SEEK BETTER ORGANIZATION
State Defense Council Wants Stronger
Cooperation of Citizens to Aid
In Emergency War Work.

Madison-Plans are on foot to cal
upon Representatives of the County
Councils of Defense to appear before
the legislature during the special ses
sion and to discuss with the members
plans for better organization of the
state for war work.
The discussion will probably be over
the bill which is TO be presented by
the Milwaukee County Council of De-
Tense. and which, if 1t becomes law,
will give to the state council greater
powers of control over the work of
the county councils.
The idea is, however, to make the
whole system more effective by a
greater Capitalization of the work. Ii
is believed by the county councils
that there will have to be a strong
cooperation of citizens to give tie
necessary efficiency OF the state for
meeting the war emergency, and that
the county councils under the state
council will have to do a good deal of
work and perhaps be clothed with a
great deal of power to obtain the de-
sired results
The question OF farm labor will be
one of the most important questions
before the state the coming year
Farmers every Shere are now short
the necessary labor TO carry on their
farms and all of them are afraid that
they will not have anything like ade-
Quate help with which to harvest tseir
crops.

Madison-The action of the last SEES
sion of the legislature authorizing the

is to be used TO force the handling of
coal and wood in Wisconsin at rea.
solable price and with satisfactory
service
Complaints have been made to the
office of c. W. Croty, state marketing
agent for the Wisconsin Council of De-
Tense, regarding the price and quality
OF coal as sold in certain cities. The
matter has been taken up and investi-
cations will follow. Dealers are warn
en- that the price is now under super
vision of the government authorities
Agitation of cities to establish their
own fuel yards is also being inyesti-
gated. The state representatives do
not intend, however to have anything
to do with this movement, il is de.
clared unless it is found to be the
only way by which fair treatment to
the consumers may be obtained.
"If people were convinced that they
are only being charged reasonable
price for their coal and wood, that the
quality is the best and the service OF
delivery good" said Mr.. Croty,' the
agitation for municipal fuel yards
would not be strong. But If the prices
are maintained too high, the quality
poor and the service bad, people will
be inspired to put through the matter
of municipal fuel yards for their cit
