in THE NAVY


Letters from local soldier boys are
Of intense interest to their friends
at home. and The Daily Leader Is
pleased TO reproduce the following
from Chester Il. Reynolds to his
father. w. II. Reynolds
Newport, r.. l., May 6.-Dear
Father: Well, | suppose you were
quite disappointed in me when |
Joined the navy, but you should not
be. although its tendency is the de
struction of our own human beings.
Casting that aside. il sure is a place
to learn TO take care of yourself and
TO stand up for your rights. You
are not limited to anything only
common %decency and that is the trou-
bic in life-you have so many priv
ileges that none of them are re-
spected.
Went TO Omaha and stayed only
one day and was shipped TO Chicago.
where we stayed about two weeks.
From Chicago we had a two days
trip here stopping at the largest
towns a few minutes. We are to be
held here for q days and are in
what they call detention. which is
ihC same DIS quarantine. We are 10
be moved to the other side of the isl
and today, having only stayed about
13 days i'm quarantine. When moved
we will enter school and will 90 to
school for about two months. The
regular school period is six months.
but everything is being rushed
through. If YOU are good at clerical
work you may stay only three weeks:
it all depends upon yourself. You
will be kept in school until YOU do
become efficient. so may be- here
three weeks and may be here three
months. | enlisted as a yeoman and
this class of men are far superior to
the common seamen. a fine bunch OF
young men, a great many of whom
left fine jobs to enlist. 1t rained
all day yesterday. but will clear up

all the committee. The question of "A
speaker was discussed, and ii was
decided to secure the very best
speaker for the occasion that can be
obtained. The whole committee is
investigating the matter. The must
cal people of the city will be invited
to appear on the program, and we
are assured good music for the day.
II was decided to ask some of our
readers to give patriotic readings.
Several other phases of the program
was discussed.
The n particular feature OF the
program that the committee wishes
to emphasize is the parade. II was
decided to ask all of the schools, so
c%ieties, clubs and other organizations
of every kind and description of the
city and county to participate in a
grand patriotic parade, with flags
streaming, banners displayed, pen
nants floating. the veterans of the
civil war riding in state in decorated
cars, and with all the people OF the
city and county marching to patriotic
music. Let us make this a day long
TO be remembered in the history of
our county.

HENKIN Wins LAWSUIT
HE DID NOT PAY THE PROVIDED
LICENSE-NOT GUILTY FOR
NOT PAYING 1T.

In Justice ~Sponholz's court today.
by a jury of his peers, charged by
VIM. Rowland as secretary Of the
Merchants association with violating
city ordinance No. 1913. Sec. 3. on
the count of doing a temporary mer-
camille business without paying the
license as therein provided and inn
posed. Joseph Henkin was tried and
found not guilty by six good men and
true. The trial lasted all morning.
The jury deliberated about fifteen
minutes, agreeing that the license of
$25 a day or $500 a month was eN-
orbitant and extortionate.
The ease arose as a result of Mr..
Henkin getting a stock of goods into
the city and advertising widely that
he would sell them at greatly re
duced prices. Merchants, provided
with a protecting ordinance. passed
some two years ago, and which is de-
signed to protect the local dealers
from the inroads of outside and wild
cat selling schemes of auction and
temporary stocks. through their To-
cal organization, caused Mr.. Hen
kin's arrest on April %. The trial of
the ase was put off from time to
time, being called this morning.
Upon calling the ease defendant de-
manded a jury. The sheriff impan-
elled one at once, Of six men.
Seven witnesses were called by G.
j. Porter. city attorney. conducting
the city's side of the case. The eX-
animation was wholly toward estab-
fishing the temporary character of
the business being conducted by de
PENDANT in First street SW. The
tenure Of occupation of the premises
was established. Sale OF certain
goods to other merchants was shown.
Clerks of the establishment testified
that new goods had been brought in.
Publishers of daily papers We're call
ed to verify the publication and i'm

view TO establishing a question OF
the permanency of the business.

/ Porter then addressed the jury. MAX.
ing il plain that the business was de
signed TO be but temporary, and
calling attention to the fact that il
was their one duty TO find whether
defendant had violated a city ordi
nance.

ridiculed the possibility that a iur,

unconstitutional. and reminded then
that il was their duty TO determine
whether Mr.. Henkin had violated til,
ordinance, regardless Of its effect.
After a deliberation of but a few
minutes the jury returned. anc

AGRICULTURAL LEADERS
ARE MUCH NEEDED

"In Canada it is everywhere aa-
mitted that mistake was made IN
letting the agricultural colleges
stand almost empty" says.-s proni-
nent agriculturist from this country
who recently visited there. Canada
realizes that it needs leaders in ag-
riculture more than ever now and IN
the years to come, on farms, in
schools, and in experiment stations,
and that it can train them best in
agricultural colleges. 1t is bending
every effort to refill it's agricultu-
raj colleges and is succeeding. These
are distinctly the days of science
in agriculture. We cannot hope to
get what we need to get from our
soil and our animal industry with
out applying science to our work.
The farmer of the future cannot
meet the nations needs unless he is
thoroughly trained to do So"

thirteen times the average cost per

The United Food Administration

Louisiana is one of the nation't most
valuable sources of supply. Louis
lana has raised number of the
crops in great immediate demand,
but was hampered by the distribn-
tion by the lack Of transportation
facilities. John n. Parker, Food
Administrator for Louisiana laid the
situation before Mr.. Hoover and re-
ceived reply that the laatter

One of the main Louisiana com
mod:tles that is being clamored for,
especially in the East, is sugar. The
national capital itself was one Of
the first victims of the famine, aal
the sugar people grasped the coop
erative and advertising value cf the
opportunity and rushed two or three
carloads to Washington without wait
ing for orders or sales. The indus
try has much reason to be thankful
for having accepted the advice to or
ganize and stabilize the policy hay-
ing resulted in better prices for the
crop and more favorable position in
national consideration than would
otherwise have been secured or pos-
sible.

UNITED STATES ADMIN
ISTRATlON SAYS

The revolution fn Russia was a
food riot wherein the violences of
starving thousands were seized upon
not by the moderates of the country
for progressive development Of
government and continuation in war
but by the radical and pacific ele-
ments, and We see unfolding before
our eyes at least the temporary pa
ralysis of an ally. If through any
failure of ours we should bring
about this situation among our wes-
tern allies or among our own people
there will rest upon US the RESPONSE
bility for failure of civilization and
larger than has ever
rested upon nation.

Women May Register
And Sign Food Pied
ges Saturday

For the benefit of those women
who did not register and sign food
pledges on Registration Day, Mrs.
W. B. Reed, Chairman of the local
Committee of the Women's Council
of Defense, will have all arrange
ments made to register those who
call at the City Hall Saturday, No
vember oath, between the hours of
8 a. m. and 7 p. m. All women are
now familiar with the fact that to
register is not to bind themselves to
service of any kind. 1t is for the
purpose of recording the woman
power Of the country and to make a
survey of work for which every
woman is trained or adapted.
Every woman should register and
sign food pledge cards. The sien-
ing of food pledge cards and the
carrying out of the pledge will go
far toward helping to win the war.
Every loyal woman wants to help
and every woman is loyal. The reg.
istering and the signing of food
pledges is privilege and a duty. In
order to make the registration in
this territory complete the few WON
en- who have not registered will be
given the chance to do 80 Saturday.
Any woman who is i'll may be regis
tered in her home but the commit
Tee is not permitted to register
women outside the appointed booth
1nder any other circumstances.
