MOBILIZE INDUSTRIES
OF THIS COUNTRY,
Many Conditions Are Being Altered
From Decade to Decade.

Many Conditions Are Being Altered
From Decade to Decade.
What is more important is that the
industries and resources of the country
should be available and ready for
mobilization. 1t is the more impera-
lively necessary, therefore. that we
should promptly devise means for do
ing what we have not yet done-that
we should give intelligent federal aid
and stimulation to Industrial and voca-
tional education, as we have long done
in the large field of our agricultural
industry; that at the same time that
we safeguard and conserve the natural
resources OF the country we should
put them at the disposal of those who
will use them promptly and tntelli-
gently. as was sought to be done In
the admirable bills submitted to the
last congress from its committees on
the public lands, bills which l earnest
- recommend in principle to your con-
si&ierat1on; that we should put into
early operation some provision for
rural credits which will add to the ex-
tensive borrowing facilities already
Afforded the farmer by the reserve
bank set adequate 1nstrumentalities
by which long credits may be obtained
On land mortgages and that we should
study more carefully than they have
hitherto been studied the right adapta-
ton OF our economic arrangements to
changing conditions.
Many conditions about which we
have repeatedly legislated are being
altered from decade to decade, 1t is
evident. under our very eyes and are
likely to change even more rapidly
and more radically In the days imme-
dintely ahead Of rs when peace has
returned TO the world and the nations
Of Europe once more take up their
tasks of commerce and industry with
the energy OF those who must besir
themselves to build anew. Just what
these changes Will be no one can Ger.
tainly foresee or confidently predict.
There are no calculable, because nc,
stable, elements in the problem The
most we can do 80 TO make certain
that we have the necessary instrument
tafJes Of information constantly at
orr service 80 that We may be sure
that we know exactly what we are
dealing with when we come to act, IL
lt should be necessary to act at all.
We must first certainly Know what tt
is that we are seeking TO adapt our

TO HAVE LT0N'S JOB NEXT SEPTEMBER
Dean of Board of Assessors Not Active Enough to
 Suit the Bosses.

It was ruz11ored today at cahy hall that William G. Lewis, president of the board of relief, wdl be appointed tax assessor to succeed Julius w. Knowlton when the term of the latter expires August 1st.
 Mir Lewis has been president of the board of relief for a number of years. He is considered to have a good knowledge of the assessab1e values of property in this city. No. reason for refusing a reappointnent to Colonel Knowlton is advanced by those who profess to be on the inside of Repub- Hoan politics but it is believed he has not been active enough and the pres ent Republican machine is giving ap- podntnents only to- the active workers. Mayor Wilson today refused to affirm or deny the report that MT. Lewis will succeed Col. Knowlton.

Even Loafers Won't
 Sleep in Three of
 Local Lodging Houses

Lodging houses in Bridgeport are filled to capacity, and men are nightly turned away according to the report made public today by Rev. C.. W. Simpson, head of the Bridgeport Christian Alliance mission. The con dition in the lodging house district is distressing to the man of small means, many of whom come nightly to the mission and beg to be given beds in places where the charge is reasonable.
 There is virtually no place but the docks and streets for the overflow and the man without any means is in actual distress and has only the police cells in which to lay his head. With all the need for sleeping accommoda- tfons there are said to be three houses on Water street where even the Ioafers will not sleep on account of vermin- Although they enter and pay their money they soon make an exit to the streets, it is said.
 The attention of the health depart ment has been called to these houses and on several occasions an effort has been made to have sanitation enforc- ed. Inspector c. H. Dunbar today said that no attention has been paid to the demands and that measures are now being consid cred that will be drastic in the extreme.

 SALARIES; OFFICIALS ALARMED

As a result of the resignation from the government servce of Major Wal ter G. Penfield, now head of the Bridgeport. Arms Works, and five other officers of the Ordinance De partment of the United States Army, with the accompanying exodus of other experts from the army, strenu- ous efforts are being made to pro- cure a ruling to end the rush of military, men to accept positions with large ammunition and arms factories.
 The resignations of Major Penfie1d and three other experts were made and accepted. Two others are being held up because war officials have become alarmed at the prospect of losing ali the skilled men.
 Secretary of War Carlson has ask ed Attorney General Gregory for an opinion whether officers of the United States Army have an inaHenabIe right to resign their commission in time of peace. The decision will be of far reaching consequence not only to the Government itself, but to every branch of the United States service the Navy, the Marine Corps, and the Coast Guard service-as well as the army.

 THAW SANITY CASE
Process Servers Unable to Locate Former Wife Wanted as a Witness.

New York. June 26-In the 1uA to- day in the court proceedings to deter mine the sanity of Harry K Thaw, it became known that the state is trying to find Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, central figure in the shooting of Stanford White, to place her on the witness stand. Process servers sought her throughout the city but were unable to find her. The search will be kept up. William T. Jerome, former dis trict attorney of New York county, who has baked all Thaw's previous efforts for freedom, may be anoth CT witness for the state.
 MT. Jerome is not connected with the present, proceedings. Other wit nesses include 8 number of persons who are prepared it is said, to testify concerning Thaw's early life. These witnesses probably will take the stand early next week. Thaw's lawyers ex- pect to close their case Monday.
