A|RPLANE FLIGHT
TO VIRGIN ISLANDS
MARINE CORPS AIRPLANES
FORCED TO LAND SHORT OF
FIRST STOPPING PLACE.

Richmond, Va.-(By A. P.)-Twc
marine corps airplanes which landed
here yesterday from Washington en-
route to the Virgin Islands, took the
air again at $3.50 a. m. today, bound
for Fayetteville, North Carolina,
where they were to have spent last
night.
Thought Planes Were Lost
Washington, Tuesday Might BY
A. P.)-The four marine corps avia-
here in two planes early this after
noon on the first leg of their flight
to the Virgin Islands had not been
heard from tonight. They had in
tended to make their first stop at
Fayetteville, N. c., $40 miles distant,
but did not put in an appearance
either there or at Langley field, Vir-
ginia.
The disappearance of the av; S
was complete, notwithstanding inaui-
ries. The only fact which served to
relieve the anxiety of officials was
the improbability that disaster could
have overtaken both simultane. sly.
The theory was advanced that per-
haps one had been forced down in an
isolated spot and the other had de-
scended to assist in repair work.

PLAN TO DEVELOP
TRADE WITH CHILE
TRADE COMMISSIONER FROM
SOUTH AMERICAN REPUBLI-
CAN VISITS PACIFIC COAST.

LOS ANGELES, Cal-(By A. P. }
Development of closer industrial and
commercial relations between Chile
and the Pacific coast of the United
States, with their similar geographic
al and trade problems is the reason
for the visit to California of Richard
Barrows special commissioner for
Chile to the United States, he said
| here.
Commissioner Barrows, who came
to the United States to solidify COM
mercial relations between the two
countries, pointed out that the com
mercial and industrial problems of
Chile are practically identical with
those of California, Oregon and
Washington.
Chile bars the same relation with
states do to the United States" he
said. I'VE face the same ocean; we
have behind us similar high noun
tain ranges. Our trade problems are
practically the same as those of your
Pacific coast, and / am here to study
the methods you are using to develop
your own industries and to expand
your foreign trade for the benefit
which this study will be to my gov
eminent.
Eve have the same problem of ship
ping that affects you, and we hope,
in time, to see more of our own pro-
ducts afloat under our own flag We
have the same potentiality in voter
power from the Andes that you Lave
from the high Sierras and we hope,
just as you do, to develop this water
power to furnish the motive power to
turn the wheels of our industries.
just as you are facing this problem,
we realize that on the development of
power depends our industrial future.
Behind us lie the resources Of the
South American continent just AS be-
hind you lie the resources of the Uni
ted States, and my mission here is to
arrange for the purchase by Chilean
firms of American exports, and also
that Chilean nitrates and other pro-
ducts may be sold within the United
States to furnish the values by which
we must expect to pay for American
imports in Chile.

vice. political Washington is be-
ginning to be stirred by the propa-
ganda being carried on in this country
for the purpose as expressed by Frank
H. Simonds a few days ago, ito en-
broil us with our recent associates in
the World War" That this propa-
ganda should be so open and daring
at time when the United States is
still techn -caf.y at v ar with Germany
is having the effect of causing notice
to be taken Of this activity to an extent
which promises to effecIually choke
the movement. This development IT
this time is recalling the days lrior
to the entry oe the United Statcs into
the war.
Particularly is This effort aimed at
the making of trouble between this
nation and Great Britain. The Ger
man government has in the past
shown it's determination and re-
sourcefulness in this respect, but, as
it has been pointed out like others
of the same sort, it probably carries
it's own cure. AS is usually the case
it is being overdone."
Former United States Senator AL
bert J. Beveridge, speaking at a
Washington's birthday celebration in
New York recently, said Washing
tons farewell address advising his
against foreign alliances
might have been written in 1921"
Senator Beveridge, continuing, said
America has always been "the most
propaganda ridden country in the
world"
Among the organizations which are
taking firm stand against all pro-
paganda which would seek to disturb
amicable relations between the Uni
ted States and its European allies is
the American Legion.

