ZIHLMAN VOTED RIGHT
Outlook Made Error in Recording
His Vote on War Measure

Congressman Frederick n Zihlman
is in receipt of a telegram from the
editors of the Outlook who omitted
his name in the list of members Of con-
gress who voted right on war measures.
The telegram follows:
1--WE have discovered that in our
second list of congressman who votes
right on war measures, your name was
inadvertently omitted. We are NORTH
ed at this bunder and shall make cor
rection IN the very next issue Of the
Outlook. You may make any use you
please of this telegram.
The issue of September 4, in which
the correction was made, carried the
following under the heading Voting
Wrong and Right.
ITO our modification, we fad that
drought inadvertence certain names
were omitted in our recent list of mem
bers of the 65th congress who voted
right On the declaration of war and on
the conscription bill. The members
omitted were Representative Bankhend,
of Alabama; Scott, of Iowa; Goodall,
White and Mersey, of Name; and Zihl-
man, of Maryland. Any one who as
sures that because of our regrettable
omission they voted wrong is greatly
mistaken; they have clean scores and
should be given credit for them.

PICKS CLASSES
FOR FIRST CALL
CrOwder Decides on 19 and 20 and
81 to &c.

Provost Marshall General Crowder
announced Tuesday that the first call to
the colors of men who register Tuesday
will include men in the 10 and 2O-year-
old classes and in the classes from 80 to
SO years, inclusive. missionaries will
go first to registrants within these
specified age limits. and local boards
will be ordered to classify them first in
readiness for calls beginning in Octo-
Der.
Young men in the 10 and 20-year
classes, General Crowder, said will be
accepted for induction into the Stu
dents Army Training Corps. but he
pointed out that the authorized strength
of this corps is only $50, 900 men, where
as the total number of registrants be-
low 20 will be over 1900, 900. The
General refused to discuss farther the
educational plans, saying they were not
within his province. He pointed out
that the total number of fit men which
he expected to be secured from the
classes oyer 80 was only COL. 900, and
repeated the statement that Glass l of
men now registered would be almost
completely exhaused by October l.
General Crowder also issued a general
appeal to employers to assist in the
presentation of claims for occupatlonal
exemption, and declared that this was
the UNEMPLOYED field of the new draft,
and that no estimates could be made as
to the number of men who ought to be
excluded from military service in the
upper age limits because of their &C.
cupatiou." Emphasizing the importance
to be attached to exemptions on the
occupational grounds. General Crowdel
appealed to employers and industrial
| leaders generally to make specia
study of their field in the light of the
draft requirements.
81 address to them the suggestion
that they charge themselves more
Systematically with this responsibility,
he said in pointing out that employers
should present for exemption claims fol
men who might through mistaken
chivalry" fail to claim exemption fol
themselves. At the same time, he said
his Suggestion had another phase, il
that careful examination of industry
might show some exemption claims tt
be unnecessary, and in this connection
he adds:
The needs of the military forces are
known and imperative. Any giver
quantity of deferments will ultimately
have to be made up by the depletion o,
some other occupation.

MILLION DOLLAR
BANKINOAKLAND
Garrett National Goes Over The
Top With Assets of a Million.

A million dollars of assets few years
ago for any one bank in the country was
heralded very widely. Even IN the
larger centres this piling up of money
under one roof and one management
was considered remarkable showing.
For bank located in town the size of
Oakland to have a million dollars of as
sets five or six years ago was consider
ed almost an impossibility. but this has
come to pass right here at home as will
be seen if one will refer to the state
ment of the Garrett National Bank
printed in another column of today's
Republican.
The bank since its establishment in
November, 1888. as state institution,
has been practically under the same
management. Its first statement,
printed in The Republican on December
3lst, 1889, showed loans and discounts
of S72,974 while its deposits amounted
to SS5. 1913 50. with a time deposit of
1870. Compare these figures with
those printed today and it will be seen
at glance that this bank has kept step
with the progress Of Garrett county.
1t was through the efforts of the late
Scott 7. Jones that the bank was
established nearly thirty years ago,
ever since which time it has been
solid and substantial institution as have
all the other banks of the county. In
the management of its affairs Mr..
Jones had as his able assistant the
present efficient cashier, Mr.. &. A.
Fraley who went to the institution as
a bookkeeper on October 81, 1889, when
just entering upon young manhood, To
its interests Mr.. Fraley has devoted his
entire time and energy as did his
predecessor, with the above result.
