also did not wish to discuss the merits

state that he regretted the situation
which had arisen, and he thought there
is undue concern in some localities.

Gen. Crowder said, 'but to distribute

Samuel Rogers, director of the cen.

war department officials, among them
Maj. Chiperfield of Illinois and Maj.
Warren Of Michigan, both of whom
have been engaged for some time with
the distribution of quotas, declared to-
night that he would gladly explain to
the senate just how the new census
estimate was computed. He also de-
clared that he did not see what could
be done that would result in a more
equitable distribution of the draft.

cities and sections and in some cases
the whole state, are far too high.
Gov. Lowden of Illinois and Gov.
Goodrich of Indiana have both dis
cussed the great increase in estimated
population. The increase for Chicago
since the former 1917 estimates is de-
clared to be away out of proportion.
Gov. Lowden, it was asserted tonight
at the provost marshal generals office,
had made no protest about the figures
but had called attention to the facts,
as he deemed it his duty to do, in
justice to the people and state of Illi-

Anxious to Cooperate.
The governor wishes to cooperate in
every way to hasten the organization
and mobilization of the new army and
to do nothing that would embarrass
the war department, it was said, but
felt that he could not let the census
figures go by without calling attention
to the enormous increases apparently
not justified by actual population.

Forty-three of the German divisions
on this front have not taken part in
the fighting. these comprising eigh-
teen landwehr divisions considered as
second line troops and twenty-five
other divisions.
Some of the German divisions have
had to be withdrawn after only two
days fighting on account Of their
losses, others after from four to six
days and still others only after fifteen
days or even a month.
During quiet periods, such as now, a
division may remain as long as six
or seven weeks in a front sector, with
out relief and 1t is known that at least
seven German divisions now engaged
have occupied their sectors of the
front line for this period.
