New Men In Evideace.

Time makes many changes. In a
score of years few men who were a
power In past conventions were pres

had. Henry Cabot Lodge is the most

He was also a factor and influential in
the convention of 1916. Myron'T. Her

Lodge was the Reed leader and Her

Greedy Munition Men in the East Have Chased .LabOrerS Away by

OTTAWA. Aug. 23-Munition man ufacturers are responsible for the shortage of labor according to d.. IA. McClelland, yicepresident of the international machinists' union, who is in the city He cited the case of Hamilton as an instance. In this city there was a strike recently Of l5OO machinists. The conciliauon board awarded lower wage than the men asked "The manufacturers would not even accede to this he said Tt is owing Co their stupidity and greed Of the manufacturers that there is shortage of labor, which I do not believe exists
 Many, he said, dcspairng Of an improvement in conditions, had gone west for the harvesting season, leav- ing Western Ontario depleted of la borers.
 Record Wages Offered
 OTTAWA. Aug. 23.-"Lured by re- ports of record wages in the west so many farm laborers have left the country districts around Ottawa that the labor shortage for the harvest here is more acute than ever.
 It is reported that the big finan. cial inducements held out in the west for farm help will be the cause Of considerable waste in produce in parts of the east. In some cases, ey- en farmers with their crops not all harvested in the fields of Ottawa Valley. have gone west on the har- vesters' excursion in quest of high wages offering the prairie pro? vinces.
 There are several cases in dis. tricts near Ottawa where fathers with several sons. content with get ting off the bountiful hay crop, have gone to help harvest the wheat in the west.
 In one district of Carleton county, which up till recently had suffic- tent men to harvest the crop, there are now only four young men left, the others having gone west.

CORPORAL OF
 FRENCH ARMY
 TAKES TRENCH
Captures One Hundred of the Germans Single Handed in Daring
 Mane1ver.
HERO GIVEN DECORATION

PARIS. Aug. 7.- (SpeciaD An obscure corporal has contributed the most amazing single exploit of the war. With the aid of one comrade he captured a German trench and made two officers and 100 men his prisoners.
 The story has been officially cor roborated by the army and Corporal Goutaubler the hero or the exploit. was decorated with the military cross by President Poincare himself.
 When Corporal Goutcabler was paraded before President Poincare on the recent visit of the latter to the Somme front he told the story of his feat at the request of the President.
 Advances Under Fire
 lt was on July 20 before Hem Wood. The French troops had just dashed forward at the German posi-. tions. The first wave. swept over the enemy's trenches and the sec. ond had followed to complete the operation. However from a hollow toward the right well sustained fusillade was being poured on the flank of the attackers.
 Gouteaubler. who was at the right wing of the second wave, called out to one man: "Guillot. come with me" The two men approached the spot from whence the firing came. They glided from tree to tree until they were close to the shelter where a German company was holding out Guillot threw bombs as fast as he could into the midst and the fire ceased.
 Marshals Them Himself
 "Surrender!" shouted the corporal in stentorlan voice from behind a tree
 In response to his demand 100 Germans emerged from the shelter with uplfted hands, led by two off cers.
 Pass along this way" shouted Gouteabler from his hiding place. "Go out of the wood at once and march to the rear"
 Two minutes later the 100 Ger mans sheparded by the corporal and Guinot arrived at the French lines.
 The prisoners admitted that some of the Germans remained in the shel- ter. Come on, Guillot let us go and fetch them said Gouteaubler.
 The men started back, but Guil- lot fell with bullet in his breast and the corporal had to abandon his enterprise.
