Ail Atlantic Port in France, June
26, (Delayed by Censor).—The first
contingent of American troops land-
ing today was Joyfully greeted by all
the people of the district. The trans-
ports whose impending arrival had
not been publicly announced, came
streaming into the port in a long line.
News of the arrival spread rapidly
and thousands of persons were oil
band to greet them. A wild welcome
was shrieked from the vessels in the
port and cheers for the United States
seemed to come from every throat in
the crowd, which was quickly dom-
inated with the vari-colored uniforms
of the French soldiers and sailors.
Meanwhile, the bands on the ves-
sels were playing The Star Spangled
Manner and the Marsellaise as the
American colors were lioisted.
Delegations of American army of-
ficers from Paris and naval men from
■dsewhere, with French military men
of ihgli rank were present to greet
the army.
The arrival was after an exciting
passage though the submarine zone.
Frequent warnings were received and
the passage through tlio war zone
was made at high speed. Every pre-
caution was taken. Weather condi-
tions during the voyage were ideal
and the men arrived in excellent
health. The days were warm and
the nights cool and comfortable; and
the sea was unusually smooth. There
was little sea sickness.
The various units of the expedition-
ary forces having arrived safely, the
censor has released dispatches filed
earlier describing the voyage. No
previous message had been allowed
except one last week announcing the
safe arrival of the second contin-
gent.
Landing Successful.
By Associated Press.
Paris, June 30.-"The landing of
the American troops has been a com-
plete success," said Gen. Pershing
upon his return today from a hurried
trip to the port of debarkation. On
the whole transfer of a great army,
the largest undertaking that we have
ever attempted,—there has not been
a single fatality among men or
iinals, and there was practically no
sickness,—only a few lnsigniflcan
cases of mumps."

Canadian Advance at a Sur

Men.
(By Canadian Press Limited).
Canadian Headquarters in France,
June 30.—There are daily increasing
signs that the German man power is
no longer what it was. The number
of enemy troops in the field appears
little less than before the opening of
spring operations, but the spirit of the
men is no longer that of an assured
victor.
A prisoner taken yesterday spoke
of the process of disillusionment the
German people are now going through.
If the war does not end soon, he said,
there will be a revolution in Germany.
This changed spirit is not due to un-
derfeeding. Most of the German pris-
oners are well nourished. A big
guardsman, at least six feet tall, when
cornered fought like a wild cat till he
was badly wounded, and was so heavy
that four bearers could make no head-
way carrying him over the wet and
slippery chalk to a dressing camp.
Success unexpectedly great and
complete at a cost in casualties far
less than in some recent unimportant
engagements, has attended the drive
of the Canadians along the Valley
of Souchez toward Lens, during the
last week. The gain of ground is
greater than in any action since the
capture of Vimy ridge and the land

The condition of the city water has

ing clearly that the trouble orig-
liates in the stagnant pools between
Dale and Shawnee. The only relief
will come from a rain heavy enough
to wash the river out and carry away
the vegetable growths.
Upon the request of Supt. Moon of
the water department, Dr. J. H.
Scott sent two men up the river, one
on each side, to make a careful ex-
amination of the stream in search for
any source of contamination. It had
been reported that alfalfa hay had
been thrown Into the stream and had

was found.

to a point above McLoud. They
found that the farther west they went j
the purer the water appeared. This
is partly accounted for by the fact
that the vicinity of McLoud is the
source of most of the water in the
river in dry years, and partly by the
fact that the water was free from
vegetable growth there.
MemberB of the council have been
much concerned about the condition
ol the water, and Alderman Fred
Carey of the first ward lias prepared
a resolution for presentation ai the
next meeting, the adoption of which
he will push. The resolution looks
to the securing of a supply of drink-
able water for the city, and is as
follows:

its water supply, is now failing to

Every woman in Oklahoma will be
asked to sign a membership card in
the food administration organization.
Every woman in every other state
an-1 will also be asked to sign the pledge,
which will form the basis for Mr.
Hoover's plan to feed a nation with-
out first paying tribute to the food
speculators who have robbed consum-
ers of millions in the past two years.
The purpose of obtaining signa-
tures to the membership coupons is
not to get housewives to feed their
families less well. It is to perfect
such an organization that better food
can be provided at less cost, and
in addition to tills, certain kinds of
food must be conserved for our own
soldiers and tor the soldiers ot our
allies if we are to win the war and
stop the toll of death and destruc-

