PROCLAMATION

To the citizens Of Chickasha:
May 9Th, 9TH and Sth has been SET
apart by the womens organizations
as time for considering the needs OF
the infants of the city. Their purpose
is to fix the attention Of the people OF
Chickasha and Grady county on the
proper care OF babies, particularly
during hot weather. 1t is hardly nee
essary for me to say that this program
seems to me a particularly fitting one
for the support Of the citizens of
Chickasha. Much has been accom-
plished within the last few years in
the saving and protecting of child life
throughout the country, and in the
present crisis we should exercise es-
pecial care in the bringing up OF the
fu-ure citizens Of our country.
Therefore I designate May 9Th, 7th
and Sth as especial baby days in
Chickasha and I ask that the citizens
give their support to this movement.

Washington, Aug. 8.-After many
weeks of debate and conference
the United States Senate will take
its final vote on the food control
bill at four o'clock this afternoon.
This greatest piece of legislation in
the history of the nation will 60 to
the President for his signature not
later than Friday. The House has
recessed and Speaker Clark can
not sign the bill until after it is
called into session again. Sena-
tor Chamberlain, leader of the ad-
ministration forces, declares that
there will not be twenty votes
against the bill. The passage of
it comes just six weeks later than
it was demanded by President Will
sen. He asked that it might be
passed before July 1st in order that
it's provisions might apply to the
early harvests.

Socialist Leader Taken to Milwaukee
in Charge of United States
Deputy Marshal.

Armed with a warrant charging him
with violation of Section of the Act
of Congress of June Is, 1917, a deputy
United States marshal came from Mil
waukee this afternoon and claimed the
custody of /. Y. Yingst, local Socialist
leader, who had been held at the county
jail The federal official appeared only
a few minutes before the hour set for
the hearing on writ of habeas corpus
which sought to release Yingst from
the jail. When the hearing on the
writ was called the sheriff informed the
court that he had a federal warrant for
the arrest of Yingst and the writ was
denied. Scores of men interested in
the work of he Socialists in Kenosha,
gathered at the court room this after
noon. 1t was stated that Yingst would
be taken to Milwaukee just after three
0 clock The federal grand jury is not
in session at this time and an effort
may be made to have the defendant
admitted to bond until the jury meets
in September.

ALIENS MAY JOIN NATIONAL
ARMY.

The ranks of the new national
army were opened formally on Mon
day to friendly aliens as volunteers.
A ruling by Provost Marshal Gen
eral Crowder communicated to the
local selection boards, directs that all
such aliens who waive their right to
exemption on nationality be prompt
ly accepted for service.
General Crowder sent this tele-
gram to the governors:
Reports reaching this office indi-
cate that in some quarters the belief
prevailed that friendly aliens who
have not declared their intention to
become citizens but are ready and
willing to serve, are disqualified from
entering the military service Of the
United States and must take out first
papers before they can be accept
ed. The quantities for voluntary en-
istment in time of war are no more
restricted for service in the new ma
tional army than for the regular
army. Such alien nondeclarants are
virtually volunteers.
stThe selective service act provid-
ed for their registration but it did
not regard them as being under any
liability to service, and it therefore
gave them full liberty to claim ex-
emption. Now that information re-
veals their willingness In large num-
bers to accept service in this war, it
should be fully understood that their
service is heartily welcomed and
they should be accepted whenever
they fail TO claim exemption.
The more of them that enter SER
vice the better, for in this way will
be removed the cause of dissatisfac-
ton heard in some quarters that, al
though the quota was based on total
