others went about the streets refusing

The scenes in these sheltered places
were similar to those of Monday night,

WILSON CONSIDERS PLAN
FOR EXEMPT|NG FARMERS
Delegation Assured He FavorS
Individual Exemptions
Whenever Necessary
ny RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-President
Wilson yesterday afternoon assured a
large delegation of farmers, senators
and representatives that he still is
seeking a feasible plan whereby II Will
be possible to permit individual agrl-
cultural exemptions from military serv-
ice without seriously interfering with
selective service law.
A delegation consisting of the heads
of many farmers organizations repre-
senting thirty states, accompanied py
many senators and congressman, called
on the president to discuss the ques-
ton of exemptions Among the con-
gressmen were Messrs. Adamson, Lee.
Brand. Howard. Overstreet and Park.
of Georgia. Charles s. Barrett, or
Georgia, also was present representing
the farmers union.
The heads of the farmers organiza-
tions made it clear that they are not
seeking exemptions for the farmers as
a class On the contrary they feel 1t
the patriotic duty of the farmers to
1oin the colors just as representatives
of other industries are doing. They
feel however that unless individual
exemptions are granted there is grave
probability that the farms will suffer
next year for the need Of attention.
This, in their judgment, will operate
to the injury of the nation, since 1T is
incumbent upon the farmers to supply
the armies in the field and the artisans
at home.
The extensions of time to farmers
until January l by the exemption
boards is well enough as a temporary
expedient, the delegation informed the
president, but what of next year, when
the time extensions expire and the
farmers are compelled to Join the col
ors? The president was urged to evolve
some plan that will enable the exemp-
tion boards to exercise discretion in
the matter of farm exemptions, so that
neither the agricultural interests nor
the army will be made to suffer.