Hoover wants such an organization of
consumers that he can work with

of the nation.
The organization will also aid the

union, with Niagara county, N. Y., and
three precincts in Wyoming missing,
show a total registration of 9,659,382,
or 95.9 per cent ot the Census Bu-
reau's estimate, allowance being made
for the missing territory The appar-
ent shortage, about 413,000, is consid-
erably less than the number of men
21 to 30 years ot age. Inclusive, who
;\re estimated by the war department
to have been In the various branches
ot the military and naval services of
the United States on June 5, and for
that reason exempt from the require-
ment of registration. Tills number is
eeo.ooo. On the face of these figures,
therefore, it appears that the num-
ber of men between the ages of 21 and
31 in the United Stales Is slightly in
excess of the number estimated by
the Census Bureau on May 12—10,-
079,000.
Of the 9,659,382 registrants report-
ed, 7,347,794 are white citizens; 953,-
899 are colored citizens; 1,239,865 are
unnaturalized foreigners from coun-
tries other than Germany; 111,823
are unnaturalized Germans, including
"declarants," that is, persons having
declared their Intention to become cit-
izens but not having recoived their
tinal naturalization papers; and 6,001
are Indians. The registrars were In-
structed by the war department to in-
clude with white citizens all declar-
ants from countries with which the
United States was not at war, but a
comparison of the registration figures
with the reports of the Census Bu-
reau and the bureaus of immigration
arid naturalization indicates th«t most
of the declarants reglsted as aliens.
There Is nothing in the returns to
indicate that there has been any gen-
eral attempt at evasion of registra-
tion by any Important element of the
population. Ill a few states the reg-
istration was far below the estimates,
but tills shortage was offset by regis-
tration In excess of the estimates In
other states. This is because the last
Federal Census was taken in 191
and only a tew states have enumer-
ated their inhabitants since that year,
so that the Census Bureau had few
reliable data as to the abnormal
Shirtings of population which
takentaken place between |
parts of the country In recent years,
and particularly since the outbreak
of the war gave so great an Impetus
to the manufacture of munitions and
other commodities needed by the bel-
ligerents. The manufacturing indus-
tries thus affected are located mainly
In the northeastern states, and as a
result the population Of theEO states
has increased with abnormal rapid-
ity at the expense of other parts ot
the country. Furthermore, the In-
creases and decreases have been very
largely in the very class covered by
the registration—that is, men between
the ages of 21 and 31.
It was expected, therefore, that for
certain states the estimates—which,
in tho absence of definite informa-
tion as trt the extent of the abnormal
movement of population, and partic-
ularly Of the male population between
the ages of 21 and 31, Just referred
were necessarily based on the as'
sumptions that the Increase In pop
illation which took place in each state
between 1900 and 1910 has continued
since the latter year and that the pro-
portion ot males between 21 and 31
years of age has remained unchanged
—would be wide of the mark.
The most pronounced discrepancies
appear for Washington, in which the
registration amounted to 49.8 pre cent
ot the estimate; for Oregon, In w'beh
It was 57.9 per cent; for North Dako-
ta with 73 per cent; for Wyoming, for
which the report, with three precincts
missing, indicates a registration of
about 65 per cent ot the estimate; for
Nevada, with 71.6 per cent; and tor
South Dakota, with 72.1 per cent. In
no other state was the registration
less than 75 per cent of the estimate.
On the other hand, 13 states Ari-
zona, Connecticut, Delaware, l'"'"0'*-
Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michi-
gan, Montana, New Hampshire, New
Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio and Wis-
consin exceeded their estimates the
greatest percentages of excess being
those for Michigan, 29.4; Connecticut,
29 3' Montana, 20.4; and Ohio, 14.4.
It is probable that the population
of certain states- particularly Wash-
ington and Oregon—has not declined
to so great an extent an would he
indicated by the registration figures,
since a very considerable proportion
of the persons migrating from them
has consisted of young men between
the ages of 21 and 31.
The original census estimates are
smaller for some states than those
which have been used by the war de-
partment. This is because in the
compilation of the war department es-
timates, which were originally pre-
pared for use in apportioning sup-
plies of registration cards to mayors
and sheriffs throughout the country,
liberal additions were made to the
presided, and nearly all the adults
present wero called upon and respond-
ed with appropriate sentiments con-
gratulating the young volunteer upon
the patriotic step he has taken. Eugene
was presented with a handsome pipe
and a humidor of tobacco, the gift of
his associates in the News-Herald ser-
vice.
Chief Justice J. F. Sharp of the Su-
preme Court, spending the week-end
with his children, Mr. and Mrs. J.
Frank Buck, was an interested specta-
tor of the proceedings, ('ailed upon
by Mr. Weaver, the Chief Justice brief-
ly addressed the gathering. Such an
assemblage of employers and employ-
ees in close fraternity, said he, was
prophetic of a greater world's demo-
cracy and fraternity that is to come
as one of the big results of the world's
war. He congratulated Mr. Carleton
upon his genuine patriotism as shown
by his volunteering in his country's
cause.
Among those making talks were
Howard Parker, State Reporter, and
Mrs. S. J. Martin of Howling Green,
Ky., who is visiting her sister, Miss
Jernigan. Mrs. Martin spoke feelingly
from the standpoint of tho American
mother. She has but one child, a son
not yet out of his teens. At first alarm
of war she rebelled at the very Idea
of giving up her boy to the perils of
war, she said, but now after fighting
a battle in her own heart she was
resigned to let him go when his coun-
try calls him.
Stirring patriotic music was furn-
ished by Miss Ola Gulledge, assisted by

