SHERIFF WHEELER
 OFFERS SERVICES TO
 THE CANADIAN ARMY

According to advices received here yesterday from Tombstone. Sheriff Harry Wheeler has again been disap. pointed in his endeavors to enter the army of the United States. He made an effort to enlist as a private in the regiment in which his brother is serv- ing, but received word from the com manding officer that the age limit of 40 years would not allow him to enlist as a private. Sheriff Wheeler was deprived of going to the last training camp by the trouble in this district, and thereby lost his last chance to get into an officers training camp. He thought that he would be able to get in as a private. but because he had passed the age limit of 40 years his hopes were again dismayed.
 He is still persistent to get into the active warfare and has now made an application to the Canadian govern ment to enter the service of that country if he is not compelled to give up his citizenship. If he is successful in this offer he will be joined by a number of other prominent citizens of the Warren district who are also above the age limit and who are de- sirous of getting into the trenches in France They hope to hear within the next few weeks in regard to the en- listment in the Canadian army.

SUBMARINE LOSS SHRINKING FAST
 BRITISH REPORT

LONDON, Nov. 2l.-Seventeen Brit ish merchantmen were suk by mines or submarines last week. according to the weekly statement issued by the British admiralty. Of these ten were vessels of 160O tons and over, and seven of less than 1900 tons.
 Last weeks record of British mer- chantmen sunk greatly exceeds that of the previous week. when only one vessel of 1900 tons or over and five craft of less tonnage were sent to the bottom. It represents i'll the aggregate the greatest number of vessels de- stroyed since the week of October 2S, when eighteen were lost Since then there has been a gradual falling of in shipping losses until the minimum since Germany's intensified campaign began was reached November II, with total of six.
 The report apparently bears out the optimistic statement made recently by Premier Lloyd-George that he had no further fear of submarines, and of the first lord of the admiralty that enemy submarines were being sunk to an in creasing extent, for the sinkings in the 1600 and over category last week were the lowest since March. except for the weeks of September l6.

AZ. O.L. CONDEMNS
 AUTOCRATIC POLICY
 OF POSTOFFICE HEAD

1 BUFFALO, N. Y.. Nov. 21.-The con vention of the American Federation of Labor today adopted resolution con- demning Postmaster General Burleson for his "autocratic policy toward pos tai employees" and instructed the eX- ecutive council of the federation to obtain an audience with President Will son and place before him facts con corning the oppressive labor policy Of the postmaster general"
 The resolution was introduced by Thomas E. Flaherty, of the National Federation of Postal Employees and | Edward J. Gainor, of the National As sociation of Letter Carriers. Approx imately a quarter of million workers in the postal service, the resolution said, are forced to accept without pro- test the unsatisfactory working con ditions imposed by an autocrat."
 The whole tencency of the day, Flah- erty said, was toward government con trol in many branches of industry and public utilities and we should begin now to democratize government ser vice"
 Some delegates seem to think that government control solves all their problems" Flaherty added. As a mat ter of fact, the government can be as harsh and unreasonable as any employ CT. Postmaster General Burleson has invaded every right we have fought for in the last quarter of century"
 Vice President Duncan protested against the adoption of the resolution without hearing the other side.
 We are asked to conCemn the post master general and then proceed to try him." he said. "The committee proposes to proceed in the way that will bring the best results
 Gainor was against further delay. Government ownership, he said, may bring the most tyrannical system yet devised So far as labor is concerned. Men had been dismissed from the pos tai service for organization activities, he declared, and he was compelled to resign from the federal service to at tend the convention.
 It was the second defeat of the day of reports from the resolutions com mittee's fayorable action on a resolu- tion recommending to all affiliated or ganizations that citizenship or a dec laration of intention to become a citi- zen be made requisite to union mem berShiD The oppoSition came prin- cipally from organizations which dele gates said need to embrace aliens to keep up their fighting strength.
 At the next session there was an other long and at times acrimonious debate on a resolution favoring tre conscription of citizens of allied na tions now living in the United States.
 Thomas Black. Canadian delegate, brought a storm upon his head by re ferring to all conscription laws as ''das- tardly." remark which resulted in a demand for retracion from several del egates.
 President Gompers temporarily re- lin1uished the chair to reply to Black. and Delegate Carr, of Toronto. decla;- ed that Blacks remark did not reflect the sentiment of unioR labor in Cana da. The demand for a retraction from Black was not put in the form of a resolu ion and nothing further was said about it after the adoption of the conscription resolution.
