ILLINOIS MAKES RECORD
IN RECRUITING FOR ARMY
Furnishes 2,427 Men for the Regular
Force Since April /; Pennsyl-
vania Is Next.

Illinois holds all records for regular
army recruiting, according to figures is
sued yesterday at the War Department.
showing the progress made since April
|. and particularly since April Is, when
the war emergency began to affect the
recruiting depots. OF the total Of 25.-
S42 men accepted for the army since
April i, Illinois furnished 2.427 against
1884 for Pennsylvania, 2.126 for New
York and 2.124 for Indiana.
Illinois again yesterday led the daily
record with $50 men for April 20. against
1875 for New York.
The figures show a steady decline in
the number of men applying for en-
listment, however. despite the fact that
those now enlisted are taken in for the
war emergency only and are really vol
unteers who will serve with the regu-
lars for that period. total of only
1889 was reported from all recruit de-
pots for April 20. previous days since
April Is having passed the 1000 mark

special Dispatch to The Star.
PORTSMOUTH. Va, April 21.-Distri-
button of the enormous truck products
of the Virginia coastal region will be-
come an acute problem if the govern
ment commanders the coastwise ships
plying between Norfolk. New York and
Boston. Representatives of 500 truck
ers hereapouts state that in response
to the appeal of the government for the
planting of additional food crops. they
have put in huge acreage of potatoes
and perishable products, furnishing
cheap food. This will be not only a
dead loss to the farmers, but the lack
of 1t will affect seriously the food sup
ply in the great centers of population
in the east if the existing transporta-
ton facilities are interrupted by the
withdrawal of the fast express steam
ships now transporting this food.
The response of the Virginia truck
ers to the governments appeal has been
instant and enthusiastic. despite the
fact that the huge crops put in may ma
terially lower the cash returns to the
growers. Transportation of highly per-
lshable crops, which must be iced in
transit and delivered in quick time. is
the al1-important factor in the food
problem, SO far as it concerns truck
products. Should the steamers be trans
ferred to the government service after
the season is over. the hardship would
be less, but to take them before the
middle of July of August would be to
curtail the food supply of the eastern
centers and render futile the efforts of
the farmers to meet the situation.
The truckers organization refuses to
take any official action in opposition to
the proposal to commander the steam
ships, not wishing to embarrass the
government in the crisis. but it is real
lied that unless the transportation IA
cilities are adequate, it may be that a
FOOD crisis in those centers depending
upon Virginia truck may be created

to submit the resolution to conven-
lions composed OF members elected by
the people of the various states, and
then when that was defeated voted
against the resolution. Mr.. Montague
voted against the Mann amendment,
and against the resolution itself.
Since that time, however, Mr.. Car
lin, as chairman of the subcommit-
tee of the judiciary, has written re-
port strongly recommending the pas
sage of the resolution by the house
Of representatives and has supported
other prohibition legislation. Mr..
Montague, however. has not given any
public indication OF what position he
will take.

the food bill was proposed last sum

Der of the Virginia delegation who was
counted by the tellers as voting
against the Barkley amendment, His
attitude. therefore. on prohibition leg
islation is not considered to be as IA
vorable as that of the other members
OF the Virginia delegation. But. as
stated above, It is only reasonable 70
expect that Virginia should vote solid
Nv in favor of the resolution. The
Virginia, Holston and Baltimore Meth
odist conferences. representing all the
Meth odists of Virginia. have petitioned
the Virginia congressman TO vote for
the resolution. The Baptist General
association has called for favorable
action. Other religious bodies have
urged its adoption.
The readers OF this paper are urged
to communicate at once with their
congressman. but especially should
letters be sent TO Hon. A. J. Montague,
House building, Washington. D. G.,
urging him to Join with his fellow
con gressmen from Virginia TO support
the resolution. Mr.. Montague is a
representative of the people OF Vir-
ginla and Will be glad to hear what
action they wish him to take at this
time. 1t Is possible that his vote may
settle the question. DO not delay,
Write promptly. as the vote on the
resolution may be taken next week

FIRST RICHMOND
COLLEGE MAN AT FRONT

An interesting letter was received
recently by DR.. Montgomery. profess
sor OF Latin. at Richmond college. The
ep.stie was sent by w. Earl White. a
graduate of the class OF 1917. given
hts degree OF bachelor OF arts last
June
White was the first Richmond COL
Iege man to put foot on European
soil to fight since the war began with
Germany. He enlisted shortly after
graduation in the marine corps and
was rapidly trained and sent to
France.
In this letter the Richmond college
man tells many of his impressions of
conditions. He tells of a meeting with
one OF his old friends at Richmond
college One day he was tnQuiring
the way of an auto driver only to
find that his informer was Biscoe, a
graduate of the class OF 1914 at Rich
mond and OF University Of Virginia
last year He says that the French
are very polite and often become Of
Tended II one refuses to drink with
them. White likes the Highlanders
and Canadians better than any otnerS
he has met. He adds that the French
soldiers, though dirty and untidy. are
among the best az nghting men. In
closing he states that he would like
| to tell many more things but the CEN
sor would object

The Highlanders.

{Minna Irving, in the New York
Ttmes,)
Above thu rolling, drums ia heard
the tune OF Benny Doom,
And Annie Laurie Keeps her tryst
Beneath the misty moon.
The Flowers OF the Forest fall.
And rocky road and glen
Are ringing to the tramping feet
or Cameron's marching men.
The Campbells. they are coming, too,
BY gloomy lochs and braes,
And Alton Water gently flows
Through Summers golden haze,
The melancholy pibrochs call
The scattered clans again
From miles of heather wild and wet
And sheep-folds gray with rain.
For 10! the pipes are all awake
And playing as Of yore
They played before the Highland
chiefs
On Scotia's ancient shore
The fash of tartan plaid IS seen
Along the front In France
Wherever hearts beat high and strong,
And dauntless troops advance.
