ONLY SEVENTY-ONE
LEFT IN CLASS ]
After the Present Calls on Vermont
Have Been Filled New Registrars
Will Be Summoned.

BARRE, June 2S-When the regis |
trants have responded to the two calls |
i'll which the state of Vermont has |
been asked to send into service there
will be but II men left for general !
service in class / in the state. These
are so scattered that they are of little
avail in the coming call for mechanical
training men,, so that some of the
young men who have recently become
81 years of age will be given a chance,
if they had grammar school educa
ton, to 90 to Burlington on July Is in
the call for mechanical training. If
they volunteer, which chance has been
offered them, they will get state pay.
This opportunity was offered the regis
trants of the old draft, but they fell
short 1S9 of meeting the requirement, so
that some men will have to be drafted
to fill the quota of 365 from Vermont.
Although 176 persons have volun-
teered, Gen H. T. johnson had to make
up a quota for each county, but those
| counties in which many men have self
indicted will not be hit hard, although
it would at first so appear. For in
stance, Washington county is called up
on for 65 men, and 80 of these have
volunteered. From the county quotas
given below take the number of men
who have self indicted and the net
number of men that will have to re-
spond to the call is obtained, namely,
Is in Washington county.
The quotas are: Addison 10, Ben
nington 20, Caledonia %, Chittenden
45, Essex 5, Franklin 10, Grand Isle 4,
Lamoille 10, Orange 10, Orleans 20,
Rutland No. | So, Rutland No. II,
Washington, 65, Windham 80, Wind
: sor %, so that Rutland, where there has
been a very small self induction is hit
e hardest in the state.
/ The self-induction that has taken
: place in some of the counties in the
above call has its effect on the coming
4 call for 205 men to 60 to Camp Devens
+ which was also mailed to the county
e boards this morning. In this list Els
a sex county, with the single exception OF
Rutland county, is hit hardest. Add
t son, Chittenden, Grand Isle, Lamoills

a are Bennington 33, Caledonia 6. Esse,

When these men have gone and i
there is no other call in July for me-
from Vermont, the state will have fur

POLITICAL TRUCE

Conference Decides 1t Shall
No Longer Be Recognized

PLEDGES UNITY IN
SUPPORTING WAR
No Rebuilding of Industrial Life Until
Militarism Is Crushed, Declares the
Presiding Officer-Sweden Leaning
Towards Allies.

LONDON, June 2S-The British Labor
party, at its conference held here,
adopted a resolution to the effect that the
party political truce, which has been in
effect in Great Britain since early in the
war, should no longer be recognized
Delegates representing l,704000 votes
favored the resolution, while representa-
tives of 9l5, 900 votes were against it.
Arthur Henderson, former member OF
cabinet without portfolio, in moving the
resolution that the political truce should
no longer be recognized, said that if the
resolution were read along with the con
text it could have no other meaning thar
that the truce should no longer be rec
ognized regarding by-elections.
There had been no signed truce be
tween the Labor party and the govern
ment since David Lloyd George cam,
into power, Mr. Henderson continued
as the government desired to includ
words which the Labor party would no
| accept. A change had come about, how
ever, owing to the action of certain
parties in by-elections, the speaker dc
clared He had hoped, he said, that tn
old truce would be continued, because
was much better on the whole not to cor
| test by-elections. The executive of til
party, Mr. Henderson added, was of til
! opinion that the Labor representative
should not be withdrawn from til
/ government.

that the family had lived there for
many generations back, and had no

years in America. This statement was

PRICE WILL DECREASE


 By compelling all who mill grains used as substitutes for wheat flour to make regular reports to the United States Food Administration, the price of these substitutes, it is announced, will be materially decreased and those who might be inclined to engaged in profiteering in this particular com modity will be given prompt attention by state food administrators.
 Ever since the people of the United States were asked to eat their flour on the 50-50 plan, millers of substi- tutes and those who later handled these products, it is charged, have been reaping more than the "fair margin of profit" the government de- clared shoulud be reealized. The in crease in price became so noted as to call from Herbert c. Hoover, national food administrator, a stinging re- buke, and the United States Food Administration has resolved that millers' reports are necessary to

ON PUTTING THINGS OFF
There Are Times When Waiting a Little While Helps Whole
 Lot.
BUY W. s. s

"Procrastination never got anybody anywhere, but" said Mir. Gratebar, "there are times when putting things off bit helps lot, as, for instance, in the matter of answering certain letters.
 "I get once in while letter that is cross, i'll tempered, sarcastic or that maybe sets up some proposition that the writer himself would have known wouldn't hold water if he had stopped to think about it.
 Now, my natural inclination would be to answer that letter right away I could shoot his proposition full of holes easily and make it look foolish His sarcasm I could answer much more bitingly. But what I do now in my somewhat riper years is to smile and say to myself:
 "'What's the use?'
 "What I do now before answering such letter is to wait day, to sleep on it.
 There's a habit that it would be worth any mans while to cultivate. Sleeping on it will iron the wrinkles out of any sort of trouble, solve for us any problem; it soothes and clarifies. It brings back our courage and our sense of humor. And then, in the morning, when I come to answer that letter l answer it in spirit that makes not an enemy but friend.
 "This sort Of putting things off I don't call procrastination it is just waiting a little to give all hard feel Ing time for evaporation"

maintain the price of wheat flour substitutes within the reach of the people.
 "There is no question as to the sup ply of substitutes" declares state ment issued from the office of the State Food Administration, land of ficials in Washington will keep them selves posted as to prices. When ever these prices are excessive they will be reported to State Administra- tors for immediate investigation, says a statement from the State Food Administration.
 Barley flour and corn flour should now be selling at the mill at 20 per cent less than the price of wheat flour, with rye at approximately the same price. The rice situation in Arkansas, considering the crop that is anticipated, should not make this feature difficult. Then, too, rice is being imported in large quantities which ought to reduce the price in this country"
 County Food Administrators are requested to call the question of price for substitutes to the attention of Suggestive Fair Price Committed where complaint is made that substi- tutes are higher in price than what is reasonably expected.

Lake Shore Railroad company were
engaged in cut-throat opposition. And
yet Mr.. Forbes was absolutely self
taught railroad manager and operator.
Commodore Vanderbilt taught, being
entirely self Instructed, the value Of
unification of railroad lines into one
continuous system, and fundamen-
tally, this unifieation reflects much
that Mr.. McAdoo will be compelled to
undertake.
Edward II. Hartman did not begin
his active railroad career until he was
30 years of age. His early business
career was confined to the banking
tured into the field of railroad con-
dentally. He had no training from
the ground floor up as a railroad man.
but he built up the Union Pacific sys-
tenn with which his name will always
be identified. C. P. Huntington was
a storekeeper and had earlier been a
peddler when he undertook to construct
a railroad from California to the East.
He did construct it and then operated
1t. But he was self-taught The late
President Baer, who achieved sue
cesses with the Reading railroad
which commanded admiration, was
not trained as a railroad man but his
vocation was that of lawyer. He
went to the Reading railroad when he
was past middle age. As was said
this morning. ''it is all in the man"
and there is no reason, judging from
precedent, why Mr.. McAdoo should
not succeed as director general of the
federalized railroad unit OF the United
States, although he has had little rail-
road training.
