What makes Strauss kicking all
the more valuable Is the fact that
he is a dropkicker and not one
who must have the ball poised for
him by another one Of the rea-.
sons why fewer attempts are made
at field goals is the danger of hav-
ing the kick blocker and the ball &.

no one to prevent him going for n
touchdown. This frequently hap

DEFENSE COUNCIL
 ADOPTS NEW PLAN
Advocates War Bureaus Like the
 One in New Britain

To New Britain and its special War Bureau committee belongs the credit for establishing the first organization of this kind in the state and also evolving a scheme which has been taken over almost in its entirety and advocated by the State Council of De- fense. Frank H. Afford of the War Bureau committee. as soon as the 7, members had settled upon a definite plan to follow, notified the State Council of Defense of it's intention and today he received circular let ter from the council in which this same plan is recommended, with few changes, for the entire state. In part, the outline as suggested by the local men and adopted by the State Council of Defense, is as follows
 Establishment of a war bureau with one permanent official, empoW- cred and designed to supervise all ac- tivities arising from the existence of a state of war.
 Each War Bureau should be closely allied to the town or city government and should be provided by that gov ernment with the necessary funds.
 Similarly, each War Bureau should be allied with the State Council of Defense, to act as the local representa- tive of that council and replacing the present town committees.
 The executive committee of each War Bureau should include a repre- sentative of the city government, the chamber of commerce, the Red Cross and the town committee of the State Council of Defense, as well as any other organizations engaged in war or public service work.
 Sub committees should be named 10 devote considerable time to special work. The finance committee should supervise the collection of funds for all purposes connected with the war with the exception of the Red Cross, Y. M. c. A., etc. No person should be permitted to collect any money ex- ,ept with license from the War Blu reau. It should also be the duty of the finance committee to takc over and administer as far as possible all specific community funds. such as to- bacco and athletic funds. The relief committee should do that work which its name implies in order to make il possible to offer free medical, lega and other aid when necessary to the families and dependents of soldiers Ii should likewise have charge of pro- yiding the soldiers abroad with any and all necessities or possible luxuries not provided by the government. The committee on information and re- search should compile an accurate

In short, it should be the bureau of information as to all mat ters having to do with the soldiers and sailors at home and abroad.

REINDEER. QUEEN.
Reference to Work on Property Last
Week Was Erroneous.

The story published in the last is
sue of The Miner regarding strike
of lead ore in the Reindeer Queen and
work going on at the property, while
given to this paper for publication In
good faith by one who is often the
source of mining news, proved to be
incorrect in every particular, and 1t Is
evident that our informant was i'm
posed upon by one who had drifted
into that delightful though unreliable
state of mind commonly described as
pipe dream. The fact Is that moth
ing has been done toward-a resump-
ton of work at the Reindeer Queen
since the snowslide a few months ago
killed the manager Of the property
and. wrecked the compressor. 1t Is
impossible to do anything toward re-
pairing the compressor and otherwise
getting the property in shape for a
resumption on account of the snow,
but work will be started as soon as
conditions will permit. This is the
substance Of a statement from DR..
Bean, of Mullan, secretary Of the COM
pany, who called to correct the an
nouncement made in The Miner.

Gus ore in varying amount for 800
