EYE ON DRAFT MEN
Kansas Problem of Gathering Stats
tics at CantOnments.

A new problem which has come up
since the establishment of training
camps at various parts of the country
is that connected with availability of
vital statistics concerning men located
at the environments.
This is a new problem which we
viii have to face said William J. v.
Deacon. state registrar. IF our rec
ords are to be complete we must have
statistics about our citizens who are at
training camps. If one of our citi-
zens dies in a hospital at Camp Fun
ston the record of the death is not
available to the state if the body is
buried on the reservation. If the
body is sent away for burial, however
the record is availa BILE because a per-
nit must be secured to send the body
away
'In many cases, however, burial is
made on the reservation and in such
cases military records are not avail
able to the state. We want to keep
track of all our citizens but we can
not do so unless we have access to the
military records of deaths occurring
at such environments and in which
burial is made at the reservation"
Mr.. Deacon said he would go to
Washington this week to take I'D the
matter and see if some reciprocal ar
rangement could not be made where
by state in which there is a canton
ment or national guard camp could
furnish vital statistics of the men at
the camp to the various states from
which they come

Employees of the mills, thousands of
whom already are out OF work, are
bitter toward the strikers. The 20
per cent wage increase granted 40, 600

corporation in this vicinity, became ef-
fective today.
The ultimatum by the railroad
heads followed the final breaking off
of negotiations with the unorganized
strikers yesterday.

men and the Switchmen's Union of
North America, of which many of the
strikers are members, is expected to

American Field Headquarters in
France, Oct. IAN aIl-American tele-

pIeted and in working order today.
American Sammies built every bit
of it-from the switchboards to the
stringing of the wires and the planting
of the poles. The system makes every
inch of the American headquarters
completely accessible-and extends
even further.
Today was notable also in the first
appearance of the Salvation army.
Their workers got actively on the job.

Using the disastrous Johnstown
flood of 1855 as an example, the form
er president drew a parallel of the
peril to the United States resulting
from it's unpreparedness. He said that
the owners of the South Fork dam
here, which broke, causing the flood,
had hesitated to strengthen it, just
as the leaders of this nation in the
period since the outbreak of the
European war and prior to our entry
had hesitated to strengthen the ma
TONS defenses.
THE owners of the dam said to
themselves that there had never been
a flood and probably as many in this
country said we We're not endangered
by the war in Europe. And then the
flood came with the awful death of
many persons, the destruction of
homes and the misery of families
Now what would you have thought of
people, who at the end of that time,
had said: Let's rebuild the dam as
it was There won't be another
flood
There won't be another flood!
Yet there are many who advocate re-
building our national defense after
the war as it was prior to the war.
