VARIETY IN BELTS
Easy Matter for Home Sewer to
Give Extra Touch to Frock.
This Feature OF Summer Clothes May
Range From Single Chain OF Beads
to Wide Band Of Ribbon.

II Is difficult to say whether the
pocket or the belts give more charac-
ter to this seasons frocks. The truth
of the matter Is that they share equal
honors. The variety Of belts that are
in favor should make Il an easy mat
ter for the home sewer to add that
touch TO her frock which makes It diff
ferent from the next-door woman's
frock.
The single chain Of beads, which Is
considered smart and which sayors Of
things Grecian, can be easily affected.
As n rule, beads of one color are strung
on a cord of n different color, and the
two carry out the combination of col
ors used for the frock.
On coat suits one will find the use
of the Jade ring used to hold the belt
which has been shipped In two, while
on others n bone, leather or cloth
buckle will be used as suggested In
the sketch.
An unusual way to drape n cord or
ribbon around the waist is to double
1t and slip the two ends through the
loop which forms the other end.
Figured ribbon is employed very
often to finish or the waistline. 1t
may be of the polka-dot variety and
slipped through n colorful bone ring. or
1t may be dotted like the ribbon, which
is slipped through embroidered loops
and edged with fringe.
1t is not unusual to find n compost
tion belt, made of cord, beads, leather
AID n bone buckle.

FIRST OFFICIAL NEWS FROM RUSSIA
 E RECEIVED HERE
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON. Nov. 10.-First of ficial news of the Russian upheaval came to the government today from American Ambassador Francis but added nothing to the news despatches of the last three days and gave state department officials nothing on which to form judgments as to the course Of the United States.
 It was made plain that the United States can have no dealings with the maximalists, unless they attain the proportions of g. party in de facto con- trol of the country. The Russian em- bassy here, disclaiming that the Bol- sheviki represent Russia, announced, in a formal declaration, that it would not respect any actions the Lenine gov ernment might take.
 The immediate question before American officials is to what extent credits already extended to the Keren- sky government may be used for the | benefit of those who may oppose the allied cause in the war. Officials who would have charge of stopping ship ment of supplies to Russia were silent when asked to indicate their course. There seems to be no doubt, how ever, as that the vast quantities of ma terial being manufactured for Russian account in the United States will not be permitted to leave the country if 1t is apparent that they are going to fall into the hands of those disposed to 1 r17a lya to The hope of the United States and 1 Russian officials here turns to pos 1 sibility that the conservative element 1 of Russia, with the cossacks of the | Ukraine, will consolidate to set up a | government representative of all Rus sia, although civil war may be the re- suit.
 Meanwhile, it is believed that the German possession of Helsingofors and the Aland islands, making possible Teutonic occupation of Petrograd opens the way for a display of the req intentions of the Bolsheviki elemen- and it will show whether it's triumph has been the fruit of German intrigu, or whether it's spirit is truly Russian.
 PETRoGRAD, Thursday, Nov. B. David R. Francis. the American am bassador, who has been closely fol lowing the course of events here sine, the beginning of the overturn, said to- day that he had been trying vainly fo, two days to find a single member o the provisional government.

WILSON FORMALLY PUTS
 NEW SELECTIVE DRAFT
 MACHINERY INTO MOTION
lReuubIican A. p. Leased Wire]

WASHINGTON. Nov. 10.-President Wilson formally put the new machin- cry for the carrying out of the selec- tive draft bill into operation tonight with the publication of the foreWord he has written to the regulations under which the second call will be made The regulations themselves and the questionnaires which more than 9,oVo'- 900 registrants will be required to fill out are being forwarded to local boards, but have not yet been made public.
 War department officials estimate that the whole process can be com pletad within sixty days. This means that no second call will be made on the draft forces before the middle of next February as the period for classifica- tion will not begin until December 15. The president describes the new plan of dividing all registered men, already not mobilized, into five classes, subject to military service by classes, as being intended to produce "a more perfect organization of our man power"
 '"The selective principle must be car ried to it's logical conclusion" the president said, and he added that there must be made a complete inven- tory of the qualifications of each reg istrant in order to determine the place | in the military, industrial or agricul- | tural ranks of the nation in which his | experience and training can best be made to servo the common good"
 The inquiry projected in the ques- tionnaite will go deep into the qualifi- cations of each of nearly ten million men. The success of the plan and it's completion within the estimated time rests on the whole-hearted support given by the people, especially by the doctors and lawyers of each commun- ity and the president calls upon them for that unstinted aid.
 The presidents foreword follows:
 'The task of selecting and mobilizing the first contingent of the national ar my is nearing completion. The expedi- tion and accuracy of it's accomplish ment were a most gratifying demon stration of the efficiency of our demo cratic institutions. The swiftness witf

