ORGANIZED LABOR
 IS EMPHATIC ABOUT
 WORK OR FIGHT ORDER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2O-Organ- ized labor is emphatic in its oppo- sition to the work or fight amend ment included in the new man-power bill, extending the draft age. The opposition has been presented to the House military committee by Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor.
 Morrison declared that the provis- ions authorizing the withdrawal of deferred classifications from the men absent from work without cause amounted to conscription of labor in a covert way.
 He declared that these provisions were unnecessary. He suggested that special interests were secretly pressing antilabor legislation. Scores of protests have been coming in from labor unions.

HUNS DECLARE
 AMERICANS NOT
 PLAYING FAIR
Assert They Are Using BuCkshot in Cannon Contrary to Geneva
 Convention.

STOCKHOLM, Aug. 20. - German war correspondents report that they have inspected guns taken from an American regiment and found each gun carrying five cartridges loaded with buckshot
 They declared that the use of such guns is contrary to the Geneva con- vention.
 Shotguns are known to have been assigned to certain American troops. In fact, all of the armies are pro- vided with shotguns for police duty behind their own lines.
 It is contrary to the Geneva con vention to use shotguns in actual combat, and it is also contrary to the rules of the convention to make use of explosive bullets and liquid fire and gas, all of which the Ger mans first introduced and used in battle.

Cologne 0pines Allies Have Overestimated Strength of Germans Engaged
 in Battle.
USING WOUNDED MEN
Huns Shorten Leaves, Use Men Who Ought to Be in Hospital and Send
 Injured to Front.

LONDON, Aug. 20-It is the gen eral impression in official circles in Cologne that the Germans are weaker on the Western front than even the Allies claim, according to a dispatch from The Hague.
 In the Cologne district all leaves of absence" have been reduced one half. Men are being sent to the front from the hospitals before they are fit for military service.
 Letters from the front have been discontinued.
 Another indication of the shortage of man power, is the fact that de- serters are being sent to the front for punishment.
 From the camps of the wounded hordes of men are being hurried to the Western front with the ban dages still in place.
 The German army has reached the point where there is not always a man to take the place of the one put out of action, and their casual ties are therefore, becoming perma- nent losses.
 That the Germans are crowding every available man in the army from posts back from the front to the battle lines, and adding in every pos sible way to their fighting strength has been known for some time.
