Complete plans for housing $4,000
men at each Of 80 divisional canton

is to be trained have been worked out
by War Department officials, aud con-

will be established in the Central De-

In effect the project is to build 80
! towns complete with all necessary
equipment and facilities. 1t will re-
quire 100000 feet of lumber, which
, was adopted because the price of
canvas is SO high and the supply so
short. If tents were used it would

keep the men under cover.
There will be 1900 buildings in
each encampment. These will include
quarters for officers and men, sta
bles, kitchens, mess halls, bath houses
and store rooms in addition to num-
erous structures for special purposes.

GUARANTEE PRICETO FARMERS

Price at Which Food Crops Shall

De SOl0
TO the Editor of The Robesonian:
Increase the food supply" This
is the urgent request of every one
who is in position to know how near
the border land of starvation the
world has approached. If we believe
political economists, the human race
is never in possession of food supplies
to last more than six months. If this
is true in prosperous times of peace,
We are forced to conclude that three
years of wars universal destruction
has reduced all surplus food stuffs
from six months supplies to bare
present necessities while the destruc-
ton continues at an ever-increasing
rate. The U-boats alone are destroy
ing more than one-third Of all sup
plies sent abroad, leaving only two
thirds of an insufficient supply to
reach consumers. The states of Eu-
rope are feeling the pangs of hunger;
hundreds Of millions Of people across
the seas are looking to the United
States to save them from starvation.
Will not the generous impulses OF
humanity move us to hear the Mace
DOMAIN cry to "come over and help
u.s.?
1t is my humble opinion that the
majority Of farmers believe the truth
of all these statements but they re-
main passive. There is cause: ell
oquent advice from whatever source
will not cause men to set aside knowl-
edge gained by the universal exper-
fence of life time. This is a truth
that all farmers know from exper
fence: large Southern crop Of any

Burke's 100000 Road Bond Issue I'm.
constitutional

The State Supreme court ppholds
Judge Frank Carter in his permanent
restraining order against the road
commissioners Of Burke county, for
bidding the issue of 100000 in road
bonds. The court holds that the fail
ure Of the House of the Legislature
to give an aye and nay vote on the
amendment renders it unconstitution-
al. The purpose Of the bill was to
create road system with the coun-
ty, rather than the township, as the
unit. In the amended act the 6 town
ships which were to have shared the
money were given the right to vote.
Here the trouble came in because this
vital provision in the act should have
been passed by aye and nay vote, and
it was omitted in the final concur
renee of the House in the Senate
amendment.

TO SUPPLY FARM LABOR
National Government is Perfecting
system for Supplying Country's
Farms With Labor This Summer

ms W1tn LABOR This Summer
organization of a national govern
ment system Of supplying labor for
the country's farms this summer
probably will be completed by the
agriculture and Labor Departments
within two weeks, and in a short
time thereafter the government ex-
poets to be enrolling hundreds of
thousands of men, women and bows
for farm work.
The plan outlined by W. J. SPILL
man, chief of the Agriculture De-
partment's office of farm manage
ment calls for the cooperation of all
State food organizations. In each
State the Governor will name a board
to direct the work, the boards to
name county agents and thew in turn,
community agents. Many governors
already have named BOARD from their
State food commissions.
Community agents will register
persons who can give a part Of their
time this summer to farm labor, and
will register also the ordinary sur
plus of farm labor. In addition, they
will ascertain their local farm labor
! needs and where possible will place
the labor in their own communities
The community agents will report
to county agents any surplus of la
Dor or labor needs, and county agents
will report in turn to State boards
Il labor surplus or shortage exists
in a State, the board will report tt
the Agriculture Department, and the
department will assist in attaining
the proper distribution. Railro: DIS
will aid by giving low transportation
rates to laborers.
"This SYSTEM" said Mr.. Spillman
"will make great difference in con
ditions that have existed in the past
Having the smaller take care Of thei1
own community needs and the larg,
bodies the larger needs, the Fedora
government will escape the vast
amount of routine the system other
i wise would entail. We are letting tn.
States name their own men and hav
ing them handle the problem them
selves where that can be done.
!. There probably will be later short
age in some districts, but we be
n lieve our system of adjustment will
mean that in most Of the country
labor will be more evenly divided AM
|. most concerns will attain all the la
! Dor needed"
lt Over 1850 posters will be sent ov
er the country soon calling person
, to enroll for farm labor. The depart
ments behind the plan believe cite
and villages can supply a great des
: of labor for short periods.

Baptist Women Denied Right to Serve
as Delegates

Women members of the Southern
Baptist churches were denied the
right for another year at least, to
serve as delegates to the annual
convention of the denomination by
the action of that body at New Or
leans Thursday. With less than 500
delegates in the hall, Robert H. Cole
man of Dallas, aroused those present
to keen interest by suddenly offering
for adoption proposed amendment
to the body's constitution, making
women eligible to the convention. The
convention finally adopted a motion
to refer the amendment to a commit
tee of five with instructions to report
on it at next years convention.

PETROGRAD, April 20.-German
preparations to attack the northern
front, supported by a German fleet
reports of which appear to be well
founded, bear out the war office
warning recently issued that the en-

The preparations consist of the mass

A portion of the German fleet is re-
ported to have moved from Kiel
to Libabu.

probable that the plan is to cut off
Petrograd from the active army
