Cutting off imports will end prosper

Holland, for instance, without
heavy imports of concentrated cattle
feeds, will be unable to maintain her
present great dairy herds. But half
her cattle would supply her own
necessary dairy products, and could
possibly be maintained without i'm

On this very point, the Dutch, in

DRAFT ON JUNE is
Names Will Be Drawn From
Wheel on That Date.
Local Officials VIII Pick the
First Big Army.

Washington, June 9.-With reports
on registration still coming in from the
various states, the war department has
turned its attention to the question of
exemptions. 1t was learned that the
following routine has been determined
upon:
frustrating will begin about
June 8. Names will be chosen by the
jury wheel system by local officials for
each 10000 of population.
Second-All men whose names are
drawn will be instructed to appear for
physical examination before an Off
cial medical board.
Third-If found physically fit, the
man will then be given an opportun-
ity, If desired, to present his claim for
exemption. If such claim is denied by
the board in the first instance, he will
have the privilege of appealing to the
board of review, one of which will be
established in each federal district.
Here decision will be final, aside from
a possible appeal to the president.
Draw 1,25O,OOO Names.
Provost Marshal General Crowder
declared he expects to secure $4,000
acceptable men out of the first 1885,
900 names drawn. This would be a
loss of only so per cent thru exemp-
ton for both physical and industrial
reasons.
Other officials-especially general
staff men-believe that only one out
of four can be secured at best. or
nearly 5000, 900 names will have to be
drawn to secure the quota of $685. 900.
While a general bringing in of
slackers continued all over the coun-
try, government and local officials
continuing their high speed activity.
further returns today from the regis
tration showed it still to be running
below the government estimates. 1t
is probable that the entire registration
will be at least 200, 900 under the CEN
suS figures.

Absolute Price Fixing Only as
a Last Resort.
Hoover Complies Brand New
Farm to Kitchen Plan.
CENTRAL BOARD SUPERWSES

Producer to Consumer.
Basic Prices to Former Elevator

RY RoRERT j. BENDER

washington, June 9.-Patriotism
will be made the basis of food con-
troll during the war-at the start.
Autocratic measures such as absolute
price fixing and requisition will not be
utilized except as a last resort.
From the farm to the kitchen, the
regulation of prices and supply will
be administered thru voluntary
agreement according to the plan OF
Herbert Hoover
"Slackers" or "skunks," as Hoover
terms those who might refuse to en-
ter the proposed agreement Will be
taken care of by powers to be auth
orized by congress.
Hoover proposes to have controll-
ing body in charge of each product
that will come under his department.
This body will be composed of repre-
sentatives of every link in the chain
from producer to consumer They
will work out a voluntary arrange
ment designed to conserve the looo
supply and greatly reduce prices.
There are certain to be a few OBJ.
iectors but seventy-five per cent OF
these to be called on will respond on
patriotic grounds, Hoover belleves'
Powers to requisition must be given
the government therefore to force the
other 25 per cent to follow the leaders.
Base Price on 1O-Year Average.
Here is the Hoover plan, worked out
with wheat as an example;
Reach an agreement on price Tor
wheat. say $3.50 bushel, based on a
ten-year average pre-war price, with
allowance for increased production
cost.
simultaneously determine a price
for every other cereal so as to pre-
vent substitution;
Call the elevator owners of the
country together and say to then
1.-THE farmers are willing to give you
wheat at $3.50. The government Will
arrange to loan you money necessary
TO pay the price and relieve you OF go
ing to the Chicago auction market to
protect Yourself"
Call the millers together and tell
them the elevators have wheat at
basic price to the farmer to which
they added a legitimate charge agreed
upon for storage, grading and the like,
and are now ready to sell it to the
miller at 2 price TO be stipulated.
2 The miller will then be urged to
mill straight flour ana to agree on
fixed charge for so doing so that the
consumer will get the flour at prac-
tically flat rate with some variation
for transportation.
Following $3.50 wheat thru this
course, Hoover says, would result in
flour to the consumer at $3.50 or 81
a barrel-about one-h9lf the present
price.
an other words" Hoover has de-
clared, here lies the protection # the
consumer, and at the 81 time pro-
lection and inducement to the farmer
and the elimination of speculation"
A similar course would be pursued
along the channels of produce devel-
opment IN other necessaries. Many
elevator men have already responded
to the idea and will be prepared to
start work along this line as. soon as
which will eliminate the possibility of

Says They Were Racing.
"a neighbor OF ours saw the two
cars racing south on the Rochester
road" said Leigh Carver. principal of
Rochester school. He ran to the top
of the hill to see who would win. The
Ford car was trying to pass the Buick
AS he arrived at the top of the HILL
he saw the Buick run into the soft
gravel at the side of the road, and
turn complete flip.
THE car landed on its wheels. 1t
had been speeding south. When it
hit the ground after vaulting into the
air it was facing northeast. 1t seemed
that the people in the Ford were joy
riders. My sister was riding along
the road when they passed her. The
car missed her horse by not more
than a foot, and the people in the car
laughed and considered it a good joke.
tt ey were going at top speed then.
That was before the smashup &C.
Cured"
The Rochester road, according to
Carver. has been a speedway for au-
tomobiles for several months. Per-
sons in buggies or on horseback do
not feel safe on the road, he asserted
The road is smooth and graveled, and
affords a tempting stretch for let

predicting an accident for some time
Denies Car Racing.
Mr.. Knapp said today that the Nc
Bride car had been running between
twenty-five and thirty miles an hour
before the driver noticed the joyriders
coming. Then, he said, Mcbride tried
to let the Ford car get by and was
crowded off the road. He denied that
his car was racing with the ioyrfders.

TOLD HER TO GO TO-
Reply of John Swisher Wnen Wife
Asked for Money She Says.

When she asked him for money he
told her to go to -, she says, but
instead, Mona Swisher is suing John
Swishr for a divorce. She filed a pc
tition in the district court today.
Mrs. Swisher says she and her hus-
band were married December 26, 1916,
and lived together only a short time.
She said he failed to provide for her
altho he was fbundantly able ana that
he was guilty of extreme cruelty. That
he came home drunk repeatedly soon
after their marriage and on one occa-
sion struck her with his fist is one of
her allegations.
Eventually, she says she became
sick because of his i'll treatment and
when she asked him for money he re-
fused to give it to her, cursed her and
told her to go to -. After all that,
she says, he deserted her and now she
knows not where he is. She asks for
a divorce. for the restoration of her
maiden name of Mona Eslinger and
the costs in the case.
