BIG QUESTIONS WAR RAISES
Tremendous Variety of Problems Must Be Solved by Those Directing
 the World Conflict.

Somewhere in the Australian hinter- land railway trackage iS being pulled up in order to be laid down again in The desert of Sinai or along the Tigris or in Albania or near the White sea or ill the secor of Arras, says d thoughtful writer ill New York jour nal.
 Given shipload of iron ore, it is for someone to decide whether that iron is to be shell, or barbed wire, or steel helmet, or airplane engine, or anti-submarine net, or boat anchor, or travelling crane, or farm tractor for the raising of potatoes to feed the crew of the ship that brings Chinese coolies from Canton to Marseilles to handle other masses of iron ore at the Crensot armament factories.
 And when you multiply the. task by the number of departments, Var. ad- miralty. agriculture and subsistence when the problem develops into one of determining whether a man can be best used for throwing hand grenadeS at Bullecourt or blowing in Sussex or unloading wheat at Liverpool or manu- facturing boots for the Russian armies in Roumania, it becomes plain how inadequate is the ordinary pencil stub and newspaper margin for winning the war out of hand.

Nationwide Revolution of Malcon- tents Backed By l. w. w., Work ing Class Union and Others Un-
 earthed at Enid, Oklahoma.

Enid, Okla.-A revolution of 2,0OO.- 900 malcontents, nationwide in scope, backed by the I. w. w. and AS affiliat- ed organizations, including the Work ing Class Union, in which it was planned to apply the torch to small cities. shoot officers of the govern ment and demoralize communication, was planned for July 27 last, accord ing to the testimony of Will Hoover, important state witness in the trial of Il anti-draft agitators from Gen. tral Oklahoma.
 The Industrial Workers of the World were to launch the uprising, Hoover said, "Rube Munson," alleged state organizer of the w. C. U., told meeting of the Friendship local in an open cornfield near Sasawaka. At a prearranged time the w. c. U. was to capture small towns, take charge of the banks, burn bridges and cut telegraph wires while the I. w. w. cared for the larger cities in a like manner
 President Wilson and Governor Will Hams (Oklahomal, Hoover said Mun- son declared, would have such a large force of soldiers for personal protec- ton and on the Mexican border that none would be available to send against the rebels.
 Witness testified that H. c. Spence, accused state secretary of the w. c. U., at a meeting in the Lone Dove neighborhood May 20. appointed committee to put out of the way all informers of the grand jury" Spence named Eli Gray and Elsie Market as the informers, Hoover said.
 Members were told by Spence that two carloads of rifles would be avail able when needed and that the w. c. U. had as much right to conscript re- cruits for revolution as the govern ment had to draft men for the trenches in France. At this meeting, early in July, appropriations were made for the purchase of 100 pounds of dynamite, Hoover declared.
 The purpose of the organization as outlined by Munson, Hoover swore, was to band together to resist the draft Farmers were told by MunSon, witness said, that he was there to help them and that through the l. w. w. financial aid was assured from German sources.
 The antidraft rioters in Central Oklahoma began August 2. Coinci- dent with their inception. H. c. Spece was arrested at Holdenville and is being held in the state penitentiaTy pending action by a federal grand jury.

 'Piang, am about to decorate you with the emblem of our government i; these infantry crosS-guns 1 shall pin your breast'-the dignified governor reached forward to make good his words, but paused in embarrassment, the speech dying on his lips. He gazed in dismay at the scantily elothe little savage, standing straight and expect ant before him.
 "I shall place this emblem again began the worthy officials. There was a litter among the spectators.
 "Piang, eagerly eyeing the treasure, wondered why the governor delayed. Suddenly gleam of understanding broke over Piang, and he grinned boardly. With the tip of his finger he touched the shining cross-guns, then his necklace of crocodile teeth The situation was saved. Nich- olas.

STATES CREDIT E
 GREATLY ENHANCED
NEW YORK HAS LIFTED ITS BAN AGAINST ARKANSAS SE-
 CURlTIES.
FIRST TIME SINCE 1885
Recent Sale of s75o,ooo in Notes, Pro- tected By a Sinking Fund, Has Greatly Strengthened Arkansas
 Credit in Security Markets.

Little Rock
 For the first time since 1885. Ark ansas' securities have been approved as acceptable investments for New York savings banks. thus greatly add ing to the credit of the state This information was conveyed in mes sage to Van B Simms, assistant state comptroller, by the William R. Comp ton company of St Louis The laws of the state of New York provide that nc bonds or evidence of indebtedness of any state can be received IS invest m"nts for savings banks, where any indebtedness that accrued before 1878 has been repudiated or default ed since 1878. MT. Simms was able to convince the attorney general of New York and the New York authorities that Arkansas has maintained her credit in such a way as to meet the provisions of the New York act. The recent sale of s750,000 in Arkansas notes, protected by a sinking fund of one-eighth of mill, without increas- cd taxation. at the low rate of four and three-fourths per cent, has greatly strengthened Arkansas credit in the security markets of the country This. in the opinion of Governor Brough and the State Comptroller's Depart ment will be worth millions of dollars to the state in enhanced and stable credit for public investments in Ark ansas.
 Before this year and before this de cision of the attorney general of the State of New York, Arkansas was one of six states whose securities were not received as investments for New York savings banks.
