VIRGINIA LEAGUE MAY

President W. II. Bradley Will Call
Club Owners and Decide Whether

Although no definite plans have
been formulated for the operation of
the Virginia League during the
season of 1919. w. B. Bradley, presi-
dent of that organization. stated last
night that meeting of the club
owners probably will be called next
month. When and where the meet

Unsettled conditions of the country
make it impossible at this time for
the president to state anything
definite and the league officials will
wait until after the peace cloud is
cleared up. Richmond and Peters

hackers of the clubs in both these
towns have made this known to the
president
Club owners of Norfolk and New

in Peoria, Ill. several weeks ago,

Some were in favor of starting and
some were not. This was before the

very little was done at this confab.

install BIG MACHINE TO
PRESS TIRES ON TRUCKS
ROse.Nepple Auto Co. Adds Equip
ment for Benefit of Local
Truck Owners.

Olympia and ThurstOn county
owners of big auto trucks, who have
heretofore been compelled to go to
Tacoma when new tires had to be
pressed on their machines, will be
pleased to hear that the Rose-Nepple
Auto company of this city has in
stalled big press of 200-ton pres
sure, for removing and installing
solid tires on trucks.
Announcement of the acquisition
of the new machine is made by the
company this week with the state
ment that it feels the $500 invest
ment required is warranted by the
large number of trucks now being
operated in this territory and that
the owners of these machines will be
greatly benefited by being able to
have such work done here.
For the past year Olympia has
been the only city of it's size in this
section of the state without such
equipment, according to Ed Nepple,
junior member of the firm, and the
firm believed it to be high time the
city came up to standard. The big
press is installed in the company's
new machine shop, adjoining the
rear of its garage, and is now in OPP
GRAFTON.

INDUSTRIAL DRAFT
DOOMED BY WILSON
PRESIDENT SAID TO DISAPPROVE
PLAN TO REGISTER ALL MEN
FROM 10 TO As.

WASHINGTON. May Sit is be-
lieved the plan to effect complete in
dustrial mobilization through an
amendment to the draft act, which
would register all men between the
ages of Is and As, has been definitely
disapproved by President Wilson.
1t is said to be his view that the
sentation, and would be heralded in
some quarters as an instrument of
oppression. While it is felt by many
that some radical step must be taken
before the war has progressed much
further to prevent decentralization
of industry, it is the consensus of
opinion in administrative circles that
the country is not yet ready for SO
drastic law as that proposed.
The projected scheme would place
in the hands of the military authori-
ties unprecedented power over the
industrial life of the country.
This would be regarded by many
as an abridgement of civil rights and
would at once draw the fire of those
who are jealous of the encroachments
of military power.
In some quarters the plan has
already been discussed as one calcu-
lated to place in military hands a
weapon to break strikes and put
down industrial disturbances. This,
it can be said, was never an object of
the authors of the idea. 1t is regard
ed as practically certain no such rad
ical amendment will be incorporated
in the draft law.

FORTY EIGHT SENATOR'S

Washington, November 7.-With the Michigan and Idaho senatorial contests still in doubt, late returns from Tues days elections tonight give the re- pub licans a total of AS senators-just half the membership and lacking one vote to secure control--and 46 to the democrats.
 In Michigan the republican candi- date, Truman H. Newberry. was re- ported to have increased his lead to about $500 votes over Henry Ford, with 125 precinct records missing. In Idaho |the democrat candidate, Senator Nugent, was reported to have an increase of 2400 votes of Senator Goodin, the re- publican candidate.
 Closeness of both Michigan and Idaho |contests upon which democratic and republican control of the Senate aiepends were regarded as giving prospect of official counts and possibly contests later in the Senate.

Washington, November T.-Secretary Lansing made public today a message to the German government, through against the reported intention of the German authorities in Belgium, to de- stroy coal mines upon evacuation. If the acts contemplated are acted upon, the message says, it will confirm tho "belief that the solemn assurances of the German government are not given in good faith"

If these acts, in fragrant violation of the declaration of Oct tober 20, are perpetrated, it will con- firm the belief that the solemn assur- ances of the German government are not given in good faith.
