IS GOAL
OF SCOUTS HERE
N WEEK DRIVE

Observance of National Boy Scout
week in Salem next week will be a seri-
Gus matter with the council and the
various troops. There will be no clam
orous celebrations that will mark the
advent of the week in other cities; no
bands win play; the scouts won't climb
creased poles, scale the hkights of
buildings or so on paper chases. Be-
cause every ounce OF energy the
scouts can muster win be directed to-
ward the raising of the budget for this
year.
This was decided at meeting Fri
day night of the scout council in the
Commercial club. when plans were laid
for raising the budget.
Good Time Urged.
Perhaps the only participation the
Salem scouts will have in the week
will be the inducement of every man,
woman, girl and boy to do good turn
for some one each day during the year.
Zach scout win preach this; ana each
>cout has pledged himself to observe
he dictum personally.
in Salem has been marked during the
past year. A year ago there were 70
scouts in Salem. Now they number
mere than 300. This expansion of the
movement has made It necessary to
employ a trained scout executive, en-
large the scouting program and pro-
vide budget sufficient to promote the
work.
$4,000 Needed.
1t is estimated that $4,000 is required
to carry on the scout movement in Sa-
lem and warning that unless this
amount is raised the future of the or
ganizatien in this city will be jeapord-
lied was sounded at the meeting Fri
day night Beginning Monday morn
ing business men of the city who are
interested in the movement, and have
come to recognize the Importance Of
scout training for boy, will comb the
city for funds to raise this budget.
Walter Denton. scout commissioner,
in speaking Of scout week. declared
Saturday:
The Boy Scout movement is the
greatest peace organization the world
has ever had. The scout takes an oath
to be true to God and his country. To
keep himself physically fit, morally
clean and mentally alert and to be pre-
pared to serve and act in any emcr-
gency
rs Salem warranted in contributing
this amount to the Boy Scout move-
ment in this city?
ITO those who are not familiar with
the movement, 1t might not be amiss
to say.--ask any teacher in our public
schools; any parent Of Boy Scout;
any Judge of our courts, or the police.
the warden of the state prison, or su-
perintendent Of the boys training
school. The answer would be the same
in every instance, to-wit--'it is the
most paying investment that can be
made
Scouts make better students in
school. Better sons in the home. They
are never mixed UP in neighborhood
trouble or before the juvenile courts,
and do not become mates of our PEN
al institutions.
Scouting builds for real patriotism
and is the only effective weapon
against bolshevism."

French unable TO
UNDERSTAND CHANGE
IN BR|TA|NS STAND

Paris. Feb. T.-Astonishment has
been caused in French circles by a
change of attitude on the part of the
British government regarding the ex-
tradition of Germans accused of vio-
latfons of laws of war.
While it was understood that Great
Britain was the most insistent Of all
powers represented at the peace con-
ference in demanding the trial Of for
mr. Emperor William and other prom
iEnt Germans. information has been
received that the British now are
showing tendency to leave the initia-
tive in the process of extradition to
others.
1t was said yesterday that Baron
Birkenhead, lord chancellor of Eng
land, is understood to have made II
clear the British government favored
radical modification of the list in
order that an agreement with Ger
many might be reached.
Premier Millerand declared in the
chamber of deputies last evening the
allies would not evacuate the left bank
of the Rhine until Germany had full
filled all the terms of the Versailles
treaty.

Chicago, October 5.-Complete re-organ- ization of professional baseball, as pro- posed in the Lasker plan, which calls for civilian tribunal of three persons not financially interested in the game to replace the national commission, was discussed today by a group of major league club owners and officials with Alfred Austrian, attorney for the Chi cago National and American league clubs
 While no official announcement con. corning the meeting was made, it was said legal technicaIties which would come up in the reorganization were dis cussed and that the plan with decisions made at today's meeting would be pre- sented to the club owners of the National league in New York tomorrow
 Those present today besides MT Aus trian, were John McGraw, vice-president and manager of the Giants and one of the signers of the letter sent out by four clubs proposing the Lasker plan
 Possibility of American league club owners coming to the rescue of Pres ident Comskey of the White Sox, by placing some of their players at his dis posal to replace the seven stars he sus- pended as result of the baseball scan dal, also was said to have been discussed The plan was proposed by Harry Frazee, owner of the Boston Americans, some time ago.
 All the men at the meeting have ex- pressed approval of the principle of the Lasker plan.
