old French line that ran along the Aisne
canal from Berry-au-Bac to the region
OF Rheims. Possession OF this strong po-

CONSCRIPT DOLLARS
AS WELL AS WORKERS

WASHINGTON, April 25.-ln a
speech before a national organization
of platform lecturers, A. f. Of L.
Secretary Frank Morrison took the
argument of labor conscriptionists
and applied it to themselves. He
declared that if it is necessary for
the nation to live, organized work
ers will accept the governments die
tum that everything shall be thrown
into the common lot, with every cit
izen placed on soldiers rations.
"The trade union movement OPP
poses the CONSUMPTION of labor un-
less wealth is likewise conscripted,"
he said.
"The claim that labor should be
conscripted on the same theory that
the country drafts its citizens for
military purposes is not a correct
comparison The government CON
scripts its citizens for service, the
employer would conscript for ex-
ploitation.
Courts have repeatedly drawn a
sharp line between civilian and mill
tary life, and while in theory no
one can deny the governments right
to draft any citizen for any purpose

c. {. CALENTINE
INVESTS IMPROVED
AUTO FUSE PLUG

c. c. Calentine, manager Of the
Calentne Auto Shop has given the
world another useful appliance to
the automobile in the invention Of
an improved fuse plug.
Mr.. Calentine, like every one who
uses electricity, has been left in the
dark at times when the fuse plug
blows out. SO he got an idea that
instead of throwing them away as
soon as one blew out, there should
be some way to increase its life.
1t didn't take him long to work
out a scheme whereby six fuses
could be put in each plug.
With a little wheel placed at the
end where now the bit of isinglass
is used, his device provides for turn
ing a little switch one-sixth the dis
lance of the circumference where the
switch makes connection with the
next fuse. Each plug therefore be-
comes a six in one.
Mr.. Calentine has applied for pat
ents on the device and will go east
in a few weeks to take up the ques-
ton Of its manufacture He says it
can be produced and sold for from
% to 80 cents each, where the pres
ent ones cost Is cents apiece.
