League for the purpose of preventing
the loss of investment in breweries
by prohibition was announced here.
The organization, it was said. Is not
opposing. prohibition, but is seeking
compensation. 1t will send legislative
represen satives to Washington and
to nearly every state capital in the
country.
There Is 81, 800, o0o, 900 invested
in brewery securities said the an
nouncement, "and these are held BY
60, 900 investors. With whisky out
of the market, the saloons would
have to close, for they cannot make
a profit on beer. This would knock
out the breweries and their securi
ties would become valueless.'

Warrington. d. C.-The battle over
the food administration bill. which
snlivened the senate proceedings for
M weeks. did not end when the meas.
ure. IN Ito revamped form. passed the
senate. 1t merely marked the begin
ming OF the contest between the White
House and the opposition on Capitol
HIN.
The bill having passed the house
weeks ago. will now 30 back to that
BODY o concurrence In or rejection
OF the senate amendments. II the
house. ~ 10 expected. refuses to ac-
cspt the senate changes. the bill then
VIII be thrown into conference where
the real fight will be vaged.
A. 1t passed the house the food bill
had the approval Of the administra.
ton. A. 1t passed the senate 1t did
not.
Chairman Lever Of the house COM
mittee on agriculture. and Senator
Chamberlain, acting chairman Of the
senate committee on agriculture. who
will be the leading members of the
conference committee. both agree with
the president that one man should
have charge Of the food administra-
ton.
This augurs well for an ultimate
Wilson victory when the bill. as
agreed on in conference. goes back
to the two houses for final ratification.
Next to the food administration
clause. which centers around Hoover.
the big difference between the senate
and house bills Is the section dealing
with the prohibition question.
The house. after a bitter fight.
placed an inhibition upon the manu-
facture OF all alcoholic liquors except
ing only wines, during the period OF
the war. Beer was barred as well as
whisky in the house bill. The senate
eliminated beer and wine from the
house provision, leaving the ban only
upon distilled liquors.
Anti-Saloon League leaders. who
were largely responsible for the dras'
tic prohibition feature of the house
bill, have virtually agreed for the
present not to press the fight on the
brewing and wine industries. If they
do not jump rel the traces, the fndi'
cations are the senate liquor section
will be accepted by the house.

Baker says Such Units ~ Are Ready

will be sent to France in advance Of
the national army to Join the Ameri.

Pershing.
This program was announced by
Secretary of War Baker in the course
Of a letter made public at the war de-
partment. in which he stated the e a
son for the establishment of national
guard cantonments in the South.
The exact language used by Baker
in reference to this program IL a.
follows:
ut Is intended to send the national
guard. or such units thereof as are
properly equipped and trained, to Join
the American expeditionary force in
France before the additional forces au.
thourized by the act above (the selec-
tive draft law, now called the national
army, can be sent"
Baker also said: During the win.
ter, II not before. 1t is hoped that suffi.
cient tonnage will be available for the
dispatch Of most Of the national guard
to France"
In response to senate protests
against training of northern national
guardsmen in southern states, Secre-
tary Baker said the arrangement was
because Of climatic conditions.
There has been a great deal Of spec.
ulation as to the reason which i'm.
PEELED the war department to select
southern sites for the cantonments al
which the national guard and partic
ularly those OF its divisions from the
North were to be trained for service
at the front. Some criticism has beer
INDUCED In because Of the location o,
these sites.
Senator Weeks of Massachusetts,
however, says the explanation does no
carry reason OF weight, because tn,
northern states could have furnished
camps at no expense to the govern
ment and thus kept their troops clos
at home and their families.

Up to Exemption Boards
The boards now will be left with

The government has nothing TO do
with exemptions. The law specifically
provides that. Soldiers will be made
out Of civilians by civilian boards. men
Of their own kind. Other civilian
boards will serve as courts OF appeal
There are 1855 of these appellate
boards.
Indications here were that fewer
exemptions will be asked than was
anticipated.
The margin estimated by the gov
eminent is only q little over 100000
men out Of the 10000. 900 drafted
and that is too narrow to permit Of
widespread exemptions. The estimate
Is that 40 per cent OF the drafted force
will be eligible physically to serve.
Close Investigation Of Claims.
Claims of exemption for dependenc,
will be closely investigated. Affidavits
not only by the man making tn
claim and the dependent named viii
be necessary. but a third AFFIDAVIT
