The Winslow mail., 1917-08-10

The editor of the Gallup 1nde-
pendent, w. H. Hams, is bad
man, but it only required two
brave gun men, each armed with
a Winchester and a revolver to
invade his office and place him
under arrest. The brave sheriff
of Mckinley county, with his bat
terry of artillery. was across the
street as a reserve force in case
of need. 1t is curdling to think
what might have happened if
the sheriff had gone to the Office
unarmed and told Hams he, was
under arrest to appear before the
council of defense. The general
ship of Sheriff Roberts in de-
ploying the two gun men out as
skirmishers, while he brought up
the rear to prevent any flank
movement by the enemy, cannot
be too highly praised, and marks
him as one of the heroes of the
hour. There ought to be spec
ial medal awarded the sheriff for
bravery to pin on his manly
breast. We can't understand
why they did not bring up the
mounted machine gun also.
The Winslow mail., 1917-08-10

A gun man is always a physi-
cal and moral coward. That is
the reason he carries a gun.

BULGARIA IN PEACE MOVE

peror William and King Ferdinand OF
Bulgaria have been exchanging assur-
ances at Sofia of the unsuitable 10y
atty Of Bulgaria and Germany to each
other and of the permanent nature OF
the alliance of the two countries, Bul-
garian agents abroad have been en-

entente powers on the subject OF peace
and subsequent relations.
Their efforts are declared to be In
spired by apprehension that Germany
and Austria-Hungary, particularly
the latter, may not be overzealous in
defending Bulgaria's interest at the
peace conference, as well as by a de-
sire on Bulgaria's part to escape
from revolving in an exclusively Ger
man orbit after the war.

4 zEPPELINS ARE SHOT DOWN
German Airships Which Attacked
England Are Destroyed by French
Gunners and Airmen.

Paris, Oct. 23.-Although at first it
was thought that the visit Of the Yep
pelin fleet to France was>an independ-
ent raid, carrying out the threat made
in a German wireless message to de-
stroy Paris in reprisal for French air
raids on German towns, it now is gen.
orally believed that these eight Zeppe-
Inns, four of which were destroyed or
captured, we're returning from Eng
land, that they had lost their bearings.
The log book of the Zeppelin which
landed intact shows that she had been
to England, and prisoners from three
other airships confirm this.
Of the four Zeppelins lost two were
destroyed and two were forced to de-
scend. The two disabled airships, I'M

fen,ye posts, descended in the S,aone

CHANGE DRAFT Plan.
NEW REGULATIONS FIX STATUS
OF ALL MEN WHO HAVE
REGISTERED.
DIVIDED INTO FIVE CLASSES
Men Without Dependents Will Be
Called First Unless Vital to War
lndustry-Date for Next In
crement to Be Jan. 1.

Washington, Oct. 23.-New draft
regulations, postponing the physical
examination Of the remaining 100000
draft registrants until they are called
for military service, and assigning the
men to five classes, thus determining
the order of their call to the colors,
were announced on Saturday by Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder
1t was indicated that January / will
be the date of the next call.
Under the new regulations it will be
possible for registrant to determine
whether he will be called in the first
100000 additional men to be sum-
moned, the second 100000, or later
contingentS.
The changed system will reduce the
Rabors of local boards by so per cent
by reversing the present process Of
first conducting physical examinations
and then hearing exemption claims.
Hereafter all economic questions will
be settled before the physical examina-
ton is held.
Here is the new system in a nut
shell:
Five classes of draft registrants are
established approximately as follows:
First-Men with absolutely no de-
pendents.
Second-Skilled farm laborers or
others slightly less available for mill
tary service than the first class.
Third-Skilled labOrerS and men
whose work is deemed vital to war in
dustries.
Fourth-Married men with children
whose families are wholly dependent
upon them for support.
Fifth-Cr ipples, mental detectives,
and those specifically exempted from
military service.
Registrars will be assigned to one
of these classes.
Under the new system local boards
will send out to each enlisted man on
its list a QUESTIONABLE or catalogue of
queries to be known as mo. 1,O0O,"
going into minute detail as to the fam
lily life, responsibility and adaptability
of the individual. These questions

individual fills in the blanks with an
swers and returns the QUESTIONABLE to
the local board.
After that the local board decides in
what class to put the selected man,
notifying him of it's verdict. The man,
if not satisfied with the decision Of
the board, may appeal to the district
board, which will then review the mat
ter. The district boards verdict in
event of appeal will be final.

