ants of Deserters and Tories,

Raleigh, N. c., May 8.-The jack
son county deserters who have been
hiding out in the mountains have
sent word to the authorities in
charge of the draft law in that coun-
ty that they are willing to surrender
and come in, according to Governor
Pickett. who has just returned from
a speaking engagement in Jackson
county.
1t is an interesting fact in connec-
tion with the desertions in the noun
tains OF Western North Carolina that
in a majority Of the cases the mon
who have deserted are the sons of
fathers who deserted or lodged duty
in the War Between the States and
members of families and descendants
of men who were Tories in the Revo-
luton. This fact has been establish

OVER 5Oo,oO TROOPS IN FRANCE
Forecast Been Exceeded-.No
Shortage In Machine Guns.

Washington, May 9.-More than
half a million American soldiers
have been sent to France. Secretary
Baker yesterday authorized the
statement that his forecast to Con-
gress in January that 100000 troops
would be dispatched to France early
in the present year had now been
surpassed
Mr.. Baker dictated the following
statement:
''In January | told the Senate COM
mittee that there was strong -likeli-
hood that early in the present year
that 100000 American troops would
be dispatched to France. l cannot
either now or perhaps later discuss
the numbcr Of American troops in
France, but l am glad to be able to
say that the forecast I made in Janu-
ary has been surpassed"
AS the result of a personal investi-
cation OF machine gun production
during the past few days, the Secre-
tary announced that there Is no pres
ent shortage OF light or heavy types
of these weapons either in France or
America, and no shortage Is in pros
pect.
Mr.. Baker said there had been no
question as to the supplies Of light
type Browning guns, which were
coming forward in quantities. He
would not say whether shipment OF
these gums to France had been start
ed. AS to the heavy Brownings, he
said some have been produced and
there Is every indication OF forthcom-
ing production in increasing and
substantial numbers.
The Secretary chose his words
about the troops in France with ut
most care. He would not amplify the
statement in any way and specifically
asked that the press refrain from

Who Is Uncle Sam i?
(Greenville News.)


The children in school room
were reporting their experience with
Thrift Stamp selling. The teacher
was making an English lesson out of
the telling Of their stories.
One child varied the monotony
One lady told me she wasn't going
to buy Thrift Stamps. She was
going to let Uncle Sam run this war
and pay for running It,"
The teacher did not hesitate.
"Will you please go back to that
lady," she said, "and tell her very
nicely and politely, of course. that
your teacher told you to ask her,
who is Uncle Sam?'"
It's a question well worth putting
not only to those who seem Il lit
tie disloyal, but to ones own self
It's so easy, when things go wrong,
to put the blame on some impersonal Il
agency, such as the government or q
political party--Or upon Uncle Sam
And who is Uncle Sam? And who
runs the government in democracy?
