He happens also to be chairman of the county supervis- ors and chairman of the community labor board, and before the evening was done he had been given still more responsibility as chairman of the new bureau.

 Based upon more than a wealth of official data and orders, there was much discussion concerning the part that the new bureau might play, the necessity that might prompt it's or ganiZation and the manner in which it should be organized and financed. In this there was participation by members of the county council, by Roy Goodrich of the Red Cross, Harry Welch of the chamber of commerce. 0. B.

Because, she says, she could not stand quietly by and hear the or ders of Herbert Hoover criticized, Aurora Sandstrom is out of a job.
 When she heard German backed up by an Irish maid employed by the Castle Hot Springs company rail at the food administration for it's scant allowance on sugar, Au- rora says she just couldn't stand it.

La Toilette Bill Defeated

WASHINGTON. Dec. 23.-Senator La Follette's revenue substitute bill. which would raise $6,743, ,000, 900. chiefly by increased rates and surtaxes, was lost, 55 to 6, after the author had spok- en for nearly three hours Senators vot- ing for it's adoption were Borah, Gron- na Norris, Nugent, Nardaman and La- Toilette.
 On a final vote of 4 to 22, the sen ate sustained it's previous action in ap- proving the committee amendment to repeal existing zone rates on second class mail, and substituting a rate of one cent pound, within 150 miles, and one and one-half cents. beyond.
 Senator LaFollette insisted that the American armies would not be demob- lllzed for many months and that their maintenance would require huge sums.
 Senator Smith of Georgia suggested that under the draft law the service of men called to the colors must end four months after peace is declared. Sen ator La Toilette replied that congress is too subservient' that if the admin istration should use American forces abroad against nations with whom war has not been daclared, congress would vote money for such military opera tions.
 The senate rejected an amendment by Senator Pollock of South Carolina. extending the thanks of congress to the members of the district and local draft boards and authorizing the sec retary of war to present them with bronze medals
 An amendment by Senator Jones of New Mexico, permitting any taxpayer who is head of family, to deduct from his gross income the amount. not ex ceeding $1,000 paid by him annually as rent on his residence, also was re- jected.

war, as volunteers or in the draft, but that only a few hundred might be ex- pected to seek the assistance of the new bureau. Only a few thus far had made known their need of positions.
 Fear Influx of Strangers.
 There was agreement that the greatest problem would not lie with the local men who return, but with the probable influx of men from other states and localities, many of them coming for climatic reasons, with a large percentage broken in health and presenting a phase of the work that possibly best can be covered through the Red Cross.
 Thus far it was reported, the em- ployment service is keeping well up with it's demands and can place many more men for the mines and in agri- culture and in most of the trades There may be an overplus of men who want light employment, as timekeep- CTS, bookkeepers, etc. Already there has come the vanguard of the usual winter influx of artisans and even ranch hands from the far northern states, constituting a floating class that is not seeking steady work.
 It was appreciated that such condi- tions should not be permitted to in terfere with the plans for especially considering returning soldiers and sailors, though there might be com plication in the consideration of strangers who had had service from other states.
 Protect Local Men?
 MT. Moore stated his belief that To- cal men should be protected from out side competitions that outside men should be provided for in their own homes and that development of em- ployment should be along the essen- tial lines of agriculture and mining.
 MT. Brown was the author of the motion that the soldier employment question should be placed upon the community labor board. and there was TO dissenting voice. This board will meet very soon and is expected to ap- point manager and an advisory com mittee and to make its plans for work that may continue the larger part of the coming year. Possibly headquart- CTS will be established with the em- ployment service, for better co-ordi- nation of effort.

AMERICAN EARLY BIRDS
KEEP HUN FL|ERS BACK
With Supremacy in Air They Leave
for Battles Before SunriSe.
Active Until Dark.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
NORTHWEST OF vERDUN. October
(Friday), (by the Associated Press).
American aviators, having estab-
lished supremacy in the air in spite of
the strong German concentration OF
airplanes in this sector, recently orig
mated plan for twilight flying. Pur-
suit planes now leave for battle be-
fore sunrise, returning during the day
for gasoline and oil. and resume their
attacks until 1t is too dark to see.
Airdromes are illuminated by flares
and searchlights and the aviators re-
ceive signals by colored rockets which
can be seen for six miles. When ap-
preaching their bases they fire lights
which are answered from the ground.
indicating whether any special cir
drome is their home station or that
OF another squadron.
Landing is difficult feat for pur-
suit planes. but SO far only five OF
the group of more than a hundred
have turned over and there have been
~ casualties. Morning flights have
inspired the American soldiers and
prevanted the Germans from getting
q start across the line. Night ny
ing has accounted for thirty or forty
German balloons. The enemy avtators
have been kept farther behind thei!
lines than before and have been forced
to get up early and retire late.

Merry U. S. Filler "PUTS
ONE OVER" ON GERMANS
Forced Down Behind Enemy's
Lines, He Quickly Makes Repairs,
Reascends and Escapes.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
NORTHWEST OF VERDUN, October
4 (by the Associated Press).-With
his airplane riddled by machine gun
bullets and hemmed in by German
machines, Aviator Ted Haight of New
York city yesterday pretended to be
out of commission and landed within
the German lines. After hurriedly re-
pairing his damaged machine he as
cended and got back to his own lines,
successfully lodging the astonished
Germans on the ground and in the
air.
Haight was in a group of airplanes
protecting American observers beyond
the American lines. He was attacked
by the Germans and thirteen machine
gun bullets penetrated various parts
of his airplane, three of them striking
the propeller. The GermanE circled
around him to prevent him from
reaching his own lines. Haight de-
scended quickly and landed in a field
behind the German line. The German
airmen apparently took it for granted
that Eaight was out of commission
and left his capture to the men on the
ground.
One bullet had severed battery
wire in Haight's machine. This was
quickly repaired and before the Ger
man foot soldiers could reach Haight
he had assembled and was making for
the American lines. The German air
planes pursued him, but were not
quick enough to catch the fleeing
American.

Fairness in Promotions.


In tonight's Star David Lawrence is
quoted in his article commenting on
an article credited to Col. Roosevelt,
as follows: 1.-THE privates overseas
are being commissioned as fast as
they can be. and the men who go to
France cannot be said to have been
given the preference any moro than
the men who went to Plattsburg and
other training camps" It is true that
commissions were won by hard work
at the training camps, but to what
avail in the cases of the 5000 provi-
siona1 second neutenants who have to
wait two years to know If their COM
missions as second lieutenants are to
be confirmed?
Thousands ofecivilians proceed from
civilian life upward to majors, lieu
tenant colonies and even brigadier gen.
erals, while these unfortunate men
are shaking in their boots and spend
ing their energy training newcomers
who pass along over their heads and
obtain high rank simply because they
know how to pull the right strings.
