 That in purchase of cheese there in division of territory and a joint manipulation of prices.
 That in tho purchase of butter, cream, poultry and eggs, there is d combination in the form either of the division of territory or price agree ments.

BRITAIN'S ARMY
 REORGANIZATION PLANS COMPLETE
Employment of Soldiers Returning to Civil Life Arranged--Plan of From Peace to War Big.

London, Nov. 25 Correspondence of The Associated Press)-The British government has completed it's basic plans for demobilization of the army and providing employment for the men whole sale business for four years has been war. It is calculated that 50 per cent of the men in the army will go back to their old jobs or have new ones awaiting them but taking care of the remainder even though every ounce of man-power will be needed after the war, presents a most difficult problem.
 It will be long tedious task to transform millions of men from khaki to civil life and must be done by degrees. By the plan agreed upon these degrees have been fixed upon the needs of industry with certain consideration being given to married men or those who may otherwise be needed in the home.
 The government has record of what each man is. best fitted for in civil life. The Ministry of Public Ser vice which has efficiently compiled this data has, together With other of- fcial agencies, prepared list of necessary industries in the order of what is deemed their importance The first few are called key" trades, many of which produce materials needed for use in other trades. The idea is that 1t would be useless to re- lease lot of structural steel workers ahead of the men who produce steel. The trades list is complete but will not be announced because of contro- versies it might arouse.
 The fact that g. man has job await ing him will not insure his early re- lease. The government would like to be rid of that class but it cannot han dle more than half the army at one time hence rigid adherence to indus trial needs. A soldier may be dia- mond setter with job to go to while his trench mate may be q railway brakeman without job. The brake man will be taken first and given an opportunity to go to work.
 It is reasonable to suppose that rail- way workmen, if not heading the 'key" list, are very close to the top of 1t and also that miners are we'll up. It is vitally necessary to demobiliza- tion plans to have the railways in running order and |, the miners are needed to increase the fuel supply for industries and home comfort. And so on down the long list until practically every recognized trade is included.
 When a man has been selected for discharge he will be sent to collect ion camp, the most of which of course will be in France. He will then be sent to distributing camp in Eng land where he will receive his allow ance for civilian clothing. He will be given months furlough which will mean that he will be on army pay while getting located in new work. From this stage the Minister of Labor assumes charge. He will have the aid and cooperation of local employ CTS, associations and labor unions. AL readp long lists of jobs open to sold- iers have been prepared. It remains for the government, employers and unions to get the job and the man to- gether.
