The average person has no ap- preciation of the tremendous amount of equiptment to get out three publications with such big} circulation as the Saturday Evening Post, Ladies’ Home Journal and Country Gentleman. These periodicals require presses of various kinds. For example, there are now in use 27 multi-color presses, 30 presses that print in two colors, and 98 presses that print in the plain black. The average weight of these presses is perhaps 40 tons. There are six more multi- color presses being built, and 35} two-color presses and 17 black presses.

Tacoma.—Rigid inquiry into the cause of the explosion of a six-inch field gun at the Camp Lewis artillery range, which killed three men and painfully wounded five other members of the Oregon coast artillery, national guard, will be made. The investiga- tion thus far shows that only a poor fuse, a possible flaw in the gun itself, or a flaw in the shell could have caused the fatal accident. Governor Ben W. Olcott, of Oregon, narrowly missed being injured in the tragedy. Accompanied by Mrs. Olectt und several Camp Lewis officers, the governor had left the gun but a few minutes before the explosion The dead were Corporal Edward G. Scott, 24 com pany, Oregon coast artillery, Marsh field, Or.; Corporal Clyde R. Dundin ger, 2d company, Oregon coast artil lery, Marshfield, Or.; Private Ralph Fraley, lst company, Oregon coast ar tillery, Ashland, Or. Sectt and Fraley were killed instantly.

GOV. COX CONFERS WITH PRESIDENT Washington—James M. Cox nounced that if elected president he “would endegvor with all my strength to give what President Wilson prom ised to those who sacrificed in the great war.” His statement followed an hour's conference with the presi- dent at the White House at which Franklin D. Roosevelt, the democratic vice-presidential nominee, was present. | The president in a formal statement, after the conference, declared that he and the governor “were absolutely at | one with regard to the great issue of the league of nations” and that the governor was ready to be the “cham- pion in every respect of the honor of the nation and the secure peace of the | world.” | Asked as to the president's health, | “In splendid | condition; in most agreeable shape.” | HARDING QUESTIONS COX | Governor Cox replied: Republican Nominee Asks Opponent to Declare Foreign Policy.