In order to make profit from pigs
1t is necessary to give them the prop

TO END HIGH PRICES
HOOVER DECLARES CORNER HAS
BEEN TURNED" IN COST.
Asserts Wholesale Prices Are Much
Lower Now Than Years Ago
BIames Retailers.

Washington, Oct. 20.-Food Admin
istrator Hoover announced on Thurs
day that the corner has been turned
in high prices"
He has gone as far as he can in
price reduction, he says, and assails
the retailers for not doing their part.
The next congress will probably be
asked to give him power to force the
retailers to abstain from profiteering.
MIR. Hoover says:
Most of the essential commodities
should, one after another, continue to
show reductions between now and the
end of the year. The food admins
traitor has no control of either the
grower or his organizations, nor Of the
great majority or retailers.
'The distribution chain lying be-
tween the warehouse, wholesalers,
commission men and manufacturers of
prime commodities has required a
great deal Of study and development
for it's proper regulation, and these
regulations are coming into force
now"
Mr.. Hoover said he had every hope
the retailers will cooperate, as the
farmers and other food handlers are
cooperating, to feed the nation and
the allies at reasonable prices. Every
body along the line down to the re-
taller, he declared, already is helping.
But retail prices do not by any means
reflect the wholesale prices.

u. S. VesseIs-Reack Port on
French Liner.

An Atlantic Port, Oct. 22.-Attacks
on three American sailingships by Ger

crews, who reached here on French
liner. Captain Mortensen of the

fired on by U-boat, but not hit. The
Germans then came alongside, looted
her and sank her with bombs, he said.
Another crew, who said they were
from the American schooner Crockett
of Philadelphia, reported that three
months ago their ship was torpedoed
by submarine near Brest, but did
not sink. The Germans looted her
and then abandoned her, and later,
they said, she was towed into Brest
and sold. She had cargo Of oil.
Also on the same liner was the crew
OF the four-masted schooner Henry
Lippitt, 800 tons, of Philadelphia,
whose sinking had previously been re-
ported.

PEACE NOT IN SIGHT
PREMIER LLOYD GEORGE or
ENGLAND MAKES STATEMENT
AT MASS MEETING
RUSS DELAY ALLIED VICTORY
Declares Military Collapse Prevents
Triumph This Year-Entente
Working in the Greatest
Harmony

London, Oct 24.--s9 have scanned
the horizon intently,' Premier Lloyd
George stated, 'and can see no terms
in sight which will lead to enduring
peace. The only terms now possible
would mean an armed truce ending in
an even more frightful struggle"
The prime minister was addressing
an enthusiastic mass meeting of TO-
900 persons in Albert hall, called to
inaugurate a nationwide campaign OF
economy.
The premier said he had hoped the
enemy's terrible power might be bro
ken this year, but that the temporary
collapse of the Russian military power
had postponed this hope. Time, how
ever, was on the side of the allies, he
added. Time once was neutral, but
two things had changed namely,
the advent of America, whose man
power was the best fighting material
in the world, and the increasing fail
ure of the German submarine war.
The allies were working in the
greatest harmony Mr.. Lloyd-George
continued. He said they were on the
eve of the most important inter-aliied
conference ever held, at which for the
first time representatives of America
and of the Russian democracy would
be present. He stated that the con-
ference meant to determine the ulti-
mate issue of the war.
1t must be settled now, once for all.
he declared. If the war should be re-
newed after 80 years more of scientific
application itiwould mean the death
of civilization Brute force must be
dethrOned forever.