Cheaper Bread.
London, June 30.—In a speech to-
day at Dundee, Premier Lloyd George
said that if necessary the government
would resort to the exchequer in or-
der that the price of bread should be
within the compass of the bulk of the
people.
"We have driven the great army of
Germany underground,'' said Premier
Lloyd George in a speech here today.
"When a great army is driven to
these tactics it is the beginning of the
end; it means that we are pounding
a sense of inferiority into every pore
of the German military mind.
"What is good for the war, is even
better after the war. As long as the
Prussians have an idea of superiority
in their minds Europe will not be a
decent place for people to live in
peace. It will be easier after thi9."
The Prussian, said Mr. Lloyd George
has many virtues, but a sense of hu-
mility has never been among them.
The premier added that the Prussians
are now being taught the virtue of
humanity with a fierce and relentless
lash.
Miss Pearl Cranston, who 1b attend-
ing Normal at Ada, is spending a few
days with her mother, Mrs. L. Crans-
ton.
especially those in which munitions
plants are located—that were believed
to have grown at abnormal rates dur-
ing recent years, whereas no corre-
sponding reductions could be made
for the localities from which these
abnormal accretions of population
were drawn. This did not particular-
ly matter, since the main object in
view was to Insure the sending of an
adequate supply of registration cards
to each mayors and sheriff, but when
the city and county figures were to-
talized the result was an exaggera-
tion of the estimates for the United
States as a whole and for certain of
the states.
The following table shows, by
states, the total registration, tho num-
ber of unnaturalized Germans (in-
luding those who have declared their
intention to become citizens), and the
percentage which the total represents
of the census estimate:

Labi Tuesday at the First Presby-

pecially agreeing that they would be
