Coast, indicates that l,7OO were
disqualified and ordered home.
The large per cent of disquali-
fled men found in Our citizen
ship between the ages of twenty
one and thirty-one entail great
delay and expense in examina-
ton.
All of these things would be
avoided under the system of
universal training, so successfully
in use in other countries.
Every day that our military
machine expands we will be bet
te able under universal training
to take care of both Conscripts
and Eligibles. 1t is easy to pro.
vide both camps and instructors.
France has called out for in
struction her seventeen-year-old
boys. Let us hope that we will
never be compelled to call out
Our youth under twenty-one, but
we should begin to train our
youth from eighteen to twenty
one and to make them fit ply
sically and by discipline to come
quickly and effectively when
they are called.
The necessity is immediate.
The necessity is permanent. No
man can say how long this war
will last, or how soon it may
be succeeded by another war.
The first act of the Sixty.
fourth Congress should provide
for universal training y in the
schools, in the colleges, in the
camps.
The announcement. of defi-
mite, prompt, effective, universal
training law will be a positive
move for the discouragement of
our enemies and the Fastening
of peace.

The fact that all the wheat of the

not necessarily mean that the entire
amount will be brought to this city,
Mr.. Carey said. Because supplies of
grain are practically exhausted here

consideration will be given these mills,
but when sufficient supply has been
obtained the remainder will go to Du.

Ask Club Women to Aid
School Attendance Campaign

! A special appeal to club women in
the United States has been issued by
the United States Commissioner OF
Education, DR.. P. P. Claxton, urging
that the influence of the organizations
they represent be given to the main
tenance of the schools Of the nation
in their full efficiency during the pres
ent crisis. DR.. Claxton says:
Everywhere there seems to be
fear lest our schools of all kinds and
grades, and especially the public
schools, will suffer this year because
of conditions growing out of our en-
trance into the war. On the other
hand, both for the present defense and
for the future welfare Of our country,
as we'll as for the individual benefit of
the children, it is of the greatest i'm
portance that the schools shall be
maintained in their full efficiency,
both as to standards of work and at
, tendance of children
!, "While the war continues there will
be many unusual temptations to many
kind of juvenile delinquencies.
Prompt and regular attendance at
school and proper employment during
out-of-school hours will be the child
ren's surest protection against such
temptations.
when the boys and girls now OF
school age have reached manhood and
womanhood there will be need for a
higher standard of intelligence, skill,
and wisdom for the work of life and
for the duties and responsibilities of
citizenship than we have ever yet at
tanned. Our schools must now be so
sustained and improved as to enable
them better to prepare our boys and
girls for life and work in the new
age which will follow the close Of the
war and the coming of peace. No
boys and girls must now be neglected
or exploited for selfish ends.
I'm all this probably no others can
be quite so helpful as the club women
of the country, most of whom are also
mothers of children. For this reason
am taking the liberty of suggesting
to them that in all women's clubs this
should be made a subject of discussion
at their first meetings this fall and
from time to time throughout the
year. .. a....g.,.

War Hits American

Washington, Sept. 3.-War is reach

market, from Europe, and this supply

At the same time the munitfon fac

calling for women workers at wages
the average American family cannot

The maid famine is nation wide.

cago, she came into daily contact with
the raw material from which the svrv-
ant body Of America was fashio led.
She holds out little hope of relief
There has always been a shortage
tn domestic help in the United Statss,"
says Miss Abbot. "The woman with
small children, and not robust enough
to do much work, needs help in the
house. The English wo;lsn OF the
moderately well-to-do class has always
had two efficient servants Were her
American sister was glad to get one
unframed one.
CT course the rich will not suffer.
But the woman who wants Il maid of
all work to assist with small children
faces harder conditions every day.
Before the war German, Austrian.
Slav, Polish and Hungarian girls came
over every year and many went into
supply entirely.
;.# Pay is Increasing
"A few year ago in Chicago we
placed inexperienced immigrant girls
at "a per week. We have no difficulty
in getting Sc for the same unskilled
class today. The munitions plants offer
more money than the family can pay"
Miss Abbot does not look for much
relief after the war. Wages will re-
main high and the demand for workers
In countries, which have had large
part of their men killed or crippled,
will keep the workers at home or en-
able them to demand top wages in
America.
: The influx of negro families into the
north has not helped the north, but
has made the servant problem acute
in the south.
; The servant shortage is driving thou
sands of American families from de-
tachcd homes into apartment houses,
where there is less domestic work to
be done.