After all, people never expected our
state universities to take care OF an
actual majority of our young people
who at any time might be of college
age. The numbers would be unthink-
able. The opportunity is for all, but 1T
will be seized and improved upon only
by those who can and will, who are
the potential leaders of tho next gen.
GRAFTON. Experts just now are telling
us that these will never be more than
20 per cent of the mass-that the rest
simply will not assimilate college
education. Even il exposed TO it they
will prove perfectly immune. But If
a bachelor should be taxed to put
other peoples children through the
grades, or that rarer being-a man
without a car-taxed for the upkeep of
roads he will never travel, why should
not the whole state be taxed to rain

EXPECT MANY PEOPLE
AT SPORTSMEN'S FAIR

Spokane, Wash.-Entries for the
second annual Sportsmen's and Tour
lists Fair at Spokane April 1915
close this week. Despite the fact that
twice as much space is available this
year as in 1920 it seems likely that
the congestion will be equally as
great incident to increased entries
and more comprehensive displays.
The fair gives communities desiring
tourist business a splendid opportu-
nifty to show their attractions and the
fact that no charges are made to ex-
hibitors or the public has. attracted
favorable comment. 1t
is expected that $4,000 persons will
attend the fair and that one result
will be vast increase in knowledge

tricate and vexing problems, so far
as the United States is concerned,
is a problem not alone for some
select and remote council of diplo-
matte experts, but for every mothers
son of us, and daughter too, to have
an intelligent opinion on and to neIp
solve with our ballots. Our local
problems of government within the
country are as numerous and almost
as complicated. Hence, the RESPONSE
bility on every citizen Of sound mind
to think long and seriously about
such things and to help his fellow
men think straight is an almost ap-
palling burden.
DR.. Kerr Spoke Briefly.
President Kerr Of Oregon Agricul-
tural College, long friend Of DR.. Up
ham, recalled, in his address, this
friendship from the time DR.. Upham
was at Harvard until he came to the
Utah Agricultural College as head of
the English department when DR..
Kerr was president of that institu-
ton. In his, president Upham's)
position here, I am sure he will acquit
himself to his and the university's
credit" he said. mo other position
in the state holds place more I'm
portant than that to which Dr. Up-
ham has been called During my as
ISOLATION with your president I have
entrusted him with many RESPONSE
bilities and he has always handled
these with the greatest ability"
Prof. John w. Dickinson, the uni
versity chorus and the university or
chestra furnished musical numbers at
intervals during the program Pre-
ceeding the inauguration Dr. Upham
and Col Edward r. Chrisman re-
viewed the ex-service men and the
cadet battalion.
The reception last night, held at
hall, was attended by
more than a thousand people, The

,eption, was also we'll attended.

conceived of a system admirably
adapted to prepare such leaders as the
growing state should need We were
to begin with single college of let
ters and science, and then Ito quote
the act): AS soon as the income of
the university will allow, in such or
der as the wants of the public shall
seem to require, the said courses in
the sciences and their application to
the practical arts shall be expanded
into distinct colleges of the uni
versity." There at the very beginning
stood the idea of meeting public
need; and the subsequent history Of
the university shows an enlargement
OF scope proceeding step by step ex-
actly as the public became aware OF
its own educational wants and the in
stitution found itself financially able
to provide for them.
In this way have come into exist

service, the college Of engineering,
the college of law, the school of
mines, the school of forestry, and the
school of education. Developing the
vast agricultural resources of the
state, bringing water to her arid
lands and Harvesting her mountain
rivers, outstanding the wealth OF
timber on her mountain sides and the
wealth of minerals beneath, training
teachers and administrators to get
the results from her greatest re-
sources of au-the minds and hearts
of her children-are the services the

tons exist throughout the valley and
it is estimated that the wool clip will
