TT looks like a certainty that the
name of Woodrow Wilson will
be the only one seriously put
forth as a candidate for presi-
dent when the Democrats meet in ma
tional convention in st. Louis on
June IA.
Incorporated In the call for the con-
yention issued by William Il. Nc
| Combs. chairman of the Democratic
national committee, is the plank in the
| Democratic party's platform which
was adopted at Baltimore providing
for an expression of preference for
presidential candidates and the selec-
ton of all delegates and alternates at
primaries to be conducted by the party
In such states as do not provide for
| these primaries by law.
Under this call there will be LOSS
delegates in the convention. Mr.. Nc
! Combs ia ex officio chairman of a com
mittee on arrangements which Is COM
posed of members of the national CON-
mittee.
There will be very few federal office
holders in the Democratic convention.
This departure from the established
practice of a president seeking a re
nomination is in accordance with the
wishes of Mr.. Wilson himself.
In the coming convention there will

that actuated the president in declar-
ing he would not seek a denomination
was his determination 10 keep mem
bers of his cabinet and men he had ap-
pointed to office from active participa-
tion in the nominating convention.
The New York organization wanted
TO send as q delegate at large Secre-
tarv of the Treasury McAdoo, who is
also n son-in-laW of the president. The
president discouraged this proposition
Sneaker Clark has declined to be a
delegate at large from Missouri, as has
Third Assistant Postmaster General
Dockery, who halls from the same
state. Other federal oficeholders also
have declined the honor. The North
Carolina Democrats wanted to send
| Secretary Daniels, but he has an
nounced he will not accept. Postmas-
ter General Burleson was also slated
es n delegate from Texas, but he will
not go.
In furtherance of the president
wish. members of the Democratic ma
tiona1 committee have conferred with
the leaders of their states, with the re-
sult that only men who do not hold
office under the administration will be
sent TO st. Louis. a number of sena-
tors and representatives will, of course
agrre prominently in the proceedings
ot ST Louis, but they arc not to be re

The Iron Cross had for long been
known as one of the most famous of
European war decorations. The pro-
posal to bestow a reward Of the kind
for distinguished service in the telo'
and, since the foundation Of the Ger
man navy, at sea, originated with the
war of liberation. in 1913. There were
again many distributions of the cross
during the war of unity against
France in 1870. With the shape Of the
iron cross many pictures have made
us familiar. The material from which
it is constructed is cast iron, and it
has an edging of silver. The 1885
crosses have the initials F. w. (Fried-
rich Wilhelm) in the center; those of
1870 w. (Wilhelm). The bestowal
of the decoration carries with it a
small allowance to the rank and file

ganism by thorough examination OF
all new stock whether turkeys, fowls,
geese or other domestic birds.
2. Keep the turkeys on grounds
which are as fresh as can be OBJ
tanned and, above all, keep them iso-
lated from fowls and other domestic
birds. rJ-. y !. Ais.1 - - @-
3. Keep every turkey in the flock
under close observation in order to
separate and at once isolate any bird
which gives evidence Of the disease.
To facilitate such observations it is
helpful to leg-band each individual and
to record its weight from time to time.
4. II it is known that blackhead is
present in any of the poultry, that
yard and house should be kept free
from sparrows, rats and mice, which
are carriers of the organism which
causes the disease.
5. In fattening turkeys for the mar
ket, increase the rations gradually.
Overlooking or a sudden increase in
the ration will not cause blackhead,
but frequently causes death of birds
in which blackhead is present.
6. The bodies Of all birds which
have died of blackhead should be
burned or buried Immediately.
On most farms, it is out of the
question to put into practice al Of
these recommendations especially
those in regard to the isolation OF
the flock The general practice is to
allow the turkeys to mingle with the
other fowls. Unless these recommen'
dations can be rather closely fol-
lowed, however, it is not advisable
to attempt to raise turkeys after the
disease has once made its appear
ance. The turkeys in your flock
which do not appear to be infected
may become chronic carriers Of the
disease. If it is necessary foi' you
to rear turkeys next season on ground
which has been occupied by fowls or
by diseased turkeys, you are very like
! ly to experience the same trouble.

New York, June THE college is

tary training and modern curriculum
does not provide room enough for such
instruction in way which would
count in a crisis, Henry S. Pritchett
president of the Carnegie foundation
for the advancement of teaching, de-
clared today at the New York uniyers-
ltv commencement exercises.
Mr.. Pritchett said further that "the
contribution of the land grant colleges
to the preparation of a reserve of citi-
zen soldiery was practically negligi-
BILE He ridiculed the assumption
OF our legislators that military train
ing could be made a by-product of a
college course" And declared that
many of the land grant colleges, made
possible by the Morrill, act of 1862,
continue the required military only ito
obtain the constitutional grant"
He said others give only the min
imum of military drill" and that the
individual student in many cases seeks
to escape his military duties with as
scant performance as possible" In
der this act, he said, 29,036 students
received training last year, making a
total today of more than 100000 men
between the ages of 10 and 80 years
trained in this manner.

mer Premier and present Minister O
communications Rhallys also has
say about it. He does not always agre.

the signature of the regular censo,
becomes meaningless. No one sees MI
Rhallys censor. The messages ar,
sent to him. he works his will with
them, and they are returned There
Is no appeal and no possibility of ex.
PLANTATION or alteration.
But former Premier Demetrios Con.
naris has no great faith in the iudg.
ment of either of his colleagues. He is
minister OF interior, and as such is
head of all the police, and of the secret
police in particular, and any messages
| renectlng on him fail to arrive at their
destination. And requests for investi-
/ cation prove fruitless waste of effort
In the matter of royal messages
interviews with His Majesty, the Kine
| OF the Hellenes, or dispatches in
which the opinions of Constantine /
are cited or referred to, there is still
another censorship-that of Count
Mercatl. grand master of ceremonies
OF the court of Greece. Telegrams of
this nature are referred to the king
himself, and on his approval of them
Count Mercati initials each page and
writes note at the bottom directing
the telegraph authorities to pass the
message-'by order of the king"
But the messages do not pass a bit
more for having received this sanction
or the palace. Minister of Communi-
cations Rhallys inspects them whether
or not they have the kings approval
Recently a very important paragrapb
IN an interview given by King Con
stantlne to the correspondent of the
Associated Press was lost" in this
way When the matter was brought
to the attention of the sovereign he
concluded that Minister Rhallys was
probably quite wise in deleting the
paragraph in question, and there the
discussion ended
The correspondent of the Rerline,
Tageblatt short time ago created a
sensation by avoiding all censorship or
an interview which he had had with
hing constantine. Although the mon
arch had made it condition of his
receiving the German journalist thar
there be no interview. the Berlin cor
respondent was altogether too delight

sion of his first meeting with the
Greek sovereign to resist temptation
But he was too wiley to try to send