which the machinery for it's execution had to be assembled, however. left room for adjustment and improvement. New regulations putting these im- provements into effect are, therefore, being published today. There is no change in the essential. obligation of men subject to. selection. The first draft must stand unaffected by the provisions of the new regulations. They can be given no retroactive effect
 '-The time has come for a more perfect organization of our man pow CT. The selective principle must be carried to its logical conclusion. We must make a complete inventory of the qualifications of all registrants as to each man not already selected for duty with the colors, the place in the mili- tary, industrial or agricultural ranks of the nation in which his experience and training can best be made to serve the common good. This project involves an inquiry by the selectice boards into the domestic. industrial and edu- cational qualifications of nearly ten million men.
 Members of these boards have rem dered a conspicuous service. The work was done without regard to personal convenience and a pressure of imme- diate necessity which imposed great sacrifices. Yet the services of men trained by the experience of the first draft must of necessity be retained and the selection board must provide the directing mechanism for the new

FOOD ADMINISTRATION TAKES CHARGE OF MEATS
 WHAT IS ALREADY DONE

In referring yesterday to the recent conference in Chicago of MT. J. P. Cot ton, chief of the meat division of the United States food administration, with the advisory commission of five on beef production, Dwight B. Heard of this city, who was appointed by Mir. Hoover as a member of the commits sion, gave the following information:
 MT. J. P Cotton, recently placed in charge by MT. Hoover, of the meat di- vision of the United States food ad- ministration. has & tremendous, con- structive task ahead of him, especially when we realize that our estimated pro- duction of all meat products in 1916 was approximately 22,000 ,00O,o 900 pound. Since the beginning of the war our ex- ports of meat products have naturally increased immensely; our total exports of meat products from January 1st. 1917 to June 30th of this year amount ,, ing to nearly two billion pounds. The percentage of our exports of meat pro- ducts Is quite steadily increasing, par | ticularly hog products. The buying for the allies, our own army and navy, 1 the Red Cross, the Belgium Relief, and such supplies as allowed neutrals, is now in charge of the United States food administration, and in hog pro- ducts, amounts to over fifteen per cent of our entire production.
 Our export of beef products is now under similar control. although this class of exports constitutes much smaller percentage of our total produc- tion Of beef products than does that of hogs. With the above conditions con fronting us the need of thorough going regulation of the meat producing industry in America is very apparent

SH|PWORKERSMAY BE EXCUSED FROM
 DRAFT PROVISIONS
Republican A. p. Leased Wlre1


 WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-Plans to insure the retention of ship workers at the vital task of shipbuilding were an nounced today by Provost Marshal General Crowder, after conferences with officials of the navy department and the emergency fleet corporation. Regulations for the second call for the national army will provide a special qualified list for ship workers of mili- tary age and they will be excused from service in the national army as long as they are employed on government ship projects.
 Meyer Bloomfield. head of the indus trial service of the shipping board, said the war department had agreed also to return to shipbuilding plants any of their workers who have been drafted. Lists of these men will be made up by the yards for approval by the fleet corporation and as fast as their names are sent fin the men will be released.
 Under the provost marshal generals ruling men of military age idle through strikes, could be called to the colors immediately, but Mir. Bloomfield said the general feeling was that the right to strike should not be taken from the men.
 "The new selectire service regula- | tions will make ample provision to l protect and foster labor supply appur- i tenances to the building and filling of ships under the. supervision of the i emergency fleet corporation and of the navy department. Men thus engaged will be classified for military service precisely as though they were no So engaged but as long ss they remain employed in the building or filling of ships under the supervision of tie emergency fleet corporation Of the navy department they would be kept listed on a special classification list which removes them from liability to call as long as they are employed and no longer"
 The arrangement is included in the new draft classification plan, details of which will be made public next week. The regulations provide that a sweeping census of all registered men not yet called to military service shall be carried out. The physical an6
 
 occupational qualification of each mar will be written into the questionaire which also will carry a complete statement as to dependents.
 Every man must state the work or which he has been engaged during 2 period of years. Lists then can bs made up of the number of men trained to any occupation who are available for service. If the army has need O. a large number of men of. any partic ular trade, those in that trade will b, called upon for service without regar, to their draft status as to men il other trades, but il the new order O classification provided in the regula tions.
 They will be asked to volunteer. I ' enough do not come forward the draf will be invoked, the old master list o the draft lottery applying to the me, in their new trade classification, mod flied by the five class plan.

 Captain Kokeritz said that the submarine commander made no at tempt to communicate with them.
 We soon saw three submarines signalling to one another. It was dark then and when the shooting commenced the life boats had sep arated.
 "My boat, which contained 22 oc- cupants, came on without seeing any ships until 10 o'clock Wednesday morning, November ', when we were picked up by British patrol near Tory Island. The crew suffered terribly from cold and some of the men in the other boats died of ex- posure."
