demonstration of knesding bread and
patting biscuit as the vehicle rolled up

The wagon was sent out by the New
York City Food Aid Committee, which
has been engaged all summer IN teach
ing housewives how 10 conserve food.
The work has been in branch head

Farmers Exemption
Asked of Wilson to
Swell Nations Food

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-Spokesmen
for the nations organized farmers
asked President wilson to-day to order
a more liberal application of the army
draft law to farm labor IN order that
agriculture may do its part in the war.
They urged that the government not
only should exempt men who apply, but
should make it its business TO keep
skilled farmers out of the military ser
vice and require them 10 remain at
their posts as producers.
The delegation that called at the
White House was headed by commit
tee of the Federal Board Ct Farm Or
carnations and included the legislative
committee of the National Grange and
members of the House AMI Senate from
the great agricultural states. The Fed
eral boards committee presented me-
mortal setting forth the farmers situa-
alton and formally asking relief.
"If the selective service act is based
upon the desire Of the government TO
put each man where he may serve his
country best" the memorial says,
then the Administration OF the act
should not limit exemption TO those
who apply for il. as it does now. MANY
farmers who should be exempt refuse
10 apply. Many young men voluntarily
enlist in the army who can serve most
usefully elsewhere. We ourselves
know Of many young farmers who have
left the farm for the army, TO the loss
of the nation as a whole.
Because the world is short of food
the government has asked the farmers
as a patriotic service to increase their
product. In answer TO the call the
farmers have done, and will do. their
best, but already a large proportion
Of the farms are undermined.
"The situation demands prompt and
effective action on the part Of the
government. There is growing unrest
/ and dissatisfaction on the farms. based
/ in great part upon the well founded be-
/ lief that the purpose Of the govern
ment is not carried out. The organ
! lied farmers of America look to YOU
TO set this matter right

War Rights Bill Revised
New Section Drafted Asking
u. S. Guarantee on Policies

WASHINGTON, Sept. PA new in
surance section for the Administra-
ton soldiers and sailors civil rights
bill, providing a government guarantee
for one year against lapse or forfeit
ure of insurance policies, was agreed
on to-day at conference OF War De-
partment officials and insurance com
psny representatives.
Insurance men have protested tha.
the section, as originally drawn, re-
curing that the companies themselves
keep policies in force, impaired con-
tracts and was unconstitutional. Tn
der the new plan. which, like the old
one, would affect insurance contracts
not exceeding a face value of $4,000,
the government would deposit bonds
as security for defaulted premiums,
holding as it's own security a first
lien on the value of the policy.

Greece to Sell Kings Stable
Auction to Dispose of Struct-

ATHENS, Aug. 3i.-One Of the sign.
that democracy has taken the place OF
royalty is the public notice that tho
Kings royal stables will be sold at
auction. The stables are in the very
heart OF Athens, occupying whole
block on the two main streets.
Now that Premier Venirelos has re-
stored democratic administration,
one of the FIRST moves has been to dis
pose Of this structure.
The royal stables were little short OF
an arsenal during the exciting met
dents of the last year. Alongside them
a machine gun was posted during the
attack on the Venizelists last Deem
her. The gun was trained toward me

Legation alongside. II was only the
warning of the American Minister, de-
livered TO the gunners by Captain
Davis, the American military attache.

by the deadly fire Of this machine gun
