be maintained to the end. Any con- siderable diminution of man power must interfere to some extent with in- dustry. The diminution must be made, and hence it is self-evident that the problem is not absolutely to pre- vent interference with industry for that is impossible; it is to reduce in- terference to a minimum. A balance must be struck and maintained be- tween the military and industrial needs of the nation, and the necessary
 sacrifice must be distributed with scientific accuracy aqd in such way as to accomplish both purposes of the nation. {.

RUSSIANS PREPARING

Berlin, Aug. 6, via London-Strong Briish attacks were made yesterday against the German positions between the Ypres- -Menin road and the River Lys, on the Belgian front, says the official statement issued today by the German general staff. All the at atcks were repulsed.
 The Russians are preparing to give battle to the Austro- German forces advancing on the Russian front be- tween the Dniester and the Pruth, ac- cording to today's army headquarters announcement. The Roumanian from tier, southwest of Czernowitz, also is the scene of the Russian resistance.

AUTO LICENSES DOUBLE

Little Rock, Aug 6.-The number of state automobile licenses issued in Arkansas has virtually doubled each year since 1914, according to records in the office of w. B. Owen, state highway commissioner. So far this year 25,S00 licenses have been issued, and an additional 2,O00 order, Mr. Owen believes, will be insufficient for the remainderbdf the year.
 In 1914 there were 6,642 licenses issued. In 1915 the number jumped to S,021, and last year to 14,423.

UNANIMOUSLY ENDORSE
 COMPULSORY VACCINATION

Little Rock, Aug. 7At a meeting of the State Council for Defense yester- day, resolution was adopted unani- mously endorsing the compulsory vac cination order recently made by Dr. C. w. Garrison, State health officer. It was also provided that a request shall be made of the county councils to assist in the enforcement of the order as war measure, since small poX and other contagious diseases must be kept down to an absolute minimum. In some portions of the state there is a detrmined opposition to the vaccination order, but Dr. Gar rison hopes that this well be largely overcome when the imperative need of the order is understood by the people.

Washington, Aug. 6.-Resumption If Senate debate today on the con- ference report of the administration food control bill was marked by bitter ovchanges between those advocating and those opposing the legislation. After days discussion of the bill as finally drafted by the conferees, administration leaders and some of tbe chief opponents said it would be disposed of Wednesday,
 Senator Chamberlain, the adminis- tration manager, and Senator Gore. who has been prominent in the oppo- sition, clashed sharply during the de- hate after Senator Reed had made another speech of more than three hours. attacking the measure and Herbert (. Hoover. When Senator Gore imputed that the Senate con- ferees had yielded the Senate's judg- ment to that of the president, Sena- tor Chamberlain in a vehement speech edeclared that the Oklahoma senator had consistently obstructed the food bill and also other administration measures.

EXEMPTION BOARDS
 WILL BE STRICT
Policy of Exemptions Boards Will be to Get an Army Penalties For False State ments to be Enforced.

Little Rock, Aug. Tt will be the policy of the District Exemption Boards to get an army, rather than to be easy in the granting of exemp- tions. In fact, all claims for exemp- tlon are to be most rigidly examined, and they will not be granted except in cases where there can be no question of the justice of the claim.
 Members of the two Boards met yesterday at the capitol to confer on the policies to be pursued, so that there may be unanimity of action. The Boards are constituted as follows
 Eastern District-W. J. Lamb, of Osceola, chairman; Mayor Chas. E. Taylor, Little Rock, secretary; R. w. Merriweather, Paragould; Estes Hale Little Rock; Dr. R. L. Smith. Russell vile.
 Western District-Allen Winham, Texarkana, chairman; Ira D. Oglesby, Jr., Fort Smith, secretary; Willard Pendergrass, Altus; Dr. C. H. Car gile, Bentonville; Henry Yocum, FL dorado.
 Gen. Lloyd England, who is to be brgadier general of the Arkansas troops, appeared before the point meeting. and urged that every legiti- mate effort be put forth to secure the army. He called attention to the fact i that whenever any mothers son is exempted, some other mothers son must be taken in his place. The gov ernment is making plans to protect it's interests, by requesting the gov ernors to appoint some one in each county to act as its representative in opposing the appeals and exemption claims; investigators will also be ap- pointed to investigate the affidavits. Appeals from the local to the Dis trict Boards will be by affidavits only, and no one will appear before the Board, in person or by attorney
 It is announced that penalties are to be strictly enforced. The law pre- scrbes that any person who shall make or be a party to making any false statement or certificate as to fitness or liability of himself or any other person, or shall fail or neglect to perform any duty required of him, shall. if not subject to military law, be punished for Imprisonment for mot more than one year, or, if subject to military law, shall be subject to trial by court martial.
 Any person or persons convicted ot conspiracy in violating the selective draft law. shall be fined not more than S1OOOO, or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.
 Conviction of making a false oath or declaration contrary to law shall be fined not more than $2,OOO and inn prisoned not more than five years for perjury
 To the district boards is entrusted the solution of one of the most vital nroblems of war. Two things are'to be accomplished-to raise armies and to maintain industries As the war proceeds more and more men will be required for the battle line, and yet there are certain industries that must

HERO WORSHIP.

am very much opposed to that form Of idolatry known as hero worship. Not that l don't think men and women of worth should he highly thought of and their work widely advertised. But there is very common teadency in the average person that makes use of such opportunities to indulge .tsef, I refer to that enemy of the people -ment2. laziness.
 Give the average person. some public man, whose ideas strike him right and he will thereIpon cease eyer again attempting 70 use his own little think bottle except d. q respectable for his hero's ideas. The average person will swallow without masuCa::on every idea his hero pro ponnGs, and as a re ut Of this pro cess of thought We have a race of mental dispeptics.

 First. only the record oi what the biz men did is written in our his jor.. egoud, the great man are great orly because of the tendency noted above, that the average mI" cliles to the &ctiye mind and makes it great by his wor ship and his mental stagnation.

 This is z tendency that must bC checked by proper realization o the fact that the hero is danger ous person who is liable to play you false at any time as t"e price of his own agrandizement. It mus be checked because of the stagnan influence it has on the mind of th' wCrShip"r.

 well on paper. But, unfortunately fo1 the working-class. they are very likely to remain mere distractions so long as the workers refuse to de ve}op the pure and simple material power with which to take and le- tain them. Only might, used in the right direction and without stint can make them vital and dynamic factor iE the lives of the workers.
