that sufficient tonnage will be available

Secretary Baker then outlined the

scripted forces, to France as soon a.
il is trained and transportation IL
available, adding that no political con-
siderations dictated the plan to train

that every step taken for organization

been prompted solely by the desire to
further the prosecution Of the war"
Senator Weeks told the senate that
he did not consider tho explanation
adequate, particularly as the northern
states have camps Of their own which
could be used without additional ex-
pense to the government, and then, II
necessary, the troops could be sent
south later.

Erected-st. Louis Company Gets
Contract.
IBy E. G. Dougherty.]

Special to Times Republican.
Washington, July 21.-The Deming,
N. NJ. camp for the Iowa, Nebraska,
Minnesota and Dakotas troops will
be put into shape as quickly as a large
force of contractors and builders can
direct the buildings, and indications
now point to the camp being ready for
the reception Of the troops by Aug. 1.
The contract for the hundreds OF
buildings was let by the war depart
ment. Thursday, to J. w. Thompson
Company, Of st. Louis. and instructions
were given the builders to expedite the
construction Of the camp.
The fact that Deming was the camp
of many Of the guardsmen from the
states called to the border during the
Mexican disturbances last year Is
pointed to by army engineers when es-
timating that the Deming camp will
be put in shape much quicker than
other CAMPS in the south. Water al
ready is piped to the camp, and some
of the buildings remain intact. At the
present time, in fact, a portion of the
New Mexico guard is encamped at
Deming.
New Mess Halls and Kitchens.
The greatest building task will be
the mess halls and the kitchens. The
hospital, of which only a portion VIII
be under lumber. will be erected in jig
time. The medical corps of the army
has been giving particular attention to
proper facilities for caring for the
physical welfare of the national
guardsmen. The fact that many of the
state troops are men who are raw
and not accustomed to the torrid at
mosphere Of the south is believed by
the medical department to call for
special care in a hospital way.
Company streets also are laid on at
Deming. and practically all of the
ground has been cleared of sequite
will be no "grubbng" to be done by
the Iowa guardsmen.
Urge Training Of Mechanics.
Iowa trade schools, manual training
divisions of high schools and technical
divisions of the Hawkeye colleges and
universities are appealed to today in
q statement by the bureau OF educa-
ton urging the training of skilled me-
chanics and high-g grade helpers to
meet the demand that will be made In
industries during the war and after
the conflict. The campaign to turn
out more graduates of shop work de-
partments of the technical schools Is
in the line of the government TO estab-
lish what is termed the second line
OF industrial defense"
II is known that a great number OF
skilled workmen. fired by an ambition
to get in the fight abroad and stirred
by depths Of patriotism to do their bit
will not claim exemption under the
draft regulations. The places OF these
men must be filed If the industrial
life Of the nation is not to suffer. The
bureau of education asks every school
to conduct summer courses in tech
meal instruction and to discourage
students who gain a smattering or
technical knowledge from entering
shops until their knowledge OF the
trade they are learning Is mastered.

result that the latter market has been
the leader in strength as well as activ-
ity. New York reported no important
export demand for either corn or
oats. However. no further offers to re-
sell by Scandinavian interests were in
evidence. Cash premiums for both oats
and corn were maintained. At the ad-
vance there was considerable profit

Oats prices have enjoyed a Scent
upturn in the past few days and some

Mon to Go to Fighting Front Whom Fit
For Combat

Washington, July 21-The first Of
fetal announcement of the administra-
tons plans for sending expeditionary
forces from the three American armies
to France was made by Secretary Of
War Baker today.
THE present plans Of the war de-
partment are so framed" Secretary
Baker said, las to provide for the train
ing of each portion Of the army as soon
as equipment can be furnished, and to
dispatch each portion of the army 70
France as soon as it Is trained and
equipped and tonnage becomes avail
able
Means Sending All Troops.
Only one construction could be plao-
ed on this-that the administration
plans to send to France the entire ma
tional army Of 100000 drawn by con-
scriptiou, the full national guard OF
l5s. 600 as filled to war strength by Fri
rays draft, and the full regular army
of 100000, combined force Of 1.1b3,o0o
to reinforce the thousands now training
back of the line in France.
Secretary Baker officially announced
the administrations war plans in . let
ter to tho New England senators who
asked the war department why the ma
tional guard troops Of the northern
states were sent to training camps in
the south.
National Guard First.
1T 10 intended" Secretary Baker
said in this letter, 80 send the national
guard units or, such thereof az are
properly equipped and trained to join
the American expeditionary force IN
France before the national army can
be sent.
.'Plans for the dispatch Of our forces
to France depend not only upon their
training and equipment but also upon
the availability Of sufficient tonnage
for transportation. Had It been posi-
BILE to assure before winter transpor-
tation to France for the national guard
Of all the states In the north It Is quite
possible that my advisers would have
recommended that the national guard
be placed In environments In the north
Reason For Southern Camps.
The fact that transportation sof the
entire force could not be assured before
winter led to a decision to have all the
guard camps in the south, the secretary
explained. He added:
you correctly assume that 1t II
hoped to send the national guard to
kFrance within reasonable time, but
| It'll manifestly impracticable, with the
limited tonnage available. to transport
all the national guard Of the northern

Washington. July 21.-After having
been under consideration for five
weeks, the administration food con-
troll bill was taken up under an agree
ment for final vote in the senate to-
day. 1t may be late tonight before the
measure is finally disposed Of.
Pending, when the senate met. were
only two important amendments, one
providing for fixing minimum price
for wheat and the other to authorize
the federal trade commission to fix
coal prices and take over coal mines.
Today's debate began, on the biparti-
san leaders compromise substitute for
the wheat price fixing section. Senator
Chamberlain sponsored a substitute
authorizing the food board to estab-
lish minimum guaranteed price OF not
less than 81 per bushel based on No.
/ northern at the primary market, UNI
til jan l, 1918 Senator Gronna offered
a provision for mandatory action fixing
the price at not less than 81. Senator
Curtis proposed an amendment extend
ing the guarantee price to be equiya-
lent OIL NO. Hoithei ~ 1"hee'@. AAo S.A
that No hard wheat of Kansas, Ne
braska and Oklahoma is in the mar
ket equivalent of the northern stand
ard.
The Curtis amendment was adopted
without q record vote. Senator Sher-
man spoke against the whole bill.
The whole bill is bound to be a
disappointment" he said, "and 1 am
going to vote against it."
!, Senator Shafroth declared the farm
ers would receive great benefit from
the bill. but that he thought the con-
sumers should also be taken into con-
sideration in enacting the pending
legislation.
