by Miss Hinrichsen in a score or more

pose Of being used as state statistics.
According TO Inspector Hinrichsen
ii is decidedly interesting to note, by
comparison. the different ways of deal
ing with prisoners in the various parts
Of the state. Some places are most
markedly lenient with their prisoners
while others are eXacting to the letter,
she says.
When asked what the most out
standing difference there was in the
Rock Island police record in cOmpar-

Inspector Hinricnsen was quick to
answer fines"
Never have I seen the like of Rock

FIGHT OR CUT WOOD
BUT MUST DO SERVICE

Christiania. -(Correspond-
ence of The Associated Press "A
bill just passed by the Norwegian leg
islatuTe permits men OF military age
to choose whether they will serve their
regulation period with the colors or
go to wood-cutting in the government
forests. Every man in Norway is
obliged to do 40 DAYS military drill,
but this year owing to the scarcity and
eXpensiyeness of imported fuel-cOal
and cOke-much labor Will be re-
uuired in the public and private for
ests for the telling and cutting of tim
Der and it is intended to utilize the
services of the soldiers for this pur-
pose and for the cutting Of peat.
Laborers' wages in the big indus
trial Centers have risen to an abnor-
NAL height since the beginning of the
European war and consequently men
have been attracted from the country
districts, so that the new legislation is
regarded a 5 a boon by the proprietOrs
of wooded land. The soldier-fOresters
are to be paid the ordinary wages Of
country laborers less 20 per cent, and
q large proportion of this years class
of soldiers have signified their inten-
ton of welding the axe and saw in
stead of the rife and bayonet
In some quarters it is proposed to
extend this scheme and place the re
cruits to work at railroad building
which is much needed All the rail-
roads are owned and run by the gov
eminent and plans have been made for
the construction of a main line across
the country and a local line along the
coast. Delay has been caused by the
lack of labor but it is hoped by means
of the new legislation to overcome
this.
