HIGH HONOR GIVEN
TO WILFORD ALLEN
Former Pullman Editor Appointed a
Member of the Industrial Acci
dent Commission of Oregon
Friends of Wilford Allen, for
many years publisher of The Pull
man Herald, will be interested in the
following dispatch, published in the
Oregonlu.i of April 24:
Salem, Ore.. April 23. — Wilford
Allen, editor of the Rogue River
Courier ami president of the Grants
Pass Commercial Club, today was ap
pointed by Governor rVithjrcomba as
a member of the industrial Accident
Commission, to fill the place left va
cant by Lieutenant Colonel Carle
A brains, who also was chairman of
Ihe Commission. Lieutenant Colonel
A brains is with the Third Oregon In
fantry, which was called out at the
declaration of war.
The appointment of Mr. Allen de
pends, for its duration, entirely upon
the duration of the present war.
At any lime upon the return of
Lieutenant Colonel Abrams, after be
in.? released from service, Mr. Allen
will voluntarily leave the position.
The commission will now Include
Mr. Allen. Harvey Beck with and W.
A. Marshall. It is not known beth
el Caere will be any reorganization,
but ;, is probable that a temporary
chairman will be selected to serve
as head of the commission until the
urn of Lieutenant Colonel Alt
rams.
Under the law the commissioners,
in tin- absence of one of tho commis
sioners, may either select a deputy,
or his abscnca may be filled by the
appointment of a commissioner by
the governor.
"I believe it better that a commis
sioner be named," stated Governor
Withycombe in reference to the ap
pointment. "This commission is
one of the most important of any in
the state, and its work is of such a
nature as to make it practically im
perative that there be three commis
sioners, rather than two commission
ers and a deputy.
"It is understood that Mr. Allen
will serve only during the absence of
Lieutenant Colonel Abrams while
thai officer is away on military duty.
"Mr. Allen will come to the com
mission with the highest of recom
mendations from those who know
him. l have known Mr, Allen Inti
mately lor a number of years, and I
know bis work will reflect credit on
the commission.
"It is essential, with a commission
of this kind, that men of consider
able ability be named to perform the
duties which devolve upon the office,
and Mr. Allen is a man of that
caliber."

turned last Saturday from their new
ly acquired Montana homesteads,

pancy. Both the Pullman men, whose

found a surface vein of coal which
will provide fuel for many years to
come.
