System of Bureaus, New Ma
tional Arrangement Planned.

To meet the rapidly increasing war
demand for labor new system OF
labor exchanges, to be known as the
war emergency employment service, is

ice section of the council of nationaL
defense.

ton, announces that all state councils
of defense had. been asked to form la
Dor exchanges in cooperation with the
federal department of labor. Many
shipyards were said to be- in need OF
workers, and in the near future the
need is likely to be felt equally by nu-
milton, steel, lumber, mining, transpor-
tation and all the other essential In
dustries.

A cheerina Word.

II somebody tells you that the aver
age life of an officer in the trenches is
nine days and that if your boy gets
into the front line he is certain to be
killed within two weeks, don't believe
him, says Milestones. He probably
got his information from German
propaganda, since our Teuton friends
seem bent on trying to brighten us out
of this war. no losses were more ex-
cessiye than those among the British
infantry officers during the first year of
the war, when they fought a losing
fight, without artillery support, and
insisted on exposing themselves in
conspicuous uniforms. The percentage
OF casualties among them for the first
year was 1873, according to the official
figures.
The percentage of casualties among
our allies has been decreasing. The
proportion for the entire French army
was 5.41 per cent in 1914, 4 per cent
In 1915 and 2.75 per cent for 1915. The
total for 90 months was little over u
per cent.

ALLY CAPTURE
OF CHAULNES
GIVES ELATION
Smashing Successes In Pi.
cardy Cause Optimism
in Washington.

Something more than optimism
was manifest last night at the War
Department.
The smashing successes OF Brit
ish and FrancO-American forces in
the Picardy region, together with
the fall OF Chaulnes. the important
railroad center. brought elation to
staff officers. Not only is the i'm
portant railroad between Chaulnes
and Montdidier in possession OF the
allies, but they practically control,
1t was said. another subsidiary
short-line road, terminating at
Chaulnes, which the Germans con-
structed last spring. This means
the eventual loss to the enemy OF
another supply line. and another
assurance that the menace to
Amiens is ended.
From a military standpoint, Ger
man arms face a more precarious
position each day Of the advance.
In the ability OF the British to con-
tinue their attacks rests the posz
sibilIty OF rolling back that part of
the German army that now eX-
tends from the sea TO the present
hghting area
Its retreat would mean q lessen
ing pressure on the channel ports
and a consequent increase in mo-
bility for the British. An American
stan officer commented on the pos
sibilitIes in this direction yesterday
as follows:
The strategy in this case would
be that Haig's advance would eX-
pose the right wing of the German
army. And this situation. in any
army. is extremely dangerous, for
IT allows the enemy the prospect
OF a flank attack"
