FINAL RULES ON
HEMPT|ONPLEAS

On the eve Of one OF the biggest
military movements in the history Of
( the United States-the entralning Of
20 per cent OF the selected men for
training camps-Provost Marshal
General crewder today telegraphed
new Instructions to all governors COW
sring dependency. agricultural. ana
Industrial exemptions.
General crowder emphasized two
points:
1. That there Is no appeal to the
President except in claims for dis
charge based on engagement in agri-
culture or Industry.
2. That no evidence not submitted
TO district boards will be considered
By the President in acting on agricul-
tural or Industrial claims.
The provost marshal general rules,
however. that dependency claims de-
elined by district boards may be ap-
peaied to State governors.
IF local boards have made mis-
takes In individual cases resulting
in hardships," he said, there is an
appeal to the district board. Also
both local and district boards may
reopen cases in which they are in
error up to the time the claimant il
actually ordered into military serv-
ice. II the local or district board
Is in doubt, II may apply to the gov
ernor for information concerning the
meaning OF the law. An Individual
who believes a board has erroneouslY
Interpreted the law may call the at
tention Of the governor to the case.
When 1t Is clear that the board Is In
error, the governor may inform the
board Of the law and request II to re-
open the case"

RUSS OUTLOOK FINE,
SAYS EMBASSY HERE

The Russian embassy today Is more
optimistic than in several weeks over
the outlook in Russia. following re-
ports last night from Petrograd. An
nouncement that General Alexeiff was
rapidly whipping the Russian army
into lighting form and that complete
reorganization Of the forces Is under
way under his direction was made.
No great Importance is attached to
the recent Cossack revolt, the embas-
sy stating that 1t was confined to q
small faction In the organization.

WILL NAME PROVING
GROUND IN DECEMBER

Secretary Daniels stated today that
Congress probably would not be asked
before the December session for an
ordnance proving ground to take the
place of the proposed Kent Island
site, provision for which was killed in

Daniels said there are no other
sites under serious consideration.

By DR.. PHILANDER p. CLAYTON,
U. S. CommIxsIoner of Education.
An army of more than twenty mill
lion boys and girls enter the schools
and colleges OF the United States this
month.
Registration should not be less, but
rather more than last year.
There is a danger, however. that
there may be lowering both in the
efficiency Of the schools and IN the at
tendance, the latter especially in the
high schools and colleges. This
should be prevented as far as possible.
Very little can be added to the
country's preparedness by depriving
our youth Of the opportunities for
education.
Because of the partial disorgani-
zation OF society and the general ex-
citement accompanying our entrance
into the war, there is danger of a
large increase in juvenile delinquency
and crime.
School Il Preventative
Against this there is no surer guar
antee than prompt and regular at
tendance at school
Our soldiers will soon be fighting
in the trenches. and we shall be
spending billions of dollars for the
preservation of democracy, but this
will largely be in vain unless the
boys and girls in the schools are pre-

NAVY'S HEALTH BEST,
SAYS SURGEON GENERAL

The navy Is given practically a
clean bill of health In a report by
Surgeon General Braisted to Secre

Health conditions are good afloat
and ashore, the surgeon general re

few cases OF measles and mumps
Sanitary measures adopted at shore

paste to cover the not wanted hairs;
apply and in or 3 minutes rub off
and wash the skin. This method is
unfailing. harmless. and quick in re-

The efficiency division is only one
Of several bureaus in the War De-
partment which have Joined in the
movement to send smokes to Amer
lean soldiers "over there" through
out the duration Of the war.
II all the employees in the other
departments in Washington were as
liberal, patriotic and sympathetic as
the men and women in the War De-
partment divisions, there wou be
no doubt about q steady stream OF
golden tobacco flowing from the
United States to the trenches from
now until the war ends.
Lists Circulating.
The Times Is informed that sub
scription lists have been circulated in
a number OF other departments, and
are soon to be sent in. They should
be mailed or brought in at the earliest
possible moment, as the second con-
signment of smokes for the khaki
clad soldiers overseas Is going "over
there" In the very near future-the
pro-German need not know exactly
when-and everyone who failed to
send a packet of tobacco with the

DISTRICT TROOP
OFFICERS SMAY FACE
BOARD OF INQUIRY

ADMISSION, Ala, Sept. 1s.-ofhcers
Of the four District cavalry troops, in
camp here, face being brought before
q board Of inquiry to explain tele-
grams sent to Washington protesting
against the conversion of the squad
ron into field artillery.
That IL what happened to officers
Of the Richmond Blues, who lombard
cd members of Congress with tele-
grams, inducing. Senators Martin and
Swanson to lodge personal protests
with Secretary Of War Baker against
changing the organization of the
Blues.
Secretary Baker has asked COM
manding officers at the camp for all
information as to the status of the
District troops, the Richmond Blues,
and the Essex troops, OF New Jersey,
which II was proposed to form into an
artilllerey regiment
Ne Orders Received.
No orders have come as yet from
the War Department authorizing the
conversion of the District, Virginia,
and New Jersey cavalry troops to
field artillery.
The four District cavalry troops
were attached to the Fifty-fourth
Artillery Brigade when they arrived
In camp last Sunday, not made a part
OF 1t General Rafferty, issued a YER
bal order that the troops be trained
as artillery. and they have been doing
battery drills since then. 1t is under
stood now that General Rafferty, has
not the authority to change the four
troops into artillery, and that his or
der has not been confirmed by the
War Department. The status of the
four troops is mystery therefore.
The officers and men of the four
District troops, in most cases are bit
terly disappointed that conscripted
men could select the branch of serv-
i've they preferred, and that they who
volunteered at the very declaration of
war were transformed into a branch
that did not appeal to them, poured
scores Of kilograms to their friends
in Washington the past week, many
OF them going from personal friends
OF the President himself
The four New Jersey troops, includ-
ing the two Essex troops, felt the
same way, and the entire New Jersey
delegation in Congress went to the
War Department to protest the order.
Omeers QuestIoned.
The arrival OF the Thursday Times
in camp with the story OF the protests
to the President was simultaneous
with inquiries from the War Depart
ment as to who had ordered the three
sQuadrons changed into artillery, and
things commenced to buzz around
brigade headquarters.
The officers Of the Richmond Blues
were summoned and closely ques-
TONED, and the officers of the other
two sQuadrons will probably be sum-
moned today, as the protests were
highly improper from the viewpoint
Of the brigade commanders.

RED STAR EXHIBIT
 AT THE STATE FAIR

According to the recent reports re- ceived by the officials of the govern ment over 80 per cent of the ami mals being treated at the horse hos pitals in France are cured. When it is considered that the allies spent $1,377, POP for their horses for the month of July alone it is easy to un- derstand why they are willing to ex- pend thousands of dollars to assist ir keeping these animals in proper con- dition.
 The United States has approxim- ately P million horses now with only five per cent available for govern mental use. Unless horseflesh is con served there will not be enough ami mals to help win the war, and with out the animals the war cannot be won. The field artillery, the heavy guns. the transporting of ammunition from the motor trucks across the shell-riven and crater-i infested battle fields can be done only with horses and Captain Ral Parr said recently:
 When the spring brings it's great advance and the Teutons are being driven back, and farther back. unless we have horses to advance with, un- less we have horses to carry our sup plies and swing our guns we cannot win
 It would take fifty large ships for full month carrying nothing but horses and horse supplies to replace the average months loss of horse flesh on the battle lines where 47Ogo animals per month meet death from shot and shrapnel wounds.
