
Mr.. Carter will answer that the Odds
in question is capable Of not to ex-
coed ~ miles hour, and will invite
Judge Swain to prove the contention
with an actual test, the ex-mayor t2
drive the machine at rate exceed
ing ~ miles or declare the charge
groundless.
The pioneer Olds has been driven
through the streets of the city on
several occasions to show the eVolu-
tion of the automobile industry dur
ing the 81 years since the law break
ing "one-lunger" was turned out. It's
pioneer characteristics have attract |
ed wide attention as the machine
paraded, side by side with the ele-
CANT 1919 models of Oldsmobiles,
and unusual interest has been Gre
ated through the arrest of the driver |

Hoover Will Continue to Head Adj
ministration of Food Problems
Until the Next Harvest

1t was announced in the press
about the middle of March that Her
bert Hoover had expressed an inten-
ton OF resigning his position as U. S.
/ Food Administrator and retiring to
private life, After reading this news
d. F. Staley of this city wrote a let
ter TO r. G. McCroskey of Garfield,
| suggesting that the organized farm
ers should make an effort to have
Mr. Hoover retain his present posi-
/ ton, because his intimate knowledge
of the food problems of the world
/ specially qualities him to find pres
/ ent and future markets for the farm
T products Of the United States.
Mr.. McCroskey was so impressed
with the force of Mr.. Staleys sug-
| gestion that he at once took the mat
/ ter up with A. A. Elmore, state pres-
4 dent Of the Farmers Union, who is
now at Washington, D. C. Mr.. El-
more authorized the sending of the
/ following cablegrams to President
Wilson and Mr.. Hoover on behalf of
/ the joint organization of the Farm
ers Union and Grange of Washing
ton, Idaho and Oregon, which han
died the successful fight to secure
higher prices for the grain of the Pa
cific Northwest last year.
Woodrow Wilson, President OF
the United States, Paris, France: -
We see by the Associated Press re-
/ ports that Herbert c. Hoover, Unit
ed States Food Administrator, has
announced his intention to resign his
post
/ I'VE would respectfully urge that,
| if it is possible to be done Mr..
Hoover be induced to reconsider this
for the following reasons:
First, that no other living man
/ has at his instant command the facts
! and conditions of the worlds food
/ supply as has Mr.. Hoover.
Second, he can market and dis
tribute our coming crop without any
loss in dollars and cents to the bill
lion-dollar revolving fund appropri-
ated to handle this crop.
Third, in doing this he will estab-
| lish and open up to the citizens of
our country markets that will be
worth more billions to us in future
years.
! Fourth, he has the respect and
confidence of the producers and bust
ness men of our country as no other
man could have without the knowl-
edge and training he has gained
| through his work during the past
! four years.
Fifth, he has a personal ac-
quaintance with the Food Admins
traitors of the other peoples of the
world and knows their individual
conditions and problems and there
fore would be in closer touch with
them than would be possible for
new man without this knowledge.
Sixth, he has most intimate
| knowledge and insight into the
I thoughts and minds of the peoples
of the war torn and starving colln-
tries of the world, through his most
valuable work of the past four years
and therefore his retention as Food
Administrator would do much to
combat bolshevism and anarchy and
bring these peoples to a sober and
sane state of mind and advance the
cause of democracy and good gov
eminent throughout the world.

hope to assist materially in the sup
preston of Bolshevism, l. w. Wism
and other internal unrest. A group
of circulation men connected with the
new publication are in Pullman this
week stirring up interest and are en-
countering little difficulty in securing
subscriptions from the ranks of the
returned soldiers and sailors and the
general public. All of these men are
discharged service men, one of them,
F. l.. Bowers, having been a membe
of the second training detachment
at the State College. Three members
of the circulation army" arrived
Wednesday, the group being in
creased to eight last night
The Pacific Soldier and Sailor is
the only journal on the Pacific Coast
published solely by returned service
men, and the new publication is re-
ceiving warm reception on every
hand having been most enthusi-
astically endorsed by the leading men
OF the communities already reached.
Jerold Owen, discharged first lieu
tenant and formerly editor of the
Western Farmer, is at the editorial
helm of the new journal, and is sup
ported by a staff of efficient, expert
enced writer's.
The publication is founded on pa
triotism and is dedicated to the in
terests and benefits of returned SOL
diers and sailors for two purposes,
to supply the need of patriotic pub
LEGATION and to establish medium
through which can be reached the
comrades who are returning from
army and navy and American citizens
in business and industrial lines and
thus counteract the pernicious Boil
sheviki and l.. w. w. propaganda.
The first issue of the journal,
dated April 5, is just off the press,
and teens with timely articles of
vital interest. A leading story on
"BolsheYism" includes a frank dis
cussion of the soviet system of gov
eminent. Under the head of Cana
da's Reception" is related Canada's
patriotic treatment of her returned
service men, while story on Land
for Fighters" deals with the pro-
posed methods of securing state or
federal lands for returned soldiers
and sailors. The laws enacted by the
recent legislative bodies of Washing
ton and Oregon are digested, and the
movement to form a great league OF
the veterans of all wars is discussed.
The editorials are timely and cover
a wide range of thought, while fea-
ture stories of service life and
goodIy touch of humor add much to
the publication.
The publication has been endorsed
by prominent Pullman citizens and
the solicitors should leave Pullman
with many names on their subscrip-
tion books.
