Minneapolis, MINI, Aug. 13.-Until
Food Administrator Hoover, announces

an announcement would not surprise
milling men. Flour prices will be de-
termined on the prices set at that time.

MORE INFORMATION
ABOUT EXEMPTION
Local Boards May Approve
Claims But Cannot Take
Final Action

Portland, Or, Aug. 13.-It will not
be enough for local board to approve
a claim for exemption or discharge
from military service on the ground
that man has one or more persons de-
pendent on him.
If the local board approves the claim
the man asking exemption will still
have to run the gauntlet Of one of the
three district boards of the state And
these district boards indicated at their
recent meeting in Portland to formu-
late q policy that they will be very
strict indeed in their Interpretation Of
what constitutes a "dependent"
Emphatic instructions have been re-
ceived from Washington that every
discharge or exemption on the ground
of dependency granted by local board
must be appealed to district board.
This does not mean that some cases
of dependency win be appealed. 1t
means that all discharges or exemp-
tions granted by local boards on that
ground, must be appealed no matter
what the circumstances.
The official representative of the
government in each county, who in
most cases is the county attorney, will
make the appeals to the district boards
in bshalf of the government.
The regulations provide that he may
appeal discharges or exemptions grant
ed by local boards for other reasons
than dependency, but that he must,
without exception, appeal all those
granted for dependency.

San Francisco, Aug. 13.-More than
fifty more united railroads platform
men have signed the pledge not to re
avme work until wages are advanced
and hours of labor shortened, it was
announced early today by leaders of
the street ear men who are striking
here. Twelve hundred and fifty plat
form men will be on strike before tbs
day is over, they asserted, practically
tying up the United Railroads system.
Declaring this claim to be absurd,
officials Of the company expressed the
belief that not more than 200 employees
in all have quit their jobs. They said
the company is fully able to cope with
the situation and to maintain its ser
vice. They do not recognize that a strike
exists, asserting that the men have not
yet made any demands on the company.
This latter statement was confirmed
by strike leaders, who added that for
NAL demands would be presented dur
ing the day. In order to make show
of strength, the strikers announced that
they would hold parade this after.
noon after which they will hold mass
meeting to discuss the situation.
Aside from single clash between
police, company guards and strikers
early today, there has been practically
no violence. Strikers declared that the
only threatening attitude shown on the
cars still in operation has been display
ed by passengers, who tried to prevent
strikers from talking to working motor
men and conductors.

Number Of Pupils
Entering High Schools
Is Largely Increased

The annual reports of the county
school superintendent which are now
being filed with Superintendent of
Public Instruction J. A. Churchill show
a marked increase in the number of
pupils who enter high school, after hav-
ing completed the elementary grades.
Never before, in the history of the
state, have so many young people con-
tinued in school after passing the
eighth grade examinations. Mr.. Church
i'll believes that this change is being
brouqht about principally through re-
cent legislation providing free high
school advantages for all pupils, and
through the Standardization by the
state department. of education of all
the high schools, relieving the students
of paying tuition, and thus placing the
high schools in position to do their
work properly.
