of goods-the finest merchandise in our

A pressing need exists in the army
for men experienced in handling
mules, and before all future needs
are met recruiting campaign may

been experienced in getting men who
can buy and handle horses, but black
smiths are scarce.
There is constant demand for
butchers, and cooks are greatly need
ed. In several technical branches,
particularly the Engineers, men for
the higher positions are plentiful but
the workers for the ranks are scarce.
Experienced mechanics, especially
those familiar with automobiles are al
ways in demand.
More interpreters than can be. used
have applied for positins with the
WarDepartment, and applications for
commissions as Army chaplains are
also in excess of the need. The ex-
cess totals thousands in each case
Clerks for general work are plenti-

FAIRMONT, June "a. c. Bee
son, -Four States Coal Operators
Committee Of the Central w. Va. Coal
Operators Association, has called a
meeting Of that Committee to con-
slider plans for increasing the eficien-
cy of the mines in the Fairmont dis
trio. The idea is to work out methods
of too natured rivalry among miners,
to insure cooperation among mine
officials and mine workers, and to
organize the most efficient service
possible to give with the idea of get
ting out the coal possible with the
coming of a good car supply.
The plan is to have meetings at
Fairmont ,Clarksburg, Morgantown
and Elkins at which foreman and free
bosses and other officials will be in
vited, the purpose being to emphasize
the Importance Of putting the mines
on the most efficient basis possible.
There will be an effort to work up in
terest on the part of the men to such
an extent that there will be no Iikeli-
hood of a man laying off on day
when there is a good car supply
The fact that the car supply has
not been good in the Fairmont dis
trict will not be permitted to lessen
the enthusiams of co-operators, mine
officials and mine workers for it is
being emphasized that the country
needs every tons of coal that can pos
sibly be mind and that in the event Of
4 100 per cent. car supply the mines
must be so handled as to turn out al
the coal that it is possible to mine.

SEVERAL SHIPS ARE

Radius of About 100 Miles on
New York City

NEW YORK, June 1.-The OPEN
ing Of Germany's direct naval var
fare with the United States has been
signalized by the sinking of more
than American vessels off the North

sent to the bottom by one or more
German U-boats in waters within
radius of about 100 miles off New

Thwarted in their search for major
prey-American transports--th leu
ton sub-sea craft launched an attack

NEW b. & o. MANAGER

BALTIMORE Md, May 31.-The
order appointing Arthur w. Thomp-
son vice president Of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad as the federal dir
ector for the Eastern division Of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad outlines
his jurisdiction as embracing the
main line and branches of the Balti-
more & Ohio east Of Parkersburg and
Pittsburgh, including the terminals
in those cities and at the seaboard.
This places under his management
as chief operating officer the line to
this city and to Philadelphia, togeth-
err with the vast terminals the COM
pany operates in these cities as well
as those it owns and controls in New
York and on Staten Island. The
Baltimore and Ohio reahes New
York from Philadelphia over the Read
ing and New eJrsey Central. Mr..
Thompson will have nothing to do
with these connecting lines.
Mr.. Thompson said today that the
acceptance Of the place under the
government automatically removed
him from the control of the board
Therefore, any letter Of resignation
he may send will only be perfume
tory act and may not be even necess-
airy.

LONDON, June 1.-Plunging south
ward, with it's momentum still I'm,
spent, the German war machine has
driven it's wedge into the Allied lines
along the front until it's apex has
reached the Marine river, south of
Fereen Tardenois. The desperate eff
forts of the French and British to
stem the tide against the invaders
has served only to slow down the
rate o. speed of the German advance;
the defenders of the heights north
Of the Marine seem to have been
swept aside in the rush of the enemy
toward the road to Paris
Aside from the movement of the
German armies southwark, two other
significant incidents of the tremend-
Gus battle have occurred. One is that
tie Germans have extended their at
tack to the northwest, along the
Ailette river, from which the French
have fallen back for some distance.
The other is that the battle has ex-
tended to the east of Rheims, which
which city, during the first few days
Of the battle, formed the extreme
eastern end of the line of battle
Along the sides of the salient form
ed by the rapid German advance to

RED LAKE SITUATION

The influenza situation at Red Lake is much improved at this time. There have been in all 80 cases, most of which are entirely recovered, and no new cases, developing There are three serious cases reported which are receiving medical at tention.
 Dr. Mary Neff visited Red Lake soon after arriving here, and appointed Mrs. Betty Mur- phy in charge of the work to control the epidemic there.
 Mrs. Murphy has worked constantly, since then, making two daily trips thru out the val ley, visiting patients, securing medicines and often personally caring for the cases. But one case developed pneumonia, MT. Boiett, son of M. D. Boiett, and was in a critical condition when Dr. Rounseville was called. He found the patient near death, but revived him, and hopes for a recovery. Mrs. Murphy, who was in town yesterday, stated that there are two more severe cases in the valley, for whom she wanted medical aid.
 The county is providing for a daily trip to Red Lake to take out necessary supplies.

Why Labor is Opposed to 100. Continued

10. This Is No Compensation Law. The amount to be paid under the proposed law is ridi- cuolus. Illustration: A man losing a leg, having wife and small children dependent upon him, will receive Two-Thirds pay for about three years, or to be exact for twelve hundred fifty days. What then? Who then will purchase the bread and butter for his infants?
 II. The proposed law is not compulsory and step back ward in the interest of Big Blu siness. It leaves it to the discre- tion of the employer to come under it's provisions. Should a commission be appointed that was not acceptable to the big interests, the employers would remain Outside of the Law and offer to pay compensation di- rect to the injured worker in the same amount as fixed by the law. Should the worker refuse to accept the meagre compensation so offered, he would be barred from court and could not maintain an. action for damages. In no event could an action be brought in court ex- cept under the old English com mon law, which has been repu- diated by England itself, and the Amount Recoverable would be limited to the small amounts fixed by the proposed law. In other words, the Corporations of Arizona are trying to return us to the old common law ill force before the Revolution, and then limit the amount un- der that ancient law, and DO AWAY With the Good Work of the Arizona Constitutional Con- vention. The proposed law re- esta blishes the defenses of "fel- low servant doctrine, 'assump- ton of risks'', "contributory ne- gligence" and all other tricks of the corporation legal pettifog-
 ger and shyster. Adv
