SAYS Amster Wants Salary

"Mr. Amster made handsome profit
out Of the underwriting of the new
preferred stock and received $4,000
for his services as member of the
reorganization committee. But this
amount did not satisfy him, and when
in the interests of economy it was
thought best by the executive commit
tee to pay no unnecessary salaries and
that no salary should be paid to the
members and chairman of the eXecu-
tive committee or the chairman of the
full board he was the only person vot-
ing against this resolution.
This whole matter could be adjust
ed to the satisfaction of Mr.. Amster
if they would continue him as chair
man of the executive committee on n
salary and have him sit in the Chicago
office and dictate 70 President German
how he should run the road. Mr.. Am
ster has not the necessary train
ing nor the native ability to fill such
an office. and ! object seriously as q
stakeholder of the Rock Island road to
having him manage its affairs.
81 Just wish to ask Mr.. Amster one
general question. How much money
did he make out Of the reorganization
of the Rock Island?

"Old Crowd" Is No More

Lastly. the old charge made by Mr.
Amster that the odd crowd is still in
control is so untrue that it is hardly
worth replying TO. 1t is evidently put
out with the purpose of appealing to
prejudice in order to obtain proxies so
that he can obtain control of the road
and manage it TO suit himself. | sim
cerelv trust that such contingency
is not possible and that the stockhold-
ers of the road will prevent it,"
Announcement was made yesterday
that the committee which represented
the first and refunding per cent
bends of the Rock Island during the
reccivership will be dissolved in the
near future.

AS the season advances it becomes
apparent the gain in business usual
at this time of the year is not yet
general or uniform. Rather less OF 1t
is seen in the East than at other
points. In some places none at all
appears, because, as is natural
enough, there is much uncertainty
over what TO expect in war times. AS
"Dun's Review" sees it,
business in various branches has
hesitated because the outlook has
been and still is more or less clouded,
and the tendency 70 act with caution
in anticipating forward wants grows in
many quarters. But while the present
policy of conservative purchasing,
and more largely for immediate and
certain needs, contrasts sharply with
last wears rush TO contract far ahead
1T almost any figure, and is disap-
pointing to some interests, 1t is one
which clearly makes for more whole
some conditions and more stable
nrooress. The inevitable reaction
from the extreme prices reached dur
ing the time of unprecedented de-
mands has already gone some dis
tance in certain of the chief materials
of industry, and the readjustments
have in some cases brought with
them signs of reviving activity,
though not a few buyers still hold oil
for further concessions by sellers.

Exemption From Draft
of Government Clerks
Is Not Thought Likely

Blanket exemption from the draft for
all male employees Of the government
In the conscriptable ages is not expect
ed by government officials nor en-
ployes, it was developed today. Despite
the recent statement by Secretary Red
field of the Commerce Department to
the effect that, in his opinion. it would
be best to exempt the employees. there
is nothing to show that such exemp-
tion will be made.
Officials generally believe that men in
the goverpment service will be as liable to
consoripton. perhaps. as any other
males within the prescribed ages resi-
dent in the city.
mendations for exemption will be put
up to the head of each department. he
in turn to get his recommendations
through advice from the heads Of the
various bureaus under him.
1t is not regarded likely that there
will be any wholesale exemption of gov
ernment employees, especially in cases
where 1t would be possible to fill the
position of the conscripted employe by
transferral of a female employe
1t is now regarded as highly prob
able that the government service will
bear it's share in the conscription of the
necessary quota from the District, by
those employees who claim residence
here.
At the request of the executive of1cer
of the registration board for the District,
Secretary Redield today designated the
following officials of the Department of
Commerce to act as special registrars
for the purpose of filling in and certify
ing to registration cards of employees
who are absent from their permanent
homes and will register by mail: Eu-
gene F. Hartley, census bureau: Henry
D. Hubbard, bureau of standards: Capt
p. A. Welker. coast and geodetic survey,
and I. H. Dunlap, bureau of fisheries.
The coast and geodetic survey has now
ben put under the military establish
ment of the United States in toto. but
the men who fall within the registration
age will register according to the law.
